Have you ever tried telepathy like this with a group?

Question

If so...what were your results? For example...has this ever happened in a church group or prayer group you were a part of? (someplace where people pray or meditate on the same thing)

Short video..you can jump over to 2 min. and see the results quicker.

Answer 1

No and either have any of the people in the video. However, I have been in the audience( just like the people in the video) during some very interesting magic performances (just like in the video).

If this typical magician didn't claim extraordinary reasons (I have a photographic memory) to explain his tricks (and he admits he gives dishonest explanations) then his more than typical performance of psychic magic tricks might actually be entertaining.

For the actual scientific study of such phenomena see the links below.

Answer 2

i've never had any group experience but from a personal perspective i can tell you that it works. i used to call my kids name in my mind and they'd jump up as if i had yelled at them and say "what". i could also suggest thing to my wife, like stoping for a drink and she would respond like she had just come up with the idea on her own. after some time, she got to where she could sometimes tell when i was trying to plant something in her mind. try it with people close to you.

Answer 3

In general unless the group has a single purpose the group 'mind' that develops is usually to conflicted to be of any use.

Only groups that are focused are able to have any effect and in order to maintain that focus they try to stay anonymous.
