Does telepathic communication possess characteristics of Beings?

[Minyatur]

In my opinion, based on absolutely nothing but my intuition , the use of telepathy is preceded by the understanding (not intellectual belief) that we are all one entity. Thus the origination of a thought isn't seen as coming from "somebody/somewhere" else; rather it is coming from a part of your own self, such as stubbing your toe and receiving the "communication" that it is pained. That being said, you would know quite well where exactly the message came from.

I absolutely agree with you, except for that last part.

In every experience I've had with telepathy, I was confused as to whether they were my own thoughts or someone else's.  It seems really hard to tell.  But perhaps I just suck at it.  /shrug

I'm sure at a more finessed level, one would know exactly where it hailed from.

Hard to know if you would be speaking with a thought form or an actual entity, struggling with this as well.

But then you could say an actual entity is also pretty much a thought form which we project. So in the end, it could be said that we can only talk with ourselves.
