About Me

My name is Sean Connelly, and I've gone by the pseudo-name Peebrain while on PsiPog.net. This blog was a running stream of my thoughts, beliefs, and experiences about PsiPog and psychic abilities in general.

So I was thinking today...

Do I really believe in the atom? My first reaction was, "Of course I do, it's proven science". But then I thought about it a little longer. Intellectually, I understand the atom, and I know the scientific labels behind it - but do I honestly believe it? Do I believe it in my heart?

And I think the truth is that I don't. In fact, I don't think there are many people that do truly believe in the atom. We know we're "supposed" to, sort of like we know we're "supposed" to eat healthy. But when we go to the store, what do we grab? Whatever we feel like. In the same sense, I think we know we're "supposed" to believe in the atom, but when it comes down to it - what model do we adopt in our minds? The one that feels right.

So instead of looking for an intellectual understanding of psionics, I think we should start with an emotional understanding. As much as we don't want to admit it, the truth is that the decisions in our lives are dictated by our emotions - NOT our intellect. After we get the emotional part down pretty good, then we can start to work on an intellectual understanding.

Just some random thoughts.

You know, I like things that deal with understanding. Especially when it comes to Psi. How do you propose we come to an understanding of it, through the way you decided it should be done?

Good question.

The ideas I had over the past day in response to this question are:

I was thinking meditation helps a lot here. Also, I was thinking of ways that I feel things, and things like movies get my emotions going. Inspirational music. I don't know heh :-). I'll keep thinking.
