Lt. Col. Thomas E. Bearden

[American Dream]

I am curious if anyone here has an informed perspective on Bearden. Is he spreading disinformation, misinformation, incomplete information?

I don't have enough science to evaluate his technical presentation, but his resume certainly suggests he worked in a suspicious milieu...

Lt. Col. Thomas E. Bearden

US Army, Retired. Former Pentagon analyst

Web site

"He is President and CEO of CTEC, Inc., a private R&D corporation engaged in research on free energy devices and the mechanisms for interaction of EM fields and radiation with biological systems. He is president of the Association of Distinguished American Scientists (ADAS), a life member of the Alabama Academy of Science, and served on the Board of Directors of the U.S. Psychotronics Association and the American Association of Metascience. He edited and published Specula, Journal of the AAMS, for four years. He also served on the Board of Directors of Astron, Inc., a private aerospace R&D corporation in the greater Washington D.C. area, noted for its specialized RF antennas...He and his wife Doris live in Huntsville, Alabama where Tom is retired from aerospace, continues private research, and serves as a special consultant to industry on scalar electromagnetics processes" ( Virtual Times introduction)

"Lt. Col. Thomas E. Bearden is a nuclear engineer, war games and weapons analyst, and military tactician. He has an MS in nuclear engineering from Georgia Tech and is a graduate of the US Army Command and General Staff College and several US Army artillery and guided missile schools. He has over 30 years experience in air defense systems, technical intelligence, Soviet electromagnetic weaponry, artificial intelligence, computerized war games, and antiradiation missile countermeasures. He is a senior scientist with a large aerospace company [Colsa Corp.] Col. Bearden personally developed and published the basis for a drastic revision of electromagnetic theory and engineering, based on the work of Whittaker and Maxwell. His work is primarily responsible for the widespread interest and research into scalar electromagnetic phenomena in this country over the past decade."
(Megabrain report, 2/4/91)

Member: US Psychotonics Association Claims that Soviet psychic experiments have caused Legionnaire's disease, cattle mutilations, UFO abductions, and the sinking of the US submarine Thresher. Claims that these experiments have aroused mankind's collective unconciousness, called ZARG.

Many of his theories were published before retirement and are available through the Defense Documentation Center.

His views are supported by John Alexander.

After retirement, Bearden was contracted by the Pentagon to study the "photonic barrier modulator", "hyperspatial nuclear howitzer", and the connection between ESP and UFOs. [Note: McRae has since admitted to fabricating this last point, but much of the rest is verifiable elsewhere.] (McRae, Ronald, Mind Wars, St. Martin's Press, 1984, pp 126-9)

Friend of Ira Einhorn and part of his "psychic mafia". Presented a paper at the "Mind Over Matter" conference at Penn State University, late January, 1977, organized by Einhorn. Other attendees included Christopher Bird and Andrija Puharich. (Levy, Steven, The Unicorn's Secret, Prentice Hall Press, 1989, pg 189)

Bearden's later works have leaned away from psychotronics and towards free energy and the health effects of electromagnetic energy.

It is hard to determine what politics Bearden believes in, but he seems to believe in a conspiracy to suppress technological advances. "Personally, however, I believe that the accelerated time schedule for the "New World Order"-- now set for the year 2000 -- is as a result of the imminent advent of (1) superluminal communication (we at CTEC are going to file a patent on that as well), and (2) overunity electrical energy systems. There has to be almost a police state existing in the world, if this "new electromagnetics" is to be forcibly put back under control and buried. It appears now that such a police state is imminent, both here in the U.S. and worldwide. Let us hope that the conspirators fail, and that common sense somehow resurrects and stops that nonsense." (10/30/95 letter)

I don't trust Bearden at all, but et in Arcadia ego's distrust is much more informed than mine:

http://rigorousintuition.ca/board/viewt ... 2045#92045

And taking the liberty to quote et from this post:


I'm pretty confident that 'Scalar' is a real science. Matter of fact I know it is, because you can find many university discussions about it. Bearden, and following suit, Stevens, have taken the concept of the science, along with Standing Wave, and Tesla-based concepts, and run amok with them, making the technology appear completely rediculous while simultaeously leading inquisitive minds away from the US as the country developing it(Bearden will not say the word HAARP). Bearden has a....complex role that I don't fully understand; he's joined at the hip to Craddock who in turn is joined at the hip to Greer(cSETI), and they just run hog wild drumming up curiosity towards cancer/AIDS curing machines to Russian Scalar technology to making people fearful of Cell Phone towers(they started the rumor that the towers kill people existing in proximity to them) to witnessing UFOs in the beachfront property Craddock claims as his business address at La Jolla.

