The PSI-force in all of us

If I could write a book exposing myself as a fraud and a charlatan I would readily do so. Because I know that such a book would be another best seller. For millions of people around the world would love to know if I really fooled the Pentagon or scientists at The Stanford Research Institute, and the University of London. But unfortunately I cannot do this because the things that have happened to me, and the things that may very well happen to you after reading this book, are real.
No magic or illusion was involved when hundreds of amazed television viewers watched their own spoons bend and watches mend while my face dominated their TV screens. How was I able to do it from a television studio? As much as I would like to claim the credit, the truth of the matter is that it was not me projecting my powers. It was you the viewer using your hidden powers without even realising it. You brought your broken clocks back to life. You made the family silver twist and curl like spaghetti. My role was that of an agent who triggered off powers you did not know existed.
That is what I call the PSI-FORCE and it is there just waiting to be used for whatever legitimate purpose you require. I will teach you how to take advantage of that force within you and also share with you the secrets of my own powers. Why? Because I want everyone to be as content and as secure and as happy as I am. PSI-FORCE has granted me the opportunity of making powerful friends. It has introduced me to princes, presidents and prime ministers, given me homes in four countries and made me a multimillionaire. I believe it can do the same for you.
A funny thing, happened to me
Most of us do not question unusual incidents which take place in our lives unless their effects have had a devastating influence. Even then, we may only record the event in our minds without delving too deeply into the reasons. We will certainly discuss it with friends, remark on its unusual nature and put it all down to coincidence or that often used phrase: 'a funny thing happened to me.'
Scientists love to use the word 'coincidence.' It can save a lot of embarrassing questions which they might otherwise need to explain. Questions to which they have no answers. Let me give you an example. A group of scientists want to test Uri Geller. They ask me to sit on a chair in an otherwise empty room. Then they march in ten different people, one after the other. As each person comes into the room they are asked to draw in their minds a picture of a simple object. I am asked what that object is and on each occasion I correctly describe the mental image they have projected. Nearly all the scientists present are impressed with the results but simply describe the proceedings as 'an amazing coincidence.' One of their number, however, is not so sure that it was a coincidence. He is more open-minded than the others and believes there are deeper explanations involved which as yet we know little about. He believes in the tremendous power of the mind and its capacity to project and receive images - telepathy.
Now add up all the 'funny things' that have happened to you in you life; things for which you never sought an explanation. Recall those occasions when you were thinking about someone and that person suddenly telephoned you. 'That's funny, I was just thinking about you.' Isn't that what you've said a hundred times? More? Or again, someone, perhaps a friend or relative was on your mind and, what a coincidence, you suddenly meet that person in the supermarket or at the cinema. Coincidence? Perhaps, jokingly you've also said: 'I must be psychic.' Well, let me tell you - you are.
What you have repeatedly done over the years, without even realising it, is to communicate by means of mental telepathy. Sometimes you have acted as the receiver, other times you have been the transmitter. And the closer you have been to the other party, the stronger the signals each of you received. You have only to study the remarkable extent of unspoken communication between identical twins to realise how powerful the telepathic process can be. Identical twins have been known to experience each other's joy and grief even when they are hundreds of miles apart.
Now let me tell you of a tragic event that happened in America. This story was recorded by parapsychologists or PSI researchers, scientists whose research includes the study of inexplicable occurrences (the paranormal). For them, this story asked more questions than it answered. It is what I call a 'scientific frightener' because it takes us into unknown waters and inquires whether or not there are qualities in humans which might relate to time and space and suggests there is something in us that will continue, even after we die.
Sadly, it involved a lady in Brooklyn, New York, whose son was a fighter pilot in the United States Air Force serving in Korea. The woman was going about her normal household chores when she heard the front doorbell ring. She had no idea who it could be but was so shocked on answering the call that she has never quite fully recovered from the consequences. For the person at the door was her son, proudly standing there in his uniform and impatient to greet his mother. Despite her surprise at seeing him - after all, she believed he was still in Korea - she was overwhelmed with excitement and the pair embraced warmly and lovingly. But then, just as mysteriously as he had appeared, he vanished again. Numbed by the event, his mother fainted at the spot where the reunion took place and was revived by a neighbour to whom she immediately related this story. Both the mother and neighbour were perplexed by the 'apparition' until a few hours later when the pilot's mother was informed by the US Air Force that her son had been killed while on manoeuvres in Korea.
