In the opening days of 1984 twenty-four American soldiers were
summoned from a variety of military intelligence units around the world and
brought to a remote mountaintop in the Blue Ridge of Virginia.
Atop that mountain sat The
Monroe Institute (known as the Monroe Institute of Applied Sciences at the
time).
Inside the walls of the institute we would attempt to fulfill the reason for our summoning:
To participate in the United
States Army Intelligence and Security Command’s Center Lane Project.
Center Lane, an experiment in
psychic warfare, was intimately tied to the much publicized, CIA sponsored,psychic espionage unit, the Stargate Project.
Our mandate: Learn to disassociate spirit and body. We
entered altered states of consciousness, freed our minds to travel to remote
locations, alternate realities, into the future.
I was one of those soldiers
selected. This is my story of the amazing events in that time and place and their impact on my
life in the 30 years since.
