"Third eye", "intuition" - this is how they call the ability to subtly feel and foresee the development of events, predict, see prophetic dreams, hear "voices" and much more. Scientists still cannot agree on how the sixth sense works and where its source is located in the body.

Sixth sense - what is it?

Many people have noticed strange things behind them more than once, when something inside told them what to do and the decision turned out to be correct. People with developed intuition rent tickets for a plane that crashes later, foresee the illness of loved ones, and some are able to see people through and through in the literal sense of the word. The sixth sense is any sense that is in addition to the basic five – touch, hearing, sight, smell and taste. It can be called the ability to communicate with one's own soul.

Someone consciously develops a sixth sense in himself by doing spiritual practices, meditating and clearing his mind, while for someone this gift is given from above for merits in past lives or is inherited. More and more scientists are studying this phenomenon, and there are those who consider the discovery of the sixth sense gene a scientifically proven fact. The American pediatric neurologist K. Benneman called this term the ability of a person to sense the position of body parts in space relative to each other.

Is there a sixth sense?

There is no longer any doubt about this, because until recently all kinds of clairvoyants and psychics acted underground, now they are officially recruited to help the investigative departments to catch criminals and search for missing people. The services of the famous Juna and Vanga were once used by the rulers of different countries and listened to their advice.

The sixth sense in humans is the subject of study by scientists working with electromagnetic radiation. Professor of Moscow State University Yu. Pytiev found that the length of electromagnetic waves significantly affects the clarity of the picture, "visible" without the participation of the organs of vision of his experimental girl Nadia. And what is the phenomenon of the children of the school of V. Bronnikov, who, with a bandage over their eyes, see the colors of the objects shown to them.

What is a person's sixth sense?

It is believed that the sixth sense, which is heightened in women, as well as in children under 7 years old, is the result of the work of the pineal gland, located almost in the center of the skull above the end of the spinal column. In young children, it is more than in adults, and in women it is more than in men. The sixth sense in women is more developed because they are more emotional, impulsive, prone to quick mood swings and prophetic intuitions. Many cases have been recorded in the world when children communicated, played with someone invisible, recalled events from their own.

How to open the sixth sense?

There are many practices that make it possible to gain a "third eye". So the H. Silva program has won a lot of followers who are striving to learn how to control memory, find a non-standard way out of difficult situations, etc. The sixth sense, intuition or gift can be opened to those who meditate a lot, do yoga and other spiritual practices. Many believers note that God leads them through life and helps them, suggesting what to do in this or that case.

Sixth sense - how to develop it?

There are many exercises that will help open the "third eye". Here they are:

1. Take any recipe for a dish, seeing only its name, and try to describe it, and then compare the result.
2. Toss a coin up, guessing what will fall out: “heads” or “tails”. This forms the sixth sense. Those who wish to know can be recommended to “read people”, guessing their profession, age, mood, etc.
3. Remember dreams and try to connect them with the events that followed them.
4. Those who are interested in how to develop a sixth sense may be advised to learn to write with both hands.
5. Such an exercise trains intuition well: blindfold, circle around its axis, and then guess in which direction and how far the objects in the room are located.

The five senses allow us to perceive the world around us and respond in the most appropriate way. The eyes are responsible for sight, the ears are responsible for hearing, the nose is responsible for smell, the tongue is responsible for taste, and the skin is responsible for touch. Thanks to them, we receive information about our environment, which is analyzed and interpreted by the brain. Usually our reaction is to prolong pleasant sensations or to stop unpleasant ones.

Vision

Of all the senses available to us, we most often use vision. We can see thanks to many organs: light rays pass through the pupil (hole), the cornea (transparent membrane), then through the lens (an organ that looks like a lens), after which an inverted image appears on the retina of the eye (a thin membrane in the eyeball). The image is converted into a nerve signal by the receptors lining the retina, the rods and cones, and transmitted to the brain via the optic nerve. The brain recognizes the nerve impulse as an image, flips it in the right direction and perceives it in three-dimensional form.

