|
History of ESP
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
As most people see it, the brain is a machine whose outputs depends
|
|||
|
|
essentually on input fed in through the senses. Yet history is rich in stories
|
|||
|
|
of individuals whose minds seemed capable of more: people claiming knowledge
|
|||
|
|
that their brains could not have gained through any senses known to science.
|
|||
|
|
The first work on ESP was done by the Society for Physical Research in London
|
|||
|
|
founded a century ago. Scientists have run thousands of experiments to learn
|
|||
|
|
if minds indeed have supernatural powers. Most tests investigated one of the
|
|||
|
|
three main "faculties": telepathy, clairvoyance and precognition, collectively
|
|||
|
|
called extrasensory perseption (ESP) by American psycologist J.B. Rhine.
|
|||
|
|
Dating from the early 1930s, Rhine's tests at Duke University at Durham, North
|
|||
|
|
Carolina, remain the most quoted examples of an expirimental blitzkreig on
|
|||
|
|
problems of parapsychology. Three years of Rhine's telepathy and clairvoyance
|
|||
|
|
testing averaged 7 successes out of every 25 people tested, 2 better than
|
|||
|
|
chance would have produced, an overall result millions to one against the odd.

What is ESP?

============
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
What is ESP?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Extrasensory Perseption or ESP is the abillity acquire information without
|
|||
|
|
using any senses. In the dictionary, ESP is defined as: extra(eks'ra) n. 1.
|
|||
|
|
Something in addition to what is usual./ sensory (sen'so ri) adj. Pertaining
|
|||
|
|
to se nsation or to any one of five senses, as, sensory experience; carrying
|
|||
|
|
nerve impulses from the sense organs to the brain or other nerve center./
|
|||
|
|
perception (per sep'shun) n. 1.Awareness consciosness. 2.Knowledge obtained
|
|||
|
|
through sense s. If you put these defenitions together, it clearly spells ESP.
|
|||
|
|
There are three main groups of ESP. ESP aslo has a sister called PK or
|
|||
|
|
psychokinetics. The three main groups of ESP are telepathy, clairvoyance, and
|
|||
|
|
precognition. Telepathy is the tranference of thoughts without communication
|
|||
|
|
as we know it (hand signals, facial expressions, talking, etc.) Some tests of
|
|||
|
|
ESP are by the sender draws a complex picture and the receiver tries to
|
|||
|
|
reproduce it. Clairvoyance is the perception of objects and events by
|
|||
|
|
paranormal means. Rhine, as disscussed in the earlier chapter, tests of
|
|||
|
|
clairvoyance and telepathy resulted in an average of 7 successes out of every
|
|||
|
|
25,2 better than chance produced, an overall result millions to one agai nst
|
|||
|
|
the odds. Precognition is the knowledge of something before it happens. Now
|
|||
|
|
lets talk about phschokenetics or PK. PK includes poltergeist and the moving
|
|||
|
|
of things through the mind(not limbs or body) If you have seen poltergeist, you
|
|||
|
|
p retty much know what poltergeist is, poltergeist means mischevous spirits,
|
|||
|
|
yet, that is not what it is really all about. Scientists feel that poltergeist
|
|||
|
|
insidences are triggered by the brain of a person, usually a psychologically
|
|||
|
|
disturbed female around the age of puberty. Objects "claimed" to have been
|
|||
|
|
moved by poltergeist are cubbards way to heavy for a child to budge. In 1958
|
|||
|
|
at a Long Island house a group of skeptical paraphsychologists had no
|
|||
|
|
explanation for bottles they saw sliding off the table.

