ABSTRACT

Based to testing principles determined by the
institute, we established testing methods for the
ability to see objects through a wall, seeing objects
underneath dirt in a flowerpot to simulate seeing
underground, and a method of testing mental telepathy
abilities. The results of this study were decisive.
The paranormal abilities of the subjects to see objects
through a wall, inside flowerpots and to perform mental
telepathy actually existed.

KEY WORDS: Extrasensory perception (ESP), Seeing objects through
a wall, paranormal vision, target object, and mental telepathy.

FORWARD:

Parapsychological phenomena which can not yet be explained
through known science primarily include Extrasensory Perception
(ESP) and Psychokinesis (PK). ESP refers to persons with
paranormal abilities being able to obtain knowledge of objects,
events or other people's thoughts without the use of ordinary
sensory organs or any ordinary sensory channel!!], an example of
‘this is Clairvoyance. This includes paranormal vision and
paranormal remote vision of remote objects or events. It includes
Precognition, which is knowledge of future events and telepathy
which is the direct transmission and communications of thoughts.

Up to the present, there are a number of different views in
the debate over whether extrasensory perception actually
exists!42-3-41, Those who say it does exist believe it we must see
the phenomenon actually exists, but there is not as yet a
satisfactory scientific explanation for it. Those who say it does
not exist believe that the phenbomenon is strictly imaginary, and
that the necessary foundation for parapsychology to exist as a
special science is not there.

Since March of 1979 when the "Sichuan Daily" reported the
phenomenon of “reading characters with the ears" of Tang Yu, the
research into ESP in China can generally be divided into

experimental research into paranormal character recognition!>!,
paranormal vision!®] and mental telepathy!’!. At the same time,
there have been some useful explorations into the physical
characteristics of the phenomena of ESPI8-9,10,11],

As a new field of scientific research, ESP research is
currently still primarily operating at the research stage of
accumulating facts. However, sometimes testing methods are not
strict enough and some reports which have not been verified by
stringent repeat testing, and at times there is some fakery, and
also there are many factors which influence the results of this
testing. Under these conditions, it is understandable why people
harbor some suspicion about the reality of paranormal abilities.
The constructive opinions and criticism they offer concerning the
question of existence should be welcomed. We believe that one of
the primary reason for the different opinions concerning the
phenomenon of paranormal abilities is that there are debates and
differences over the research methods themselves.

Therefore, when verifying the reality of ESP, the first thing
should be to establish a set of strict ESP testing methods. This
is the primary precondition for answering the question of whether
or not it objectively exists.

The objective of this study is to study and draw up testing
methods appropriate for certain ESP abilities to lay a foundation
in methodology for its basic and applied research. At the same
time it presents a founded answer to whether certain ESP abilities
actual exists.

METHODS AND RESULTS

We conducted 1,567 individual-occasion formal tests of 21
persons who claimed to have certain types of ESP (including 4 males
and 17 females, ages were between 10 and 40, and levels of
education between elementary school and college). As a control
group we used 14 persons (all female, ages between 19 and 43, and
educational levels from junior middle school and college) upon
which we conducted 1,198 individual-occasion control tests (see
Table One).

When establishing testing methods for ESP abilities, we
decided on the following principles:

1. Random and precise selection of target objects and timely
and accurate recording of the ESP results to avoid any lack of

certainty about the description of the target object.

2. Pay attention to the double blind of the preparing of the
samples and repeatability of the test results.

3. Establish a principle of combining control groups and
blank experiments.

4. Conduct the experiments when the ESP subjects feel their
abilities are in an optimum state.

Based on the above principles, the methods. and results of the
experiments on ESP abilities are described separately below.

I. EXPERIMENTS ON SEEING AN OBJECT THROUGH A WALL

1. The Methods Used in the Experiments on Seeing an Object
Through a Wall.

The subjects and the target objects were separated with a
solid brick wall (see Illustration One).

1. Target Object. 2. Blank. 3. Partitioning wall. 4. Subject.

In order to ensure the objects are clearly identified, we used
an equilateral triangle 18 centimeters on a side, a square, half a
circle with a radius of 18 centimeters and a full circle. The ESP
subjects felt that red target objects were easier to sense, so in
the experiments it was decided to use red wooden target objects.

In the experiments, these four target objects and a blank
experiment where was no object occurred at random. The random
sequence was provided by a computer.

Here, we would like to briefly describe the specific
conditions at the location of the experiments.

