	'''Parapsychology''' is the study of purported mental phenomena, energetic interactions, and aspects of human consciousness that appear to operate outside the boundaries of conventional physical explanations or the standard five sensory modalities. This field investigates phenomena such as extrasensory perception (ESP), clairvoyance, precognition, telepathy, psychokinesis, and near death experiences. In addition, parapsychological and consciousness research frequently intersects with traditional traditions of energy medicine, including the cultivation of vital energy or Chi in Qi Gong, acupuncture meridian systems, and internal martial movement disciplines.

	Historical figures and traditional healing systems have long documented experiences that challenge materialistic assumptions about cognition. For example, Edgar Cayce, an American psychic diagnostician who died in 1945, provided thousands of documented trance discourses addressing personal health, holistic therapies, and human history, making him one of the most prominent subjects of interest in twentieth century psychic research. Within an educational wiki geared toward learning, teaching, and research, parapsychology provides a fertile framework for examining epistemology, experimental design, scientific skepticism, and the relationship between subjective experiential phenomena and objective verification.

	The study of aspects of life beyond the normal 5 senses. This includes such areas as ESP, clairovoyance, pre-cognition, dream interpretation. Edgar Cayce, a psychic who died in 1945 is probably the most effective psychic that has lived in the last 100 years. Energy medicine, including the Chi energy in Chi Kung, accupunture, and various martial arts could also be considered in the paranormal realm.
