Lyn Buchanan, a CIA-trained remote viewer (1984–1992) and founder of Problem Solutions Innovations, reveals how the U.S. intelligence community used controlled remote viewing—including profiling Saddam Hussein’s delusions during the Gulf War—and why 9/11 wasn’t predicted despite its potential. She denies official programs exist but hints at unofficial efforts, warning of ethical risks like influencing slot machines or causing physical harm through uncontrolled "bilocation." Buchanan’s book The Seventh Sense (available on Amazon) details psychic abilities, from spontaneous remote viewing to the "hundredth monkey theory," while he dismisses Mars-Earth climate parallels, insisting Earth’s crisis is human-made. Precognition, like Art Bell’s involuntary vision of a car accident, may exist but isn’t easily harnessed, leaving remote viewing’s broader impact speculative yet unsettling.

From the high desert and the great American Southwest, I bid you good evening, good morning, good afternoon, wherever you may be on the planet, all its wonderful time zones covered by this program.
I'm Arbell.
This program is post-Chose a.m.
Glad to be here.
It's weekend.
Hooray!
And it's going to be an extremely interesting program this evening.
That's our Lindy Cannon.
Very famous remote view of your instructor.
Very famous remote viewer period from the government CIA-sponsored program.
Lindbut Cannon, one of the greatest.
And in this hour, we're going to have open lines.
That's coming up.
But a few things first.
I've got a little homegrown weirdness for you.
I mean, really homegrown.
This involves me and some friends of mine.
And fortunately, it's just not me that's going to be telling the story.
I've got her here.
You know her?
Her name is Bonnie Crystal.
At least a lot of you probably know her.
She's the very unusual lady who traveled to Peru and travels to different parts of the world looking for the deepest holes in the world to climb down into.
In fact, one time we talked to her by satellite phone in Peru when she was about to descend into one of the aforementioned holes.
in a moment we'll tell you all about it This would be a superb time to ask you all what you know about missing time.
That's right, missing time, time that just is gone.
Now, here's a little homegrown weirdness for you.
Bonnie Crystal and her business partner, Jessica, were on the way from, you know, they're friends of mine.
They were on the way from the Bay Area where they live to Las Vegas, here to Las Vegas, to go to the CES show, as so many other electronic junkies are doing right now going on in Las Vegas with all the electronic goodies.
And so I was talking to Bonnie, who, of course, is a ham radio operator on the 40-meter band, and I was kind of talking her in.
You know, I think I got her from the time she pretty much left home until she got here, actually, came to Prump.
And so right in the middle of our conversation, I guess Bonnie and I were talking.
Bonnie, welcome to the program.
When were you and I chatting?
You were just getting to a high point, weren't you?
So in other words, from the moment or a moment or two after I spoke to you on the radio and we signed, And then just like a minute later, you were how far down the road?
And so, Jessica, what do you think happened to you?
unidentified
I have no idea.
I'm a physicist, so I'm supposed to understand these things.
And the strange thing is that Bonnie and my memories of getting off the radio with you ended at the same time, and our memories of the power plant started at the same time.
And I was fully awake.
I was watching the scenery, waiting for Mojave to come along to gas up and get a soda.
And it's just absolutely no memory.
It's like someone cut that 45 minutes out of my life.
And Jessica, and I'll tell you, we'll hear from Bonnie again.
She's going back down to Peru.
She's a caver, on top of doing what she does in Silicon Valley.
She's a caver and looks for truly the deepest holes in the world.
But there was an experience worth hearing about.
Now, I had my little part in it, in that I was talking to them and noted the passage of that amount of time, certainly, and called and called them, and they weren't there.
So maybe some of the rest of you have had some sort of experience with something like this.
I don't know.
But I thought I would toss it out for what it's worth.
And it is certainly worth something.
Quickly around the world, British soldiers and Iraqi police clashed Saturday with armed stone-throwing protesters in southeastern Iraq, killing six people.
U.S. officials, unfortunately, acknowledged that American soldiers mistakenly killed two Iraqi policemen after they failed to properly identify themselves and influj all nine soldiers aboard the helicopter, the Medevec helicopter that we now know was shot down.
Did not fall down.
Well, it did, but it was shot down.
An American Airlines commuter flight diverted Saturday, another one, after a passenger passed a note to the crew demanding to be taken to Australia.
The plane landed safely instead at Washington's Dulles Airport.
It's cold in the Northeast while the climate change is real.
Certainly, I'm sure that the people in the Northeast don't want to hear about it, though, global warming.
It's very cold right now.
NASA's Spirit rover has now fully unfolded itself and stretched up to its full 4-foot, 11-inch height.
That's a small person, I guess, making it ready to drive off the lander that has delivered it to Mars.
And the rover space agency says it might reach the Martian surface as soon as Wednesday morning.
Now, we've got to talk about Mars for a second.
There's good news, and then I guess maybe some bad news.
I don't know.
A data acquired on Mars from the Mars rover Spirits Mini Thermal Emission Spectrometer shows that light or spectral signatures of an as-of-yet unidentified material that contains bound water, that's water folks, in its crystal structure.
