SUBJECT: Advanced Individual Training for CENTER LANE Personnel(U)
1. (S/CL-3/NOFORN) The first phase of advanced training for
CENTER LANE personnel began in March 1982, with in-house applica-
tion of the Discovery Series, produced by the Monroe Institute of
Applied Sciences (MIAs), Route 1, Bax 175, Faber, VA 22938. The
Discovery Series training involved the use of specially designed,
commercially available audio tapes which produced enhanced levels
of mental concentration (see Incl 1}.
2. (S/CL-3/NO.~"ORN) The second phase of training was initiated in
July 1952, with the Gateway Program, also from MIAS. The Gateway
Program (see Intl 2) involved sending project personnel for
resident training at MIAS. Project personnel were scheduled for
attendance along with members of the public. This phase of
advanced training further developed the ability of project
personnel to achieve enhanced levels of mental concentration,
improved their target acquisition, and increased target resolution
c3uring operational missians.
3. (S/CL-3/NaFflRN) The next pYaase of advanced training for
CENTER LANE personnel will also involve the educational facilities
of MIAs . It is proposed that Robert A . Monroe, I~'ounder and
Executive Director of MIAS, be paid as a consultant to train
CENTER LANE personnel in the use of the patented Hemisync process
developed by Monroe. The purpose of this training is to enhance
the identified ability of selected CENTER LANE source personnel to
both acquire ar-d describe information of intelligence interest
unavailable by any other collection method. Training will be
specifically tailored and designed to meet. the requirements of
this office arad extend beyond the confines of the public program
currently offerr~d at MIAS. Training is expected to last ten weeks
and will include:
a. Instruction in the use and application of nanintrusive bica-
monitoring equipment employed by the consultant.
b. Instruction in and the development of Hemisync tapes,
custom made for project sources.
c. Instruction in monitoring techniques used during the
Fiemisync praces.a .

d. Instruction in the use o~ environmentally controlled areas
during the ~Iemisync process.
e. Instruction in the application and interpretation of
information reported through the use of the Hemi_sync process.
The consultant, Robert A. Monroe, will provide the following in
support of this training:
a. Custom made Hemisync tapes, develaped during training, fors
exclusive use of CEN'T'ER LAi1E personnel. These tapes will be
designed to enhance the demonstrated perceptual abilities of
source personnel and will become the property of this office.
b. Training facilities to include all equipment and supplies
required.
c. Food and lodging for the project personnel who will be
tralIled .
4. (C/NOFORN) Funding for this next phase of advanced training
will be from ICF in the amount of ~24,4Q0. This amount represents
the total cast of the training for two project personnel excluding
transportation which will be by government automobile. Funds for
tr.is training are not otherwise available. Use of ICF precludes
the unauthorized disclosure of information classified SECRET/CL-4/
NOFORN under tree CENTER LANE Special Access Program . Funds are
available.
5. (U) This action is not in contravention with AR 381-1q.
6. (U) Robert A, Monroe was granted a SECRET security clearance
on 11 September 1980, by HQ, USAINSCOM. Flis DA Form 873 is