Hearing

According to scientists, hearing is the second most commonly used sense. Sounds (air vibrations) travel through the ear canal to the eardrum and cause it to vibrate. Then they pass through the window of the vestibule - a hole closed with a thin film, and the cochlea filled with a liquid tube, while irritating the auditory cells. These cells convert vibrations into nerve signals that are sent to the brain. The brain recognizes these signals as sounds, determining their volume level and pitch.

Touch

Millions of receptors located on the surface of the skin and in its tissues recognize touch, pressure or pain, then send the appropriate signals to the spinal cord and brain. The brain analyzes and decodes these signals, translating them into sensations - pleasant, neutral or unpleasant.

Smell

We are able to distinguish up to ten thousand smells, some of which (poisonous gases, smoke) alert us to imminent danger. Cells located in the nasal cavity detect the molecules that are the source of the smell, then send the appropriate nerve impulses to the brain. The brain recognizes these odors, which can be pleasant or unpleasant. Scientists have identified seven main odors: aromatic (camphor), ethereal, fragrant (floral), ambrosial (the smell of musk - a substance of animal origin used in perfumery), repulsive (putrefactive), garlic (sulphurous) and, finally, the smell of burning. The sense of smell is often called the sense of memory: indeed, the smell can remind you of a very old event.

Taste

Less developed than the sense of smell, the sense of taste reports the quality and taste of food and liquids consumed. Taste cells, located on the taste buds - small tubercles on the tongue, detect flavors and transmit the appropriate nerve impulses to the brain. The brain analyzes and identifies the nature of the taste.

How do we taste food?

The sense of taste is not enough to appreciate food, and the sense of smell also plays a very important role. The nasal cavity contains two olfactory regions that are sensitive to odors. When we eat, the smell of the food reaches these areas that "determine" whether the food is tasty or not.

In everyday life, as well as in literature, it is accepted that a person has five senses. This follows from the phrase - "caught with some kind of sixth sense." Or from other, but similar in content phrases. The conclusion is clear - a person has five senses. And no more. By sixth sense we mean intuition.

The astronauts object: the sense of balance is an equivalent, equal feeling, we just do not notice its “work”. And intuition then becomes the seventh sense.
The question is: is this a complete list? Or, as always, did it ever occur to anyone to name ALL the feelings of a person in one list?

We proceed from the assumption that, according to Darwin, man belongs to the animal species, is simply at the highest stage of development. But with a person there is something that official science rejects. And this “something” visibly exerts its influence on the behavioral qualities of a person. And this “something” stands above the person, above the person. This “something” is the human soul.

FOLLOWING NOTES
not included in any of the lists.
(Here's the point: the number of sensual groups, lists in the future can be increased.)

1. For a harmonious family, it is necessary to have feelings of fidelity, devotion and reliability.
By the way, maybe fidelity, devotion and reliability do not belong to the category of feelings? Maybe these qualities, these epithets from the field of relationships?

2. Confidence (feeling number 6 on the list of spiritual feelings) - as a mirror image of loyalty and devotion. And confidence comes from within. Confidence is a FEELING.
And because the family is not based on fidelity (reverse action), but on confidence (feeling).

2- group of feelings: feelings, due to the functional characteristics of the organs of perception.

3rd and 4th groups of feelings: feelings due to the presence of the soul.

********************************************

NOTE: two human feelings (No. 7 and No. 7) are not defined, this question still needs to be thought about.

The sixth sense is our ability to perceive the subtle or invisible world of angels, ghosts, Heaven, Hell, etc. It also includes our ability to understand the subtle causal relationship between different events that beyond understanding understanding of the mind. Extrasensory perception (ESP), clairvoyance, premonition and intuition are synonymous with the sixth sense (subtle perception ability). On this website, the words sixth sense, ESP, and subtle perception are used interchangeably.

1. How can we perceive and understand the invisible world?

As defined by SSRF, the "subtle world" (subtle dimension) is the world beyond the understanding of the five senses, the mind, and the mind. The subtle world means the invisible world of angels, ghosts, paradise, etc., which we can only perceive with our sixth sense.

