ESP, Thought Suggestion, and the 6th sense: What do YOU think?
    #12872011 -

So what do you guys think of all this...

Last night my girlfriend and I were playing around with "thought suggestion" and interpreting these signals..

She'd think of a thought, idea, or activity.. and i'd lay there quietly, trying to tune out my own thoughts..

And it seemed, out of 10 or so tries, that when i'd get to a completely (self) thoughtless state, that id pick up on her thoughts.. And 2 of the times, i got the EXACT word the was thinking, and twice i was spot on with the overall idea or activity..

It seemed too much to just be coincidence.. We've been spending alot of time together lately, and have seemed to have the exact same idea at the exact same time..


I believe there is something more that we don't innately and consciously perceive.. thus far in our (humans) evolution..


So what do you guys think?  Any similar experiences?  Any suggested readings?

pick up three crayons and hold them in front of you. Have her pick a color but not look at it, just think it over and over. Then pick which one she is thinking. Once you get that down add colors. I dont know if its real or what but I used to play with this and have 9/10 accuracy with 7 colors. Just a social experiment for me though-

one time did a test to try and project an image of a picture in my friend's head. All I thought about was a red apple and I consciously tried put the picture in my friend mind. I then asked him to name any fruit in the world and he said a red apple. Now I am still a little skeptical about this whole ESP thing, but I see more and more how people can subconsciously read each other's thoughts.

What really turns my skepticism off though is that this 6th sense is somewhat common in the animal world. Now when it comes to humans and our close ancestors, there HAD to have been some sort of communication before spoken language. So maybe this 6th sense is the remnants of our old way of communicating to each other. Since we now have written and spoken language now, we have no need to read minds anymore... because talking is much simpler. We evolved an easier way to communicate. And like everything in our past, it is all written in our genes. It is very possible that we are tapping into these old ways of communication and expressing emotion.

Look at someones face for example. They don't have to say a single word and you can get a general consensus of their current emotional state.

So I do not believe this is some extra-sensory perception, I believe that it is normal perception that we are re-learning.

Thanks spiritlands... we tried guessing colors and numbers.. definitely a nice little practice!

Also, good point danlennon.. i think you may be right on it being a past skill. I also think it COULD be a communication medium of the future.



To anyone interested.. CRYSTALLINKS.COM is a great website for these sort of metaphysical/scientific interests...


So.. anyone else have any experiences?

First off, Ryan07...I'd suggest keeping that girlfriend of yours around, it isn't often you get a chance to connect with someone at that level, let alone romantically.  ...but that's just me.

I'm definitely a believer when it comes to the metaphysical.  When I was a kid, I would lead my mom to a store I believed my dad to be, walk to an aisle & simply point without looking and that's where he ended up being. 
The woman I dated in my last year in college was very strong energetically-speaking.  A number of times, I'd be studying in the library or eating at the student center and it felt like a light bulb would click on, I looked up and there she was, walking perpendicular to where I was facing. 
I also learned how to astral project (out-of-body experience) when I was 12.  I've had a number of other experiences that have wiped any skepticism from my mind completely of ESP, 6th sense, etc.  So I'm a definite believer that we're all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively.

One author I would suggest is Richard Bach, "Illusions" and "Jonathan Livingston Seagull" are good starters.

That's equally possible that my mom could've been leading me...but removing that bit doesn't discredit the other experiences I pointed to. :wink:

It seems to be a common, well-accepted idea.

Why then, has it never really been proven objectively?

Like a lot of other things...I want to believe.

Thanks thirdeyeparable... i'll definatley check those authors out


And yeah, there are just too many "coincidences" to be such...


Like for example, ghosts and spirits. I used to think this was a buch of mumbo jumbo..crazy talk and from those just tryn to get a rise outa ya... Until i had my first small experience..

It was about 3 years ago.. there were four of us trying the Ouija board' for our first times (In the basement of a 100 year old house mind you). At first we were (seemingly) focused on a central idea, and it seemed as if something was sort of being spelled out. At first my skepticisms were high, thinking it was the other people with me doing the moving.. But as we started to grow tired from not receiving any answers, we started asking our own questions all at the same time.. And the viewing piece started flying around the board, as frantically and as random as our questions, respectively. Strange.. Convincing, we thought.

Still this was not enough to convince me of "something else", of some sort of afterlife or spirits..

But, as i go to put the board away... i noticed something very peculiar.. The were a perfect triangle shape (minus the clear round viewing lens in the middle of the Ouija viewing piece) missing out of the glowing board. Like the entire board was glowing (as it usually does) minus a perfect cut out of the viewing lens. I know glow in the dark boards need to charge, but i dont think 30 minutes of playing with the board in candle light could have done this.. I reexamined the board several times, showed it to my friends, and said "watch, we will go to show someone tomorrow, and it will be back to normal".. And sure as shit IT WAS.

IdK.. take from it what you will... but i was pretty much convinced after that point..

Though i did take from it this, Respect the spirits.. Im going to let them to their thing in peace, and hope in return the let me to the same. I have no interest in continually seeing/experiencing ghosts, it'd get too creepy!

Ha but anyway, my point being that there IS something (lots of things!) that we dont normally perceive that exist..  Third Eye, ESP, Ghosts, Thought Suggestion... etc

I want to learn to tap-in.. 

I want to use our minds and bodies to our full capabilities,

Whether its rekindling a past skill, or a step towards evolution..

I want to know!

I think its highly likely to be real.  We tend to shun anything thats outside the paradigm but I know for a fact from many personal experiences that theres a lot of phenomena like this that is real but beyond the grasp of science at present.

Don't get me wrong, there are also many tricks.  If a mentalist magician can accurately read your mind in a trick then we must also accept that its easy to be fooled.

However, Sometimes these crazy happenings can be way beyond reasonable doubt.

I can't really say what happened in your case but I don't consider it beyond doubt.  The simple explanation for you guys thinking of the same things is that the mind works like a stack in a computer.  Watch Derren Browns advertising trick on youtube.  He makes 2 people think of the exact things he wants by planting suggestions in their minds first.  In your case the suggestions come from the fact you are in the same environment. 

Its still possible it was true telepathy though :smile::thumbup:

humans are not as evolved as we will ever be. We may develop functions that tap into universal elements that we cannot perceive now. I completely agree that there are metaphysical forces that we can't scientifically prove (yet).

Given the fact that you spend so much time together and talk about all kinds of stuff and pretty much know how you think, well, telepathy isn't the most probable thing out there. But it's OK, life can still be fun without magic.