I am convinced many of us have had similar experiences but have been reluctant to talk about them. How would you explain the airman's appearance? Would you say it was chance, communication with the dead - clairvoyance, telepathy, precognition, or even astral projection? I have an open mind which would accept many of the above possibilities. But to my mind, the least possible of these alternatives is chance. I do not believe it was chance because I understand the amazing powers our minds are capable of generating. As for the pilot's mother, she was sure from that day on that her son wanted to communicate with her from the grave. I would suggest another explanation. Because of the strong bond that existed between mother and son, she received his thought signals when he died but she wanted to avoid the truth of the tragedy by imagining that he had returned safely.
Whichever explanation we give, or you decide on yourself, the fact remains there was communication over a distance of thousands of miles. Don't ever think that believing something like this will class you as a 'nutter.' That great writer and philosopher, Arthur Koestler, a man with whom I spent many long hours before his death, left the bulk of his estate to a British University for psychic research. I will talk about Arthur in later chapters but it is important to note that a man who enjoyed an international reputation as a writer, scientist, and philosopher, should believe in powers beyond normal mental abilities. He was fascinated by what he called 'out of the blue phenomena' - levitation, ESP, telepathy, and precognition. Moments before he died, he left a suicide note in which he expressed 'timid hopes for a depersonalised after-life beyond due confines of space, time and matter, and beyond the limits of our comprehension.' No one who knew this eminent thinker would ever suggest he was a nut!
If twenty years ago I had told someone, as I then believed, that it would be possible to communicate by telepathy with a man on the moon, I would probably have been asked to accompany four white-coated gentlemen to the nearest asylum. But now scientists are taking claims like this seriously. Because it has been done! The sixth American on the moon, astronaut Dr Edgar Mitchell, a respected scientist in his own right, revealed that he had successfully transmitted telepathic messages from the moon. As a result of his interest in PSI he became a full-time researcher after quitting the space programme. Like me, he believes that psychic experiences can benefit each and every one of us if these powers are properly developed and employed. They are not there to be used as a prop, nor are they something of a mystery. They are there to be developed, just like an arm or a leg or the fingers of a hand. We all possess them. The only difference is that very few of us use them.
The PSI factors
Most people who believe in the existence of a god or a superior force have excellent prospects for developing PSI power. It is only the total cynic who believes in nothing but himself and will not acknowledge the possibility of a greater power or superior being. That person will be limited by his own ignorance. Fortunately, there are very few of those smug, self-sufficient souls around. From my own observations, I tend not to believe in these obstinate agnostics. As much as they protest, they can often turn to the 'unknown' in times of need. I have been on battlefields and heard these non-believers cry out for help: 'God, if there is a God, help me!' Such a cry does not pay lip service to any one particular religion. But if the plea is heard then it does tend to drastically change the person's viewpoint.
Now if you are a doubting Thomas, take this appeal for help one step further. If you actually believe a force has helped you in a time of need, why not call on that same force when you are not in trouble but want to enhance the quality of your existence and explore the opportunities life has to offer? The applications are countless and the opportunities unlimited. You have only to believe that it can be done.
PSI-FORCE can be of continuing benefit to you in your daily life. It will help you to excel in sport, outsmart your boss, win at games, make friends, attract the opposite sex, be a good lover, overcome illness and depression, come to terms with death or disaster, be a financial success, and, above all, be happy and content.
But you must learn how to channel it your way. Remember that it is a force and wherever there is a force, there must be a proper outlet as otherwise its effect can be misdirected. What I am saying is that you need to direct that special PSI-FORCE through a practical channel to maximise the advantage it will bring to you. And this is what I will be teaching you in the subsequent chapters of this book. How to get the best out of your particular talent using that dynamic force that is in you, just waiting to be awakened, sharpened and properly and practically channelled for your benefit. And just as I asked millions of television viewers to let me know if their clocks started again when they joined me in this mind over matter exercise, so I am also asking you, when you have finished this book and realised the benefits, to let me know. Don't keep it to yourself, share it with your friends. Spread happiness around as I am trying to do. Send a short letter to my publishers. I cannot promise to answer all your letters because I know there will be so many that it will be an impossible task. But I am convinced that for the millions who will read this book, their life may never again be the same.
Let's look at different aspects of PSI. If we accept that inexplicable things happen in our lives then we must not scoff at ideas that initially seem 'far out' or that appear totally beyond our comprehension. But please, do keep an open mind. Remember that what might have been regarded as science fiction thirty years ago is commonplace today. As this is a practical book, I will not delve too deeply into what some people might regard as science fiction or metaphysical concepts. But it is just as well to have a basic idea of the wonderful things which will happen in the future and excite generations to come. Take for example, the use to which the human mind could be put during an international conflict. It may sound as if this should belong to sci-fiction but I can assure you that governments of various countries have already shown more than a passing interest in the paranormal and are holding secret tests into PSI-FORCE.