We perceive the gross material (visible) world with our five physical senses (i.e. sight, hearing, smell, touch and taste), our mind (our emotions), and our intellect (the ability to make decisions). When it comes to the invisible (subtle) world, we perceive it with five subtle senses, subtle mind and subtle intellect (they are also called the sixth sense). When the sixth sense is developed or activated, it helps us to perceive the subtle world or subtle space. The experience of perceiving the subtle world is also called "spiritual experience".

		spiritual experience
What did it feel like?	The woman smelled the scent of roses from a bouquet of roses.	The woman smelled sandalwood in the absence of any sandalwood.
Source	Seen from a rough measurement	Invisible even from the subtle dimension
How was it perceived	Five sense organs, mind and intellect. In this example, this was perceived by the organ of charm, i.e. nose.	Sixth sense, i.e. through the subtle senses (the five subtle senses, the subtle mind, and the subtle intellect). In this example, it was perceived by the subtle organ of charm.

In the picture above, we see one woman smelling roses. This will not represent a spiritual experience, as there is a specific source of rose fragrance, i.e. bouquet of roses. In another painting, we see a woman who does not inhale the scent of roses. She reflects on the beginning of her working day. Suddenly, and for no apparent reason, she smells a strong scent of sandalwood. She initially dismisses thoughts of it as she can't see where the scent is coming from and continues to think about her work day. However, the fragrance follows her to her workplace and stays with her throughout the morning. She asks other people if they smell the scent, but no one smells it. This event will represent a spiritual experience. In this case, this woman actually perceived the fragrance coming from the subtle space. She sensed the fragrance through her subtle charm organ. The ability to perceive or sense subtle space through the five subtle senses, subtle mind, and subtle intellect is also called the sixth sense.

2. Subtle perception through the subtle senses

Spiritual level of a person (%)	5 subtle feelings	Subtle mind and subtle intellect

As can be seen from the table above, the maximum level of perception by the subtle senses is reached at the spiritual level of 70%. Consequently, a further increase in the spiritual level is not accompanied by an increase in the perception of the subtle by the five senses. However, the subtle mind and subtle intellect continue to tune in more and more to the Universal Mind and Universal Intellect until reaching the spiritual level of 100%. The table below shows the minimum required to perceive through each of the five subtle senses if the person's sixth sense was purely a function of the spiritual level. For example, you can perceive subtle odors by 40%.

This diagram serves as an explanation direct connection between spiritual level and sixth sense. However, it is important to note the following:

• If a person has experienced a subtle sense of smell, this does not necessarily mean that he (or she) has reached the spiritual level of 40%. Most likely, we are talking about an instant or temporary increase in the spiritual level (or the ability to subtle perception), due to intensive spiritual practice (for example, chanting the Name of God, or spending time in the company of the Saints, etc.)
• Other factors may also contribute to this experience. For example, if ghosts (demons, devils, negative energies, etc.) want a person to be frightened by smelling urine around the house, they can use their spiritual energy to make it happen. As a result, the person who is being attacked may smell a subtle scent without the need to raise one's spiritual level.
• It also does not mean that all people at the 40% spiritual level necessarily perceive subtle odors. a person is a collection of many properties: the sixth sense is just one among them. See article about.
• This does not mean that all these people can perceive up to 100% of all available subtle odor options, and it also does not mean that they can perceive them all the time and at any time.
• This also does not mean that a person at a spiritual level of 40% or higher necessarily perceives subtle odors. A person can reach Holiness (i.e. the spiritual level of 70%) without ever perceiving anything with the five subtle senses. One of the reasons for this may be that this person has already had this experience in a past life, and he no longer needs this experience. However, all Saints have a sixth sense, associated with a subtle mind and intellect.

You can also see from the diagram above that the ability to perceive through the subtle senses of touch and hearing is acquired only at higher spiritual levels. The reason for this is that they are the subtlest of the five subtle senses.

5. Sixth Sense (ESP) and Gender

As a rule, women have a stronger sixth sense compared to men. Extrasensory perception (ESP) comes more naturally to women, and they are the most intuitive. One of the main reasons for this is that men rely more on the intellect and use the arguments of reason more often.

