" What Is ESP? Explicating the content of ESP & Exploring 7 Types of Extrasensory Perception." Extra sensory literally means “outside the senses” — the 5 senses of sight, touch, hearing, smell, and taste. Extrasensory perception (ESP), perception that occurs independently of the known sensory processes. Usually included in this category of phenomena are: 1. Telepathy, or thought transference between persons; 2. Clairvoyance, or supernormal awareness of objects or events not necessarily known to others; and 3. Precognition, or knowledge of the future. 4. Retrocognition is the opposite of precognition. 5. Psychokinesis or Telekinesis. 6. Mediumship ability to communicate with the dead by channeling their spirits. 7. Remote viewing -an anomalous cognition or second sight. Scientific investigation of these and similar phenomena dates from the late 19th century, with most supporting evidence coming from experiments involving card guessing. Subjects attempt to guess correctly the symbols of cards hidden from their view under controlled conditions; a better-than-chance percentage of correct calls on a statistically significant number of trials is considered to be evidence of ESP. Although many scientists continue to doubt the existence of ESP, people who claim this ability are sometimes used by investigative teams searching for missing persons or things. Whatever this extrasensory perception is, it seems to not be bound to limits of time and space. And, it seems to take on several different shapes and forms — from manipulating physical objects, to knowing the thoughts of others, to seeing into the future. Thus, an attempt has been made in this Booklet to explicate the contents of ESP along with each of these 7 different types of ESP for the enthusiastic Medicos. …Dr. H. K. Saboowala.
