how can you feel objects which are close to that part of your forehead? did we really have a "third eye" before losing it in some kind of an evolution??

That effect is real and the explanation is very simple: it's our ears detecting tiny sound reflections from the surrounding environment. Around us there is always noise, although we may not perceive it consciously. But when our forehead is close to a reflecting surface, we perceive those tiny echoes, even if we are blindfolded.\nIt's a very rough version of what bats do all the time.

NO, it is not due to uncomfortness,but the reason behind it  as per my knowledge is:\nfirst of all, we basically have and use our five most important sense organ(receptor organ)they are the sense of\n1)smell---TEMPORAL LOBE OF BRAIN\n2)taste---PAREITAL LOBE OF BRAIN\n3)hearing---TEMPORAL LOBE OF BRAIN\n4)touch---PAREITAL LOBE OF BRAIN\n5)vision---OCCIPITAL LOBE OF BRAIN\nall these senses of our body are controlled by the centers situated in the PROSENCEPHALON,MESENCEPHALON,RHOMBENCEPHALON of our brain,and due to their(sense organs)stimulus, an impulse is created which travel right through the nerves and BRING ABOUT PROPER FUNCTIONING OF OUR BODY PARTS SUCH AS MOVEMENTS OF LEGS,HANDS ETC.\nBEST IN YOUR CASE(QUESTION)IF EYES ARE KEPT CLOSED THEN THEY WILL NOT GET STIMULATED(SEE ANY PICTURE OR ENVIRONMENT) IT WILL NOT CREATE A IMPULSE which will not travel to your brain for further processing AND YOU WILL NOT BE GETTING(AWARE)(DUE TO LACK OF INFO IN BRAIN FOR THE SURROUNDINGS) WHERE EXACTLY YOU ARE MOVING, WHERES THE OBSTACLE ETC.\nIN SIMPLE TERMS YOU WILL NOT BE AWARE OF YOUR OWN SURROUNDINGS, SO HOW  WILL YOUR BODY INTERACT WITH THE ENVIRONMENT,AND YOU WILL FEEL UNCOMFORTNESS.

it isnt a physical eye however its a spiritual thing. (for lack of better term at the moment.)  its our subconscious.  thats where you have your dreams and those moments where you go woah deja vu.  stuff like that.  we all have it.  just some people its weak others strong.  Some work with it and some dont.

yes, it's happened to me but when it happens it just feels weird and really really different. I wonder if it's a completely different feeling than what we normally feel everyday. they should have a name for it besides de ja vu. its just weird. haha.

Very interesting indeed...  This may very well be another piece of the puzzle.\n\nAn earlier theory speculated , well before neanderthals existed, was the ability to walk upright was an anatomical change that later facilitated cranial development.\n\nUpright ambulatory movement freed the hands to later craft tools, literally gave a different perspective of the world, etc.\n\nGenetically, proof of our connection to the great apes has been established by Hillier et al, Nature 2004.  Mind you, we didn't come FROM the apes, but share a common ancestor.  Peace.

I've never seen anyone possessed. But yes.....I have felt ghosts. Certain family members....My self and my mom and brother can feel when they are around. Especially when my Dad is around! It's like I could reach out and touch where he is.  You know when you can sense that someone is standing near you.......say in back of you....or you can tell that someone has walked into the room when your eyes are closed. Same feeling. And it usually is the feeling that you associated with that person.......you recognize the energy! It's very cool! A ghost is just a natural transition of the human condition. We are spiritual beings having a physical experience. When that experience is over........we transition back into the spirit form. All very natural. Nothing spooky!

In addition to the classical 5 senses we can sense temperature, pain and equilibrium (balance).  We also have coutless other senses which work subconsciously to keep us alive (water, sugar, salt balance).

That's crazy dude... I see weird stuff out of the corner of my eyes too. I also sometimes get a glancing view of something, but it isn't really there when I look closer. We're both fucking nuts!