6. Spiritual experiencesssubtle mind and subtle intellect

Sometimes, a person experiences a strange feeling of returning home at the sight of a completely unfamiliar house or a premonition of impending disaster. He can also feel endless love for a person who should not be to his liking. These are all experiences of the subtle mind. We cannot understand what caused these feelings. Sometimes we hear about people who receive information from the subtle dimension and who communicate with beings from the subtle worlds. This phenomenon will be explained in more detail in the paragraphs below.

6.1 How do people perceive this information?

As a rule, people who receive knowledge from the subtle dimension receive it in three ways:

• they let the subtle being use their hand to write a message (known as automatic writing)
• through a vision in which they see words or paragraphs in front of their eyes
• through thoughts

Among the above methods, the most subtle is to receive an answer through thoughts.

6.2 Source of knowledge

People who receive knowledge from the subtle dimension receive it either:

• automatically, through their ability to break through into the Universal Mind or Intellect
• from subtle beings, in response to specific questions. They can receive this information with the help of the sixth sense through the subtle mind and intellect.

In both cases, a person understands the subtle dimension, however, only a spiritually developed person can distinguish if knowledge was obtained in the first or second way. In most cases, a person communicates with subtle bodies from different subtle zones, for example, from Purgatory or Hell zones. Only in rare cases, a person receives knowledge from the Deities or from God, that is, from the Universal Mind and Intellect.

The type and quality (level) of the information received depends on spiritual level the person receiving it.

Information from inferior sources

Absolute knowledge, also known as Divine knowledge, is knowledge that is perfect and absolutely authentic. It either does not change or is the highest Truth.

The information received from subtle bodies from such lower zones as Purgatory or Hell zones is predominantly earthly in nature and is only relevant for a certain region of the earth, for a short period of time. An example of this is getting information about marriage prospects or about getting a job. Which political party will win the elections in this or that country is also an example of this kind of knowledge received from the subtle bodies of the lower level from the subtle dimension.

The information received by Nostradamus is an example of this category. Nostradamus himself was at the spiritual level of 50% and received knowledge from the subtle body at the spiritual level of 40%. Many mediums fall into this category of acquiring knowledge.

Knowledge from higher sources

The whole Universe consists of 14 zones - 7 positive and 7 negative. Our earth is the only gross (physical) zone, and all other zones are subtle in nature. Paradise is just one of the positive subtle zones where we can go after death.

Knowledge received from the subtle bodies of the higher zones ( mahalok or higher) are of a spiritual nature. This knowledge is gradually becoming more and more universally needed and has been of great importance throughout the centuries. Receiving Divine knowledge from the Universal Mind and the Universal Intelligence (i.e. from the Mind and aspects of the Divine Intelligence) is of the highest importance. As shown in the picture above, only the Saints can receive such knowledge. An example of this is the knowledge in the Holy Vedas, which was received by the Saints of ancient India.

In order to correctly determine the source or accuracy of knowledge, one must have a very high spiritual level, i. you need to be Holy at 90% or higher.

7.3 How do you know if the acquired knowledge comes from an external source or from your own subconscious thoughts?

There are several pointers to the conclusion that knowledge comes from an external source and not from one's own imagination.

• When content knowledge go beyond the knowledge of the receiver. For example, one seeker of God who barely graduated from high school nevertheless receives complex machine diagrams.
• Another pointer is body of knowledge. One seeker from the Spiritual Research Foundation (SSRF) has been receiving Divine knowledge from the subtle world since October 28, 2003. Every day, she receives knowledge placed on 15-20 pages of A4 paper. At the moment, this spiritual knowledge is being analyzed and cataloged for the benefit of mankind.

