The Extended Mind: Recent Experimental Evidence (1:37:43)

Dean Radin, Marilyn Schlitz, Gary Schwartz, Rupert Sheldrake, Charles Tart, Larry Dossey, Stephan Schwartz, Roger Nelson, Edgar Mitchell, Harold Puthoff, and others (Renée Scheltema, Director)
Filmmaker Renée Scheltema explores the evidence behind five areas of consciousness research: telepathy, clairvoyance, precognition, psychokinesis, and remote healing. The film's format is that of Scheltema's personal quest for understanding, which leads to interviews with some of the pioneer researchers of these areas.

Rupert Sheldrake, The Perrott-Warrick Lecture at Trinity College, Cambridge University
Dr Rupert Sheldrake argues that telepathy is a normal means of communication among members of animal groups, and is often shown by domesticated animals like dogs and cats in their responses to their owners' thoughts and intentions. Human telepathy follows similar principles, and is continuing to evolve in connection with modern communications systems like telephones and emails. Telepathy is normal, not paranormal.
