The Depiction Of The Telekinetic In Pop Culture - Cartoons, Fairy Tales And Tales Of The Paranormal
Imagine being able to move objects with a mere thought. How your life would change! You wouldn’t have to run for the phone, because it could come to you. You could carry more than two cups of coffee at one time or unlock doors without having to put down the heavy load in your arms.
Telekinesis, or psychokinesis, the ability to manipulate matter with the power of one’s mind has raged for decades. In that sentence ‘raged’ is woefully inadequate to describe the postings on news groups and bulletin boards that I have read. For example, an advocate for psionic ability asserts that it exists. End of argument. The skeptic answers, “No, it does not exist, you [multiple expletives deleted]!” End of argument.
Whether telekinesis (TK) is reality, less controversial is the ability for TK to capture our imaginations in pop culture literature and film. Before Stephen King frightened us with ‘Carrie’, Marvel Comics introduced Jean Grey, a mutant/hero in their extraordinary and wildly popular series, The X-Men. George Lucas’s Jedi Masters tapped into ‘The Force’. J. Michael Straczynski’s Babylon 5 introduced us to the Psi-Corps, a group of psionic enabled humans (mainly telepaths), formed to police their own people. In later seasons, we find out that the Psi-Corps was formed by the Shadows for ulterior motives, etc. There are many more examples of TK’s in pop culture and any omissions here are only for space and not in anyway reflective of the fantastic minds behind those creations, such as Anne McCaffrey’s Rowan and Pern series.
How so?
People are coming out from every nook, cranny and corner to describe the channeled, or mediumistic communications they've had with Michael Jackson! Many world famous psychics, and some "normal" everyday people like you and I have had incredibly detailed, very elaborate and amazingly rich purported conversations with Michael, and the amazing thing is his message has been pretty consistently clear.
Electromagnetic Field Meters or known as EMF meters are another piece of equipment that is used for detecting changes in the environment such as changes in the electromagnetic field. These changes are said to occur due to the presence of ghosts or manifestations. They are also great for finding hidden wires or leaky microwave ovens. It is a must piece of equipment in any professional investigation.
It is not all that unusual to come across cold spots and you want to be able to eliminate any possibilities that it is coming from a draft or open window or leaky door. To find these you would want to invest in a infrared thermometer.
And examples include both the OBVIOUS....and the esoteric! Did you know, for example, that Harry Houdini spent his latter years trying to "debunk" psychic medium ship? But when he died....some of the greatest messages from the afterlife apparently came from him!
With ghost hunting groups getting large and more professional in nature it is not uncommon for those investigating a haunting to have night vision goggles. More elaborate equipment could be thermal imaging cameras and these are often used by fire departments and can sometimes be found as surplus equipment when looking around online. Thermal imaging equipment does not come cheap!
But there are more variations on this theme. In a completely different approach, Wonder Woman (as portrayed by the beautiful Lynda Carter) did battle with a TK. In this case, the man’s body was old, crippled and diseased, but his mind remained sharp and intelligence. Using this amazing intellect, he had his brain and one eye (I suppose so he could see? Gross) removed and placed in a life support tank. Once relieved of the burden of concentrating on bodily functions, the brain was free to develop powers that had been subdued by the every grind of regulating pulse and breathing, data processing and consciousness.
In conclusion, it is apparent to develop TK or any other psionic power, it is best to be born with them. When they finally manifest themselves, one should be in a happy home life (if that is possible with raging hormones) with positive role models to guide them when puberty hits