7.4 Factors that decide who gains knowledge through the subtle intellect

There is a combination of factors that decides who will receive knowledge from the subtle world. The spiritual level of a person is one of the key factors that decide who will receive knowledge from the subtle world. Apart from the spiritual level, there are other factors that decide who will have higher spiritual experiences (such as gaining knowledge):

• Motivation and intense human desire
• Necessity for the fulfillment of God's mission
• Determination and blessing of the Guru (spiritual teacher at a spiritual level of 70% and above)
• human

It should be noted that if a person at a higher spiritual level is interested in acquiring knowledge of a lower nature, for example, about everyday events on Earth, then despite the fact that he is able to receive knowledge from subtle bodies of a higher level, he will receive such knowledge from subtle bodies of a more low level. On the other hand, if a person at a relatively lower spiritual level (for example, at the level of 50%) is highly motivated to study the higher principles of spiritual science, then he will receive knowledge from the higher subtle bodies or from the subtle bodies of the higher worlds, especially if he has been blessed by a Guru. .

7.5 Sixth sense, premonitions, and time and space

Sometimes, people have premonitions about what is going to happen, or some sort of intuitive feeling about events that have previously happened. This is possible in two ways:

1. With the help of subtle bodies: if subtle bodies put this premonition (this information) into the subconscious mind of these people. In most cases, these subtle bodies or subtle beings are ghosts from Purgatory or from the Hell zones. In some cases, these subtle bodies have the ability to see through time. If they do not have this ability themselves, then they get this information from higher-level ghosts, such as subtle sorcerers, who have this ability.
2. Receiving this information from the Universal Mind and Intellect: e There are seven layers of Universal Mind and Intelligence. Depending on the level of his sixth sense, a person will be able to break through either the lower or the higher thin layer of the Universal Mind and Intellect.

In almost all cases, premonition (warning about the future), clairvoyance (receiving information from somewhere far away), and foresight (receiving information from the distant future) are from subtle bodies, that is, these gifts are not related to the ability of the person himself to receive information. from the Universal Mind and Intelligence. The harm that subtle bodies can do is explained in the next section.

7.6 Accuracy of knowledge received from the subtle world

As a rule, a person receives knowledge from subtle bodies of equal spiritual level. The accuracy and quality of knowledge also corresponds to the spiritual level. To understand this concept, imagine a scale between 0 and 100% with no knowledge at the 0% level. The lowest knowledge that the intellect can understand is at the 1% level, and what is available from the Universal Intellect is at the 100% level.

• As a rule, a person at the spiritual level of 40% receives information from the subtle body of the corresponding spiritual level, i.e. 40%, however, the accuracy of this information is also at the level of 40% and the quality of knowledge is 40%.
• Before reaching the spiritual level of 70%, knowledge is most likely from ghosts (demons, devils, negative energies, etc.) and therefore, are accompanied by a certain amount of black energy. Those who do not know about the mechanisms for obtaining knowledge may not have an idea about this aspect and therefore, may blindly and directly believe in all the knowledge received. There is a high probability, if knowledge is obtained through subtle bodies, that it is partially or completely incorrect. Subtle bodies usually give some correct information first in order to gain trust. After gaining trust, they begin to give varying degrees of false or misleading information. Another important factor to consider is that information received from subtle bodies is always shrouded in black energy. Therefore, it adversely affects the receiver in various ways (for example: the receiver may experience serious health problems, psychological weakness, clouded mind, etc.). But this process is so gradual that it goes unnoticed by the person himself, his family and his friends. If this process of receiving information continues for a long time, this person gradually becomes truly a puppet in the hands of the subtle body, and then the subtle body can use this person in various ways to advance its interests.
• However, after a person reaches a spiritual level of 70%, he receives knowledge from positive subtle bodies, such as Saints and Sages from the higher worlds above Paradise. This person can also gain knowledge through the Universal Mind and Intellect, and this knowledge is not accompanied by black energy.
• After reaching the spiritual level of 70%, a person begins to receive Absolute Knowledge from the Universal Mind and Intellect.

There are so many levels of understanding of the negative aspect of the subtle dimension (eg ghosts, demonic possession, and being attacked by ghosts). Quite often, what people are able to experience is just the tip of the iceberg. Only at a spiritual level above 90%, a person acquires the ability to perceive the entire spectrum of the subtle dimension.

Please see the article about the extent of our ability perceive paranormal phenomena with a sixth sense.

