Is Telekinesis Real or Just Science Fiction? is Mind Control Possible in real life?

Is Telekinesis Real? When the infamous fictional character, Carrie White, left her high school prom hall ablaze and brought terror upon her town, she relied on her powers of telekinesis, the ability to manipulate physical objects using the power of the mind alone.

But while Carrie is just a fictional film based upon a fictional book, belief in telekinesis isn’t fictional at all.

For centuries, humans have claimed they really do have the power to control the motion of objects using only their minds. Levitation, opening doors at will and spoon bending are all intriguing examples.

It happens in the Matrix when Neo freezes bullets midair, and it’s a skill that Yoda has honed to a T.

But is telekinesis real, or just as fictional as Carrie, Yoda, and Neo combined?

is telekinesis real?

To investigate, we need to evaluate telekinetic claims through a scientific lens using the scientific method. Telekinesis is part of the discipline called parapsychology, in which researchers study psychic phenomena. Parapsychologists regard what they do as a science, but other scientists disagree.

Is telekinesis possible? Let’s start with a few basic observations.

Observation #1

While there are loads of anecdotes out there about telekinesis, there’s no scientific proof that it exists; no studies conducted according to the scientific method and repeated under lab conditions can show that it’s real.

is telekinesis possible?In the 1930s, the so-called father of parapsychology, Joseph Banks Rhine, tested in the lab whether people could use telekinesis to make a dice roll the way they wanted it to. But afterward, scientists couldn’t replicate his results, and since replication is key to proving an idea, that was a problem.

Aside from scientists, there are also countless self-proclaimed telekinetics, but all have been exposed as tricksters, or can’t perform under conditions where they’re not totally in control, suggesting that they manipulate the situation to get the results they want. Today, there’s even a huge stash of prize money available from lots of organizations for anyone who can prove that psychic abilities, like telekinesis, are real. But these riches remain unclaimed.

Observation #2

When we investigate telekinesis, there’s no consensus about what exactly is being measured. Are powerful, Yoda-like brainwaves at work perhaps? Since nobody agrees, it’s difficult to apply a research standard, something required in all other types of science to test the validity of ideas.

Observation #3

The point of science is to discover the unknown, and in the history of scientific investigation, it’s definitely happened that new discoveries have gone against established science, and even overturned whole branches of science. Such discoveries must be proven extra carefully to withstand skepticism. In the case of telekinesis, the idea goes against established science but lacks the powerful evidence in favor of it. Our universe is controlled and explained by the laws of physics, and one of these laws tells us that brain waves can’t control objects because they’re neither strong nor far-reaching enough to influence anything outside of our skulls.

Physics also tells us that the only forces that can influence objects from afar are magnetic and gravitational. Probably the closest thing to telekinesis that science can explain is the use of thoughts to control a robotic arm. In the brains of stroke patients who can’t move, researchers can implant tiny wires into the region that controls movement, and then train the patient to concentrate on moving a robotic arm, which acts as an extension of their minds, and it works. It’s amazing, but it isn’t telekinesis. The patients’ thoughts aren’t just vague, undetectable things. They’re measurable brain signals, translated through wires into a robot.

Science can measure, test and explain the motion, and that’s how we’ve shown that this kind of mind control is real. Science is a slow process of accumulating the evidence that either stand for or against an idea. When we stack up evidence, we can see which tower grows tallest, and in the case of telekinesis, it’s not the tower showing that it exists. Some say this mystical phenomenon can’t fit within the confines of science, and that’s okay.

But then telekinesis becomes purely a matter of personal conviction. If something can’t be assessed scientifically, then it can’t be described as scientific either. So the results of our investigation reveal that however much we may want to believe that the force really is within us, the case for telekinesis remains weak.

Sorry, Neo, Carrie, and Yoda. Your skills are mind-blowing, but for now, they belong in the movies.

People are attracted to meditation practice mainly for stress relief and peace of mind, but it can go beyond that to a means for discovering for yourself the answers to deep questions through your own direct inner experience.

