"Telepathy"

Many gods and demons of various mythological culture groups have such a large eye on their breast; thus they see everything that takes place on earth. This motif points to the fact – which we can observe time and again in the analysis of the drams of patients – that the unconscious in us often seems to possess a knowledge of things which were previously inexplicable and which, seen rationally, we cannot know. Such terms as “telepathy” do not explain the phenomenon. But we are able to recognize every day that dreams speak to people of things which they obviously cannot know. The unconscious seems to have something like a diffuse intuitive knowledge which reaches into our surroundings, and which Jung called “absolute knowledge” (because it’s detached from consciousness) or the “luminosity” of the unconscious.
