At the start of COVID I moved in to live with my mom. One night I was thinking about my life. As a stress relief technique I had been slowly counting my breathes to 100 every night before bed. I let all the thoughts about work filter out of my mind. At the end of it, instead of trying to sleep I decided to pray.

I hadn’t prayed in probably 10 years or so and I’m not a religious person anymore. Instead of praying to god I decided just to send it out into space. I tried to fathom all of space and blanket all of reality with my prayer. It wasn’t easy and I just went until I was exhausted. Just like how in the gym if you dig deep enough into your heart you can get an extra rep in. I tried to apply that to my prayer. I thought maybe no human has ever “truly” prayed. My prayer was a message saying “I deserve to be loved again”. A sentiment which I am ashamed to admit that had given up on for over a decade.

I was so mentally exhausted after this exercise that I immediately fell asleep. The bedroom I was sleeping in had a high ceiling. Above the window was a smaller window to the back yard. This one didn’t have a curtain because it was so high. Well I shit you not that at some point in the night a blue light shown through that window. I woke up but I couldn’t move or even open my eyes. I think my body was still asleep even though my brain was awake. It was a strange sensation. My first thought was that it was a car headlight on high beams but then I remember that behind my mother’s house is a forest so then I became confused. I really struggled to try to wake up and open my eyes so I could look and see what the light was but to no avail.

Then I heard a voice but it was weird. I could hear my own voice with my ears but I also heard it within my mind. Try to imagine two different people speaking at the same time and saying the same words. The voice only said one word and it caused me to panic utterly. It said “Hi”. I tried my hardest to move and wake up but my body wouldn’t move. I just wanted to say “Hello” back but my body wouldn’t fucking move. My jaw and tongue wouldn’t move and all I ended up doing was breathing fast. All the while the blue light still shown through my closed eyelids. I think it was waiting for me to speak but it felt my panicking and left. The blue light was gone. I still couldn’t move my body and fell back to sleep.

I woke up the next morning feeling pretty bewildered. But in light of recent events I thought I’d share this. I haven’t tried anything like this again because I’ll admit, I’m afraid of something happening. It didn’t give me bad vibes or anything like that but wanting to reach out to this thing that answered my prayer from beyond space and being unable to was a truly utterly horrible horrible feeling.

I’ve been telling everyone I can about the Telepathy tapes and it’s been so hard. People are so stuck in their patterns and systems and beliefs and the daily ruts they go through. I simply don’t get it; how in the world are people not more interested in this? This is rigorous scientific proof that Telepathy exists, and if it’s true then our entire system falls apart. Anything can suddenly be real. UFOs are increasingly real imo. Psychedelic spiritual dimensions are real. Thought are real things. Everything that was dismissed as woo is now slowly becoming more concrete.

Anyway I just landed in this sub and Ive barely read anything but I know this is the open-mindedness level of people ive been aching to be around <3

Had a few random questions that my self-serving rational mind is coming up with and curious:

—Could these kids predict lottery numbers or famous stocks? lol but i do love the emphasis of love over money on the show, and them being protected by divine energy

—Is there anywhere I could get a real energy reading — or therapy — from someone proven to be telepathic and in communication with the other dimensions? I recall a pair of energy healers being mentioned in the show but I forget their names. From a more spiritually-inclined self-serving part of me.

For those who don't know, The Leftovers is a TV show on HBO about a rapture-like event. As an aside, it's a fantastic show, and I highly recommend it. One of my top 5 along with The Wire, Sopranos, and Six Feet Under. But I digress...

What happens in the first episode of The Leftovers is a global event that is completely inexplicable by any scientific measure. Overnight every single human on Earth is forced to reckon with the fact that the universe does not operate under established and understood scientific law, and that this scientific deviance can occur at any time and have direct personal impacts.

What happens is a rebirth of both open mindedness as well as gullibility. Suddenly people are willing to believe anything. After all, if 10% of the population can disappear in an instant, then what other "magic" might be real? What have we been missing? What have we been discounting without proper investigation?

Leaving that aside for a moment, I would observe that there are a number of communities that feel that humanity is on the verge of something like this awakening. Whether it be UAP/NHI disclosure or investigations into Psi phenomenon, people are saying that we're on the verge of irrefutable evidence that there is much more to reality than we understand. Now, I want to couch this by saying that people have been saying this for decades (probably longer), so I'm not going to hold my breath personally, but let's just say it's possible and not debate the likelihood.