Minerals such as gypsum and zeolites are possible candidates.
If water is indeed bound inside crystals underground, well, then it once flowed freely on the surface.
Meaning there's a very large chance there once was, and maybe still is, life on Mars.
Now, there's something that I want to say here, which will probably be not good news for Richard Hoagland.
I've really spent my time on the Enterprise mission site, and I have looked at all of what I could find of what were considered to be anomalous photographs.
And there is one thing of a, I don't know, a snake maybe.
It sort of looks like a snake or an animal like a snake with its mouth open and eyes and stuff, right?
But I've got to tell you, what I mostly see up there are rocks.
Rocks.
I could nearly go into my backyard here or very close by and take a photograph out here in the desert and show you just a similar scene.
Now, you know, I don't want to step on any toes here, but I don't see it, baby.
I just don't see it.
I see weird-shaped things, but when you have a field full of, or even a horizon full of weird rocks and shapes and things on Mars, you're going to end up with stuff that looks like stuff.
I mean, it's really akin, in my opinion, to looking at the clouds and finding your little puppy dog up there.
Ooh, look at your puppy dog.
You know, it's like that.
You can find things in things, and when they're not fully distinct, when they're only partially distinct, and they are awfully good photographs, but by the time you get down to rocks and stuff like that, you begin to get a little fuzzy.
And if you look at those photographs, I guess you can see things in them that you want to see.
I mean, the mind does that.
Now, I know there will be strong, strong protests from the ever-passionate, very passionate, verbose Richard C. Hoagland.
But I've looked very carefully, and I'm sorry, I see rocks.
Now, that doesn't negate the possibility there's life on Mars, certainly.
And now, with the discovery of water, it's ever so likely there is or was.
Probably both.
But I don't think we landed in the middle of a machine shop or wreckage of a civilization, which I've seen some evidence of in satellite photographs that look below the immediate topography on the top of Mars.
I'm willing to say those are very suspicious, but these new photographs from the rover, wonderful as they are, look like rocks.
Now, there is some weird stuff there, you know, where the rover hit, you know, it boom, boom, boom, bounce, right?
And apparently, where it bounced, it exposed soil that was stripped up and folded in a very interesting way, according to Jim Bell, a spokesman, right?
The scientists just can't wait to get there.
They want to dig into the area where the rover bounced.
They say, quote, it's bizarre.
Steve Squire said that.
Principal investigator on the NASA team.
It's strangely cohesive.
It's not like anything I've ever seen before.
It's weird stuff.
That's a quote.
So there's plenty of interesting stuff to explore in this crater on Mars.
But once again, being absolutely honest with you and Richard and everybody else concerned, honestly, I've looked and I've looked at the photographs, and yes, you can see shapes.
I mean, given millions of rocks, and there are obviously millions of rocks there, right?
There's going to be some weird-shaped rocks.
Hell, I can go out in my backyard here and go to Death Valley, and you can get a scene just about like that, and you can come up, you go, ooh, look at that.
And it's a really oddly shaped rock.
And in a photograph, as you look at images and blow them up and do all the rest of that, you begin to get images that the mind will then attach meaning to, because that's what the mind tries to do when it looks at any image.
It tries to attach a meaning to it.
It's the human thing to do.
We have brains, and our brains go to work, and they try and recognize something in the incoherent madness that's out there.
Well, all you have to do is right-click and hit copy, and then go to Fast Blast or anywhere else, and right-click again and hit paste, and boom, it'll appear.
Yeah, I've got a friend who's a truck driver, and we were talking with him as well yesterday.
And what really scared me was his name is Tim, friend of mine, and he was down in New Mexico at the time, involved in the conversation to some degree, and he said, oh, yeah, that happens to me sometimes, too.
unidentified
Oh, yeah, all of a sudden when you're going, when it first happened, I was going westbound toward Bakersfield, and all of a sudden I seen a scale house, and I thought, well, what the hell happened in my hobby?
Well, I must admit, things do disappear, and they seem to go to the land of the lost.
But then occasionally, some years, like you'll move something, sofa or something that you haven't moved in years, and you look behind it, and you go, oh, wow, look.
Well, that's where it went.
unidentified
Well, that's what I thought about the button that fell off my coat a few years ago.
They ripped the whole kitchen apart because they were renovating.
And I think it was during that same time, and that has been bothering me for years until I heard that show, one of your shows a couple years ago or a year ago, about discussing about that.
Well, it's actually, thank you, it's actually a lot deeper than that because of what it would mean.
And here is the basic theory that a lot of people, for example, have the memory that Nelson Mandela did not serve his jail time and then get out and go on to lead South Africa, but rather died.
And it's not just that.
That's just one example.
There are many other examples of seemingly false memories that people have.
Now, what could these be?
Well, if there is eventually to be time travel, and I believe there will be, if we live, if we survive as a race to gain the technology, I think we'll be able to travel in time.
I really believe that.
And so there could be time travelers.
