More ESP – Expanding the Mind’s Potential

ESP, precognition, premonition, intuition, sixth sense or perhaps “spidey-sense”. Call it what you will but the human brain seems to have a capacity and ability to interpret information outside and apart from what we usually receive through our five senses. Science is hesitant to study this aspect of the human condition because of its intangible quality, but there have been countless accounts from ordinary people who have had extraordinary experiences, perhaps saving themselves from harm or difficult situations just because they listened to their gut.

For the past 40 years, the American CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) and the DOD (Department of Defence) have studied ESP. They acknowledge that we all have access to this ability, albeit, they claim, it is weak in some, strong in others and “extraordinary in a rare few”.

An online Time article (April 3/17) reported that in 2014, the ONR (Office of Naval Research) in the US began a 4-year research programme into premonition and intuition amongst its sailors and marines. The applications in developing our innate intuitive abilities have a very practical basis. So much so that the ONR refers to it as “sensemaking”. They define this as, “a motivated and continuous effort to understand connections (which can be among people, places and events) in order to anticipate their trajectories and act effectively”.

One would think that success in military combat would be largely dependent on strategic thinking, rationality and acute observation. The ONR, however, are not the only ones who have placed importance on our sixth sense. Mike Jaco is a former Navy Seal who wrote a book on this very topic called, Intuitive Warrior. He states, “By fine-tuning my intuition as a Navy Seal, I was able to predict and avoid attacks to protect myself and my fellow soldiers.”

The following incident happened to Navy Seal veteran, founder of the SEALFIT Training Programme, author and podcast presenter, Mark Divine.

“Mark stopped abruptly. An innate warning commanded him to STOP. Moments later a bullet flew past his skull, so close he felt the wind brush his hair. This commanding voice of inner nature, had saved his life.”

Mark is a firm believer in the intuitive process and says that although “we all have it to some degree…a lot of times we ignore it, or we deny it.” The role of gut instinct manifests in a rather dramatic way in military and combat scenarios, as it would for police, emergency services or law enforcement personnel. Intuition should not be ignored, however, by the average person as we make our way through the demands of the day. Imagine if we were able to make better decisions in every aspect of life with our honed intuition. Better on-the-job decisions, avoiding potentially dangerous places, situations or people, tapping into vast reserves of creativity and imagination, and sharpening our sense of self in relation to the world around us.

The human eye can only see 1% of the visible light spectrum, but there is so much more. Intuition is like the vast spectrum we cannot see. It goes beyond our physical senses, beyond our limited knowledge, biased opinion and sometimes faulty reasoning and provides pure information without the influence of subjective thought. How can nurturing and developing our sixth sense not be of the greatest benefit to us?