The deep rest experienced during practice allows the body to naturally dissolve stress and strain. After the session, students feel less stressed and notice that they deal more calmly with tense situations.

Comfortable clothing you would wear to a fitness session.

What should I expect from a typical lesson?
Lesson starts with a discussion of the practice, as you begin to settle into a comfortable position. You can sit on a chair, stool or on the floor, this is a personal preference. Lying down is not recommended as sleep usually follows quickly. We begin the meditation by being aware of your natural breath.
When the meditation practice has started, you listen to the voice of the instructor’s voice as it guides you through the techniques. Each practice is divided into two sections; we work with a technique and afterward just sit in the quiet the practice has created. We then move onto the next technique. Our focus with each technique is to discipline the mind to focus on one action at one time. Ending the lesson will be questions-and-answers and a short talk covering the basics of meditation, emphasizing how these can be applied to daily life.

Synchronicity

Living coincidences

Living coincidencesWhen we live our lives, we often disregard the unknown forces that bring us to do certain things or go to certain places. Perhaps at times, we have a rational explanation for that what we do in this moment, or why we have done it, but are we always sure that our reasoning corresponds to reality?

Could it might not be that our way of being makes us do things unconsciously or visit places that are important for our future lives without realizing that, without knowing why we go there or why we do that, besides from the evident reasons. Well, one of such a force, which happens often in our lives, is termed Synchronicity.

what is Synchronicity?

Extract from Wikipedia:

Synchronicity is the experience of two or more events that are causally unrelated occurring together in a supposedly meaningful manner. In order to count as synchronicity, the events should be unlikely to occur together by chance.

The concept does not question, or compete with, the notion of causal events. Instead, it maintains that just as incidents may be grouped by cause, they may also be grouped by their meaning. Since meaning is a complex mental construction, subject to conscious and subconscious influence, not every correlation in the grouping of events by meaning needs to have an explanation in terms of cause and effect.

C.G. Jung extract from Wikipedia:

His most notable ideas include the concept of psychological archetypes, the collective unconscious and synchronicity. Jung emphasized the importance of balance and harmony. He cautioned that modern people rely too heavily on science and logic and would benefit from integrating spirituality and appreciation of unconscious realms. He considered the process of individuation necessary for a person to become whole. This is a psychological process of integrating the conscious with the unconscious while still maintaining conscious autonomy, Individuation was the central concept of Analytical Psychology.

Cosmic order

The idea of Jung’s synchronicity is that the conceptual relationship of minds, defined as the relationship between ideas, is intricately structured in its own logical way and gives rise to relationships that are not causal in nature. cosmic ordering
These relationships can manifest themselves as simultaneous occurrences that are meaningfully related, as ‘cause and the effect’ occur together.
(From several persons, it is postulated a Cosmic ordering that is the belief that individuals can use their desires to “connect with the cosmos” and make those desires become reality, the idea is connected to the New Age movement and other concepts such as the Law of Attraction.)

Soft and hard synchronicities

In the preface of C.G. Jung’s book “Synchronicity” he gave an explanation of how he intended synchronicity:
“We can understand synchronicity in two basic senses, one “soft,” one “hard.” Soft synchronicity is simply making a connection between an event and one’s existence.
The book does not emphasize much with soft synchronicity because soft synchronicity is perfectly straightforward. “If one is acute, sensitive, intelligent, on the lookout for insights into life and the world, including his own life and his own world, one will be dealing with soft synchronicity on a regular basis.
Hard synchronicity on the other hand is another issue entirely. It derives from the work of C.G. Jung. Raising the discussion to patronizing religious and philosophic statures and it contends to the following:
Remarkable coincidences are not necessarily fortuitous, unexpected or accidental. The universe, in fact, may be disposed to stimulate hard synchronicities because the universe has a formal or integrative bent which corresponds to, or “touches,” the human being’s formal or integrative bent.
Not only are psyche and matter are in contact, they are in meaningful contacts, the kind that produces revelations”.

