Opening Minds: A Journey of Extraordinary Encounters, Crop Circles, and Resonance
by Simeon Hein, Ph.D. (ISBN 0971586306, Mount Baldy Press, Inc., 2002)

Questions and Answers for Simeon Hein, Ph.D.

• Q: Why did you write Opening Minds?
  A: I wrote the book because I had certain experiences that defied the ideas that I had learned in school. The experiences suggested to me that people had more abilities, more capacities than science generally acknowledges. The ability for people to contact the unknown is available to everyone but we are discouraged by society from doing so.
  
  
• Q: What is Opening Minds all about?
  A: The book is an explanation of the science behind what some people think of as "paranormal phenomena." It explains the physics principles that account for people’s experiences with remote viewing, telepathy, crop circles, and extraterrestrials.
  
  
• Q: Does Opening Minds tell something new about the subject?
  A: I had a unique set of experiences after leaving graduate school that convinced me that there was more to reality than most people believe. The book documents these experiences from a personal point of view and recounts incidents and phenomena that either happened to me or people I know well. These include remote viewing sessions and phenomena associated with crop circles.
  
  
• Q: How long did it take you to write the book?
  A: It took about five years of research and two years to write.
  
  
• Q: How does your book say something new about the subjects?
  A: I found that manmade crop circles had holographic and multidimensional properties. The mysterious qualities that had been attributed to “authentic” crop circles were also evident in those constructed by people. To me that realization was really mind opening.
  
  
• Q: What are crop circles?
  A: Crop circles are conditioned spaces, shapes, that allow a person to have contact with a wider range of frequencies than we are normally accustomed to. They act as a bridge into the unknown. Information can come in and out of crop formations and seems to be carried along a “broadband” line of communication that is accessible to humans, extraterrestrials and other life forms.
  
  
• Q: What is Remote Viewing?
  A: It is the ability to perceive information from sources other than our five senses. It is an innate process that is built in everyone and can be developed with practice.
  
  
• Q: How did you get involved in RV?
  A: I read a book by a remote viewer, Courtney Brown, took his courses and eventually became a teacher of RV myself. I later trained with a retired government-trained remote viewer, and relearned the RV system from that point of view.
  
  
• Q: How does RV relate to crop circles?
  A: Both RV and crop circles rely on holographic processes and shapes to create multidimensional resonance. They are really the same thing from different points of view.
  
  
• Q: What did you learn from your study of RV and crop circles?
  A: The universe is a vast place that is filled with multitudes of physical and nonphysical life forms. Nonphysical conscious is all around us. If you pay attention to it, you'll see magic happen in your life.
