Imagine your child knows to the minute when you'll get home. That they can hear, from a distance, the podcast playing in your ears while you push through the afternoon rush. That they know what you're thinking as you brush your teeth in the morning. In fact, they pick up every thought you have. Phew…

But that's not all. Let's keep going. They may well also know when the next flood is coming, whether someone is planning a crime, and where you've hidden the Christmas presents.

Do you think this is nonsense? That I'm making it up? That I'm exaggerating?

Nope. Maybe your particular child doesn't have these abilities so developed, but there is a group of children that does. And no one knows it about them…

That's exactly why I'm writing this article: to help spread awareness and to give you the same fantastic experiences of opening the limits of the mind, the kind I experienced myself, when I was listening to the podcast The Telepathy Tapes by Ky Dickens. Ky is an exceptional documentary filmmaker and storyteller behind this podcast series, which became a viral hit and, on Spotify and iTunes at the end of 2024, dethroned even Joe Rogan.

Everything I write here is based on the accounts of the children and parents who took part in this podcast. Some additional information I looked up from other sources, videos and interviews, so that I would have a more complete picture and could bring you an article that has value and also works as a kind of signpost for the parents this concerns.

What you read here can genuinely change your outlook on life!

For me this information is a caress and a stamp of confirmation that the way I perceive this world and the spiritual one isn't just my wishful thinking, but a reality that is shared and described in detail by these avatars, when they're given the chance to express themselves. And it also gives me great hope that we as humanity still have a chance, when we have direct access to such wisdom.

Who are the main protagonists of The Telepathy Tapes?

You know how they say it's foolish to judge a fish by whether it can climb a tree? Maybe the saying goes quite differently, but you surely get the idea.

These are autistic children who belong to the group known as non-speakers. Because they're often tested in ways that assume fine motor skills - speech, eye-hand coordination, handling objects and so on, which they don't have - their inner world gets overlooked, since in most cases these people have no way to show it.

In a moment I'll tell you a breathtaking story about one autistic "giant". But first, let's clarify how the world and Ky Dickens could have learned about him.

Spelling as a gateway to the treasure

Spelling is a method of communication in which a person who doesn't speak points to letters on a board or keyboard and forms words out of them. It's nothing new: as early as the end of the 19th century Helen Keller was able to express her thoughts by spelling, even though she was both deaf and blind. In modern times this path was developed by Soma Mukhopadhyay in the 1980s in India, from where the method spread to the USA and on into the world.

Today it is used by thousands of autistic children and adults who otherwise have no way to speak. Spelling opens up access for them to self-expression, education and relationships, and shows that beneath the surface of "silence" lies a full-fledged intelligence and a rich inner life. For more info, explore RPM (Rapid Prompting Method), S2C (Spelling to Communicate) or the Spellers Method, and check out the documentary too Spellers the movie. In the Czech Republic, one of the people working with spelling is Petra Trachtmanová.

How does spelling work?

Spelling works like this: a person has a board of letters or a keyboard in front of them and points to individual letters, which a partner reads aloud. Because many autistic non-speakers have difficulties with fine motor skills, it isn't about writing with a pencil or about precise movements, but rather about a large, deliberate pointing toward a letter. In this way the motor obstacle is gradually bypassed and direct access to the thoughts is made possible. The letters form words and sentences, and the communication becomes intelligible to those around them.

Most of the information in this article and in The Telepathy Tapes has passed through a spelling board. The method sometimes stirs up controversy, but after everything I've heard about non-speakers, I don't have the slightest doubt that it works.

Arjun, a 13-year-old aspiring poet from Florida, sees the possibility of spelling as a great gift:

"The way I look on the outside isn't me. I'm imprisoned in a body that hardly submits to my will. My family tried various therapies. All of them failed, except for spelling. My voice was set free and traveled the Earth, searching for the key that would unlock the rest of me.“

The non-speaking autistic girl Lily, whom I'll come back to, says about spelling that "it is the only method that has given hope to people without speech and shown the world our beautiful minds. But so many people don't want to believe that the words are really ours."

One father had a spelling board tattooed on himself for his autistic son, so that they would always have it at hand.

What makes these children so exceptional?

Let's go straight to the story, because through it you'll understand. I cried over it, and I'm crying now too, as I write it.

Imagine an enormous, smiling boy, 203 cm tall and over 130 kg, who gives a high five to anyone he possibly can and throws himself into water at every opportunity.

