SRV Lesson 6 Transcript
Now that you have completed your first ideogram drills, you may want to continue to drill a bit longer by yourself for approximately 15 or 20 minutes. If ever, during your sessions of remote viewing, you find that all of your ideograms are looking the same, then you're experiencing what is called an ideogram rut, and you need to break out of that ideogram rut. And in order to do that, you practice your drills for a few minutes. Normally, 10 or 15 minutes of extra drilling of your ideograms using a variety of different ideograms is usually enough to break out of the rut and to free you up for continuing with your sessions. Again, this only happens a few times, and it doesn't happen to everyone. And when it does happen, it probably will not happen more than once or twice, so it's not something that occurs regularly. But if it ever does happen to you, just a few extra minutes of drilling will help break out of that rut should it occur. Now, other than the ideograms which we have already practiced, that gives you an established vocabulary to begin with, you will find that you will develop other ideograms that will be very individual to you. Such ideograms do not have any set pattern, and they indeed can vary widely from person to person. Ideograms for such things are drilled not by telling the student what the ideogram looks like, but just by repeating the gestalt, as we did for the ideogram for movement, allowing the ideogram to form naturally. And we saw how the ideogram for movement and also energetics settled down into a set pattern very quickly. Also, person or subject ideograms are often very individualistic in this regard. That's why some subject ideograms look like a loop that is crossed at the bottom, whereas other people draw subject ideograms that look more like a circle. Again, there will be that individualistic component. Ideograms will vary from person to person, but what is most important is for each viewer to be able to recognize his or her own ideograms. We are now going to move into a new subject, and that subject is that of deductions. Deductions can occur at any time during a remote viewing session. What do you do if the conscious mind makes a high-level guess as to what the identity of a target or a target fragment is? That guess is called a deduction. Basically, your conscious mind is watching, as a passive observer, the flow of data as it is coming in through the subspace mind and being recorded with your pen. And from time to time, while it's watching this equivalent of a motion picture of data coming in, it makes a guess, saying, Oh, I know what this is. This is that, or this is the other thing. And it tries to label or identify what that is that it's perceiving. Well, this deduction has two components. First, it is a conclusion, as in, to deduce, that the conscious mind makes regarding the target. Now, the conscious mind is basically watching the data as it flows in, and it needs very little information before it can leap into the process as a very, very eager and willing participant, if it is allowed to do so. And it leaps into this process with this guess as to the meaning of the data. This conclusion that it makes can sometimes be exactly correct, but you will never know, as the viewer, if the target identity or the identity of the target fragment, in fact, is correct until the end of the session. Very often, deductions have some part of their meaning that is correct, but you can never know which part. This leads to the second component of the meaning of the word deduction, and that is subtraction. The deduction may be correct, it may be partially correct, but you will never know what that is. But it can threaten to throw the entire session off if it is not removed from the data collection process. Most deductions are incorrect, but they almost always have some small aspect that is very telling with regard to what the actual meaning for the target is. Because of this small aspect that may be correct, your conscious mind is more than willing to grab onto it and say, this is the target, and then to produce a large and sometimes very elaborate story that follows. And that story that follows and fills up the rest of the session is just totally wrong. To avoid this is extremely important in a remote viewing session. Thus, when that deduction occurs, you've got to get rid of it right there and then, whether it is right or whether it is wrong. To get rid of this high-level conclusion that the conscious mind has made allows the rest of the session to proceed at a normal pace and without that contamination of that conclusion. Remember that we want to collect the data as innocently as possible with almost no analysis or interpretation during the process. Let me give an example of a deduction that could be partially correct. If the target is the destruction of, say, the Hindenburg blimp, well, it follows that a kite, a balloon, fireworks, or perhaps even the Challenger space shuttle explosion could all be deductions. The idea of a kite captures the notion that the Hindenburg flew. The balloon reflects the structure of the blimp. Fireworks reflect the explosion that resulted in the destruction of the Hindenburg. And the Challenger space shuttle explosion identifies the idea that an airborne vehicle carrying passengers exploded, causing loss of life. Do not worry about the inaccuracies that are inherent in deductions. Remember, deductions are not remote-viewing data. They are guesses made by the conscious mind, and they are nothing more than