There's the Scole Experiment; look up Dr. Gary Schwartz at the University of Arizona. See what you can find out about a fascinating and remarkable lady, Suzy Smith, who was very close to Dr. Schwartz. She wrote many books and was very gifted. "The Afterlife Codes" is one that I can think of.
He the doctor who performs tests and studies on and with people with extraordinary psychic abilities; people like Alison DuBois, John Edward and others.

Answer 3

Telekinesis or other psychic abilities have been recorded, but there is some question as to whether the records are solid evidence. I believe that certain psychic phenomena have occurred, but I also think they are rare. If you are planning to seriously research this, I'd advise you to have a skeptical yet open mind. This feild does suffer from charlatans and con artists, but there are also some indications that there is something to it.

Answer 4

Yes, there has been recorded instances of TK.

Despite attempts by small minded people to discredit her and her gift, Russian Nina Kulagina has given many demonstrations of TK for various Russian scientists.
During such demonstrations, Ms. Kulagina would loose sometimes as much as five pounds of her body weight from the effort involved. Eventually the strain of doing such telekinetic demonstrations for people lead to her early death.

While the mainstream scientific community has little regard for this area, the military and intelligence communities have put a lot research into psionics; neither communities doubt the existence of such "wild talents."

And numerous people have done as well as filmed demonstrations of telekinesis, but just because they look fake-- and anybody *can* fake them, that's true -- it doesn't mean that they are fake. Many, if not most of the fimed demos, aren't fake.

Answer 5

Many. I have listed numerous links below to allow you to read up on the scientific research literature in the field rather than editorial pieces, not worthy of publication in peer reviewed science journal where the actual research is published, offered by the skeptics.

Note: Telekinesis (TK) is now called Psychokinesis in the scientific research literature.

Answer 6

Well, the short answer is no. Despite the egregious misinformation constantly posted by YA paranormal evangelists, evidence for telekinesis (or psychokinesis or PK) is very limited and and pretty much ignored as bad science by the rest of the scientific community, and for good reason. While some may claim that PK has been "demonstrated at statistically significant levels by thousands of individuals over thousands of experiments (many of them repeated)", a thousand badly designed, badly performed and badly analyzed experiments don't sum up to one good experiment, and the statistical significance mentioned above is at best debatable, at worst laughable.

Moreover, some might point to sleight-of-hand magicians such as Nina Kulagina and claim it's not magic at all but paranormal ability. This is rubbish, and Kulagina's tricks are standard fare for the amateur magician nowadays. The moving of an object under a glass cover is a standard magic show trick. The history of psi is filled with frauds trying to bamboozle the public, and Kulagina was no different. You might find videos of unknown authenticity of Kulagina and others on the internet, but consider your source. Don't be gullible.

I've included a link below which is heavily documented so that you can check its accuracy if you wish. You'll find it entertaining reading. I especially like the part about J.B. Rhine (of the Rhine Institute) being totally bamboozled by a trained horse!

Answer 7

Absolutely, my friend. The Bible is chock-full of these miracles.

Answer 8

Have you ever heard of Edgar Cayce? He used psychic abilities to diagnose thousands of diseases.

Answer 9

In Russia, they've done numerous things including those. There was a show on remote viewing that was based on a real mans life working for our government. He wrote a book about his life experiences with the government .(Sorry I forget the name of it and him).The building where the Iranian hostages were, was found by remote viewing. Lots of governments do these things we're just not told about them. If interested please go to my website goodpsychicmedium.com Thanks!

The military does it often, contact General Strassen in AZ,and his people will explain it all to you!

Answer 11
