The Kinesis- (Powers of the Mind)Are Humans really capable of these "Powers"?

Text-only Version: Click HERE to see this thread with all of the graphics, features, and links.



The Prophecy
Psychokinesis (< Greek øý÷ï- + êßíçóéò, literally "mind-movement"wink or PK, also known as telekinesis (< Greek ôῆëå + êßíçóéò, literally "distant-movement"wink or TK, is defined according to the Online Medical Dictionary, published by the Department of Oncology, University of Newcastle upon Tyne, UK, as the following (used with permission): "the influence of mind upon matter, as the use of mental 'power' to move or distort an object." Psychokinesis may also be described by other names, such as remote influencing, distant influencing, remote mental influence, distant mental influence, and directed conscious intention.

Psi balls
A psi ball is claimed to be a psionic construct that is usually formed into a spherical shape by a practitioner of psionics, to be used in a variety of ways. Those who believe in their existence assert that they can be formed in a variety of different shapes, sizes and temperatures, depending on the creator's wishes and that they may also be formed at any location, even if the location is external to the creator's vision. Some people even believe these locations can include other dimensions, planes, or domains.

Psi balls are said to be capable of performing many different tasks, such as healing, protection, telekinesis, or sending short telepathic messages. The energy is said to come from both inside the mind of the practitioner and also from a variety of external sources, such as the Sun, the Moon and the Earth. "Energy" in this instance is a catch-all term for the unknown cause of the effects witnessed by practitioners of psionics. (see spiritual energy).

This subject is viewed with skepticism by most mainstream scientists and is considered pseudoscience because the nature of energy as defined by modern science does not generally support it being formed in or staying in a spherical shape without an enclosure of some kind. There have been no controlled scientific studies showing support for the existence of psi balls.

Many believers claim that psi balls are typically invisible and therefore may only be felt. However, people who claim to be skilled psychics claim to be able to construct psi balls that are visible to others, though there has been no proof of this. People who claim to be sensitive to auras also say they have the ability to detect invisible psi balls.

In many internet communities that practice psionics, the creation of psi balls is seen to be an essential skill and one of the first steps beginners may take in developing their psychic skills. On the contrary, many others who believe in psionics say that psiballs are a completely separate, unnecessary, or fictional aspect of psionics and should not be the first step a beginner takes.

1. Audiokinesis- Mental manipulation of sound waves. To alter a sound and that sounds frequencies, but mind the lack of potential of altering frequency itself. Alteration of an established audio transmitted signal. To comprehend this kinetic ability from more of a scientific point of view one should read up on Audiology, Sound Waves and Sound Theory. Paper Based on Sound Theory

2. Autokinesis - The mental manipulation of subatomic and atomic energies positive (positron), negative (electrons/negatrons) and neutral (neutron). Simply put, the ability to move and manipulate generalized energy with the mind. Gives birth to Thermokinesis. Give and Take. (Psi-Vampire& Psi-Recycle Vampire) Through positive, neutral and negative energy manipulation one can use those energies to heal others or just themselves. To comprehend this kinetic ability from more of a scientific point of view one should read up on Energy Sciences. Associated Miniscule Gifts: Psy-Vampirism, Alternative Definition and Technique

3. Chronokinesis- The mental channeling ability manipulating time-recording history and temporal order. To access chronological accounts of events in a successive amount of years (similar to retro/pre/postcognition). Modern physics states i.e. the fourth dimensions is time which brings up the question: Is Chronokinesis a force manipulation originating in the fourth dimension, that which is and holds all time, history, present and probable future events? I say, yes. To comprehend this kinetic ability from more of a scientific point of view one should read up on Chonology, and Time Theories such as the Fourth Dimensional Spatial Time Theory. (1)Alternative Definition and Techniques (2)Paper Based on Time Theory

4. Cryptokinesis\Hallucinakinesis: This is not a kinetic ability; this is merely a psychic ability primarily a form of Telepathic or Empathic Broadcasting or Suggestion in which the individual makes it appear he is invisible to others. This ability can be mistaken for Umbrakinesis in that in darkness and this kinetic can repel photons (light) as to create a shadow hiding them from view.