Cosmic phenomena

Jung was never clear about his own religious beliefs. But this unusual idea of synchronicity is easily explained by the Hindu view of reality. In the Hindu view, our individual egos are like islands in a sea:
We look out at the world and each other and think we are separate entities. What we don’t see is that we are connected to each other by means of the ocean floor beneath the waters.
The outer world is called Maya, meaning illusion, and is thought of as ‘God’s dream’ or ‘God’s dance’. That is, God creates it, but it has no reality of its own. Our individual egos they refer to as Jivatman, which means individual souls.
But they, too, are something of an illusion. We are all actually extensions of the one and only Atman, or God, who allows bits of himself to forget his identity, to become apparently separate and independent, to become us. But we never truly are separate. When we die, we wake up and realize who we were from the beginning: God.
When we dream or meditate, we sink into our personal unconsciousness, coming closer and closer to our true selves, the collective unconscious. It is in states like this that we are especially open to “communications” from other egos. Synchronicity makes Jung’s theory one of the rare ones that is not only compatible with para-psychological phenomena, but he in fact tries to explain them.
Your life’s coincidences
Have you never thought on the subject of these questions? Have you never acknowledged that sometimes you go to places or make things that made you meet someone or recognize some important point of your existence that leads you further on your way through life? And do you have never recognized that something has guided you to do so because exactly in that moment of your life were it necessary for you to live this event?

Most frequently, we acknowledge such events only later. After several times when we realize that exactly this or that event or encounter brought us to do certain crucial things in our lives. But it is true that these occurrences where these events were necessary to bring us forward to a new life dimension(s), to new recognitions which were in one or another way important to us.

Such synchronicities are more significant for us than we can imagine because they lead us to the necessary and crucial experiences on the way through our lives. The more we are open to such forces, the more we can develop our existence and reach our own spiritual goals of our lives, because we’re living in the flow of our true nature.
However, for perceiving such forces, we have to live in the flow of our true nature and live in the flow universe so we can have the chance to know ourselves. How can we really know ourselves sincerely? Through… meditation.

Self Healing, How The Body Actually Heal Itself

 

The Power of Self Healing

This article is about healing and I would like to discuss a few ideas with you. I am a metaphysical counselor, teacher, and healer. I have written this guide for people who are concerned with their health and would like to take an active part in assisting their own healing or in maintaining their health, it doesn’t matter what your disease is if you chose to work with these ideas your health is sure to improve.

I once heard a definition of health that made a lot of sense to me.” Good health is having no fatigue; having a good appetite; going to sleep and awakening easily; having a good memory; having good humor; having precision in thought and action; and being honest, humble, grateful, and loving. “How healthy are you?

Self Healing
Self Healing

The mental patterns and our behaviors

I don’t heal anyone, the work I do is to help people understand how their own mental patterns are constantly creating their own life experiences; all of them, the good experiences and the so-called bad experiences, and also how the same mental patterns are contributing to the ease and dis-ease in their bodies.

Life is an echo. What you send out, Comes Back

We do not want to be ill and yet we need every disease we have, it is the body’s way of telling us that we have a false idea in consciousness. We are being told we are on the wrong track and need to change the way we think.

Every illness is a lesson for us to learn; please do not just complain ‘I want to get rid of this condition.’ It will not create the healing you want nor will you learn the lesson you need to learn. This is not a time for condemnation or for creating more guilt. We are just looking at what needs to be released. This is a time for healing, for making our lives in our bodies whole. I know you have within you all that you need to accomplish this.

The universal Law of Attraction

Once we begin to understand this process, we are able to take conscious control of the changes we wish to make in our lives. This is a very exciting process and becomes one of the most important adventures in our lives. I believe there is a center of wisdom within each one of us and when we are ready to make positive changes in our lives, we attract whatever we need to help us.

The very fact that you have discovered this article means that you are already in the process of healing yourself. Something inside of you has shifted and the healing process has already begun. You might even say that to yourself now “I have already begun the healing process”.

