Telepathy is the psychic ability that allows us to experience another’s mind from afar, something that has probably happened to all of us and we call it chance. And precisely, what has led us to think of this form of communication as a “paranormal” phenomenon is the fact that the medium through which the messages are transmitted is unknown.
But what if it’s something we can’t perceive, like ether? Rupert, a biologist at the University of Cambridge and passionate about telepathy – he studies this phenomenon even between pets and their owners – has proposed something similar.
According to Sheldrake, there are morphic fields in which a kind of transhistorical information passes: a memory inherent to existence that is “inherited” from generation to generation, and that could explain telepathy. This theory fits with the quantum view of space-time, according to which unknown and imperceptible substances could exist in the cosmos, such as the ether.
Likewise, at the quantum level for a kind of telepathy or morphic field it is that of the “link” between particles. According to quantum physics, it does not matter that a pair of subatomic molecules have never shared the same space or the same time: they will still influence each other, in the past or in the future – something that, moreover, works as a wonderful metaphor quantum of love.
But as scientific guru Michio Kaku explains, it would be too difficult to develop telepathy through this subatomic interconnection, since it would involve coordinating our trillions of atoms with those of another person so that they vibrate in unison in each mind.
Actually, telepathy could be something more intuitive. How to check it?
Sheldrake has studied telepathy as an evolutionary phenomenon, thinking of it as a psychic extension and an empirically verifiable ability. That is why she has developed some experiments so that anyone can test his innate telepathic gifts and, in the process, help her research on the subject.
This and a little mimesis will open the doors to new and unsuspected forms of psychic communication. Do you dare to try it? Here are three experiments to get you started.
1. Can you tell when someone sees you from a distance?
For this experiment you need a friend, a computer with Internet, and synchronized clocks. You must connect at the same time with your friend and both must share a video of each other in real time. Each one must watch their video at intervals, writing down the moments in which they have seen the video over the course of 5 minutes, and also the minutes or seconds that they believe they have been seen by the other.
That’s all. It is about testing if we can perceive when we are in the other’s mind, specifically when they are apprehending us with sight, and if the effects of that perception change, for example, depending on the distance or whether there are more observers (which is valid in the experiment).
You can do it on your own or through the Rupert Sheldrake portal.
2. Telephone telepathy
Another of Sheldrake’s experiments consists of using telephone calls to find out how lucid our telepathic intuition is. Although the experiment has only been carried out in the United Kingdom, the United States and , the truth is that you can try it yourself with three other people.
The experiment consists of a person receiving six random calls from three different people (they can choose their turns through a game of dice or something that leaves it completely to chance). Whoever receives the calls should try to know who is calling them.
You can play with the distance, as well as the degree of familiarity you have with others, since as Sheldrake has verified, 61% of the successes have occurred when the calls are between very close people.
3. Blend in with others
It is likely that telepathy, being something very intuitive, develops more powerfully (even to the point of mimesis) between individuals who constantly coexist. With those with whom we spend a lot of time it is easier to feel and create unexpected connections, which is proven daily when we spontaneously know what the other will do or say. You can try to investigate this telepathic mimesis through a session with someone you live or work with.
Try locking yourself in a room with someone or going to a quiet place where you can focus only on each other: look into each other’s eyes for a long period of time and then take turns trying to guess what the other is thinking or feeling. This way they will check their degree of mimesis and how much there is psychic communication between them.
Try these little telepathic games and test the communicative power of your psyche. This is also a good way to show our degree of empathy.