These people are multi-faceted and confounding to elicit true motives from. I get the impression they run around instigating fears in the extremely wealthy to earn their support in SDI-based research; Greer plays one card, and Bearden plays another, with Craddock in the middle as both of their's 'webmaster'.

Member: US Psychotonics Association Claims that Soviet psychic experiments have caused Legionnaire's disease, cattle mutilations, UFO abductions, and the sinking of the US submarine Thresher. Claims that these experiments have aroused mankind's collective unconciousness, called ZARG.

Tom Bearden explains his "ZARG" term in 2001. Several years before that, the "Zarg" had been a deadly alien predator in the Babylon 5 series, but prsumably has no conscious connection. Strangely enough, a google seems to show that no-one seems to have noted this Babylon 5 reference before, at least not in a way that would come up.


"The "Zarg" name has a humorous twist to it. I got tired of using the mouth-filling phrase, "Collective unconscious human species mind" over and over (things were done on a typewriter then!) and, since the phrase connotes a living being albeit of special kind, just named it "ZARG". That was a combination of "Zounds!" and "ARGHHH!" when I first realized that the human species itself was a living entity. "Cells" do not have to be close together in 3-space, if they are "linked" in multiply connected space, which a quantum potential does. And there is indeed a "species quantum potential" linking every human. It's just that biologists have never considered the quantum potential. Indeed, they haven't realized that their biogenesis experiments in the lab, were NOT done in the absence of living forms. The forms (technically the spacetime curvature engines) of every form of life that ever existed on this planet, is still here in every potential, in its internal Whittaker substructure still not utilized in classical EM though Whittaker did the decomposition of the scalar potential in 1903. In 1904 he showed that every EM pattern (such as a field or wave) can be decomposed into the dynamics of two scalar potential functions. Hence each of these two scalar potentials can be decomposed by Whittaker 1903, and voila! The form for every living cell, body, animal, and creature ever on this earth, is still present in every EM potential, field, wave, etc. on Earth, in space around it, within the Earth, and underneath and in the ocean.

So in the biogenesis experiments (e.g., Miller, Fox, and Urey), there was no such thing as "spontaneous" random occurrence of life-like organisms and compounds, as has been the interpretation of the scientific community. Instead, every potential in their flasks, the glass, the wood table, the "soup", in their own bodies and body EM emissions, whatever -- all contained the engines from such living forms. Inside all EM potentials, fields, and waves, there are the forms (templates) of living entities, always have been, and always will be. In a sense the entire universe is "alive" in that the dynamic forms of all life forms are already there in spacetime itself. By heating the "soup" in their flasks and treating it with UV, they also did a very nice thing: In an isotropic nonlinear medium, the individual frequencies overrun their form as a function of amplitude, break up, collapse, restore, etc. But the difference between any two frequencies moves through there as if a sine wave in a linear medium".

Bearden's "Zarg" predates Babylyon 5. I first read of it in Bearden's EXCALIBUR BRIEFING back in the late 80s. I believe it was first published in 1980.

It was even cited in this 1979 MUFON paper that you can download from this DoD military website:

A MIND/BRAIN/MATTER MODEL CONSISTENT
WITH QUANTUM PHYSICS AND UFO PHENOMENA

Thomas E. Bearden

Prepared for the 1979 MUFON Annual Symposium

...

If one accepts the existence of the collective human unconscious as a living biosystem, four-billion dimensional, then it is a living entity -- indeed, a great superentity, of which our own personal consciousnesses/personal unconsciousnesses are parts. Thus each of us is a cell in this great entity. Let us tentatively call it ZARG.
ZARG has unique characteristics. It is "unconscious" by definition, hence "sleeping."
Further, its "conscious mind" is fragmented into four billion pieces -- our own personal consciousnesses. In psychology, fragmentation of the conscious mind is technically 4 called dissociation, and severe dissociation classically defines psychosis. Thus ZARG may be considered totally insane.
As we stated, ZARG is multidimensional. ZARG's unconscious simultaneously receives and identifies four billion different conscious and unconscious perceptions. Just as the human consciousness, in identifying two slightly different two-dimensional visual patterns gains the third dimension, ZARG gains an additional "dimension" for every additional person past the first one. So ZARG is at least about 4 x 109 - dimensional.
Finally, it is well-known in parapsychology that the personal unconscious can affect matter; i.e., it can change spacetime itself, and we have shown a physical mechanism for this effect (kindling) in our model. Psychokinesis, poltergeist phenomena, etc. are direct examples. From equation (1) previously given, this effect increases exponentially as the number of stages or minds that are linked in an inceptive loop. Since ZARG has 4 x 109 linked stages, this m ns that its psychokinetic/materialization/dematerialization powers are at least some 1010 times as great as those of, say, Uri Geller when he is bending or breaking metal. Thus ZARG can pull the very stars out of orbit, disrupt the earth or solar system, stop the earth in its orbit, or even change the fundamental laws of nature itself. The physical universe, in our model, is quite literally simply thought that is common to all minds, hence to ALLMINDEDNESS or The Creative Mind, or whate'rer term one prefers to use for the Infinite. It is the fact that the thoughtform of the physical frame is prescribed and represcribed, over and over, that lends it its seeming "solidity" as compared to the phenomena existing in only a single consciousness mindworld. But the physical universe is totally mindstuff nonetheless; as such, it can indeed be changed by the proper resonance in a large number of stages, as given by formula (1).
Thus ZARG contains so many mindworlds/stages/dimensions that it has a very powerful part to play in the "reality" or type of functioning exhibited by this particular physical universe. Indeed, a large part of the physical laws of nature and the stability of this spacetime continuum is due to and prescribed by ZARG.
Thus anything which powerfully affects the multiplistic mind of ZARG can stimulate actual changes in our own physical reality -- essentially of any type and any degree, given a sufficiently strong stimulus.