5. Dynamokinesis: Similar to Telekinesis, but is the manipulation of all of the four forces. (Electromagnetism, Gravity, Strong Nuclear Force, and Weak Nuclear Force.)

6. Gyrokinesis- This is not actually a psychic ability though some individuals do think it is by its name. Rather it’s almost a form of Yoga that works the entire body through 7 natural elements of spinal movement: forward, backward, left side, right side, left twist, right twist and circular, as well as all other joint articulation. This methodology systematically and gently works the joints and muscles through rhythmic and undulating exercises. Movement stimulates the body's internal organs and different corresponding breathing patterns are integrated. Basically body mechanics.

7. Hypnokinesis: Hypnotic suggestion via mental manipulation of theta waves in which are produced in the brain during deep trance. This entrancing ability is an actuality and tends to go hand in hand with pyrokinetics. This is merely the ability to send an individual into a trance like state and since it is one of the more chaotic of the kinetics it can be very unpredictable. Associated Miniscule Gifts: Empathy, Hypnotic Telepathy, Inexpert Oracular Abilities, Precognition, Telepathic and Empathic Broadcasting, Telepathic, Psipathy, Biofeedback, and Empathic Suggestion. Associated Enhancement Stones: Garnett.

8. Magnokinesis- An electrokinetic ability, harnessing and creating electromagnetic fields, or a breakedown of telekinesis in which gravity is not manipulated. To comprehend this kinetic ability from more of a scientific point of view one should read up on Electricity, Electromagnetism, Electrostatics and Conductors. See Electrokinesis and Telekinesis. Alternative Definition and Techniques

9. Quantakinesis- Quantakinectic abilities work with duplication mental manipulation. This ability allows a kinetic to increase and decrease “quanta” of energy and matter and works along the same science as cell division and cloning that surpasses modern science today. In beginning and even advanced forms of this ability it is only he minor atomic and sub-atomic being manipulated. To comprehend this kinetic ability from more of a scientific point of view one should read up on Quantum Mechanics, Quantum Physics, Cloning, and Mitosis. Paper Based on Quantum Theory

10. Sonokinesis/Echokinesis- mental manipulation instrumenting acoustic pulse in air and water bases to measure distances in terms of the time for the echo of the pulse to return. To comprehend this kinetic ability from more of a scientific point of view one should read up on Acoustic Pulse Reflectometry. See Audiokinesis.

11. Terrakinesis- A spin off of Biokinesis involving the manipulation of plant life and earthly forms such as stone via the mind. See Biokinesis.

12. Thermokinesis- Includes inexpert Pyrokinesis and Cryokinesis. In early abilities and inexpert ones this ability is only able to increase and decrease temperatures while an expert is able to freeze and catch fire to. To comprehend this kinetic ability from more of a physics point of view one should read up on Heat Radiation, Cryogenics and Thermodynamics. See Pyrokinesis and Cryokinesis.

13. Vitakinesis- This ability rejuvenates the healing of damaged tissue in the body and the mind through techniques listed as Latrosis, Mentatis, and Algesis. Most healers are able to use this form of ability at a smaller level and many more to help in the healing process. This gift would fall strongly under Quantakinesis for is works with cell division and rejuvenation of cells and it is a breakdown off of Biokinesis. In its advanced stages this ability can aide in complete recoveries for serious illnesses instead of just a form of continual treatment. Biokinesis.

My Opinion:
I believe Humans are capable of many this including this.However I aslo think Telekinesis is the base of everything else.

Aerokinesis
Biokinesis
Cryokinesis
Electrokinesis
Geokinesis
Hydrokinesis
Lumokinesis
Psychokinesis
Pyrokinesis
Telekinesis
Umbrakinesis

there is more to come.....

i would have to see it to believe it.

The Black Ghost
So I have been practicing my Hika-waja earlier today (the art of reading minds in ancient mayan) and the same questions keep coming to my mind...

Why is nothing happening?


Time to face the facts: if you cant do it with voodoo, you can buy it on ebay for a cheap price from some guy in Peru.