The body like everything in life is a mirror of our inner thoughts and beliefs. The body is always talking to us if we will only take the time to listen. Every cell responds to every single thought you think and every word you speak. Continuous modes of thinking and speaking produce body behaviors and postures and ease or dis-eases the person who has a permanently scowling face did not produce that by having joyous loving thoughts. Older people’s faces show clearly a lifetime of inner dialog. How will you look when you are elder?

You see it is my belief that it is our birthright to be totally healthy and totally fulfilled in every area of our lives. I want to help you claim this birthright now.

Some of the things I will suggest to you may sound very simplistic; however, these ideas have been tried many times with great success. They really do work, please use these suggestions in addition to the work you may be doing with a doctor or other health professional. It will be helpful to you both.

Take a nice deep breath and if possible allow yourself to be in a comfortable position. Just let these ideas wash over you, only those ideas that are right for you will be accepted by you. It doesn’t matter whether you understand them all or not or if they make sense to you right now.

Is an Illness Self-created?

I believe that all illness is self-created, not that we say I want to have this illness but we create a mental atmosphere where this disease can grow and flourish our internal mental dialog reacts in every cell in the body.

I heard a physician say recently ‘if the surgeon operates on a patient without doing something to help them change the cause of the disease, the all the doctor is doing is prolonging the life of the patient until the patient can create another disease’. You see we need to do more than just treat the symptom. We need to eliminate the cause of the disease, and for that, we need to go within ourselves where the process of illness began.

We are responsible for every experience in our lives

It is my belief that we are each 100% responsible for every experience in our lives, the best and the worst. We create our experiences by the thoughts we think and the words we speak. The universe totally supports our inner dialog, our subconscious mind accepts as truth whatever we choose to believe. You can say it, either way, they both mean that what I believe about myself and about life becomes true for me. What you choose to think about yourself and about life becomes true for you and we have unlimited choices about what we can think.

When we are very little we learn how to feel about ourselves and about life by the reactions of the adults around us.

It is the way we learn what to think about ourselves and about life. Now if you lived with frightened people or with people who were very unhappy, then you learned a lot of negative things about yourself and about the life you may still believe them.

Can we blame our parents?

However, this is not to blame our parents, for we are all victims of victims and they could not possibly have taught us anything they did not know. If your mother did not know how to love herself, or your father did not know how to be gentle and kind, then it would be impossible for them to teach you to love yourself or to be gentle and kind. Your parents were doing the best they could with what they had been taught as children.

I Believe That We Choose Our Parents

I also believe that we choose our parents. Each one of us decides to incarnate upon this planet at particular points in time and space. I believe we do this because we have chosen to come here to learn a particular lesson that will advance us on our spiritual evolutionary pathway. We choose our sex, our color, our country, and then we look around for the particular set of parents who will mirror the pattern we are bringing in to work on in this lifetime.

Often when we grow up we point our fingers accusingly at our parents and whimper ‘you did it to me’. But really we chose them because they were perfect for what we wanted to work on overcoming, as very little children we learn our belief systems and then we move through life creating experiences to match our beliefs, look back in your own life and notice how often you have gone through the same experiences.

The Point of Power Is Always in the Present Moment

Well, I believe that you created those experiences over and over because they mirrored something that you believed was true about yourself. It really doesn’t matter how long we’ve had a problem or how big it is, or how life-threatening it is, the point of power is always in the present moment. This means that what you have experienced during your life and up to this moment, you have created by your own thoughts and beliefs of the past. However, what you are choosing to think and believe and say today right here and right now is creating your future. Your current internal dialog is creating tomorrow, next week, next month, next year, etc.

Notice what you are thinking at this moment; do you want this thought to be creating your future? Is it negative or positive? Just notice and be aware. I am NOT trying to create guilt for anyone, nor to make anyone wrong. I am making us aware of what is going on inside of us.

Many of us who create illness and disease are in fact totally out of touch with what is going on in our minds and in our bodies. We only notice our bodies when we become ill or are in pain. If we do not know what is going on inside of us, how can we ever change?

No matter what the problem is, the only thing we are ever dealing with is a thought, and the thought can be changed.
