心靈是知覺的主體，當心靈深居軀體時，對外在的知覺只能透過感官的覺察. 當一部分心靈超越身體的限制時，即可直接擷取信息而瞭解外在的世界，所以只有在心靈有些超越身體時才會發生特異功能. 心靈與軀體的不完全重合，會導致生理指標的昇降變化. 因此參考生理指標的變動，可以確認特異功能的發生與否.The mind is the agency for all cognition. When the mind is firmly embedded in the body，one can perceive the external world only through inputs from our physical organs for sight，hearing，smell，taste，and touch. When the mind is partially embedded in ihe body，it will be able to perceive the external world without the help of the sensory organs. Extrasensory perception occurs only when the mind is partially embedded in the body. This in/out shift of the mind induces fluctuations in certain physiological indicators. It is therefore possible to identify the occurrence of extrasensory perception through the fluctuations of these indicators.
