Telepathy means being able to read other people's minds. The term was coined by Frederic Myers in 1882, the same year the Society for Psychical Research was founded. It is, along with clairvoyance, clairaudience, precognition and retrocogntion, one of the faculties of extrasensory perception. There is evidence for telepathy in twins. There is also evidence from the studies by Upton Sinclair and his wife Craig Sinclair, involving people doing drawings and people many miles away being able to work out what they were drawing. Further evidence for telepathy came from a 2014 study by the psychiatrist Carles Grau, who found people in India who thought of the words "hola" or "ciao" in India could communicate their thoughts to people in Spain.
