Parapsycology or Psi, as it often is called, is yet another of those areas of the connection between mind, spirit, and soul that scientists at the Institute of Noetic Science(IONS) have included as a legitimate phenomena that does, in fact, occur.


Parapsycologists tell us that Psychic and intuitive perception (what most people refer to as their gut feeling) is god given and natural to us when we are born. But
what happens to these abilities as humans grow and develop? Children
are generally taught to use them only in their most basic form.
All my grandchildren amazed me when they were small speaking of things about which I had no idea they could know. As they grew older, these memories faded; but I do believe children come into this world full of the knowledge from the ancients that they somehow lose, either because they are led to believe it is just their imagination or that it is superstitution.
I'm sure my children had this same ability, but they spent more time at the sitter than with me, because I worked.
Since I was the sitter for my grandchildren when they were young, I learned more from their toddler years. I recall Little Buddy talking to me about something. When I asked her how she knew that, she said Bill (or some such name) told her.
I recall asking her who Bill was.
She replied, "Oh, just someone I knew before."
When I have discussed this with other parents and grandparents, they have related similar instances in their children.

Now, that could lead us into a discussion of reincarnation or into a discussion that we are the sum of all who have gone before us.
The fact that this knowledge seems to fade before they reach school age leads me to believe that we suppress this knowledge in our children because it seems they are fantasizing.

Two universities in the United States currently have academic parapsychology laboratories: the Division of Perceptual Studies, a unit at the University of Virginia's Department of Psychiatric Medicine, studies the possibility of survival of consciousness after bodily death; the University of Arizona's Veritas Laboratory conducts laboratory investigations of mediums.

Several private institutions, including the Institute of Noetic Sciences, conduct and promote parapsychological research. Britain leads parapsychological study in Europe, with privately funded laboratories at the universities of Edinburgh, Northampton, and Liverpool Hope, among others.[38]

Parapsychological research has also been augmented by other sub-disciplines of psychology. These related fields include transpersonal psychology, which studies transcendent or spiritual aspects of the human mind, and Anomalistic psychology, which examines paranormal beliefs and subjective anomalous experiences in traditional psychological terms

Parapsychologists study a number of ostensible paranormal phenomena, including but not limited to:

* Telepathy: Transfer of information on thoughts or feelings between individuals by means other than the five classical senses.

* Precognition: Perception of information about future places or events before they occur.

* Clairvoyance: Obtaining information about places or events at remote locations, by means unknown to current science.

* Psychokinesis: The ability of the mind to influence matter, time, space, or energy by means unknown to current science.

* Reincarnation: The rebirth of a soul or other non-physical aspect of human consciousness in a new physical body after death.

* Hauntings: Phenomena often attributed to ghosts and encountered in places a deceased individual is thought to have frequented, or in association with the person's former belongings.

The definitions for the terms above may not reflect their mainstream usage, nor the opinions of all parapsychologists and their critics. Many critics, for example, feel that parapsychologists are engaged in the study of phenomena that disappear under stringent experimental conditions and are thus normal processes.

According to the Parapsychological Association, parapsychologists do not study all paranormal phenomena, nor are they concerned with astrology, UFOs, Bigfoot, paganism, vampires, alchemy, or witchcraft.
