1 00:00:11,030 --> 00:00:07,430 so what i'm going to talk about is a 2 00:00:12,070 --> 00:00:11,040 tale of two esp practitioners and the 3 00:00:13,910 --> 00:00:12,080 one 4 00:00:17,109 --> 00:00:13,920 happened before world war two and the 5 00:00:18,550 --> 00:00:17,119 one happened just during the last 6 00:00:21,349 --> 00:00:18,560 some years 7 00:00:23,429 --> 00:00:21,359 so let me see okay so 8 00:00:25,589 --> 00:00:23,439 here i'm going to just introduce some 9 00:00:28,710 --> 00:00:25,599 details of this 10 00:00:30,870 --> 00:00:28,720 region the paper appearing in jssc 11 00:00:33,350 --> 00:00:30,880 and then i'm going also to try to 12 00:00:35,030 --> 00:00:33,360 connect with uh 13 00:00:37,190 --> 00:00:35,040 a book 14 00:00:40,069 --> 00:00:37,200 and to 15 00:00:42,830 --> 00:00:40,079 introduce some fascinating stories of 16 00:00:44,389 --> 00:00:42,840 this polish 17 00:00:45,990 --> 00:00:44,399 engineer 18 00:00:49,670 --> 00:00:46,000 so um 19 00:00:50,790 --> 00:00:49,680 i think we yeah we in this uh this field 20 00:00:52,069 --> 00:00:50,800 we all 21 00:00:55,750 --> 00:00:52,079 know the 22 00:00:56,950 --> 00:00:55,760 introduction of zener cart 23 00:01:00,950 --> 00:00:56,960 in the 24 00:01:03,270 --> 00:01:00,960 1930s by carl zeiner and the jb line 25 00:01:05,109 --> 00:01:03,280 as an objective 26 00:01:06,950 --> 00:01:05,119 means to 27 00:01:08,630 --> 00:01:06,960 assess their 28 00:01:11,750 --> 00:01:08,640 psychic 29 00:01:13,270 --> 00:01:11,760 performance and over there so this was 30 00:01:14,550 --> 00:01:13,280 the standard 31 00:01:20,630 --> 00:01:14,560 uh 32 00:01:23,350 --> 00:01:20,640 five positions each position has five 33 00:01:25,590 --> 00:01:23,360 possibilities so for this combination we 34 00:01:27,670 --> 00:01:25,600 would think of about the 35 00:01:31,510 --> 00:01:27,680 the permutations 36 00:01:35,190 --> 00:01:31,520 and in this the latest this paper 37 00:01:36,789 --> 00:01:35,200 published by jsc over there those five 38 00:01:40,469 --> 00:01:36,799 character quotes 39 00:01:43,030 --> 00:01:40,479 all the come up with about 45 million 40 00:01:45,510 --> 00:01:43,040 permutations 41 00:01:47,749 --> 00:01:45,520 for the per code so i'm going to talk 42 00:01:48,550 --> 00:01:47,759 about that a little bit 43 00:01:50,310 --> 00:01:48,560 so 44 00:01:52,830 --> 00:01:50,320 um 45 00:01:55,270 --> 00:01:52,840 so here this 46 00:01:59,910 --> 00:01:55,280 study and 47 00:02:03,670 --> 00:01:59,920 it contained a single blind test for the 48 00:02:07,990 --> 00:02:03,680 initial demonstration for the authors to 49 00:02:11,670 --> 00:02:08,000 identify or confirm a gifted child a 50 00:02:14,949 --> 00:02:11,680 teenager and then later on there are two 51 00:02:17,830 --> 00:02:14,959 studies and both double blind and then 52 00:02:21,589 --> 00:02:17,840 performed in two different cities in 53 00:02:24,790 --> 00:02:21,599 china and over here this uh there 54 00:02:26,949 --> 00:02:24,800 the sample the double blind sample was 55 00:02:29,830 --> 00:02:26,959 prepared in beijing 56 00:02:31,110 --> 00:02:29,840 by a friend of the lead officer and then 57 00:02:33,270 --> 00:02:31,120 those two 58 00:02:36,150 --> 00:02:33,280 the initial single blind the 59 00:02:40,150 --> 00:02:36,160 demonstration and the two the double 60 00:02:42,949 --> 00:02:40,160 blind the laboratory tests they were 61 00:02:44,710 --> 00:02:42,959 performed in those two cities in the 62 00:02:47,509 --> 00:02:44,720 eastern part of china and in the 63 00:02:51,589 --> 00:02:47,519 southern part of china 64 00:02:55,030 --> 00:02:51,599 so in terms of their demonstration and 65 00:02:57,670 --> 00:02:55,040 then the third uh their test 66 00:03:01,910 --> 00:02:57,680 so this is an 67 00:03:04,630 --> 00:03:01,920 eastern province of china and here is 68 00:03:07,589 --> 00:03:04,640 their shanghai and this is the young 69 00:03:11,030 --> 00:03:07,599 river so over there there were there is 70 00:03:14,309 --> 00:03:11,040 a city this city is believed to be close 71 00:03:17,670 --> 00:03:14,319 to the hometown of their gifted child 72 00:03:20,470 --> 00:03:17,680 and then i worked in shanghai for 73 00:03:23,190 --> 00:03:20,480 several years and the most of the cities 74 00:03:26,390 --> 00:03:23,200 by the southern part of this yeah where 75 00:03:30,830 --> 00:03:27,910 so uh 76 00:03:33,350 --> 00:03:30,840 okay so this uh the 77 00:03:37,750 --> 00:03:33,360 uh demonstration 78 00:03:39,910 --> 00:03:37,760 a city called the yangzhou where it has 79 00:03:42,229 --> 00:03:39,920 maybe uh several thousand years of 80 00:03:45,509 --> 00:03:42,239 history and it 81 00:03:49,270 --> 00:03:45,519 it has a large lake and by the river so 82 00:03:51,910 --> 00:03:49,280 it was rich in terms of the literature's 83 00:03:56,070 --> 00:03:51,920 cultures so that was believed to be 84 00:03:57,750 --> 00:03:56,080 where it is close to their 15 years old 85 00:03:59,190 --> 00:03:57,760 gifted child 86 00:04:02,390 --> 00:03:59,200 and their 87 00:04:06,149 --> 00:04:02,400 third the third demonstration was done 88 00:04:09,030 --> 00:04:06,159 in this city called the woo sea it's uh 89 00:04:15,350 --> 00:04:09,040 yeah it's also by a large lake along 90 00:04:17,670 --> 00:04:16,229 and 91 00:04:23,350 --> 00:04:17,680 the 92 00:04:27,749 --> 00:04:23,360 in this 93 00:04:30,950 --> 00:04:27,759 uh uh capital city of hainan province in 94 00:04:33,590 --> 00:04:30,960 the southern part of china which 95 00:04:35,909 --> 00:04:33,600 has a street from the mainland and so 96 00:04:38,550 --> 00:04:35,919 this is the capital city where is this 97 00:04:42,070 --> 00:04:38,560 like that and then at very southern 98 00:04:45,670 --> 00:04:42,080 border there was actually a nuclear the 99 00:04:47,909 --> 00:04:45,680 submarine base of chinese army so that's 100 00:04:50,710 --> 00:04:47,919 where they're right now so there are 101 00:04:52,390 --> 00:04:50,720 actually a lot of projects over there 102 00:04:54,310 --> 00:04:52,400 just uh 103 00:04:55,990 --> 00:04:54,320 off the western there the military 104 00:04:58,230 --> 00:04:56,000 projects over there so but you can see 105 00:05:00,950 --> 00:04:58,240 this submarine over there 106 00:05:03,909 --> 00:05:00,960 so this is and so here is the capital 107 00:05:08,550 --> 00:05:03,919 city and right by over here it's a 108 00:05:09,590 --> 00:05:08,560 tourism city so just like miami like so 109 00:05:13,110 --> 00:05:09,600 so that's 110 00:05:16,390 --> 00:05:13,120 so there so this capital city was where 111 00:05:19,110 --> 00:05:16,400 the kid was invited for the first the 112 00:05:21,350 --> 00:05:19,120 laboratory double blind test 113 00:05:24,550 --> 00:05:21,360 and then in terms of the sample 114 00:05:27,830 --> 00:05:24,560 preparation this was the information 115 00:05:29,909 --> 00:05:27,840 that the friend of the lead also 116 00:05:33,830 --> 00:05:29,919 in beijing she 117 00:05:37,110 --> 00:05:33,840 generated using excel random and 118 00:05:40,310 --> 00:05:37,120 generation their function for generator 119 00:05:41,189 --> 00:05:40,320 there are five codes kids the keys and 120 00:05:42,390 --> 00:05:41,199 those 121 00:05:47,029 --> 00:05:42,400 key were 122 00:05:49,350 --> 00:05:47,039 comprised of their 26 123 00:05:52,390 --> 00:05:49,360 the alphabetical 124 00:05:56,070 --> 00:05:52,400 24 i guess alphabetical and then all 125 00:06:00,790 --> 00:05:56,080 their characters and the 10 the 126 00:06:03,990 --> 00:06:00,800 arabic numbers total of 34 possibilities 127 00:06:08,309 --> 00:06:04,000 for each code and then five calls and 128 00:06:12,309 --> 00:06:08,319 then printed on an a4 size paper so 129 00:06:15,909 --> 00:06:12,319 those multiple the lines and then 130 00:06:19,029 --> 00:06:15,919 cut them and then fold them to