On one occasion, the experiment was conducted in two adjoining
rooms separated by a brick wall at the Anshan Hotel in Anshan (see
Illustration Two). It takes effort for a person with ESP to see
through a wall when the person is in a fairly dark room, so the
window in one of the rooms was covered with a carpet, and during
the experiment, the ESP subjects sat in this (B) room attempting to
see the objects displayed by the person running the experiment (a)
in room (A). The person running the experiment (b) sat in room (B)
inside the door, and after the ESP subject had (seen) and recorded
the target object, he gave the person running the experiment (a)
the signal to change the target object.

During the progress of the experiment, the doors and windows

or leave either of the rooms. Because of the limited conditions at
the time, the other ESP subject who had not yet heen tested also
sat in room (A).

The subjects were Zhao Ying and Zhao Li.

Two years later, we repeated the seeing through the wall
experiment with Zhao Ying. The type of target objects and method
of display were the same as in the first experiment.

The testing location was room 821 in the Scientific Research
Building of the Institute of Aerospace Medicine Engineering (see
Illustration Three). The ESP subject Zhao YIng sat in a soundproof
room and attempted to see target objects displayed on the other
side of the wall by experimenter (a). Experimenter c sat outside
the door to the soundproof room, and when the ESP subject had
finished attempting to visualize the target object and had noted it
down, he would inform experimenter b of this who would then rap on
the door to notify experimenter c who would then rap on the door of
the main room to inform experimenter A that he could change target
objects.

2. Results of Seeing Through a Wall Experiments.

We see from the results in Table Two that rate of correct
responses by the ESP subjects ranged from 15.0 to 79.4 percent.
The accuracy rate of the vast majority of ESP subjects was very
near the individual natural probabilities. The accuracy rates in
seeing target objects through a wall for subjects Zhao Ying, Zhao
Li and Wang Haiyen were 79.4, 51.0 and 41.7 percent respectively.
The accuracy rates for the controls were below or near the
individual natural probabilities.

With accuracy rate - mean natural probability + standard
deviation, ESP subject only tested one group of objects, so this
subject was not included in the statistics.

The results of the seeing target objects through a wall
experiment, indicate a marked or extremely obvious difference
between their scores and that of the control group, indicating they
possess, to a certain degree, the ability to see through walls.

It is worth pointing out that when repeat seeing through the
wall experiments were conducted, ESP subject Zhao Ying had an
accuracy rate of 82.5 percent, greatly exceeding the 20 percent
natural probability, and compared to the controls, this is of
obvious statistical significance.

In the morning of 23 July, 1990, Zhao Ying completed 60 target
objects in seeing through the wall experiments with an accuracy
rate of 100 percent (see Illustration Four). These results must
have been real penetrating vision, because such a degree of
accuracy could not have been achieved from purely guessing.

1. Methods Used in Experiment on Seeing Objects Inside a
Flower Pot.

To make things easier, we chose to use seeing objects in a
flowerpot filled with dry dirt as experimental conditions
simulating seeing objects underground. We selected ten flowerpots
about the same shape, size and color (see Illustration Five). We
filled the pots with dry dirt. In order to eliminate signs
remaining after turning up the dirt to bury the objects and thus
influencing the results of the experiment, we also covered each

flower pot with a piece of paper.

The object was a piece of steel plate or aluminum plate 20
times as large as the five cent piece the ESP subjects believed
they could discern in a flowerpot. It was buried in one of the ten
pots according to a random sequence provided by a computer. The
dirt in which it was buried was 10 centimeters deep. Thus, the
natural probability for this experiment was ten percent.

results (see Table Five) indicate that the ESP subject Wang
Tingting had results which were clearly more statistically
significant that those of the control group. This indicates that
she possesses to a certain degree the ability to see into the
flowerpots.

III. EXPERIMENTS ON MENTAL TELEPATHY

Mental telepathy is the transfer of information between the
sender and the receiver.

1. Methods Used in Mental Telepathy Experiments.

In these experiments, it is necessary to first of all remove
any possibility of using a telephone, walkie talkie or modern radio
communications equipment to transmit information.

In order to ensure the mental telepathy experiments proceeded
smoothly, six ESP subjects were paired off in a fixed manner (see
Table Six).

Prior to each experiment, the ESP subjects and _ the
experimenters would gather in room 313 and decide on the time when
the formal experiment would began. Then the receivers and their
experimenter would leave room 313, the door would be locked, and
until the experiment had been concluded no one was allowed in or
out of the room.

LN134-93

The receiving location was a location somewhere on Fudan
University chosen at random by the on site experimenter or at some
fixed location.

The distances between the senders and the receivers were from
100 to 300 yards.

The time when the formal experiments began was usually 15
minutes after the receivers had left room 313. Two to three
minutes before the experiment began, the experiment sample for each
sender was determined by random drawing of lots. The senders were
only allowed to look at the test samples, and were not allowed to
recite it silently or read it aloud in order to prevent possible
transmission of the information by sound.

