which sixth sense would you want and why? There is telepathy(where you can communicate and read others thoughts),empathy(where you feel others emotions), telekenisis(where the mind can influence/move matter),or precognition and premonition, the ability to knowledgeably or emotionally predict the future. Which would you want and why?

hi there celticeagle. i prefer telekinesis. so that i will have that power to influence people to work for a better world and to put things in proper order. well, it will be really a tough job. but that is my greatest dream - a better world and things in proper places. and i will do my all to make that thing happen. big responsibility eh..let's just say (and may i borrow petter parker, a.k.a spiderman's words) with great power, comes greater responsibility.

Big responsibility! Petter Parker? Great power does bring with it great responsibility. That is for sure.

Well there are many times I would not want to be able to read people's minds especially the times they are feeling negative towards me, just like I would not want someone to be able to read mine. But to be able to emotionally be able to read people sometimes would be nice. Especially to know where they are coming from when they are treating everyone Bad. Wondering if everything is going Good in their life for sure.

I think it would be great to be able to read other's minds. Body language is interesting as well.

In the Hindu Yogic treatise written by Sage and Yoga Guru Patanjali thousands of years ago,it is said that when the yogi reaches perfection and even before when in an advanced stage, he acquires the 8 Siddhis or spiritual yogic powers some of which you have mentioned in your post.Other powers include the ability to grow large or very small, the ability to be invisible, the ability to fly in the air like a bird,to name a few.Of course i would like to acquire all these powers without excluding any of them and then use them for the benefit and good of mankind.This is what India`s great sages did in ancient times.they acquired all these spiritual powers by doing extremely hard spiritual practices and techniqes and then used them for helping mankind.When a yogi reaches perfection all these powers come naturally to him and miracles take place all around him many times even without his knowledge.The spiritual powers become his slaves and not vice versa.

Slave of the spiritual? How odd. You didn't answer the question.

I did not answer your question because it is not just one but all the spiritual powers that i have written about, i would like to have.I am practising a secret yogic technique which can give me these powers but i have to work hard,diligently and regularly to acquire them.Even after getting them one has to be very careful in using them since one can get carried away and misuse them for ones selfish ends and that is what i meant as becoming a slave to these powers.Hope you understand.

It might help to know or to have the powers but I would be more stressed then I think. Ugh!

I think I'd like deep telepathy, as I'd like to know all the ins and outs of what people are thinking, in great detail. Not just what they are thinking about me, but about things in general as I'd like to know what it feels like to be inside of their heads, what it feels like to actually BE that person.

I think having telepathy and telekinesis is pretty interesting. Will you not feel good when you are able to read the mind of others without them knowing? Also, moving things with the use of mind is really, really cool. That would make me feel like a real superhero!
Having premonition is not at all cool! Life would be boring if you already know what's ahead.

Premonition could have its draw backs. But what if you could help the world?

That's true but it is a nice dream to have. And to better yourself and your situation.

as what i know from other sources we have around 10th senses.....
Telekinesis is my choice because i want to use it as a self-defense or maybe self-offense.... but when it comes to power, the most important power that i want is the ability to be invisible to the naked eye of the public.....

Yes, invisibility would be a very useful sense or power to have. Thank you for your input.

I would have to say telepathy, I want to know what people are thinking when I am talking to them especially if it is a guy I am interesting in. I would want to know exactly what it is he thinks of me. I thnk that will be cool.

Hello celti,
Telepathy has not happened too often, enpathy, a little bit, telekenisis, no and what is left is premonition.
Out of sixth senses I have premonition and would like to have more. Actually I know beforehand if or not my work would be done today. And the day I have strong feeling of premonition I take extra care of everything I undertake.
Just one example. I did my post graduation in Pune University that is in the state of Maharashtra and I live in Assam. After our final exams were over we all returned home and were waiting for the result. My subject was English that included history of English literature, English Language and Literature Teaching, Linguistics and a few others.
My first part of examination was not satisfactory and therefore I had to study hard and I fared well in the second year term.
Since I wanted ti be a College teacher I needed to have.scored at least 55% of the total marks.
It was time for announcement of the result. My mother would get up early morning. As I was still sleeping she told a bit loudly that I had mails. Took them from her and put under the pillow to read them later. But my sixth sense told that one of those mails could be about my result.
I jumped up and saw one letter sent by my friend at Pune. I carefully opened the letter and wow I passed with more than required marks for a college teacher.
This is how I know the possible events of the future.

I'd prefer telekinesis, for I sure love to make myself fly!!! and sure, it could be helpful and nice to know what other's are thinking or feeling or predict and look into the past but it can be rather scary too don't you think?? If you come across people who are psychopaths, or places where murder would take or have taken place at and there are just way too many scums in this world that I don't want to feel their negative and skewed emotions or see their thoughts!!!!
So, telekinesis I think is the best choice

Telekeinesis is a good choice but, did you realize that you could learn to have control over the telepathy?

i would like to have all of them because they all will make my life more easy,but if i had to choose only once then it would be telepathy because with it i will be able to keep in touch with all whom i want to contact.it is necessary when someone is away from me,you will say mobile can do this task for me then why it is necessary then i would like to tell you that mobile can not help us every time it happens many time that it can not work like network problem battery problem and many more like that that time this will be helpful.

The mobile cannot help us? Battery problem? Not sure I understand.

I would choose telepathy because i would know what other people thinks. I can understand other people better and if i can write answers all the time. But there are disadvantages like you cant have a peace of mind when you are with someone. You have to be really alone so you can rest your mind and not think about what other people thinks. Its hard enough that you have a pile of things to do in your head but still the idea of not be confused of what other people might be thinking.. priceless. :)

It would be priceless. I would also have someone teach me how to use it appropriately.
