The Force was with me this weekend.


While getting ready for the festivities this weekend, I had to run to the store.
I stopped at one I usually don't goto (kind of a dive as far as grocery stores/minimarts go)
I picked up a bag of ice....passed on my usual lottery scratch offs, took a detour to avoid a train and came back home, my (thankfully) lazy butt cut thru the garage instead of going around.
I seen smoke...A towel had fallen onto a lightbulb and was smoldering. when i removed it to the patio, the air hit it and it burst into flames.

I wonder what would have happened if: I went to the usual store? Waited for the train? Got my lottery tickets?

I also had an odd experience.

I "met" a guy on a Social Network in the internet, who neither provided his real name, nor did he show a real picture of him. As I read his profile, I realized that he was in big trouble and rather suicidal. Maybe I have to mention that I live in a city with a million of people and that coincidences are very unlikely there...

Well. Some days after that I realized a guy in the subway. Something in my mind hammered the words "This is him!"
So I took my smartphone and looked for his page in the social network. In that second he asked me if that was an I Phone 4. I answered yes and then asked him if that profile I just loaded was him. He looked at me with big eyes and said "Yes".

So we had a little chat and I asked him for his cellphone number. His friend was so confused, he always asked if we really just met.

The guy I am talking about is on drugs and all my attempts to message him or call him failed so far... but maybe our encouter changed something. At least I hope so.

I am quite flabergasted yet and I hope, he will get better...

I am sure the Force told me that it was him.

All the best,
Qui-Ran

A fairly enjoyable conversation, It reminds me of all the crazy stuff I have done over the years. Such as jumping up a pretty tall wall, think it was about 15-18 foot tall wall so pretty decent jump,or when I ripped a half dead tree from the ground and threw it about 20ft, or from a time when I was younger very similar to what the op discribed I just sent this kid flying no idea how I didn't physically push him or anything like that he just went sailing about 10 ft across the playground, these are all things I didn't mean to do on purposed and if I learned to control it I wouldn't want to use it to harm people at the very least not without good reason to protect someone would be a reason to use such abilities.

I once saw a documentary talking about Shaolin monks.
There was a pile of 10 bricks. The monk gathers the qi aroud him and you think : wow this guy is gonna break the whole pile !
slow motion, the monk hits the pile with his hand (at this point you think : ouch !) and ... nothing happens for a short while, and suddenly, only the lower brick literally explodes !
the most amazing demonstration i ever seen.

[quote="Mark Anjuu" post=39107 A Jedi is not concerned with the acquisition of power but with the effect that their actions and thoughts have on everyone and eveything around him/her. OK, so a Master of Qigong (for example) can use what we call the Force to hurl someone across a room but to what end? If you're looking to achieve such things, then spent decades of your life in constant study and practice as everyone else has to. But along the way you may well find that your motivations change and that you no longer seek the ego-driven nonsense that you thought was important when you were younger.[/quote]

I like to think if a person has taken the time to "use" the force that they by then have enough wisdom to use it sparingly, with discretion and not for their own good or recognition. That would be a unique person.

Yes...

Apparently there is a way of using "Physical Force" in real life. There are certain types of practices where one can build certain types of energy using kinesis. There are many types of "Kinesis".

A few examples include:
  • Aero Kinesis(Ability to litterally, "Grab" the air around you and release it in a violent blast)
  • Pyro Kinesis(Ability to control fire)
  • Tele Kinesis(Many of the most known ones, the ability to control/move thing using the mind)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YaOA5wmgGY <- Aerokinesis, I don't know the legitimacy of this fella' but it's pretty cool anyways...

Although, a more scientifically oriented answer/point towards this is that there are ways people can literally, "Build Pressure" during motion of the body, it's a theory but it's the closest scientifically theory out there. Although a rare occurrence apparently it can happen.

Still though, pretty cool...

Even if one were to believe this, what is the point of cultivating the ability to blow leaves around on an obviously windy day?

Nah! It's fantastic. :) I'd love to be a fire bender.

"Children's Show". C'mon now. It's for teens, most definitely. The topics are very heavy.

A few weeks ago while driving I reduced my speed just before driving through a well hidden speed trap......

They pulled the guy over who passed me when I slowed down. :laugh:

I've come into contact with what I believe to be real force users, but not in the way most of you are probably thinking. I have several friends who study the healing art Reiki. From my understanding of it they can manipulate the energy inside and outside of a person to aid in healing. I thought it sounded hoaky when I was young but then my dad hurt his shoulder really bad. We were hanging out with a group that included his Reiki therapist and she noticed that he was rolling his shoulder around like it hurt. She spread her arms and turned her hands towards him and he immediately relaxed his shoulder and gave a huge sigh of relief. Also, the bruise on his shoulder spread down his arm and started to fade within the next ten minutes.

