Receiving an Image Exercise |
|
|
|
|

|
|
Get your paper and pencil ready. You and your partner should be in separate rooms, but close enough to hear a bell. Settle into comfortable positions in a quiet state. |
|

|
1. Your partner should privately pick out about five different pictures from postcards, magazines, or books. You should not look at any of them ahead of time. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Your partner should focus on one picture at a time, trying to think of nothing but that image. She should do this for about one minute, and then ring a bell. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Once you hear the bell, record your impressions of the image, whether you prefer to write or draw what you perceived. Don't be afraid to simply list or draw details, if a specific image does not come to you. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Your partner should allow you about 20 seconds to record your impressions. Or you can have your own bell to ring, to let her know when you've finished. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. Repeat this process for all five images that your partner selected. Avoid speaking to your partner during this time. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. When you've finished, look at your notes together with your partner. Let her tell you when you were on target, or not. |

Pertaining to these exercises, theories differ on whether you should stop and discuss each image just after sensing it or go through all five before stopping to compare notes. Basically, it depends on what you want to achieve. If you want to assess where you are right now without interrupting your concentration, go through all five images at once. If you want to develop your skills of telepathic discernment, stop to analyze which images transferred bestand why and how. |

If you feel that you're not as successful as you'd like, don't be too hard on yourself. Remember that you'll often feel like you're just making it up. Be as willing to be wrong as you are to be right: You'll learn from your mistakes. Another factor may be your partner. It takes two to tangoand to talk telepathically. If your partner isn't focused or is having an off day, you'll be sharing that experience too. Keep in mind that, for both of you, this is a new skill, and as with any new skill, it takes practice. |

Interestingly, scientists seem to know more about who makes a good receiver than who makes a good sender. Perhaps they tend to focus on how people receive information because that's how they have proof that psi exists. For example, a sender with |