Looking over this document I suspect that this is the ZARG portion of his Excalibur Briefing as it has all the same diagrams from the book.

Bearden is a point man for military tech disinformation.
He used to bolster the 'Team B' neocons hyping Unseen! Mysterious! weaponry by those oh-so-dangerous Soviets.

No, there's no such thing as "scalar weaponry."
No, the Soviets did not master 'Tesla' tech.
'Scalar' was a term hijacked from cognitive science studies used for psyops.

Misdirecting people away from the history and science of surveillance and psyops is the purpose of much paranormal/psychic literature and its mouthpieces.

Much of what Bearden (and Dean Radin) writes about is misdirection away from the CIA's use of satellite surveillance ("remote viewing") and psychological operations ("remote influencing" OR "ZARG") by reinforcing the mystical idea that 'people are just like that so don't think there's propaganda or any conspiracy to influence you.'

OR...'aliens did it.'

Pure bullshit with a scientific accent, just like Dean Radin, Russell Targ, and the woo coming out of SRI and the Institute for Noetic Science.

Bearden is part of the same CIA psyops strategy that has Steven CIA Spielberg putting out movies about UFO's and poltergeists to plant superstition in children's minds to exploit when they are adults.

Yeah, there is some Pure Bullshit here alright ... but I'd sooner trust Dean Radin than you with my bullshit detector.

[Avalon]

Thanks for the further information and context of the ZARG concept, SMiles.

[professorpan]

Yeah, there is some Pure Bullshit here alright ... but I'd sooner trust Dean Radin than you with my bullshit detector.

Hugh, the word "scalar" is used in mathematics and physics -- it wasn't "hijacked from cognitive science studies used for psyops."

It's easier to cry "woo" than to take the time to examine the many studies supporting the existence of psi.

[Hugh Manatee Wins]

....

Yes, I know it is a common adjective in science.

I think it was picked as a disinfo military term because it just "sounded so scientific" and kind of like "nuclear."

But since much woo is a mirror misdirection away from psyops I think it likely that the term was noted and taken from Gibbon's 1977 'scalar expectency theory' having to do with the timing of decisions.

It's easier to cry "woo" than to take the time to examine the many studies supporting the existence of psi.

No, it's easier for you to dismiss me than to take the time to examine the many studies supporting the existence of misdirection psyops.

But if you want to join the Aliens and Nostradamus Club, go right ahead.

That's interesting.

You don't know me but I can't imagine why anyone would trust Dean Radin.

[elfismiles]

.....

That's interesting.

You don't know me but I can't imagine why anyone would trust Dean Radin.

Because I've read, researched and investigated parapsychology all my life.

Because I've met and had lunch and spoken with Dean and Hal and others whom I trust.

Because, as much as I think you are on to something important with your KH work, you have yet to satisfy my scientific curiosity with proof of your claims.

Because I've researched the science of parapsychology and the claims of Dean and Hal and others and found them to be valid science.

And that's not to say that there is nothing to what you are suggesting regarding this thread ... you've just not proven it to my satisfaction.

[Et in Arcadia ego]

No, the Soviets did not master 'Tesla' tech.

I beg to fucking differ..

'Scalar' was a term hijacked from cognitive science studies used for psyops.

Bearden's a creep, no doubt, but your assessment of his actual role is in error, in my opinion. He's a Cold War salesman for Black Tech by scaring wealthy Christians into investing into SDI research like his buddy Greer.

Also, Scalar science is very real, but not in the context presented by Bearden.