And it may well be that if they in some way tamper with the fabric of time, or there's some other anomaly that tampers itself with the fabric of time, then things perhaps do get switched on about as experimentation and tampering occurs.
And things occur one way, and then time makes them something else.
A couple years ago, you had a heavy windstorm in Perump, Nevada, and it was bringing in dust and dirt from Mongolia and the fact, yes.
And the Gobi Desert.
Now, that's the same kind of land deflation that they're seeing there in that Mars crater.
And if the dust has been blown away in the Mars crater to expose buried objects, then there must also be some exposed buried objects in Mongolia and in that Gobi Desert.
Now, David Childress has been on your program a couple times, and he explores places like that.
And now, with all of that deflation in Mongolia and the Gobi Desert, there might be a few artifacts or dinosaur eggs or something to find there in the Gobi Desert.
Well, you know, they do look for, example, for meteorites.
And they go to dry lake beds and places like that to look for meteorites or anything else because, yes, indeed, there is a great deal of exposure that occurs just due to wind and dust erosion.
And besides, that kind of empty areas are just a good place.
I hadn't looked at the front of the CoastToCoastAM.com website.
Seems as though somebody named Tim Shepard has done a cartoon of me with a big old silly grin on my face and super glue, and that's a comic memory of something that happened to me a number of years ago on the program, which I'm sure most of you know about.
It didn't quite happen the way it's illustrated there.
It looks like I was just holding up some super glue, gluing my lips together.
It didn't happen that way at all.
I have this cart rack next to me on the wall here.
Yes, I still use carts.
I'm a dinosaur in the radio age.
So I have a cart rack here.
You've got to love these old things, you know.
And the cart rack, the little molly came out of the wall, and I was right in the middle of a break, you know, doing a show like I'm doing right now.
And so I ran into the other room and got the ever-trusty super glue, which I'm no good with at all.
I just, I don't have talent with super glue.
And anyway, I came in and attempted to apply some glue to the molly to get the thing back in the wall, right?
Sensible.
The problem was that, of course, I coated my finger in super glue, and then I tried to chew it off.
You know how you try to chew the glue off of your teeth, right?
Well, the problem was super glue wasn't hard yet.
So what happened basically is I glued my lips together, which is now, I guess, kind of humorous.
But even in retrospect, it wasn't very funny because when you're on the air, you have to talk, and that means you have to use your lips.
You must use them.
And so being in a panic to help myself out, instead of finding some remover or something like that, which the normal person would have done, I was running short.
I had like less than a minute to go to get back from the commercial set.
And so I ripped my lips open upon which, at that time, all then a little piece of my lip came off with the glue, which then ended up in the ashtray, and that was the...
It was just, you know, it was not funny at the time.
I understand.
In the spirit of the Lelian Gregory type stuff, it's funny to hear about, but talk show hosts gluing lips together.
That's the name, and that's a cool name, too, of Lynn Buchanan's new book.
That's really a cool name, The Seventh Sense.
That's neat.
I'm going to ask about that.
Lynn Buchanan was one of the U.S. military's controlled remote viewers from 1984 through 1992.
During that time, he worked first as a viewer and then as a database manager, trainer, training officer, and property book officer.
Upon retirement, he worked as a computer systems analyst at the DIA, Defense Intelligence Agency.
He then began his own computer data analysis company called Problem Solutions Innovations.
When the CIA finally declassified the existence of the military's remote viewing effort back in 94, it became public knowledge that Lin had been the unit's trainer.
He was, of course, quickly then overwhelmed with applications for training.
About this time, he began the Assigned Witness Program, which uses trained, experienced, controlled remote viewers to do pro bono remote viewing work for police and other public service organizations, the original intent to help police find missing children.
However, as cases met with success, the various departments and agencies began to enlist the remote viewers in other projects.
Presently, Problem Solutions Innovations continues to work with both public service agencies and the corporate world to train and make use of talented and qualified controlled remote viewers.
Lynn has written about his experiences and what he learned about the human mind in a book entitled The Seventh Sense.
Lynn Buchanan, hey, I really like your book title.
Okay, well, that question I want to tackle alone, you said you really think it's always been there that humans have always had this innate ability, whether it was sleeping in their minds or active, as in the remote viewing program, but it's always been there.
You know, there's evidence of it all the way through history, and not just the history of civilization, but also through the histories you get in jungle lore and such as that.
Yeah, in my course, I teach methods for developing both of them.
And the method for developing that sixth sense, that ambiance sense, you know when you're doing the thing right when people start saying to you, what are you, psychic or something?
Because you start seeing things in your environment right around you that is available to them, but they don't see it.
They're just sort of dead to the world in that environment.
And like I say, the controlled remote viewing that we teach, in fact, remote viewing itself is a methodology only to use the talent that you already have.
It doesn't develop talent within you that's not there.
You hear me play chopsticks and you hear go to Bourbon Street and hear some of those people play on the piano who've never had a lesson in their life and that becomes quickly evident.
