Mental Telepathy – A True Story








Mental Telepathy – Is It Real?















by: Steve Gillman
















What is mental telepathy? Telepathy is defined as “communication through means other than the senses.” Add the “mental,” and you have the concept of minds sending and receiving information without the senses, using something akin to radio waves, “thought waves,” or whatever the various theories claim.
















Mental Telepathy – A True Story
















One day, when we were children, my mother and father were in another city an hour or two away, with relatives. They were playing bingo at a church. Meanwhile, near home, my brother Andy was thrown to the ground by a bully. His collar bone was broken. At about that same moment, my mother stood up in the middle of the game, and announced to my father, “Andy has been hurt!” They immediately left for home.
















Was this mental telepathy? It sure seemed like it at the time. Or is there another explanation? More on that in a moment.
















The Evidence
















Let’s review the evidence for mental telepathy. That should take about a minute, because there is no good evidence for its existence. Now, if we are to review what passes as evidence, we find a common pattern. Tests that “prove” this phenomenon are done in some way that is very flawed.
















The “researchers” in ESP (extrasensory perception) and related areas have less of an interest in the truth than in proving that these things are real (my opinion). This affects how they perform their experiments, often not because of dishonest intentions, but due to unconscious factors. The most common mistake made in this type of research is that of “selecting” results.
















For example, guessing what suit a playing card is, you would – by the odds – be right about 25% of the time, because there are 4 suits to choose from. Suppose you try this with 10 trials of 20 cards each, and then repeat it with 30 other subjects, for a total of 300 trials. The subjects will do better than the odds dictate in some trials, and worse in others.
















This is normal. A coin flipped many times doesn’t alternate systematically between heads and tails, but flip it enough times, and it will average about 50% heads and 50% tails. That is, it will if you tally all the flips. Concentrate your mental powers on heads, and then don’t count 100 of the flips that came up tails, and you have a test that “proves” you can affect the coin using the power of your mind alone.
















Would scientists (or those that claim to be) do this? It happens all the time, but it is usually more subtle. Consider the card experiments. If the researcher already believes strongly in mental telepathy, he might unconsciously find reason to exclude non-confirming trials (the subject wasn’t ready, the “sender” wasn’t concentrating, etc.). Only count trials with the results you want, and you make it look like the subjects are indeed psychic.
















An Explanation Of Mental Telepathy
















A scenario: My mother knew that Andy was having trouble with this bully. Earlier in the day she had been nearby when Andy mentioned that he was worried, because he had to deliver newspapers near the house where this bully lived. She wasn’t listening, but the words registered in her subconscious mind. Finally relaxing at the bingo game, her mind finally processed the information, and she “sensed” that her son was in danger. Mother’s intuition we’ll call it – but this wouldn’t be mental telepathy, right?
















Is that the explanation? No. It is one explanation. A more scientific approach than the one used by true believers, is to leave questions open. Hypothesize, perhaps, and test those hypothesis, but don’t assume an answer before there is good evidence. It better to leave things unexplained than to invent things and believe in them just because we want them to be true. We may never know what the explanation is for much of what is called “mental telepathy,” but do we need to know right now?

The Human Mind


20110609-113633.jpg




by: Per Hogseth




The human mind is the most incredible computer it would be possible to imagine. Yet no one knows where it is! Scientists have made detailed studies of the brain, but have been unable to locate where the mind is.




Our brain is composed of some 14 trillion brain cells! A very few people are making use of perhaps less than 10% of their mental capability. Most of us are probably using nearer 1%. So the potential we have is virtually unlimited.




For our purposes, imagine that the brain is in two parts: the Conscious mind and the Subconscious (or Inner) mind. The conscious mind does all our day to day thinking, our communication with others and general thoughts each day of our lives. Do you realise that you are thinking at the rate of about 1,200 words a minute?




The Subconscious mind looks after all our involuntary functions: the beating of our hearts, the breathing of our lungs. It also has stored in it every single experience and every thought we have ever made from the moment we were born. Some people believe that it also contains all the memories of our past lives as well. As it contains memories of everything that has ever happened, we can use it to locate information we need. For instance, you may be walking down the street and suddenly bump into someone you haven’t seen for a long while. Whilst talking, you are frantically thinking of their name, and suddenly it will come to you, hopefully whilst your are still in conversation!




If it is something that occurred many years ago, your subconscious mind may have to spend a long time locating the necessary information. That is why we can sometimes have a problem when we go to bed. In the morning the answer will suddenly pop into our heads.




