okay, i've had this theory for a few months, i've been trying to think of every possibility, please read through and give me some feedback. thanks!


aliens, a spiritual world, the afterlife (what actually happens), the TRUTH behind the reality of dreams, the truth about ghosts, etc.
it is something i have always believed, i have a huge theory which i believe, which i will tell later in the topic. However, there are so many documentations around the world of the unknown, the whereabouts of the afterlife, etc. that something MUST be out there, something that no human being could possibly get their head round. there has got to be something so big, so detailed, so complex that the human brain could not handle - and THIS leads me to my point.


I BELIEVE WE CAN FLY, FLOAT, AND CARRY SPECIAL ABILITIES.

sound crazy? yes, of course, sounds childish - but here's my theory:-
the thing is, scientists and researchers solely believe that we only use, at most, 15% of our brain's FULL power and ability. that means that there is 85% of our brain that is unexplored. Just think - if there was a way to use the full mass of our brain's potential - well, it goes beyond saying that there would be some completely amazing things that could be done. I believe that somehow, every one of us can unlock that 85%. I believe that if any of us fully focused our energy in our head, fully explored the mind, then i think that extra brain potential could be opened - a little like hacking. you see, i am a hacker, as some of you already know, and over 6 years of hacking, i have tried to transfer my knowledge to the matters of life. Yes, i undestand this might not sound too dissimilar to ''the matrix'' storyline, but if you think this through, this idea is completely individual. i don't think anybody has thought of this theory before. and i think that there is some way we can ''hack'' into our own minds, fully explore that unused 85% and use it to our own disposal.
there are 2 types of people that i think have already tried this.

These are fully-focused ''magicians'' (the experts, the people who practice it, not people like paul daniels) and ninjas (the people who practice the nin-jitsu martial art). These people have amazing self-discipline, and train every hour they can. They really understand and focus on everything they do.

i think even skateboarding can be applied to this theory. some of the tricks skaters pull, e.g., rodney mullen's phenomenal flip sequences are just crazy and make people wonder. ''skateboarding and the perception of time'' - think about it. when you pull a trick , time moves differently. sailing over a stair set - just think, time does not occur in the same way as it normally does.

and if you think what i've typed so far is ad as toast, this is really gonna blag your heads - sit down one night, one clear, starry night, lie down and look up straight into the stars. clear your head, and just think - why are we here? what is life's purpose - and even more to the point HOW did we all get here? how did the world as we know it today develop from ''prehistoric man'' - no language, no communication - no civilisation?? how have we got all this technology, who thought up all these ideas of using electric - one of the, if not the most harmful substance IN THE WORLD, to be used as something that could improve life??

so, i want your thoughts on everything in life, and it's purpose. it sounds farfetched, but look into the galaxy, think that there is inifinite space and have many billions of planets there are with life. think - no human has ever explored to the other side of a black hole. what i'm trying to say is – WE ARE NOT ALONE, be it aliens, supernatural beings, people who have fully explored and unlocked their brains.

if you see things the way i'm beginning to - we are so low developed - and if we have evolved from pre-historic man then how much % of their brain must they have used???

now, what are ghosts? the spirits of the dead, or, if you look at it in my theory - a gateway between earth life and the supernatural life? i believe that whenever someone sees a ghost, this gateway is open. we can see each other, but cannot touch each other. i believe that when we see a ghost, the ghost itself also gets scared - because in this ''other'' world, we would appear how this ''ghost'' appears to us. this is why neither 'us'' or the ''ghosts'' cannot touch each other - there's actually NOTHING there to be touched.

dreams - i also believe that when you go to sleep and dream, you actually open a small fraction of that 85% and use it at your soul disposal. you notice you can sometimes fly and do these ''things'' in dreams - but you cannot control your dreams - unless you train your mind both mentally and physically. there is a way - it's simply finding that way.

well, there is my philosophy, what i believe, what i think.

JUST THINK ABOUT IT - YOU'LL GET IT.

If I remember correctly, people actually do use the whole brain, only 10-20% at one time.

Am I right?


Found a link, too: The Ten Percent Myth

i have to say i like your view. I've pondered that to an extent and have alot of the same felings you do on this matter.

I agree with you for the most part. I'm still trying to perfect my Jedi mind tricks, and construct my lightsaber though.

I feel the force is strong with gonzowalker

I have had the same thoughts you speak of and I totally agree with you Scumbag

Phantom , great linkage .... oops!! thought this was the flirting thread

Aww damn Saxcatz, I worked so hard on that one...

Sorry about that, man.

There is a reason why our brain operates the way it does. The brain is fueled by oxygen which is carried to it in our blood's hemoglobin. To function normally, it requires 25% of the bodies oxygen intake. In order for the brain to function at 100% it would require huge amounts of oxygen. This would quickly deplete the hemoglobin of oxygen, and brain damage would result due to oxygen depravation.

