[RVIS_News] Ingo Swann

I have some sad remote viewing news to report. Ingo Swann, widely acknowledged as the father of remote viewing, passed away early this morning from the effects of a stroke. He would have turned 80 this year. You can read about Ingo's remarkable life and accomplishments here: http://www.rviewer.com/Who_IngoSwann.html

Wonder what Ingo's Swann song was?

Didn't remote viewing at SRI just turn out to be Swann and Puthoff working on auditing for Co$ on the government nickel? Seems like I heard that somewhere.

I've heard lots of accusations regarding SRI/RV/Co$ but haven't read anything convincing to me.

But it was certainly Mil-Int backed.

there's a recent (ly bumped) thread on that. couldn't be further back than page 2 or 3.

Together, Silfen and Swann prepared an unofficial report of later out-of-body experiments and circulated it to 500 members of the ASPR, before the ASPR board was aware of it. According to Swann, Silfen has disappeared and cannot be located. He is searching for her and asks for your help. According to Swann, in April 1972 a move was made at the ASPR in New York to discredit him and throw him out because he was a Scientologist.

Some further details surrounding the passing of Ingo Swann, the creator of remote viewing. Many of you have inquired where you can send your respects and condolences. Here is the information I have been provided:

"Condolences may be sent electronically to the funeral home, Greenwich Village Funeral Home at http://www.greenwichvillagefuneralhome. ... lences.htm "

Further, some have inquired about sending flowers or donations to a cause Ingo cared about. His sister has asked that in lieu of flowers people may choose to donate to one of the organizations Ingo supported:

International Remote Viewing Association -- http://irva.memberlodge.org/donate

A.R.E. (Edgar Cayce Foundation)-- http://www.edgarcayce.org/

Federation of East Village Artists (Howl Festival) - http://www.howlfestival.com/

Meals on Wheels -- https://www.mowaa.org/donate

Thank you all for your interest and concern for Ingo Swann and his family,

Paul

Ingo, I'm sorry for distributing your book Penetration in .pdf -- while I never understood your motivations for supressing it, how could I?

I'm reasonably sure my insubordination was no big deal, but just in case: apologies.

how ... the ... frak ... did eye ... miss ... that ....

dang ... actually, I saw the bump, bumped it with my comment about Wright's austin scien book signing ... but didn't read the OP as I thought I'd read it before.

And while I was aware of the scien trifecta puthoff-swann-price ... i never really saw it as all that weird per se ... but the cut of that article spun me around a bit...

Major Ed Dames created his money-making venture using technology that HE claims was developed by the CIA in research (using millions of tax dollars), and in which he was the Training and Operations Officer for "a new psychic intelligence community."

Well, we think that's just ducky.

Yet he vigorously denies that Hal Puthoff, Ingo Swann, and Pat Price were Scientologists; he vigorously denies that they were key players in the development of "remote viewing;" and he vigorously denies that "anchor points" are a discovery of L. Ron Hubbard.

Well, we say, "bunk" to your denials, Major Ed.

We think you have a damn good reason for trying to downplay and hide the Scientology-CIA-remote-viewing connections.

We think there's a damn good reason why Puthoff and Swann had intelligence backgrounds before getting into Scientology.

We think there's a damn good reason why they had no sooner reached the secret upper levels of Scientology, than they were back under the wing of CIA developing remote viewing for the "new psychic intelligence community."

We think there's a damn good reason why psychiatrist Dr. Louis Jolyn "Jolly" West--a brainwashing specialist with CIA ties going back to the early '50's, when L. Ron Hubbard first exposed government brainwashing techniques and mind-control experiments--was also connected with the CIA's Remote Viewing Program.

We think there's a damn good reason why the judge in the instant case involving CST--Judge Frances Rothschild--has well-documented ties both to IRS/Treasury, and to Intelligence Oversight committees in the federal government, and why Rothschild got put onto the case through the expedient of the first judge recusing herself.

We think there's a damn good reason why CST was co-founded by a former Assistant to the Commissioner of IRS, who just happened to be there at IRS while an IRS employee was feeding government documents to senior Scientology officials--which ultimately got those officials jailed, and made it possible for CST to get possession of all the copyrights containing the technology that CIA appropriated for its own use.

And we think any effort to cover all this stinking rot up is BUNK, Major Ed. Or worse.

We think the evidence of connections between federal government agencies and CST is now overwhelming, Major Ed, and that only a real idiot could ignore it. We think that there's even a possibility that Dr. "Jolly" West helped mix Scientology technology with Jungian psychology so that it could be slickly packaged up and sold off as "remote viewing" to the gullible public--pretending that it's exactly what the government is using (yeah, right), while, in fact, CIA (and DIA, and NSA, and the alphabet soup group) keep the real stuff for themselves.

We also think that CST is packaging altered versions of the original Hubbard works, and selling those off disguised as the real thing, too.

But that's just what WE think, Major Ed. What do YOU think?

Oh, that's right. We remember now. You say it's all "bunk." And you wouldn't lie, would you Major Ed? Why, hell--you're a "former" United States intelligence officer.

Today, September 1, 2013 commemorates two of the most important dates in my life. It is the 87 birthday of my late mother, Jean Tidwell Smith. And it is the 30th anniversary of my assignment to the Army’s remote viewing psychic spy program. I’ve talked a bit about my mom elsewhere but–not to ignore her–today I particularly want to remember the early days of my remote viewing career. It is, after all, one of those “round-number” anniversaries that we seem always to want to celebrate (20th, 30th, 50th, and so on). Thirty years ago today, September 1, 1983, I officially left my duties in a conventional military intelligence unit, where I managed raw intelligence reports from Iran, Iraq, Syria, and other US intelligence targets in the region. I immediately officially joined a unit that was about as far from that kind of intelligence activity as could possibly be...
