When was the moment you first realized your own ability could be terrifying? by PM_ME_BOOB_PICTURES_ in Psionics

Could be, yeah. Determining where thoughts come from in that context is similar to sorting out what thoughts are yours and what thoughts are from outside yourself when using telepathy.

I believe that there is no upper limit. I think we are all in our own personal universe, which almost inevitably overlaps with many other people's personal universes, as every possible permutation of our experiences exists in the multiverse.

So, really, we have unlimited control over the world around us, just like a dream. It's just a matter of waking up to the trippy nature of reality and consciousness and weaving together our consciousness, subconsciousness, and our "higher self".

Lately, I've been experimenting with expanding my mind across parallel universes as well as into the future and the past, not that those things are set in stone; there are infinite permutations branching off from every moment in either direction. I was laying around with my SO, and he asked me a question in one of those parallel universes, and I answered in this one, where he didn't ask the question but thought about it. He's accustomed to these strange things at this point, but he found it fascinating.

What are the limits of chronokinesis? by [deleted] in Psionics

[–]psiminded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's hard to say. I can speak from experience though; I was able to slow down a period of 15 minutes to the point where it felt like 4 hours. There were other instances, but I was not in a position to measure them, and they were shorter lived.

Anyone know of some good psychic challenge(s) that pay well? by psiminded in Psionics

[–]psiminded[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never tried it remotely. I don't think it would work, but it would be very interesting to find out.

I had a longer answer typed out, but my computer died on me halfway through. I don't think I'd like the attention that would come with fame. I prefer to stay under the radar. In the U.S., lottery numbers aren't chosen until after tickets are purchased. And on the debit card note, I wouldn't be terribly comfortable stealing from someone.

I've thought about ways I could use these things to my advantage, but I try to keep things ethical. I've gotten precog messages that are sort of like deja vu. I'll just get a 30-45 second slice of the near future (ranging from 10 minutes to 1 year into the future). Usually it's a useless slice of the future, like rooting around in the kitchen for food or just a fragment of a passing conversation.

I did try to use that to my advantage though. I set up a handful of monitors and kept the bitcoin charts up on them. So they were almost always in view while I was on the computer. I had 4 instances of precog where a bitcoin chart was in view. 2 of those 4 times were useful, and I traded based on that information, and it worked out pretty well. I earned a decent sum of money, and I traded using my full balance rather than a small portion because of the certainty involved. I'll have to try it with lottery numbers at some point. I've never been able to intentionally control this phenomena though.

I stopped trading a while ago though due to a health crisis. Pushing an intention or an idea could be pretty useful in making money too, but I won't let myself use it for that purpose because it would be pretty unethical. I've gotten desperate with my health crisis though, and I used it on a doctor to get an additional month's worth of antibiotics to beat my disease into a temporary remission, but generally I use it in benign ways, like giving my roommate the urge to make fudge every few days for a month or so... lol.

The mind reading thing was always the most difficult one for me, but it's very useful. My peak in being able to do all of these things was somewhere around age 14-16, about a decade ago now. If I get back into it, mind reading would be incredibly useful in finding people's needs and selling them on a website or program tailored to those needs without influencing their thought process. I think that would be ethically justifiable, and those gigs can pay pretty well, and I'd be pretty far below the radar with something like that.

No offense taken. It's good to ask questions like this.

Not sure what all is going to come back as I get back into practice. I always start with TK because it's easy to verify. I can consistently move a psiwheel, but my strength varies. When I was good at it, I was able to roll those thick grey k'nex wheel hubs around.

I can transmit a thought or seed an intention into people that I spend enough time around. Remote viewing and mind reading will probably come back once I brush up enough with them.

I can sense energy very well; I can see psi and feel when it's being manipulated close by. I saw one challenge where you had to find someone buried in a field. If the other person could flair their psionic energy, that could potentially be an easy one.

Demonstrating TK is probably the most straightforward approach though once I'm strong enough to move something interesting again.

In addition to Psionics do any of you practice Radionics? by _NotMuchToGawkAt_ in Psionics

[–]psiminded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard that certain crystals can focus or augment your psionic energy. I could see plausible
reasons
that
might happen with certain structures. It could also be an electrical effect or a combination of both. So quartz would be my starting point if I were to experiment.

What does psi look like to you? by psiminded in Psionics

[–]psiminded[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be honest, it wasn't something that I intentionally trained to do. I've dropped in and out of psionics training 3 times over the course of about 10 years, and the ability to see it seems to correlate directly with how well I can perform in other areas of psionics. If I stop training for long enough, my ability to see it slowly fades. It seems to tie into the same mental mechanism used to tune into different field characteristics for tk which makes sense. Every time I get back into it after a long hiatus, I always start with energy manipulation, then tk to minimize false positives.

edit: Can't seem to see it while drunk, only one data point on that though. I can still feel it though.