The government mandarins would love to be able to read the minds of their opposite numbers. They would love to interfere with enemy computers using PSI-FORCE rather than hi-tech. I do not say this lightly, because I have been asked to do these very things by high ranking members of foreign governments.
The word 'psychic' is less frequently used these days for one very good reason. It tended to be met with scepticism and acquired a stigma because of charlatans who claimed false powers. Today it is being replaced with words like PSI or 'paranormal' because of the wider acceptability of its existence. PSI is explained as a phenomenon which appears to contradict the laws of natural science.
For example, if an object is placed on a table at point A but we want that object to be at a different spot twenty centimeters away on the same table, at point B, we will either have to pick it up or push it or tilt the table so it slides to point B. How that object moved from point A to point B can then be explained in scientific terms. It was moved by a physical force. But what if the object moved from one point to the other through PSI-FORCE? What if someone willed that object to move and it did so without anyone exerting a physical force? Then the only explanation applying would be the phenomena of 'psychokinesis': the mind influencing matter and so contradicting the laws of natural science.
To some people, psychokinesis comes very naturally and easily, often embarrassing the initiator of the force. I have been in a room where objects have literally flown about and come crashing down, scaring everyone present. This phenomenon also brings us into the area of the poltergeist - a terrible psychic beast who appears generally when children are present and throws things at random around the room as well as showing off his powers of levitation. It is also a very good example of what could be a useful force being wasted and made dangerous through lack of proper control. But just think if you could control those objects.
Have you ever carelessly thrown a scrap of rolled up paper into a narrow dustbin from a distance of several yards and scored a direct hit? Did it surprise you? Well, if it did not surprise you, try a little test and see how many times out of ten you could repeat that score. Often, when we are not really trying, we find we have amazing accuracy in judgement. I believe that the forces at work are related to psychokinesis. You may not be a very good shot but your mind has willed that piece of paper or object you are throwing to hit the target. Now perhaps you can understand why sports writers wax eloquent about the 'magical' qualities of ball players. What they are really describing is the player's highly developed PSI-FORCE - practically combined with sound physical prowess.
Nearly every day a superhuman feat is recorded somewhere in the world. A man falls out of an aeroplane and survives, a mother prises open the jaws of a ten foot long killer shark and saves her young daughter. These are astounding acts of human will power achieving the impossible. PSI-FORCE.
When I was in the Amazon jungle I witnessed the amazing skill of a local native, an Amerindian. He was an old man whose fame for hunting was widespread. He wore scant clothing and his prized possession was a bamboo blow pipe into which he would place poison arrows and kill small prey for food. He was also very religious, having been partly taught traditional religion by Christian missionaries which his tribe had then adapted into their own religion, and whose god was called 'Ibilibin' - 'I believe in'. This little man did not impress me at first with his skill. I thought, like those present, that it was a normal everyday skill which he had learned and which members of his tribe had to rely on for their very existence. It was only when I learned that the man was blind that I became aware of the magnitude of PSI-FORCE in the human race. Have you not admired the way in which a blind person will walk across busy roads, down steps, and stop at the edge of a bank or road? Some people describe this behaviour as a sixth sense. The description is immaterial. What that person possesses is a highly developed and practical form of PSI.
Dowsing is another highly developed form of PSI. On my visit to Australia, I was surprised at the number of people who believed in this art. The reason, of course, was need. Australia has some of the most arid countryside in the world and they depend on drilling for bore water. And even the most down to earth 'cocky' (a name given to outback farmers) would think nothing of calling in an expert with a Y-shaped twig to find water. But try and explain to that farmer that this was a manifestation of the paranormal and he will very smartly tell you where to take your 'mumbo jumbo.' Fortunately, as I have said, that attitude is dying out and I, in fact, had a very profitable time dowsing for gold with a down-under company.
The best family doctors, though they will probably be the last to admit it, are also natural healers. A lot of them would probably be just as effective in curing many ailments whether they had passed their examinations at a medical school or not, or even, for that fact, ever attended medical school. Unfortunately, a number of general practitioners who have subscribed to this theory are singled out as being a little odd or eccentric. They are also scared of the term 'spiritual healing' which basically means that PSI-FORCE is used to diagnose and treat illness.