I think there have been several developed, but basically what we do is we, you know, the proof of the pudding, what we do is we can put pictures in envelopes as a basic test and then give someone simply the cueing of,
you know, I want you to tell me what picture is in the envelope.
Well, yes, but I suppose the problem would exist no matter who assigned the target.
But the question will always hang about whether there is a telepathic communication between the mind of the person assigning the target, whoever that might be, and the person searching for the answer.
And if the person assigning the target wants you to find a certain thing, it's been shown, you know, through testing and databasing that the viewer will tend to find what the tasker wants them to find.
So you're saying the real method is indeed remotely locating and actually seeing what the target is, not a mental pollution coming from the person who assigned the target.
I mean, how do you generally search the ether like you'd search the internet on Google or something for a specific item and not know where the source of your information is from?
Yeah, it's sort of like calling up Google and typing in surprise me and see what happens.
Actually, there have been all kinds of theories about this, and the final answer is that all of the theories sound good, but none of them have really held up in practice.
And the bottom line is that no matter how expert you get, nobody really knows where this comes from.
The one that is held up most is the fact, well, is the theory that your subconscious mind sort of sits right on top of the collective mind and can gain information from it that is not normally accessible to your conscious mind.
You put in a subject, something you want to know about, and you're going to get good returns, and you're going to get things that are not perhaps in any way relevant to what you really wanted.
But if that's the kind of access and the kind of field that you can fire questions at and make inquiries of, then can't you begin to ask this great Google of God's world some of the questions that we all want to know about our own existence,
about how we got here, who we are, so many of the questions a little child might ask that you literally in remote viewing could probe.
Now, I've heard rumors that even back in the military program when it was going on, there were certain excursions, perhaps, from officially designated targets.
We sort of put them under the label of practice sessions.
However, we tried at all times to get those targets which would have feedback because we wanted to database the results and we wanted to find out on things like UFO sightings and all that.
We wanted to find out if we could do it and therefore we had to have feedback in order to learn whether we could or not.
Okay, Well, while we're on the subject of Ed for a second, Ed seems to have, you know, when we're talking about being able to virtually ask any kind of question, the really deep ones we all want to know about, Ed seems to have gone down more of that road than perhaps anybody else, you think?
And, you know, if there's no feedback, then you can't know that.
But now that we're in the computer age, you can keep a track record on known targets and find out over hundreds and hundreds of sessions how good you are and how accurate you are on questions of, oh, let's say the color of an object or the size or the shape or something like that.
Then when you do one of these, what's called esoteric targets, then you can look back at your track record and say, well, I can't prove it, but I can prove that I'm right 90% of the time.
I think also, from what I've seen on the internet, his name is mainly bandied around by him.
But from what I've seen on the internet, he holds that, and he is trying to come up with something that is better than remote viewing and will outmode it.
Now, being completely honest with us, have there ever been moments for you, Lynn, during a remote viewing session, where you have felt any sort of dark force, influence that you questioned something that could be darker?
Every question, I've heard that there are two questions that have answers in Washington, D.C. One is, where is the only place in Washington, D.C. where people know what they're doing?
And the answer is the bathroom.
And two is that the answer to every other question you can ask in Washington, D.C. is money and politics.
And the money and politics of the situation right as we moved into the Cold War from the active war, you know, moved out of the Cold War, that situation was such that everyone in the Intel community was on the verge of losing their jobs and slots were going and money was going.
But you do have to wonder if they weren't, well, let's see, what did they know, and how much did they know, and when did they know it, and whether the boss of the agent knew, and there was a wink and a nod, and really it was a semi-official, official thing.
So would you imagine, Lynn, that some of that action that has been taken, without our knowledge, was supported by information gleaned by remote viewing?
In fact, there have been indicators, as I watch the news, there have been indicators that some of it has.
And probably more interesting, when we actually invaded Iraq, there were indicators there that Saddam Hussein, who may be crazy, but he's not stupid, you know, had developed a remote viewing force of his own.
Out of curiosity, you don't know anything about, I mean, a man who had a vision or whatever that he was destined to rule the world ended up at the bottom of a dirt hole in a rather undignified manner when captured.
And you wouldn't think somebody with a delusion of world leadership would end up in a dirt hole.
They have not made their last attempt by any means.
I think there would be an awful lot of situations where they will rattle sabers and let information out into the public and then do nothing simply to keep us stirred up.
terror part of the not knowing me being concerned but i i mean in terms of actual occurrences things that that could Once you have remote viewed something, let's say that you remote viewed two buildings coming down, or airplanes plowing into buildings, something of that magnitude.
Sure.
Is that an inevitability or is there some way it can be changed?
Well, beautiful as it may be, it's probably also very troublesome for people like yourself.
Because if you successfully call a problem and screech from the rooftops about it, and then it doesn't happen because something changed it, then you look like you made a prediction that just didn't happen.
And yet your prediction really is what prevented its occurrence.
Is there any way to tell when you look at an event whether it has a certain degree of inevitability, you know, a high degree of inevitability, or is everything equally malleable and changeable if you need to change it?
I don't know of anyone who has found a way to tell those.
I have an analogy that I use about the pond of time.
