Telekinesis is an extraordinary power that some people possess. The human brain is complex, making it capable. Out on the internet, videos and articles will be found on to train the mind the power of telekinesis. There is also more than one type. Where it may not seem to fit into our everyday lives, telekinesis is real. Telekinesis is the ability to move objects with your mind. Some people do not believe in such a supernatural occurrence. If they do not have experience with it, they will automatically say it is not real. Then there are the people who are either gullible or superstitious. They believe anything and everything they see or hear. They are the kind of people who read something on the internet and automatically flip out about it. …show more content…
Marc Breedlove decided to explain why telekinesis is possible, especially with the recent obsession with the Netflix series, Stanger Things. The show is set in the 1960’s, and at this time, doctors were really set on figuring out if telekinesis was real. They used experiments, such as seeing if the patient could affect the roll of the dice or not. “The human brain is the most complicated machine in the universe” (University, 2017). The brain is made of many brain cells that all work together. These brain cells are the reason for our strong emotions and that is the key component to telekinesis, having a buildup of anger or fear, with that you can do anything, like flip a van over. Our brain is so complex. Who is to say that it is not capable of more than it already is? Our brain can even learn how to develop …show more content…
There are six easy steps: must stay relaxed, believe that it is true, visualize, practice, be patient, and improve you concentration every day. First, to come to full relaxation meditation is a good start. It is not required, but it will help relax the body and strengthen concentration. “False beliefs are a well-known obstacle to achieving anything” (WLP, 2015), which brings us to our next step, believing. The mind must know it is real and can be done. Visualization means to become one with the object you are trying to move. Feel the object and make it a part of you. Practice makes perfect like they always say. Taking 5-15 minutes of the day can be tedious, but it will improve the power. The more practice put in, the stronger it becomes. Finally, just be patient. This process is not learned overnight. It takes all the steps listed above to finally master telekinesis. There is not just one version of telekinesis either. There are three types of telekinesis. Telekinesis is also known as psychokinesis. “The word is derived from the Greek words for mind and motion” (Radford, 2017) First, there is the ordinary being able to move objects with the mind. Then there is precognition, which is to know the future. Thirdly, there is telepathy. When a person has telepathy, they can describe things at a remote location. It is important to remember that there is more than one kind, because they are still tied to telekinesis,
In order for a body to move, a muscle has to be activated by an electrical impulse. The electrical impulse sends a message to the parietal lobe, frontal lobe, and cerebellum. The message then works its way through the spinal cord next to nerve pathways to the muscles which activate movement. Kinesthetic arts to stimulate motor activity. Motor activity is followed by swift thought processes that set goals, predict outcomes, analyze variables and complete movements.
Carr mentions the affect that technology has on the neurological processes of the brain. Plasticity is described as the brains response through neurological pathways through experiences. The brain regions “change with experience, circumstance, and need” (29). Brain plasticity also responds to experiences that cause damage to the nervous system. Carr explains that injuries in accidents “reveal how extensively the brain can reorganize itself” (29).I have heard stories in which amputees are said to have a reaction to their amputated limb; it is known as a phantom limb. These types of studies are instrumental in supporting the claim that the brain can be restructured. Carr asserts that the internet is restructuring our brains while citing the brain plasticity experiments and studies done by other scientists. I have experienced this because I feel like by brain has become accustomed to activities that I do on a regular basis. For example, I rarely realize that I am driving when coming to school because I am used to driving on a specific route.
By contrast, our thinking (neocortex) human coping brain has the ability to learn and use language. These functions require the linking of learning brain cells we call neurons. These microscopic, multi-functional neurons are building blocks not only for thinking and learning, but for deciding the way we behave. Thinking brain makes possible our organizing and planning abilities. It also enables us to figure out the meaning of our emotional experiences, such as why we are upset or hurt. The meanings of emotional experiences are what we call our
Physicalism is true. Physicalism claims that everything is physical, and that everything can be exhaustively described and explained by physics. Physicalism implied that it is possible to describe and explain every feature of, for example, a human being and every type of behavior a human engages in using only the conceptual resources of physics. An argument for physicalism derives from the success of scientific endeavor. The inductive argument for physicalism is as follows:
The human brain can react in much the same way. Neurodegenerative diseases are telltale signs of a "glitch" in the neural mechanical processes within the brain. Thus, pathological problems of the brain demonstrate how the brain controls movement and behavior. It is evident in the physical as well as emotional behavior. (5) It also illustrates the interaction between the central nervous system to the peripheral nervous system. There must be connections between neural activity within the brain and the rest of the central and peripheral nervous systems. One can also understand an illustration of the brain as being a "box" composed of interconnected smaller boxes. These integrated boxes in turn demonstrate the concept that, "Brain=Behavior=Being."
