WHAT IS TELEPATHY?
His Divine Grace Qalander Baba Auliya writes in his valuable work 'Tazkira Tajuddin Baba" (An Account of Tajuddin Baba Auliya).
"Human beings are conversant with the act of 'articulation' from the very beginning. In talking, the sound waves with predetermined meanings convey the information to the listeners. This method is a duplication of that communication style which takes place between the waves of Ego. It is a common observation that a dumb person conveys everything with a slight movement of his lips and those who are versed with lip-reading; understand every thing which he desires to convey. This too, is a replica of the same method. Animals convey their feelings to their fellows without producing any sound. In this case, too, the waves of Ego are operative. Trees also converse and communicate with one another regardless of the distance existing between them. This conversation not only takes place amongst the nearby trees, but the trees at far off distances also take part in it. The same law is valid for the minerals as well. Stones, pebbles and the dust particles also negotiate with one another exactly in the same style."

The modem world of science is well acquainted with galaxial and solar systems. Science has reached that phase of its advancement where it is required to strive to understand the relationship of light of galaxial and solar systems with our planet earth and how does the light from these systems affect the earthlings, man, species of animals, plants and inanimate objects?. How the state and situations of animals, plants and other objects are changed? This also is believed by modem science that the basis of every thing existing on earth is wave. Nothing but wave. The wave which cannot be denominated by any name other than light.
In telepathy that knowledge is delved which is operative at the background of our senses remaining obscure from our conscious. This knowledge informs us that the grip of our senses is hypothetical and a fictitious thing.
Example:
When we happen to see a solid thing we instantly know of its hardness, though our mind does not come in tactual contact with that thing.
According to the most modem sciences and occult knowledge every existing thing is a collection of waves or rays. When we pay attention to any object of wood or iron the waves of wood or iron inform our mind. For
informing the mind the tactual feeling of wood or iron
is not necessary. It needs profound consideration that a wave is neither solid nor has any weight then how we come to know about softness or hardness of an object. Similarly when we see water though it has not soaked our mind. How do we pronounce water as water when it has not soaked our mind?.
More than sixty types of colors have been discovered so far. When we see a color not only we instantly recognize it but we are directly influenced by its intensity. Greenery and green shades have a soothing effect on our nerves whereas the red color causes unpleasant irritation and can even imbalance our attitude.
In fact everything is existing because of distinct and definite quantities. The fixed quantities and magnitudes of waves and rays separate one thing from another. The rays of a thing supply informations about its existence. To wit, every existing thing is another name of the waves and waves of every thing are different from one another. If some how or the other we could have this knowledge as to what type of waves are operative in man, animals, plants and inanimate objects and how can we exercise control over them, then we can influence these things. The ray or the wave in fact is a continuous movement and everything has a definite formula of the movement of waves.
We always remain surrounded by various sounds. The sounds are also a form of waves with varying wave lengths. Scientists have estimated that man cannot hear the sound waves having less than 20 cycles/sec, nor can waves of over 20,000 cycles/sec, be heard. The waves having less than 20 cycles/sec, can be heard with the help of electric current. Similarly the sound waves of more than 20,000 cycles/sec, can only be heard with the help
of electric current.
The stimulation that takes place on the retina of an eye is also because of the rays or waves. The more sensitive the eye, the more distinctively the waves are perceived. The principle of telepathy is that through practice, the sense of sight is sharpened and enhanced to such an extent where one can distinguish between the flow of stimulating waves and the waves of the senses. The eyes are the organs of sense of sight and they are influenced by external stimuli. The external stimuli affect the brain through the eyes causing the activation of sense of sight.
It has been stated that the sound waves of more than 20000 cycles/sec, can be heard with the help of electric current. This is only because all the senses and thoughts are also a sort of electric current.
It is necessary to know that whatsoever we see is not seen in the outer world. Every manifested form of universe is located within our selves. We think that what we are observing is present in the outside. Existence of anything in the out is only a hypothetical phenomenon. Every thing is residing within our selves and we observe it over there. Every observation is our own knowledge. If we do not have knowledge about something we cannot see it.
