OMJ, you are such a devil's advocate!



The truth...what is the truth? Popular consensus? We know that just because a majority believe something is true doesn't necessarily make it so. I don't know how to define truth, but what I do know is...that which I choose to believe is that which I begin to perceive and what in the end I will receive (a little poem I conceived ). And I think that is the point that is being made. But I get your point as well...that you can't just wish something instantly into truth and manifestation. However, maybe with practice? Or maybe it's just a good place to start in building up our mental muscles for realms in which we will experience instantaneous results from beliefs.

And maybe true, PURE belief is something we are confounding with wishful-thinking-belief. Maybe PURE belief would move mountains instantly.



Even if this were a case of pure belief, I would divert back to the rule of compassion, get what you want and need but don't hurt or take from others in the process.



I defer to the film Shallow Hal. I love that film. How you see it is how it IS for you. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, One man's meat is another man's poison, and all that stuff.

Some people wake up happy and feeling life is the most amazing gift, while others wake to feeling imprisoned and tortured. Both wake in the same world, but with their own view of it. Both worlds are true worlds. But there is a choice involved in which type you experience through the way you choose believe. Over time, conditions that seem horrible can seem glorious and visa-versa through the power of belief (probably even the wishful-thinking-type of belief).

No, I don't think so!


You make a good point! And maybe there are certain given limitations that cannot be altered in the physical realm, and maybe not. Maybe a person who truly, PURELY believes that they defy gravity... does so.

Actually I have read many amazing experiences by others like this. In one instance when a boy was young he so focused on being weightless and flying as he walked to school each day that one day he experienced himself able to bounce with levitation. Did he slip over into another realm that aligned with his strong desire, or did he defy gravity. I don't know for sure how it works, but I believe all things are possible.

I also am thinking about the example from Tanis Halliwell's book "Summer with the Leprechaun" where the underground being was trying to teach her to walk through something solid and how with each subsequent try as she strengthened her belief, the being told her that on other planes of existence she was making achievements that add up. In essence, the more effort put into a belief the closer it comes to this reality as the "you's" in other realities are able to experience the truth of your belief. Maybe when a number of the many "you's" reach a critical mass, the belief becomes a reality. And maybe then "you" shift into another dimension that accommodates your belief. If that was no gravity, then you shift into a world with no gravity.

Then there are the fascinating stories of alien abductees that experience themselves moving through walls and defying gravity. I whole-heartedly believe in aliens (or interdimensional beings) and have my own personal experiences that shore this up, but however it is done, gravity is defied as is solidity. But even this example requires belief in these other people's experiences first before you can even tackle belief in the levitation, etc.

Though there are lots of non-alien-related stories of human levitation (even at girl's slumber parties ) with lots of witnesses.

I'm not ascared a no death and believe all is eternal, nevertheless, no thanks.

Love ya, OMJ. You feed my brain good.
