My mother used to do psychic writings for other people. She would sit in a quiet room with a lit candle and staring in a mirror, she would write at least 2 pages for the person present. It was quite eerie how right on she was about people's past and future. I never liked watching her. She looked like she wasn't even my mother when she would do it. It looked like she would go into a trance.

In 1968 I was a freshman in college, the instructor, who was about 65 years old started to write something on the blackboard, he wrote about 7 or 8 words......he then said, "Oh, that is Sanskrit". This happened at Mayville State Teacher's College in Mayville, North Dakota, USA.

I had a dream the other night, in which i was speaking in a strange language (that i never heard) but i could make total sense of what i was saying. When i woke up i was *still talking,* i could still catch myself saying a couple of words out loud, although my voice sounded much deeper than normal. I immediately forgot everything i said in the dream, but i know i could understand it when i was saying it. I think it has to do with paranormal presences in my house, they started visiting about a year ago and are still here. I can sense them all around, can even touch them at times - they have an electric touch to them that's hard to describe - and i've even captured some on photo and video. This world has much left to be understood...

[@humbertojimmy]

@@bambieyedd You have no idea. It's like i've been living in the Twilight Zone for a full year now. I have witnessed so many bizarre things, and it keeps adding daily. Thankfully i have a lot recorded for proof, so others (and myself) don't think i'm just crazy.

[@bambieyedd]

@@humbertojimmy I would love to hear more if your stories

[@humbertojimmy]

@@bambieyedd thanks! I recall experiencing weird stuff since always, but it was never enough to *really* prove the existence of the paranormal. It guess it could be anything, from illusions to coincidence or just me reading too much into things. It all changed about a year ago, one fine night when i couldn't sleep. I was in bed awake and the lack of sleep made me more aware of the surroundings. I started noticing tiny sounds in the dark and... for some reason i sensed it as strange. A house makes many sounds, wood creaks, objects settle into place, etc. But somehow i realized there was... a pattern to those sounds. They weren't random. And if they weren't random, they were made with purpose. By whom? What was going on? That was the night i discovered there are entities beyond our imagination and the paranormal is true! The rest is too long of a story. If you drop a mail or other contact i can tell you a bit more and show you some of my photos, if you wish. No problem.

The screaming music about 15:14, when she was looking at the picture... It was so eerie to me. They should've used it in a more frightening episode, though. "The Image of Death" would've been a really good one to use it in, while they looked at the skull stain on the wall. Or "the Vision" while they looked at the light in the sky. "The Return" while the soldier was trying to find his way through the woods and the guys back at the base were talking about him. I sort of feel like it was wasted here

There is a Brazilian medium named Francisco Chico Xavier who was very popular for his ongoing "automatic writings".

A marvelous episode

[@footfault]

My father, when a college student, watched a professor write the words "the cosmos" on a blackboard, which made no sense at all in the context. The prof was very embarrassed, aplogized to the class, and went on without further loss of control. It turns out one of my father's classmates was half-reading, half-meditating, on a theology text instead of listening to the prof., on the nature of the cosmos. This is a true occurrence. The power of concentrated thought/meditation is underestimated and not well understood.

[@filosofotacio8950]

My father said he was Batman. It turns out he was lying. People, most people like yourself, lie.

[@dianalovescolors]

It could be true...all episodes of One Step Beyond are based on true stories.

[@SandyCheeks63564]

Psychic phenomena are quite common in times of urgency, this is why it never manifests when they give those silly tests with the symbols on cards. And I suppose a well-practiced meditative state can also be effective for transmitting thoughts. Very often animals we are close to sense our thoughts and emotions when they are compelling as well.
