We've all heard of humans having a sixth sense - intuition or a gut feeling - but now, it turns out humans may have a seventh sense, and it has everything to do with touch in a way we never expected.
A new study suggests we can perceive objects without ever making direct contact, revealing a surprising form of “remote touch” previously undocumented in humans.
In the experiment, participants sifted their fingers through sand to locate a hidden cube. What amazed researchers was that people could detect the object before touching it, sensing tiny mechanical disturbances in the surrounding sand as their hands moved.
This suggests our hands are far more sensitive than we thought, able to pick up minute shifts in granular materials and expanding our understanding of touch beyond simple physical contact. It hints that our bodies may carry a subtle, previously unknown way of perceiving the world, one that lets us feel more than we realize. Could this be subtle energy? Very possibly so, even though the mainstream scientific world has hastily 'debunked' the existence of subtle energy. That said, this is only within the materialist paradigm, which many believe to be an outdated way of making sense of the world.
