Telepathy (from Ancient Greek τῆλε (têle) ‘distant’, and πάθος/-πάθεια (páthos/-pátheia) ‘feeling, perception, passion, affliction, experience’) is the purported vicarious transmission of information from one person’s mind to another’s without using any known human sensory channels or physical interaction.

A few weird things have happened this week. My judgement has been excellent (when to delete inappropriate Whatsapps etc), I have been able to predict to the second, when the microwave is due to ping and the bell at the end of my meditation session. These may not have been spooky in themselves but…

This morning, I got in touch with a very old friend, communicating that I had produced a video of my meditation for a recent festival (he had previously taken an interest). I was gutted when he told me that the last 2 years had been ‘horrific’ for him and his family, and he hadn’t spoken to anyone about it. He told me that he was due to go to doctors today to finally get help. He said that “it must be from some God that you have reached out!! Not that I believe in that!!!”

Yesterday, my Mum came over and we had a difficult conversation which ended up with us sitting quietly and her being visibly emotional. I’m sure we now think similarly about the issue in question and as this morning, there was no issue.

I have been meditating a lot this week, 4 times on Wednesday, so could this be the cause?!

The next day…

A new day, but the very same weirdness continues! I’m on a retreat day with Singhasri and Balajit. There was a ‘Earthy’ meditation this morning during which the retreat leader spoke a poem that I had been considering for the past week. 

I even said the very same poem as in my Sangha Day meditation. I lead a gratitude meditation at that time, the very same that we started with is today!

Again, surely this cannot fall under the caption of coincidence? I remain intrigued!