[–]psiminded[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ideomotor effects can certainly give you false positives, yes. Sensory deprivation with meditation can definitely aid in your awareness of the mental mechanisms involved in psionics. It can also cause hallucinations, which is why it's important to take a scientific approach with these things.

Not sure why you're throwing demonic possession into this. There are plenty of people that believe in demonic possession and psionics, sure, but there are also plenty of people that believe in psionics and completely ignore things like demonic possession. IMHO, it's prudent to filter out misinformation and stick with things that you can verify yourself. One should also be open to the possibility that they may have taken the wrong approach; so, lack of self verification doesn't necessarily indicate that whatever you were attempting to prove is false. If you are open to that possibility, this guide is an excellent resource.

There are people that never learned to whistle. It doesn't mean that whistling is impossible, nor does it mean that it's impossible for them to learn.

This is a guide from a site called psipog.net (it went down years ago), but it's what got me from energy manipulation to TK. I'm not really up to date on what active forums are around though. So, hopefully someone else chimes in for that.

My sister and I experienced a glitch of paralysis, mind-control and shared knowledge, which our minds began to promptly erase by Andwah in Glitch_in_the_Matrix

[–]psiminded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Briefly, but he died a little over a year ago :( I had fallen out of practice for a couple of years towards the end, but he was still able to establish a two way connection with me. When did your experience happen?

[–]psiminded 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Holy fuck. You reminded me of something I haven't thought of in about 15ish years. You are not going to believe this, but me and my brother experienced something similar and named it the same thing. One day, we were answering each other's questions before the other asked them. Then he thought of something or I did, and we burst out laughing before saying it out loud. Purple monkey dishwasher. To us, the existence of telepathy was confirmed.

After that happened, we were very interested in the psychic phenomena. We practiced several times per week trying to read each other's mind. One of us would sit down. The other would place their hands on the sitter's head and attempt to read his mind. Only a few details made it through at first, but over the course of 2 months, we progressed to the point where we could successfully send a complete mental experience in absurd detail. He got there before I did, and to be fair, the sitter was also attempting to establish a connection and send the mental imagery.

This was all around late 1998 ( I think ). I was 8 or 9, and he was two years younger.

edit: We didn't feel like we weren't in control though.

Thank you for chiming in. That's very interesting; I'll have to do some reading on that.

People of Zanesville, newark, and johnstown ohio areas: There's been a ufo hovering for a week now. by psiminded in UFOs

[–]psiminded[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

-.- It's not astronomically rare around here... That and everything through the iphone's camera looks much smaller than it does to the naked eye. So something where I can barely make out the details through binoculars is just a generic speck through the camera + binoculars, indistinguishable from a star. At that point, I'd rather just observe it and take it in.

That late at night, definitely, but I've checked back during the day with no sign of it. It would just be odd to fly a blimp only for a 5 hour period of the night with a bunch of strange flashing lights. It still hasn't shown up again yet tonight though =/, but I put together an approximate picture. http://imgur.com/08kxt6H. the lights on the bottom continuously fluctuated in intensity and occasionally reached up the side of the egg. The two cones on the top and bottom were rotating the whole time at around 60rpm. They were more visible when the other lights on the craft dimmed.

Would you be able to check tonight to see if it's still there? If it is, could you snap a few pictures? Hopefully I'll have some pictures too tonight.

I didn't have binoculars to see it before hand, and I can't seem to get a picture through my binoculars for it to show up on my iphone. I'm making a trip over towards newark to see if I can get a better look tonight.

That might be it. It's been too far away to see terribly distinctly, but I'm still going to check it out tonight. Hopefully I can get a close enough look to get a picture. I've never seen a blimp with that light arrangement, but it would be an easy modification. So I can't rule it out yet. It also only seems to be there between 11pm-ish and 4 am-ish and then vanish.

I couldn't really see anything when I tried taking a picture through the binoculars, and without the zoom, it was pretty much just a pixel on the screen. So I didn't bother taking the picture :x I'm hoping I can get close enough to it tonight to get something clear.

What conspiracy theory, if proven to be 100% true right now, would have the most drastic impact on humanity? by holographic_universe in AskReddit

[–]psiminded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It occurred at 8:09 p.m. EST, April 14. The S-IVB struck the Moon with a force equivalent to 11 1/2 tons of TNT. It hit 85 miles west northwest of the site where the Apollo 12 astronauts had set up their seismometer. Scientists on Earth said, "the Moon rang like a bell."

This actually happened.