The Prophecy
I know where your coming from.But I still have had strange ecounters.

Rogue Jedi
example.

The Prophecy
I give you one example of my encounters with psi balls.I actually tried it a few times. However I gave up because I had a hard time concentrating.But I remember while doing it one day I began to meditate and place my hands in front of me like I was holding a ball.Then at one second or so I felt heat and energy being drained from methrough my fingers and to the palms of my hands. I really thought it was weird.

Rogue Jedi
not very convincing.

The Prophecy
I'm not trying to convince you. I'm just telling you what I know and have done. But if there is anything else you would like to know or something you have to tell me feel free to say it.

Rogue Jedi
i know you arent trying to convince me. i am just saying that if it were me that had happened to, i would have just shrugged it off as imagination.

The Prophecy
Yeah I see what you mean. It's just It felt weird and I was very tired and drained after that. That's the part that suspenses me.

http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k268/Qezel360/psi.jpg Our energy is very powerful if one can concentrate enough. I believe it. It's part of creating as in the creation process. I believe we all can do these things to some degree and I know people who can do it quite well. People use this energy in healings also ..

Easily the most fascinating subject that has always got me thinking. I am actually creating my own story universe revolving round human evolution.

You should see the anime movie Akira and of you like that read the huge manga - it looks at the ultimate stage of humanity - the idea that all of use have in our DNA, memories throughout evolution that enable us when we are awoken to harness powers attributed to ESP
If you are interested in Telekinesis and the hidden power of the mind I highly recommend it. The movie only goes into it a little but the manga through 6 volumes explains it in a lot more detail.
If you wish it I will write down here the theory of "The Power" that is shown in the Akira manga and you can see what you make of it?

Regarding all these kineses: it could be that quantum mechanics is involved, that living things, theoretically, can influence the wavefunctions of their bodies and the environment. Such a kinesis is more will than mind.

you know some real pofessional martial artist of any other form of mind and soul have claimed to master being one with themselves and having unlocking these hidden potenials.
There also an article about a Super Phyisic Children Institute in Asia.

No. You've been watching too much anime.

How old are you, btw?

Why does this type of stuff always have to do with anime? Theses type of studies have been going on before anime came to be.

It's totally sci-fi and Hollywood. Scientists should spend their time studying worthwhile.

Where do you think they get there ideas from? All they do is exagerate it more.Also I believe that it is really important to know what we are capable of. However that's my opinon,and yours is yours.

I have no proplem lisiening to other peoples opinions(I'm not saying your talking about me).It's what makes things more interesting. I can only tell people what I know and think,and I never think I'm always right. I try to be as kind and respectful as possible to give others a chance to speak.

Such a kinesis is more will than mind. Yes I believe it is possible. The stronger the intention of it the more strength it has. This is why many zealots that pray can do many things. But you really don't need such a belief, it's all intention. Many levels of vibrations effects other levels of vibrations. All and everything has a vibration, and if you get down to the subparticals all things flow into each other. All is connected, some vibrations are just more dense than others.

Akira99
Originally posted by The Prophecy

Ok, here goes. You'll need to really concentrate and focus to understand it. Some of it probably won't make sense and may confuse you It is mostly from the FAQ on the official website but I have edited it a bit to make it more concise:

Main Theory:

Example 1: If you hold a stone above the ground and release it it will fall to the ground. While it follows the laws of nature it is DESTINED to fall to the ground.
Now imagine that the natural laws predetermine the future of the whole universe, not just the stone's. Impossible as the chaos theory defeats this model.

Example 2: Imagine yourself when you were just a mere zygote. At that time your gender, hair and skin colour were already a fact as well as parts of your character. Whatever you do depends on A] Your genes and B] your environment
Genes and to a certain extent, environment are only information.
And you do this and that, write, contruct etc. only as a result of this information.
Its impossible to predict your future actions but think about simpler life forms e.g. ants. Their behaviour is mostly controlled by their genetic code. And it's almost possible to simulate an ant colony on a P.C.
So future events depend on information. But where does this information come from? As far as your hair colour is concerned, from your parents. But the origin of it goes back to the beginning of time.

