About healing

[R.]

Healing was mentioned in Wolf topic so it made me wonder, healing with psi is body manipulation, right? Then is it possible to alter/manipulate body in other ways with the same method?

I won't go into detail, but I tend to disagree with the fact that you can change your body. Some people call this "biokinesis" and I would just say that I firmly disagree. More on this later.

I've heard at least one pretty wild story about someone doing something like that, however its an advanced topic and from what I heard the effects weren't entirely stable/safe. The short answer: probably, but something like this requires an incredibly high skill level and as I said even then its probably not a good idea.

DMILS(Direct Mental Influence of the Living System). I don't know the extent, but it's used to heal wounds and change eye color and somtimes hair color for what I hear over the internet. But I have experience with the area, mainly in the immunity and numbing pain.(I don't know numbing pain is from DMILS or not, but it works)

1) Do not believe everything you read on the internet, especially regarding psionics. There are reliable sources out there, but this subject attracts kooks, crazies, starry eyed idiots, stage magicians, and frauds the way scandal and war attract reporters.

2) Working on some research on the topic among the more reputable sources (currently predominantly the Journal of Parapsychology, I'll see where that goes.) However, my own experiences with actual DMILS is more on the fraud side than the fact. I know that Psionics can heal; however, what I understand of DMILS makes me doubt that psionics does so through anything resembling their methodology.

My perceptions on point 2 may change after further research but I have something like 6 articles to read and follow up on before I can say more. PM for references if you would like. I'd rather not spam the forum unless there's a clamor for specifics.

Where I got it is more reliable then someone's randomy crazie, how much so would be debated differently by different individuals, I'll talk more on that privately if you wish since this is derailing the thread.

Then how about fusing construct with some part of body?

[innerfire]

To what benifit? I cannot think of anything that would require a permanent fusion, also it carries several risks, such as the need to maintain the construct as it would decay, a potentially heightened vunerability to attacks and viruses since the construct would be linked to you at a higher level, and probably some other consequences I can't think of :\

[R.]

Anyway, you mentioned various sources, can you give me a link to some?

Handling resources via PM unless there's more folk who want them? I don't want to derail this myself.

Wow, what a topic. Yes, healing is possible. Yes, there can be some influence on the physical. Is this real? In the physical realm by observation, I would say yes. What causes the healing /may/ be up for debate depending upon your perspective on the subject. This is a rather advanced topic in my opinion. I should probably read a few more articles on the subject myself (rather than relying on experience and past conversations) if this is going to be such a hot topic. It may take me a few days to find any time however.

I can say if anyone takes this up in debate, that outcome should be interesting...

Who was talking about debate?