His name is Jean Paul Ingram (from here on I use the abbreviation JP) and he was officially diagnosed with a regressive form of autism at the age of 18 months. Over time came further diagnoses of OCD, ADHD, anxiety, epilepsy and apraxia. He is one of a pair of twins, and his mom Libby is a speech therapist who refused to come to terms with the idea that her son would never be able to communicate and show his true inner world. So she tried various therapies until she came across the spelling method with a letter board.

Thanks to it, at the age of 8 Jean Paul truly "spoke up" for the first time: he began to share his thoughts, to learn at an academic level, to write poetry, and he formed a real relationship with his twin Thomas. It turned out that beneath the layer of diagnoses was a sensitive, intelligent and creative young man with big dreams and a love of life.

His goal was to become a poet and to marry Lily, who is also a non-speaking autistic girl.

Even before they started using spelling, Libby sensed that JP communicated telepathically.

Gradually, through their conversations, she learned more and more about his inner world, and what she had already sensed anyway was confirmed. Her son, like the other "silenced ones" apparently, reads thoughts, and telepathy is his basic means of communication.

The Telepathy Tapes spends a good deal of time on telepathy tests with different children, and you can find videos on YouTube as well. The results are astonishing. In the tests, the children read minds with a 100% success rate even in very hard cases - the result of multiplying three-digit numbers, for instance. According to the spellers, every autistic child who struggles to speak, or doesn't speak at all, has this ability.

Crossing into another dimension

One day Libby was overcome by an immense drowsiness. She couldn't help it and lay down. At that same moment, sleep overcame the other parents of related non-speakers as well. As she was falling asleep, JP came up to her, smiled and waved.

When she woke, she saw the lifeless body of her twenty-year-old son in the hot tub. He had had an epileptic seizure and drowned.

Libby was devastated.

At the same time, in the other spellers' families the children began spelling that JP was finally free, without anyone having shared this information. They all knew it before their parents did. For Jean Paul had come to say goodbye to them.

Messages from the subtle realm after his death

Through one of the spellers, Libby received a message from her beloved son: "I, son of God, am home. Arrange your whole life around love." Then JP also assured her that he hadn't suffered, that he had planned it all, and that she had been the best mother he could have chosen.

Jean Paul's friend Noah, when he came to visit Libby to support her in this difficult time, spelled out this message:

„The day before, JP told me that he had to leave this world, because he could no longer contain it, nor bear the mission that God had set for him. I was afraid to come here, because of the wave of emotions and how my body would react to it, but it's as if JP never left. He is completely around me and merged with my energy in a way he never could be before. He is in us, Libby. He is much more a part of us than he ever could be if he were here physically.“

Lily, his love and fiancée, also knew right away that he'd gone, and she passed on this message:

"Just as he was leaving, I felt him leaving me. I wanted to go with him, but I had to stay in order to pass on this message of love." Lily says that they connect through water and are still in close contact with each other. Just as it was on the Hill.

The mysterious Hill

Another of JP's friends, Sahari, knew of his death before his mother did. She fell asleep on the floor at the very moment he was leaving.

"In this world JP quietly wept, and so did I. Sometimes our bodies do things we can't control. Maybe you don't believe that JP and I can be close friends, even though we met physically only once. Fortunately, God allowed our friendship to continue on a spiritual level. We had conversations, we laughed. Yesterday JP went home. There was a great celebration on the Hill. The Hill is wonderful; sometimes I would rather be there than sit here spelling."

Where was that celebration of Jean Paul's liberation? On the Hill. The Hill is a figurative "place" where non-speakers gather at the level of consciousness.

There they share, encourage one another, study, and pass information among themselves.

Jean Paul used to go there after school. He would lie down on his bed, pile lots of pillows on his head, and then he laughed, cried, and communicated telepathically with friends on a level of consciousness where everyone is free and doesn't experience the limitations of the physical body.

Even when Lily came to visit him, they were each on a different floor of the house. They didn't have to sit next to each other, or even try to communicate our way. They talked on the Hill. When Lily was leaving to go home, she spelled out to her parents: "That was amazing! We have to do it again.", and yet, from an ordinary person's point of view, they had effectively not interacted at all. But an ordinary person doesn't know the way to the Hill…

If you're wondering whether it's possible to get to the Hill, we don't have access there. I've only heard of two neurotypical people who were given the honor of being able to visit it. One of them was Dan, an assistant at a school for disabled children (although in this context the word "disabled" is rather comical). He claims that this state of consciousness is guarded and that no one with impure intentions can get there.

