What is telepathy?
The term of telepathy is a combination of the two ancient Greek words: τῆλε, tele, meaning “distant”, and πάθος, pathos, or – patheia, meaning “feeling, perception, passion, affliction, experience”. As a matter of fact, it means the ability of a brain to transfer its thoughts, images, colors, feelings, tastes and odors, its psychic and emotional status, or even entire paintings, to another brain or another organism at any distance, without using any communication means that the modern science is aware of.
Frederic W. H. Myers, a founder of the Society for Psychical Research in Great Britain, was the first to use this word back in 1882. He carried out experiments on transferring thoughts elsewhere. Later on, other researchers carried out similar experiments in many countries of Asia, Europe, USA and USSR.
The belief in telepathy has its roots in ancient times. Unknown, strange phenomena, impossible to explain or even understand, always attracted people. In the eyes of an individual, “phenomena” means any events missing scientific approach to studying, but should the subject matter be beyond the explainable, then it was considered paranormal.
Telepathy is mentioned in works of ancient philosophers, scientists and even religious figures, who took their prayer for an act of communication with God by means of transmitting thoughts far beyond, and receiving the corresponding information.
Foresight and future prediction phenomenon may also be listed therewith, being still unexplainable, though one is aware of amazing prophecies by prophets from the Bible, as well as by such historical figures as Nostradamus, Wolf Messing, Vanga and many others, including those living in our time.
One would hardly doubt that intuition often helps us in life and make important decisions affecting our own future and the future of loved ones. Fewer would ever think intuition and telepathy are two sides of the same coin; in one case you share thoughts with another individual at a distance, in another case you align your thoughts with the Uniform Information Field or the Mind of the Universe.
Telepathy exists; it is now an axiom for any person in good mind. For example, a mother feels her child well even at a distance, and feels all positive or negative emotions of the child. Yet, it is still unclear, what exactly is the nature of those impulses that transfer the thoughts.
Initially, scientists suggested that transmitting telepathic signals might be based on weak radio waves generated by a human brain. Further studies, however, nixed such a suggestion.
For example, literary source available for public reported about successful experiments on transmitting telepathic information by participants inside a submarine deep underwater, and far from the submarine’s base.
Later, similar experiments on telepathy were carried out with a group of speleologists, who were for a long time inside a cave, where no radio waves could penetrate.
In 1971, American newspapers reported about a successful telepathy session with an astronaut onboard Appolo-14.
In USSR, V.M. Bekhterev, P.P. Lazarev, G.A. Kozhevnikov, and others studied telepathy. Later on, there were multiple laboratory experiments with individuals who claimed they possessed extrasensory abilities, such as Ninel Kulagina and Wolf Messing.
Scientists concluded telepathy knows no obstacles such as distance or isolation of any kind. Telepathic information overcomes any material obstacles.
Based on earlier studies, one may conclude that telepathic communication may successfully be established with future Moon expedition participants, even those who would be on the opposite side of the Moon, and even with participants of future interplanetary journeys within the Solar system, and even beyond it.
Also, I used to communicate telepathically with people from different lands, including those living on the opposite side of our planet, with former citizen of this country living now in America; furthermore, their remote location did not affect the communication quality anyhow.
For the purpose of control in real time, ordinary telephony and the Skype were also engaged during the remote testing for telepathic abilities.
It turned out, that virtually any individual might learn uncomplicated esoteric methodologies related to physiological transformation of one’s body and the following entrance to the Astral World. Surprisingly, the individual would start understanding it is in the Astral World, where one could fuse with any other person of the material world, regardless where the other person is located, to share disparate information and transmitting, at any distance, not only one’s thoughts, but also emotions, tastes and odors, visual images, including specific form of material objects, their generalized temperature characteristics, various colors, and even paintings.
In addition, the human mind would then open cha
Examples of telepathic communication
This chapter comprises some examples of telepathic communication, as described in various literary sources from the reference list at the end of the book.
There are two types of telepathy: spontaneous, emerging spontaneously in everyday life, and experimental, invoked in those undergoing dedicated experiments.
People may demonstrate telepathic state spontaneously, when a person is in a dangerous situation causing fear, pain, or, alternatively, feeling great joy or meditating deep in a prayer.
Spontaneous telepathy has been known since the ancient time. It was also described in fiction literature (“Olesja” by L. Kuprin, “Die Brüder Lautensack” by Lion Feuchtwanger, “Jean-Christophe” by Romain Rolland and other similar literal works), many of which became the basis for multiple oral interpretations.
Listed among the most famous telepathic communications is the case, which took place on the day September 9th, 1848, with one high-rank military man. Being severely wounded, he thought that was the end of his days, he asked to have a ring removed from his finger and given to his wife, who was 150 miles away from the battlefield. The latter then stated, that she was half-dreaming, when she clearly saw her husband brought away from the battlefield saying “Please, take this ring and give it to my wife”. Both parties later documentarily confirmed the event.
William Thomas Stead, a second-sighted person from the Great Britain, by means of the automated writing, was able to receive telepathic messages from other people he knew. Once, as he was thinking of one his friends, a female, he unwillingly wrote the following words on a paper sheet: “I am very sorry to tell you I have had a very painful experience, of which I am almost ashamed to speak. I left Haslemere at 2:27 p.m. in a second-class carriage, in which there were two ladies and one gentleman. When the train stopped at Godalming the ladies got out, and I was left alone with the man. After the train started he left his seat and came close to me. I was alarmed and repelled him. He refused to go away, and tried to kiss me. I was furious. We had a struggle. I seized his umbrella and struck him, but it broke, and I was begi
William Thomas Stead sent his secretary up with a note saying merely he was very sorry to hear what had happened, and added, “Be sure and bring the man’s umbrella on Wednesday.” She wrote in reply, “I am very sorry you know anything about it. I had made up my mind to tell nobody”.
