Psychokinesis, also known as Telekinesis, is the ability to move or manipulate objects using only the power of the mind, without any physical interaction. The term comes from the Greek words “tele” meaning “distant” and “kinesis” meaning “movement.” It suggests a person could influence objects purely by concentration and willpower.
While telekinesis has fascinated scientists, psychics, and fiction writers for centuries, it remains unproven by public scientific standards. No definitive experimental evidence has demonstrated telekinetic abilities under controlled conditions, and the concept is generally regarded as pseudoscience. The claims of telekinesis contradict established physical laws such as conservation of energy and momentum, and no known mechanism in physics supports it.
Despite the lack of scientific validation, many anecdotal experiences of mind-over-matter effects exist. Theories about how telekinesis might work propose unknown psychic energies or manipulation of quantum properties, but these are often taged as speculative without empirical support.
Telekinesis is the ability of moving objects with the mind, prominent in science fiction and paranormal claims.