re, innovation to speculation, the human brain is a jumble of nerves and tissue like no other. It has not only brought humans to the front of the world stage in comparison to all others, it has given us the ability to do so much more than think it gave us the ability to be human.

Steps for concentrative meditation, (1) find a quiet place, (2) sit in a comfortable position upright, (3) find an object to dwell on, for example your breathing, or on a particular word that is repeated, (4) a passive attitude, meaning do not get upset when distracting thoughts
Concentration and mindfulness are also considered fundamental components in mindfulness meditation. Concentration is the ability to focus on an object be it external or internal, without interruptions. In simple terms, this can be achieved by literally forcing our minds from attaching to any one thought or sensation. Mindfulness is more of a gentle awareness of what is occurring in the present moment. In union, these two techniques allow the self to center in on the true nature of reality. Of course this is no simple task and requires a lot of patience, persistence, consistence, and mental
These three areas are divided into eight steps to attain enlightenment, which ends suffering and escapes from the cycle of rebirth. Concentration is important in meditation as it is observed to clear the mind. The main three steps for concentration are; right effort, concentration and mindfulness, which concentrates on mental development, develops good thoughts and enables them to gain calmness. Thus, these steps develop insight into the true nature of phenomena or reality, eliminates greed, hatred and disbelief. The pathways are different, but help them to change from superfluous to good decent
Imagine a world where numbers, letters, tastes, and sounds have color. Imagine a world where letters and numbers have personalities. For a synesthete, this is their world. Synesthesia occurs from a cross wiring in the brain. Instead of one sense being used in a particular action, multiple senses are used. Although little medical knowledge is known about the condition, it is fascinating and continues to impact our world.
The brain is an amazing thing, but it’s also such a weird thing. We just have this 3 pound ball of nervous tissue inside of our skull that helps us walk, talk, move, solve problems, write, read, imagine impossible situations that will stress you out at 4 AM , feel emotions, stores memories, and so many other incredible things.
There is no exact way to meditate. Different people meditate in different ways. However, there are many similar guidelines or ways that people go about meditating. First, put your expectations aside. Don’t expect to all of a sudden have your consciousness altered. Be open to meditation but don’t try to force something to hap...
Physicalism is the philosophical position that everything which exists is no more extensive than its physical properties, and that the only existing property is physical (Stoljar, 2015). This theory posits that the mind and mental states are no more than physical properties. There are two categories of physicalism: reductive and non-reductive. Reductive physicalism claims that all mental states and properties will eventually be explained by scientific accounts of physiological processes and states. Behaviourism (mental states are just descriptions of observable behaviours), Identity Theory (mental states are brain states, pain is no more than synapse X), and Functionalism (mental states constituted solely by their functional role, can be sufficiently explained without a physical medium) are all examples of reductive physicalist theories.
Physicalism is the position that nothing can exceed past what is physically present, and what is physical is all that there can be. This idea is reductive in that it suggests there is no more to the universe than physical matters, including brain processes, sensations, and human consciousness. J.J.C. Smart explains sensations as a means of commentary on a brain process. He believes that, essentially, brain processes and what we report as sensations are essentially the same thing in that one is an account of the other. He writes in “Sensations and Brain Processes” that “…in so far as a sensation statement is a report of something, that something is in fact a brain process. Sensations are nothing over and above brain processes,” (145). Though
Tactile, or touch feedback is the term applied to sensations felt by the skin. Tactile feedback allows users to feel things such as the texture of surfaces, temperature and vibration. Force feedback reproduces directional forces that can result from solid boundaries, the weight of grasped virtual objects, and mechanical compliance of object and inertia. Tactile feedback, as a component of virtual reality simulations, was pioneered at MIT. The term haptics in its broadest sense relates to the study of touch and the faculty by which external objects or forces are perceived through contact with the body. The word itself derives from the Greek haptikos, “able to touch”.
