Weird stuff I believe in

We've all seen threads where people talk about things that they believe in that others are skeptical about. I thought it might be kind of interesting to do a kind of roll call on who believes in what. Not looking for discussion or proof in this thread, although it might lead to some interesting spin offs. Just thinking it would be interesting and fun to see who believes in the same stuff you do.

For example, I DO believe in:

• Ghosts or some manifestation of energy left over from when a person passes.
• Spirits, similar to ghosts but not necessarily from deceased previously living individuals. Can belong to/inhabit inanimate objects
• A certain level of precognition (I myself have had dreams that later came true beyond normal coincidence)
• Having the ability to feel or sense a person's energy

Things that I DO NOT believe in:

• Telekinesis
• The ability to read minds or directly influence the thoughts of others (basically the Jedi Mind Trick)
• Purposeful remote viewing

Now, if people wish to actually discuss specific beliefs we can PM each other or create new threads. Here, simply list and play nice.

Weird stuff i believe in

* Angels
* Demons
* Telepathy
* NLP
* G'd
* that dogs dream :lol:

The only one I can think of is the Greek Gods and Goddesses. Other people might find that weird. I believe in Zeus, Hera, Apollo, Artemis, etc etc etc. I also believe in various spirits such as nymphs.

Ghosts I'm skeptical about...I think it's possible that ghosts exist but I find them hard to believe in because I've never seen evidence that they do.

I believe that weird stuff happens... but I'm afraid I won't commit to anything further than that!

Thanks Goken this is fun!

Things I believe in:

• gods (all of them.)
• spirits (individual spirits, collective spirits, human and animal, and ones that have never walked the earth in a physical form.)
• Power Animals (When a person is born, at least one animal spirit (collective) dedicates themselves to be their guide/guardian)
• Shamanic journeys
• Ghosts (I consider these echoes. The intelligent/interactive ones are spirits)
• Empaths (and the ability all have to absorb or inflict energy/emotions between person to person)
• Magick/prayer/intent/focus (same force, different names)
• The use of herbs and crystals as focuses for the above (more as an aid. I'm not so sold on specific ones having specific powers but I'm comfortable stating that they help on an individual basis. Example: White Sage reminds me of time spent with my dad, it has power because of the value I put into it. Although I'm not sure why I react the way I do to Dragons' Blood and Frankincense and Myrrh. They're the perfect comfort for me. Safety, security, warmth, and connection. There's possibly something more to them than my own value. Perhaps the value that peoples of the past have given it empower it?)
• Energy healing (NOT to be the replacement of modern medicine)
• Tarot cards

I believe in common sense.

I believe in the possibility of a lot of crazy things. I just haven't crossed the line on anything big, I will say I believe everyone should taste pizza and pho before they die.

I'm not sure I “believe” in anything. I make a preconception that reality exists and that I can learn something from it. From there I accept conditions of reality based on fact and evidence.

Hmm I guess I “believe” anything is possible but nothing is probable until evidence is presented!

I use belief in regards to wishful thinking as a tool when it is needed. I tend to only really relate importance enough to things to assert belief in this way if I've experienced it first hand.... mostly because I want to know why and how I experienced it!!!

Because it is something to work from, otherwise efforts are just without enough structure to justify my time.

But to play along with the thread topic, and to steal a two of Goken's... I currently believe;

- A certain level of precognition (I myself have had dreams that later came true beyond normal coincidence)
- Having the ability to feel or sense a person's energy

As mediated by mind, and by extension a capacity for that 'energy' to store information at such a level of complexity that it can retain what we'd call 'function'. So the brain then can receive and interpret information from that energy - when it is familiar enough, either partially or fully formed (maybe pareidolia).

Without playing too much into confirmation bias, this then enables a lot of the supernatural concepts to be incorporated.... within mind, but I've no belief currently in its manifestation outside of mind. Not to say different minds cannot have the same experience at the same time though.... to me that does not make it real, at least not in objective reality - but then what are the limits of that beyond those which it itself defines!

I believe in meaningful coincidences, and that the more you notice them, the more of them the universe will create for your entertainment.
