Yeah, when in doubt ask your conscious self and wait for your bodily intuitions answer. I personally feel minor excitement whenever it's a yes to whatever question i've asked, or a mild form of anxiety when the answer's a NO.

You'll notice those feelings kicking in every day life whether you're asking yourself questions or not, i feel like a human lie detector sometimes, and using intuition it's very easy for me to work out how people are feeling regardless of whatever front they're putting up.

I'm gonna' check out your link now  :-)

I'm sorry if what i'm saying's a little random, the little VOICE is exactly how i refer to what i've just said ^ and what i use in every day life.

What baffles me is that you don't feel this is a normal occurrence? Every can do this, it is only a few that actually do it. Then again, you do feel things strongly. At this point its probably a totally unconscious(ie our of your awareness) process, yet by noticing the differences in the way people talk with you, the different subtle inflections of their voice as well as the visual changing of the skin tone and color alongside body signals. What happens, kinda like how good spellers spell (They make pictures of the words and check their feelings to see if it is right). You make a mental map of visuals with sound comparing the interaction compared too all others you have had, and unconsciously get the reaction in the form of a anxiety feeling that signals something is off.

It is possible to calibrate these abilities to make them stronger and more reliable.

I am just wondering, how do you know the difference from a Mental Illness(aka, not being able to control something that effects your reality) and Your Telepathy, which you have no control over?

Does it only work when that person is around? Or can you hear them from anywhere on the globe?
Where does the voice originate in your head? The left, front, right, behind, below or above? What other sensations do you get when it is happening?

My reasons for asking is purely curiosity. I mean people hallucinate all the time, but that does not mean they are crazy, its only when those hallucinations have a 'mind of their own' that it becomes a problem, and the person is helpless to stop them. Many times it  is because they view it as happening to them and not happening from them. And to them the lines between reality and hallucination is blurred to the point where they can believe in the hallucination.

So if you really have telepathy, what I posted earlier will still work, esp, for those negative naggy voices that tend to show up and make you feel bad. Hell, you could put some transmitter knobs on that control panel and tune into people easier with you telepathy. Pretty much its a way for your conscious mind to tell your intuition or unconscious mind how it should do something, and using symbolism to do it.

No i am pretty sure the voices are in your head. I have a friend who is schizo and he heard other people's voices calling out to him. He (at the time he was committed, cuz i was there) heard the voices of people he knew coming from the fields behind his house and would search them for hours looking for them.
Take some deep breathes and close your eyes and focus on your breathing for a minute or two.
Now, imagine a control panel in your mind that controls the audio in your head. See that there is a volume knob, a tone knob, a pitch knob, and even a pan knob(its in surround). Fiddle with these knobs and see if you can get those other peoples voices to either be quite by turning down the volume, say things in different tones, change the speed to really slow or super fast with the pitch knob or move the location of where these voices originate.

Now those voices are changeable and under your control. It is your brain and its funny that they did bother you, but now that you know the secret to your brain, you have the rest of your life to look forward, or right, or up to.

then how do you explain the fact that i "felt" an old girlfriend approach my door when i had no clue she was coming over. or text messages i get, i always happen to open my phone as i get one. or when my cousin calls me. i look at my phone, it rings and its him on the other side.

Because your conscious mind is only a small percent of your total awareness of what is going on. I trust that you don't actively think about walking, talking, breathing, your heart rate or immune system etc.

People can actually get to the point where they can actually know what someone is thinking by feeling it as it were.

Just remember that the map is not the territory. I'll explain. You create internal representations of the real world inside your head based on the information brought to your brain by your senses. For example I can tell that your primary representational system you employ most is kinesthetic or feeling. I find this simply by noticing the predicates that you use to describe your reality. You use action words, combined with feelings to deal with the world and then to a lesser extent you use auditory or visual.

As for cell phones. For me, I know before my phone starts ringing because I actually feel the micro waves through my body. Its strange to describe by I can feel em. they actually make me feel a little sick tbh.

Also, don't dismiss the power of your own beliefs. Its like when some says they notice 11:11. Its not that it happens more frequently, its that you have trained yourself at an unconscious level to look at the clock at that time, because you may believe that it has some kind of meaning. The same goes for you thinking that you have a special sense of when something like that happens when its more then likely you creating that expectation, or simply remembering that event as something that may have only existed in your head to begin with.

Now, don't frett. I do not have all the answers, and it is very possible that on the bases that everything is energy and that it possible to detect that energy. If it is possible to pickup on that energy, then it is still at the unconscious level, at least for most people.