During the experiment, when the senders believed that they had
finished sending the contents of the test sample, they would
immediately write down the contents of the sample they had sent,
write down the time, sign their names, and hand it over to the
experimenter for safekeeping. Similarly, when the receivers
helieved they had received the contents sent, they were to
immediately write it down, writing down clearly what they had
received, the time and sign the paper and hand it over to the on-
site experimenter for safekeeping.

The experimenters at the two different locations would compare
the contents of the two. Some of the test results were checked
with the persons who prepared the original test samples before
determining whether the results were accurate.

The contents of the test samples included characters, numbers
and shapes. Considering the present ability level of the subjects
and their educational level, when the character test samples were
prepared, characters with fewer strokes and which are easily
recognized were chosen in order to avoid the possibility of
logically figuring out gaps in the sentences, and making it
difficult to grade the results, we normally selected two phrases
with no relationship to each other (see Illustration Seven). The
number test samples were four to six digit numbers or numbers with
a comma (see Illustration Eight). The test samples using shapes
were simple structures which were difficult to put a name to (see
Illustration Nine in Insert Two).

The vast majority of the samples were prepared beforehand at
the Institute of Aerospace Medicine Engineering (in Beijing). Then
they were randomly placed into brown paper envelopes and given
numbers for random drawing for the experiments. Only a small
number of the samples were prepared at Fudan University prior to
the experiment and sealed in envelopes.

Under the exact same conditions using the same batch of
samples, we selected four controls who approximated the ESP

experiments in mental telepathy.

We conducted two separate mental telepathy experiments
(totalling 63 tests) using Ji Meiyun and five other ESP subjects
six months apart.The results of these experiments were:

CORRECT: Results received were exactly the same as the
contents sent.

PARTIALLY CORRECT: Results received not exactly the same as
what sent, but some or most were the same.

INCORRECT: Wrong or not received.
Looking at these results (see Table Seven), the percentage
correct in these two experiments were 26.1 and 15.0 respectively,

DISCUSSION:

To date, the focus of debates in the research concerning ESP
phenomena has been over whether or not to accept it as real. This
is a theoretical question, but is also a practical question.

Science is something that should be able to be tested. We
feel that ESP must not lack either reality or repeatability. If
the experimental conditions are basically the same, certain fairly
stable cause and effect relationships should not be related to
subjective hopes, and the results of the experiments would be
repeatable. We believe that the unique quality of ESP, ignoring or
lacking repeatable experimental results, is not scientific.
Therefore we stress repeatability, requiring that tested results of

Approved For Release 2000/08/10 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000300070001-7

LN134-93

ESP be repeatable just as those in physics and chemistry
experiments. It is also not acceptable to adopt a negative
attitude because of the low repeatability without considering the
human factors and the present lack of stability of ESP.

The results of our seeing objects through a wall and the
results of out mental telepathy experiments, we feel, that while
acknowledging the existence of its reality, wee should also look at
their instability. The manifestation of the ESP subjects'
abilities are affected by the body itself and environmental
factors. When the ESP subject is happy, full of energy, and the
surroundings are quiet, and he has become accustomed to a certain
testing environment, this can cause the abilities to be fairly well
manifested. Otherwise, the success rate of the tests was low.

In the morning of 23 July, 1990, Zhao Ying completed 60 tests
in an experiment of seeing objects through a wall. Her success
rate was 100 percent (see illustration four). At that time, the
ESP subject stated that she had pain around her eyes and asked to
rest. After resting at noon, the ESP subject still felt
uncomfortable around the eyes, and when she did one more test group
(20 objects) she was only right on six of them, for a success rate
of 30 percent. This illustrates that people who really have ESP
use up energy when they sense objects, and we may say that there
are conditions on whether or not a test is successful.

For example, as stated in the experimental methods
(Illustration Two), when conducting the seeing objects through a
wall, the other ESP subject who was not yet engaged in the
experiment because of the limitations of conditions was seated in
the room where the objects were displayed and could directly view
the objects. Thus, in the results of the experiment on seeing
objects through a wall the possibility cannot be eliminated that
mental telepathy between the two ESP subjects played a role.
Furthermore, they were sisters. However, only Zhao Ying took part
in the seeing objects through a wall experiment conducted on 23
July, 1990, and her accuracy rate was 82.5 percent (see Table
Four). This eliminated the possibility of any effect of mental
telepathy as in the first experiment in January 1988.

