Sheldrake has proposed an experiment to test whether phantom limb fields can be detected by Reiki healers or practitioners of subtle energy medicine: amputees push their phantom arms through one of six randomly selected panels in a barrier, and healers blind to the setup attempt to identify which panel has the phantom arm, with results so far significantly above chance.

Remote viewing experiments produce statistically significant results when targets are chosen ahead of time via true random number generators, with participants drawing images that match targets selected after their drawings, suggesting non-local perception or retrocausality.

The Stargate program (U.S. military remote viewing program) produced valid evidence for non-local perception, and knowledge of this evidence exists among some contemporary researchers but remains suppressed or unacknowledged due to institutional and reputational constraints.

A specific out-of-body experience during nocturnal paralysis where Langan floated from his body into his kitchen and saw a clock showed exactly one minute later than the time shown in the original experience, providing evidence that the experience was not merely a dream or hallucination.

Chris Langan has had numerous paranormal experiences throughout his life including psychokinesis, telepathy, precognition, out-of-body experiences, and nocturnal paralysis, which motivated him to develop the CTMU to provide a theoretical framework accommodating these phenomena.