Its called a trance. You go in and out of the all the time. Its all about an extreme focus of mind. IF there are times when you can just go automatic(like riding a bike or driving a car for instance) then you have the ability to do that every time, its just you have to remember to access those states specifically, and you will be able to get the same results. I am both a writer and a musician and I never have trouble writing anymore since learning this little secret.

If you write from a visual sense, as in seeing a picture in your minds eye and then writing the descriptions of it, then all it takes is the focusing of that picture, possibly making it bigger and brighter so that it pops out at you more when you want it to. If you operate writing from a more audio sense, as in hearing a chattering voice that is telling you the stories and words thorough a dictation like sense, then I'd suggest that you focus on that voice being louder and more defined in articulation.

What was the point in deleting my well thought out and insightful post? Unless of course people cannot handle the truth, in which case I have to say, wake up and stop living in a fantasy land where everything is other peoples fault and never your own.

Anyways, to paraphrase my post from before, it's your subconscious/unconscious picking up on the subtle hints and body language given by those in the "link". The more you are in sync with someone the more apt you are to think similar thoughts and feel the connection.

For example I have had GFs that I knew they had been thinking of breaking up with me because I felt that the connection (represented by a feeling located where the heart chakra would be) felt like an empty gaping hole of pain. Then I find out that day, or a couple of days later, and I had already accepted this sign and they always had been surprised as I already knew. Now I am not going to claim that I have super pychic powers because it seems ridiculous for me to claim something so unprovable, (like saying I know there is a God when I can't), yet I can verify that my unconscious picks up on the subtler things that I may not become aware of and it decides when I should know about situations by telling me in its own certain way. It is just learning to hone into those signals that give people the delusion that there is such thing as Psychics, which unless you change the definition, is not a real life thing.

the thing is that they are essential the same results but one method is slower(meditation) and one is quicker (hypnosis). The thing is that hypnosis is a very focused state as is meditation, as I have done both and know the differences.

I am not getting defensive, just clearing up some misconceptions about the subject

Sure! ^.^ I always thought of a "casting a spell" as thinking about something and putting a lot energy into it, then sending the thought with the gathered energy off to do what you intended. It basically falls along the lines of: if think of something hard enough it's more likely to happen.

What you're talking about is putting someone into a trance, and then using the power of suggestion on them.

Am I right?

YES! that is really what a spell is. You put someone into the suggestible state and leave them with a post hypnotic suggestion. Trances have been used like this for centuries although many people didn't understand how it worked, just knew that it did. For example the christian church uses hypnosis to install horrible things that cripple peoples minds. Look at how Islamic Fascist Radicals are convinced to kill themselves.

To curse someone is to get them to accept a negative belief about themselves. Psychiatrists do this all the time to people. They say, oh, you are depressed, and its very hard to get through. You will need to come here once a week so we can dig up painful memories and make you even more depressed. They leave believing they are depressed and that they can't change it on their own and they keep coming back and leaving more depressed then what they were. It happens to phobics. I read this one case where a therapist (who was trying to help but did the opposite) was helping a patient who came to him with a phobia of heights. The therapist had him think about the phobia and then to think about something he enjoyed doing. IF you know anything about Pavlov's dogs, this was the same thing. The therapist was creating an association between his phobia and things he enjoyed to the point where the patient left with agoraphobia (the fear of leaving you house). To me, that is a curse.   

Your method is like prayer. You can put all the intentions you want into the universe but that never guarantees that what you will to happen will ever happen. When you do things that are proven to work and get results, you are  going to achieve your desired results. Creating intentions in your mind and vividly picturing them in you mind is useful to the point that it helps you get things done in a positive way. That is actually proven by people who are successful and those who are not. Its like some people think "THE SECRET" is only about imagining but not doing anything to achieve the goals you want. It has to be thoughts cause actions, so think only of things you want to happen and you are more often going to do those things. If you make horrible images of approaching the opposite sex, then those are more then likely going to happen, whereas if you go into the situation creating positive pictures of success then you will have that and more.

I've used hypnosis to reach meditative states, but it's my own personal thinking, willing, & feeling through meditation that has led to experience. I think it's all a matter of what method works best for you. One person's method might not work as well for someone else. Hypnotists say that not everyone can be hypnotized. Your nail gun might be someone else's wrench.

