INTRODUCTION

PARAPSYCHOLOGY :-

Parapsychology is an experimental and quantitative

study of paranormal phenomena, including telepathy,

precognition, clairvoyance, psychokinesis,

reincarnation and near-death experiences. A brief

explanation of each follows.

Telepathy: Transfer of information on thoughts or

feelings between individuals by means other than the

five classical senses.

Clairvoyance: The ability to ascertain information

about objects or events at remote locations without

the use of the normal senses.

Precognition: Perception of information about future

places or events before they occur.

Reincarnation: The rebirth of a soul or other non-

physical aspect of human consciousness in a new

physical body after death.

EXTRA-SENSORY PERCEPTIONS

By reprogramming your subconscious mind, it has

been scientifically proved that you will start to

experience things you never believed possible before!

Extrasensory perception (ESP) involves reception of

information not gained through the recognized

physical senses but sensed with the mind. ESP is also

sometimes casually referred to as a sixth sense, gutinstinct or hunch. The term implies acquisition of

information by means external to the basic limiting

assumptions of science, such as that organisms can

only receive information from the past to the

present.

Parapsychologists generally regard such tests as the

ganzfeld experiment as providing compelling evidence

for the existence of ESP. The scientific community

rejects ESP due to the absence of an evidence base,

the lack of a theory which would explain ESP, and the

lack of experimental techniques which can providereliably positive results.

TELEPATHY

The ability to communicate directly through mind-to-

mind contact and to perceive information directly

from another's mind, without resorting to the use of

the five known senses.

It is often categorized similarly to precognition and

clairvoyance. Various experiments have been used to

test for telepathic abilities. Among the most wellknown are the use of Zener cards and the Ganzfeld

experiment

In more recent times, neuroimaging has allowed

researchers to actually perform early forms of mind

reading.Zener cards:

Zener cards are cards marked with five distinctive

symbols. When using them, one individual is

designated the "sender" and another the "receiver".

The sender must select a random card and visualizethe symbol on it, while the receiver must attempt to

determine that symbol using Psi


7/21

Ganzfeld experiment :

When using the Ganzfeld experiment to test for

telepathy, one individual is designated the receiverand is placed inside a controlled environment where

they are deprived of sensory input, and another is

designated the sender and is placed in a separate

location. The receiver is then required to receive

information from the sender. The exact nature of

the information may vary between experiments.

TYPES OF TELEPATHY :

Latent Telepathy : It is described as the transfer

of information, through Psi, with an observable time-

lag between transmission and receipt.

Intuitive Telepathy : It is described as being the

transfer of information, through Psi, about the past,

future or present state of an individual's mind to

another individual.

Superconscious Telepathy: It involves tapping into

the superconscious to access the collective wisdom

of the human species for knowledge.

CLAIRVOYANCE

The ability to ascertain information about people,

objects or events at remote locations without the

use of the normal senses. A person said to have theability of clairvoyance is referred to as a clairvoyant.

It is very different from telepathy in that the

information is said to be gained directly from an

external physical source, rather than beingtransferred from the mind of one individual to

another.

There is also a measured level of belief from

amongst the general public, within a portion of the

US population who believe in clairvoyance.Year Belief

1990 26%

2000 32%

2005 49%

Clairsentience (feeling/touching):

In the field of parapsychology, clairsentience is a

form of extra-sensory perception wherein a personacquires psychic knowledge primarily by feeling.

Generally the term refers to a person who can feel

the vibration of other people. There are many

different degrees of clairsentience ranging from the

perception of diseases of other people to the

thoughts or emotions of other people.

Clairaudience (hearing/listening):

Clairaudience is a form of extra-sensory perception

wherein a person acquires information by paranormal

auditory means. But it may also refer to actual

perception of sounds such as voices, tones, or noises

which are not apparent to other humans or to

recording equipment. For instance, a clairaudient

person might claim to hear the voices or thoughts of

the spirits of persons who are deceased.


10/21

Clairalience (smelling):

Also known as clairescence, it is a form of extra-

sensory perception wherein a person accessespsychic knowledge through the physical sense of

smell.

Claircognizance (knowing):

Claircognizance is a form of extra-sensoryperception wherein a person acquires psychic

knowledge primarily by means of intrinsic knowledge.

It is the ability to know something without a physical

explanation why you know it, like the concept of

mediums.

Clairgustance (tasting):

Clairgustance is defined as a form of extra-sensory

perception that allegedly allows one to taste a

substance without putting anything in one's mouth.

KIRLIAN PHOTOGRAPHY

Kirlian photography refers to a form of photogram

made with voltage. If an object on a photographicplate is connected to a source of voltage an image is

produced on the photographic plate. The Kirliantechnique is contact photography, in which the

subject is in direct contact with a film placed upon acharged metal plate.

The kirlian image might be compared with the human

aura. An experiment in evidence of energy fields

generated by living entities involves taking Kirlian

contact photographs of a picked leaf at set periods,its gradual withering corresponding with a decline in

the strength of the aura. In some experiments, if a

section of a leaf was torn away after the first

photograph, a faint image of the missing section

would remain when a second photograph was taken.

In addition to living material, inanimate objects such

as coins will also produce images on the film in a

Kirlian photograph setup.


12/21

One of the physical explanations is that the images

produced are those caused by a voltage coronaeffect, similar to those seen from other high voltage

sources such as the Van de Graaff generator or

Tesla coil thus resulting in various colors depending

on the local intensity of the discharge.

Do our bodies emit energy fields which vary

depending on our state of health? Is it possible to

photograph these emissions and to use these photos

as a diagnostic tool? Kirlian photography has raised,

and begun to answer, these two questions and is

being used by psychologists in determining the most

useful course of treatment.With modern Kirlian cameras, a high voltage, low amp

electric field is applied to a glass photographic plate.

