Very well written. You’ve made interesting progress down a rabbit hole that I think may have many offshoots.
As far as I know, it’s possible that every species on Earth is telepathic. It would be unusual if humans were not.
I doubt that it works the way Hollywood would have us believe. We have to keep in mind that there are trillions of other entities just on this planet alone as well as billions of human beings. The possibilities are infinite.
Extrapolating from Rupert Sheldrakes work, I believe that humans have a morphogenetic field of mind that connects every member of our species .
Whether or not that is something old, known and kept from us or if it’s a new developing mutation is unknown to me. Given the Hindu tales, it seems like it’s an ability available to humans that went dormant around the same time civilization supposedly emerged 5-10,000 years ago.
I saw an article that said we should use the word tele-empathy instead of telepathy due to the way it manifests itself. I tend to agree that the way we’ve been miseducated to think of the phenomena misdirects us away from recognizing it when it happens.
I think that there is currently a cover up as the implications would be too much for many of us to handle. I arrived at that conclusion after finding some significant studies from the turn of the century (1890s-1910s) that are very obscure but quite extensive.
Any more than that and I should make my own post. I’ve posted about the subject before, but from a different angle. I wondered if our thoughts have any perceivable volume and went from there.
I look forward to reading more of your thoughts here on Medium. Thanks for your input.
