The use of clairvoyance was behind the discovery of the Edgar Chapel
in the Abbey of Glastonbury. As Bligh Bond recounts in his book The Gate of Remembrance,
there was no mention in any document of the exact location of this chapel, nor of its
size. Over the course of several sessions of automatic writing, Bond obtained precise
guidelines as to its location. The following year, 1908, work was begun, leading to the
excavation of the chapel- most of the "channeled" instructions were exactly
correct.
A number of archaeologists have used psychics in their digs, with considerable success.
Dr. Norman Emerson of the Univ. of Toronto, for example, reported systematically being
assisted by a businessman named George McMullen, who had a sharp talent for locating ruins
and reconstructing their associated history. Following the path laid by such "psychic
archaeologists", Stephan Schwartz, founder of the "Mobius Group", launched
the Alexandria Project.
Its objective was to locate nothing less than the ruins of the famous Library of
Alexandria, and the tomb of Alexander the Great, also presumed to be in Alexandria (which
he had himself designed and founded). In the early phases of the project, eleven mediums
in the U.S. were put to work on maps, and an analysis was made of all the places they
found. Their "map dowsing" converged upon three sites. Accompanied by two of the
psychics and a team for research and filming, Schwartz left for an onsite investigation in
Egypt. The psychics were Hella Hammid, distinguished for her remote viewing at SRI, and
George McMullen, who had earned quite a reputation working with archaeologist Emerson.
Once onsite the psychics led the search like bloodhounds, practically overwhelming the
team with all the information they were providing. |