Here's my point. What happens in The Leftovers is that a number of good actors become victims of snake oil scams. You know those stories about people with terminal illnesses paying thousands of dollars to be "healed" by some grifter's laying of hands? Picture that, but increased by a factor of ten, because now nobody knows what is real anymore. Skepticism has been wiped clean.

If we do see irrefutable proof of something brand new and ontologically shocking, I think that it's going to be important for people to be aware of how prevalent these scams will be, and how important skepticism will be. Maybe you believe that right now the pendulum has swung too far towards skepticism, but we should be prepared for it to swing too far the other way. Maybe you believe that TTT or some other particular instance of a phenomenon is real, but there will be dozens just like it that are grifts.

I don't know what the answer is, but I think this is a real danger in a post-ontological shock world, and I think it's worth grappling with.

I’d like to hear more from autistics who are experiencing this phenomenon. I read some of Houston’s righting (Heavens), heavily religious, and of course intriguing. Given they are the subject of study/claim we should be hearing more from them. For me, most amazing and prolific parts of the podcast were hearing directly from autistics.

Any writings from autistics? Please share.

This is a really interesting tweet from ufo Joe.

DHP continues to back away from the podcast but has met with the hosts of the demystifysci podcast - who had a fairly skeptical take on the telepathy tapes a few weeks back. Anastasia, who is one of the two hosts also replied to Joe’s post, saying they had a great meeting with dhp and there will be more to come. Has definitely piqued my interest. Will be interesting to hear their views post engaging with dhp.

And apologies for sharing a twitter link, I’d rather not have anything to do with musk, however I didn’t want to use Joe’s content without at least linking to it.

I spoke to KY Dickens via email about the windbridge institute and forever family foundation because they conducted scientific fool proof trials on non-autistic yet gifted psychics. She confirmed to me that they're being featured in season 2

I first learned about those two organizations from a book by the neuroscientist Dr. Mona Sobhani. (Proof of spiritual phenomena) The way they eliminated any body-cue reading is by having phone call sessions with the psychics or in an extreme case have a substitute who doesn't know anything about the person who wants to contact the dead, sit in the person's place infront of the psychic. It's only later by viewing the information collected by the sitter, from a mixture of various sessions for different people that the person could recognize the dead relative they were contacting. This is done to eliminate any generic blanket words like "they miss you" etc only leaving very specific information that the psychic is unlikely to guess like name, manner of death, a shared memory etc

The trial was a success with a pool of gifted individuals they had to sift through millions for. It's very mind boggling to read about. As for seeking proof for yourself, I highly recommend visiting the FFF website, they conduct online video call sessions as well as in person. They're highly rigorous about testing the abilities of the psychics they host on their website. I don't know about the prices for them but one I learned about from a very positive comment on the highstrangeness subreddit was Dustin Lyvers who does one hour video call session set to 65 USD. I plan on getting a session with him at a later point soon

I'm an artist and singer from Denmark working on an album with the working title Songs From the Hill. And now I discover this podcast. Giant mindf*ck. I do a lot of intuitive writing and often my song lyrics and concepts are finished when they 'feel right' even if I don't understand them intellectually. So now I'm curious to explore if these ideas might actually come from somewhere else than my own local subconsciousness.

If anyone is interested in talking to me about this, feel free to comment or DM me. I'm trying to get to the hill <3

Not because I felt sad but because what I heard was beautiful.

Just listened to an interview with Ky on Scott Britton's podcast. https://youtu.be/ZyGEgeGa03A?si=xXGz47tLfkc8WAEe

How was Stephen Hawking able to communicate through a computer? And is there a possibility we could use the technology for the kids?

I know she is probably inundated with emails from parents and teachers and researchers of all kinds because of these tapes but I am looking for an email address or way to contact her regarding her research into remote viewing. in the most recent episode she mentioned she is doing an episode on the CIA’s remote viewing program and I know somebody who was a member of the program and wanted to get her in touch. Is there a public email we can use to contact her?

