Precognition – A Basic Understanding
The term precognition can be divided into two parts of \’pre\’ and \’cognition\’ which jointly means acquiring knowledge prior to its happening. That is, if a person can predict something which occurs in reality later, he/she is said to possess the psychic power of precognition. Precognition is said to be the most commonly found psychic power in the world.
Tracing the patterns of precognitive occurrences, most of the times it is seen to happen a day or two prior to the actual incident, but there has been many instances where precognition has taken place years before. Moreover, almost all the times it happens in relation to something negative and emotionally shocking like that of knowing about someone dying, a loved one being ill or some natural disaster.
Man has forever been interested in precognition. Starting from the ancient prophets to modern astrologers, all are involved in the process of predicting the future which man so desperately want to know.
Many a times the term precognition is used synonymously or is confused with the concepts of premonition or prophecy. It should be remembered that precognition involves knowing about a future event while premonition refers to sensing or feeling that something is going to happen. Prophecy on the other hand can be stated to be a subset of precognition. Thus, while all prophecies can be termed precognition, all precognitions are not prophecies.
If you have experienced knowing about something or having a sudden vision or a dream which went on to happen in reality or even smaller things like being able to state who is going to call, or the outcome of a match and you\’ve secretly pondered whether you have the psychic power of precognition or not, you can test yourself to be sure once and for all. One of the oldest tests of precognition is that of the Zener Cards which you can also avail online.
Zener Card Test basically comprise of a deck of card each having a specific symbol on them like a square, round, etc. A card is removed from the deck and you are asked to predict what symbol the card contained. This goes on till one by one the entire deck gets depleted. Based on the algorithms created by Dr. Rhine along with Karl Zener, the two creators of this test, your score is determined reflecting whether you have \’no ability\’, \’some ability\’, \’significant ability\’ or \’very significant ability\’ of precognition.
In case you have come to know about your precognition abilities and want to develop it further, a good thing is to start with small self practicing techniques in day to day activities. Thus you can start practicing by attempting to predict the outcome of rolling a die, a cricket match, someone\’s examination, etc.
In case you want your ability to improve and develop to such a level that you can control it and use it when required, the techniques of meditation and trance can be used to induce precognitive knowledge. A deep trance or a dazed condition where all peripheral perceptions cease, facilitates the mind to focus in the direction of using your psychic ability of precognition. Meditation increases ones control on the sub conscious mind and develops any kind of extra sensory perceptions further.
It can be concluded by saying that precognition is an ability that only a few gifted people are born with. It must never be considered a curse and must be developed and used for the betterment of others.
