I was wondering who here actualy is psychic apart from me, i have known even before my 11th birthday that i had more then the standard 6 senses that all other humans have (sight, touch, taste, smell, hearing and ballence) so far after years of training these i have been able to define and catagorise some of them, telepathy, empathy, foresight, airokeneses and just recently Quantum entanglement. any 1 else out there have such gifts or ever had a profound psychic experecne? happy.gif

Hi Gaias_Child,

What is airokeneses? It's not something I've ever heard of before. smile.gif

And can I ask why you consider balance to be a sense? I don't think we get any information through balance, or am I missing something? smile.gif

Also, just to let you know, text-speak (any1) isn't allowed on UKP smile.gif

Likewise - I would love to be able to claim balance as a sense (if nothing else just to baffle my tai chi instructor tongue.gif ) but as far as I'm aware it is simply a physical reaction to the movement of the fluids in your inner ear...

Me either - can't wait to find out though... huh.gif

To answer your question, GC, I don't tend to use the word psychic due to the sheer quantity of inane associations it has gathered over the years (ooh, can you tell what I'm thinking then? for instance rolleyes.gif ). But I have experienced clairaudience and empathy, and I practice psychometry. I read tarot, dowse, scry, and have had a fair number of experiences of mysterious links with friends and relatives - not sure that I'd call that clairvoyance though...

I tend to subscribe to that cliche'd belief that all of us are 'psychic' to some extent (look at the sheer range of extrasensory skills which children tend to exhibit before they become aware of convention for instance) - we just need a little help awakening it at times smile.gif
Gaias_Child
of course ballence is a sense, without if you wouldn't be able to stand up, your sense of ballence eminates from your inner ear and is your abilaty to sense gravity. it's the reason that when you hang upside down in the dark you know your upside down. Airokenisis is the abilaty to move the air with your mind, is an elermental gift happy.gif

What's Quantum entanglement, please?
weatherwitch
As someone who has balance problems, it's my sense of balance that's the problem not my balance as a sense laugh.gif

Do you mean like inner balance being of the mind rather than physical balance? o_headscratch.gif

I'm with the others too, what are airokeneses and just recently Quantum entanglement?

I can be a little pychsic but (even if I can't spell it o_lol.gif ) but have not heard of these concepts smile.gif

What a complete load of rot, I have never heard anyone state such a ridiculous idea before. Balance is achieved by fluid moving around the simicirclar canals you ears, the brain senses where the fluid is by by nerve receptors in the wall of the canals or in other words by touch.

balance isn't a sense...although proprioception (that is, our sense of ourself, our body - see "the man who mistook his wife for a hat", by oliver sacks) is considered by some to be one.
Amethystine
Soooo... I looked up Quantum Entaglement on Google, and I got this explanation.

Quantum Entanglement

I've tried, I've really tried... but how this fits into a spiritual path is beyond me.
Someone please enlighten me?

I looked up aerokinesis too, and that's much simpler. I'ts just being able to control the wind with your will.
Related, using other elements are hydrokinesis (water), pyrokinesis (fire) and electrokinesis (electricity).

Heh, isnt it weird how one amazing concept seems so natural and another seems so difficult? smile.gif
Gaias_Child
well thatnks alot guys. i started this thread to see the kinda psychic experecnes ppl have, not you you could rip my personalaty, and infact my existance to shreads. I am thuroly upset by what you have done here.
Blackie_Fen
Gaia's Child - no-one has made a personal attack on you, much less ripped your existence to shreds. A few people have asked a couple of perfectly reasonable questions based on your original post, thats all. If someone doesn't understand what you've written, or is unsure about a concept which you have referred to, they'll ask you to explain it. Simple as that.
Amethystine
Gaia's Child, I don't see how asking for further explanations of your abilities, or questioning your reasoning on something can be construed as ripping your personality apart.

You were the one who stated that we have six senses, and you were the one who mentioned both aerokinesis and Quantum Entanglement.

If you were talking to someone, wouldnt you stop them and say "whoa, hold on a mo, what are you talking about" ?

Don't take things so personally. This is a forum for discussion of these very things, so please, wont you discuss them with us?

this annoyed me, you mean like how when you touch soemthing the nerves in your fingers send impuses to your brain which are interprited by touch. You can't feel the fluid in your ear as you can in touch, you only feel it's affects. Ballence is by all defernitions of the word a sense

and truth is i have a hard time explaining what i can do.

I don't mean to attack you, but I would say that balance is in fact a derivative of touch. We have nerves, hairs etc on our skin which "feel" things that they touch, or that touch them. Little impulses get sent to our brain which knows to interpret them as soft, hard, smooth, rough etc. Within our ears, hairs and nerves use touch to determine where the fluid in our ears is lying. except, the brain knows that this is to be interpreted as upside down, on our side etc

To me, balance and a feeling of how we are being affected by gravity is not a sense in its own right. Rather, it is an evolved form of touch

P.S. From my experience, the members on this site, while being extremely open minded, will not simply accept any claim they come across - they're simply too curious. Don't take questioning offensively, it's just a sign that there are interested people on the site who want to know a bit more about you. Note that no-one said that you were lying, just that they wanted to know more. The only people that have any reason to worry are those that are deliberatly lying to goad members. I suspect that the new mods will have little tolerance xxxx

I just wanted to say hello, and say I found your ideas intriuging. I don't agree with all of them, but hey, it would be a boring forum if we all agreed! It is difficult to explain ideas sometimes, and I always feel like I'm opening myself up to ridiclue when I make a post, but the truth is the people here are learning too, and if you ask for an opinion you will get it. Good or bad. There are so many different paths here people will have different views and ideas but I think that makes it interesting.

Just by the way, on the subject of how many senses we have, Rudolph Steiner defined twelve senses. Surely there is no hard and fast schema for this. Some people call the sense of pressure a different sense than the sense of heat. And what about the sense of pain? Balance can be seen as a separate sense OR as part of a group of related senses. I think.

Being "psychic" in any form is probably just another set of senses which most people could develop to some degree. I knew someone who could see auras: she had a sense she could just switch on at will, without having to train it. If I really wanted to see auras I would probably have to practise a lot more than I do now, and even then I might not get them as clearly as she does.

Thiinking about it, it seeems to me that having a "sense" such as clairvoyance or clairaudience is something different from having an ability to make something happen, i.e. make the air move. Or does making the air move grow out of some kind of especially acute perception of the movement of air?

Also, labelling either a person or a person's ideas as "rubbish" is an emotive and hostile act. It has nothing to do with discussion or learning. Thank you.

#Sorry, that last sentence sounded pompous.
Esk
No it didn't, it sounded like good sense. wink.gif
Gaias_Child
Julia, in responce to your posts i have desided, that i love you and i want your babies happy.gif . thanks for being considerate and bringing forth such a radical and new idea to me.

Does anyone consider instinct to be a sense that might incorporate many of the skills described in this post?
