Explanation -
Telepathy (Greek τηλε, tele meaning "distant" and πάθεια, patheia meaning "to be affected by",) refers to the transfer of information on thoughts or feelings between individuals by means other than the five classical senses (See Psi). The term was coined in 1882 by the classical scholar Fredric W. H. Myers, a founder of the Society for Psychical Research, specifically to replace the earlier expression thought-transference. A person who is able to make use of telepathy is said to be able to read the thoughts and stored information in the brain of others. Telepathy, along with psychokinesis forms the main branches of parapsychological research, and many studies seeking to detect, understand, utilize telepathy have been done within the field.

Telepathy is a common theme in fiction and science fiction, with many superheroes and supervillains having telepathic abilities. Such abilities include sensing the thoughts of others. Some Transhumanists believe that technologically enabled telepathy, called "techlepathy", will exist in the future of humanity, and seek to develop practical machines for this.
