The Mind at Large

<p class=ql-align-justify>During 1994-95 three men disappeared while on a business trip to Kaliningrad (Koenigsberg) in Russia. After the authorities failed to locate the men their families asked a Polish psychic for help. Using a photograph of one of the men the psychic sensed that the man was dead - as were his companions - their throats had been cut and they had been decapitated. He saw three headless bodies in a forest at a specific location. A few days later Russian police revealed that the bodies had been found as the psychic had described.</p><p class=ql-align-justify><br></p><p class=ql-align-justify>Clairvoyance research has over decades produced a significant body of evidence of the mind's ability to gather information not accessible to the physical senses. In the materialist philosophical worldview mind-to-mind communication is impossible therefore these accounts don't happen because they can't happen - nevertheless they continue to occur time and time again all over the world.  </p><p class=ql-align-justify><br></p><p class=ql-align-justify>In the current creative scientific turmoil perhaps it is time to consider the possibility of a model in which clairvoyance instead of being an anomaly is a fundamental feature of the universe. Scientific theories of everything are now emerging that can accommodate anomalous phenomena such as clairvoyance. </p><p class=ql-align-justify><br></p><p class=ql-align-justify>This is the central theme of <strong><em>The Mind at Large</em></strong> which presents a unique dossier documenting one clairvoyant's contribution to detective work in Poland. Compiled over more than 20 years by the Polish clairvoyant Krzysztof Jackowski this dossier was verified by a young Polish police sergeant Krzysztof Janoszka who wrote a diploma thesis on the use of psychics in police work in order to draw attention to the phenomena demonstrated by Jackowski. Janoszka is the co-author of this book. </p><p class=ql-align-justify><br></p><p class=ql-align-justify>What makes this dossier particularly interesting is the clairvoyant's claim that it is the dead who provide him with the information about their fate. Such a claim does not sit easily within his own culture but his evidence makes an important contribution to research into mediumship and the age-old question of survival that has been researched for more than a century in the English-speaking world.</p><p class=ql-align-justify> </p><p class=ql-align-justify><br></p><p><br></p>
