Telepathy and Empathy

Cross posted from r/Experiencers.
For those that have experienced telepathy, I’m curious what you think about empathy as the stepping stone to telepathy?

After watching Disclosure Day which emphasized the INTERNAL changes of contact, and seeing an interview with Darryl Anka (whether you are a fan or not of either the movie or Anka is besides the point) where he said telepathy is the natural evolution of empathy…I have to agree.

For me it felt like a calm space had opened up in my consciousness and it just felt *natural*. More natural than speaking. There were no social expectations like verbal communication where you have to placate the other person’s ego. If you are neurodivergent you know exactly what I am talking about. We could just communicate directly and openly and it was comfortable because we had empathy and respect for each other and not fear or worry. It was like the thoughts just opened up in my mind and the intent was \*felt\* simultaneously. Same with animals. Intentions and feelings just \*opened up\* almost instantaneously like a flower blooming on 100x speed in this “space”.

I find this intriguing because if empathy is the key, this will expose all the people without empathy in the world (ETA: assuming everyone with empathy is able to evolve their empathy into telepathy which is what I believe we are shifting towards). If everyone with empathy is telepathic and you meet someone who is pretending to be nice but can’t communicate telepathically, you know they are narcissistic/psychopathic. Perhaps that is why our society seems to stamp out empathy, especially in the way it says to raise children when their emotions and empathy are most vulnerable when young? Why “gentle parenting” is attacked by people who think spanking is the way to go? Research shows spanking creates brain damage in exactly the same regions as abuse. The brain regions associated with executive functioning, emotional regulation, empathy, and fear (frontal area, hypothalamus, DMN, amygdala, etc).