The only hypnotist that say that are bad hypnotist. Milton Erickson could hypnotize anyone. Richard Bandler is also another example of someone who can hypnotize anyone. The reason some hypnotist believe that is from a study they did where they played the same bland hypnotic induction for a bunch of people. That isn't how hypnosis works. It is completely subjective and the hypnotist has to tailor the induction to the person being hypnotized. If they notice that what they are doing isn't working, then they will go another route for success. If someone is said to have a mental disease that cannot be cured, then why diagnose them with it? That just implies that they cannot be helped, which is something that is not very useful to believe.

Think of what I am talking about from a pragmatic point of view. If it takes you 4 hours to meditate and get to that certain state of mind, wouldn't it be much easier to reach that state of mind in 4 minutes? Then you would have more time to do the things you enjoy besides meditation.

As for the replies about self hypnosis. Such things that you may have learned may only be one path to the goal. The more you know about the brain and how it functions the more benefit you can achieve through hypnosis. Its like this. Meditation is like using a saw to cut down a tree. Yes it is proven to work wonders and it does get the job done. Why not use a chainsaw and save yourself the time and get all the same results? Can there really be a benefit to wasting time? I don't think so.

Its kinda the same line as PSYCHOtherapy. It's very slow and as humans we learn very quickly. Its like if you have a flip book that is of a little animation and as you flip through it you see the animation and see how it works. Therapy is like a person giving you one frame of the animation at a time and expect you to notice how it changes. Nobody learns to be phobic over time, it is instantly. One minute they are not and the next they are. Another good analogy is sheet metal. If you bend sheet metal real slow it will pop back into place. When you snap it really quick it stays bent, this is how change occurs in the brain.

I hope this helps you understand why a little bit better.

There are other ways to get rid of depression. NLP is one example of a technique that works.

Think now of a time when you feel depressed because you aren't depressed when you sleep. So the feeling of depression is often linked to internal pictures(or movies slides etc), negative self talk voices, and a feeling that starts in a certain spot and moves and then loops back in order for you to keep feeling depressed.

Put yourself into a very focused state of mind(trance) and imagine seeing those depressive slides, or movies or pictures becoming further away from you getting smaller and darker. Do this quickly. You may or may not find that this changes your voices and it may decrease the feelings you have for this picture. IF you change the tone, location, and speed at which your negative voices speak the effect will diminish. Finally for the feeling aspect. Take a moment and find where that negative feeling starts, then imagine pulling it out of yourself and spinning it in the opposite direction, change the colour of it and put it back in spinning faster then before. IF followed correctly you will begin to feel these changes.

Firstly, I am almost certain that you have no Idea what hypnosis is, how it works, and what you can do with it. I have read sites like the one you provided before. The names given to the states are just alternatives for the ones used in hypnosis. There is such things as light trances, Ie daydreaming (stage one focus) then there is a deeper state and even deeper- until the conscious mind is so distracted and shut off that all that remains is mostly unconscious processes (the conscious is still active but not doing anything) the deepest level of trance in which most phenomena that is amazing is achieved (like catalepsy, negative[not seeing something that is there] or positive[seeing a pink elephant] hallucinations, removing pain/sensations, vivid recall of any past event(unless the unconscious decides it is too painful to relieve) etc. That deepest state is called somnambulism

I have learned Hypnosis in the process of learning NLP(Neuro-Linguistic Programming) which essentially has become a set of tools created from modeling peoples inner processes and techniques to achieve an end result. One of the originators of NLP, Richard Bandler, tells a story about meeting a yogi/tantra master who he asked first how he achieved bliss states and the like. After the guy told him he would have to join and learn Richard descibes the story as taking the tantra master and holding him over the cliff and saying tell me how you do it or I'll let you go because I don't have 10 years to wait for you to tell me the secret. A humorous story and the point is that I had already read such things as Robert Bruces NEW and also merkaba, kundalini meditations and the like and had been practicing them. I found that the descriptions of the motions of energy from the tantra master to be the same things I was attempting to achieve but now I can do such things with ease by putting myself into a deep hypnotic trance and changing, creating and experiencing a more clear, focused and accelerated state of mind.

So to put it as an analogy, instead of picking up an instrument and figuring it out as I go, without any instruction, I learned from a trained professional and  have mastered it.

Astral Projection seemed like a pipe dream for me, but now that I learned how to disassociated multiple layers, I have gone even further. I have not heard of anyone instantly changing beliefs through meditation but I can do it now with ease. SO why comb the beach with a rake when you can use a metal detector. I am sure you will say that it's the inner journey that matters, well, if its going to take me years to achieve what I want through meditation, or minutes/hours/days to be there and further with hypnosis, I'm going to take the more direct root because as a finite being, I only have a finite amount of time to live and I'd rather not waste it. The brain is a wonderful thing that can do many amazing things, and although you can still put a nail into wood with a wrench, I'd prefer using the hammer or better yet, the nail gun.