You're a bug sitting on the pond of time, and you see another bug across the pond sitting beside a rock, and you think, oh, that would make a good meal.
You go skittering across the pond, and you set up waves in front of you.
Lynn Buchanan, who was one of the CIA's best at remote viewing, just told us, if you listened carefully and read a little between the lines, that there may have been some unofficial but official, mostly unofficial remote viewing going on about terrorism, what's going on right now in the United States.
I guess it's all sensitive stuff we're talking about, but it long ago occurred to me, Lynn, that if you could remote view, then maybe you could also remotely affect the mind of another person.
Now, you see, yes, but when I asked a lot of remote viewers before about this, they either said, well, I don't think so, or we don't do that, or we don't talk about that, one of the above.
The reason I was brought to the unit by General Stubblebein was to do remote influencing on computers, on enemy computers.
The Congress had pretty well put out an edict saying, not no, but, you know, expletive deleted no, you will not do mind control, and that's what they saw it as.
Yeah, we were sort of told, I was told the first day that I got there that under no circumstances would I ever do anything like that, and that General Stobebein had put me there in error, and therefore I was to become a remote viewer, but I would not do active mental work.
It was just sort of a natural talent that has always been there.
And it came out one fateful day when I got just absolutely flaming angry and sort of cost our government several big, big dollars for computer equipment.
And I didn't know at the time that this General Stubblebine, who was our commander of the intelligence forces, had people out who were trained to spot these events.
I had written a computer program, and this other guy had trashed it on the day that I was to show it to the generals of all of the 12 nations who had equipment and operations there where we worked.
Yes, I had spent a good eight months writing that program, and he did it on purpose.
And as soon as it bombed, I looked up, and you know, the generals were chuckling and all this, and he was standing in the back of the room, and he pointed his finger at me and mouthed, gotcha.
And I got just flaming angry, and I know better than to do that because of the incidents that have happened in my life.
And yet it was uncontrollable, and sure enough, many millions of dollars worth of computer equipment went down.
And like I say, I wasn't about to tell anyone that I had done it because they would think I was crazy.
And so anyway, when I was standing there in front of General Stobein, his scowl turned into a big wide grin, and he said, have I ever got a job for you?
And pretty soon there was in Washington, D.C., in a program that I had never heard of.
And in fact, when they told me what the program was, my first reaction was, I'm on candid camera, right?
Because, you know, I didn't believe the government would have any kind of a program like that.
And this is one of the things that I would have been doing was to be there and find a way to develop this ability, to develop control over the ability, and one day hopefully teach it to someone else.
Well, look, you know, an awful lot of paranormal occurrence, like things flying through the air or things associated like that, seem to be associated with young teenage girls with hormones right through the roof who are just going through an incredible period in their lives when they're just so pumped with hormones and emotion is through the roof.
In growing up, my life was quite a bit like Charlie Brown's, and I was trying to impress the cute little red-headed girl one day, and come to find out her father, the Pentecostal minister, was interested in what I was doing and met me the next day as I was going home from school,
asked me to show him what I had shown his daughter, and when I did, he and three of his deacons who were with me just had me down on the sidewalk screaming for the Satan to come out of me.
Well, if dad thought you had this kind of power and knew you were interested in his daughter right away, you're probably possessed anyway, as far as I can.
But, you know, for the first time ever, this talent that had appeared and that I thought was so neat, for the first time ever, I started questioning whether it was maybe evil or something.
Could you, for example, let's probe a little, could you, for example, influence the President of the United States to want to renew the U.S. space program?
I certainly believe in the collective consciousness.
And we live in that collective consciousness.
And when you start hurting other people, you're going to wind up hurting yourself because you're, you know, especially if you're in close touch with that collective consciousness, then you're going to hurt yourself just that much more.
Lynn, I got so fascinated a few years ago with the possibility of millions of minds concentrating on an event occurring that I experimented eight, nine times on quite a number of times on the radio with a worrisome amount of success.
I mean, we produced rain in areas where they were rain-starved.
There was no forecast of rain.
Damned if we didn't make it rain.
We did some experiments, Lynn, that scared me.
Really scared me, because I began to play in a field that I didn't know.
I was like a kid in a candy store, and we played with all kinds of things I'm sure we should not have played with.
It scared me.
And I don't understand the nature of it, but it would appear as though millions of minds concentrating on an event to occur can seem to influence it.
I talked to Dean Raden about this, and I expressed, at that time, caution, and I was very concerned about it because I didn't know what unexpected results I might get.
And when you're tampering with very large forces, unexpected results could conceivably be unpleasant.
You could really do something you don't mean to do or have an effect somewhere else.
And so just not understanding the nature of it, I withdrew from it and I stopped doing it.
And I'm still at that point now.
And I said, Dean, should I be concerned about this?
Not really worried or freaked out, just concerned and cautious and stopping until I understand more about it.
Lynn Buchanan, stay right there, listening to somebody who was in the CIA program, the U.S. government CIA remote viewing program.