All humans have a trace amount of magnetite in their noses, found in the ethmoid bone (between the eyes), possibly part of a rudimentary compass to allow direction finding relative to the earth's magnetic field. The human magnetoception is still very controversial, but some studies show that some people have the ability to orient themselves-even when blindfolded and removed from such external clues as sunlight-to within a few degrees of the North Pole, exactly as a compass does.

When they don't look you in the eye - but that is not always reliable.  Classic "tells" are when a person touches their nose or the top of their head.  Usually the top of the head is with both hands, but not always.  Sometimes people touch behind one of their ears.  A good one to know is that when a person is telling a story, if they are lying and making it up, the will look away and to their left.  If they are telling the truth the will usually look  somewhat downwards and to their right.  When they look left they are creating - when they look right they are accessing memories.  That one is very reliable.

THe sensation is really intense especially if he hits the most sensitive spot. YOu have to ask me personally where mine is ;) This is hard to describe...maybe if you received a really great head...that's the closest feeling. I said maybe because I am not a guy and have never been one :) So, tell me...how does it feel to get a really good one?\n\nYeah!

There are many things that we do that do not require our conscious brain.  Whatever things you are talking about, perhaps the subconscious got started on it before the consciousness got involved.  When cockroaches feel stimulus on their back legs, they begin running before their conscious mind knows why they are running.  It's just like the other poster said, the impulse telling your hand to pull oout of a fire doesn't require your conscious mind to make a decision, it starts the process for you.\n\nIt's an interesting idea that this might have to do with quantum wierdness, but I think experiments woudl reject that.  I encourage you to keep thinking of things like this and hypothesizing.  Eventually you may be teaching us instead of the other way around :-)

We do use our brains but there are many functions of the brain remains unknown and not discovered.Some of the percentage makes up the mass of water,blood vessels,white blood cells...Who knows in ancient times we 've got telepathic ability?=P

There has been a bit of research done on this, but much of it lies within the realm of philosophy rather than pure science.\n\nWhat you are describing are qualia, essential experiential perceptions of stilumli, rtaher than the stimulus itself. They are very difficult to study scientifically because they are inherently subjective and science can only deal with the objective.\n\nDo a Google search on qualia and you will get more information on this subject than you can handle.

Deja-vu is a feeling your somewhere where you've been before, basically your meant to be there for some reason or another.\n\nadded\nIn the late 19th and early 20th Centuries, it was widely believed that déjà vu could be caused by the mis-timing of neuronal firing. This timing error was thought to lead the brain to believe that it was encountering a stimulus for the second time, when in fact, it was simply re-experiencing the same event from a slightly delayed source. A number of variations of these theories exist, with miscommunication of the two cerebral hemispheres and abnormally fast neuronal firing also given as explanations for the sensation. Perhaps the most widely acknowledged neuronal theory is the optical pathway delay theory which explains déjà vu as being the product of a delayed optical input from one eye. Closely following the input from the first eye (when it should be simultaneous), this misleads conscious awareness and suggests a sensation of familiarity when there should not be one. Although intuitively plausible, this theory is untestable due to the minute times involved in neuronal firing, and inconsistent with reports that blind individuals experience déjà vu in the same way as sighted individuals (O'Connor & Moulin, 2006).

His left is your right isn't it? Perhaps you are righthanded and therefor your right eye dominates and stares at it's choice, the closer object to it (being the left eye of the other person). Try looking at a lefthanded or leftbrain dominant person and see if there's a difference. ^__^

If you locate the notch in the eyebrow, above the eye, you will find it to be quite tender. This is the nerve which is involved with the lids and sensory aspect of that part of the face. If it is irritated (inflamed) you will notice a tic..You will find a corresponding tenderness at the base of the skull. Indicating there is an inflammatory process involved. You may obtain relief by stretching the tight muscle on the one side of the neck. You can determine which side, just by rotating the head both ways.