If you want to effects without doing too much just learn hypnosis. It is the same as meditation. Its all about an intense inner focus. Milton Erickson was the best so look it up and I'm sure you'll be happy with what can come from it.

personally...i don't see anything wrong with being a false medium...it gives hope to people, even false hope is better than none at all.

All mediums are just cold readers, manipulators and covert hypnotists. LYING TO SOMEONE ABOUT TALKING TO THERE BELOVED DEAD IS AN ABOMINATION.

If you have ever seen Derren Brown's Messiah, then maybe you'd understand how someone with techniques can convince anyone of almost anything.

Gurus do the same thing. They get you all to meditated(putting you into a suggestible state) and then filling your mind with useless garbage and then you keep coming back because you feel enlighted when in fact you have just been carefully manipulated, probably because you're very gullible and naive.

If I wanted to, I could become a guru or medium, I certainly know enough about the occult and new age mysticism to convince anyone of my credibility. Then I'd just hypnotize them or do some guided meditation(same thing) and subliminally tell them that they want to support me and give me(the source of their enlightenment) all focus and money. I can even change believes.

Honestly I would never do that, because I have changed myself to be a positive and pragmatic person, but that doesn't mean that there aren't people out there who would use these things against you.   

So in conclusion, as it is a fallacy to claim super powers, I support the bill to get rid of these horrible leeches of society who make their living exploiting people and their instilled beliefs for their livelihood.

Subjective time distortion is possible. I am sure you have been having fun and realized the time was passing at an accelerated pace whereas during a time while waiting, it seems as though time was crawling so slow. These are time distortions and although you cannot change the pace at which the clock ticks, the way in which you perceive the clock ticking can be slowed. Many people describe moments of extreme stress as in slow motion. An accident, a robbery, or anything that would cause the release of adrenaline. I am pretty sure that some martial artists use such things while fighting so that the motions of the opponent seem slower which makes it easier for the reaction.

Such a thing was done to someone in a very very deep hypnosis. They had the person able to slow down time and actually beat a black belt because they could easily avoid the attacks.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by dissociations.  =\

A friend taught me a meditation technique, and I applied it to my voices.  Basically when a thought enters the mind(or a voice), just label it as a distraction, and let it fade away.  It's been working very well for me, and I've found my voices have reduced in frequency and intensity immensely. 

All meditations are hypnotic trances. What I told you to do is EXACTLY the same thing you just described except you are not aware of what you are doing. We represent thoughts with pictures sounds and feelings. The aspects of these representations are known as Sub-modalities. For instance, the size, brightness,location and distance of the pictures effect you differently. Think now of a pleasurable memory and notice how the aspects of the picture, feeling, and sounds are. Are they in black and white, a moving picture or a slideshow? Does the voice come from the front, the side or behind? The tone is sexy, angry, frightening, happy, optimistic. Are the voices really loud or quiet? Where do those feelings start and where does it move to after. Which way does the feeling spin, forwards (from origin through you and out from you and back to origin) or inwards (out of source and into you looping through your body to the origin). What color is the spin?

These are some of the aspect of experience we internalize. A good exercise is to find a spot where it "doesn't matter", ie when you go to a restaurant and are choosing something, doesn't matter. Or whether you where a blue shirt or black shirt. Something that could be or could not be and it doesn't really matter. Then find those pictures and push them way out into the distance and bring them back with the same modalities as the "doesn't matter". do it really fast 7 times in a row and you should have changed the scary  to the doesn't matter.

I would like to hear what you think a spell is, because I have studied occult type rituals and such which I found to be the same thing as hypnosis.
#17
Actually it is casting a spell or cursing. Once in the suggestible state (some people are always in it) then you have bypassed the critical factor (the part of you that judges suggestions and commands) you can place any kind of harmful suggestion. If you have ever seen a hypnotist then you understand that people are unaware of what they have done usually unless the hypnotist gives them a post hypnotic suggestion to remember it.
I know, I have and can do it. Most of the stuff people do on here can be considered hypnotic trance stuff. Vivid imaegry is one.

Why I say this is to get you to think from another angle or perspective. If i put someone into a trance I could start suggesting that they are in a cold box, and it starts to shrink, and they are getting colder and colder the closer the box gets to them. TO them, it will be as real as if they were actually in a box getting colder. Now at the same time i can do positive things, which is what I actually do, in where I usually generate states of bliss of beyond orgasmic proportions. Words are digital representation of things we have experienced, and even things we could imagine.

