About Parapsychology

Extrasensory phenomena or extrasensory perception (ESP) which appear due to the manifestation of the spiritual being within a body are studied under the title “parapsychology”. This term adapted by Dr. J.B. Rhine in 1920’s from the term “parapsychique” which was used by French psychologist Emil Boirac as meaning “beyond psychology” and approved by the parapsychical researchers who attended to the International Psychical Research Conference which was held in 1953, at Utrecht, Holland.

Our spiritual abilities which are studied within the field of parapsychology appear as either mental experiences or physical effects. By extrasensory perception (ESP), a person’s displaying sensibility towards something in his surroundings without using one of his five senses is meant. The type of parapsychological phenomena which causes physical effects is studied under the title of psychokinesis (PK). Some of the phenomena studied by parapsychology are telephathy (perception of someone else’s mental state or thoughts); clairvoyance (remote perception of an object or an event through ESP); clairauditing (hearing sounds without the material means); precognition (acquirement of knowledge about an event before it happens); telekinesis (action over matter without any material means); poltergeist, spontaneous human combustion, afterlife; communication with discarnated beings (spiritual communiques); reincarnation, out of body experiences (astral projection); near death experiences, spiritual healing and spiritual surgery, altered states of consciousness, Kirlian photography ans so on.
