How has contact with the supernatural changed your life?

[MyDoorsAreOpen]

ive meet a few psych and many med-professionals who fully accept and are receptive of this para-norm, but they usually would never mention anything like this to a 'client'... and these theories and views are expressed to us subtly, and soon will be implemented into psychology/-chiatry or 'people-management' soon in a more neutral way; having a much greater positive effect - truly eventually, as the negative ones to become further disassembled from our society.

True. The psychiatrist I worked under on my psychiatry rotation is open to the paranormal. But he brought up the subject only when there were no patients around, and used very careful language to indicate that he hasn't drank the Kool-Aid, he's just open to the possibility of things beyond what science can detect. He also made it clear that this stance in no way influences the way he practices medicine.

Brugha Synergy is an implementation of "spirituality" into our unwitting-psychic culture.

but, these things would need a very long time to be more widely or globally accepted first it seems, or as the example above, leaked, and then found. thats the only way to honestly believe near anything as fact anyway, as noted...


i still keep wanting to jerk my knee and say never.

- where i live, people believe in spirits and everyone has seen or knows someone who claims to have seen a ghost

when they ask me why i'm not afraid of ghosts, i joke that they don't bother white people, only thais
because, "when all you have is a hammer, everything starts looking like a nail"

there is no doubt that most, if not all, such occurencies are only biased interpretations of something the viewer could not explain


- however. if such occurencies do happen, i don't see why we call them "supernatural"

"supernatural" doesn't exist
by definition, it would mean "something that doesn't happen in nature"

if it does happen, it's natural
only, not understood yet

if there are ghosts, they have nothing of supernatural
they are just unexplained yet

for someone living 3 centuries ago, a lit lightbulb, a telephone or pretty much anything we use today would have been labeled as supernatural

inuits (would) consider auroras borealis as the spirits of their ancestors... only because no one was there to explain the process behind them


there's a myriad of things in science that would be labeled "supernatural" if scientists were not wise enough to acknowledge that they just can't explain them yet

there's nothing we can explain about quantum mechanics. we can only describe them
but we don't call them supernatural

if ghosts/etc. were true, there would be no more reasons to call them supernatural


supernatural is a word with a nonsensical meaning

the most supernatural thing ive ever experienced is meeting beings and entities on DMT. mainly a female godess and a budda

Conversely, if you were ever to witness irrefutably a supernatural occurrence, how do you think it would change you life?

a lot

i can make a parallel with what i've experienced on psychedelics (ghosts wouldn't surprise me anymore)
i've told many people about it

i've felt that everyone had to know that these experiences existed and i don't understand how people who have had them and have the opportunity to share them with the public don't do it

they suppress the truth only to fit in and not have their mental health questioned by others

they choose the blue pill

I'd like to see a ghost but I'm not holding my breath.

Friends of mine apparently have seen them. In my one friend's old house he said how they had a ghost cat that was so realistic and looked and acted like an alive cat, that guests thought that they owned a cat but they didn't have any pets when my friend lived there.

Another friend of mine who has seen ghosts said how they can take on certain emotions or some will get annoyed or even angry that you're there, and how they feel sort of like a fog or mist, and that you have the feeling that you're being watched and then they appear.

I consistently see shadow people. means I run in the dark a lot.

Do you use meth? Or are they more like spirits or energy that you see?

Hahaha. the only chemical I put in my body is lsd. I wouldn't evne take IB-profin the last time I dislocated my ankle haha. they're a poorly documented paranormal phenomena and seem to be attracted to certain people.
there seem to be distinctly three types, the "real" shadow people, paranoid delusions from people who probably do take meth and dark spirits and there are very distinct differences between the three

Shadow people
they are kind of like ghosts but very different as well, they seem fascinated with humanity but if you look straight at one, they freeze for a moment and then will dart off. they have white eyes and are really harmless. I think they are just lost spirits so lost that they have forgotten what humanity is like and are trapped observing us. They are not foreboding or scary and just seem to have a child like fascination with certain people. they just freak me the shit out some times so I run to the nearest well lit area. (important to note that they do not appear as their name would suggest against objects but stand freely as a human would)
they are about as threatening as the ones in this video (note the one in the mask is not a shadow person)

Paranoid delusions,
People think they are being watched, they can feel it then they'll see a dark abortion in the side of their eye and freak out. and the thing dis appears. the difference being these people experience paranoia and usualy think that the specter is out to steal something from them, life, soul ect. **

and the third type of "shadow people" that share one trait with shadow people and that is the free standing shadow part, but they have brilliant or sharp red eyes, exhume a foreboding aura and will often directly confront people. They ARE "EVIL" often seen by people floating over others while they are sleeping. When found they do a variety of things but seem to lack the power to attack someone. Known to have a piercing vile scream.
it's the seeing one of these that scares the shit out of me.
