I have also heard that we think of one thing at a time. I heard that we switch in and out of consciousness a bunch of a times per second. Just stuff I heard... not exactly how you could prove that you only think of one thing... you'd have to define what "thinking" is, and that's not exactly easy .

When I say that we are thinking of a billion things a second, I mean that there are a lot of things going on through your head that you aren't completely aware of. You are moving your hands, you are shifting your weight, you are turning your head to hear something in the other room, you are darting your eyes over a monitor, translating shapes into letters, into words, into sentences, into something that you comprehend inside of your brain. You are listening to music, perhaps tapping along. You have one hand on your mouse, moving the pointer around by moving your arm muscles. See? A billion things .

Rather a broad question you have there. Some drugs do dampen psionic ability. Some don't. You would probably be surprised at how many have been tested.

In some cases, drugs prescribed for the treatment of certain neurological disorders appear to improve the psi abilities, as they stabilize brain chemistry or bring seizures under control and so on, making mental activity a little easier. Of course, some conditions which require medical attention would make psionic activity unwise. An obvious example would be hypokalemia, because psionic activity will make it worse.

I suspect that the "drugs" to which your question really refers are the "recreational" sort. There have been studies of the effects of a wide variety of drugs --legal and otherwise-- on psionic abilities. With the exception of caffeine, the effects common drugs were consistently negative. That is to say, when studied objectively by people who were looking for something to make people's psionics work better, the drugs in question were found to be unhelpful...in some cases, _very_ unhelpful. Caffeine's effects were variable, and appear to make some people more vulnerable to telepathic reception.

Think about it, though. "Recreational" drugs affect the nervous system. If you are trying to learn psionics, you need your nervous system to function correctly. Mucking it up is stupid. Long-term effects of some popular "street drugs" are still unknown. Long-term effects of drugs that have been around for a while are being discovered now. In many cases, the long-term effects have been different from what was expected.

Anyone who says they get better perception while "high" is to be regarded with suspicion unless or until the alleged improvement in the perceptions is demonstrated by comparing records of the accuracy of perception when "high" as compared to when the person is not drugged. When a person's judgement is impaired, that person cannot judge the situation clearly....That's what "judgement is impaired" means, after all.

Whoohoo! :D Well said.

The problem with hearing:
You are thinking a billion things a second, and ignore most things that come from the subconscious. So the hard part in receiving something is to shut up.

The problem with telling/asking:
You are asking for a billion things a second, and the subconscious can only put so much effort into one thing. So, quit asking for so much. I.e., focus.

They are both big deals. Usually if you are listening for something, you are focused, so asking is relatively simple at that point. You don't have to listen to ask for stuff though, so some of the beginner articles just get the audience to ask, and see what happens.

Hope that answered your question. Good question .

I personally wouldn't pay $15 for a year course.

Unintentional interference with electrical devices is a relatively common form of "poltergeist", in the "accidental pk" use of the word. If you want to learn to control that sort of thing, work on psychokinesis, shielding, and the rudiments such as grounding and centering. No one ever claimed it would be easy....

Nope. Using a construct to convey information is only one of many varieties of "telepathy". Constructs are not needed for telepathic communication.

Yes.

Are you sure that lowering your heartrate below your resting rate is a good idea? Would you not be, perhaps, better advised to get into better physical condition, thus lowering your resting rate, which is a reflection of the efficiency of your cardiovascular system? Slowing your heartrate below its capacity to sufficiently oxygenate your blood sounds counter-productive.

This is hardly an underground community, in spite of the whimsical introductory page. It is open to the public, rather than being hidden away behind passwords.

You say that it "seems" as though psions do not perform the sorts of services you mention. I applaud your careful phrasing. Things are not always as they seem.

That's a pretty common "dream"... there's one problem. The dream seems to go like this:

we are here->do something->everyone in the world loves psi and teaches and are rich and everything is great

It's that "do something" part that is unclear. What exactly do you want me to do? I figured this website is a pretty good first step in becoming less "underground".