Admittedly, it doesn’t work exactly the way we want it to. Yet our brain is perfect, it remembers and files away everything. Sometimes, though, our recall is faulty. When something is “on the tip of our tongue” our brain is not working as well as we would like it ot. The best way to handle this is to temporarily “forget” what we are trying to remember and soon it will come back to us whilst we are thinking about something completely different. If you are constant absent-minded, it would pay to take a memory training course. (contact me)




There is a third part of our mind also. This is the Super-Conscious mind. Hardly anything is known about it, but this is where everything really important happens. Ideas come from here. So does creativity, and ESP. (Extra Sensory Perception) When you come up with a good idea, it comes directly from your Super-Conscious mind, through your Sub-Conscious mind to your Conscious mind, and it is then up to you to act upon it.




Your Super-Conscious mind is your creative force, and is the most important part of your mind. It contains all the answers to anything you may ever want to know. Writers, artists, composers, inventors, clairvoyants, and all sort of other people use this part of their mind when doing whatever it is they do. Sometimes these people feel totally inspired.




A composer may start on a melody and then, all of a sudden, the rest of the tune just comes with no apparent effort on his part. It has all come from directly from the Super-Conscious mind.




Your Super-Conscious mind contains all the information of the universe and you have access to it whenever you want. All you have to do is ask.




You have already used it many, many times. Say, for instance, that you have a major problem that has to be resolved the following day. You worry about it and think about it, and find it hard to get to sleep as it is still bothering you. When you wake up the following morning, the answer suddenly pops into your head. “Eureka” you cry and you happily go and solve the problem. Where did the answer come from? You did not have it when you fell asleep. It was not in your Conscious mind, nor was it in your Sub-Conscious.




What happened was, while you were asleep, the Sub-conscious contacted the Super-Conscious mind and asked for the answer. Next time you have a problem of this sort, tell your Sub-Conscious mind about it and say that you need an answer by a certain time.




Overnight is fine, but two days would be better. Don’t tell it how you want the problem resolved. Just ask for the answer and confidently expect it to come. Ask again several times during the time limit you have set, and your Super-Conscious mind will solve your problem.

Remote Viewing Techniques – Secrets of the Most Powerful Techniques


Before you begin a practice to achieve any type of success—personal, professional or spiritual, invest a little time learning about the mind and its connection to the non-physical world. After all, it’s this connection to the unknown, to the invisible world of spiritual forces that will help you achieve extraordinary results in your everyday life.


Remote influencing and remote viewing are very powerful tools for developing your inner power.


FOUR LEVELS OF MIND AWARENESS


According to behavior scientists, has four distinct states of mental awareness: beta, alpha, theta and delta. In each of these levels of awareness, there are distinct brainwaves. Each state corresponds to different levels of mind and body control.


In the first state of awareness, beta, your brainwaves oscillate the most—between 14-30 times per second. As your mind quiets down, it starts to produce slower brain wave activity, such as alpha and theta. When you relax even deeper, your mind enters the domain of delta where brainwaves oscillate between 1 and 4 times per second.


Delta is the domain of mystical and magical experiences. It is the deepest level of awareness; it is the doorway to the unknown. Delta is our greatest link to the divine, to the Creator of all things, to Universal Intelligence.


THE DEEPER YOU GO WITHIN, THE GREATER YOUR MIND AND BODY CONTROL


The deeper you travel into the depths of your mind, the greater will be your ability to connect to your greatest power, to your inner vision or higher self. The reason is this. The closer you get to delta, the closer you’ll be to accessing the Creator of all things—the most powerful force there is.


The subconscious mind is a bridge between the physical world and the spiritual world. It is a bridge that you will need to cross, rather than stay on, contrary to what many believe.


As you cross this bridge and travel deeper within your inner world, you will access the forces that will help you achieve extraordinary results. This is true not only for remote viewing and for remote influencing, but for all powerful meditative-type practices.


LIMITATIONS OF REMOTE VIEWING AT THE ALPHA LEVEL


New Jersey: remote view

There are many courses that teach people how to remote view while operating at the alpha level. While millions of people have experienced some basic levels of remote sensing (viewing) while at the alpha level, there are limitations with remote viewing at this level of awareness.


The problem with remote viewing in the alpha state is that you still receive a lot of information that originates from the beta level, the lowest level of mind awareness. It’s similar to ordinary dreaming, when one draws information from the beta level. Perceptions from the beta level is typically filled with a lot of mind noise and can not be relied on.


THE SECRET TO TRULY EFFECTIVE REMOTE VIEWING


The secret to the most powerful remote viewing technique lies in how far you travel into the deeper levels of your mind. Unless you reach the higher levels of heightened consciousness, your mind will be subject to sensing information from the beta level, a level of mental awareness that is greatly limited.


Remote viewing techniques that teach you how to access theta will be far more effective in teaching you remote viewing. That’s because theta is the closest level to the ultimate universal mind, it’s the direct doorway into delta. The delta level operates outside of time and space; it is infinity.


In short, it’s when you remote view at the theta level that you can truly remote sense the unknown and be far more effective in your remote viewing practices.
