Yet that is the claim, the Menninger Institute?!?! That is certainly "demonstrated on demand under controlled scientific conditions" if anything is! He can certainly do it again.Felix wrote:I don't think it's reasonable to expect extraordinary human abilities like this to be demonstrated on demand under controlled scientific conditions.
And he aught to be able to repeat the demonstration, again and again, under scientific conditions.As I recall, the swami prepared for days for the telekinesis demonstration I mentioned, and he did perform it more than once. If he accomplished what was claimed and it required many years of intense yogic training to develop such abilities, it is unlikely that another subject could be found who could do, or even want to do, what he did.
Neither do i, but I didn't know that is what we were talking about.And maybe I don't need objective confirmation of my subjective experiences. If I have a precognitive vision, I don't feel compelled to rush out and find a team of scientists to verify that it actually happened.
