Mind power - for real

2 replies
We already have existing technology that allows us to get data from the brain. There are a number of experiments and applications in fields such as entertainment (games), medical (EEG, MRI) and so on.

The international community of researchers are also making rapid progress when it comes to send data to the brain. This can be done indirectly with focused electromagnetic pulses, directly with electrodes placed at certain locations inside the brain or by manipulating our normal senses, such as having special glasses which show an infrared view to one eye and the "normal" view to the other creating a "supersense".

And we also have, since many years, the technology to transfer huge amounts of data by wire or wireless within a network... Internet!

What do you think about the future? Will our brains be connected to each other? Will we live in the Matrix? Why, why not?

Whether your belief system is favoring traditional science or more holistic thinking such as "the Secret", what can we say about the future of mind power?

    Personally I believe we are all already connected to each other in ways we don't understand.

    I would be against hooking my brain into a "network" or other brains directly. I like my freedoms and my own thoughts too much

    Great post!

    I agree with Scort. We're totally all connected.

    You're reading a reply that I'm sitting in my living room typing.

    The secret? I think the philosophy behind it is sound.

    Do I think people took it the wrong way?
    Yep. Hope and no action = pain

    What is the purpose?

    If you visualize for long enough, you'll start to train your brain to believe that whatever you're focusing on is going to happen. Then it's like "man, I gotta make this happen, it's a part of me now!"

    In addition, meditative visualization actually changes the brain (read up on neuroplasticity) in a very "achieve goals" kind of way.

    The future of mind power

    Since this is my main area of study (neuroscience), I can tell that this is just the beginning. We're starting (JUST STARTING) to become conscious of this thing called BRAIN we've ignored for years because we didn't know how to use it and lived by false assumptions.

    I think that in 20 years, the world will be entirely different, mainly because people are going to awaken to the true power of their minds.

    Bottom line?

    Reality is Negotiable.

    Great thread man!
