Extra sensory perception, or ESP, is the ability to perceive things without using the five senses. It's controversial because it sometimes seems real but can never be entirely proven.
In short, ESP has no scientific consensus. Skeptics say it's not real, while believers are convinced that ESP is a fact of life.
I'm going to start by explaining what ESP is. It's the ability to perceive things with one or more of your five senses without using them.
This can manifest in several ways.
The most well known is telepathy. That's when one person reads another person's mind. For instance, you can read words or images in someone else's head.
The second kind is clairvoyance. That's when one person gets a mental image of something without being there in person.
People have been talking about ESP since before the dawn of history and it is still shrouded in mystery. It's also called sixth sense, which refers to the traditional five senses: sight, hearing, taste, touch and smell.
The sixth sense is not an extra sense, but the ability to use one's ordinary senses in a more effective way. In ancient Chinese and Indian philosophy, the sixth sense was called 'intuition' or 'inner vision', which refers to your intuition.
Intuition is a form of rational thinking. People often use it to make important decisions and solve problems in the absence of other information. It is a kind of thought that goes beyond logical reasoning, which people are used to.
The ability to use intuition is the most important factor in using ESP. Some people say that they have a 'gut feeling', which means they can feel instinctively what others cannot do rationally.
The sixth sense is sometimes referred to as 'sixth consciousness', which means that you are conscious of all things. In other words, your mind can understand everything in the universe.
When ESP is involved, it can be divided into two kinds: extrasensory perception and paranormal psychic phenomena.