nine to 131 00:06:20,710 --> 00:06:19,039 ten and basically folds to completely 132 00:06:21,990 --> 00:06:20,720 seal that 133 00:06:24,950 --> 00:06:22,000 and then 134 00:06:28,230 --> 00:06:24,960 so the other one was also 135 00:06:31,909 --> 00:06:28,240 uh basically stapled after it was sealed 136 00:06:35,590 --> 00:06:31,919 and then it was stapled on both sides so 137 00:06:40,309 --> 00:06:35,600 and then also i believe before ceiling 138 00:06:44,309 --> 00:06:40,319 they also had one part being peered off 139 00:06:46,950 --> 00:06:44,319 to make it a unique irregular key just 140 00:06:50,390 --> 00:06:46,960 like ancient military the combined was 141 00:06:54,390 --> 00:06:50,400 using basically to add additional 142 00:06:57,909 --> 00:06:54,400 measures to prevent the following the 143 00:06:59,990 --> 00:06:57,919 practices and also on site when the 144 00:07:01,749 --> 00:07:00,000 authors were 145 00:07:04,950 --> 00:07:01,759 conducting the measurement and the 146 00:07:05,830 --> 00:07:04,960 laboratory experiments they also hand 147 00:07:08,469 --> 00:07:05,840 wrote 148 00:07:11,350 --> 00:07:08,479 numbers unique numbers on those to 149 00:07:15,510 --> 00:07:11,360 basically safeguard the uniqueness of 150 00:07:19,110 --> 00:07:17,430 to make sure that the experiment was 151 00:07:23,670 --> 00:07:19,120 right 152 00:07:25,830 --> 00:07:23,680 so and over here so this was so 153 00:07:30,309 --> 00:07:25,840 um 154 00:07:33,830 --> 00:07:30,319 uh i so i i had access to one of the 155 00:07:35,110 --> 00:07:33,840 videos this was a screenshot of a couple 156 00:07:38,870 --> 00:07:35,120 of video 157 00:07:42,550 --> 00:07:38,880 uh video there the the moments but i 158 00:07:45,510 --> 00:07:42,560 discussed the experimenter and also 159 00:07:48,790 --> 00:07:45,520 they're one of the also over there and 160 00:07:51,270 --> 00:07:48,800 also describes this and so 161 00:07:54,150 --> 00:07:51,280 just um pause that for this but that's 162 00:07:56,869 --> 00:07:54,160 the best the maximum that i can show and 163 00:07:58,790 --> 00:07:56,879 share with you guys and but according to 164 00:08:01,350 --> 00:07:58,800 my understanding and the communication 165 00:08:03,430 --> 00:08:01,360 this was how it was done so it was done 166 00:08:06,710 --> 00:08:03,440 in a suit like 167 00:08:09,029 --> 00:08:06,720 the hotel rooms so the leader also will 168 00:08:11,430 --> 00:08:09,039 will be in the inner room and then there 169 00:08:14,070 --> 00:08:11,440 are in there in the outer room and the 170 00:08:16,309 --> 00:08:14,080 living room you will have a table have 171 00:08:18,710 --> 00:08:16,319 the kids sitting over here have some 172 00:08:20,309 --> 00:08:18,720 samples over here they have a camera and 173 00:08:22,710 --> 00:08:20,319 other surveillance 174 00:08:24,869 --> 00:08:22,720 being just over here to make a 175 00:08:28,230 --> 00:08:24,879 continuous surveillance 176 00:08:30,710 --> 00:08:28,240 and that kid was about 14 to 15 years 177 00:08:33,190 --> 00:08:30,720 old and then the name appearing in the 178 00:08:36,949 --> 00:08:33,200 paper was disgraced 179 00:08:39,350 --> 00:08:36,959 she was introduced to the leader also by 180 00:08:42,389 --> 00:08:39,360 the second author they happen to have 181 00:08:45,030 --> 00:08:42,399 the same last name but i do not know if 182 00:08:47,590 --> 00:08:45,040 they have any their family relationship 183 00:08:48,310 --> 00:08:47,600 and then was also assisted 184 00:08:51,110 --> 00:08:48,320 in 185 00:08:54,870 --> 00:08:51,120 by the third officer and so 186 00:08:57,190 --> 00:08:54,880 so in one places by this gentleman 187 00:08:58,550 --> 00:08:57,200 another place is by the gentlemen or at 188 00:09:01,269 --> 00:08:58,560 least the two 189 00:09:03,110 --> 00:09:01,279 gentlemens and then also the kid was 190 00:09:04,470 --> 00:09:03,120 apparently accompanied the twitter 191 00:09:07,110 --> 00:09:04,480 testing 192 00:09:10,070 --> 00:09:07,120 site by her parents 193 00:09:14,070 --> 00:09:10,080 and then they were no one to have 194 00:09:19,110 --> 00:09:16,949 and then in terms of the results in the 195 00:09:21,269 --> 00:09:19,120 analysis it we 196 00:09:24,150 --> 00:09:21,279 needed to come up with they needed to 197 00:09:27,030 --> 00:09:24,160 come up with some objective measures so 198 00:09:29,990 --> 00:09:27,040 i i suggest them to use this called the 199 00:09:32,310 --> 00:09:30,000 merit of match or marriage of imaginance 200 00:09:35,910 --> 00:09:32,320 essentially we have a five character 201 00:09:39,110 --> 00:09:35,920 codes and then any code that matches 202 00:09:40,470 --> 00:09:39,120 will give a number of one any 203 00:09:44,949 --> 00:09:40,480 not matching 204 00:09:48,310 --> 00:09:44,959 so in this case it's two 205 00:09:50,790 --> 00:09:48,320 uh codes two digits of the codes they 206 00:09:54,070 --> 00:09:50,800 match so this will come up just sum them 207 00:09:57,110 --> 00:09:54,080 up this will give a total number of two 208 00:10:01,190 --> 00:09:57,120 so this would come up with any number of 209 00:10:03,670 --> 00:10:01,200 zero no match at all or five which is a 210 00:10:06,710 --> 00:10:03,680 complete match 211 00:10:09,430 --> 00:10:06,720 over here so the trial begins by 212 00:10:11,190 --> 00:10:09,440 basically their kid was asked to do the 213 00:10:13,350 --> 00:10:11,200 trial and then 214 00:10:16,310 --> 00:10:13,360 and then so just 215 00:10:19,030 --> 00:10:16,320 either pick up their being given by a 216 00:10:21,350 --> 00:10:19,040 random nutrition sample by the examiners 217 00:10:24,710 --> 00:10:21,360 or sometimes the kid will pick up her 218 00:10:26,790 --> 00:10:24,720 own and then just get into their state 219 00:10:29,910 --> 00:10:26,800 and then try to 220 00:10:32,389 --> 00:10:29,920 try to sketch write down a reading and 221 00:10:35,430 --> 00:10:32,399 then the reading was checked after each 222 00:10:38,230 --> 00:10:35,440 trial to give the agent the feedback and 223 00:10:40,710 --> 00:10:38,240 then would start the next trial so each 224 00:10:42,310 --> 00:10:40,720 trial was completed with with the 225 00:10:45,590 --> 00:10:42,320 confirmation 226 00:10:47,430 --> 00:10:45,600 of correct or not so the agent had a 227 00:10:50,710 --> 00:10:47,440 feedback 228 00:10:52,790 --> 00:10:50,720 and then so let's let me go through this 229 00:10:55,190 --> 00:10:52,800 there are the results so 230 00:10:57,590 --> 00:10:55,200 so the paper presented the testing 231 00:11:00,310 --> 00:10:57,600 result first and the demonstration in 232 00:11:03,110 --> 00:11:00,320 the discussion but i would like to just 233 00:11:05,590 --> 00:11:03,120 show here the disc the demonstration 234 00:11:08,550 --> 00:11:05,600 when the leader officer met there the 235 00:11:11,430 --> 00:11:08,560 the the girl at the very first time and 236 00:11:14,069 --> 00:11:11,440 gave her three tasks and this sample was 237 00:11:17,190 --> 00:11:14,079 prepared single blinded they just by the 238 00:11:18,710 --> 00:11:17,200 by the lead officer and now so this was 239 00:11:20,870 --> 00:11:18,720 the first code 240 00:11:23,190 --> 00:11:20,880 and then the second the code and then 241 00:11:25,750 --> 00:11:23,200 the third code was 242 00:11:28,230 --> 00:11:25,760 a deliberate remain the same as the 243 00:11:30,710 --> 00:11:28,240 first one and then the region of that 244 00:11:33,990 --> 00:11:30,720 was discussed in the discussion 245 00:11:36,470 --> 00:11:34,000 and then the first one took the kid 246 00:11:37,910 --> 00:11:36,480 about over half an hour it was a 247 00:11:41,590 --> 00:11:37,920 complete match 248 00:11:45,350 --> 00:11:41,600 the second one took six minutes 249 00:11:49,110 --> 00:11:45,360 of one digit and third one was also a 250 00:11:50,550 --> 00:11:49,120 complete match so this