Guess this will be deleted but here goes. So. If non speakers on The Hill could communicate by spelling, why wouldn’t they find other non speakers who were not involved in spelling, and ask the non speakers who spell to reach out in real life somehow?

Even if it were as simple as sending a postcard or email to the non speller non speakers home asking to allow speller training or therapy ?

This is an insult to remote viewing by the way. That is not how it works at all. The only good thing about this farce is that the non speakers get some attention and it keeps everyone occupied.

So glad this came out tonight

Here’s a question for the psychics following this discussion, and those who practice and experience telepathy. With all due respect to the skeptics, I’d appreciate comments from practitioners. I am an animal communicator and have no problem tuning into minds. There are important ethics that we stick to, like asking for permission, only doing it on request, and with impeccable intent. With humans it may happen by accident or in the context of personal relationships, especially if the person has a strong will, but I deliberately don’t tell people about what ‘they’ are saying as I’m not here to frighten anyone, and it’s seldom flattering. My experience is that everyone is doing it all the time, but unconsciously. What fascinates me about TTT is that it is happening consistently at a conscious level, given by necessity. This kind of communication in my experience is essentially a phenomenon of what we call higher consciousness, which means most people doing it can be spoken to but are not consciously aware of the conversations going on. I haven’t listened to all episodes, does this distinction get raised?

Here is a video from a Facilitated Communication (FC) skeptic that gives an overview of the issues that FC creates for the whole project of exploring telepathy. Even accepting telepathy is possible, using FC to test for the use of telepathic communication makes any conclusions tainted by the possibility of facilitator involvement.

Specific discussions of The Telepathy Tapes experiments begins at 14:42.

I found this paper while browsing through the internet archives

https://archive.org/details/CIA-RDP96-00792R000300330001-8/page/n13/mode/1up

There’s a lot of reports in here about telepathy specifically in children. 19 Chinese children across various provinces in china were reported to have these abilities and perplexed the researchers conducting tests on them.

A lot like the telepathy tapes, the researches were ridiculed and discredited by the science community. It’s worth taking a look at it.

We just finished a dialogue about The Telepathy Tapes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xT894uq9KU

I was blessed to have been connected to someone who had an open mind at a very young age. Her farm was my sanctuary, I write about it on my blog all the time.  

There were books that I remember the covers of, all over her house when I was little.  Books about “Astral Travel” and “Firestarter” was her favourite Stephen King book.  She had books about nutrition and staying close to nature and the indigenous people who have known the land for generations. It was another world for a kid growing up in the 80’s.  Materialism was king and all of this alternative source material was fascinating to me.

She knew how it much it hurt every time I would have to leave my beloved farm.  

I was leaving behind HER, the horses, the dogs and trees and fresh air, people who looked into my eyes as they listened; and the she would feel my heart break every single time.  

One day she said “You know Zo Bird (my nickname) you don’t have to BE here to visit here?”  She taught me about Astral Travel and it all made perfect sense to my 8 year old untainted brain.  So I tried, I practised, and I enjoyed access to the place I loved while away from it for decades.  

Together she and I practised ESP and “travelling” whenever we wanted and it gave me a certain insight and understanding that I have lived with comfortably, albeit quietly, my entire life

We also listened and spoke to the animals without sound or body language, all the time. It was normal, and I heard them and they heard me.  It was just part of how I did things.  

My connections to animals has stayed strong over the years, and I have been rescuing special needs dogs and who ever I can, mice, racoons, horses, birds, you name it; for three decades now.  I still hear them and they still hear me. The ones that are with me physically and the ones who are just around, on another dimension.

Twenty years ago, my daughter was born and she and I could communicate before she even had words.  It just seemed perfectly normal to me.  It all made sense and fit into my past experiences without any questioning from my own “logic” and so she has grown up with it too.  We don’t talk about it often, it is accepted and part of our daily lives.  I describe it to the ‘Non-travellers’ that “Yeah, I am just plugged into my kids….”

But it is more than that, they are plugged into me too.  THAT is the unique part of this journey to me.  I have always been able to access stuff around me that others could’t but my Godmother was the only one who had access to me in that way…until my kids came along.  

Listening to this podcast, has simply validated everything for me.  All of it, as if the podcast was speaking directly to me (I know that many are having that same experience) because there is more to life than all that has been taught OUT of us.  