It is worth pointing out that Illustration Seventeen shows
mental telepathy test samples which are combinations of
illustrations and characters. The face with three hairs is not
complete, only having a frowning mouth and three hairs. What is
interesting is that when the receiver, Pang Fei, handed in what she
had written down, she said that what she seen was a head with three
hairs. The face was not clear, but she had filled in eyes and a
nose anyway. May we believe that the receiver felt that since the
face was not clear because ordinarily a face should have eyes and
a nose, and there were none on the test sample, so the receiver

filled them because it made sense. Could the frowning mouth be due
to the fact that the person sending the information and the person
receiving the information did not pay attention to detailed areas?

What was sent and what was received in the mental telepathy
test shown in Illustration Eighteen do not seem to match up at all.
However the receiver, Xiao Xue, said that she was not able to
receive anything from Ji Meiyun, so she thought she would try to
receive what Wu Shaohong was sending. She also noted on her card
that she received what Wu Shaochong was sending. What she received
and what was sent is shown in Illustration Fourteen. The only
difference is that the receiver missed a single stroke in the first
character. It seems that in the receiving process, the receiver
need only change her mind, just like changing frequencies on a
radio, and she can receiver the information sent by a different
sender. This is a very interesting fact.

From an analysis of the results we can see that in the mental
telepathy experiments within a range of 100 to 300 meters it took
from six to 22 minutes from the time the information is first sent
until it is first received. This indicates that there is a "time
differential” delay in the information transmission process between
the sender and the receiver. This "time delay" in mental telepathy
will not fit into radio theory. This is something worth looking
into.

In the studies to verify ESP abilities, we felt that the
establishment of the blank where no object was displayed could
serve to further evaluate the truth about such abilities.

In the seeing objects through a wall experiment with Zhao Li
using one group of 20 objects where she answered correctly to the
first 17 objects (see Illustration Nineteen), objects five through
twelve were eight blanks in a row where no object was displayed.
The ESP subject also correctly described eight blanks in a row.
Furthermore, here answers prior to and following the blanks were
also correct. We believe that this cannot be ascribed purely to
chance guessing. This demonstrates the existence of these
abilities from another aspect.

The mechanism of ESP is not yet clear. However, in _mental
telepathy experiments between a submarine and the shorel1!2], and
mental telepathy experiments with both sender and receiver inside
a metal screened room °r a steel reinforced concrete underground
structurel!!], in neither case was there any clear sign of
insulation. This makes it impossible to explain that in mental
telepathy the information is carried over radio waves.

In the training process to induce mental teleplathy, the
person being trained says that the object flashes in front of the
forehead. Some reports 11] are of the opinion that in the process
of mental telepathy, sending and receiving of information can only
be accomplished when the "screen phenomenon" occurs at the forehead

of the sender and the receiver. Furthermore, they believe that
success in mental telepathy experiments is related to the degree of
clarity of the "screen" when both sides have entered a state of
quiet. When the ESP subject states that the "screen" is weak and
fuzzy or has not appeared, the success rate of mental telepathy
experiments are low. However, when both sender and receiver are
full of energy, happy, and the surroundings are quiet, when the
“screen" appears clearly, the success rate is high. However, there
has been no scientific basis demonstrated for the "screen" which
ESP subjects talk about. This will have to be further explored in
the future.

Finally we should point out that in order to eliminate the
possibility of successful results being caused by any sort of
fakery in seeing through the wall experiments and mental telepathy
experiments, we visited Comrade Nan Zongpei of the China Acrobatic
and Magic Show and had talks with famous magician Comrade Tai
Mingxiao of that show. We described to them the methods, control
over conditions and test results of our experiments and asked them
if there were any possibility of trickery. They replied that there
were three necessary conditions for magic tricks. These are that
the tools of the trade be designed or manufactured by the magician
himself; that the hand must be in direct contact with the tools of
the trade; and that there must be some smoke screen type actions
to divert the attention of the audience or help from an assistant.
Finally, Comrade Tai Mingxiao said that from the experimental
conditions you have described, from the test samples I have seen
and from the results obtained, it would be impossible for a
Magician to perform the see through the wall experiment and the
mental telepathy experiment with success.

CONCLUSIONS

1. In our testing of 21 people who claimed to have certain
forms of ESP, we performed 1,567 individual tests of different
types of ESP. On the control group we performed 1,198 separate
tests.

2. Based on the principles of the experiments and the results
of our study, we established experimental methods for a seeing
objects through a wall, for mental telepathy and for seeing objects
inside a flower pot.

