Precognition confounds our sense and understanding of time, something we can generally take for granted. Between case histories and recent experimental work, it is clear that we must take precognition seriously. What does it tell us about the world that individuals can get glimpses of the future (and the past)?
Psi puzzles us in many ways, muddling our ordinary notions of individuality, personality, and the nature of mind in general.
In 2003, Bob started attending the Sursem or ‘Survival Seminar’ project at Essalen and became more actively involved with the leading researchers in Parapsychology. In 2021 he contributed a chapter on Precognition to Consciousness Unbound (Kelly and Marshall).
As we talk, Bob offers a number of case histories of people having precognitive dreams and of laboratory research on Psi. Is there a scientific explanation for such phenomena, I asked. Listen to his answer.
Bob believes that freedom is real, that our human choices matter, and that we have barely scratched the surface of our human potential. He is convinced that there is some kind of life after death though what form it takes he does not know.
