Displacement in Associate Remote Viewing (ARV), Psychic Readings and Life by Debra Lynne Katz.

Every time a new strategy is attempted to stop displacement, a new wall is erected or perhaps an old one patched up, and yet still, the force of the water seems too strong. So in recent discussion, and in regards to Lyn Buchannan’s (www.crvier.com) brilliant analogy where he suggests the subconscious is more interested in getting
