I don't believe in magic (even though I wish it existed). I don't believe in anything paranormal really. Never witnessed anything in particular nor did I catch anything special from the multiple discussions I had with my family and friends. However, if there's anything I think is "magic" it would be self-control. Mastering your emotions, your thoughts, your desires and being disciplined.. Now that's something quite impressive in my opinion. I come to /x/ mainly because I browse threads that talk about these things. I'm sure it has been discussed multiple times here but I wanted to know what your thoughts about the things that we can't see (yet). Do you actually think there's some kind of ether, mana, od, something "magical" that we can't see but that we can actually control with enough practice? Do you think that mastering yourself could be part of that?
>>43148269More or less. Magic imo works kinda like this
>>43148269signal and the signals telling you to ignore that are paranormal
>>43148645So magic is about deception?>>43148656I don't understand
>>43149423Yeah when you know how it works, its called, science or trick or method and so on. same stuff your perception about it has changed tho. Thats kinda the thing always, people see what they belive they are seeing so manage someones belives manage their perception manage their perception manage their behaviour.
>>43148269Magic IS about self-control. Magic is done through WILL, which requires an alignment between Soul, Mind and Body. You can read more here >>43128127
No less than 4 times in my life have I dreamt something that happened later in the future. Not vague shit either. I dreamt someone was breaking into my gf’s car, woke up a couple hours later look out the window and there’s a black guy rummaging through her vehicle.
