The Super-Natural: My Hypothesis
16 years ago
General
I've been meaning to write a journal about this for a while, and I'm bored so I figured I'd do it now.
I have a theory about how all supernatural phenomena occurs. This only deals with phenomena that cannot be discounted by known natural occurrences.
The foundation is that everything is ultimately a series of waves. All matter when broken down to its most basic quanta is simply a wave. Supernatural events are caused by these waves interfering. These waves of course do not operate on the electromagnetic spectrum as we know it but are more basic and are in the same spectra as gravity and nuclear forces.
When I say everything I also include our own mental functions and emotions. So now that I've presented the foundation idea here's the specifics for several phenomena.
Hauntings: These are caused by strong emotions affecting the frequencies of an environment or object. You'll note that there are no hauntings associated with boring places or happy places but instead those with strong emotional tragedies such as murders. This process of haunting can also be done while a person is still alive, a process these days that is seen as blessing. Essentially a person imposes their emotions on an object until it resonates in a manner similar to the emotion presented. You can haunt something by simply associating it with a desired emotion and keeping it around a lot. This is also why exorcism can remove a haunting. A strong conviction is required to exorcise a haunting because it allows the person to impose an extremely strong emotion with confidence. This essentially overwrites the ghost with a new frequency or scrambles it enough to break down any manifestations. Theoretically this could be done artificially once we manage to detect and produce these energy fields.
Poltergeists: A haunting being a certain frequency or frequencies in an environment or object can thus radiate these waves on other things. In the case of poltergeists it starts to affect a human being. Children are the most common target of poltergeists and I believe this is because their mental frequency has not solidified as it has with more mature brains. A poltergeist can do quite a bit to a person as a result. Note that in either case it implies that you cannot talk to the dead as they are simply emotional recordings though a fraction of their memories may also have been recorded.
Telekinesis: This is a tough one since I've never seen it done. In theory however it would be through the use of ones own field to influence the gravitational field of an object. It would thus be very hard to move something large/dense as it would have a stronger gravitational field to influence.
Psychic ability: We all share our thoughts through our radiated neurological field. I posted about that in one of my earlier journals and provided a video of research done on the subject.
I guess those are the big 4.

FA+

but the rest sound right to me
but is this
super-natural (beyond the natural, not natural)
or extra-natural ( and extent of the natural world that we may just not understand
my mom actually had an experiance at an apartment where no extreme emotions were really imprinted.
the experiance was that something started to pull off the covers of her bed and therre wasnt anyone there. i was at school, her boyfriend was at work and there weren't any animals in the apartment at the time.
she felt this happening and when she told it to stop it did so.
she also felt a hand on her shoulder at the same apartment under the same circumstances. and during that occurence all she said was no and again it stopped. my mom has no telekinetic ability once so ever.
but the both of us have a slight ability to sense emotions.
Without being outright, I think it's pretty obvious the point I'm making.
By the way; there is something that can be said about people who can't grasp "simple" situations. I'll leave the analysis of that statement to you...
This is one of the main reasons that anecdotes are near worthless as evidence.
I've always believed that everything comes down to one essential thing - waves.
Think about it, sound is a wave in a given frequency, but radio waves are just a higher frequency but have quite a different nature. Light, waves again but at a greatly increased frequency...
Different ranges, different effects, and different ways to detect and interpret them.
You cant hear colors... or see sounds [well most folks cant] but, if your ears were sensative to ultra high frequency, or your eyes to lower frequencies, perhaps you could?
You cant see or hear microwaves, but again, its just a frequency of waves.
Everything will break down to waves of force in some form or another, its just a matter of finding the range of a specific effect.
And to the supernatural, well, who knows what might be happening in this weird old universe. You can get standing frequencies in a room where sounds echo ontop of eachother exactly, these have been proven to interfere with the human brain and cause visual and audatory halucinations, and even to set up resonance in objects, making them move seemingly of their own accord.
Your ideas on haunting could be seen as sub-atomic standing frequencies, capturing a snapshot if you will, of the state of mind of whoever is nearby.
Telekenesis, this one just might be possible... A matter of finding a controllable frequency in the human mind and somehow amplifying it into a tangable force. Its been proven time and time again that humans can produce readable and controlable mental frequencies, they've even started making games controlled by the mind in research centers.
