QUERY> Buddhism and the paranormal

by Martin Adam
Dear colleagues,
I am currently researching materials for a 300 level course I am teaching this fall concerning religion and the paranormal. I am specifically interested in locating secondary sources dealing with Buddhism and psychical phenomena and claims, particularly if these sources are philosophically critical in nature. Among the phenomena I will be discussing are: rebirth (of course), out of body experiences, telepathy, precognition, and psychokinesis. If you know of any monographs dealing with such topics as depicted in Buddhist scriptures (esp. of the Indo-Tibetan varieties), i would welcome your suggestions -- either on list or as a private e-mail sent to: mtadam@uvic.ca.
Good wishes - martin
