Psi phenomena such as clairvoyance / remote viewing (RV), precognition, and out-of-body experiences (OOB, OOBE) are usually associated with altered states such as hypnotic or psychedelic trance, dreaming, or even coma. But, is it really necessary to be in such a state to experience psi?

In the last 50 years, silicon-transistor-based computing has been evolving at a steady pace marked by the biannual doubling of the number of transistors per microchip (Moore's law). However, the size of transistors is now approaching that of the silicon atoms that make up them, and this miniaturization-based improvement is coming to an end so that it is time to look for alternative ways to further increase computer power. One of these alternatives is quantum computing technology, which is already being commercialized (although it is still in its infancy) and is causing euphoria, as evidenced by the fact that new articles are published every day discussing its incredible potential. But, are we aware of all the wonders that it will bring about and the ultra-transcendental changes in our vision of the world that it will produce?

Psioneirology has been up and running already for 9 months and I have decided that it is time to perform a statistical evaluation of my precognitive experience.

There is quite a rich variety of mental states, including alertness, wakefulness, hypnagogia, meditation, trance, hypnosis, deep sleep, rapid eye movements (REM) sleep, lucid dreaming, out-of-body experiences (OOBE, OBE), and drug-altered states. One might ask, does extrasensory perception such as precognition and clairvoyance require getting into a particular one? Or is there any state especially favorable for inducing precognition and clairvoyance such that anyone could obtain on-demand precognitive/clairvoyant visions? It turns out that PSI can be experienced in most of these states, although one of them provides particularly good results.

Parapsychology has been traditionally ignored by mainstream science. Could it be time for that to change?

It has been given multiple names. The most used ones are variants of universal or cosmic consciousness or mind. Psychologist Carl Jung called it the Collective Unconscious. One of the fathers of quantum mechanics, Erwin Schrödinger was obsessed with the concept of Brahman used in the Sanskrit writings of the Upanishads. The physicist, engineer, and inventor Nikola Tesla and the philosopher Erwin Laszlo popularized the terms Akasha, also borrowed from ancient Sanskrit philosophy. The Chinese call it Tao. Even the concept of God, present in every culture appears to refer to the same entity.

QUANTUM NEWS

I believe that the current physical theories will eventually evolve to converge with the existing knowledge about psi. That is why I am researching how the latest physical discoveries could be related to psi. Apart from generating specialized articles about this topic separately, I will be posting in this file the latest news about quantum entanglement, quantum computing, time reversal in quantum systems, quantum biology/consciousness, the theory of everything, etc.

There is more than sufficient bibliography proving the existence of precognition, clairvoyance, and psi in general, including in mainstream peer-reviewed journals. But why most people still doubt their existence?

There are several must-read books about precognitive dreams which I will review briefly below.

A number of people had premonitions about the Aberfan disaster before it occurred in 1966. That inspired the creation of the British Premonitions Bureau

Psioneirology’s database is a premonition registry. The idea of creating registries to record multiple premonitions before they come true is probably centuries old. In the last 50 years or so, at least ten such registries have been created but none of them has gained much popularity and currently only one of them is active. It is worth having a look at their features in order to understand what is the cause of that lack of success.
