Interview with Sergeant First Class Lyn Buchanan, a retired U.S. Army remote viewer from the Stargate Project. The discussion explores Buchanan's life, from childhood psychic experiences to military psychic operations, remote viewing techniques, encounters with UFOs and extraterrestrials, out-of-body experiences, and philosophical insights on consciousness and human potential.
Buchanan draws from his book The Seventh Sense and emphasizes practical applications of psi abilities while maintaining a grounded, evidence-based perspective. Key themes include the reality of psychic phenomena, government secrecy, ET interactions, and the untapped power of the human mind.
The host introduces Buchanan as a member of the elite Stargate fraternity at Fort Meade, noting his remote viewings of UFO bases, encounters with Men in Black (MIB), and even piloting a UFO. He recommends Buchanan's book The Seventh Sense as an entertaining read on these topics. The host promotes YouTube memberships and Patreon for exclusive content, including a recent interview with Paul Smith, another Stargate veteran. Buchanan is praised for influencing figures like Adam Curry in psi explorations. Buchanan humbly responds that he prefers training others to fame, having "done his stuff."
Buchanan shares his origin story, beginning at age 12 with psychokinetic (PK) events, similar to poltergeist activity in "poltergeist children"—objects falling or moving during emotional upset. Common but often suppressed, his mother encouraged it, leading him to document and refine the ability like a database. He became proficient but hid it after a traumatic incident: showing off to a girl led her Pentecostal preacher father and deacons to assault him in an exorcism attempt, screaming for "Satan to come out." This scared him into concealment, though events still occur during anger (he avoids anger by laughing things off). The ability persists sporadically.
In Augsburg, Germany, as a programmer, Buchanan won a contract to link intelligence computers across 12 NATO militaries. A rival sabotaged his demo, triggering rage and a PK shutdown of the station (estimated $50 million damage). General Albert Stubblebine, seeking psychic events, confronted him: "Did you kill my computers with your mind?"
Buchanan's admission elicited excitement, leading to recruitment for a mental warfare unit (disrupting enemy tech, e.g., redirecting missiles). Congress rejected it due to MKUltra parallels, so Buchanan was reassigned to Fort Meade's RV unit. "Read on" to classified docs revealed its psychic nature (10-year prison threat for leaks). Skeptical at first, he observed successes and requested training. The host probes Stubblebine's esoteric interest, possibly from prior Scientology; early RV figures (Puthoff, Targ, Price, Swann) had Scientology links but exited, perhaps via clout. Pat Price's mysterious death is speculated (CIA, Russians, or Scientologists?).
4. Remote Viewing Training and Protocols (15:00–30:00)
Training under Swann was inconsistent due to his evolving methods; Buchanan synthesized versions and gained deeper insights from informal talks with Swann, focusing on understanding over rote. Protocols (Controlled Remote Viewing, CRV):
• Ideograms (Stage 1): Subconscious communicates via body (wavy for water, angular for man-made); repetitive drills bore the conscious mind, letting subconscious take over.
• Descriptions (Stage 2): Sensory details, no nouns (e.g., "salty, cold, wet" for ocean) to avoid analytic overlay.
• Advanced Stages (3–7): Sketching, 3D modeling, full descriptions (e.g., Kremlin docs, floor plans).
Beacon exercises built confidence (e.g., describing lost teammates' confusion). Feedback training: Phase out in-session cues; view target, not future feedback (countering theories like Eric Wargo's precognitive loops). Examples: Summer lake despite winter photo; past empty field vs. present building. Agencies sometimes lied or denied feedback, so training emphasized independence.
5. Consciousness, Subconscious, and Out-of-Body Experiences (30:00–43:00)
Buchanan eschews theories ("I don't know how it works"), prioritizing results (e.g., finding missing people). Subconscious accesses "universal information"; he prefers "subconsciousnesses" for its active micro-personalities, critiquing Jung/Freud's "unconscious." The "limen" is the awareness threshold (e.g., subliminals like Pepsi in Top Gun). RV bridges subconscious (symbols) and conscious (nouns) via no-noun rule.
At Monroe Institute (pre-Fort Meade), Buchanan's OBE: A "glowing hand" scratched his itching nose while physical hand remained still; he experimented but couldn't repeat after reintegrating. The host shares a terrifying OBE "peel-out" during Gateway retreat, affirming reality ("white crow" proves exceptions). Such experiences "wake" potential, challenging Buchanan's Baptist upbringing.
6. Specialized Skills and Operations (43:00–50:00)
As database manager, Buchanan excelled at mental access: Personality profiles (surface) and plans/intentions (deep). Accuracy surged; tasks used random coordinates for blind viewing (e.g., thoughts/plans).
7. UFO Bases, Moon Structures, and ET Encounters (50:00–1:34:00)
Tasked on four ET bases: Mount Zeal (Australia), Hayes (Alaska), Inyangani (Zimbabwe), Pyrenees (skipped). Descriptions: Tunnels, anti-gravity, human workers (slaves?), diverse ETs (grays, tall whites, insectoids, reptilians). No hostility; sites for observation/mining. Feedback: UFOs near Pine Gap.
Moon: Domed craters with plastic bubbles, buildings, duct-tape patches (radiation-proof, 16 psi air) for tunneling—human/ET construction in progress.
El Paso encounter: Two men (Anunnaki slave descendants) inquired about DNA "other wedge" studies (via Linda Moulton Howe). Escaped centuries of ET slavery, genetically altered, seeking peaceful integration—fearing exposure.
Speculation: ETs vary (advanced humans? Consciousness-based? Breakaway civilizations?); Buchanan leans toward ancient human-ET hybrids.
8. Spiritual Dimensions and Afterlife (1:34:00–1:40:00)
As a Methodist minister, Buchanan reconciles psi with faith: Unused gifts sin (hiding light). RV afterlife: Heaven, hell, cessation, reincarnation. Cross-cultural (e.g., early Christianity, Plato). Monroe past-life exercises. Reject exclusivity—all paths possible.
9. Post-Stargate Speculation and Psychic Warfare (1:40:00–1:50:00)
Doubts disbandment (rebranded 7 times); possibly sacrificial for deeper programs. Strict rules: No U.S. citizen viewing, no active PK (though hinted elsewhere). Soviet "remote hypnosis" assassinations possible (easy, frightening). Psychic warfare likely ongoing covertly. Private contractors evade FOIA (e.g., ET/Mars projects).
Jake Barber's psionic UFO summoning noted (Buchanan unfamiliar). Hangar visit: Recognized UFO panel from abduction amid crash debris—midair collisions with UFOs.
10. Personal Abduction and MIB Interrogation (1:50:00–2:12:00)
Pre-military, as minister: Paralyzed by backyard landing; abducted to craft with frozen passengers. Lucid, piloted briefly (hand-indentation panel with indicators). Landed at site; grays discussed (forgotten info); screams from pavilion. Declined pilot job without family; mind-wiped.
Recall after 25 years; verified via unit RV. DIA MIB interrogation focused on panel—revealed government had craft but couldn't operate. Hypnotherapy confirmed details (in Jim Marrs' Alien Agenda).
11. Conclusion and Legacy (2:12:00–End)
Buchanan amazed by mind's potential (RV "kindergarten" after 40 years; miracles like finding missing). Inherent ability; resistance from fear/religion. ET classification (from classified papers): Four psychic tiers (friendly/enemy, more/equal/less psi)—superiors: Friends nurture for cosmic power; enemies seek extinction (our range advantage).
Message: Use gifts; prepare for space threats. Host thanks Buchanan for advancing psi legacy.
