Telepathy is the sure knowledge who is on the other side of the line when our phone rings. Though this may not happen frequently, it occurs often enough to be noticeable.
Telepathy is the sure knowledge of a mother, who knows unfailingly how her children feel when they are not in her presence.
We usually never call these experiences telepathy. And yet we transmit and receive most complex contents in a highly precise way without using material means of communication like speech, gestures, posture, facial expression, the arrangement of objects, etc.
Certainly, - these examples are simple, our ability is not always exact and functions more at the periphery of our consciousness. But this is because we never really took care to seriously train this channel.
Our present, rather naïve idea how telepathy functions, is the biggest obstacle for developing this ability.
Telepathy is not the transfer of single words or symbols, but an extremely fast communication of complex contents that happens on the level of feeling and intuition. The main carrier of this communication are our emotions, not our thoughts.32
32 Our thoughts are far too slow for this task. We notice this when we
try to use words and sentences in the attempt to precisely phrase ideas that shoot through our head.
In a similar way telepathy is not especially well suited for the transfer of single pictures, words or symbols that are not directly connected to the dynamic events of life. And this is also the very reason why most attempts to research telepathy with the usual scientific methods do fail. As long as the general concept of telepathy remains this far out of range of its real functioning, no experiment will ever yield conclusive and productive results.
