Within the BSD Journal, there are a few reports of what has\nbeen referred to as proxy dowsing. Here another person (a non-dowser) walks\nover the site to be dowsed, while not performing any dowsing action, while the actual\ndowser, stationary and at some distance removed, watches their movement. In\nthis manner, the dowser can still obtain a reaction on their dowsing device, as\nif they were walking the site in the manner of their proxy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This curious phenomenon can surprise even seasoned dowsers. In this article, written by Evelyn Penrose, (probably the most accomplished female dowser of the last century) experiences proxy dowsing for the first time. She is introduced to it by one of the great 20th<\/sup> Century dowsing pioneers, the French priest, Abbe Bouly (there were several French priests who were expert dowsers at this time). <\/p>\n\n\n\n Proxy dowsing is reminiscent of the Stanford Research\nInstitute experiments in remote viewing, in which a target person visits a\nremote site and the remote viewer attempts to describe what the target person is\nlooking at. Therefore, one might conclude that the basic mechanism is the same\nin both these applications of psi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The full article is here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
