Although the model in Fig. 27 leaves several questions open, it has the merit of offering a general framework of ordering the ESP processes. Considering the model type B described in the previous section, a connection could be established and the telepathic processes could be explained via the mental field having properties entirely different from those of the electromagnetic field. The channel of Fig. 27 would be the mental field, while the decoder will be the connection between the mental field and its neuronic support. However, this model could explain the MPPS processes only if we admitted that the mental wave could explore a physical object, i.e. giving psychic properties to an inert object, in contradiction to all experimental evidence. On the other hand, our model type C could explain telepathy in a manner similar to model B, but also the MPPS phenomena. If the mental wave developed in orthoexistence from or into an informational material substance, being the physical support for any substance from the existence, then these will have a certain contact inside the orthoexistence. Then the physical object will not have any psychical property and will need not be psychically activated, but will have an indirect contact with the mental wave. The mistake of parapsychology is that is does not operate like psychology, i.e. that it considers the psychic beyond its contact with the nervous system. In our opinion, parapsychology should be a new informational physics and its entire way of approach should be changed. We consider that the psychic can only appear in relation with a material support, a nervous system, a biological machine; it cannot be disconnected from the biological aspect. And this allows for one of the ingredients to be made of a less usual substance, nevertheless physical. But to attribute to inert physical matter psychic properties would mean to consider the psychic outside the nervous system, i.e. something in itself. Charles A. Tart leaves one believe that objects could have psychic properties¹¹⁶, and that we are not prepared toapproach "the big problem of spirit vs matter"¹¹⁷. Similarly Lawrence Le Shan¹¹⁸ says: "materialistic metaphysics that gave us the industrial revolution now destroys us", that showing his mystical orientation, just as other researchers dealing with psy phenomena.

Since it seems that in telepathy space plays no role, and that the phenomenon takes place through orthoexistence, this means that time also may not play an essential role. A relative disregard of time was noticed in some ESP phenomena that have a precognitive aspect. The ESP phenomena sometimes appear like they are not conditioned from cause to effect, but rather like they "fall simultaneous in time", something that CarlG. Jung calls "syncronicity"¹¹⁹ .In his view, syncronicity is a "psychological relativity of space and time" that eliminates the cause-effect relationship and permits precognition. According to Jung, this negates materialism and allows for transcendental spiritual existence. We observe that orthoexistence could, in principle, produce some unusual psychological effect through an equivalent compression of space and time. Since in our universe, as Jung admits¹²⁰, the cause-effect relationship can not be in doubt, being connected to movement and to the energy existent in the universe (Fig. 28), then syncronicity is seen as a connection through contingency, when cause-effect in space and time can not be thought of.

Considering certain experimental evidence regarding the psy phenomena, one notes that they display precognitive or postevent aspects only about the actual time, and not over the whole history of the existence and of the universe. Only short deviations from the experimentator's actual time are noticed in such psy phenomena. They could reflect certain particular properties of orthoexistence, but we need not imagine orthoexistence as a timewise chaos, nor as a voluntary spirit in which any order and root of cause-effect disappears what so ever. We do not consider orthoexistence as a spirit outside the material order. Due to our space-time existence we find it difficult to develop a thinking for something that were outside these coordinates, but an effort should be done. The most appropriate image would be that of space or time neighboring phenomena compressed into orthoexistence, one over the other, like successive layers. The mutual interference between time neighbors compressed into orthoexistence could explain the aspects of time relativity notice in some psy phenomena. However the cause-effect relationship in an order specific to orthoexistence would still be present. The aspects that Jung touches are those of the relationship between space-time existence and orthoexistence in connection with those sides of mental activity that come into contact with orthoexistence.

Although the psycho-kinetic phenomenawere subject to controversies¹²¹, stating that they are just perceptive, visual aberration, certain experimental data also exists. Edward Duke from Duke University experimented with psychic influencing the movements of water drops or of ions in a solution subject to an electric field¹²². It is stated that the statistical results were interesting and significant, but it does not say in which way. On the other hand, the model offered¹²³ by Charles A. Tart for psycho-kinetic phenomena (Fig. 29) is not consistent since it assumes the brain to be able to muster some type of energy to act upon matter (some type of amplified psychic or spiritual energy). However no experimental, or conceptual, justification can be found for such an energy. Besides, such energy, once triggered, should pass through the channel that previously was meant for information transmittal. We cannot accept such a model. However, if we consider our model type C, we could say the following: We saw that through beingness and the mental field one could reach the deep informational matter. But any elementary particle in the universe should contain some informational substance determining its characteristics and interaction laws. If we were to act through beingness into orthoexistence, and if we knew how to influence the informational zones that sustain the substance of the physical object we are interested in, then we could influenceit.