You may think "Yeah but you can't just go and hypnotize someone easily" and the answer to that is in a single handshake, and you can go out, and comeback a completely different person.
#18
Its fun to believe that you can channel spirits and such, but realize that you believe is about as real as believing you can channel a unicorn, dragon, fairy.

The things you construct in you subconscious are real to you though. There is a part that you labeled this mystical being and you brain plays along since it is a believe. You can cold read and pretend to talk to dead people, but that doesn't actually mean you are. Does that make sense?

OMG best Sharpe fight ever. I love these.  I seriously can't stop laughing. But anyway, on the actual topic.

I'm of the belief that thought = power, so if you just think that the spells or w/e won't work, they won't. Don't let them have any power over you.


Actually that isn't entirely true about believing. Thought defiantly is power but do you know how that is?
I literally can cast a spell on someone simply because I know hypnosis, and in that very suggestible state, you can really do some damage to people. At the same hand, we have 'spells' and 'curses' put on us all the time , if you watch any tv that is. The Trance state occurs naturally and happens very much in the normal everyday life. The difference from writing a letter to driving a car is 2 different states of mind. The power of words is astounding simply because they are symbols that represent meanings to your brain.  Some words you can only interpret through feeling them, such as soft or comfortable etc. IF i truly wanted to spend the time to, I could put in schizophrenia, obsessive compulsions, amnesia or  get rid of them just as easily. The real power is in the brain, but the sad thing is, people are not told how to use it. I think its mostly because mindless sheep are easier to control then individuals.
#20
Just because you consciously don't know what is happening doesn't mean that your unconscious mind is oblivious as well. How do you think subliminal works. Hell you could have actually heard her coming to your house and subconsciously knew that the timing to ring the bell would be then, and actually your unconscoius mind led you to that imagery to let you know. And your room? well if she knew it was dirty before, then she could have just been asking.

If you learn how to read people like I have you can have "psychic" powers in knowing what people are thinking because their bodies actually give off signals that you can learn to recognize.

well.....i have one thing to say.....demons are not restricted to the astral or subtle plains of exsistence......i was attacked by on in my own home.
Noone was home but me......i was in the basement.....i was playing around with my psionic energy....then i was hit pretty decently....enough force to burn a cresent moon shape burn mark on my shoulder balde and dislocating my left arm......after a moment or two.....after realising what was going on.......i popped my arm back in and saw a pair of red glowing eyes.......i threw a few psi balls at them as i tryed to escape up a flight of stairs.....
{still have a scar on my left shoulderblade....}

This was back a few years ago.....and when i got to my room later on after a little bit outside trying to see what was going on.....i  started to violently spasmed, as if my body was being electrocuted.....and i dont remember much after that for about 2-3 weeks after the attack.... So demons, or neg entities....can and do enter this plane of exsistence......and its not for a joy ride in a park either.....

That sounded like you had a seizure, and you forgot about it. Probably dislocated your arm whilst having one. LOL
#22
Since you are more then likely already in a deep trance, well most of the time, you hear the voices, but I am more then sure not only are the tone of the voices different, they are also in different places in your head. I'm guessing probably the left side mostly. I know Neruo-Linguistic Programming and Hypnosis, and I have heard all about schizophrenia. One way of getting over your problem now is by altering those voices, which are all created by your brain(no wonder they know how to scare you so much). One method is to make the voices sound sexy or sensual, because saying it like that makes it hilarious instead of frighting. Even as I read your post you have shown me many things. Or if you would prefer, just imagine a knob, that is their volume control, like a amp or a stereo, and turn it down. Your unconscious understands what I am talking about even if you don't really. If there are images, just white them out or make them darker and further away, smaller and smaller until their effects are gone and your no longer feel it.

I know some people think that the mind/body split is a real thing but I am telling  you this as a fact that the mind and body are very connected and therefore if what you are thinking about makes you feel sick, sad, or what else, stop thinking about those things.

Are those really astral projections or dissociations you are having? dissociation can be beneficial if you are smart about ways to use it.

I'm pretty sure Bob is a fake. I am pretty sure he hypnotizes his crowd and implants suggestions to them. A good source of evidence of this is that he makes they crowd watch videos of him exorcising other people, thus, implanting the idea of how to act while the exorcism is being performed.

Well i would say to just take the colors as your guts dircrect you, because that is what the colors mean to those people, because that is how they see them. For example, If you think that anger is purple, you would see someones anger in their aura as purple becuase that is how your mind will relate it to you.
