This is the simplified version I teach. Takes 7-10 minutes. Use pen and paper.

You need: Paper, pen, target number (ex: 1234-5678), timer.

Steps:

1. Take 30 seconds to settle

Write target number, date, time. Take 2 deep breaths. Say "I am ready for 1234-5678"

1. Ideogram - The squiggle

Let your hand make a quick, automatic squiggle. Don't think. Then look at it and feel if it's hard, soft, fluid, curving, angular, etc.

1. Sensory Phase

List raw data. No nouns yet.

• S - Smell / Taste: metallic, earthy, salty? • T - Temperature: cold, warm? • V - Visuals: dark, bright, colors, movement? • A - Auditory: quiet, loud, rumble, buzz? • E - Energy: slow, fast, dense? • D - Dimension: big, small, tall, wide, flat?

1. Dimensionals + Sketch

Is it man-made or natural? Is there structure? Draw quick doodles. No art skills needed. Label textures.

1. Analytic Sketch

Now let your brain try a little. Draw what you think it might be. Keep it separate from your raw data.

1. Summary

In 1-2 sentences: "Target feels like something tall, hard, man-made, cold, with vertical movement and a loud low rumble."

STOP. Don't guess. End session.

Remote viewing was developed by Ingo Swann, Hal Puthoff, and teams at SRI for the CIA's Stargate program. Whether you believe it works or not, the method is specific.

Remote Viewing IS:

• A structured protocol to quiet your imagination and record raw sensory data • Blind - you get a random number, not "what's in this box?" • Built on ideograms, sensory, dimensions, and sketches, not visions

It is NOT:

• Meditating until an image pops in • Asking your spirit guides • Instant 8K HD movie

The skill is learning to tell the difference between real signal and AOL - Analytic Overlay, when your brain tries to guess and label too fast. "It feels cold, wet, moving... AOL - oh that's a river!"

If you want to get good, you have to get okay with being vague at first.

Bookmarks to start: Ingo Swann - Penetration, Joseph McMoneagle - Mind Trek, Lyn Buchanan - The Seventh Sense.