gave the authors 251 00:11:53,110 --> 00:11:50,560 their their 252 00:11:55,269 --> 00:11:53,120 their confidence to move ahead 253 00:11:57,590 --> 00:11:55,279 so and then so 254 00:12:01,110 --> 00:11:57,600 later on so the kid and then to the 255 00:12:03,190 --> 00:12:01,120 leader also he funded the the the work 256 00:12:06,790 --> 00:12:03,200 so their kid and her parents were 257 00:12:09,829 --> 00:12:06,800 invited to this uh the hainan province 258 00:12:13,430 --> 00:12:09,839 to do their tests and for this test it 259 00:12:16,790 --> 00:12:13,440 had 16 trials came up with three 260 00:12:22,470 --> 00:12:21,430 and then this was a few months later and 261 00:12:25,430 --> 00:12:22,480 so 262 00:12:28,470 --> 00:12:25,440 in the in the city that was close to the 263 00:12:32,710 --> 00:12:28,480 kids hong kong they conducted another 264 00:12:36,150 --> 00:12:32,720 trial of 18 at the trials and then there 265 00:12:40,150 --> 00:12:36,160 were two completed matches and this 266 00:12:43,110 --> 00:12:40,160 could be considered as declining 267 00:12:46,150 --> 00:12:43,120 so uh when these 268 00:12:50,150 --> 00:12:46,160 numbers were put together essentially 269 00:12:54,470 --> 00:12:50,160 only we counted their double blind tests 270 00:12:59,190 --> 00:12:54,480 a total of 34 trials five digits and 271 00:13:01,910 --> 00:12:59,200 then 34 permutations per position so 272 00:13:04,790 --> 00:13:01,920 when you put them together and they came 273 00:13:07,110 --> 00:13:04,800 up with a full hit of five times and 274 00:13:09,990 --> 00:13:07,120 then if you put this into a binomial 275 00:13:12,870 --> 00:13:10,000 distribution their alls were 276 00:13:15,509 --> 00:13:12,880 significantly below this this number but 277 00:13:18,790 --> 00:13:15,519 we just registered this number 278 00:13:21,030 --> 00:13:18,800 so it was uh basically not 279 00:13:22,710 --> 00:13:21,040 explainable by any any chance 280 00:13:23,590 --> 00:13:22,720 expectation 281 00:13:26,710 --> 00:13:23,600 and 282 00:13:28,949 --> 00:13:26,720 in terms of my involvement so i 283 00:13:31,509 --> 00:13:28,959 personally i never met 284 00:13:34,030 --> 00:13:31,519 any of the authors in person but i 285 00:13:37,829 --> 00:13:34,040 believe shane approached me around early 286 00:13:38,790 --> 00:13:37,839 2021 i believe was he was suggested by 287 00:13:40,550 --> 00:13:38,800 dr 288 00:13:44,150 --> 00:13:40,560 lopez 289 00:13:47,189 --> 00:13:44,160 and then this is edwin may so this is 290 00:13:50,069 --> 00:13:47,199 the lead ulcer and then so basically so 291 00:13:54,150 --> 00:13:50,079 they know each other and then so i think 292 00:13:56,310 --> 00:13:54,160 by by dr jah he introduced to me and 293 00:13:59,430 --> 00:13:56,320 then so i had a communication with the 294 00:14:01,189 --> 00:13:59,440 lead officer over the times after that 295 00:14:03,750 --> 00:14:01,199 and about the shin 296 00:14:05,590 --> 00:14:03,760 his hearing is significantly impaired 297 00:14:08,150 --> 00:14:05,600 very difficult to 298 00:14:10,230 --> 00:14:08,160 have a live communication he also had 299 00:14:12,470 --> 00:14:10,240 broken his bone 300 00:14:15,189 --> 00:14:12,480 some time ago recovered but they're not 301 00:14:17,829 --> 00:14:15,199 in very good health conditions so he 302 00:14:20,470 --> 00:14:17,839 discussed the cases with me and we also 303 00:14:23,990 --> 00:14:20,480 discussed many other other 304 00:14:26,790 --> 00:14:24,000 tests he did over there in china and we 305 00:14:29,670 --> 00:14:26,800 mostly part we had a consensus and he 306 00:14:32,389 --> 00:14:29,680 later saw my comments on this manuscript 307 00:14:35,750 --> 00:14:32,399 and then after i saw the manuscript i 308 00:14:38,870 --> 00:14:35,760 saw the revision their request and then 309 00:14:40,790 --> 00:14:38,880 guidance from jsc i agreed to help 310 00:14:44,550 --> 00:14:40,800 and then so we 311 00:14:47,829 --> 00:14:44,560 introduced this result analysis rewrote 312 00:14:50,389 --> 00:14:47,839 their entire manuscript and then after 313 00:14:53,110 --> 00:14:50,399 two more rounds of revision and then it 314 00:14:56,710 --> 00:14:53,120 was published but i did decline the 315 00:15:00,949 --> 00:14:56,720 co-authorship but i was behind the final 316 00:15:04,230 --> 00:15:00,959 version so with this i also like to just 317 00:15:06,949 --> 00:15:04,240 introduce this i'm having this book with 318 00:15:09,829 --> 00:15:06,959 me and then so i recently got this book 319 00:15:13,670 --> 00:15:09,839 it was so fascinating and it was written 320 00:15:16,310 --> 00:15:13,680 by mary rose barrenton and she was a 321 00:15:18,470 --> 00:15:16,320 british parapsychologist 322 00:15:22,470 --> 00:15:18,480 and it looked like a password last year 323 00:15:25,350 --> 00:15:22,480 and then this is there was ian 324 00:15:27,910 --> 00:15:25,360 stevenson we all know founder of the 325 00:15:30,790 --> 00:15:27,920 division of perceptive studies in 326 00:15:33,509 --> 00:15:30,800 university of virginia and there was a 327 00:15:38,030 --> 00:15:33,519 geofia 328 00:15:42,150 --> 00:15:38,040 weaver she is a native of poland so they 329 00:15:45,670 --> 00:15:42,160 documented this very fascinating stories 330 00:15:48,550 --> 00:15:45,680 of this polish engineer and at the high 331 00:15:51,590 --> 00:15:48,560 social stand and it turns so that 332 00:15:54,069 --> 00:15:51,600 engineer according to the book he 333 00:15:56,470 --> 00:15:54,079 i think he was born in russia and had a 334 00:15:59,910 --> 00:15:56,480 successful business in russia but later 335 00:16:05,030 --> 00:15:59,920 returned to poland and the likely killed 336 00:16:06,269 --> 00:16:05,040 by nazis around 1943 or 1944 and then he 337 00:16:08,550 --> 00:16:06,279 had 338 00:16:09,509 --> 00:16:08,560 extraordinary the 339 00:16:11,590 --> 00:16:09,519 um 340 00:16:14,629 --> 00:16:11,600 the abilities of 341 00:16:15,990 --> 00:16:14,639 psychometry and the client violence so 342 00:16:19,509 --> 00:16:16,000 this many 343 00:16:22,389 --> 00:16:19,519 people with very high social standards 344 00:16:25,590 --> 00:16:22,399 and then they were involved in testing 345 00:16:27,829 --> 00:16:25,600 him over there particularly joseph 346 00:16:30,790 --> 00:16:27,839 pierce sardisk he was the command 347 00:16:33,509 --> 00:16:30,800 military combined of poland in world war 348 00:16:35,910 --> 00:16:33,519 one and later ahead of the state and 349 00:16:37,990 --> 00:16:35,920 then charles richard 350 00:16:41,910 --> 00:16:38,000 won the nobel prize in physiology in 351 00:16:44,710 --> 00:16:41,920 1913 so and they were all just involved 352 00:16:48,629 --> 00:16:44,720 in conducting the studies on this 353 00:16:52,310 --> 00:16:48,639 gentleman's ability and then some were 354 00:16:54,150 --> 00:16:52,320 this book documented most of them 355 00:16:56,150 --> 00:16:54,160 probably half of them were double blind 356 00:16:58,790 --> 00:16:56,160 studies and there are also some single 357 00:17:01,030 --> 00:16:58,800 blind due to the conditions that it just 358 00:17:02,150 --> 00:17:01,040 couldn't prepare in advance 359 00:17:04,309 --> 00:17:02,160 and there 360 00:17:07,110 --> 00:17:04,319 and also it wasn't done during the time 361 00:17:08,150 --> 00:17:07,120 when french was the language of the 362 00:17:11,110 --> 00:17:08,160 science 363 00:17:12,789 --> 00:17:11,120 so but over here here are some so there 364 00:17:15,189 --> 00:17:12,799 are the psychometry part i don't want to 365 00:17:18,949 --> 00:17:15,199 talk about but the cloud violence apart 366 00:17:21,990 --> 00:17:18,959 basically there uh this stephen had to 367 00:17:24,230 --> 00:17:22,000 identify the ceo the targets either 368 00:17:26,549 --> 00:17:24,240 sketch them just by sketching them and 369 00:17:29,750 --> 00:17:26,559 