I'll remember that nightline till the day I die when they admitted all that, went on with Ted Coppel and invented all that, and millions of dollars spent.
From the high desert in the middle of the night where it belongs, this is Coast.

No, but there is no question, Lynn, that if you had gone ahead and remote-viewed that with an eye toward your trip to New York, and then you had written it down or, you know, had witnesses that you said this was in our immediate future, you'd be, well, I don't know what you'd be right now.
You'd probably be behind a closed door somewhere in some government building or something.
And you'd probably have been questioned a whole lot.
A lot of things would have happened to you, I suppose.
However, to be fair about that, there have been other instances where we have been tasked and have come up with information that would show that something was about to happen.
And we have turned it in.
And as a result of taking action on it, the thing didn't happen.
And it gets back to the problem like you were talking about earlier.
Credit for things not seen, good things not seen, that protect the American people.
There is a lot of it.
People need to know that.
And there's got to be a reason why we have not yet been attacked again, not to say we won't be, but a lot of time has gone by, and you would think retaliation would have occurred had it been easy, so something must have been in the way.
I can tell you, actually, though, that I know this for certain.
Anyone who says that they are officially working for the government as a viewer is not being exactly truthful with you because the government is not officially using any remote viewers in any of the agencies of the government.
I mean, if our enemies have it, and if it really works, which you're assuring us tonight it does, and every night you've ever been on, then what the hell's wrong with us?
I mean, if our enemies have it, that's too much of an advantage.
Has it occurred to you that perhaps one reason our government might not be using remote viewers, this might not be a commonly considered reason, would be that in tasking the remote viewers, you would have to give them enough basic information so you might be able to discern some of our government's biggest secrets because what they would task you with would involve their biggest secrets.
There was, I believe, some fear along that line, yeah.
In fact, you know, we did get rated a few times for some of the things that, for instance, Joe McMonago found out, drew the inside of the absolutely most top-secret product that they were building, Area 51 type work, and actually drew an accurate picture of the inside of it.
I wasn't there at the time, but they quickly called downtown and got the people to vouch for the fact that it had been passed to us and that there was no other way the information had come and that it was witnessed.
Well, there was what was quite often called the, I forget how many martini lunches, seven martini lunch, that people would see the information we had gotten and find out how we had gotten it.
And lunch that day was solid martinis or solid alcohol of some form.
And, you know, I've dealt so long now with pictures of things like ghosts and what people perceive as apparitions.
And, frankly, a good 10% of them I cannot explain.
And I've posted many of those up.
I mean, just inexplicable pictures or what I thought were inexplicable, but the 90-plus percent that I cast off, I know damn well it's a lens reflection, or I know it's this, or I know it's that.
And it's kind of like Mars now.
It really is a pretty good parallel.
I mean, gosh, you know, you look at a million different images, you do close-ups on rocks, and I don't have to repeat all this, but they do look like, pretty much like rocks to me.
Gee whiz, water on Mars, it looks like for sure now.
Water and at one time an atmosphere.
That's the stuff of life.
And so it seems like there's some possibility that there might be an ancient civilization or that life of some form might have been or might be now on Mars.
That's what we found as a collective group In the unit.
Now, this was not officially tasked to us, but that's what we found: that there had been an ancient civilization there that, you know, pretty well just died off because of the climactic changes.
And we gave descriptions, and in fact, one of the descriptions that I gave of one of the life forms, I was extremely surprised when, oh, you know, when they found that Mars rock up in the Arctic and they found the little microbial looking things in it, that was the sketch I had drawn.
One of the reasons that a lot of people don't like that scenario is because you get headlines like I'm looking at right now in Nature.
It came out today.
It was on CNN today.
The headline is climate change, extinction, a threat to 25% of animals.
And what they're basically saying is that our climate here on Earth is changing so quickly right now that unless something changes, a quarter of all a species on Earth will be extinct, perhaps within our lifetimes.
And I've been screeching and yelling about this for years now, this climate change, this rapid climate change that now they're coming to believe indeed can occur and has occurred in the past.
And maybe occurring right now, right now, in front of us, in our lifetimes.
You usually think of these things in long geologic terms, and you don't worry about it in your lifetime or maybe even your child's lifetime.
It's somewhere out there.
But they're talking about our lifetimes, 25% of all the animals on Earth.
The oceans are increasing, the ice decreasing in the north and the south, and the world is changing really quickly, and not too many people are paying attention.
It's just the nature of the human to want to reject that kind of material.
And so I take, is that one of the reasons that Ed Dames will talk about some very dire things he sees, like, well, starvation, for example, mass starvation.

Those are the relevant phone numbers, and shortly we're going to begin taking calls for Lynn Buchanan.
So if you have a question about remote viewing, some of the cool stuff you've heard about tonight, some of this has been actually very new stuff, then you get on the phone, and I'll connect you with Lynn shortly.
Just a little word here.
I was holding this, I was thinking tomorrow night, I'll hit it tomorrow night too.
But this is so non-trivial, something they usually don't release on a Saturday.
But sure enough, it came out in Nature and hit the news everywhere, CNN, everything else.