When I asked if it could really work from across a room like that our friend said "There is no distance in Reiki."

Now, given what I'm learning, I understand that to be an extension of using the Force in a very real and cool way.

I can tell you that the Force is real 100%, I feel it, use it and still living aware of it everyday.
Geroge Lucas created jedi based on Warrior monks, samurai, medieval knight principles.
All things Jedi can do are actually powers that can be trained today.

You can equal Force with Qi, Chi, prana, mana, holy spirit, orgon or any other different name used today to describe practical manifestation of energy.

By any other name the living force is all the same to all of us. Nothing mysterious, just us in touch with us and everything else.. The key to me is to tune into yourself and discover the natural energies that reside and flow inside you. I believe once in touch with our source connecting to everything else is a seamless connection.

Goken brother, glad you asked lol what we have learned while studying the Force some times bridge together with things in books. Fiction comes from us by what we can imagine and see and then add our own view. It may come from something truthful. Not all the time but for this one yes. Witches soothsayers medicine men, we all used to rely on them until we got smart and removed heart. Reiki is a real force. Pun intended. Take time to study things and your world will continue to blossom and grow stronger every day brother

Belief has more power than people realize. Most people have no idea what reality really is. Quantum physicists are barely scratching the surface, although making relatively huge strides in terms of proving that awareness affects the results. I'm lucky enough to have experienced the truth for myself. Given this truth, our thoughts are the single most powerful force in the universe, which is why miraculous things can happen when people believe they're possible. You, for example, have had this incredible experience, and wish to expand upon it. Unfortunately, your limit is set by a lifetime of reinforced certainties. Things like, gravity is real and unavoidable, physical objects are physical, we are all separate, you are born and you die, laws govern existence, etc etc... You can try overcoming them, but without the certainty that a direct experience provides, you will always have doubt. That being said, you did experience this one thing, which may just be enough to facilitate your belief and progress in all the rest. Who knows. People with a leg up in this sort of thing are ones who've had near death experiences, or have taken either 4_AcO_DMT or 5_MeO_DMT. I'm sure there are others, but if you're looking to start somewhere, start by challenging the beliefs you take for granted. Literally every part of this reality can be affected by you. If you find that difficult to buy into 100%, then like I said, you have options.

Is that so? And here I was thinking that at least the fundamental level of the physics that governs our daily experience is understood pretty much completely, while the idea that any vaguely defined mind forces have any impact on results continues to fail in experiment and to contradict theory.


I'm lucky enough to have experienced the truth for myself. Given this truth, our thoughts are the single most powerful force in the universe, which is why miraculous things can happen when people believe they're possible.

Like what? People confirmed to live for centuries? People flying without technological aid? Why is it that the best confirmed "miracles" are entirely mundane things perfectly consistent with the oh-so-illusory laws of physics, while anything that'd even remotely contradict them somehow can never be confirmed to even happen? And let's not even talk of physically possible things everybody would love to see that just somehow still don't happen no matter how much people pray for them. Where is the cure to cancer? Why has there always been hunger but never world peace? Nothing about having those things is even miraculous, yet somehow "the single most powerful force in the universe" that seems to almost universally be directed towards those ends is barely even getting close?


Unfortunately, your limit is set by a lifetime of reinforced certainties... You can try overcoming them, but without the certainty that a direct experience provides, you will always have doubt.

So which is it? Do we want to not have doubt or do we want to overcome certainties? Why does a direct experience provide you with certainty? Is it not a bit arrogant to assume that one is without flaws or biases, that what ever one happens to experience oneself is beyond doubt? It seems to me that what you are suggesting is going even further than that, and trading the "certainties" suggested by collective experiences of generations upon generations of ordinary people facing the same struggles as yourself, and remarkable people who brought full or partial solutions to them, for certainties granted by direct experience by one person? Colour me old-fashioned, but if I happened to directly experience something that appears to fly in the face of everything everybody else knows about how the world works, especially people who have demonstrated their understanding by providing us with reliable technology based on it, my first instinct would be to doubt my own perception, before I doubt everybody else's. Maybe my spiritual awakening is yet to commence, and maybe on that day an idea like "I'm right, everyone else is wrong" will be more welcome in my mind. For now, it seldom occurs to me.

Better to leave questions unanswered than answers unquestioned

I 100% believe you and have had many experiences myself this week I made a few videos if you have a chance looked them up the 1st one was just your basic on psychic abilities