In telepathy, in the beginning, one is made to practice that the objects and things are existing within us. As a result of practice one starts observing a particular thing within one's self. Continuous attention and persisting attempts to focus finally enables one to see something present within one's self. For developing concentrative abilities, breathing exercises and Muraqbah (transcendental meditation) is performed.

THE LAW OF EXCHANGE OF THOUGHTS
Man is composed of three rings, or to say, it has three levels.
First ring is that of the conscious of an individual. Second is the unconscious of the individual and forms the conscious of mankind. Third is the .unconscious of mankind which is the conscious of the universe. This has been denominated as the cosmic conscious. Or to say, mind of an individual has three stages. The primary stage is the conscious of the individual which on the second level becomes the unconscious, is constituted from all the consciouses of all the individuals of a particular species and in case of man, the mankind. On the third stage comes the unconscious of mankind or the species which in fact is the conscious of the universe or the cosmic conscious.
When the mind rises from the level of the conscious, it enters the unconscious where record of all the consciouses of all the individuals of that particular species are preservedly stocked. And, when the mind enters the third level, it becomes the unconscious of the mankind which comprises of all the consciouses of all the species, this stage of the mind or the unconscious of a species is known as the cosmic conscious.
This thing clearly indicates that informations pertaining to every existing creature of the universe are found within an individual and exchange of these informations keep on taking place. And, angels and jinni also come under discussion when the information regarding these creatures are exchanged in the mind of an individual. Or in other words, the waves of the thoughts of all the creatures of the universe keep on transferring to us. A creature is recognized because of the transference of thoughts. We recognize any thing when the thought waves of that creature come to our mind. Similarly, realization of the feelings of hunger and thirst also arises when an information pertaining to them is received by the mind in the form of a thought. Someone impresses us because of the infusion of waves from his personality into the waves operative in us. Acceptance and rejection of any thought brings us closer to something or takes us away from it. Any breakage in this link of exchange of thoughts render us unable to recognize one another.
Thoughts reach us through the medium of light. In our own terms we call these thoughts whims, ideas, imagination, concept, and the thinking patterns of all the creatures have a common point and the very common point feeds us the informations about the existence of other creatures. Since man's unconscious remains continuously in touch with the far off boundaries of the universe, therefore, after focusing our thoughts on one single point concentratively, we can relay our message even to the most remote comers of the cosmos. This is the principle behind the science of telepathy.
Man is the talking animal, who communicates his thoughts through the sound waves whereas other animals convey their feelings and thoughts without using the medium of words. This is evident from the fact that thoughts can be exchanged without any obligation of words and sounds. Man expresses his feelings and emotions through words and sounds and the animals express their feelings without using any word and sounds. And, the one for whom the feelings are expressed, acknowledges their proper understanding by responding adequately. In the story of King Solomon and the ant stated in the Holy Quran. A discussion between King Solomon and the ant has been reported. It is important to note that ant did talk to King Solomon and King Solomon did express the understanding of the statement of the ant. Obviously ants never converse in spoken words as we do. It must have communicated through the waves of thoughts and King Solomon expressed their reception
and understanding. The moral of the story is that thoughts, feelings, sentiments and emotions can also be conveyed without spoken words.
Telepathy is the art of exchanging thoughts without using any known media. If we, like Ghous Ali Shah, could concentrate our thoughts about someone then the targeted person after becoming the focus of our thoughts would start receiving our relayed thoughts. And, if after having acquaintance with the common point of the cosmos, we transfer our thoughts to that common point, the cosmos will eventually accommodate our thoughts. This is the stage about which it has been stated in the Holy Quran, "And we have made subservient to you all that is in the heavens and the earth." The only thing is that we should be aware of the fact that all the creatures of the universe remain in constant touch with one another through the waves of thoughts and every individual keep on exchanging thoughts with other individual even if he does not 'cognize' it. Since we are not aware of this law of exchange of thoughts, we fail in comprehending the thoughts coming to our mind from the other creatures. Our ignorance of this law also results in deterioration of our own thoughts. The deterioration of thoughts results in weak willpower. One who has a strong willpower live more successfully than others only because of the fact that deterioration of his thoughts is reduced to minimum and his attention remain focused on a certain point enabling him to attend any assignment concentratively. Such a person has an impressive personality and can very easily convince others to agree with him. Those who do not have strong will-power are constrained to spend their lives aimlessly and without any purposeful objective. To make proper use of will-power and for strengthening it, it is necessary that we should be aware of this reality that the whole of our life revolves around the thoughts and the hidden relationship existing between the universe and its member creatures is also based upon the thoughts.
