Psychics (experience, Articles, Zen, Greek, Roman)

Are there any true psychics or are they all fakes? Have you had any experiences with psychics?

[Green Gaia]

I've never had a personal experience with a psychic, but someone close to me has, and her reading was eeriely accurate. I don't think they're all fakes, but many are, so they give the rest a bad name.

It is true, there are many fakes out there. Because alot of psychics premonitions are very metaphorical and need defining. Which is hard to do over the phone, or on tv. (John Edwards sold out!). But yes, there are many people who have the ability. I've met tons of them.

I think that there are many people who are psychic and who have gone through great measures to develop their talent. The only problem with psychics is that no matter how accurate they are, the future is mutable and it is still up to the person who goes to a psychic, to decide whether they are going to follow a psychic's possibilities or not.

I have had a few. I enjoy tape recording the readings to see how their advice plays out. It helps me to decide how accurate the psychic is as well as my own intuition.

Most true "psychics" prefer to be known as Psions. Psi is the greek word for "Unknown".

I grant myself the title of Psion, but I cannot read the future, or even telepathize well (mainly limited to showing itself randomly throughout the day. In one day, I, on average, say the same thing as someone else around ten times.). My talent is larger in the area of psi manipulation, or psychokinesis. Empathy I can handle a bit. I use it for trees, and some animals, but mainly trees when I'm down south. Precognitive wannabes should check out the link section on www.psipog.com. Dozens of helpful articles on the beginner Psion's path.

I think it's all hooey. Show me some evidence!

I'm not in it to prove anything, but I'd be willing to try and upload a video somewhere, if you want. Really, even that won't prove it. The only way to prove it is to do it yourself. I had the same attitude as you, once.

There is $1,000,000.00 waiting for anyone willing to take Randi's Challenge. I have little doubt that the money will go unclaimed.

If you read the terms of the contract Deut, you will see that Randi decides when something is truly paranormal, no one else, and he doesn't have to show the video publicly. If he were serious about his offer, then why doesn't he let a panel of third party judges do the judging? I seriously doubt that the over two thousand Psions I have seen on http://ppsociety.com, or www.psipog.com are all in it for some ego-boosting kick. People have written dozens of articles there are forums. As I said, I am willing to try and post a video somewhere, of me doing PK.
