Do you sometimes have a premonition that something bad will happen which later turns out to be right? Do you sometimes suddenly come to know of how another person is feeling or what he/she is thinking of? If yes, then chances are that you are a psychic, rather than these incidences being just normal coincidences. I once knew of someone who could close her eyes and concentrate for sometime to see her mother working in the kitchen from a thousand miles away, and its just not her, there are many such people in the world who have such psychic powers.
Psychic power refers to the ability of perceiving information from one’s surroundings which are otherwise hidden from the five sensory organs. Thus, a person can be termed a psychic if he/she has the special ability to see, hear, feel or know certain things which other people cannot. Commonly known as extra sensory perception, psychic powers are believed to be born with or developed after a tragic near death experience or a major event in a person’s life which might have turned him towards a spiritual lane. Whatever might be its origin, it has a profound impact on the person’s life being perceived as either a special gift or a curse.
Various types of psychic powers exist in the world. The most common being those of telepathy, clairvoyance and precognition. While telepathy involves perceiving and knowing the thoughts of another person, clairvoyance refers to seeing things which are far away or are otherwise not available to you or anybody else. Precognition on the other hand is the psychic power of predicting future events.
Talking about telepathy, this sixth sense helps the psychic to read another person’s thoughts. Psychics who have very well developed telepathic abilities can also inject their own thoughts into the thought stream of others.
Clairvoyance comes from the word ‘Clear Viewing’, hence it is the psychic power by which the psychic can see persons or things which are hidden or are thousands of miles away. Also known as ‘Remote Viewing’ this power helps in only ‘seeing’ while that of the psychic powers of clairaudience and clairsentience are powers to ‘hear’ or ‘know’ under the same conditions.
Precognition again is the psychic power of predicting about the future. It involves knowing about the future, predicting outcomes of courses of action, informing about events before they happen and dreaming about future incidents. Precognition can be stated to be the most common as well as the most popular of all psychic powers. Its popularity stems from human’s innate desire of knowing about the future and thus astrologers, tarot readers and the like have a high demand.
Other than that of these three psychic powers discussed above, there are various other types of psychic powers. These include the power of taking off from the ground to a higher plane know as levitation, power of influencing things and moving them around with the power of your thought or psychokinesis, power to perceive another person’s energy fields radiating from him/her known as aura reading, power of communicating with outside intelligence known as channeling or the psychic power of leaving your own body to travel to another place, known as astral projection.
There are many times when a psychic thinks of himself/ herself to be cursed, for not being able to live a normal life like that of others. But it can be concluded that psychic powers are special powers that only chosen individuals possess. Hence one should always consider it as a blessing and use it for the benefit of all fellow human beings.
