Well, i have been on some pretty potent shrooms, and instead of getting "The Jello Effect" it felt like i was way the fuck up in the air. It was pretty sexy.
... are ya'll kidding me?
Levitation
LOL
Everything blaine does is with a scripted audience, and they cut out the parts that show the truth.
Anyone ever heard the laws of physics? Or GRavIty?
The only thing close to realistic levitation I have ever heard of is this strange body maneuver monks did a long time ago, called the floating frog or something. Some way of bending your legs or something that made it look like you were hopping with ease.
IDK, i think it is possible to levitate if you found your real center and were really practiced at meditation....It IS all about being one with everything.
i thought everyone knew how to do blanes levitation criss angel is fucking brilliant but his stuff is done the same as blanes i dont think any of that is possible since theres a open test for years inviting anyone who thinks they can do anything like that to a lab to prove it and then get a million euro loads of people tried but no one passed lol
Only if your name is Peter
LSD... :)
Anything is possible within the mind.Quote:

i personally have never seen levitation, but i have seen/experienced lesser scale versions of "miraculous" events, and that has me convinced that even greater things could happen as well.
not that i beleive it or dis-believe it... but laws of physics would dictate there is no higher power either, but how many people believe in that?Quote:

It is reported he often gave a little shriek just before levitating, and on one occasion levitated for as long as two hours.
Saint Teresa of Avila was another well known saint who reported levitating. She told of experiencing it during states of rapture. One eyewitness, Sister Anne of the Incarnation, said Saint Teresa levitated a foot and a half off the ground for about a half hour.
Saint Teresa wrote of one of her experiences: "It seemed to me, when I tried to make some resistance, as if a great force beneath my feet lifted me up. I know of nothing with which to compare it; but it was much more violent than other spiritual visitations, and I was therefore as one ground to pieces."
This is the link to more: Levitation
there are these dudes in like, Malaysia or sumthin, who meditate so much, they can control their heartbeat, blood pressure, and gravitational force. their just very in tune with their bodies. everything has a gravitational force. and they can turn theirs all the way up and levitate about 3 cm off the ground.
lol. I'm just gonna keep my answer as :jointsmile:
This is way to cpomplex for 99% of the people... And I am actually floored that you typed THIS..Quote:

very nice mr. psycho
I don't believe levitation is really possible because it's an outright breaking of the laws of physics. The laws of physics, however, have been bent and manipulated in incredible ways by those who really come to understand their body, mind, and the forces utilized by both. There have been monks who could hold their breath for 8 minutes, balance their naked bodies on 4 sharp spears without penetration, walk on strait-up nails without falling through, little men who are unmoveable even by 5 huge strong men, create martial strikes that are deadly with only the tip of a finger, jump higher than normally humanly possible, stop their heart at will.... the list just goes on. One tibetan martial arts school I saw, with some INCREDIBLE monks, taught their practitioners the idea of "be heavy as a mountain, and light as a feather". These guys can smash large bricks by flipping and hitting them with the top of their head, transferring all the energy through their crown. They jump immensely high so gracefully (light as as feather), and come with with such incredible force to destroy large concrete bricks (heavy as a mountain).
The mind can do incredible things, and even release chemicals in the body that give you incredible abilities, but no amount of microscopic neural energy is going to be 1/1,000,000th enough to have a substantial enough strength to lift you off the ground. Sorry.

I levitated once as a child 6 or 7. I'm not sure how. I was about to wake my mother for work. As I leaned over to shake her my feet came out from under me and I hung there for a few seconds, stood back up and all was normal. It never happened again. Pretty weird. I wasn't under the influence of any drugs or anything. It just happened on it's own. Never told anyone about it 'till now.

*ahem*
monks have been known to bend and manipulate the accepted theory of physical processes.
Now aren't you going to tell me your love me after your delightful unwarranted condescension?
Fake. It's all done by angle, and lifting the leg that's in sight with the other leg that is not in sight. It's not very hard... except for getting the angle correct so the audience cannot see the leg you're using to lift the visible leg up with.Quote:

In fact, everything on this earth is energy, and there are ways to manipulate it. Read about Quantum Physics, and you'll see that just about anything is possible. Very confusing, though ;).Quote:

Try it out...
Why were we judging so much?
All of us judge too much don't we?
Even expiriences.
I walk around and think whether I like it, whether thats good or makes sense or whatever I'm thinking at the time...
But... stop... Slow down... expirience.
I have been asleep.
I am now awoken.
I feel a desire to share this great secret... That lingers near all along..
Do all beings have the same possibilities of awakening?
knowm.. how is what i said so profound? lol.. becasue i can observe and not make an opinion on it?
No opinion.Quote:

laws of physics definately prohibit levitation. dont u think someone would try to take all of the "magical" elements and make it purely scientific just to prove once and for all it can be done? thats crazy money if they could do it and replicate it- except they cant...everyone thought gravity was magic or spiritual to begin with but then people started getting smart and doing experiments
levitation IS possible.
that confuses me just as much.Quote:

Levitation? No I do not believe in that. If you can walk on water, take the boat.
Teleportation and Bi location I do believe in them.
Big difference.

Once one can still the mind or even observe the mind.. ONE never has to be offended BY anything...
For most people this process or HIGH level of stillness only comes after one has suffered MASSIVE amounts of emotional pain...(hint hint) ONE must SURRENDER TO THE NOW..(stop reacting) in order to get ALL the POWER!! lol

Mr. Devious.. I am very sorry if I was rude. I did not intend for my comment to be rude.. just playful...
I will be more careful :)

9.8 m/s^2, 32 ft/s^2 <- its all in there
so what makes levitation impossible compared to bi-location! is time travel involved???Quote:

Part of the responsibility of metaphysical power is to own the power but not to wield the power. The Sage wants to remain unknown. He doesnt need idiots worshiping him. He or She understands that as a member of this physical plane part of their job is to be apart of the physical world.
Teleporting and bi locating involve moving the physical body instantly to another location. In truth the sage pulls the other location to where he is.
The Sage has their own agenda. This can get messed up if others of the physical plane understand that he or she is the Sage.
I believe in astral travel so in some matter that could be considered levitation, because you could hover above were ever you wanted.
Levitation as a trick is a game of the ego.
The Sage does not play games.
some airforce heads think that its possible to create a UFO with 2 discs of rotating magnets (opposite polarities) can cause it to have anti-gravitational effects.
...now whether thats true or not is a different story.
im pretty sure it is cause dont they have trains that run on magnets? i think they float too....
eh.
Wake up Inferius...Quote:
