Another possible source of evidence for the soul is parapsychology, the study of such unusual phenomena as extrasensory perception (mind reading, remote viewing, or precognition) and telekinesis (mind over matter). Such phenomena would be very difficult to explain from the perspective of mind-brain identity, because they seem to violate basic principles of physics. For example, telekinesis would require that brains somehow have the ability to influence external objects through means other than the forces currently recognized by physics. Precognition would require some way in which events in the future could cause changes in present brains. If parapsychological phenomena are real, they would indeed provide empirical support for the hypothesis that there is more to mind than brain.