The headline, climate change extinction, a threat to 25% of animals, a quarter of land, animals, and plants.
A quarter, 25% could be driven to extinction by another 50 years of global warming, scientists said today.
The stark warning follows a major study into the likely effects of greenhouse gas emissions on six biodiversity-rich regions around the world.
It found that by 2050, even a medium level of climate change threatened to wipe a million species off the face of the planet.
Between 15 and 37 percent of species could eventually become extinct, the research found.
Averaging out the findings resulted in the predicted disappearance of a quarter of land, animals, and plant species.
Higher levels of global warming led to a third of species becoming extinct.
That's really sobering stuff.
That's out in nature today, and it bears directly, I guess, on what we're talking about.
So, Lynn Buchanan will be right back.
I wonder, Lynn, whether you have looked at this enough to know whether what's happening to Earth right now is some variation of what happened to Mars.
It could have been the same thing that happened, you know, when they think the planet Venus is what stopped the Earth's rotation that one day in biblical history.
And that may have stripped an atmosphere away.
I don't think there's a way to know scientifically.
And in fact, there's a lot of absolute truth that's, you know, much of it is masked with religious terminology or with religious interpretation, and yet the truth is still there.
And the Bible is a good book.
It's a really valuable book.
And it has a lot of information that we need and that we can go by.
I had been doing bad guys and access into mentally doing plans and intentions as well as personality assessments, which is a deeper access.
And I had gone in to complain because, I mean, it was really tearing me up doing all these bad guys because you mentally associate with them when you do.
I went into my boss and I said, you know, I can't take this anymore.
Give me Mother Teresa or Bozo the Clown or something, but, you know, I can't take this anymore.
And his answer was, you know, you're a soldier, suck it up and do your job.
And, you know, get out of my office.
And I guess about a week later, I got a target which was just a personality profile type thing.
And I went into it to do my job.
And the minute I started the session, I got this sudden awareness.
And I said to my monitor, whatever evil you think this guy did, he didn't do it.
You've targeted me with the wrong guy.
And we went on through the session.
And finally, at the end of the session, by the end of the session, I was just glowing inside.
I'd never met any person like this.
And I actually accessed this person's mind and just came up, the experience was a life-changing experience.
And of course, when the session was over, he said, okay, well, let's see if there are any further questions.
He opened the envelope and pulled the thing out.
And our director had taken a sheet of paper and right in the middle, he had written the word Jesus.
And that had been my target that day.
And that one session was a large turning point in my life.
I think it was Courtney Brown one time said, you know, you met Christ at that level.
What did he tell you?
And the only answer I could give was, Courtney, when you've met Christ at that level, he doesn't have to say it.
I stress it sometimes to the point where people say, oh, well, he's just trying to make a living because he's a remote viewing teacher.
But that's not it.
I make a very good living aside from the teaching.
The need for training and the need for establishing with hard targets that you can faithfully, you know, as often as humanly possible, hit the target and describe it.
Yes.
That need is there.
It's part of the training and it has to be.
I see people who go for a one-day course in workshop in remote viewing and they come away and they immediately go out and try to save the world by finding missing children and all that.
And they, in the process, they tend to destroy themselves as well as everyone else.
There would be no way to meet with the mind of Christ and have that experience and not have it profoundly affect your entire spiritual belief system and life and I guess everything, huh?
And there are degrees of remote viewing and there are degrees of sight contact which go along with that.
If you have what's called the perfect sight contact or the bi-location experience and you have one of these experiences, then you can, I mean, it's extremely real and you would have the same fear and actually the same trauma as though it happened to you for real.
Fortunately, most remote viewing sessions do not go into bi-location, and so you still have that detachment and you can still realize, well, that's the target.
One of my students had been wanting to have this bilocation experience, and I kept saying, you're not ready for it, you're not ready, you know, just be patient and all that.
But he kept being impatient.
Someone gave him a target of a man drowning in mud and being swept away in a mudslide.
And I was working with a group of students over in one side of the room, and the student ran over and said, you've got to come over here quick.
Somehow he had bilocated into that person and was struggling for breath.
He couldn't breathe.
And it got to the, you know, I knew what was going on because I had seen the bilocation experience before.
And I thought, and I'm not proud of this, I thought, okay, buddy, you wanted this.
Then, you know, we're going to let you do this, and I'm going to pull you out when it's going too far.
And right at the last minute, I pulled him out.
He had come to the point where he knew he would not live through that session.
And he had come to the point in that session where he had accepted his own death as being imminent within seconds.
I like to think that when I accessed the person who just happened to be breaking his, in an accident at the time that I was accessing him and broke his rib, I like to think that my muscles tightened up to the place where my muscles broke my own rib.
I am not into the magic stuff, and so I look for logical, plausible explanations on all of this.
If the power of your mind can break your rib, then maybe the power of your mind could keep your windpipe constricted to the point where you wouldn't get enough air and would die.
The thing about controlled remote viewing is that if it's done correctly, there is no way the target person would ever sense you or be aware of you being there.
