"Based on the preceding section, we can expect several things to happen on planet Earth during this crucial, critical time, not as much in the geophysical aspect -- certainly not cataclysmic events -- but more in the psychological and socio-political and economic areas, largely motivated by astrological and astrophysical factors and influences. Now, we know that As Above, So Below: As Within, So Without, the ancient Hermetic Dictum does have its scientific basis due to heliomagnetic, helioplasmic, gravitational, el..."

" Leading Edge Research Group is once again privileged to be allowed to bring you details from a meeting conducted in September 1994 in Chicago, USA, attended by underground, unorthodox scientists and researchers in various disciplines, namely, Physics, Geophysics, Astrophysics, Biophysics, Metallurgy, Materials Science, Parapsychology, Paraphysics, Geopolitical Science and Metaphysics. To protect the identities of the scientists and researchers, only their titles, degrees and gender has been disclosed; this was a j..."

"Arthur Koestler Contrary to the impression in BBC Television's Sea of Souls the Koestler Parapsychology Unit at Edinburgh University, on which the drama series is loosely based, is staffed with serious academic parapsychologists. Irked as they are to be misrepresented as ghostbusting fruitcakes, the publicity gained for their subject may not be unwelcome. Part of the university’s psychology department, the unit is located in sparse rooms in a labyrinthine building in George Square. Caroline Watt, acting head..."

"I have read less than a handful of books that can be said to have influenced my way of thinking. Immanuel Velikovsky's Worlds in Collision has not only been one of them, in the end it totally changed my life. In this work Velikovsky proposed that, in the distant past, but still within man's memory, the planet Jupiter ejected from itself a smaller but sizeable body that careened across the solar system in the form of a giant comet. Coming into close contact with Earth, but avoiding an actual collision, this comet..."

"So you've had a close encounter with a UFO. Or a serious interest in the subject of extramundane life. Or a passion for following clues that seem to point toward the existence of a greater reality. Mention any of these things to most working scientists and be prepared for anything from patronizing skepticism to merciless ridicule. After all, science is supposed to be a purely hardnosed enterprise with little patience for "expanded" notions of reality. Right? Wrong...."

"The human body, much like a computer, contains myriad data processors. They include, but are not limited to, the chemical-electrical activity of the brain, heart, and peripheral nervous system, the signals sent from the cortex region of the brain to other parts of our body, the tiny hair cells in the inner ear that process auditory signals, and the light-sensitive retina and cornea of the eye that process visual activity.[2] We are on the threshold of an era in which these data processors of the human body may be m..."

"The crop circles mystery gets more bizarre each season. Blaming it all on hoaxsters is certainly the easiest solution. But the confessions of self-proclaimed perpetrators, ex-pat Aussies Doug and Dave doesn't exactly inspire confidence. Though their story of circle fakery was widely disseminated in the press last summer, their subsequent backpedalling was not. Having initially claimed credit for every last crop circle--even though as many as 20 per night occurred at the peak of the 500-plus 1990 season--the duo ..."
