"I think of myself as an intergalactic sociologist," said Wednesday night's guest Dr. Simeon Hein (mountbaldy.com(1)), the Director of the Institute for Resonance. Hein is an expert in both crop circles and remote viewing. Calling crop circles a kind of "natural magic," he believes a group of 30-40 circle makers are mostly behind the phenomenon. But rather than being hoaxers, he posits that they could be communicating with an alien intelligence and are using the intricate designs as a kind of interdimensional language.

Hein himself may have had some ET contact, curiously coming through a set of email messages. The email said information would be revealed to him in a dream state, and indeed Hein had such an experience, viewing a set of hieroglyphic-like symbols that were empowered with a strange energy.

"The key to doing remote viewing well is to describe something without naming or defining it," Hein said. Noting a target's look, texture and sound is important. For this reason Hein prefers to call the practice "resonant sensing," because it references more than just visual input.