Maura, the mother of Emelie, an autistic girl gifted with telepathy, comments on the labels we give them: "People always say that these children have a disability. It's actually strange, because we are the ones with the real disability. They have abilities we don't. Reading minds and all the other things that go with it."

What other gifts does this community carry?

In the series The Telepathy Tapes and the subsequent Talk Tracks, Ky Dickens describes a whole range of stories that we would call supernatural. These aren't isolated experiences, but the shared reality of many non-speakers.

These abilities are innate to them, and for each one you'll find specific stories in the podcast. I'll include a few quotes that I find fitting. For some, no name was given.

They often say they know what others are thinking before they even say it. For example, it's very hard to hide anything from them, because they read it from your mind.

They describe feeling the energies, vibrations, or intentions of the people around them. They can tell positive and negative energies apart, and some are deeply moved and harmonized by nature.

They know events before they happen. They can foresee some tragedies and pass on personal messages to strangers.

They don't learn the way we do. They can "download" certain skills whole, like a complete "mental app". For example, the parents of one six-year-old boy discovered, when he started spelling, that he "spoke" six foreign languages completely fluently.

Usher recounted that he can absorb the contents of an entire book just by touching it. He explains it like this: "Consciousness evidently exists beforehand and continues on, and the experience of an earthly 3D body is only a temporary part of consciousness. In essence, we gather an enormous amount of information. Every new thought, every new idea is new information, and in this way we expand the universe, because every new piece of knowledge is stored in the library and becomes available to everyone else. But this knowledge we have to acquire through direct experience in three-dimensional life."

Some speak of visiting other realms, dimensions, or places like the Hill mentioned earlier, where they meet with friends and have spiritual conversations. They have the ability to speak with those who have passed, to learn from spiritual beings, ascended masters, and angelic beings, and to glide through various levels of consciousness.

They say they have precise awareness of their own body and of the bodies of others, and can help in identifying health problems.

"If society could accept that we are not underfunctioning, but on the contrary overfunctioning, and that our physical difficulties are more a symptom of a cerebral cortex that works too well than of its dysfunction, we could move forward. Let us lead you!

Most of us have a very precise awareness of our own body, even though outwardly we seem disconnected from it. Even so, we can help you enormously with diagnosis. We would like to have access to more complementary therapies (sound healing, acupuncture, massage, kinesiology, tuning forks, shiatsu) and also physical space to think, ideally outdoors, without television or radio, so that we can heal ourselves.

I am content with my physicality and with my gifts. I don't want to share them with everyone. That would be exhausting. My main motivation is the betterment of humanity, the evolution of human consciousness. And I believe that if you understand us, we will move toward this goal together. We don't want to be swept under the rug. That won't help either you or us to transform. Right now we need each other."

Riley described how his soul and body vibrate at different frequencies, and how tuning forks help him harmonize.

"My soul has one vibration and my human experience has another vibration. The problem is that the first is much higher than the second. And that causes dysregulation in my body." Riley then guided the therapist to strike two tuning forks that vibrate at the frequency of his soul and his body at once, so that he could embody himself more fully.

Other challenges they face

Their consciousness is expanded and they aren't fully settled in the body. This causes them problems, because not only can they not use fine motor skills, but sometimes the body does things they have no control over, and they can't switch it off.

From their accounts, I pictured it like wanting to drive a car but having only one leg and one arm inside, while hopping alongside on the road with the other leg. I'd get somewhere too, but the style of driving would be nowhere near what it's like when the driver sits fully behind the wheel.

Houston Asher, who together with his mother Katie even wrote the book The Book of Heaven, described how, when after 21 years of silence he finally began to spell, he felt embarrassed as he became aware of what his body was doing but couldn't stop it. For example, he would throw himself into any available water, because only in water did he feel he could sense his own boundaries.

The system often regards them as "low-functioning". They're given kindergarten tasks even in adolescence, instead of being educated according to their true intellect. This leads to frustration and wasted potential.

For example, Houston was educated his whole life as a toddler. He says it was not only humiliating, but it also took away his hope that things would ever change and that he would be seen as an intelligent being.

Trevor spelled out: "I want people to see us in a different light. I am an intelligent man with spiritual gifts. I wish for people to presume competence in those without speech, and for all of humanity I long for compassion and an understanding of who we are. We are lightworkers."

