Imagine entering a
trance and being able to recall events that you had no previous knowledge of…would
that intrigue you?...perhaps frighten you?...such a thing is called retrocognition
(which is also known sometimes as postcognition)…these terms describe
"knowledge of a past event which could not have been learned or inferred
by normal means…
it happens when one can recall the past and past events using by various
methods…sometimes it can be accomplished through meditation or entering a deep trance…it
is during these sequences that one will see and hear a noted past event…this
event may be concerning themselves or it may be something that is totally
foreign to them…or on occasion, such an event can be totally spontaneous and
not pre-planned…most of these ‘events’ that are described come randomly to the
subject and choice of recollection is not possible…it is the opposite to precognition where one foretells what
will occur...sometimes this type of thing might be called postcognition,
backward knowing, or past evocation…whatever you choose to call it, it is quite
odd isn’t it?...it would be like having an eyewitness to the past.