you can see over here all those are 370 00:17:32,789 --> 00:17:29,760 marked with this orange triangle over 371 00:17:35,350 --> 00:17:32,799 there the ones scheduled by this stephen 372 00:17:38,230 --> 00:17:35,360 and all the other was the original one 373 00:17:40,470 --> 00:17:38,240 that was basically disclosed after the 374 00:17:43,110 --> 00:17:40,480 stephen made the sketches 375 00:17:45,750 --> 00:17:43,120 and you can see that 376 00:17:47,270 --> 00:17:45,760 so this is a there are some that were 377 00:17:48,470 --> 00:17:47,280 extraordinarily 378 00:17:49,270 --> 00:17:48,480 uh 379 00:17:50,390 --> 00:17:49,280 just 380 00:17:51,909 --> 00:17:50,400 a match 381 00:17:54,789 --> 00:17:51,919 and here are 382 00:17:57,350 --> 00:17:54,799 so this i what i took over here 383 00:17:59,750 --> 00:17:57,360 photographed from the book was were not 384 00:18:02,150 --> 00:17:59,760 all there are there were others okay but 385 00:18:03,669 --> 00:18:02,160 those were some very representative 386 00:18:05,430 --> 00:18:03,679 stuff 387 00:18:19,430 --> 00:18:05,440 and 388 00:18:22,150 --> 00:18:19,440 was sealed in a lead a small lead 389 00:18:24,789 --> 00:18:22,160 container and then when the reading 390 00:18:27,430 --> 00:18:24,799 was done and then the container was 391 00:18:30,870 --> 00:18:27,440 basically cut open and then so the 392 00:18:34,230 --> 00:18:30,880 original sample was taken out to 393 00:18:35,029 --> 00:18:34,240 examine their their the reading so 394 00:18:38,070 --> 00:18:35,039 they're 395 00:18:40,830 --> 00:18:38,080 from the red cards itself it's also just 396 00:18:42,549 --> 00:18:40,840 the experiments were impeccable to my 397 00:18:46,470 --> 00:18:42,559 understanding 398 00:18:48,710 --> 00:18:46,480 and then so so so i as an engineer i i 399 00:18:51,190 --> 00:18:48,720 often like to see what's going on over 400 00:18:53,549 --> 00:18:51,200 here so one of the one of the favorite 401 00:18:56,310 --> 00:18:53,559 quote that i like to have is from 402 00:18:58,870 --> 00:18:56,320 jacksonville he mentioned that the side 403 00:18:59,909 --> 00:18:58,880 research should lead not to follow 404 00:19:01,990 --> 00:18:59,919 physics 405 00:19:04,710 --> 00:19:02,000 and on the other hand yesterday i was 406 00:19:09,190 --> 00:19:04,720 watching more and i found this edward 407 00:19:11,909 --> 00:19:09,200 kelly of dopes his their kids the quotes 408 00:19:13,830 --> 00:19:11,919 was somehow resonating with me so he 409 00:19:15,990 --> 00:19:13,840 said that the soldier 410 00:19:17,909 --> 00:19:16,000 first to take home lesson certainly he 411 00:19:21,830 --> 00:19:17,919 was associated with near-death 412 00:19:25,190 --> 00:19:21,840 experiences but he was in the rhine lab 413 00:19:27,750 --> 00:19:25,200 before so he knew other side or 414 00:19:30,870 --> 00:19:27,760 something related to what we would 415 00:19:32,390 --> 00:19:30,880 discuss today he is he mentioned that in 416 00:19:34,470 --> 00:19:32,400 a general sense 417 00:19:37,350 --> 00:19:34,480 so he said that the first take-home 418 00:19:40,390 --> 00:19:37,360 lesson is whether we like it or not 419 00:19:43,510 --> 00:19:40,400 science phenomena exist as effects of 420 00:19:46,789 --> 00:19:43,520 nature and the science is going to have 421 00:19:50,150 --> 00:19:46,799 to grip with the fact of that somehow 422 00:19:51,510 --> 00:19:50,160 i think we all agree upon this 423 00:19:55,590 --> 00:19:51,520 and but 424 00:19:58,150 --> 00:19:55,600 so this book also it has a record of 425 00:20:01,350 --> 00:19:58,160 stephen's own words and ed stephen he 426 00:20:03,350 --> 00:20:01,360 himself was an engineer i think he was a 427 00:20:05,750 --> 00:20:03,360 chemical engineer probably 428 00:20:08,149 --> 00:20:05,760 he would not only he was very 429 00:20:11,590 --> 00:20:08,159 cooperative on the experiments he would 430 00:20:14,789 --> 00:20:11,600 also try to get his own idea of what was 431 00:20:17,350 --> 00:20:14,799 actually going on so there are about 432 00:20:19,590 --> 00:20:17,360 maybe about two pages of materials 433 00:20:22,070 --> 00:20:19,600 written by himself and then here are 434 00:20:24,789 --> 00:20:22,080 some very important stuff and i like to 435 00:20:26,470 --> 00:20:24,799 share with anyone who has interest but 436 00:20:28,230 --> 00:20:26,480 not yet 437 00:20:32,070 --> 00:20:28,240 having read this book 438 00:20:35,350 --> 00:20:32,080 so stephen mentioned that i start 439 00:20:38,310 --> 00:20:35,360 by inhibiting the reasoning process and 440 00:20:41,270 --> 00:20:38,320 concentrating on my inner forces and i 441 00:20:42,390 --> 00:20:41,280 threw myself into a world of spiritual 442 00:20:45,669 --> 00:20:42,400 feeling 443 00:20:49,029 --> 00:20:45,679 i am sure that this conditions is 444 00:20:52,310 --> 00:20:49,039 brought about by my unshakeable face in 445 00:20:53,510 --> 00:20:52,320 the spiritual unity of of humanity 446 00:20:57,350 --> 00:20:53,520 then 447 00:21:01,350 --> 00:20:57,360 and i find myself in a new special state 448 00:21:04,390 --> 00:21:01,360 where i see or i bear sins i hear things 449 00:21:07,830 --> 00:21:04,400 right outside the time in the space 450 00:21:11,110 --> 00:21:07,840 so whether i read or conceal the target 451 00:21:13,750 --> 00:21:11,120 or find a lost article or do psychometry 452 00:21:15,990 --> 00:21:13,760 my sensations are almost the same 453 00:21:18,470 --> 00:21:16,000 apparently i lose a certain amount of 454 00:21:21,430 --> 00:21:18,480 energy my temperature goes up and my 455 00:21:23,990 --> 00:21:21,440 heart a bit becomes irregular a feature 456 00:21:27,270 --> 00:21:24,000 that confirms this impression is that as 457 00:21:29,750 --> 00:21:27,280 soon as i stop sinking it feels as if a 458 00:21:32,710 --> 00:21:29,760 surge of electrical flows through my 459 00:21:36,070 --> 00:21:32,720 extremities for a few 460 00:21:38,390 --> 00:21:36,080 uh seconds something okay i mean this 461 00:21:41,510 --> 00:21:38,400 lasts a moment then the true state of 462 00:21:44,710 --> 00:21:41,520 immunity takes hold of me pictures rise 463 00:21:46,789 --> 00:21:44,720 up in front of me usually by of the past 464 00:21:50,950 --> 00:21:46,799 i see the man who wrote the letter and 465 00:21:52,230 --> 00:21:50,960 the know what so just continue to go 466 00:21:55,549 --> 00:21:52,240 and 467 00:21:57,990 --> 00:21:55,559 okay increa incredibility 468 00:22:00,710 --> 00:21:58,000 skepticism or even attention 469 00:22:03,669 --> 00:22:00,720 concentrated too closely on my person 470 00:22:04,470 --> 00:22:03,679 can block a quick and successful result 471 00:22:06,710 --> 00:22:04,480 or 472 00:22:09,830 --> 00:22:06,720 the perception 473 00:22:12,950 --> 00:22:09,840 so this part is highly related to sheep 474 00:22:15,110 --> 00:22:12,960 or gold all their their influences of 475 00:22:16,070 --> 00:22:15,120 their their basically their 476 00:22:17,909 --> 00:22:16,080 uh 477 00:22:20,230 --> 00:22:17,919 side to them 478 00:22:22,870 --> 00:22:20,240 the person around the human when he was 479 00:22:25,830 --> 00:22:22,880 performing that in the wasa 480 00:22:27,830 --> 00:22:25,840 psychiatrical the society and the other 481 00:22:30,630 --> 00:22:27,840 scientists over there were it was 482 00:22:33,270 --> 00:22:30,640 supporting and he had a great success so 483 00:22:34,470 --> 00:22:33,280 he was mentioning about that 484 00:22:38,149 --> 00:22:34,480 and 485 00:22:40,710 --> 00:22:38,159 in this the gsc paper so so 486 00:22:44,630 --> 00:22:40,720 also there this paper also mentioned 487 00:22:46,789 --> 00:22:44,640 some of their uh readings of men self 488 00:22:50,390 --> 00:22:46,799 mentioning of the process by their by 489 00:22:54,630 --> 00:22:50,400 the kid and that was uh uh 490 00:22:57,669 --> 00:22:54,640 accepted by