The inner depth of consciousness in human mind is a repository of divine talents that could be experienced, aroused, and used by dedicated endeavors…
Clairvoyance, telepathy, extrasensory perceptions, and precognition are (latent) attainments of the inner mind. At times some of these supernormal faculties are suddenly activated in some people. This is attributed to their intrinsic tendencies and spiritual endeavors of the earlier lives, or, the accidental stimulation of some extrasensory centers in their brain.
It happened a couple of decades ago. Julia Vorob’yeva of Russia received a severe shock from the crane, which she was driving. She fainted in the accident and could not gain consciousness for several days. Her heart also stopped beating… She was thought to be dead. However, during the fist phase of postmortem the doctors noticed some activity in her brain. She could gain consciousness and normal health after several months of intensive care.
Interestingly, the strong electrical shock had activated some extrasensory functions in her brain.
She was now able to see much deeper and sharper than the normal humans. She could watch the inner structure of the body by naked eyes so clearly, as though an X-ray device was fitted in her retina. She was able to see the hidden sources of water and minerals, etc beneath the earth’s surface. Now she could also visualize the spectrum of light beyond the ultraviolet rays. Premonition of natural calamities that were likely to occur in near future was another addition to her unusual potentials. Julia’s brain had become a star attraction for scientific curiosity and research.
Renowned parapsychologist William Mochas provides evidential discussion and examples in his book entitled “What Makes Life Significant” to illustrate supernatural powers of human mind. He argues that a limitless treasure of arcane powers exists in our inner self. Every one can arouse this hidden source.
Dr. Wilder Penfield of Canada has devised special kinds of electrodes to activate the layers of latent memory in human brain. He has successfully experimented in making the subjects review the past (including the events of the earlier lives) like a video display. He believes that the human mind is capable of experiencing the past and the future as naturally as the present. He has presented significant number of evidential examples in support of the “Cognizance beyond Time” of the human mind.
Dr. Penfield has reported about several subjects who were equipped with exceptional powers of clairvoyance and precognition. For instance, he mentions of a woman named Niyechen who was able to tell the present, past and future of
41 even a stranger just by touching his body or any of his belongings. Several doctors and scientists of high repute had verified his unique talent. One Ms.
Edam was able to describe the appearance of far distant objects so clearly as though these were kept right in front. A Lithuanian boy was blessed of exceptional talents in linguistics. He used to pronounce difficult words with liaisons or speak any sentence – while conversing with the experts – of any language ancient or modern, so aptly as if he was himself a scholar of these languages and he knew beforehand what the other person was going to say next.
His perfection in this art was tested in several languages including Latin, French, English, Greek and Hebrew, which he had never even heard.
Neila Jones of South London is popularly known as “Alien Spy”. She had no connection with the intelligence department or police as such. But many of the mysterious cases that the intelligence bureau of Scotland Yard was not able to figure out are resolved with the help of her ‘sixth sense’. Sitting at home, she is able to focus her mind at the specific case and get the ‘missing links’ and secret information by her clairvoyance. She has been helping the Police Department since past fifteen years or so. At times, she also gets precognition of criminal conspiracies and warns the police about it. “The Encyclopedia of the Occult”
describes the truly rare example of Antennae Messier who was able to have cognizance of the hidden or invisible things by using extrasensory ‘sensors’ of his stomach.
Noted Russian Psychologist and eminent researcher Prof. Constantine Platonov concludes in his research findings that ––”the power of consciousness endowed in humans is limitless and ever expanding. It exists in every component of the body at the cellular, molecular, and subtler levels. The vital power that is active in the brain can also be stimulated and employed at any of the subliminal sensors spread across the human body. If conditioned, activated and trained carefully, any other organ could also serve the purpose of specific sense organs, such as eyes. Skin alone could gather and process all the information that the five sense organs could do collectively. It is the elevated level of specific stream of inner consciousness that enables extrasensory perceptions”.
Dr. Platonov has also cited several live examples in this context that were examined and confirmed by scientific experts. One such report describes the case of 24 years old Rosa Kuleshov, who can read the entire newspaper or an article with her eyes closed and covered by dark cloth. She just needs to touch the printed letters by the third and the fourth fingers of her hand. Her reading through the fingers is as clear and fluent as that of her normal reading with open eyes. The skin pores of Rosa’s fingertips are so sensitive that these can sense the pattern of printed letters as perfectly and rapidly as the vision of her eyes.
42 The eleven years old daughter of Mrs. Olga Bizenjanova of Kharkove, Russia is also popular because of similar extrasensory talent. With her eyes closed, tied by a black strip, this girl is able to distinguish between black and white movers on the chessboard, just by a touch. Classification of other objects with respect to colors is also performed equally efficiently by her ‘vision’ through tactility. She can read the books of her standard by mere touch even when her eyes are closed.
Interestingly, she has also been successful in training her arms, shoulders, legs, stomach and back for some kinds of visual pattern recognition. Not only that, this wonder kid can also sense the visible proportions of an object even if it is kept up to 10 centimeters away from direct contact of her skin. Several laboratories have experimented on her in the attempts to open up newer lines of research on mental faculties.
Annette Frelon of France had also posed significant challenge before the scientists. This teenager had attained the extrasensory power like the yogis. She used to be silent most of the time. If at all she would utter anything, it would be short, precise and meaningful piece of knowledge. Whenever asked an important or serious question, she would go into meditation. The reply or answers would then appear as written in big red letters on her arms, shoulders, and legs… These clearly visible inscriptions used to disappear after some time without leaving any mark on her body.
The sensitive cells of the skin are said to perform the tasks of ‘vision’ and
‘expression’ to some extent in every living being. However, this power is negligible as compared to the extraordinary potentials and does not provide scientific explanation to the supernatural experiences of the above kind.
The supernormal examples further affirm the immense potentials of human body and mind. We mostly remain ignorant of these transcendental faculties.
Whenever we come across with some expression of the arousal of extrasensory talents, we attribute these to miracles, bequest of nature, rare coincidences or to yet unknown hormonal effects. Only few of us realize that these astonishing powers emerge from within. The seed of divine potentials is hidden in our inner mind. We need to cultivate the environment for its sprouting and growth by sincere endeavors of the refinement and righteous orientation of the mental powers and tendencies.
