Using Remote Viewing he discovered Cleopatra’s Palace, Marc Antony’s Timonium, ruins of the Lighthouse of Pharos, and sunken ships along the California coast, and in the Bahamas. He is the author of more than 130 technical reports and papers. He has written The Secret Vaults of Time, The Alexandria Project, Mind Rover, Opening to the Infinite, and The 8 Laws of Change.

Here he claims that social change that is produced through non-violent means is more enduring and profound than change that is wrought through violence. He describes details of the process by which Mahatma Gandhi and his followers gained independence in India after centuries of British rule. He notes that Gandhi was inspired by the essay on Civil Disobedience by Henry David Thoreau; and that both Gandhi and Thoreau influenced Martin Luther King and the American civil rights movement.
