The Psi Connection

A few years ago the author of The Psi Connection had a disturbing experience while experimenting with self-hypnosis. He saw a vision of a past life in which it appeared he had lived as a farmer in the 1800s. He tried twice more and each time had a similar vision that seemed to be from the same time and place. Frightened by the implications, he strongly rejected the possibility that these experiences were real. As a journalist with a scientific background he could not accept the reality of this bizarre phenomenon and explained it to himself as having come from his unconscious mind, similar to dreams. But he still had doubts. Finally, when he began to talk about the subject he learned that others also had experienced visions of past lives. Launched on a voyage of discovery, he began to realize that many events in his life could not be explained by science or common sense, but only through the manifestation of paranormal powers. He continued to interview others who shared their experiences in such things as telepathy, psychokinesis, distance viewing, precognition, near death experiences and other uncanny events. He began to research the subject and learned that there is a large body of evidence to support the reality of paranormal powers. And, strikingly, he began to see other manifestations of his own mental powers. He became aware of the possibility that there are quantum connections between human minds and the universe itself. This is his story.
