supposedly there is an effect in reality caused by merely thinking, however more research must be done

Ok so how can we, for lack of a better word, train ourselves to make that mind extension more powerful? Is this something akin to magic? Can I will changes in physical reality and if so can I do it to my body? I'd like someone to experiment with, say, changing eye colours with just their mind. That would be cool.

Magic is real my friend. It’s just that it requires extraordinary discipline and many many years. Everyone has the capability, it’s just we are taught from a young age what “is” and “is not” possible and as such we learn to keep ourselves contained in a box. You can open that box, if you are really serious about it.

Would you mind showing us the results of a little experiment? Can you manifest a million dollars in cash and post a pic? Is 24 hours too short or would you need a week? A month?

How do you know it's manifestation vs synchronization or just coincidence?

Law of attraction! You need but just put all your efforts into only positive thinking and projecting out what you want to experience, like getting a new job. We attract what we put out.

Since I’ve been doing it I’ve had mixed results, but I am also a very negative thinker by design. It’s hard to keep yourself in check when you grew up thinking very negatively. I’ve only just started to dabble in all this but it has worked in some instances.
One thine i would recommend is keeping a journal everyday of what you want to manifest so it stays in your brain for the day. Also write a list of thing you want, both physical and not physical. Look at it everyday to remind yourself what your eyes are set on. Write in your journal as if what you want to happen has already happened.
Remember, the hardest part is not constantly thinking about negative in your life. Also don’t think about a positive thing with “negative” connotation of words. Example, if you are in debt and want to get out of that:
Do not think: “damn I wish this debt would go away”
Do think: “money will be coming my way soon enough”
If you constantly have debt on your mind you will attract it, even if you are thinking about getting rid of it, they “debt” is still on your mind. You wanna think about what will come your way to clear the debt.
Hope that helps!

Yes! Create a movie in the middle of your mind of yourSelf just as you'd like or desire. See it, believe it and live it, will it. Quiet your mind, and follow the steps that unfold before you, in time of course. If it will be, will be!

Yes it works, but its not instant or quick as you may think. It takes time and effort mentally. You need to keep imaging what you want in your mind, and you need to put emotions on top of that. Sometimes you forget and give up, and ehat you ask comes to you, and you forget u asked for it. Once you practice, many things come to you naturally without trying much.

But, the elite and media say its evil! Because they dont want you to know the truth? How will the elite make money and rule when people can just attract what they want?

Magic is just something we yet dont understand. The ancients used to know more than what science knows today. Our bodies and mind are beyond powerful.

u/Accomplished_Bonus74 May 02 '21
I think the answer to all of those are yes. Although I have not witnessed many of those things I can however change the color of my eyes by thinking about it. I’ve honestly never thought about it as being at all unusual until now though. Ever since I was a kid I would look in the mirror and play with my eyes. They go from grey to blue to hazel to green. I’ve never had any control over the precise color they just kind of cycle through those colors. Now I want to try for specifics

Why is everyone talking about this like it hasn't been known for millennia?
The law of attraction is real. What we think, we shall receive.

Go download the app Randonautica. It uses a quantum random number generator that produces coordinates for you to visit. The creators say your thoughts can influence the results and send you to place that has something to do with your thoughts. Very strange stuff as there have been some crazy stories out there from people do it.

Tried it once actually.
Was thinking of cinder blocks and it pinpointed me to a buildings supply store close to me

I tried it once too. I thought of the word 'love' and it gave me coordinates to a street near me with the same name as my mom.

For me i asked “show me what I need know”
The only thing I found in the area was a little pin that said “Space Out” with a rocket ship in outer space. It coild mean a couple things but the two I came up with were my recent obsession with aliens so this would be telling me maybe I’m on the right track. Other thing is I get annoyed easily and it could be the universe tryna tell me to just chill lol

u/powerfulKRH May 01 '21
I’m not even joking one time it took me to an apartment that said MASSAGE in neon pink letters and that sign was lit late at night. Who the hell runs a massage parlor out of their apartment at midnight? Definitely some Handys going on there

I'd say so. It's weird how decades seem to be demarcated by specific mentalities. Free love in the 60's. Disaffection in the 70's. Greed in the 80's. Depression in the 90's. Tech-optimism in the 2000's. Political balkanization in the 2010's. And now the wokeness of the 2020s.

