Extrasensory Perception – Can This Phenomena Be Manipulated?
Sadly there are still many professionals and other people who are sceptical of extrasensory perception. They misunderstand others who use ESP openly when mind reading or even expressing clairvoyant abilities. And clearly there is still a lack of knowledge and understanding in this field.
All humans have had an ESP experience some or other time and are really not an unfamiliar practice. We have all used the term such as I have a strong gut feeling, or my sixth sense tell me not to do this etc. The sixth sense is a natural warning “survival” mechanism. And believe it or not every living creature on the planet shares has this ability in one way or another.
Scientists have been trying to pinpoint the source of extrasensory perception even parapsychologists have been doing the ganzfeld experiment trying to provide hard evidence that ESP exists. Again scientists do not accept due to lack of a theory which would explain extrasensory perception as well as the lack of experimental techniques supplying reliable evidence.
Since antiquity extrasensory perception has been noted in ancient cultures up to modern day, and those that had such “powers” where termed as having second sight, hence thousands were persecuted and burned on the stake and termed as witches. In many tribal cultures the medicine people communicated with ancestors and spirits alike.
Scientists and professionals in later years started to design Zener Cards to experiment in order to have some kind of evidence ESP exists. A simple set of twenty five cards were made all containing five defined symbols like circles, wave like patterns, squares, stars and crosses whereby they would then see if the recipient could tell what symbol was on which card.
The test ran as follows whereby the psychologist or researcher would look as say 4 cards, and the person being tested would in turn tell the researcher what cards they had in their hand. The cards were shuffled by hand as well as a machine to make sure there was no specified order in which the cards were laid out. Later a dice was also used, and both methods proved better than chance. Eventually after many years of research extrasensory perception became accepted. This then led scientists to start investigating into the unconscious mental processes which would eventually lead them to understanding the human personality.
It was later found that people who were aware of extrasensory perception on taking the card or dice test scored highly as opposed to those who were sceptical. And this was defined as follows – believers (sheep) and sceptics (goats) hence this is now known by professionals as the sheep-goat effect. Professionals then went even further and started including meditation, and the REM sleep procedures which later proved even more effective.
Nowadays extrasensory perception is widely accepted by professionals as well as most people accepting ESP as factual. This now falls under the auspices termed parapsychology with sub categories of psychic phenomena termed as telepathy, astral projection, as well as telekinesis and this phenomena is accepted as standard by nearly all professionals as a natural and spontaneous occurrence. They also discovered that ESP cannot be controlled or repeated in any way.
