Psychokinesis (literally "mind-movement") or PK, previously known as telekinesis (literally "distant-movement"), is the alleged psi ability to influence the behavior of matter by mental intention or activity. The term remote influencing came into more widespread use in 2004. The term remote influencing describes the application of psychokinesis to biological systems.[citation needed] This may be to impact positively or negatively upon health, mood, or decision making. Similarly, remote viewing has been applied to clairvoyance. These terms emerged from research undertaken by the American government, for the application of psychic abilities to intelligence gathering, military force, and remote assassination. Claims in this area are made in The Men Who Stare At Goats, written by Jon Ronson to accompany his British TV series The Crazy Rulers of the World. It is claimed in the 1980s at 'goat lab' at Fort Bragg, special forces troops attempted to influence the heart rate of mammals such as goats. It is claimed skilled remote influencers can stop the hearts of goats and hamsters long enough to cause death. According to Ronson, on the personal instructions of Donald Rumsfeld post 9/11, over 100 goats were shipped to Fort Bragg, North Carolina, and the research was resumed.
Glenn Wheaton claims to have been involved in the original ‘goat lab’ project in the 1980s, and continues his research in partnership with Dick Allgire through the Hawaiian Remote Viewing Guild. The combination of the intent of psychokinesis, and the control and focus of remote viewing, reportedly enables specific parts of the mind and body of any person to be remotely influenced.
The programs are generally said to be secret, making verification difficult. Incidents of illness in world figures, such as George W. Bush's loss of consciousness after choking on a pretzel in January, 2002, have been ascribed to psychic attacks. Many websites offer to sell courses that purportedly teach remote viewing and remote influencing.

Wrong word. Telekinesis means moving objects with no visible means.
What you are looking for is Telepathy, the ability to read someone Else's mind.
Another hard question.
There are so many signals people send that are not on the conscious level. Body language is a big one. You send signals by the way you hold yourself that telegraph your meaning, whether you meant to or not.
Body language, intonation, they all give clues.
For true Telepathy, you need to be physically separated from the person who's mind you are reading. Not saying it exists, just that that is what you need to show it.
The question you are asking involves reading physical clues to gain knowledge of intent. That is not telepathy, and it can be learned.

Ummm...'lovely', telekinesis has nothing to do with teleportation.
Telekinesis is the ability to move things with your mind, and I personally don't believe in it. You can certainly sense what people are feeling, or tension in a room, but I think that is just our instincts, nothing particularly amazing about that. I do wish telekinesis was possible, though, but it would probably make me even lazier than I am now!

It has never been demonstrated in a scientific setting. The James Randi site offers a one million dollar reward for anyone who can demonstrate this type of phenomena. The reward has never been claimed. Don't you think if anyone could actually do this would want a million dollars! They would be stumbling all over themselves to be tested. And this is something that could easily be tested. The people who say it is real, cannot offer you one shred of proof that it is, and offer you nothing but absolute hogwash. The so called proof I've read people post so far is nothing but unsubstantiated blather. Period. You can say anything. But scientific proof is another thing. And there ain't none!

No! An object has to move, its not a feeling or a sensation which will create telekinesis . It maybe just your 6th sense!

Yes telekinesis exists.
The Russians threw billions into it at the height of the Cold war.
& yes I pick up on vibes.
It's a curse, not a gift!

There is no scientific evidence that there is any such thing.
What you are feeling are your own emotional reaction to an external state -- not the feelings of someone else projected onto you. You're feeling emotion, not anything physical or external.

I kinda understand your logic, but I think that would be more of telepathy since the effects you feel are mental and not physical.
