Cosmic Voyages by Dr. Courtney Brown PhD. . Without getting too deeply into the whole remote viewing conundrum, let me say that Cosmic Voyages is... very interesting, laying out in great detail the relationship between humans and aliens. The book tells of our place in history, our destiny as a space faring race and the great challenges that lie before us as we take our place in the greater civilized cosmos. Using remote viewing we now know that Martian refugees are even now living in vast caverns, waiting for the time where they will be able to join Humanity and assist us in our quest for the stars. If I chose to actually relate this book the remote viewing conundrum I would think the last two paragraphs are nothing but a bunch of balderdash. Courtney Brown’s book is like that. You either buy it or you don’t. No attempt is made to validate the underlying theory of Scientific Remote Viewing (SRV.) It’s taken for granted that the audience already knows it’s for real, already accepts that SRV is a valid technology like say, a bicycle or a computer. But, far less validation is made in the book for SRV than lets say in BIKE! Magazine for the existence of an artifact called a bicycle. At least they have photos of bikes, people riding them ect. We don’t have any such thing coming from Dr. Courtney Brown. Just a bland chapter outlining SRV, describing in very little detail how it works and a repeated statement to the effect of “this is completely scientific.” Really? The double-blind studies were done where? Which journal was it written up in? Where is all the documentation regarding the principles of SRV let alone how it's accomplished. Dr. Brown is published in two conventional journals on other subjects, why not for SRV? Because maybe (whisper this) it’s not really scientific? Other than the total lack of any real validation of SRV the book is pretty incredible. Telling the “true” accounts of Dr. Brown’s sessions as an SRV practitioner. His accounts of Mars people, the Grays and other members of the alien bestiary. The real scoop on how several Mars probes were shot down before they discovered the “secrets” of Mars. It’s all pretty heady stuff, easily verifiable. Although the great caverns holding the refugee Martians on Earth have never been discovered--even though it's on public land. One of the Mars probes was actually found, it landed and rolled down a hill, but no matter. The bottom line comes inexorably back to, do you believe in SRV or not? If not then you can happily skip this book for it will not enlighten you one bit about how this strange "science” works. If you do be live in SRV you will discover thrilling secrets of the alien agenda and finally know the truth about your place in the cosmos. But you must only believe. Is that too much to ask?