So now we've got natural laws and information. As mentioned before, this is not enough to explain a predermined future. There is something else.

The Flow which the Universe is in

The flow carries the universe to a final state. e.g. At the time of its birth the universe was very small. All the matter/energy was very concentrated. The universe constantly expands so the concentration decreases of course. The final state is reached when concentration reaches zero. But this stae cannot be reached forever and the flow will continue carrying us with it.

The Power wants to stop the flow. No-one no matter how powerful they might be, could stop it. The flow controls the whole universe and the earth itself is only a tiny grain of sand compared to it. However, if a human is able to use The Power, this person can stop a small part of the flow, though not for long. It will return to its original path with double force. So it will hit back on the originator of the disturbance. It will not cause the Power to deteriorate. The disturbance will not vanish that easily. Instead the flow will mess up with the Power with strange events as a result. Akira himself after 'dying' is not in the flow as he is in his own universe separate from the original.

Back to the theory:

Important: Natural laws, as far as we know are only a part of it. The other part is not physical but its the more important one. It carries us and our world away to a final destination of the universe. The flow's energy originated at the birth of our universe, the big bang. And its this kind of energy which can't be explained by natural laws and logical considerations.
The flow can be compared to an ordinary river and for example you are sitting in a boat floating on it. So far, natural laws, information, maybe even more components like the 'gradient' explain why the river flows. But of course, the river comes from somewhere and leads to somewhere. Whereever your boat might flow now, the place where it was before is still there. So is the place where its going to. The point is that the flow should be seen in its entirety. Do not just look at the present but also be aware of the past and future.

Where does the Power come from?

The Power isn't a form of physical energy. You will not find it with all sorts of measuring instruments. The Power comes from within people. You may call it ESP though the Power gos far beyond the ordinary ESP theories. Human beings are living mass memory entities carrying tons of information concentrated on a small space.
The idea is that people carrying the memory of earlier events or facts within them, more than the memories of their childhood for example. You can go back in evolution and further back until you reach the beginning of time. There are parallels to the flow theory aren't they?
These two things are actually the same. People carry a small part of the energy of the flow within them along with the information in their genes. People who can use the Power unwittingly take advantage of this fact. They separate themselves a bit from the flow, which means they separate 'their' part of the flow's energy from the rest of it, and are able to disturb it a little from that different state. For example if you manipulate an object with your mind, you are altering its path within the flow.

I hope this gives you one perspective of how it could be possible for humans to use psychic powers. Its more about using their genes - in the movie Tetsuo's power is awoken when he crashes into a little boy who is a psychic and subsequently has experiments done on him to cause a chain reaction in his DNA by stimulating parts of his brain with electricity and salt.
I really wish Peter Jackson would make a live action movie of Akira .
You may also get a perspective in the anime Elfen Lied where pink haired horned girls manifest telekinesis through use of limited invisible arms called vectors which they use to dismember humans - though its not really about theory of their power but more about the cruel evil humans and the all too human diclonius whos superior genetic traits are stimulated by inhumane treatment and cause them to become homicidal - human evolution] - more story less theory with extreme graphic violence and nudity . Not really my cup of tea. The most information you ever get is that the 'vectors' are controlled by the 'pineal gland' in the brain - a gland often associated with hidden psychic powers e.g. Yoga the 3rd eye or chakra

no, not really

mutants in Marvel have no similarity to those in reality

besides in X-men a small piece of ruby-quartz can abzorb the most powerful energy blast that can be produced by any X-man (how does that work?)

if you start cliaming comic book physics have any place in reality I really have to question claims you make about real world physics

Akira99
Yeah granted X-Men isnt that good in this sense. Like all that Jean Grey and Professor X using telekinesis and telepathy isn't explained well as far as I have seen

This kinda stuff could be possible though quantum mechanics states that observing something affects its outcome maybe some people can affect things differently to others

Yeah......Kinda cool.

i read it in a book that was the only thing i remember it was about going back in time would be dangerous or summat