8. Sixth Sense Abuse (ESP)

The sixth sense should only be used for the realization of God, i.e. for the highest goal of spiritual development. From a purely spiritual point of view, it is considered abuse when the sixth sense is used for something else, such as peaceful affairs. In other words, if a psychic uses their psychic abilities to find out if a particular person will get married or get a job, then this is considered abuse from a spiritual point of view.

When a psychic abuses the sixth sense (ESP), two things happen over time:

1. They lose their ability. This usually occurs over a 30 year period.
2. They become targets for stronger subtle sorcerers. In the beginning, subtle sorcerers give psychics some correct information in order to inspire confidence. However, they then mislead these people and their investigators. In such cases, the psychic abilities of these people persist for a longer period, and it may even seem that these abilities are gradually improving. However, these psychic abilities are not manifested due to the piety of the psychics themselves, but because of the subtle sorcerer who guides the psychic. In such cases, this rare gift of psychic abilities, which this person could use for God realization, is wasted on less important things.

Areas of the brain where information from certain sense organs is processed.

Cones that sense color and rods that sense light and dark in the retina.

The answer to this question can be very different. Conservatives, following Aristotle, speak of five senses - hearing, touch, sight, smell and taste. Poets insist on the sixth, which includes either a sense of beauty, or intuition, or something else. These are non-specialists. But physiologists and physicians also do not agree with each other. The most cautious of them now count only three feelings in a person, the most radical - 33.

Indeed, we often use feelings that are not included in the list of Aristotle. Does seeing, hearing, or any of the other five senses help you perform a common neurological test where the doctor asks you to close your eyes and touch the tip of your nose with one finger or the other? And which of the five feelings torment you while pitching at sea? What sense allows you to determine if the tea in the glass is too hot?

So how many feelings does a person have? See how to count.

We can say that there are only three senses: chemical (smell and taste), mechanical (hearing and touch) and light (sight). The reaction of the corresponding sense organs is based on different physical and chemical mechanisms. But even these three feelings can be classified in more detail. For example, taste actually includes five senses: sweet, salty, sour, bitter, and umami (the Japanese word for the taste of monosodium glutamate, a condiment that is indispensable in concentrated soups). A few years ago, scientists discovered that there are separate receptors on the tongue for the taste of umami. French physiologists have recently found receptors that respond to the taste of fat, and they are not only on the tongue, but also in the small intestine (no wonder a good portion of castor bean oil, known colloquially as castor oil, penetrates us to the very intestines). So a person has six senses of taste.

Vision can be considered as one sense - the sensation of light, as two - light and color, or as four - light and primary colors: red, green and blue. Frogs and some other animals have separate receptors in the retina of their eyes that react to movement in the field of vision - another sense (humans, as far as we know, do not have such receptors).

Let's take a rumor. Is it one sense or several hundred, according to the number of hair cells in the inner ear, each of which responds to a different frequency of oscillation? It is also interesting that as a result of aging or certain diseases, a person may lose the perception of certain frequencies, while the rest will be heard as before.

As for the sense of smell, at least 2000 types of receptors are involved in it. Among them there are very specialized ones, for example, reacting to the smell of the sea, to the smell of lilies of the valley. Should these sensations be considered together, as a single sense of smell, or separately?

We are all able to feel the temperature of surrounding objects, the degree of bending of the limbs in the joints (which allows us to quite accurately find the tip of the nose with our eyes closed), we feel imbalance (which leads to seasickness when rolling). We experience a feeling of an empty stomach or a full bladder. Is it possible to consider as feelings those sensations that do not reach consciousness, since there is simply no need for this? For example, a person has a sensor that senses the pH of the cerebrospinal fluid, but this parameter is adjusted without the participation of consciousness.

Perhaps the list should also include a sense of time. Although few of us can tell what time it is without a watch with great accuracy, many of us are quite confident in evaluating the elapsed periods of time, and all have internal biorhythms.

Even conservatives agree that in addition to the classic five people have a sense of pain. And the radicals distinguish three pain sensations: skin, bodily (pain in the joints, bones and spine) and visceral (pain in the insides).

Now most scientists recognize the existence of 21 feelings in humans. The upper limit has not yet been set.
