Intergalactic Bathroom Enlightenment

poliphilo I'm reading Intentions: the Intergalactic Bathroom Enlightenment Guide- a sort of autobigraphy by Prudence C Calabrese. It's wacky, it's profound, it's beautifully written- and it can be downloaded for free at her website.
Calabrese, who also operates as Birdie Jakowski, is a remote viewer. Remote Viewing- if you don't already know- is a technique for gathering information about anything that existed and exists in our universe (and others) by sitting down with pencil and paper and concentrating on a set of random coordinates that someone else has selected. I don't suppose I'm explaining that very well- in fact I know I'm not- but please believe me it's not New Age nonsense because if that's all it was the USA's three letter agencies wouldn't employ its paractitioners as "psychic spies". The belief behind it is that the universe is all one thing and we as parts of the universe have connections to all the other parts and can access them if we choose. We may have walled ourselves off in one tiny little physical corner of All That Is (the better to explore it without too much distraction) but the wall is permeable- and mediums, channelers, poets, musicians, artists and dreamers pass backwards and forwards all the time- usually without knowing what they're doing. Anyone can be a remote viewer- and those who get the best results are often the most unlikely folks- suburban housewives and hard-nosed military men.
Calabrese saw a UFO as a kid and had a grey alien show up in her bathroom when she was older and download information into her brain. She trained as a remote viewer and has since developed her own system which is gentler and more feminine than the system she was taught- which was developed by and for the military. I'm not good at submitting to other people's disciplines so I won't be taking the training myself, but then, as a poet and artist, I don't believe I have to.....
