The file landed on my desk at 3:47 AM. No return address. No postmark. Just a plain manila envelope with my name typed in a font that hasn’t been standard since the Cold War.

The first time you slip out of your body, it feels like liberation. The silver cord stretches, the world dissolves into a wash of muted colors, and you float above your sleeping form with a giddy sense of omnipotence. You are a ghost, a god, a witness to the infinite. But the Tibetan lamas of

The human mind, in its ordinary waking state, operates within a narrow bandwidth of sensory input—processing the immediate present through sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell. Yet, for decades, a shadowy corner of government research has posited a radical proposition: that consciousness is not confined to the skull, and that trained individuals can perceive remote