I know of an English policeman who became a marvellous healer in the south-west of England. He resigned from the police force because so many police came to him with their ailments that he had no time to man his beat. He could diagnose illnesses within seconds and then cure them just as quickly by putting his hands over the person's head and running them down the patient's spine. Although the power of healing is stronger in some than in others, it can be developed and self-healing has become a widespread and much practised art.
Another form of PSI which has helped many people face the inevitable conclusion of death is the out-of-the-body (or near death) experience and the possibility of reincarnation. Those who have faced or are facing death, have found comfort and an inner happiness by drawing on the experiences of those very special people who have been pronounced clinically dead but were then later revived.
When the British actress Pat Phoenix was dying of cancer, her mental suffering was greatly eased on hearing stories of life after death and the experiences of those close to her who had entered the twilight world but then returned. So too were Rock Hudson's last days lightened.
Much research has been done in this field and most of it has pointed to a happier existence hereafter. The out-of-the-body experience, I might add, is not confined to the above category of person but also takes place in perfectly healthy people. It is a form of astral travel - the psychic body leaves the physical body. It is quite an eerie yet somehow exciting experience to look down at your body knowing you are out of it. How wonderful it would be if we could all travel within an instant to see our friends who live on the other- side of the world. It's also a lot cheaper than air travel!
How often have you walked into a room or some other place and known that you have been there before? I would be very surprised if the reader of this book has not experienced the phenomena of deja vu, the 'I've been here before' syndrome. One possible explanation for this is that you have precognition You have had a view of the future and when your physical body then experiences what your telepathic mind has already seen, you think you have been there before. I consider that our mind has such a strong telepathic energy wave that it can travel distances faster than the speed of light. Imagine if you could control that? You would be barred from Wall Street and the stock exchanges in Tokyo, Frankfurt and the City of London as well as every race-track and casino in the world. But just think of the fun you would have in the meantime!
So far, I have only touched on some of the aspects of PSI which are probably familiar to you. There are many more I will talk about in the subsequent chapters, but for the moment I want you to realise, even if you did not believe in these powers before, that there must be something in them. Keep thinking back at the number of incidents in your life where you have experienced the improbable or the inexplicable. Because what we will try and do for you is to make it possible to replicate those incidents which you found pleasant and beneficial. If you achieve this, then you are beginning to channel your PSI-FORCE. But you must practise and you must be flexible and tolerant to what is happening. The PSI experience is an all-embracing one. If you shut out the possibility of one form of PSI happening, you are in danger of shutting out all the possibilities. An open and a receptive mind is the most essential ingredient for PSI development.
Now I want you to answer the following questions. Think about them and be honest with yourself. Answer these questions with either: 'Yes' or 'Not sure' or 'No.'
1. Do you believe that psychic healing really works?
2. Have your dreams sometimes come true?
3. Do you believe in the existence of a God?
4. Do you think telepathy between people is possible?
5. Do you sometimes look at the Bible for inspiration?
6. Do you think there is life after death?
7. Have you ever been to a seance?
8. Would you be scared by prophecies of death?
9. Do you consider it possible for us to be visited by aliens from another planet?
10. Do you think ESP/telepathy is really possible?
11. Do you think ghosts or apparitions will ever be scientifically documented?
12. Have you ever consulted a clairvoyant?
13. Do you often read astrological predictions?
14. Have you experienced strange happenings that have been more than coincidence?
15. Do you consider yourself to have psychic powers?
Scoring Give yourself 2 points for each 'Yes' answer 1 point for each 'Not sure' answer and O points for each 'No' answer. Then add up your total score.
A score of 14 or more indicates that you are interested in the possibility of psychic phenomena. At least you are open-minded about the claims of the paranormal, if not actually involved.
A score of 20 or more suggests that you are a true believer. You are the sort of person who experiences the mystical side of things. Apart from being broader than average, your life experiences are likely to be more intense. For you, falling in love would be an earth shattering experience.
High scorers on this scale are more likely to demonstrate psychic ability when put to the test. Conversely, very low scorers have been found to score less than they would by chance.
If you have scored less than 14, you have not yet opened your mind to the possibility of PSI phenomena. But do not give up. The fact that you have started reading this book is a good sign that you are now willing to examine the subject and give it a try.
But high or low, if you believe in the possibility, then you are with me all the way and I will teach you everything I know. Let's get to work straightaway and use our combined powers to give you a new and better understanding of life! We share the same talents and beliefs. You have only to develop yours!
