I have experienced "telepathy" which I found disconcerting.

However I have tried to rationalise the sensation and I came up with this.

Before we could communicate verbally we MAY have had further senses than we one's we acknowledge today, sight, sound, vision, taste, and touch.

Is it possible that before we learned to communicate by these methods we had further abilities that because we no longer use them have deteriorated to the point that they only become apparent on rare occasions.