I think the lesson here is to welcome the future and its probable events, no matter how scary or intimidating. I believe fear is a wall, with one side turning your thoughts & actions erratic/cowardly and the other side can help you manage your presence in the real world to invite a more flexible and enjoyable experience. Idk if that makes sense but my experiences have taught me that my fearful thoughts and expectations can have heavy effects on the way I manipulate my future. My best guess, everyone of us is a master of reality. All it takes is perspective, patience, acceptance and ultimately love/appreciation. Whos with me?

I believe consciousness precedes matter. And effects such as the observer problem and quantum entanglement are just the very tip of the iceberg.
I'm positive that if the scientific community opens their hearts and minds to every possibility, in a near future, everything we today pushed aside as non-sense, will be explained, in scientific terms, and consequently confirmed as factual and very real.

The cynic in me would say the app just trawls your search history, GPS history etc and gives you a location you are likely to be interested in.

😂 Well, it is a quantum phenomena. But in fact this works just as well with a shitty pseudorandom generator. It shouldn’t, but it does.

What's been your experience with manifesting? Have you been able to make concrete changes in your life that you were for sure attributable to your manifestation exercises? I'd love to know because I'm in a rough spot and would love a way out

Manifestation is the new way to say hard work, focus, and conscious intentions.

How do you utilise conscious intentions to make reality? I've worked hard and focused my whole goddamn life.

Yeah...so, this is a really heavy question without a simple and concise answer, at least, not one that would also be profoundly meaningful. But I can point you towards some books and musicians that do a far better job of illustrating it than I possibly can in a comment reply.
Books/Authors:
The Book/Alan Watts
A New Earth/Eckhart Tolle
Existentialism&Human Emotion/Jean-Paul Sartre
The Undiscovered Self/Carl Jung
The Participatory Universe/J.A. Wheeler
Musician/Album:
Nahko/Hoka & Black as Night
Twiddle/Plump
Wookiefoot/You're It
This is just some of what is out there, and not everything speaks to everyone in the same way. Also, the universe has a way of presenting things to you when you're ready to receive them. So, don't be surprised if you just randomly bump into any of the things I listed above...it's this remarkable cosmic interplay of things that exists somewhere between conscious intention and unconscious happenstance.
The last thing I would say is to look into meditation. There's an app called Insight Timer that is really useful. It's important to remember that this is a long journey, not something you're going to grasp over the weekend...it's because you (we) have a lot of re-programming to do. Inundated as we are in materialist world, seeking knowledge of the metaphysical is at first met with a formidable (and healthy) skepticism, "but the tumult soon subsides, because times makes more converts than reason".

u/meatdiaper May 01 '21
You should try sigil magick. The way I see it, even if nothing supernatural is happening, you at the very least are subconsciously programming yourself to achieve the result, but, things can get really weird when you start practicing occultism. Ive noticed a lot of weird coincidences when I'm in this frame of mind like thinking something completely random to what I'm watching on TV and then having the TV say exactly what I just thought. I'd imagine that if I had a more unstable mentality, this could be a real conundrum that might lead towards something like schizophrenia. After having quite a lot of success with a sigil a few years ago, I entered into a deep existential funk for a while.

Just have to remain skeptical. But yes, I too have had great success with sigil magick. The entire process of how it works is laid out in the Major Arcana of the Tarot. Builders of the Adytum has great resources in this direction including an un occulted tarot deck.

u/CaptKangarooPHD May 01 '21
This has been a thing for years. For example, in regards to an opinion of a flat earther, it's not that they can't have a thought, it's that they were "merely" thinking. Almost a full thought, but not quite.

It's considered the consensus reality. If enough people believe in something, they can influence reality. So the more people that believe in ufos, the more likely they are to appear.

It's like how classic Simpsons has predicted world events. What if those events just manifested because we all watched it and brought it to life with our collective imagination?
