The Power of Place – John Kruth (Parapsychology Australia Online November 2022)

The Power of Place: The Creation of Sacred Spaces - John G. Kruth (Executive Director, Rhine Research Center, USA)

You walk into a room, and you immediately feel peaceful and calm. A new city seems like home even though you’ve never visited before. The building on the corner draws your attention, and you have a strong need to go inside.

Everyone has felt the power of place and recognized the unusual connection they feel to a location. Some of these locations hold this same attraction for many people, which can cause them to become sacred spaces. Does psi have a role in creating a sacred space? How have experimental projects in PK and Healing contributed to our knowledge of spaces that hold energies.

John G. Kruth will explore the nature of some spaces at the Rhine Research Center that have become sacred, and he'll look at projects that reveal how location and place might be developed or hold information that will influence future psi activity at that site. The integration of scientific studies and insights based on research findings help to shed light on the nature of psi experiences and whether a space might hold an energy or spirit that can be felt and possibly used by people who visit that space.
