## Questions

SpinoC66 asks on November 11, 2003, 6:44pm:

How did you know you had the power of telekinesis

Rainsong replies on November 12, 2003, 7:36pm:

If you are asking how we, the mods, personally knew....well, in my case, it was a bit hard to miss. In Peebrain's case, I think he decided to try it out; no doubt he can correct me if I'm wrong.

If you are asking how you can find out whether you can do telekinesis, the obvious answer would be: try it. Give it some serious practice for a few months and see what happens, or doesn't.

The_Seven_Mystics asks on November 10, 2003, 6:09pm:

Can one develop other skills one hasn't practiced before, from practicing a different aspect of psionics(e.g. practice psi manipulation, and gain skills in telepathy)? If so, why?
Thanks,
The_Seven_Mystics

Rainsong replies on November 12, 2003, 7:28pm:

Practicing one of the perceptive skills consistently tends to increase skill in other perceptive skills. The same trend is _not_ apparent in affective skills. I don't know why. My _guess_, and it is only a guess, is that the perceptive skills overlap in the actual nature of the abilities.

perceptive -> clairvoyance, precog, receptive telepathy...
affective -> PK, telepathic projection...

I've been working on a new theory and i was wondering if anybody else has heard of it.
When i practice psi, ive always felt pressure building in the general "third eye" area, and i recently made an exercise to "open" when I was done i noticed psi was much easier to munipulate. Has anybody heard of this before?
Thank you for your time. oh and if it sounds like a good idea, should i post an article on it?

Rainsong replies on November 12, 2003, 7:24pm:

The use of the Chakra paradigm is relatively common in energy work of many kinds, and it has been known to show up in some psionic methods. Generally, the Chakra methods in question are based loosely on Theosophical teachings. I personally do not believe in Chakras, but if that method works for you, run with it.

For those of you wondering about Chakras and Theosophical teachings, try theosophy.org

self_titled asks on November 11, 2003, 11:23am:

Hey there. I guess it's an individual thing, but I am curious as to how much your morals are involved when using psionic skills. For example, cheating in exams, winning money in bets etc. Me? I guess if I had it I'd use it, however another person's judgement could say that I'd be unfairly taking advantage. At what point do you say "no"? Are there people that don't say "no", like those mentioned by Peebrain in reply to flip's question? Thanks!

Rainsong replies on November 12, 2003, 7:21pm:

"Psionics" is a set of skills. How you use your skills is a matter of personal ethics. If you would cheat in exams by other means, there is not much stopping you from cheating psionically. If you like to use your other abilities, to help others, then you can use psionic abilities to do so, as well. Morality and ethics are no more and no less connected to psionics than to any other set of skills.

SKainuiG asks on November 9, 2003, 11:58pm:

Do you think it is possible for there to be psi activated things that can only be used by psions? Like walk through mazes that need special skills to get through obsticals, or even boats, planes, or vehicles that use psi to be controlled or turned on, maybe security systems that can only be turned off by psions, or maybe even using psi to compact light into a solid beam like a light saber? What are your views on this? (okay that last part about the light saber was a bit fluffy, I admit. :p)

Rainsong replies on November 12, 2003, 7:17pm:

Yes.

abnormal989 asks on November 7, 2003, 3:45pm:

Peebrain, I saw the question you answered about hypnosis, and im wondering if you purchased a book, or found a free website...If you did use a website, what was it?

Peebrain replies on November 10, 2003, 12:36am:

Library .

flip357 asks on November 6, 2003, 11:34pm:

i have read some books and articles that say your psychic gifts are not realy "yours." they say that if you use them for something bad or for personal gain they will go away. has anyone found any truth to this? is it wrong to use psychokenises to efect slot machines, dice, card shufles, ect? if i think my ability will leave me if im greedy, will it leave me just because i think it will?

Peebrain replies on November 7, 2003, 12:29pm:

I have found that to be proven false, actually. I know people who use psi in a VERY malicious manor, and they've been doing it for quite a while now. As for ethics of a certain action, that is up to you to decide. We all have our own moral beliefs and such... One concept that I use is: if I couldn't use psionics, would I still find a way to accomplish the goal? For example, is it right to use TK to trip an old lady? Well, for me, no, because I wouldn't do that normally if I didn't have TK.

Rainsong replies on November 8, 2003, 8:54pm:

Flip, you ask a very good question. Somehow the White-lights-and-fluffy-bunnies brigade have managed to establish a myth that "psi can only be used for good and selfless purposes". The myth in question is totally bogus. Some of its _possible_ origins are:
a) excuses for why a working did not work,
b) excuses why a certain person's methods don't work for anybody other than (allegedly) the (guru-wannabee) writer
c) a method of scaring newbies into not trying to use their skills for unpleasant purposes
d) transferring beliefs from some "magickal" traditions.

If using one's abilities for malicious purposes immediately stripped one's "powers", I would not --repeat _not_ have any psionic ability any more. Unfortunately, pk and telepathy are not that easy to get rid of.

palecricket1 asks on November 4, 2003, 1:12pm:

Even though those "psychics" who own shops and make you pay to give you fake future predictions have been disproved, is seeing the future possible in your opinion?

Peebrain replies on November 5, 2003, 2:09pm:

Yes, it is possible in my opinion. Though I would suspect that the majority of those "psychic" people you meet on the street or on TV are fake. If they ask for your credit card before providing proof of their ability, then I suggest not trusting them. If they provide some proof, then base your opinion off of that.

The_Seven_Mystics asks on November 3, 2003, 10:05pm:

What do you(the psipog staff) consider as the normal progression rate in:
1)manipulation
2)Kinesis
3)Phasing/OBE's/AP/RV
4)TP

Peebrain replies on November 4, 2003, 12:39pm:

I personally did (am doing...):
1. Manipulation
2. OBE's
3. Telekinesis
4. Perception (TP, RV, etc)
5. Back to TK <- I am here

Keep in mind that during most of my training, I was working on advancing my skill in energy manipulation as well. I.e., during TK, I was still working on shields, constructs, etc...

AQUATEAM asks on November 3, 2003, 2:24pm:

Can anyone learn to use psi or only the gifted ones. I didn't see that in the articals.

Peebrain replies on November 3, 2003, 4:23pm:

Anyone can learn . I started from scratch a few years back.
