We've been told we only have five senses. Maybe six, if you count intuition. But history, science, and countless ""impossible"" stories suggest otherwise.
For centuries, shamans, monks, soldiers, and ordinary people have reported glimpses of hidden faculties: gut feelings that save lives, dreams that predict disasters, healers who calm pain, and uncanny connections that defy distance. Modern science dismisses most of this, yet still admits to silent senses like balance, proprioception, and interoception. Meanwhile, governments have quietly funded experiments into telepathy, remote viewing, and even mind-over-matter.
So which is it? Superstition? Coincidence? Or proof that humans carry a forgotten power - a seventh sense?
In this provocative book, Heinrich Wilson digs into:
Cold War psychic research and secret military projects
Telepathy, empathy, and the strange science of shared feelings
Placebo, nocebo, and the power of belief to heal or harm
Telekinesis experiments, folklore, and the blurred line between mind and matter
The hidden prison of distraction, consumerism, and ridicule designed to keep us blind
The risks of awakening - fraud, manipulation, and instability - and the promise of rediscovery
The seventh sense won't turn you into a superhero. But it may explain why you sometimes ""just know,"" why dreams sometimes come true, and why our world is built to keep those whispers silent.
The question isn't whether it exists. The question is whether you're willing to notice.