Also, if it were possible to use 100% of the brain at once, this would lead to sensory/regulatory system overload since all neurons would be firing simultaneously. At best his would result in wild hallucinations, and at worse a massive, and potentially fatal, seizure.

Just my 2 cents.

Besides the one tiny error Phantom, you had other great points...... What about those????

I put telepathy or telecinesis down to people who are able to use a greater protion of their brain for any given task...although I'm sketchy about it. As The Source said, there is a very fundamental reason why our use of the brain is so limited

Hi everybody!

This is my first post in this forum, so go easy on me!! And i'm sorry about my english...

Of course we use 100% of our brain! Why do you think nature or evolution would grant us with something as powerful as a brain and leave some blanks to fill in for our pleasure?? The fact is we don't use 100% of it intentionally! Don't you guys think the brain has better things to do than to cook up ideas all the time?? It's responsable for the correct functioning of one of natures great achievements, a sencient being!! And it still has enough capability to come up with some of the best or worst ideas of all time, such as astonishing creation and theory (like Einstein ), or destruction!

Don't be so concerned about what the brain could do; sometimes we misuse so poorly what it can do now!!

Just for the sake of argument, try and find out something about trepanation!
Or on new theories and facts about the brain read "Descartes mistake" (i think this is the correct translation to english) by Antonio R. Damasio.

This whole idea of a super-powerful brain makes me think of a comic from "Cadillacs and Dinossaurs" where a scientist creates a fluid that turns the brain into a superbrain but then the brain becomes a living thing itself and bursts out of the scientist's head! His and others...

ok i hate to sound like the token Junkie but i was reading that psilocybin mushrooms inrease the seratonin level of the brain. there are some links on erowid.org on studies with mushrooms and the if they really expand the mind or just make you trip.

But that's not how the brain works. Many parts of your mind recieve information from multiple other areas (obviously). But the problem is they can't do it all at the same time. So there is a definite limit (AFAIK) on number of tasks the brain can acomplish at once.

Consider the jellyfish. I remember reading that there have been jellyfish since before the dinosaurs, yet over millions of years they have hardly evolved at all. Not so much a theory, but more an idea; what if these creatures had evolved mentally and are vastly superior to humans. We humans seem to gauge our success as intellectuals on our physical accomplishments, such as buildings or inventions. But what if some beings actually 'existed' in some alternate realm made possible by some kind of telekinesis or remote viewing. A lifeform capable of this may have quite a basic physical form, and in 'our' existance may seem quite basic, much in the same way we concentrate all our efforts towards the real world and not towards dreams or meditation. Just a thought...

Just going to toss in my 2 cents worth… I find it interesting that the human brain is more active while we sleep then when we go throughout our waking day… Always baffled me that one?

[no human has ever explored to the other side of a black hole.[QUOTE]

Please dont get offended by this, but there is no otherside of a Black hole the way you are describing a blackhole is that it is a 2 dimensional object. Which is not true
A Black Hole is a collapsed star in which not even light can escape although I believe under certain conditions it may be possible to escape a black hole if your still not completely Destroyed.

You have to look at a black hole as a 3 dimensional object lets say you could compare a black hole to a Fishermans Net which is used to trap fish, as the fish enter in the path of the net they become trapped and are used for food.
A black hole does just the same anything that crosses its path becomes enveloped into its singularity, because its gravity is so overwhelming, and it feeds until there is nothing left to feed on or until it grows so big that it cannot consume anything else.

What you were trying to say is that we do not Know what is Beyond a Wormhole,
which is theorized to be able to be connected with different space time, if one could hold it open long enough, Thus creating what is a Quantum Leap.

You have an interesting theory. I agree with most of it. wow didnt know there were more posts. Well nevermind ignore me.

The Nameless one...

I disagree with your point concerning the blackhole... how exactly can u state that blackhole is like a fishing net? How do you really know that noone comes out of it? Yes the hole's gravity is extraordinary and it's possibly one of the most intresting creations on the universe but what if the blackhole is exactly the time travel device that people are lookin for at all times and that is why there is "no coming back"? What if a black hole is just a planet inside? Not a single person has ever gone in the black hole and shared either his/her experiences after the trip or their experiences seconds before they disappeared and were never heard of again. I doubt that any time in the near any of us will know what a black hole is, anyways.

As of the brain.. 10-20% sounds like too much. I remember hearing that some of the smartest people on earth use only around 3-5%. But no matter how much it is... it is still an extremely tiny amount of brain to use. Im sure there is some type of a key to that knowledge and it is not studying at a highschool and university for 10 years.