their video clips of 491 00:22:59,029 --> 00:22:57,679 after conducting one of the one of the 492 00:23:02,390 --> 00:22:59,039 full match 493 00:23:05,110 --> 00:23:02,400 and the girl mentioned that she was able 494 00:23:07,750 --> 00:23:05,120 to get enough focus on the reading the 495 00:23:09,830 --> 00:23:07,760 characters would appear on the so-called 496 00:23:12,630 --> 00:23:09,840 third eye region will be somewhere over 497 00:23:15,270 --> 00:23:12,640 here which is in the anterior domain or 498 00:23:17,029 --> 00:23:15,280 in the ceiling of the frontal lobe the 499 00:23:19,990 --> 00:23:17,039 characters would appear once but they 500 00:23:21,750 --> 00:23:20,000 were unstable and then so but it was 501 00:23:24,310 --> 00:23:21,760 unstable okay 502 00:23:27,430 --> 00:23:24,320 so over here so 503 00:23:29,870 --> 00:23:27,440 so with this and in the paper we put 504 00:23:32,630 --> 00:23:29,880 that we regarded this after sensory 505 00:23:35,350 --> 00:23:32,640 identification against a visual sensory 506 00:23:38,390 --> 00:23:35,360 barrier as a manifestation of 507 00:23:40,630 --> 00:23:38,400 information acquisition using channels 508 00:23:43,029 --> 00:23:40,640 that are not yet known 509 00:23:45,269 --> 00:23:43,039 basically via an alternative a channel 510 00:23:47,510 --> 00:23:45,279 of information transfer 511 00:23:49,350 --> 00:23:47,520 so i had this idea 512 00:23:51,350 --> 00:23:49,360 and so 513 00:23:54,390 --> 00:23:51,360 so there is something going on between 514 00:23:57,190 --> 00:23:54,400 the side between the live person between 515 00:24:00,549 --> 00:23:57,200 the person has to get into a certain 516 00:24:03,590 --> 00:24:00,559 certain way of accessing or entering the 517 00:24:06,549 --> 00:24:03,600 information so what actually is going on 518 00:24:09,190 --> 00:24:06,559 so i just decide them off this edward 519 00:24:10,549 --> 00:24:09,200 kelly's words this was not the true 520 00:24:11,430 --> 00:24:10,559 kelly okay 521 00:24:14,310 --> 00:24:11,440 but 522 00:24:15,350 --> 00:24:14,320 he mentioned something inherently larger 523 00:24:18,789 --> 00:24:15,360 than 524 00:24:21,350 --> 00:24:18,799 normally no would over overflow the 525 00:24:24,310 --> 00:24:21,360 organism in some sense okay and then 526 00:24:26,710 --> 00:24:24,320 come back to basically um 527 00:24:29,350 --> 00:24:26,720 kind of control the brain and the sense 528 00:24:33,190 --> 00:24:29,360 but here is also another important quote 529 00:24:35,990 --> 00:24:33,200 from robert jane in his 1994 interview 530 00:24:37,750 --> 00:24:36,000 he was projecting a resonance between 531 00:24:40,230 --> 00:24:37,760 the information 532 00:24:42,630 --> 00:24:40,240 processor that's in the device and the 533 00:24:46,149 --> 00:24:42,640 information process that we carry in our 534 00:24:49,110 --> 00:24:46,159 mind he certainly was regarding to the 535 00:24:50,470 --> 00:24:49,120 to the influence of consciousness under 536 00:24:53,350 --> 00:24:50,480 rug but 537 00:24:55,750 --> 00:24:53,360 how much is that different from because 538 00:24:58,870 --> 00:24:55,760 it's said eventually it's uh it's a 539 00:25:01,750 --> 00:24:58,880 connection or interaction between mind 540 00:25:02,630 --> 00:25:01,760 and a matter of physical matter 541 00:25:04,149 --> 00:25:02,640 so 542 00:25:05,269 --> 00:25:04,159 i to me 543 00:25:06,549 --> 00:25:05,279 i would 544 00:25:09,909 --> 00:25:06,559 like to 545 00:25:12,310 --> 00:25:09,919 and all project or hypothesize that 546 00:25:15,110 --> 00:25:12,320 there might have a so-called resonant 547 00:25:18,070 --> 00:25:15,120 state of consciousness which may be 548 00:25:20,710 --> 00:25:18,080 associated with associated or 549 00:25:22,870 --> 00:25:20,720 alternative state of consciousness but i 550 00:25:25,909 --> 00:25:22,880 consider that it might be a unique way 551 00:25:29,510 --> 00:25:25,919 of attuning a special 552 00:25:32,310 --> 00:25:29,520 numbers or groups of over some of our 553 00:25:35,510 --> 00:25:32,320 our brains where all just uh the world 554 00:25:38,710 --> 00:25:35,520 consciousness somehow it will appear and 555 00:25:41,269 --> 00:25:38,720 then that when we enter that state by 556 00:25:44,950 --> 00:25:41,279 some kind of feedback like meditation 557 00:25:47,190 --> 00:25:44,960 hypnosis whatsoever and then it could 558 00:25:50,230 --> 00:25:47,200 somehow come back to modulate our 559 00:25:52,710 --> 00:25:50,240 sensory response and then this sensory 560 00:25:55,590 --> 00:25:52,720 response modulation could potentially 561 00:25:57,990 --> 00:25:55,600 couple different centuries they're the 562 00:26:00,870 --> 00:25:58,000 systems and they may also make it more 563 00:26:03,269 --> 00:26:00,880 sensitized and when this happens those 564 00:26:04,950 --> 00:26:03,279 can all be at the physical levels but 565 00:26:08,310 --> 00:26:04,960 when that happens 566 00:26:12,310 --> 00:26:08,320 maybe in a very unique way there they 567 00:26:13,590 --> 00:26:12,320 could be able to access some alternative 568 00:26:15,269 --> 00:26:13,600 information 569 00:26:17,909 --> 00:26:15,279 so that's 570 00:26:21,350 --> 00:26:17,919 it's uh something that i would like to 571 00:26:22,390 --> 00:26:21,360 see if it's any way possible okay 572 00:26:25,029 --> 00:26:22,400 so 573 00:26:28,470 --> 00:26:25,039 that is my brief 574 00:26:31,110 --> 00:26:28,480 basically the review of the things i i 575 00:26:34,390 --> 00:26:31,120 have been just fascinating me and then i 576 00:26:36,789 --> 00:26:34,400 hope that this can elicit the other 577 00:26:39,909 --> 00:26:36,799 thoughts and then let's all work 578 00:26:41,590 --> 00:26:39,919 together try to just 579 00:26:45,669 --> 00:26:41,600 just know a little bit more of what's 580 00:26:47,750 --> 00:26:45,679 actually going on inside okay so when i 581 00:26:49,110 --> 00:26:47,760 when you were talking about the the 582 00:26:51,110 --> 00:26:49,120 polish 583 00:26:53,909 --> 00:26:51,120 uh practitioner 584 00:26:56,549 --> 00:26:53,919 i was kind of taken by the description 585 00:26:58,630 --> 00:26:56,559 of the how the process worked for him 586 00:27:01,350 --> 00:26:58,640 particularly particularly this 587 00:27:04,230 --> 00:27:01,360 discussion about heat 588 00:27:07,590 --> 00:27:04,240 and about vibration 589 00:27:09,590 --> 00:27:07,600 and i found that similar to 590 00:27:10,789 --> 00:27:09,600 discussions that i have seen 591 00:27:12,390 --> 00:27:10,799 um 592 00:27:15,110 --> 00:27:12,400 about uh 593 00:27:16,789 --> 00:27:15,120 out-of-body experiences 594 00:27:19,590 --> 00:27:16,799 or also 595 00:27:22,789 --> 00:27:19,600 some of the subjective experiences of 596 00:27:24,389 --> 00:27:22,799 people who have done for instance monroe 597 00:27:27,669 --> 00:27:24,399 institute 598 00:27:30,789 --> 00:27:27,679 um that that there's kind of a similar 599 00:27:33,590 --> 00:27:30,799 sensation in the body and also sometimes 600 00:27:36,070 --> 00:27:33,600 we get this in in subtle medicine 601 00:27:37,909 --> 00:27:36,080 um i was wondering 602 00:27:40,310 --> 00:27:37,919 if you have anything 603 00:27:42,710 --> 00:27:40,320 to say about 604 00:27:45,750 --> 00:27:42,720 subtle bodies or energy and if maybe 605 00:27:46,830 --> 00:27:45,760 that might be something that plays into 606 00:27:48,630 --> 00:27:46,840 this kind of 607 00:27:51,590 --> 00:27:48,640 experience 608 00:27:54,710 --> 00:27:51,600 well i always say i can only 609 00:27:57,750 --> 00:27:54,720 um project uh 610 00:27:59,909 --> 00:27:57,760 my what might happen and to my view they 611 00:28:03,190 --> 00:27:59,919 are all connected but in which way they 612 00:28:06,470 --> 00:28:03,200 are connected would be very different or 613 00:28:09,510 --> 00:28:06,480 difficult to understand and in terms of 614 00:28:12,789 --> 00:28:09,520 the heat or heating that the stephen 615 00:28:15,110 --> 00:28:12,799 mentioned i believe that was his own 616 00:28:17,110 --> 00:28:15,120 uh their perception by the weather his 617 00:28:19,350 --> 00:28:17,120 body was heated up body temperature 618 00:28:21,990 --> 00:28:19,360 there is a change or not that was really 619 00:28:25,190 --> 00:28:22,000 really really we don't know but 620 00:28:28,389 --> 00:28:25,200 uh coming back to this um 621 00:28:32,070 --> 00:28:28,399 this is the century of perceptive there 622 00:28:35,590 --> 00:28:32,080 changes over the course of this 623 00:28:41,350 --> 00:28:35,600 side demonstration if we could somehow 624 00:28:45,110 --> 00:28:43,590 sympathetic or neuron or whatever 625 00:28:47,830 --> 00:28:45,120 control there might be that will 626 00:28:50,870 --> 00:28:47,840 definitely come back to modulate to 627 00:28:53,350 --> 00:28:50,880 change our physiology so i would be 628 00:28:56,710 --> 00:28:53,360 there it would not be surprising at all 629 00:28:57,590 --> 00:28:56,720 that during that period that time our 630 00:28:59,909 --> 00:28:57,600 body 631 00:29:02,789 --> 00:28:59,919 not only feels different but also if 632 00:29:05,510 --> 00:29:02,799 there is any kind of bio energy that is 633 00:29:07,669 --> 00:29:05,520 being produced or changed then it will 634 00:29:11,750 --> 00:29:07,679 also have a correlative 635 00:29:14,230 --> 00:29:11,760 presentation and i myself had an extreme 636 00:29:17,029 --> 00:29:14,240 uh their their stress conditions when i 637 00:29:19,909 --> 00:29:17,039 was asking a question to 638 00:29:22,149 --> 00:29:19,919 uh the former korean ambassador to u.s 639 00:29:25,430 --> 00:29:22,159 when he was presenting in their into in 640 00:29:28,870 --> 00:29:25,440 myanmar martin and i had an extremely 641 00:29:31,190 --> 00:29:28,880 crucifying pain at my back and the man 642 00:29:33,590 --> 00:29:31,200 lower lower the 643 00:29:36,950 --> 00:29:33,600 the back part just because i was so 644 00:29:39,110 --> 00:29:36,960 stressful and then so that just it was 645 00:29:41,269 --> 00:29:39,120 extremely painful i couldn't move and 646 00:29:43,830 --> 00:29:41,279 then it was gone when when the stress 647 00:29:46,310 --> 00:29:43,840 was gone so that gives me just 648 00:29:48,789 --> 00:29:46,320 understanding that our body and our 649 00:29:51,909 --> 00:29:48,799 consciousness or whatever it is how much 650 00:29:54,470 --> 00:29:51,919 modulation can either do for our body 651 00:29:57,510 --> 00:29:54,480 itself and then that would involve a 652 00:30:01,669 --> 00:29:57,520 significant amount of energy 653 00:30:03,990 --> 00:30:01,679 vitality and then that will if that can 654 00:30:06,470 --> 00:30:04,000 produce any bio energy i'm not saying 655 00:30:09,269 --> 00:30:06,480 that it will produce bioenergy by 656 00:30:12,470 --> 00:30:09,279 producing any type of something we could 657 00:30:16,549 --> 00:30:12,480 emit or generate a change of that it 658 00:30:20,230 --> 00:30:18,470 thank you 659 00:30:21,669 --> 00:30:20,240 so 660 00:30:23,110 --> 00:30:21,679 we're starting to get a few questions in 661 00:30:24,310 --> 00:30:23,120 but i i was wondering because you know 662 00:30:26,230 --> 00:30:24,320 we've 663 00:30:29,510 --> 00:30:26,240 you and i have discussed before in other 664 00:30:31,269 --> 00:30:29,520 venues uh about finger reading 665 00:30:34,710 --> 00:30:31,279 and i wonder if you could say a little 666 00:30:37,269 --> 00:30:34,720 bit more about the the the participant 667 00:30:38,789 --> 00:30:37,279 and the study that we see in the jfc or 668 00:30:40,870 --> 00:30:38,799 even more about how 669 00:30:43,590 --> 00:30:40,880 subjects are recruited 670 00:30:46,470 --> 00:30:43,600 uh for these kinds of studies 671 00:30:49,590 --> 00:30:46,480 okay so i talked with the lead officer 672 00:30:52,389 --> 00:30:49,600 and then i asked him how many um 673 00:30:56,149 --> 00:30:52,399 basically so how many this kind of would 674 00:30:59,430 --> 00:30:56,159 give to the the person he was able to 675 00:31:01,509 --> 00:30:59,440 confirm and he mentioned that so i the 676 00:31:04,549 --> 00:31:01,519 leader also actually published a paper 677 00:31:07,029 --> 00:31:04,559 in jsc around 2010 i believe a short 678 00:31:08,070 --> 00:31:07,039 paper and over there 679 00:31:22,070 --> 00:31:08,080 he 680 00:31:23,110 --> 00:31:22,080 years 681 00:31:25,509 --> 00:31:23,120 and 682 00:31:29,269 --> 00:31:25,519 according to him he knows 683 00:31:32,149 --> 00:31:29,279 one more which had even greater ability 684 00:31:33,909 --> 00:31:32,159 better just for the shake and then 685 00:31:36,549 --> 00:31:33,919 cannot be 686 00:31:38,070 --> 00:31:36,559 um publicized as it is 687 00:31:41,430 --> 00:31:38,080 and so 688 00:31:45,190 --> 00:31:41,440 there was so so it's very difficult to 689 00:31:48,389 --> 00:31:45,200 identify because there were so there 690 00:31:52,310 --> 00:31:48,399 the society field in china in there it's 691 00:31:54,630 --> 00:31:52,320 kind of it's so much contaminated by the 692 00:31:58,389 --> 00:31:54,640 fraudulent practices 693 00:32:01,590 --> 00:31:58,399 so it was very difficult to identify and 694 00:32:04,789 --> 00:32:01,600 confirm and also do experimental studies 695 00:32:07,430 --> 00:32:04,799 like this so etc this was the only one 696 00:32:10,310 --> 00:32:07,440 he was able to identify over the last 10 697 00:32:12,950 --> 00:32:10,320 years that was also why i after i saw 698 00:32:16,549 --> 00:32:12,960 this material i felt that i if i could 699 00:32:17,669 --> 00:32:16,559 help i needed to to help so 700 00:32:18,630 --> 00:32:17,679 yeah 701 00:32:20,310 --> 00:32:18,640 all right 702 00:32:22,789 --> 00:32:20,320 um so i don't know if you know this but 703 00:32:24,230 --> 00:32:22,799 sofia weaver one of the co-authors in 704 00:32:26,630 --> 00:32:24,240 the book that you've been discussing is 705 00:32:28,389 --> 00:32:26,640 actually in the audience 706 00:32:31,269 --> 00:32:28,399 and she said it's delighted to know that 707 00:32:33,590 --> 00:32:31,279 the book is still regarded as relevant 708 00:32:36,950 --> 00:32:33,600 uh and in the key way the q and a 709 00:32:39,269 --> 00:32:36,960 there's also question um for sophia so 710 00:32:41,509 --> 00:32:39,279 uh sophia if if you are inclined uh 711 00:32:44,470 --> 00:32:41,519 please we i welcome you to raise your 712 00:32:45,830 --> 00:32:44,480 hand and we can bring you on stage uh in 713 00:32:47,830 --> 00:32:45,840 the meantime there's a question in the 714 00:32:50,310 --> 00:32:47,840 chat which i'm going to go ahead and 715 00:32:52,630 --> 00:32:50,320 show on stage 716 00:32:55,350 --> 00:32:52,640 it says uh dr pian my question is 717 00:32:57,029 --> 00:32:55,360 whether slight changes in the set and 718 00:32:59,830 --> 00:32:57,039 setting or habit 719 00:33:02,230 --> 00:32:59,840 may help or impair participants ability 720 00:33:05,430 --> 00:33:02,240 to read the character strings for 721 00:33:08,310 --> 00:33:05,440 example where it is positioned whether 722 00:33:11,350 --> 00:33:08,320 the material is written on paper versus 723 00:33:13,269 --> 00:33:11,360 digital form 724 00:33:15,190 --> 00:33:13,279 okay so uh 725 00:33:16,789 --> 00:33:15,200 i only had 726 00:33:19,669 --> 00:33:16,799 so first i was 727 00:33:21,990 --> 00:33:19,679 not involved in any part of experiments 728 00:33:24,950 --> 00:33:22,000 i was only involved in revising the 729 00:33:26,149 --> 00:33:24,960 paper and doing the re-analysis 730 00:33:29,350 --> 00:33:26,159 and i was 731 00:33:32,149 --> 00:33:29,360 given access to only one video of the 732 00:33:35,110 --> 00:33:32,159 interview after one success for four 733 00:33:36,389 --> 00:33:35,120 match so i can only project information 734 00:33:40,149 --> 00:33:36,399 from there 735 00:33:43,509 --> 00:33:40,159 and that video was about 25 minutes long 736 00:33:46,870 --> 00:33:43,519 it contained that entire process from 737 00:33:49,909 --> 00:33:46,880 begin basically ending of one previous 738 00:33:53,830 --> 00:33:49,919 and step basically an entire process of 739 00:33:56,149 --> 00:33:53,840 one reading and so it's it's lengthy and 740 00:33:57,029 --> 00:33:56,159 there are a lot of interactions over 741 00:33:57,990 --> 00:33:57,039 there 742 00:34:00,870 --> 00:33:58,000 and 743 00:34:02,870 --> 00:34:00,880 i think the setting 744 00:34:06,070 --> 00:34:02,880 it really depends upon what we are so 745 00:34:09,750 --> 00:34:06,080 from that video those all those samples 746 00:34:12,710 --> 00:34:09,760 uh it's put so they are all basically 747 00:34:15,750 --> 00:34:12,720 they were all staples into a small flash 748 00:34:17,510 --> 00:34:15,760 drive as sides all those samples and 749 00:34:20,470 --> 00:34:17,520 then basically 750 00:34:23,270 --> 00:34:20,480 several maybe 2030 they were in a small 751 00:34:25,829 --> 00:34:23,280 bowl and put over there on the table and 752 00:34:28,550 --> 00:34:25,839 the dance or the kid we were just 753 00:34:30,710 --> 00:34:28,560 sometimes it's their their assistant he 754 00:34:32,069 --> 00:34:30,720 pick up one or sometimes there's a kid 755 00:34:34,950 --> 00:34:32,079 just just 756 00:34:38,470 --> 00:34:34,960 try to suffer through and pick one out 757 00:34:41,030 --> 00:34:38,480 and uh this is this is later on but at 758 00:34:44,389 --> 00:34:41,040 the early yeah this something like this 759 00:34:45,510 --> 00:34:44,399 okay and then here whether she would 760 00:34:48,470 --> 00:34:45,520 just um 761 00:34:51,909 --> 00:34:48,480 like this just use her finger to do this 762 00:34:53,909 --> 00:34:51,919 a little bit and then so sometimes 763 00:34:56,069 --> 00:34:53,919 they're wandering around something like 764 00:34:58,470 --> 00:34:56,079 that but apparent so basically she 765 00:34:59,430 --> 00:34:58,480 needed some kind of 766 00:35:01,589 --> 00:34:59,440 um 767 00:35:03,510 --> 00:35:01,599 access but there was one thing that's 768 00:35:05,829 --> 00:35:03,520 very interesting because 769 00:35:08,150 --> 00:35:05,839 um 770 00:35:10,230 --> 00:35:08,160 so this was boring okay you can see it 771 00:35:13,589 --> 00:35:10,240 was a very boring task 772 00:35:15,349 --> 00:35:13,599 and the kid was only 14 15 years old so 773 00:35:18,790 --> 00:35:15,359 at the very beginning at the very 774 00:35:22,390 --> 00:35:18,800 beginning she would basically try to try 775 00:35:25,349 --> 00:35:22,400 to because when the sample was taken out 776 00:35:27,349 --> 00:35:25,359 and then she was not allowed to touch it 777 00:35:29,589 --> 00:35:27,359 at the very beginning the beginning the 778 00:35:31,670 --> 00:35:29,599 earlier measurement the test 779 00:35:35,109 --> 00:35:31,680 but later on 780 00:35:38,230 --> 00:35:35,119 after the trust was established results 781 00:35:39,589 --> 00:35:38,240 came out and then later on she would try 782 00:35:49,109 --> 00:35:39,599 to 783 00:35:52,069 --> 00:35:49,119 and then so that just gave her fast 784 00:35:54,069 --> 00:35:52,079 access and then the examiner would ask 785 00:35:56,069 --> 00:35:54,079 her why you wanted to touch she said i 786 00:35:58,470 --> 00:35:56,079 just want to get this time to go out to 787 00:35:59,430 --> 00:35:58,480 play 788 00:36:05,510 --> 00:35:59,440 so 789 00:36:07,589 --> 00:36:05,520 talking about the how she was accessed 790 00:36:10,870 --> 00:36:07,599 to the sample and this was the only 791 00:36:14,470 --> 00:36:10,880 information i had but in terms of 792 00:36:17,270 --> 00:36:14,480 how their calls or which kind of objects 793 00:36:19,910 --> 00:36:17,280 were sealed what's the series 794 00:36:23,349 --> 00:36:19,920 what's the process of a ceiling 795 00:36:28,550 --> 00:36:23,359 i don't think that matters 796 00:36:33,030 --> 00:36:28,560 if such kind of the phenomena or ability 797 00:36:34,790 --> 00:36:33,040 is a true phenomenon because if the dots 798 00:36:38,550 --> 00:36:34,800 access their 799 00:36:41,190 --> 00:36:38,560 information or by overcoming the barrier 800 00:36:43,750 --> 00:36:41,200 as we normally know and then 801 00:36:46,710 --> 00:36:43,760 none of the physical barriers will be 802 00:36:48,069 --> 00:36:46,720 able to block that information so that's 803 00:36:51,910 --> 00:36:48,079 my owen 804 00:36:53,589 --> 00:36:51,920 owen perspective and thank you 805 00:36:55,270 --> 00:36:53,599 i find it interesting though that the 806 00:36:57,349 --> 00:36:55,280 subject said that she 807 00:37:00,150 --> 00:36:57,359 really wanted to touch 808 00:37:03,109 --> 00:37:00,160 the the target what kind of 809 00:37:05,750 --> 00:37:03,119 uh you know sensory barriers or what 810 00:37:08,550 --> 00:37:05,760 kind of controls did were in place 811 00:37:11,349 --> 00:37:08,560 uh to prevent cheating in that case 812 00:37:13,990 --> 00:37:11,359 well that one i don't know but uh but i 813 00:37:17,030 --> 00:37:14,000 believe in this field we all know about 814 00:37:20,829 --> 00:37:17,040 the what the thermal vision kind of 815 00:37:25,270 --> 00:37:20,839 experiments did earlier on so if a 816 00:37:27,910 --> 00:37:25,280 touching can provide an access to that 817 00:37:30,710 --> 00:37:27,920 information by whichever means that part 818 00:37:31,750 --> 00:37:30,720 i think is in agreement with this 819 00:37:34,150 --> 00:37:31,760 thermal 820 00:37:37,990 --> 00:37:34,160 vision experiments that have been done 821 00:37:43,910 --> 00:37:38,000 by so many people over so many years 822 00:37:47,589 --> 00:37:45,270 can you hear me 823 00:37:51,750 --> 00:37:47,599 yes i can hear you also okay no i was 824 00:37:54,870 --> 00:37:51,760 just going to say i i agree um 825 00:37:57,990 --> 00:37:54,880 i think it's very much to do with 826 00:38:00,390 --> 00:37:58,000 the mindset of the person of the 827 00:38:03,030 --> 00:38:00,400 clairvoyant um 828 00:38:05,910 --> 00:38:03,040 what they are comfortable with i mean 829 00:38:08,950 --> 00:38:05,920 osovietsky firmly believed for a long 830 00:38:11,829 --> 00:38:08,960 time that he couldn't read print 831 00:38:14,310 --> 00:38:11,839 turned out that he could but it was a 832 00:38:17,270 --> 00:38:14,320 barrier that he had to overcome in his 833 00:38:19,510 --> 00:38:17,280 own mind rather than 834 00:38:22,390 --> 00:38:19,520 existing barriers so i think that 835 00:38:25,589 --> 00:38:22,400 applies to to most clairvoyants that i 836 00:38:28,710 --> 00:38:25,599 have studied uh it's it's the mindset 837 00:38:31,910 --> 00:38:28,720 that they bring with them and that's the 838 00:38:34,069 --> 00:38:31,920 main thing that inhibits any any 839 00:38:35,030 --> 00:38:34,079 developments 840 00:38:40,630 --> 00:38:35,040 thank you 841 00:38:44,470 --> 00:38:42,550 sophia i wonder if i might keep you on 842 00:38:47,030 --> 00:38:44,480 stage for another moment for our very 843 00:38:48,950 --> 00:38:47,040 last question thank you okay the 844 00:38:51,030 --> 00:38:48,960 question is what types of probabilities 845 00:38:54,550 --> 00:38:51,040 against chance did the young chinese 846 00:38:55,589 --> 00:38:54,560 woman versus the polish engineer achieve 847 00:38:57,829 --> 00:38:55,599 well 848 00:39:01,190 --> 00:38:57,839 i think chances 849 00:39:04,310 --> 00:39:01,200 are something that can be worked out 850 00:39:06,470 --> 00:39:04,320 if you have a framework uh like they do 851 00:39:10,150 --> 00:39:06,480 with remote viewing 852 00:39:11,750 --> 00:39:10,160 uh where they have um 853 00:39:15,990 --> 00:39:11,760 set of targets 854 00:39:19,589 --> 00:39:16,000 and then they can judge the hits against 855 00:39:22,230 --> 00:39:19,599 misses and