It happens when the brain takes in too many stimuli at once and can't filter them. Sounds, lights, touches, smells, or visual chaos then feel much stronger than they do for most people. The result is being overwhelmed: anxiety, the inability to think clearly, physical exhaustion, or even collapse.

For autistic people this is a very common experience, but it isn't a whim or "bad manners": it's the result of a differently wired nervous system. What can help is a calm environment, the chance to withdraw, protective aids like headphones or dark glasses, and above all the respect and understanding of those around them.

Katie, in this video , describes the world her son Houston lives in. His brain runs on synesthesia, which means he hears colors and light and sees sounds. At the same time, his whole reality is imbued with mathematical patterns. And he sees everything 3× over, and still in motion.

Imagine what it must be like for him to look someone in the eyes. Suddenly there are six eyes, all moving at once, Houston picks up everything that person and everyone else in the room is thinking, and on top of that the colors, shapes and objects create a cacophony of sound, while real sounds take on physical form. We probably can't even imagine it. It's as if all of reality came alive, like on a psychedelic trip you can't escape from.

Most non-speakers have no voice and no way to express themselves. And even when they do, and learn to spell, words often aren't enough to describe the reality they perceive.

Asher perceives the inadequacy of verbal expression like this: "When I make a sound, it doesn't come easily. To others it often sounds disharmonious. Words are like freezing thoughts and sounds into symbols, and that can be a barrier for some neurodiverse people. When we try to speak, we have to watch the volume, pitch, tone, expression, and pauses, and at the same time produce the sounds themselves with breath, mouth, and throat. All of that is exhausting and difficult.

Verbal speech feels like a very crude way of communicating compared to telepathy. In telepathy we usually already feel what others are thinking anyway, and it would be much easier if they could simply perceive our thoughts. At the same time, not every non-speaker has access to spelling. In some countries there's even a risk of losing one's license if a teacher were to pass this skill on in school. What a shame!"

What to do with this information?

If you understand English, listen to The Telepathy Tapes. What you've read here is just a tiny slice of the whole, which is absolutely breathtaking! With this article I feel as if I wanted to fit the whole of The Lord of the Rings into 10 minutes. There's even a documentary being made right now about these families and the abilities of non-speakers.

Pass this article on and help this so-far almost voiceless community find a voice.

I'll admit that this podcast changed a lot for me in this respect. It opened not only my eyes, but also my heart.

If you're the parent of such a child and a feeling of guilt is creeping over you, please, be gentle with yourself. Everything has its perfect timing, and this information is reaching you right now for a reason.

Perhaps you'll be comforted by these words from Suzie Miller, that it isn't about perfection and pretending you're fine when you feel like everything is falling on your head and you can't cope anymore: "What matters to us isn't how the parents feel, but that they themselves know how they feel. Because when they know how they feel, we don't feel like we have to show it to them. We don't feel the need to regulate it."

Personally, I like this one the most: "Please, press my soul back into my body." This love language expresses the need for deep pressure (a firm hug, a weighted blanket, or pressure that helps autistic people feel the boundaries of their own body). It's a way to once again anchor yourself, calm the nervous system, and return the "soul back into the body".

When they asked Houston what he would want to say to all the parents who have autistic children, he answered: "Your kid is out there." (Your kid is out there.)

Let's keep hope in humanity's progress!

I'd like to close with Anthony's words. They give me enormous hope that we're on the right path. That we have hope!

"I am a person of the future; I came into this world with my eyes wide open. I am a pure, translucent soul who is here to help humanity evolve. I remember what most people have forgotten.

I am tuned to vibrational frequencies, and I can align with specific frequencies to gain access to thought-forms and translate them into words.

This ability also lets me communicate interdimensionally. Aspects of my personality travel through space and dimensions that most people visit only in their minds. To me they are as natural as being in a human body is to you.

I help people discover who they are, and I prepare them for the shift from the material world to the etheric one, where all creative ideas are heard."

Anthony believes that "people will in time become more intuitive, multidimensional, and interdimensionally connected" and that telepathy will one day be the norm. I believe it with him!

And last but not least…

Come learn and lend a hand, so that we as humanity may evolve and awaken within ourselves the abilities this group of people is showing us! I believe we all once had them active, and they are still within us. We just need to rediscover them, learn to trust the voice of intuition, and turn our gaze upward.