After settling upon the fact that the whole of our life is revolving around the thoughts and our relationship with other creatures of the universe is also based upon the thoughts, we have to consider as to how w$ can reduce the deterioration of thoughts. There is only one method for it and that is to refrain from dubiety and uncertainty and not to allow doubts and suspicions to enter into our minds. It is also important to note that the reason behind the weak willpower is the existence of uOllbtS in One's mind. And for getting rid of doubts and uncertainty, we have to have this knowledge as to how a doubt is created in the mind. Only then, we would be able to live with certitude having faith. To have certitude and belief is the only remedy for remaining protected from dubiety and uncertainty.
Weakness of determination and will-power is produced because of the doubts and suspicions. As long as there is uncertainty in thoughts, a state of certitude is not possible. When certitude is not there, willpower is not there, one cannot get his thoughts implemented. Failure in implementation of thoughts results in frustrations, depression and distress. All the exercises suggested for strengthening of will power or to develop concentration are, in fact, aimed at purging the mind of dubiety and filling it with certitude.
Continuous practice and persisting concentration enable the focusing of thoughts on one single point. This state of focusing concentration helps in replacing the state of dubiety and uncertainty with that of certitude and the thoughts start becoming the manifestations because of the backing up of developed will power and determination. This is the secret of telepathy. Those who are interested in learning this art, have to Icam to focus their thoughts on only one single point. The only condition to do it successfully is, to practice persistently and whole-heartedly.
Man passes through the various stages of life in small intervals of time and utilizes the fractions of time to live his life by combining and connecting these fractions together in his mind. We either advance from one fraction of time towards the next consecutive fraction or revert back to the previous one. In order to understand this, man thinks of taking food but due to an upset stomach the intention is relinquished, how long will he abstain from it? He
has no idea in this regard. Likewise thoughts are the ingredients of his life which cither makes him successful or unsuccessful. An intention is formed, then is relinquished or is postponed whether within minutes of its formation or in hours, in months or in years, anyhow it is ultimately abandoned. This abandonment or the relinquishmcnt is the chief constituent of man's life.
There are may things like hardships, difficulties, worries, diseases, anxiety, depression etc. etc. and to equalize all these there is one thing called 'peace' in which man sees all types of eases and comforts. Most of them are not real but hypothetical and for man they appear to be the easy ones. This creates the trend of inclination towards the easygoing. Actually, formation of the human brain is such that it makes him go for facilities and avoid difficulties. These are evidently two directions and man spends his life between these two directions through his thoughts. Every activity is motivated towards one of these two directions. We decide a plan, when we were organizing it, it was perfect and complete in all its aspects and its direction was also correct but it happens that after taking only a few steps, a change takes place in our mind, with this change the direction of our thoughts also undergoes a change, resulting in a net change in me direction of our activity. And the target towards which we were heading goes into oblivion. What is left with us'? Groping in the dark and taking steps gropingly. This is why only one out of millions of people takes a step which is in the right direction and is not withdrawn. It may please be kept in mind that all this is about the in-between stages of doubts and beliefs. As far as the majority is concerned, the main force that controls their minds is whim and doubt, which is ceaselessly effecting the cells of their minds. The more the intensity of doubts, the more will be the deterioration of the brain cells. It will not be out of place to mention that all the nerves of the body work under the direct control of brain cells and the activities of the nerves are the life.
Believing something is equally difficult for man as coming out of the illusions, dubiety and disbelief. For example, man presents himself contrary to what he actually is. He always hides his weaknesses and boasts about those hypothetical virtues which actually are not possessed by him.