that. However, deductions can be very useful when analyzing the data after the session is over. Deductions do sometimes convey important meaning about a target that is difficult to express in other words. For example, someone could be remote-viewing a slave labor camp, say, during the time of the pharaohs, and they could give Auschwitz as a deduction. Now, such a deduction has many parallels with the actual target. Jews were the subject of slavery, repression, misery, and death in both settings. But, more important, the analyst may be alerted to the magnitude of the misery that was experienced in Egyptian slave labor camps through the deduction of Auschwitz. This could be useful in interpreting the remainder of the session should the viewer describe extreme levels of suffering among the actual target subjects. Regardless of the potential accuracy of deductions, they must be eliminated from the flow of the data. To accomplish this, the viewer writes the capital letter D, followed by a dash, and the description of the deduction, and that's all done on the right-hand side of the piece of paper. Thus, the deduction that I just mentioned could be written as capital D dash Auschwitz. Now, following this, the viewer must put the pen down on the table for one or more seconds. Putting the pen down, releasing it from the hand, is an action that breaks the flow of the data from the subspace mind, and this allows the impression that was made on the conscious mind, due to the deduction, to dissipate. After a few moments, the viewer picks up the pen and continues with the session. Again, we are introducing you to the idea of deductions because they can occur at any time in the session, including in phase one. Now we want to proceed with our very first remote viewing session. I'm going to step you through, one last time, CSP, the Consciousness Settling Procedure. After this session, you will be expected to do CSP by yourself before every remote viewing session. So let us relax now. Advanced remote viewers do CSP with their shoes off. Socks are okay. Thus, while it is not required for beginning students in remote viewing to remove their shoes, it might be something you want to get into the habit of doing at an early stage, if you feel comfortable doing that. So let us get ready to do our session with CSP. We begin by sitting comfortably in silence with the eyes closed for 30 seconds. Do that now while you continue to listen to the lesson. I will time you. We sit comfortably in silence with our eyes closed for 30 seconds. Now we want to begin the brief body massage. We start by gently massaging our face, putting the hands on the face, gently pressing up over the top of the head, down the back of the neck, towards the front, and down towards the heart. Now men begin by massaging their right side, while women begin by massaging their left hand and arm. So you grab the appropriate hand and start massaging, gently pressing up the arm, over the shoulder, and down towards the heart. Then you massage the other hand, up the arm, gently pressing, and over the shoulder and down towards the heart. And now we massage the feet. You start by massaging the foot. One foot, men beginning with the right, women beginning with the left, using both hands to massage the foot gently, then up the calf of the leg, up the thigh, and over in front, up towards the heart. And then we massage the other leg, starting with the foot, up the calf, the thigh, and up towards the heart. All right. Again, this is best done with the eyes closed, but it can also be done with the eyes open. Now we begin with our breathing, pranayama. Again, men use their right hand for pranayama, while women use their left. You take the thumb of the hand you're using, and close one nostril, breathing out, and then breathing in, normal breaths, and then use the middle finger to close the other nostril, while you open the first one, and breathe out, normal breaths, and in, a normal breath, and then switch nostrils again, breathing out and in from each nostril, one at a time. Again, normal breaths, not hyperventilating, not very deep breaths, just normal, outward, inward, and then changing nostrils. Let's do that for ten minutes. I will time you. Begin now. Be sure to complete both the outward and the inward breath before switching nostrils. Ideally, the inhaling breath should take about half the time as the exhaling breath. Breathe normally. Breathe gently. You are just alternating nostrils after each outward and inward breath. It is best to do pranayama with the eyes closed. It is not required, but it is best. Feel free to do what feels most natural. Pranayama should always be effortless and gentle. If you need more air, simply take deeper breaths, but do not hyperventilate. Breathe normally while continuing to alternate your nostrils. If it feels comfortable for you, you can hold your breath after inhaling for a brief moment, such as a second or two, before closing the other nostril and exhaling. Always remember to breathe at a normal pace, gently, effortlessly. With pranayama, it's always best to sit with your back straight. . Close our eyes and sit comfortably for a few minutes. Let's do that now. We are no longer doing pranayama. Now we are just sitting comfortably and closing our eyes, breathing normally for a few minutes. I will time you. Spend a few moments opening your eyes gently. You can now move on to the next lesson where we will begin our first scientific remote viewing session. Remember to recite the SRV affirmation before you begin the lesson.