In fact, one of the things that I personally would do in the hostage crises, the Lebanese hostage crises, is when we access people to find out their mental and emotional state as well as their physical state, just sort of let them know that there was some comfort there and that someone was with them, someone was sticking with them through it, and give them some comfort.
You see, just hearing this raises the hair on the back of my neck, because if you can do that, then there are so many things that, I mean, it would be hard to make an ethical argument for most exercises, if not almost all of them, in that area.
You know, it's occurred to me that one of the reasons for the popularity of this program, something I've always wondered about, is the fact that people want there to be more to life than is apparent.
They don't want everything explained.
They don't want answers to everything.
There's got to be some things you wonder about out there, or it would not be nearly so interesting, would it?
First time call online, you're on air with Lynn Buchanan.

Hello.
Hello?
Hello.
Hey, Mr. Art.
This is James.
I do a line run from Colton to State Line, Nevada, and back every night, and I get a chance to listen to you on the weekends and Mr. Nori on the weekdays.
And I figure at that I'm making about $1.98 an hour because I'm spending generally around an average of around 300 hours after the class with each student.
And so, you know, the three days of training is just the beginning three days where we teach you what to do from there on out.
When certain things start happening in your sessions, those become mileposts that tell us when you're ready to come back for the intermediate class.
I generally find out what they would like to do about it, you know, what they would like to do with it, and try to steer them to a trainer who will teach them along those lines.
If they just want it shallow, then I keep up pretty well with the training that's going on out there.
Well, I wonder of the new percentage of recruits who've listened the last 45 minutes or so, how many will be motivated by sex and how many by money?
Wildcard line, you're on the air with Lynn Buchanan.
Hello.

Hi.
My name's Chris.
I'm calling from San Diego, California.
First off, I'm a first-time caller, long-time listener.
And I'm going to thank you, Artville, for all that you've done with this show.
Thank you.
I personally have, for the last year, been deeply in a ritual practice on meditation.
And I've been on my own on this, and I've had some experiences on my own that I haven't been able to explain and been on my own doing.
And this is the first time that I've ever come close to anything that's kind of related to what I've gone through.
So what I'm looking for here is just I will share a brief experience and then maybe any advice or comments.
A lot of the times when I go into my meditations, I get into a certain state, and I'm not doing this intentionally, I'm just focusing on my breathing, where when I close my eyes, I see black.
And after a while, the blackness will dissolve, and I'll be in my living room, or I'll be at the local Starbucks where I've hung out.
I've gone back to Tucson, where I've seen friends that I've never met, and I've confirmed certain things.
I was able to confirm of friends that I never met a car that they drove, and I described it to a T and later was there physically and was able to confirm it.
And it's never been a point where I know I'm not leaving my body.
I know I'm still in my apartment.
And I've always, it always felt like reality was coming towards me.
But isn't it a sort of a general thing where you're opening your consciousness damn near randomly as opposed to any direction which would be supplied by remote viewing?
Generally, he will go to familiar places and familiar people.
And this happens quite a bit with the spontaneous remote viewing.
You have to add controls to this process in order to target some specific place and have control over it.
The third thing I wanted to say was that in controlled remote viewing especially, we sort of build a mini-virtual reality with stress on the reality and it becomes real to us.
And yet, unlike, say, out-of-body experiences where a part of you goes to the site and people have actually been witnessed at the site, in the controlled remote viewing, you're building a mini-virtual reality where your subconscious supplies you with all the information in visuals, smells, tastes, textures, and all that.
And this is one of the reasons why, in controlled remote viewing, you can never be picked up at the site.
You can never be noticed there or even sensed there by dogs or animals or anything, is because you're not going there.
The site is coming to you.
And so this is the experiences you're having are all very well in line with the process.
But it was a whopper, and it was waking hours and everything else.
And it was really, really strong.
And it really, really happened.
In fact, when my car got hit, I fell to my knees watching it happen because I was driven to this window to watch.
I knew something was going to happen to my car.
Sure as hell, a guy got in front, started his ignition, threw it in reverse, hit my car while I was watching because I knew he was going to hit my car.
I actually went to my window.
So it was random.
I didn't want it.
I didn't bring it off.
I couldn't do it again if my life depended on it, and probably even less if my life depended on it.
So can you actually control these things?
Do you think that a discipline like remote viewing can become so sharp that it can start to control what's natural for you sometimes?
I went to the window once and nobody was there out there, and I said, this is stupid, and went back to watch the evening news, and it washed over me again.
Same thing, until it forced me back to the window, and I watched this guy walk down the side, walk, get in his car, put it in reverse, hit my car.
Yeah.
And I actually fell to my knees.
It scared me so badly.
Nothing like that's ever happened again, but it sure did happen once.
And being a first-time author, Simon and Schuster didn't really push the book, and so it wind up not being on a lot of shelves.
And I was talking to Jim Mars one day, and he said, what you do is you advise people that if they have to order the book, order two or three of them, and then when they come in, say, oh, I only need one now, and the other two wind up on the shelf.
