Many skills require specialization, long term training and extensive practice to master. The experienced psi practitioners of today are those people who have spent years developing their individual talents. With those years of experience comes the snereased confidence of how to use their talents. Like other “normal” skills, practice and training improve performance, understanding, and reliability. And those who have learned the most about psi are best suited to begin training a new vanguard to carry on and improve their skills. | But in the hostile environment of Western society, the history of psi has been one of independent research and independent findings, held closely to prevent the scorn of organized science and society. Consequently, we continue to lose the knowledge and experience of past masters, rather than building on their understanding to improve our own. The one historic thread of commonality is a belief that psi exists and can offer much more for the future of mankind.

Are we ready? Approved FU Res 3601/04762 = CIA-RDP96-00789R001001420001-3 yA
