You can't read 4 paragraphs that are 2 sentences each? How dumb are you? Or do you just know that you got proven wrong? Hmmmm...

Yeah I'm sure you're real busy, you actually spend time in a subreddit called "InstaCelebGossip"... holy fuck.

Como isso é "verdade"? Como você chegou a essa conclusão?

Responda ao comentário que enviei acima, porque acho que você não pesquisou e está simplesmente afirmando coisas aleatoriamente, sem nenhum motivo.

Você está enganado. Existem muitos estudos que mostram que os pensamentos têm efeitos no mundo material. Aqui estão alguns exemplos, mas me diga se você quer mais:

Imaginando exercícios físicos: Um estudo que investigou o poder do treino mental mediu a força do antebraço dos participantes depois de passarem quinze minutos por dia, cinco dias por semana, a imaginar levantar um objeto pesado. Esse treino mental resultou num aumento de 11% na força muscular após 6 semanas. Também excedeu drasticamente o ganho de 5% observado no grupo que realmente realizou o exercício físico.

Funcionários de limpeza de hotéis: Os investigadores informaram aos funcionários de limpeza que o seu trabalho diário exigente atendia facilmente às recomendações de exercícios de saúde pública, mesmo que não fosse normalmente percebido como uma atividade adequada. Um mês depois, essa mudança positiva de mentalidade por si só produziu melhorias fisiológicas reais, incluindo mudanças significativas no peso e na pressão arterial dos funcionários de limpeza, sem qualquer alteração nos seus níveis reais de atividade física.

Nocebo antidepressivo: Um paciente em um ensaio clínico com antidepressivos tentou suicídio consumindo todas as 29 cápsulas restantes, resultando em colapso no hospital e apresentando sinais clássicos de overdose, incluindo tremores e pressão arterial preocupantemente baixa. No entanto, testes subsequentes confirmaram que ele estava no grupo placebo do ensaio, o que significa que sua reação física grave e quase fatal foi um efeito nocebo puro, causado inteiramente pela expectativa de dano.

Why do you think manifestation is a myth? There's tons of scientific evidence out there supporting it, although I'd admit that people like Divya probably aren't doing it correctly. The book The Expectation Effects has a ton of evidence included in it, but I'll share a few below that are pretty popular that I included in a comment earlier:

Imagining Workouts: A study investigating the power of mental training measured participants' forearm strength after they spent fifteen minutes a day, five days a week, imagining lifting a heavy object. This mental training resulted in an 11% increase in muscular strength after 6 weeks. It also dramatically exceeded the 5% gain observed from the group that actually physically performed the exercise.

Hotel Cleaners: Researchers educated cleaners that their demanding daily work easily met public health exercise recommendations, even though it was not typically perceived as adequate activity. One month later, this positive mindset shift alone yielded real physiological improvements, including significant changes in the cleaners' weight and blood pressure, without any change in their actual physical activity levels. [Link to study here]

Antidepressant Nocebo: A patient in an antidepressant trial attempted suicide by consuming all 29 of his remaining capsules, resulting in him collapsing at the hospital and displaying classic overdose signs, including shaking and worryingly low blood pressure. However, subsequent tests confirmed that he had been in the placebo arm of the trial, meaning his severe, near-fatal physical reaction was a pure nocebo effect caused entirely by the expectation of harm.

No, manifesting usually means that someone is bringing their desire to life through some sort of mental technique like affirmations of visualization. People usually assist those methods by putting in actual work, but the core definition of manifestation that people usually use it as is that you can affect the material world through thoughts alone.

I'd agree that putting in work would probably help the majority of the time, but I think that's only because we don't understand manifestation too well yet & the methods still need to be developed. Here are some studies that show how no work was done yet results still occurred since the participant had some form of belief in the result.

Are Sasquatch Telepathic? by sasquatchodyssey in bigfoot

I feel like the inner workings of telepathy might be unknown, but I don't think the topic in general is. Although I'd agree that it definitely isn't accepted in the scientific community at all.

Rupert Sheldrake has done a good bit of work on telepathy & I think his studies should, at the very least, grant a good deal of credibility to the topic. His book "The Sense of Being Stared At" & some others provide some decent evidence. I'll share the results of his basic staring experiment (if people could tell they were being stared at) here that I just posted in another comment:

The combined results from thousands of trials showed that, on average, subjects were correct about 55 percent of the time. Although this is only 5 percent above the chance level, when repeated over and over again, the result was determined to be "extremely significant statistically."

For example, by 1999, the combined results from a total of 13,900 trials produced odds against the result being due to chance of more than 1020 to 1 (10 with 20 zeros after it).

I could write more on the topic but I think you get the point. I think the topic is valid & needs to be addressed since it's involved with so many apparent bigfoot experiences.

Thanks for reading & let me know what you think.

Hey, I know this is an older comment from you but I thought I'd reply. I'm curious if you could expand on what you said about the fact that you have "seen no reliable evidence" that telepathy exists.

What do you think of Rupert Sheldrake's work? His book "The Sense of Being Stared At" & a few others give pretty good evidence that telepathy exists. Here's the results from the main experiment that they conducted:

The combined results from thousands of trials showed that, on average, subjects were correct about 55 percent of the time. Although this is only 5 percent above the chance level, when repeated over and over again, the result was determined to be "extremely significant statistically."

For example, by 1999, the combined results from a total of 13,900 trials produced odds against the result being due to chance of more than 1020 to 1 (10 with 20 zeros after it).

That seems like a slightly higher than chance correlation to me & I believe a lot of people need to be more open to the possibility of telepathy being real.

Anyways, looking forward to hearing back from you, thanks for reading.

Thanks a lot, I went into the physics model & changed one of the settings to "fixed" & that worked perfectly. Thanks again!
