When you try to understand telepathy it all starts when one person transfers their thoughts and emotions to another person. The definition commonly known is that telepathy is a term for the feelings over a distance.
When we use our minds to convey what we are thinking without speaking is like having another step on a ladder only you can use.
It is known that most animals use some form of telepathy in communicating within their herds or with other herds of the same species. This can be done over many leagues of area and is even thought that many sea mammals communicate just this way over many depths of sea.
Groups of primitive cultures have been thought to have telepathic abilities. Some of the more aboriginal tribes of today are said to still be engaging in some sort of telepathy.
The truth of the matter is that telepathy isn't some esoteric subject. If we would believe that it's just as reputable as learning a new language, people would accept it much easier. Seriously, we always recognize those who have issues with speech, so why is it so difficult to acknowledge those individuals who possess extraordinary powers. Shouldn't we consider the people who can't do it as just having defectiveness?
It may just be that it has been bred out of us or that we lost the need for it due to other forms of communication.
Telepathy has often been called the 6th sense. You may have also heard it called the third eye. While these are not nearly the same thing, they are both linked to the ability of being telepathic.
Have you ever had a gut feeling come over you? Did it end up happening? Telepathy works in many different forms, and often times we miss it for a simple rush or just negative thinking. The problem is when it happens you find yourself wondering why you didn't pay attention to your thoughts. Then again, there are positive times like a friend you haven't heard from in a long time calls you within the same week you thought about them. It's crazy to think about, but things like this happen all the time, yet we overlook them as mere coincidences, even though a mother/child power is accepted.
While there is no real answer as to why humans lost touch with telepathic powers, but it's usually because we just stopped believing, but why?
It is felt that with the advent of Christianity and Muslim religions, humans began to lose their sense of telepathy or sixth sense. This is because these religions have claimed that this gift or sense was a vice of the darker powers of the world and not a positive and natural ability. This type of censorship has effectively helped to eradicate the sixth sense from existence and we no longer trust our telepathic ability.
The debate over this subject continues to surface every now and again, but the truth of the matter is that religions have a lot of power over our civilization. We are taught that our own natural abilities should be pushed aside for the Messiah, the Savior, or the Prophet (depending on your religion).
This really begs the question 'why are the major religions so against the concept of telepathy?'
The answer is likely to lie in the power hunger of so many religious 'leaders' and authorities who don't want their own alleged divine powers challenged by telepaths. Of course, not every religious leader is like this, but too many are and have been throughout history.
While this is a major problem, there are many other issues as well. One of the biggest has to do with the assurance that comes from science.
Science is about discovery so perhaps one day soon there will be real tests that can be conducted to prove or disprove the theory that telepathy does exist. Science has not yet come up with any to do this, nor is it believed that telepathy exists so they do not bother even trying to test for it.
It is curious to find that scientists do have strong beliefs toward sensations of human emotion and they agree that there is some truth to instinctual behavior. Perhaps this is because they can experience these things themselves in that it is more intrinsic in them. Whereas with telepathy, because of the fading of the sense holds no strong bond in them. Therefore, because the scientists themselves do not feel telepathic, then it must not exist.
Maybe it's just jealousy on their part. After all, most individuals hate it when something can't be explained, yet someone else can do it. When a phenomenon like telepathy comes along, it's much easier to tell us it's an instinctive response as opposed to an extraordinary power of the mind.
Have the gods chosen that we do not need telepathy any more or have just lost the ability over time? It is hard to say, but it is known that humanity, at one time, was telepathic.
