The edition

The Gateway Process

In 1983 the US Army asked one of its intelligence officers whether a person could leave their body. He came back with 29 pages, a conclusion — plausible — and a twelve-step programme to do it.

The document

The Army asked. This is what came back.

In June 1983 a lieutenant colonel of Military Intelligence sat down at Fort George G. Meade and wrote to his commanding officer about how to leave your body.

The memorandum's letterhead: Department of the Army seal, US Army
Intelligence and Security Command, Fort George G. Meade, 9 June 1983

Twenty-nine pages later, at paragraph 38, he reaches his conclusion.

There is a sound, rational basis in terms of physical science parameters for considering Gateway to be plausible in terms of its essential objectives.

Then it keeps going. Into a training programme, lettered A through L, that starts with audio tapes and ends somewhere else entirely.

A The Gateway tapes, to synchronise the brain's hemispheres.
B Add REM-sleep frequencies for deep physical relaxation.
C Hypnotic suggestion, so a subject can enter a trance at will.
D Use it to accelerate through the Focus 12 exercises.
E Repeat, with the suggestion that an out-of-body movement will occur and be remembered.
F Repeat until the out-of-body state is under conscious control.
G Escape from time-space.
H Three people out of body at once, viewing one target from the present, the immediate past, and the future.
I Full self-knowledge, to sharpen out-of-body observation.
J “Be intellectually prepared to react to possible encounters with intelligent, non-corporal energy forms when time-space boundaries are exceeded.”
K Groups uniting their consciousness to build holographic patterns “to repulse possible unwanted out-of-body presences.”
L Advanced participants building the same patterns to pull colleagues through faster.

He signed it. It was addressed to a commander. It was filed.

The missing page

Released in 2003. Whole in 2021.

The CIA released this memorandum through its FOIA reading room in 2003 — as a microfilm scan, with two pages bound out of order and one missing entirely. Page 25 simply wasn't there. Not blank, not blacked out: absent, in the middle of the argument, for eighteen years.

In 2021 the Monroe Institute, which had kept an intact copy, supplied the missing page to Vice. The accepted explanation is a sheet dropped during microfilming.

This edition puts page 25 back where it belongs, marked in red because it comes from a different scan, and puts pages 17 and 18 back in the order the typist numbered them. Nothing is retouched. You get the document as it was released, and you get it whole.

The disclosure printed beneath page 25 in this edition: a red rule
and the heading This leaf is not from the authoritative source — Printed beneath page 25 in every copy

The object

Built to be kept

The kind of book that gets picked up off a table.

A casewrap hardcover at full document size — 8.5 by 11 inches, 94 pages, matte black, the collection name on a half-inch spine. The facsimile on the left of every spread, a word-for-word transcription on the right, and 85 numbered notes beneath the pages. Printed to order, one copy at a time.

Close-up of a page foot: three numbered annotations set beneath the facsimile — The numbered notes beneath every page · render from the print files

— a page missing, two out of order. This is the document whole, at the size it was typed, corrected and annotated, in a form nobody can revise after the fact. It's the copy you hand to someone who asks what the Gateway Process actually says.