3. Evidence from the results of this study determines that
Zhao Ying, Zhao Li and Wang Haiyan possess the ability to see
objects through walls. Their accuracy rates were 79.90, 51.0 and
41.7 percent respectively. Ji Meiyun, Pang Fei, Wu Xiaohong, Yin
Xuefang, Zhang Qin and Xiao Xuelan possess mental telepathy
abilities. Wang Tingting possess the ability to see objects inside

AN EXPLORATION INTO THE USE OF ESP TO SEARCH FOR MINERALS
TEYI GONGNENG ZHAOKUANG CHUTAN

BY: Pan Shizhong (China Academy of Geology, Institute of Geology)

From early 1987 to the end of 1989, for three years I worked
with 19 people with ESP abilities conducting 17 experiments of
strict design. We also conducted a great deal of ad hoc
experiments. The results of the experiments indicate that it is
feasible to use ESP in geological prospecting. In the process of
the experiments we surveyed 36 ESP prospecting personnel. With the
exceptionof five who were not interested or whose methods did not
work well with us and showed no results, about 82.6 percnet of the
people showed results. Of these, five people were sent to the
Academy of Geology to study. The specific forms of the experiments
and the resutls are provided below.

I. INSIDE REMOTE SENSING EXPERIMENT

Inside remote sensing is prospecting inside on a map. The
principle is to make full use of the romote sensing and remote
vision of people with ESP. Then, just like scanning, capture
information of different ratios of certain ores and reflect that
information on diffrent types of maps.

This group of experiments used 19 people who emote sensed nine
nine mines on different types of maps of different scales. ?These
included four coal mines, two lead and zink mines, one diamond
mine, three geothermal locations and two oil fields. Except for
one geothermal locations and one oil field which have not yet been
verified, all the othr have been verified, with an accuracy rate of
around 75 percent.

II. ON-SITE LIVE SENSING EXPERIMENTS

The principle of on-site live sensing is to make full use of
the penetrating vision and sensing abilities of people with ESP to
determine the orientation oof the ore zone in mining areas, the
richness of the ore, and the grade of ore. Secondarily, it is to
allow them to "assay" ore samples collected from the mining area
for information on its richnes and grade.

Fifteen people took part in this group of experiments, going to one
led and zink mine, five gold mines, one oil field, two coal mines,
one diamond mine and one geothermal location. 1, They were fairly
accurate in differentiating the richness of the ore samples. 2,
When inspecting the mine sites, they could point out the direction
of ore reserves. 3, By seeing into the ground, they coulid inspect

tunnels and describe conditions in the mine. The resutls of the
above experiments all conformed actual conditions in the mining
areas.

Through the preliminary experiments above we have demonstrated
that ESP geological prospecting is feasible. At the same time,
they can also be widely used in other geological operatoins such as
geological structures, engineering geology, karst geology,
hydrological geology and prediction and woarning of geological
disasters. Experimental research must be developed into many
areas.

QI AND ITS INTERACTION WITH MATERIAL SYSTEMS

BY: Miao Tiajun, Quan Wenfu and Xuan Mingkui
(Jilin University Physics Department, Institute of Applied
Research)

ABSTRACT

Based on the quantum theory of David Bohm, this article
proposes a model for Qi-Matter interaction. Herein, Qi state is
described as a wave function. The Qi influence on mater is exerted
through a quantum potential. From the model we directly obtained
two important characteristics of Qi, holography and wholeness.
This article studies the effects of Qi on microscopic and
Macroscopic systems, deriving quantum potential as the dynamics
formula of the outside force, theoretically providing an estimation
of the relaxation time, changes in the rate of chemical reactions,
changes in microscopic structures and the results of the
oscillation effect. It uses this to explain a number of Qigong and
Pi experiments. As evidence, this article describes the results of
experiments we conducted recently.

KEYWORDS : Qi and its interactions, quantum potential,
psychokinesis.

As research into somatic sciences probes deeper, people have
accumulated large amounts of experimental results. Qigong and ESP
phenomena have been widely explored. These phenomena are called
consciousness related PK questions and ESP questions in the Westl1l,
In China they are believed to be questions related to Qi. In
ancient books it is possible to find important knowledge of the
ancients on Qi and its interaction.!?).

This article attempts to begin with the concept of Qi to
construct a theoretical model to explain the changes to matter
caused by the effects of Qi and ESP. It uses modern science to
disclose the basic nature of Qi. This article is divided into five
sections. The first section is model hypothesis, believing that Qi
can described as a material wave field. Through quantum potential
it has an informational role on matter. The second section
provides two deductions concerning the nature of Qi and explains
some phenomena. The third section is on specific research on the
effects on the Hamilton structure and equilibrium systems. The
fourth section explores a type of oscillation effect. The fifth
section is the discussion.
