Some incidents just do not leave your memory. This happened years ago, while I was away for some months. One day (it was a Monday) I got a feeling that an elderly Babaji, whom I used to visit at regular intervals in my early life, was not well. He had been very hale and hearty - used to get up early in the morning and finish the daily chores well before the others would even get up. There was an unusual restlessness in me, a feeling of emotional discomfort mixed with a sense of insecurity. After a couple of days I received news that Babaji was no more; he had succumbed to a snake bite. When I enquired about the date and time of his demise I was shocked to learn that it happened on the same day and at the same time when I was undergoing great inner turbulence on account of Babaji.

And
many of us have experienced that when we are missing someone and are
thinking of calling them, we receive a a call from the same person.
These mysterious mental connections have been called Telepathy; a term
that was coined in 1882 by the scholar Frederic Myers. Telepathy is
the transmission of information from one person to another without using
any of our known sensory channels or physical interaction. It is the
ability of one mind to impress or to be impressed by another mind, the
ability to synchronize the informational processes within one’s mind
with those of another individual, other than through the recognized
channels of sense – through thought-transference, mind-reading or mental
suggestion. This manifests as a form of direct mind-to-mind
communication without the use of ordinary vocal and auditory mechanisms -
without any medium of transmission involving energy and matter.
Generally Telepathy supposes that, in some cases, the usual signs by
which ideas are manifested - speech, writing, gestures, muscular
contraction and facial expression - are dispensed with, and that minds
are able to communicate through some medium that is distinct from the
ordinary medium of sense-perception. Telepathy has appeared in various
forms among various races, over time.
In
the popular Harry Potter series, Telepathy is a magical skill known as
‘legilimency’. Telepathy, within the Star Trek universe, worked via the
psionic field; this field is the medium through which unspoken thoughts
and feelings are communicated through space. Some humanoids can tap into
this field through a kind of sense organ (the para-cortex) located in
the brain. In the same manner that human eyes can sense portions of
the electromagnetic field, professional Telepaths can sense portions of
the psionic field. Humans are also equipped with Extra-Sensory Perception (commonly abbreviated ESP),
which enables them to perform activities that require the use of
sensing capabilities beyond the five basic senses of sight, hearing,
smell, taste and touch.
Each
kind of system - from crystals to birds to societies - is shaped not by
universal laws that embrace and direct it, but by a unique morphic
field containing a collective pooled memory. So organisms not only share
genetic material with others of their species, but are also shaped by a
field specific to that species. We need to have extraordinary
insight and also the synthesized background of science and spirituality,
to understand the morphic resonance that influences organisms in the
present through direct connections across time and space. Scientists
have explored the intricacies of the mind and discovered that our
perceptive abilities are stronger than many of us could have imagined.
Most of us have perceived the sensation that tells us when we are the
object of someone’s attention; the same is true about premonitions.
Telepathic situations may be happening all the time, but we sometimes
lack the awareness to recognize them.
Many
pet owners know that there is a strong connection between humans and
animals, which lies beyond present day scientific understanding. My
niece is very fond of her pet, Jojo. She ‘knows’ when Jojo wants to go
outside. One day Jojo cam home with a severely lacerated leg. My niece
wanted to know how the dog had sustained the injured. Surprisingly, Jojo
led her to the spot, where my niece found barbed wire wrapped around
the fence in the park opposite their home. Telepathy is the universal
language of the animal kingdom. Animals can amazingly communicate non-verbally.
Telepathic communication assumes that animals are sentient beings, with
their own purposes, desires, choices and manner of looking at the
world.
Humans are actually born with telepathic ability, but tend to suppress or forget it when they learn the spoken language.
The human mind is a simply evolved physical scaffold for an entity of
electrical and quantum impulses. Gradually, the mind develops abilities
to receive as well as influence quantum fluctuations from other minds. The brain is a telepathic organ; its connections to other brains are not physical, but psychic.
The very definition of a psychic medium is the localized inertial frame
of reference that is affected by the mind. Telepathy between members of
the same family or close friends is common, as they learn to adjust to
each other’s frequencies. There always seems to be one member of every family, usually a woman, who has psychic or telepathic abilities.
When we are in panic mode, the adrenaline flows and Telepathy kicks in
for those who tune in to help us. A woman could receive messages even
from her unborn child - often through dreams, but also telepathically.
People often sense the death of a family member. Premonitions make the
most dramatic stories, heighten tensions and result in the nick-of-time
rescues. Twins are often telepathic with each other, creating these
abilities when they are infants. They generally are at the same
frequency at the same time; very often they feel hungry at the same
time, have the same desire at the same time and even fall sick at the
same time. Telepathy between twins can remain for a life-time. The same
way, those in love are finer-tuned telepathically, emitting high
frequency signals to each other. Scientists are working on ways to help us hear the thoughts of other people, by linking sounds to patterns of brain activity.
This discovery is a major step towards being able to hear the thoughts
of people who cannot speak; it would be possible to send and receive
thought impressions from the mind of one person to another.
Deceased
souls sometimes ‘send’ messages to us through our dreams. In our dreams
we move faster than the speed of light; this is similar to meditation,
time travel and remote viewing. We can see and meet the spirits and can
share information. Buddha’s enlightenment was a visionary experience. He
was gifted with transformative vision, a developed sense of Telepathy
that became a part and parcel of his practice. Through Enlightenment he
developed a larger vision. The Buddha often talked with gods,
visited heavens and preached to assemblies, which included celestials as
well as humans. These details, given by his biographers, are an
indication of the quality of his lived experience and his
fully-developed sense of Telepathy. The simple kindness of Sujata
touched him deeply and he was in regular communication with her even
when she was in heaven, because she exemplified compassion; her
unaffected kindness in providing him fruits and milk precipitated his
Enlightenment.
