Carde,
Remote viewing is probably some kind of a siddhi, such as visualization, but I
don't know the sanskrit term for it. It seems like this ability is tied in
with some kind of new theory in cosmology. Or it could be a form of of an
advanced technique in MMY's age of enlightenment meditation.

It seems to be one of the results of pravRtty-aaloka-nyaasa (saMyama on the
inner light),
namely viprakRSTa-jñaanam (~viprakrishta-gyaanam):
Sutra III.25
प्रवृत्त्यालोकन्यासात् सूक्ष्मव्यवहितविप्रकृष्टज्ञानम्॥२५॥
pravr̥tty-āloka-nyāsāt sūkṣmā-vyāvahita-viprakr̥ṣṭa-jñānam ॥25॥
[HA]: By Applying The Effulgeant Light Of Higher Sense-Perception (Jyotismati)
Knowledge Of Subtle Objects, Or Things Obstructed From View, Or Placed At A
Great Distance, Can Be Acquired.
[IT]: (26):
Knowledge of the small, the hidden or the distant by directing the light of
superphysical faculty.
[VH]: By projecting the brilliance of the pravrtti-finer activity (of citta),
knowledge of the subtle, concealed, and distant.
[BM]: From placing light on the minds activity, one has knowledge of that
which is subtle, hidden, and distant.
[SS]: (26):
By samyama on the Light within, the knowledge of the subtle, hidden and
remotes is obtained. [Note: subtle as atoms, hidden as treasure, remote as far
distanct lands]
[SP]: (26) By making samyama on the Inner Light one obtains knowledge of what
is subtle, hidden, or far distant.
[SV]: (26):
By making Samyama on that effulgent light comes the knowledge of the fine, the
obstructed, and the remote.
