Somebody's thoughts of yesterday,today and maybe tomorrow

Telepathy


Telepathy is direct transference of thought from one person (sender or agent) to another (receiver or percipient) without using the usual sensory channels of communication, hence a form of extrasensory perception (ESP). While the existence of telepathy has not yet been proved, some Para psychological research studies have produced favorable results using such techniques as card guessing with a special deck of five sets of five cards. The agent may simply think of a random order of the five card symbols while the percipient tries to think of the order on which the agent is concentrating.

In a general ESP test the sender concentrates on the face of one card at a time while the receiver tries to think of the symbol. Both subjects are, of course, separated by a screen or some greater obstacle or distance. Scores significantly above chance are extremely rare, particularly as testing methods have become more rigorous.

Precognition is supernormal knowledge of future events, with emphasis not upon mentally causing events to occur but upon predicting those the occurrence of which the subject claims has already been determined. Like telepathy and clairvoyance, precognition is said to operate without recourse to the normal senses and thus to be a form of extrasensory perception (esp).

There is a long tradition of anecdotal evidence for foreseeing the future in dreams and by various devices such as observing the flight of birds or examining the entrails of sacrificial animals. Precognition has been tested with subjects required to predict the future order of cards in a deck about to be shuffled or to foretell results of dice throws, but the statistical support for it has generally been less convincing than that from experiments in telepathy and clairvoyance.

Telepathy is instinctual. Primitive species used it as a survival mechanism. It involves mind to mind contact - communication - of one mind with another by means beyond the normal or ordinary - beyond the frequencies of the five physical senses - sight, hearing, touch, taste, smell.

Telepathic abilities are about connecting frequency with that which you which to 'read'. It is like turning on a radio and finding the right station. You just have to know how to 'tune in'. For a few people this skill comes easy - but on the norm - telepathy is never developed though many people try. Different meditation techniques and learning to focus the mind are the key.

Of course the more you practice the better you get.

Once you open the door to telepathy - it should work like a light switch. You can turn it off - tune off - or turn it on by focusing your thoughts. Rarely does one find that they are bombarded by the thoughts of others all the time. It would drive you crazy.

Human DNA is not activated in a way that makes us natural telepaths - in most cases. We are in the third dimension - the physical realms -to experience emotions. Telepathy would make it more complicated than it already is. Of course no one would be able to lie anymore - so perhaps humanity could live in peace - but that is not why we come into the physical. We experience here as if in a Matrix - the Holodeck - a Virtual Reality game - for the drama, the emotions - the thrills and chills - until one day we pause the game and say, "I am tired of this. I can think 'out of the box' and want those skills returned. Give me back my powers." It is then we go in seek of the tools which are innately ours.

Dreams bring telepathic messages. They are called precognitive dreams. If they are about the 'world' rather than our personal lives, they are called 'collective dreams'.

Deceased souls sometimes bring messages through dreamtime. Communication is by thought form using symbols. In dreams you are moving faster than the speed of light. This is similar to meditation, time travel and remote viewing. You meet up with spirits and share adventures and information. In dreamtime you move faster and higher.

As your consciousness returns to the physical body the lower your get to your body - the more it slows down ...slower...and slower... until you enter your consciousness mind and wake up in the sluggish place - we call 3D. it is here that the concept of linear time exists. You can best understand this by remembering that in your dreams - you move from event to event but time is not marked. There is no time beyond 3D as frequency of light - and that is all we are - is moving too fast. Remember - the lower and slower the frequency - the less likely to achieve telepathy or other abilities that work in faster light. 3D appears to be as dull as it gets.

Lovers definitely are more in tuned telepathically as being in love at that level is a very high frequency. This is not just about sex - though it is an aspect of it. Sexual activity is often telepathic in that one is responding to the needs of their partner on a higher level of expression.

Telepathy between members of the same family - or close friends is common as they learn to adjust to each other's frequencies. There always seem to be one member of every family - usually a woman - who has psychic or telepathic abilities. Mother's sense when children are in trouble. When you are in panic mode - the adrenaline flows and the telepathy kicks in to those would tune in to help you.

People often sense the death of a family member. These make the most dramatic stories - heightened tension, nick-of-time rescues. However, keep in mind that telepathic situations may be happening all the time, but we lack the awareness to recognize them. In times of crisis we sent out our message and those who are in tune will pick it up.

Twins are often telepathic with each other creating these abilities when they are infants. they generally are in the same frequency at the same time and learn to communicate with words. very often it is just about a single thought - hunger. Telepathy between twins or family members can remain for a life time.





I have friends who play telepathy games with their children - wherein one member will think of something and the second person has to guess what he is thinking about.

As a rule, the rate of success for this type of telepathy is often higher than with those outside of the family .

Family members who are learning challenged - often rely on 'higher senses' to connect with those around them.

When you are talking about 'psychic sensitives' - they train themselves - or are naturally gifted to send and receive messages. This innate gift is based on their DNA opening at an early age.



Pets living with a family also show a high degree of psychic awareness with certain family members - not necessarily the person who brought the pet home - but the person the pet has the karma with - which is why the pet came into the family in the first place.

For the teenage readers who strongly desire this skill and that of telekinesis - I am sorry but do not teach by email. You need to find a physical teacher and someone to practice with.


When I do a psychic reading I connect telepathically with my client's
soul
thoughts
spirit guides - deceased loved ones
another aspect of their soul - existing elsewhere


Messages are given in symbols - symbolic imagery clairvoyance or in 'thought form' which sounds like someone is talking to you - clairaudience in your mind. It what we call your 'inner voice' - your 'little voice' that guides you when you take the time to listen and believe it is not part of your thought processes.

