The Man Who Was Not There
I like to read science fiction books and see, if what they do in the books, is actually possible using psychic techniques. So there I was reading “All Tomorrow’s Parties” by William Gibson and he mentioned something that posed an interesting psychic puzzle for me.
It all started with cardboard… a cardboard box in a Japanese subway station. Laney, the victim of an illegal drug given to him in the orphanage, the drug 5-SB. What this drug did was to seemingly give the psychic ability to find patterns out of massive pieces of information. And… Laney had found a node in that data. A node that was going to change EVERYTHING.
Laney says,
“People are coming together at this node.”
“And someone else. Leaves a sort of negative trace; you have to infer everything from the way he’s not there…”
This is the sentence that activated my psychic curiosity. The question was, “Can a psychic feel something that is missing in a whole group of people, simply by the fact that it isn’t there?” I shifted back through my psychic knowledge and could only pull up one technique that perhaps could be adapted.
My instructor at the psychic institute had on occasions sent all the students outside to do psychic techniques, while she remained inside the house with the door shut and no windows to watch us through. And yet she knew what we were doing. “How did she do that,” we all wondered. She couldn’t watch us, we were not even in sight.
Later I learned this was a very easy thing to do. It is possible to be aware of, “feel”, a whole group and when the energy of that group changes it is easily noticed no matter how far the group and the observer are separated.
My question with Laney and his “man that wasn’t there” was simple. Would someone also be able to “feel” the absence of a person simply by the fact that he was supposed to be there. How could anyone design an experiment like that… Oh, and I almost forgot to mention… that someone who is missing from the group is somewhere in THE FUTURE. Not even happening at the present time.
“The future?”
Makes the problem a little harder to solve doesn’t it? But still… Hmmmm!! Maybe. Yep, I think it is possible.
Can anyone out there help me out and suggest an experiment to test the concept of psychically finding “a man who is not there” somewhere in the future?
What psychic techniques would you use?¼/p>
