Which theory may explain paranormal phenomena?

[darryl88]

To those who are open to PSI existing.Which theory do you believe may explain PSI (paranormal phenomena) such astelepathy, clairvoyance, psychokinesis, near-death experiences or apparitionsetc?

 

John Beloff a well known parapsychologist concluded that PSI occurs becuase ofdualism ie the mind and brain are separate. Amit Goswami however in his book“The Self-Aware Universe”, lists some studies on quantum physics that may leadto an explanation of psi that agrees with the theory of a nonphysical andconceptual world. He explains that in quantum physics, objects are not seen asdefinite things. Instead, objects are possibilities, viewed as something called“possibility waves”. Of course his interpretation due to his research inquantum physics has lead him to formulate idealistic monism, that onlyconsciousness exists in the universe and everything is part of it, he arguesagainst dualism and materialism.

 

Others however have disagreed and put forward physical and materialistictheories to try and explain PSI.

 

Michael Persinger claims that much of paranormal phenomena can be explained bylow frequency (ELF) electromagnetic waves.

 

Brian Josephson has claimed that the explanation of PSI may be found in quantumphysics. Gerald Feinberg's concept of a tachyon, a theoretical particle thattravels faster than the speed of light has been advocated by someparapsychologists who claim that it could explain some PSI phenomena.

 

Charles Tart however believes PSI is completey non-physical and does notoperate to material laws.

 

There are many theories which try and explain PSI. Which one do you advocateand why? If any?