Funny you should mention "Telepathy"

I think I know someone who's got that sort of thing. I think the best way to be telepathetic is to eat as many ice cubes at night as you can without having the urge to jump any fences. :D And like the article says, the more you practice the better you get ... so get on that ice cube chewing! :D

That is interesting, Tora ... especially that part about the Matrix and how you gotta enter it somehow? :D

"Brilliant! Did you already know you were going to take this test today?" LOL and then some cartoon ...

News From Medicine

Frozen Ark:
- Three British instiutions are creating a tissue bank of frozen DNA to preserve the life codes of thousands of creatures on the verge of extinction. Some scientists believe that over the next three decades as many as one-quarter of known mammals and 10 percent of birds will die out because of climate change and the loss of habitat to human settlement.

Folic Acid and Pediatric Cancer:
Research at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto has found that an Ontario program to increase the amount of folic acid in food resulted in a 60 percent reduction in the incidence of neuroblastoma in children age 17 and younger. Neuroblastoma is an aggresive childhood cancer and the second most common pediatric tumour. The researchers - from the hospital and the University of Toronto - examined trends before and after a mandatory folic acid food-fortification program that began in Ontario in 1997. Folic acid, which has already been shown to preven defects that lead to conditions such as spina bifida, is found primarily in dark-green vegetables, such as spinach and broccoli, legumes and citrus fruits. For women planning to conceive, the findings may lead to new rommendations for folic acid intake higher than the 0.1 milligram to 0.2 milligram daily dose currently recommended.

Floss - for Baby's Sake
Pregnant women who have their teeth scraped of plaque and tartar may dramatically reduce their risk of having a premature baby, a amajor study suggests. A research team led by Dr. Marjorie K. Jeffcoat, dean of the School od Dental Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, found that women with gum disease who have a simple scaling and root planing treatment cut their risk of going into spontaneous preterm labour by as much as 84 percent. The sutdy, published in the August 2003 issue of Journal of Periodontology, builds on research that shows pregnant women with red, inflamed or bleeding gums are up to eight times more likely to have a premature baby than women with good oral health. One theory is that the toxins from bacteria that live in the plaque can enter a woman's bloodstream and kick-start labour before a baby has a chance to reach normal weight. Jeffcoat says that any woman thinking of becoming pregnant, or who has already conceived, should have her gums and teeth checked. Daily flossing and regular cleanings are good ways to prevent gum disease.

Detecting Heart Attacks:
- When people with chest pain go to the ER, doctors often diagnose their condition with an EKG or blood enzyme test. But cardiologist Andrew Arai, of the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute in Bethesda, Md., found that MRI detected 84 percent of patients who'd suffered a heart attack or had signs of an impending attack. The blood enzyme test caught 40 percent and the EKG, just 16. "MRI is quick, accuracte and can help us detect problems before permanent damage occurs," says Arai.

The most commercially successful movies ever:

Here's the current Top 10 (North American box office gross in U.S. dollars; not adjusted for inflation):

1. Titanic (1997), $601 mill.
2. Star Wars (1977), $461 mill.
3. E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial (1982), $435 mill.
4. Shrek 2 (2004), $432 mill. +++
5. The Phantom Menace (1999), $431 mill.
6. Spider-Man (2001), $404 mill.
7. The Return of the King (2003), $377 mill.
8. The Passion of the Christ (2004), $370 mill.
9. Jurassic Park (1993), $357 mill.
10. Spider-Man 2 (2004), $351 mill. +++

These totals are cumulative and include multiple releases for several of the movies. Shrek 2 and Spider-Man 2 are still in theatres, and it seems pretty likely that Shrek 2 will finish its run at No. 3, while Spider-Man 2 should make it to at least No. 8.

Now, I know what you're thinking — or should be thinking: "Shrek 2 was a great movie, but come on! The third biggest movie of all time? Bigger than E.T.? Bigger than The Sound of Music? Bigger than Gone With the Wind?! Something doesn't seem right."

And of course, this is due in large part to the fact that movies are measured in dollars (whereas things like books, CDs and pro sports attendance are not) and people are paying $15 for tickets these days.

Adjusting for inflation gives you a better idea of how many people actually went to see the movie, and makes the list look a little more reasonable.

There are different methods of estimating gross in current dollars, so different sites have slightly different lists.

Cool thanks for those figures Yudansha. I am surprised the MATRIX wasn't listed.

Why do they call illegal activity "bootlegging" ?

The 'Oxford Englis Dictionary' defines a "boot-leg" as, perhaps obviously, the leg of a tall boot and says that from this arose the term "bootlegger" to describe someone who carries liquor in his boot-legs. It quotes a New York publication that printed, in 1890, "The 'boot-legger' is a grim spectre. He is a man who wears boots in whose tops are concealed a flask or two of liquor." The first reference to "bootleg" actually appeared a year earlier, when the 'Omaga Herald' wrote, "There is as much whisky consumed in Iowa now as there was before 'for medical purposes only,' and on the bootleg plan." By 1893, inferior coffee was being called bootleg, and in 1895 William H. Chambliss, author of 'Chambliss Diary; or, Society as It Really Is,' which was published in New York, described the perils of travelling in the American West when he wrote, "The menu at the meal stations along through Texas and Arizona consists of whit-leather steak, overdue eggs, bad-smelling butter, corn dodgers and bootleg coffee." Today, the term refers to any item that is illicitly transported or produced, such as recordings.
