I had some experience of training for psychic development, I was interested in metaphysics.. Subtle energies we have not fully understood as yet, I was in fact sceptical. However, at the end of the course, I had experienced things that really were impossible to explain... No tricks! There are always charlatans but there are secrets in this universe we have yet to label. Keep an open mind I say!
@kevtb8749 жыл бұрын
That's amazing! You experienced things that were impossible? Why haven't you informed the world? You could be a billionaire within a year and go down in history as the person who found and proved the supernatural. People could study this and confirm without doubt that yes, it IS truly impossible. You could revolutionise out understanding of physics, humanity, and reality etc. Society as we know it would changed overnight. Holy shit! Or maybe you are one single person who is mistaken..... Hmmmm.

As long as science has no fundamental understanding of the nature of reality we will have these unscientific ideas put forward. It is not what science can do or explain it is what science cannot explain that is the problem! Science has no understanding of why we have a future that is always uncertain and a past that we can never change. If science could explain this based on reason and mathematics it would help replace these unscientific ideas!

The barnum statements experiment / reading experiment Derren did just shows how almost-identical we all are. But yet people often think 'oh that's a me thing!', any time you think or do something you think is unique to you, you can bet that probably 95% of others think or do the exact same. So, even this within itself, if you know this, you could fake being 'physic' quite easily by just thinking of inner thoughts or fears or ambitions you have, then just say them to someone else like you know it's true of them, and it'll feel like you're reading them

@MountcastleFilms That's an interesting theory: everything is part of something larger. Talking about the video, whenever someone says something hurtful to you, though you may be strong enough to outwardly deflect it, the internal "hit" will penetrate even deeper. Talking to a good friend afterwards can help, but what we really need to do is to find the best friend inside ourselves so that we may break a negative thought pattern at its root.

a way to avoid the problem of simply inventing names and waiting until someone in the audience recognizes it, is if the psychic chooses a person beforehand and then says the name. If that is the case and if someone has seen that happen, the evidence is much more convincing.

Off topic but as for the old Chicken or the Egg debate goes - Chickens evolved from non-chickens through small changes caused by the mixing of male and female DNA or by mutations to the DNA that produced the zygote. These changes and mutations only have an effect at the point where a new zygote is created. That is, two non-chickens mated and the DNA in their new zygote contained the mutation(s) that produced the first true chicken. That one zygote cell divided to produce the first true chicken.

@jmann114 "But the same could be said for people who insist they are just hallucinations." the burden of proof lies with the person claiming that it wasn't just a hallucination. "but the people who have experienced clinical death always come back with something to share. And it's not just abstract images/sounds. Some of them have reported and proven that they were consciously aware of what was going on around them." clinical death is not brain death, and nobody comes back from brain death.
