Telepathy


Telepathy is known as the communication of thoughts between one person (sender or agent) and another (one or more, known as receiver or recipient), without the use of speech, any sensory channel or body language. 


While scientists the world over do not consider telepathy to be a real phenomenon, pedestrians in India seem to strongly differ and feel telepathy definitely exists between them and ALL the motorists and the thoughts in their minds like:

1. The exact moment when he/she, standing on the road divider, will start to cross the road despite the fast moving traffic;

2. The exact spot on the road from which he/ she may unexpectedly and suddenly decide to turn back mid-way while crossing;

3. Whether he/ she will panic on seeing the speeding vehicles and if yes, the exact spot on the road on which he / she may stand transfixed or the direction(s) in which he / she is likely to run helter skelter;

4. Whether a pedestrian who has started to run from the sidewalk on the right side will halt on the divider or continue to run across the road;

5. The exact speeds at which he/ she will walk or run during the course of crossing the road in all the above scenarios;

6. The critical problem or thought process which may be temporarily distracting his / her focus from crossing the road; and

7. Many other thoughts, related and unrelated to the crossing of the road...

- always get communicated to ALL motorists on the road in real time and exactly as they arise in their minds, to enable the motorists to carefully control their respective vehicles accordingly for the pedestrians' (and if possible, their own) safety.
