Mind reading telekinesis?

Question

when i was young and my brother was in the car, i would think of something and he would gues what i was thinking. It went on for about 15 times and everytime it was correct. Another time (when we were still young) my cousin said that my brother couldn't do telekenisis and then my brother said fall and my cousing fell. They were about 20 ft away and now my brother can;t do any of that stuff

does anyone know what this is all about?

Answer 1

It is possible that your brother and you would guess one another's thoughts correctly due to similar upbringing, exposure, etc. However, it is also possible that you were experiencing telepathy (mind to mind() which is a from of ESP. Unfortunately no true test for telepathy exist.

In order to test telepathy you have to correctly guess or know what the other person is thinking but how do you confirm it? When you write it down you have opened up the possibility of acquiring the information (still via ESP) from the written record and not the persons mind.

For example if you correctly guessed one out of work magicians thoughts that would cost him a million dollars do you think he would confirm your correct answer?

Regarding the falling down experience that could be simple suggestion (like mild hypnosis) rather than psychokinesis (what telekinesis is now called in the scientific research literature).

As for his lost abilities he may no longer believe that such things are possible and this would naturally inhibit his ability. This effect is called the sheep/goat effect where those that believe ESP is possible score higher on test for the ability than do non believers.

Childhood is filled with a combination of fantasy and an inability to understand the world.

Answer 3

Telepathy and Telekinesis are 2 different things (even though they come from the mind) telepathy is reading other people thoughts (but to me is more like hearing, not reading, you can't read people thoughts but hear them) by being a telepath, you can also command other people to do things.

Telekinesis is moving objects with the power of your mind.

What you just described is more telepathy than anything else. If you are very close to some one, telepathy can be developed because of the closeness you guys have.

If anybody tells you that the reason why you can guess what your brother is thinking is because your are very close, you tell them that that is telepathy.

When you are thinking about some one that you haven't heard from in a while and that person calls you right there or see that person on the streets while thinking about that person. All that are small expression of telepathy.

Answer 4

The part that psi said about writing it down..I did that. I had proof..but the other person didn't or wouldn't read it...or thought i was a witch or something. So..if you do that.. make sure the other person will cooperate with  you.

Maybe as your brother grew older...so many new things came into his life that he didn't have room left or time left for the paranormal things that were happening when he was younger.

Answer 5

Are you gullible or what?  Can't you TELL they're playing a joke on you?  I used to impress my brother by throwing "magic" pine needles in the fire, making it crackle!

Answer 6

Power of suggestion.  And kids are pretty predictable, especially to each other and their parents.  It's just a coincidence.  Sure, if you could do it now, this guy would give you a million bucks.  http://www.randi.org  But you said you can't.