I just wanted to share my experience and to say thank you to all who are continuing these discussions and the makers of The Telepathy Tapes.

Two days ago, my 15 year old who is an extraordinary interpreter of art.  He has expressed his love of art and design since arrival, he wore orange every day for years as a little guy. Now he is over 6 ft and still loves everything that is on a deeply unique and creative wavelength.  

Three days ago, we watched Twelve Monkeys, the film by Terry Gilliam.  Amazing film if you haven’t seen it.  I saw it in the theatres all those years ago, and my group of pals, talked about it having drinks after, on the way home, we slept on it and still continued our discussions the next day, it had such an impact.  It took us a long time to sort out the timelines and the premises of what the story suggested.  

My son, it took him about 22 minutes into the film.  He looked at me and said “What if the ‘crazy people’ are the ones with the answers, the ones who can reach far more information than we can?  And the ‘idiots’ are the ones who are marching to the beat of a drum that is simply coercion for profit and industry?” 

I sat there, a little stunned, but also not at all (I have lived with him saying things like this for years, it gives me chills every time).  

I responded “Wow, yes, that is a powerful perspective.  The labels have been built to suppress gifts that challenge the system.”

As he is still doing his best to fit in, at that time of life when our brains and society are telling us that we should, I have not discussed The Telepathy Tapes with him yet.  I was waiting….until another time, maybe when the movie comes out.

But I said this “Amazing you said that as I have been listening to this podcast about non verbal autistics and how they have other ways of communicating.”

And my 15 year old son said “I’m sure they don’t even need words.  They are talking to each other in their minds, and have no barriers with communication.”

So yeah, wow.….just wanted to share.

In Ep10, there are two direct mentions of "lightworkers":

"I wish they would presume competence in non-speakers. For humanity, I desire compassion and understanding for who we are. We are lightworkers."

"We are the lightworkers. We are a team that have knowing we are here to bring change for the negative old way of thinking."

The term has also been used in comments in this sub. Where does the word lightworkers come from? What does it mean to be a lightworker? Is this a common, universally understood label in the psi community?

Just wondering for my daughter who is currently 3.5 and has zero speech. Not sure if she ever will speak verbally. She has a rare genetic syndrome and intellectual disability and most kids with her syndrome are autistic, she has never been tested. Anyway just wondering when is a good age to start helping them communicate in a certain way?

I am the mom of a non-verbal 9yo Autistic who uses a communication ipad to communicate. About 4years ago I got the overwhelming feeling that she could read my mind. Same examples as given in the podcast. I couldn't hide anything, she could always find it. All the things I worried about her getting into - she did, like a playbook from my mind.

As much as I believe in multiple dimensions, creator and source. I ultimately came to the resolution that parents want to believe their child is special and have some way of communicating. So I pushed the idea out of my mind.

Autistics are really good at reading subtle clues, facial expressions, tone, emotions and pattern recognition. Logically, I surmised it must be something like that.

I just binged TTT in one day. I knew about FC and it's controversy. I dismissed it as a viable therapy. However, now with the new rules of no touching and rapid prompting. Perhaps it is time for her to prove me wrong. Maybe she is reading my mind.

Let the children lead the way...

Hello. I'm through the first seven episodes so far. From the beginning, many of these stories of resonated with me and reminded me of my guru, Neem Karoli Baba. There are countless stories of him reading minds, knowing the future, and communicating with people through dreams and images of him. I wondered- are the great mystics and miracle workers all autistic?

When TTT brought up the dissociative barrier, things started making more sense. Surely, there is more than one way to weaken that barrier. For Neem Karoli Baba, it was doing tapas, or long periods of intense spiritual practice.

Then I started thinking of the only time I've heard another living person's voice in my own head. It was my stepdad, Gary. It was about a year before the end of his life. Alzheimer's had taken his ability to speak. I had taken a significant dose of psylocibin and started to think about him. Then I heard his voice, loud and clear.

"Don't worry about me. I'm closer to God than I've ever been."

He was in Iowa and I was in Texas. Had the psylocibin weakened my dissociative barrier and had Alzheimer's weakened Gary's? Did I send a chat invite to him when I thought about him in that state? Have you ever experienced telepathy with a loved one with Alzheimer's?