Psychic ability, this one I believe in. Because I've seen it first hand - I do it. A lot.
Have you ever been thinking about something totaly unrelated to the situation, then someone else in the room will say something about it? I get that a lot. I don't pick up on others thoughts, I sort of project ideas, or thats how it often seems. Now if I could just control that.... Eat your midichloreans out Jedi ;)
Thats my thought on it anyways ^_^'
(Science) Thoughts and emotions are chemical reactions in the brain. the chemicals are composed of different atoms, like neutrons, positrons ect. put together is very spesific manners. Birds navigate through an ion-radar in their brain, and other animals are able to sense bad/good weather and phemomens like hurricanes/tsunamies/earthquaces long before they occur, probably because they have a simmilar "radar". The reason why we can't sense these things are because evolution took away much of our feral abilities, such as the radar, and granted us inteligence instead. (My theory) What if psycics are like that, that they still posesses that "radar", one that is much stronger than any other, and can therefore recieve signals from other people, such as fluctuations (however it's spelled) in their neurological field and brain, and interpret them.
Humans only use about 20% of our maximum brain capasity, so achieving a greater level of brain activity should grant us a great deal more abilities. It's like having the best computer on the market, but only use it to write in word.
Also, psycics who claim to see the future might have the ability to predict, or guess where any particle can at a different time. Quantom physics (can't spell that word) forbids us to accurate predict where a particle will be forward in time, but it allows us to guess where it will be, so psycics must be seeing probable futures.
god, I love subjects like this! :3
Thats another thing that kinda bugs me. Have you ever been doing something, and someone sneaks up on you but you KNOW they're there from like, ten feet away, even though you've not heard them. Just felt it?
I get that a lot as well.
Anyone else sense electrical equipment?
My father likes to work out in one of the downstairs rooms, and he watches the TV with headphones on so you cant hear the set. Yet as soon as I leave my room upstairs, I just know when that TV is on. Same with PCs and various other pieces of electronic gear, but it has to be fairly high power stuff. If I left my DS or PSP on I sure couldnt feel those, but TVs are easy.
High power gear puts out sizable electromagnetic fields, maybe I can pick up on those?
Really is a fascinating subject :)
I've thought of similar theories many times
This old lady lived the last years of her life sitting on a rocking chair on the corner of a room. She spent more hours a day in that chair than doing anything else; old age has just turned her into a semi-vegetable who sat there doing nothing other than slowly moving back and forth.
So she died aged almost a hundred, years pass and I’m in that room with some relatives. One of them is four year old boy who was born weeks after her death, so he couldn’t possibly have any memories of her.
The other kids are running around and someone bumps the empty rocking chair, which starts moving. And the kid tells me “Look, an old lady!”
I didn’t see anything at all, but the kid described me the lady he saw on the chair down to the smallest details, including the color and print of the dress she usually wore. This was long time ago and my hair still rises as I type this.
Was that boy somehow seeing an image from four years ago? Or some kind of latent image of the old lady persisted in the room, invisible to my eyes but not for the boy’s… to this day I have no explanation.
Personally I don't believe in anything "supernatural" for the simple reason I consider "natural" to describe the entire Universe, therefore there is nothing outside the natural realm. the kind of things people usually like to describe as "supernatural" I put under the category of "natural phenomena whose rules we don't understand yet".
It may sound like splitting hairs, but the difference is important to me. To call something "supernatural" is to put it in a category where the rules of the physical world don't apply, which mean we will never able to understand it or comprehend it.
I rather see paranormal phenomena as perfectly natural, just too subtle to be detected and studied by our present level of technology. The Ancient Greek somehow knew matter was made of atoms, but they didn't have any physical means of detecting them or prove their existence. We are on the same level when it comes to the so called "unexplained", we can only make guesses about the nature of those things, but there is no much we can do to study them.
=3
it reminds me of the MTV Show FEAR Where people had to go do things in HAUNTED PLACES...
it was really scary because SOMETHING Might happen..
as per Telekinesis.. I remember reading somewhere that PETS are more psychic than we are (Because no one told them NOT TO BE Psychic.. ) it seems they have more DEVELOPED psychic skills