Test For Telepathy
|

|
|
==================
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Test For Telepathy
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
There are many ways to test your telepathy. In the next paragraph, I will be
|
|||
|
|
explaining how to test your telepathy. First of all, choose a cool quiet room,
|
|||
|
|
where you can relax and not be disturbed. This room will be established as
|
|||
|
|
your " ESP Lab". Sit on a comforable chair, or lay down on a bed, and place a
|
|||
|
|
small table or desk beside you. Place a large curtain in the middle of the
|
|||
|
|
table so your partner does not see you. This should be done, because lip
|
|||
|
|
movements, whispering , or any other movements could give away answers. If
|
|||
|
|
this is not feasable, you may choose to be in seperate rooms. Now do anything
|
|||
|
|
else that might make you more comfortable. Do not talk to your partner while
|
|||
|
|
testing and do not let him or her talk to you. Also, do not break your
|
|||
|
|
concentration. The most important thing to do is to be comfortable. There is
|
|||
|
|
an easy exersise that will help you to relax. First of all, close your eyes
|
|||
|
|
and let your mind wander as if you were going to sleep. Now tense every muscle
|
|||
|
|
in your body. Hold this fo r ten seconds, then let yourself go limp. Feel the
|
|||
|
|
muscles in your shoulders and neck relaxing, then your arms, your stomach and
|
|||
|
|
legs, down to your toes. When you are comepletely relaxed, inhale deeply.
|
|||
|
|
Then hold your breath and exhale sl owly. Repeat this breathing exersise for
|
|||
|
|
about a minute. Do not try to rush, and go step by step. Below are ESP
|
|||
|
|
symbols wich are used in professional labratories worldwide.

The only equipment you will need is a pack of ESP cards containing five
|
|||
|
|
duplications of the shapes shown above on index cards. Make sure the ink does
|
|||
|
|
not go through. You should end up with twenty-five cards.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
There are three different tests.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
TEST NUMBER 1
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Shuffle your dech of ESP cards. When you are ready, signal to your partner
|
|||
|
|
and have him or her pick up the top card and concentrate on the symbol. Take
|
|||
|
|
your time before making your Test your Telepathy guess. The time should vary
|
|||
|
|
from one answer to another. Take your time and do not make your answer untill
|
|||
|
|
you "feel right." As you try to preceive the image in your partner's mind, stay
|
|||
|
|
relaxed. Do not try too hard. When the answer comes to you, it will be vaige
|
|||
|
|
and hazy. If you strain it might drive the answer away. After a while, you
|
|||
|
|
will get the hang of it. When you are ready, call out your answer. Your
|
|||
|
|
partner should mark down your answer and the correct symbol on an ESP score
|
|||
|
|
sheet, one is located in the back of the book for an example.When the call is
|
|||
|
|
made, your partner should put the card to the side, face down. Do not get your
|
|||
|
|
emotions get to you, this could break your concentration. Each time you go
|
|||
|
|
through the deck it is called a run. You can probably complete five runs
|
|||
|
|
within thirty minutes. STOP THE MOMENT YOU FEEL BORED OR TIRED. To know how
|
|||
|
|
strong your ESP look at the table below:

|
|
|

|
|
Keep a permanent record of all your score sheets. In this way, you may
|
|||
|
|
compare the sheets to see how rapidly youe ESP is increasing. Once you have
|
|||
|
|
found out wich area of ESP is your strongest, you should retest that area every
|
|||
|
|
once a nd a while.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
TEST NUMBER 2
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
This experiment is called a Direct Image Tranference Test. An American
|
|||
|
|
novelist, Upton Sinclair, used this test to test hids wife, Mary of her phsycic
|
|||
|
|
abillities. Mary would go in a seperate room and sit down and concentrate.
|
|||
|
|
Upton would then open a dictionary at random and go to a page untill he found a
|
|||
|
|
word wich wouldbe drawn simply and clearly. Many times, Mary reproduced the
|
|||
|
|
drawings without seeing them. Sometimes these drawings were handed to her in a
|
|||
|
|
brown paper e nvelope. Only by holding the envelope, she reproduced the
|
|||
|
|
drawings with amazing accuracy. Do the same thing, grade the pictures on a
|
|||
|
|
scale of 1 to 10, with ten being very accurate and 1, no resemblence.

Test for Clairvoyance
|
|||
|
|
=====================
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Test for Clairvoyance
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
First of all, shuffle the ESP cards and put the deck face down in front of
|
|||
|
|
you. Relax. When you are ready put the top card face down on a table, do not
|
|||
|
|
look at it. Try to imagine the card. This is much like testing for telepathy,
|
|||
|
|
only that no human knows the card symbol.Mark your answers on a score sheet.
|
|||
|
|
Go through the deck five times. After 5 runs, count your hits, and look at the
|
|||
|
|
table below.
