I found this article interesting and wanted to share it with everyone!! Wasn't sure how on topic it was so I decided to post here...

Psychiatrist's Research Finds You Really Can Feel a Person's Stare....

Paper by Dr. Colin A. Ross Explains How to Measure the Eye's Electromagnetic Energy

DALLAS, TX--(Marketwire - 04/05/10) - Noted psychiatrist and author Colin A. Ross, M.D., has published experimental data that supports his scientific hypothesis that the eyes emit energy that can be captured and measured. Dr. Ross' paper, "The Electrophysiological Basis of Evil Eye Belief," is published in the current issue of Anthropology of Consciousness, a journal of the American Anthropological Association. The full paper is available at

http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/cgi-bin/fulltext/ 123310535/PDFSTART.

Although nearly everyone has experienced the sense of being stared at only to find that a person or animal really was looking, Western science has long rejected that the human eye can emit any form of energy. Dr. Ross says his findings move "human ocular extramission," which he also refers to as an "eyebeam," from the realm of superstition to science.

"We used our patent pending Electromagnetic Beam Detection System, which includes modified EEG neurofeedback equipment, to prove that the human eye emits an electromagnetic signal that can be measured scientifically," said Dr. Ross. "I hope that future experiments will determine why energy emitted from the eye is so strong and whether it can be harnessed through focused attention."

A series of videos in which Dr. Ross discusses the paper can be viewed at

Dr. Ross has been researching a new science and medicine focused on the human body's electromagnetic field, which he detailed in his 2009 book, Human Energy Fields (ISBN-13: 978-0-9821851-0-0).

Dr. Ross previously made headlines by applying to the $1 Million Dollar Paranormal Challenge administered by the James Randi Educational Foundation (JREF) (http://www.randi.org/). Although Dr. Ross can prove that his eyebeam can make a tone sound out of a computer, JREF insists that no energy can be emitted from the eyes and mocked Dr. Ross with its Pigasus Award. JREF has not responded to Dr. Ross' test protocol.

Dr. Ross is the author of 140 papers in professional journals and 23 books. He has lectured widely in North America, Europe, China, New Zealand and Australia, has reviewed for many different psychiatry journals, and received a number of research grants. His writing also includes short stories, poems, aphorisms, plays and essays on a wide range of topics. For more information about Dr. Ross and the Colin A.

Yes, I often start looking at the person prior to the point they start to stare, which always has the same result, they lift their eyebrows,,,,,,,,,,curious,,,,,,,,,,maybe.

I get this all the time, and almost always can direct my gaze back at exactly who it was that was staring. It's bizarre, not to mention irritating at times. When no one's there, I know it's a ghost, which is even weirder! LOL Wink

Just because it's impossible doesn't mean it can't happen.

I'm not a doc, so anything I say is my opinion only. Nothing I say is meant as offense, I offer what I can as help. I believe in educating myself on all my medical issues and being my own advocate, for no one else with do that on my behalf. I recommend we all do the same!

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Perhaps I truly am insane for expecting these docs to listen to me when I say the same things repeatedly to no avail? LOL. I am tired of seeking out new docs and getting the same result time and again...Forgive me if I seem bitter some days.

When it's a spirit, I do not turn my head at first, I see them in my mind, spaceless, and just know their local, then turn to talk to them mentally or outloud.

I'm not at the level you all are but I can feel a person's stare usually or sense someone around. I have very sensitive hearing. I could hear a pin drop at night and I can't be in loud crowded environments because the noise is too overstimulating for me.

Having the courage to walk step by step each day.

May the road rise up to meet you
May the wind always be on your back.
May the sun lie warm upon your face.
And until we meet again,
May the Lord hold you
In the hollow of His hand.

I'm sooooo like that, too. I can hear things that no one else hears--and it's definitely audible noises, not just ghostly things. I can hear the radio turned down in my bedroom too low for anyone else to hear (how I communicate with my grandfather), but it's soooo annoying, because I HATE crowds, too. I can't stand being around loud people!