When a person places their finger on the plate, the

combination of the electricity and the persons

energy creates a gas ionisation process which, when

photographed, appears as an aura around the finger

broken or unbroken depending on the flow of energy

in the body. The aura of different fingers reveals

information about different organs in the body.


13/21

It is good to use the Kirlian photography to see how

accurate the intuition is. For example, if someone isweak in the kidney area, then the Kirlian photography

can be used to verify whether that is actually the

case and then I can concentrate on that area during

the treatment.

"Its also good to then use the Kirlian photography

again afterwards and just check to see how well the

therapy has worked, and get a comparison of before

and after in that area."

WHAT IS INTERACTIVE AURA PHOTOGRAPHY ?

Auraphotography, using the AuraCam 6000 and the

biofeedback hand sensor, measures your energetic

and auric qualities and exposes that on a single

Polaroid photograph.

It shows your aura for your current feelings and

emotions, and does not represent subsequent

changes.


14/21

Interactive Auraphotography, on the other hand,

measures and continues to measure this data in realtime. This information is then displayed on a

computer or television screen, allowing us to see

changes in your emotional state live as it happens. As

the video-feed is being shown, the person and their

personal aura colors may come to considerably large

changes and can also show the instability of onesaura, especially if the emotional state of that person

is not in balance. Generally the aura picture change

with every emotional or mental change of the user;

this enables us to see the kinds of effects that

therapy and adjustments of personal vibrations can

have upon ourselves.

Colour Interpretation In Aura Photography:

Colours as well as shapes and colour combinations play

an eminent role in aura interpretation.

The following descriptions of the aura colours cangive you a general insight into interpretation of

auras.


15/21

Red: Desire, power, the urge to win, action, love of

sports, struggle, competition, leadership, strength,

courage, passion, eroticism, practicality, desire for

possessions, sense of adventure, the survival instinct.

A majority of young children and teenagers especially

boys, have bright red auras.

Orange: Creativity, the emotions, confidence,

sociability, intuition or gut feeling. The ability to

reach out and extend one's self towards others.Entrepreneurs and people who deal with the public

have orange auras.

Yellow: sunny and enthusiastic, cheerful, bright,

great sense of humor and fun, optimism,

intellectuality, openness to new ideas, happiness.Release of burdens, problems and restrictions. Talent

for organization. Hope and expectation, inspiration.

People with yellow auras encourage and support

others by naturally being themselves; they radiate

like the sun and they also may have a great ability to

analyze complex concepts.


16/21

Green: Perseverance, firmness, patience, sense of

responsibility and service, self assertiveness, high

ideals and aspirations, dedication, puts high value on

work and career. Ambitious desire for respectability

and personal attainment, deeply focussed and

adaptable. Green is also the color of growth and of

dedicated parents, social workers, counselors,

psychologists, and other persons focusing on creating

positive change in the world.

Blue: Depth of feeling, devotion, loyalty, trust, desire

to communicate. Puts great importance on personal

relationships. Empathic. May be a dreamer or have

artistic ability. Blue may be emotionally sensitive,intuitive, inwardly focused, may enjoy solitude, non-

competitive activities, be receptive and desire unity,

peace, love and affection in relationships with others.

They need a calm and tranquil environment. You'll

find many blue artists, poets, writers, musicians,

philosophers, serious students, spiritual seekers, andpeople looking for truth, justice and beauty in

everything.


17/21

Violet or Purple: Magical, original, often has psychic

abilities, unusual charisma and charm, the uncommonability to make their dreams come true, or manifest

their desires in the material world, wish to charm and

delight others and can easily connect with higher

planes of consciousness. People who have purple auras

appreciate tenderness and kindness in others. Not

especially practical, they tend to prefer to live in adream world of their own creation. You'll find many

"violet or purple" entertainers, movie stars, free

thinkers, visionaries, revolutionaries, and otherwise

singular and magnetic individuals

White: Spiritually motivated, the ability to be open

and receptive to the divine, or spiritual world.

Probably unconcerned with worldly matters or

ambition. Inner illumination, cosmic wisdom

characterise the white energy. Young children,

energy workers, and people who meditate intensely

often will show bright white in their auras. Generally,

white does not often appear in the auras of adults.


18/21

PRECOGNITION

Precognition, also called future sight, is a type of

extrasensory perception that would involve the

acquisition or effect of future information that

cannot be deduced from presently available and

normally acquired sense-based information or laws of

physics and/or nature.


19/21

PSYCHOKINESIS

The ability to affect objects, events, or people

without using the usual intervention by the muscular

system. Examples of psychokinesis (PK) could include

distorting or moving an object and influencing the

output of a random number generator. It refer to

the direct influence of mind on a physical system

that cannot be entirely accounted for by themediation of any known physical energy (i.e. moving

objects with the mind).

Measurement and observation :

Parapsychology researchers describe two basic typesof measurable and observable psychokinetic effects

in experimental laboratory research and in case

reports occurring outside of the laboratory. Micro-

PK is a very small effect, such as the manipulation of

molecules, atoms,subatomic particles etc., that can

only be observed with scientific equipment. Macro-

PK is a large-scale effect that can be seen with the

unaided eye.


20/21

Scientific View:

If PK were to exist as claimed by some

experimenters, it would violate some well-establishedlaws of physics, including the inverse square law, the

second law of thermodynamics and the conservation

of momentum. Hence scientists have demanded a high

standard of evidence for PK, in line with Marcello

Truzzi's dictum "Extraordinary claims require

extraordinary proof". When apparent PK can beproduced in ordinary waysby trickery, special

effects or by poor experimental designscientists

accept that explanation as more parsimonious than to

accept that the laws of physics should be rewritten.