Also i have read somewhere that there are versions that dreams are actually sort of a parallel dimension to our real life and indeed our real life is our dreams and our dreams are our real life. All the dreams are connected. so basically u living to lives.. one at night (in 1 world) and the other one durin day (in other world). This is really a fascinating topic and as many opinions as we get it will take many generations to arrive to the answer. If i can recall it correctly someone mentioned controling dreams at night..... i can only control half my dreams, and all my dreams are 3D with real life images. I actually confuse the real life with my dreams a lot due to the similarity in the places and events and people. During my dreams i can sort of realize that i am dreaming... like i actually say in my dream "THIS IS MY DREAM" and then i can do anything, i can go anywhere i want i can get anything i want, i can get anyone i want, and lastly i can wake up whenever i want all i have to do is really wish to wake up. and it actually works. Ive been gettin better at it with years and now it's trully insane how similar my dreams are to my life.

o, i see...

well sorry for misunderstanding

As for the whole thing with nothing can escape the "black hole" and u say thats what scientist say, yes thats true, but what im saying is that there are some things in this world that science can't explain... or at least human science at our current level can't explain... I agree with you that that's the general idea of the black hole but for some reason my personal opinion on the black whole is that it is something we can't even think of yet.

"Which is also why you will never see light surrounding a black hole, as many pictures from Nasa have proven this."


I have to disagree with you on this one, Sh3vA!

First, if there was no light surrouding a black hole or in it, how could it be seen in a picture???
If a black hole is orbiting a greater star, like a giant blue, then the overheated matter flies away into the black hole ! The hole itself is invisible but the overheated matter is not.
It's like when a giant is orbited by a white dwarf. The disk that forms around the white dwarf, from the stellar matter it is stealing from it's larger "friend" is always seen.

When that matter is compressed into the event horizon, and slips into it, a burst of x-rays is emmited and does escape the black hole. It works as a beacon, pulsing like the radio pulse of a neutron star (after all, that's what a black hole is: a super neutron star).

When the black hole is not orbiting any larger body, then it is able to be detected through the gravitational micro-lensing phenomena. When it passes in front of another star, the light we see is deformed because of the effect of the black hole.

if only i didn't suck at maths, physics is interesting:)

Ah... but can he tie his shoelaces?

[QUOTE]now, what are ghosts? the spirits of the dead, or, if you look at it in my theory - a gateway between earth life and the supernatural life? i believe that whenever someone sees a ghost, this gateway is open. we can see each other, but cannot touch each other. i believe that when we see a ghost, the ghost itself also gets scared - because in this ''other'' world, we would appear how this ''ghost'' appears to us. this is why neither 'us'' or the ''ghosts'' cannot touch each other - there's actually NOTHING there to be touched.

You theory doesn't vary much from my own beleifs. But I believe that like fault lines that cause Earthquakes, "Paranormal lines" are the fault lines of the Universe where space and time tend to get warped with paralell universe's and like you say we actually appear to ghosts as ghosts appear to us!

Is it me or does anyone not follow me on what i have just said? ... Does this theory of mine make sense?... Need people's opinions on this, and i don't mind a few criticism.

Oh yea Nax, that picture of yours is really disturbing.

are you saying ' the greater the oxygen intake , the greater the brain power ' ?

If So , then why doesnt Moe have any psychic experiences while blowing up ballons? It just makes us dizzy.....

It makes good sense and Moe applauds your theory. Moe will also be doing you a favor as he will be testing said theory.

So next time I blow up a balloon, I shall focus my mental energies on moving random objects.

Moe will get back to you with the results soon.

I think you guys got me all wrong, I didn't say that the discussion of the balloon was part of the meditation or breathing techniques, and i don't think blowing up a balloon while attempting telekinesis or any other psychic ability will work.

Note what i said about your intentions and how you can't do so many things at one time. I'm sure most of you guys know that practicing any psychic ability requires your full attention and concentration. That is why, i think, you can't attempt psychic abilities while blowing up a balloon.

Ahha! Your theory is correct , Blue-Scorpion. Testing my psychic abilites while blowing up a ballon proved that you are one of the great thinkers of our time. The results were negative as you so predicted. For this, Moe salutes you.
One cannot practice psychic abilites while blowing up a baloon. Therefore , Moe has taken it upon himself to test his psychic abilites while blowing up a beach ball. The said beach ball is twice the diameter of the balloon, thereby enabling more lung contractions.
Moe will get back to Professor Blue-Scorpian with the results soon.

I don't think i'm one of the greatest thinkers of our time nor am i a professor, but thanks for the compliment. I'm just an average teenager with a few average grades. Well if i tried more often than not, in school i'd do a lot better, and this goes for anyone else.

Anyways thanks for testing my theory, or should i say our theory. Since you are the one testing it, i have to give you some credit.

However, i'd like to know what psychic abilities you are using to test this theory of mine.

Moe has yet to put a name to his psychic abilities. In high school I developed the ability to make the classroom flag flutter by concentrating. I am also able to understand the archetypal values one is under the inlfuence of at any given time.
