Today we frequently incorporate the term "Sixth Sense" (i.e.: synonymous with Extra Sensory Perception (ESP) terminology) into daily activities when something occurs beyond the realm of easy explanation. In using this terminology we commonly laugh or shrug off an otherwise abnormal event as "normal" as "commonplace." Statistically, 67 percent of all American adults admit that the "Sixth Sense" is an active part of their life according to a study completed by the University of Chicago's National Opinion Research Council. This statistic we can be certain has increased since 1987 when it was evaluated and we know it has increased since the research completed eleven years earlier in 1976 when the statistic was 58 percent of all American adults. It has been thought that the increase of this statistic was indicative of an the increased acceptance of ESP among the general public. Certainly, in 1976 it wasn't as acceptable to proclaim your proclivity toward extra sensory qualities, but in 2004 it's considered with routine deliberation.

The "Sixth Sense" is anything but commonplace though when we begin to recognize it in our lives. You may identify your own "Sixth Sense" capability while referencing the following "Six Sense" characteristics:

  • Telepathy - lit. remote feeling/perception - information perceived by one person gained by another when currently recognised sensory channels are unavailable.

  • Clairvoyance - lit. clear seeing - person appears to gain information about their environment when currently recognised sensory channels are unavailable.

  • Precognition - lit. pre-knowing - where nondeductible information about a future event is acquired.

  • Retro-cognition - lit. after-knowing a type of clairvoyance involving knowledge of something after its occurrence through psychic means.

  • Remote Viewing (RV) - lit. psycho energetic perception term coined by SRI-International and defined as acquisition and description, by mental means, of information blocked from ordinary perception (e.g., by distance, shielding, or time); referred to as a "viewer," the remote viewer is a person who employs his mental faculties to perceive and obtain information that he has no other access and that he has no previous knowledge of concerning persons, places, events, or objects separated from him by time, distance, or other intervening obstacles.

  • Clairaudience - lit. clear hearing used to denote the faculty of supranormal hearing, that is the perception of sounds, voices, and music not audible to normal hearing.
