The phenomenon of telepathy
by Jimmy Henderson
According to the world famous psychologist Carl Jung we are all connected at a deep subconscious level of the mind, which he called the 'collective unconscious'. This interconnectedness
of all minds can explain various phenomena such as telepathy and absent healing, as the mental barriers separating individuals do
not exist at these very deep levels. The normal boundaries of consciousness are created
by each person’s subconscious mind as a protective mechanism to prevent a sensory overload, as one can well imagine what it would be like to continuously hear the thoughts of others, even when not present.
However, whilst in a subjective meditative state, one is
able to bypass these mechanisms, allowing the extension and projection of both consciousness and intent. In this way, thoughts, messages, feelings or even uplifting, healing or harmonious energies can be communicated between persons.
Normally , if one wishes to connect to another sentient being via his or her subconscious, it is necessary to first enter a very subjective altered state such as meditation, allowing one's own subconscious mind to open.
Second, it is necessary to set a suitable intention and formulate an image of the person in the mind from memory or by focusing on a photograph. One can also simply state his or her name or that of a
third-party family member or friend who has a prior relationship with this
person. This allows one to 'dial up' the correct 'psychic address' of the person.
Finally, one has to wait for a connection to be established, which can be felt either intuitively, or using a gesture such as the raised palm of the right hand. A connection will be felt as a slight bump or pressure on the palm. Once this connection has been established, one simply has to state the message simply and clearly, or else enter a state of reflective listening to detect any impressions or words which will impose on the mind similar to a daydream.
This phenomenon of telepathy and the conditions required for it are best illustrated by a case study in which I was personally involved.
This was rather an amusing incident that took place a few years ago when I had given a short talk
on my recently published book at a local bookshop. I had just finished my talk, when clear as a bell, I picked up a female voice in my mind and the
words ‘sounds like a lot of work!!’ I immediately glanced in front of me and saw a young woman looking down. At that time I got the distinct impression that it was her
thoughts into which I had inadvertently tuned, but being concerned that a verbal reply may disturb her, I did not respond at all.
What
is interesting about this case is that the telepathic contact took place
spontaneously, without my setting an intention or any obvious change in my state
of mind. I do, however, recall that at the time, my mind was quite clear and
unencumbered, and I could very well have momentarily entered a receptive state
of mind. The fact that I was in the woman’s immediate vicinity could also have
played a role, as she obviously had the book and its author in mind when she entertained
that thought.
This suggests that we are continually faced
with a barrage of the thoughts of others, which could flood and
overcome our sensory processes if it were not for the protective barriers imposed
by selective perception and attention. However, as in the case of someone hearing his or her name in a noisy crowded room, we can become aware of a message which has personal relevance, in this case, a
comment on my book. However, in most cases such communications are simply ignored
or drowned out by the cacophony of the thinking mind.