work out um 856 00:39:25,030 --> 00:39:22,240 the the result that way i think it's 857 00:39:26,150 --> 00:39:25,040 much easier to do with 858 00:39:28,069 --> 00:39:26,160 numbers 859 00:39:29,910 --> 00:39:28,079 than with uh 860 00:39:32,790 --> 00:39:29,920 basically what was 861 00:39:33,510 --> 00:39:32,800 a life situation in 862 00:39:35,270 --> 00:39:33,520 in 863 00:39:39,589 --> 00:39:35,280 the case of the polish 864 00:39:41,990 --> 00:39:39,599 of polish engineer and risha did try to 865 00:39:45,349 --> 00:39:42,000 work out the probability 866 00:39:46,630 --> 00:39:45,359 of uh oswitsky getting hits the way he 867 00:39:48,870 --> 00:39:46,640 did 868 00:39:52,470 --> 00:39:48,880 and of course he ended up with 869 00:39:56,550 --> 00:39:52,480 basically infinity um but 870 00:40:01,109 --> 00:39:56,560 it wasn't really the kind of probability 871 00:40:03,109 --> 00:40:01,119 working out that that we are used to now 872 00:40:04,710 --> 00:40:03,119 i hope that helped no that's very 873 00:40:06,390 --> 00:40:04,720 helpful thank you duchene what's your 874 00:40:07,349 --> 00:40:06,400 take on the question 875 00:40:10,790 --> 00:40:07,359 uh 876 00:40:13,349 --> 00:40:10,800 well so this probability i think if 877 00:40:16,309 --> 00:40:13,359 there is a definitive probability just 878 00:40:19,430 --> 00:40:16,319 like these numbers and the characters 879 00:40:21,270 --> 00:40:19,440 which there is a known and their total 880 00:40:23,430 --> 00:40:21,280 amount of permutations and this 881 00:40:25,829 --> 00:40:23,440 probability can be 882 00:40:26,870 --> 00:40:25,839 assessed objectively as we have over 883 00:40:28,710 --> 00:40:26,880 here 884 00:40:31,829 --> 00:40:28,720 and but uh 885 00:40:34,309 --> 00:40:31,839 so there is so the probability of the 886 00:40:36,470 --> 00:40:34,319 polish engineer it's a little bit 887 00:40:39,910 --> 00:40:36,480 difficult to assess because that's 888 00:40:42,470 --> 00:40:39,920 mainly kind of a video their 889 00:40:45,270 --> 00:40:42,480 information of a shape or that type of 890 00:40:48,150 --> 00:40:45,280 stuff but that type of probability 891 00:40:50,870 --> 00:40:48,160 actually the it's a in terms of 892 00:40:53,670 --> 00:40:50,880 information transfer there is no one way 893 00:40:56,630 --> 00:40:53,680 to assess that and actually that part 894 00:40:59,750 --> 00:40:56,640 has actually been done in china in about 895 00:41:01,910 --> 00:40:59,760 40 years ago there were people uh there 896 00:41:05,670 --> 00:41:01,920 is studying that 897 00:41:08,470 --> 00:41:05,680 what's the reliability of information at 898 00:41:11,430 --> 00:41:08,480 that base particularly a spatial pattern 899 00:41:14,230 --> 00:41:11,440 that can be picked up by their client 900 00:41:16,470 --> 00:41:14,240 variant or people that who can access 901 00:41:18,150 --> 00:41:16,480 that information by something like this 902 00:41:21,670 --> 00:41:18,160 finger reading whatsoever we want to 903 00:41:23,349 --> 00:41:21,680 call that and then surprisingly so that 904 00:41:26,150 --> 00:41:23,359 and that part of 905 00:41:27,670 --> 00:41:26,160 the the assessment is there is a name 906 00:41:30,069 --> 00:41:27,680 called standard name called the 907 00:41:32,630 --> 00:41:30,079 modulation transfer function which is 908 00:41:34,390 --> 00:41:32,640 used to identify how good this camera 909 00:41:37,190 --> 00:41:34,400 system is identical 910 00:41:40,230 --> 00:41:37,200 over there it was found that this kind 911 00:41:42,069 --> 00:41:40,240 of psi ability is good at picking up 912 00:41:46,790 --> 00:41:42,079 information that is not 913 00:41:50,710 --> 00:41:46,800 not very highly detailed but also not 914 00:41:54,390 --> 00:41:50,720 very plain so which means uh for example 915 00:41:57,670 --> 00:41:54,400 i have a paper over here which has very 916 00:42:00,230 --> 00:41:57,680 detailed sketches and the very fine 917 00:42:02,950 --> 00:42:00,240 lines they cannot pick up but if i have 918 00:42:05,589 --> 00:42:02,960 a plain paper like this they couldn't 919 00:42:06,550 --> 00:42:05,599 find other either which give me an idea 920 00:42:08,870 --> 00:42:06,560 that 921 00:42:10,870 --> 00:42:08,880 it's a plain paper there was no 922 00:42:14,870 --> 00:42:10,880 interesting information there so they 923 00:42:17,910 --> 00:42:14,880 couldn't pick it up but if just like 924 00:42:19,109 --> 00:42:17,920 our camera if the line is too 925 00:42:24,870 --> 00:42:19,119 too 926 00:42:29,190 --> 00:42:24,880 there is the resolution issue so there's 927 00:42:31,750 --> 00:42:29,200 that study so given a curve like this 928 00:42:32,710 --> 00:42:31,760 somewhere in the middle not 929 00:42:39,109 --> 00:42:32,720 very 930 00:42:40,950 --> 00:42:39,119 that would agree with that there is some 931 00:42:42,870 --> 00:42:40,960 kind of information 932 00:42:45,990 --> 00:42:42,880 transfer there 933 00:42:46,870 --> 00:42:46,000 that does break the physical barrier but 934 00:42:51,870 --> 00:42:46,880 that 935 00:42:54,950 --> 00:42:51,880 transferred does not 936 00:42:57,829 --> 00:42:54,960 disagree with our known physics it's 937 00:43:00,630 --> 00:42:57,839 just a matter of how it's transferred 938 00:43:03,910 --> 00:43:00,640 and then which kind of information that 939 00:43:05,270 --> 00:43:03,920 is being accessed so i would say there's 940 00:43:08,069 --> 00:43:05,280 defense 941 00:43:10,550 --> 00:43:08,079 that are informed that the chance 942 00:43:12,390 --> 00:43:10,560 capabilities um 943 00:43:16,470 --> 00:43:12,400 is not as 944 00:43:18,630 --> 00:43:16,480 direct as this 15-year kid he her 945 00:43:21,349 --> 00:43:18,640 information the chance probability we 946 00:43:24,790 --> 00:43:21,359 could project over there 947 00:43:28,150 --> 00:43:24,800 that probability needs to be assessed 948 00:43:30,950 --> 00:43:28,160 according to this standard if we could 949 00:43:33,589 --> 00:43:30,960 bring him back alive to redo the test 950 00:43:37,109 --> 00:43:33,599 and then can be assessed by this type of 951 00:43:39,910 --> 00:43:37,119 standard approach which is used also to 952 00:43:43,349 --> 00:43:39,920 compare modality by modality in medical 953 00:43:45,270 --> 00:43:43,359 imaging ultrasound mri ct it was done in 954 00:43:46,870 --> 00:43:45,280 this way standard away 955 00:43:49,750 --> 00:43:46,880 so there are something over there we 956 00:43:52,309 --> 00:43:49,760 just needed to implement to this field 957 00:43:54,790 --> 00:43:52,319 to make it stronger scientifically more 958 00:43:57,190 --> 00:43:54,800 sound so thank you very much thank you 959 00:43:59,829 --> 00:43:57,200 sophia do you have anything else to add 960 00:44:02,230 --> 00:43:59,839 um no i don't think that i have found 961 00:44:04,710 --> 00:44:02,240 that very interesting and i'm really i'm 962 00:44:06,950 --> 00:44:04,720 really glad somebody noticed osovietsky 963 00:44:09,670 --> 00:44:06,960 again because 964 00:44:12,150 --> 00:44:09,680 we tend in parapsychology we tend to 965 00:44:14,950 --> 00:44:12,160 start all over again and forget 966 00:44:17,349 --> 00:44:14,960 everything that went before and i really 967 00:44:19,510 --> 00:44:17,359 like historical things 968 00:44:22,710 --> 00:44:19,520 thank you that was very interesting and 969 00:44:25,109 --> 00:44:22,720 margaret has sent me a message and 970 00:44:28,710 --> 00:44:25,119 i will read i've got the message and i 971 00:44:29,670 --> 00:44:28,720 will reply with the information so but i 972 00:44:35,030 --> 00:44:29,680 i 973 00:44:38,550 --> 00:44:36,790 yeah okay 974 00:44:40,790 --> 00:44:38,560 thank you for joining us 975 00:44:44,550 --> 00:44:40,800 pleasure 976 00:44:47,030 --> 00:44:44,560 okay well that is it for our q a and for 977 00:44:49,030 --> 00:44:47,040 our questions so uh thank you again for
