Actual magic is real, actually (video)

What if there were an Eightfold Path of Science? There is now, thanks to Dr. Radin. Can yoga and meditation unleash our inherent supernormal mental powers, such as telepathy, clairvoyance, invisibility, and precognition?

Is it really possible to
  • perceive another person's thoughts and intentions?
  • influence objects with our minds?
  • envision future events?
And is it possible that some of the superpowers described in ancient legends, science fiction, and comic books are actually REAL, and patiently waiting for us behind the scenes?

Are we now poised for an evolutionary trigger to pull the switch and release our full potentials?

Chief Scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS) Dean Radin is the best-selling author of The Conscious Universe. He presents persuasive new experimental evidence for the existence of such phenomena.

He takes us on a thrilling scientific journey and challenges outdated assumptions that these abilities are mere superstition.

Focusing on Patanjali's mysterious Yoga Sutras -- 2,000-year-old meditation practices believed to release our extraordinary powers -- Dr. Radin offers powerful evidence confirming that sometimes fact is much stranger, spookier, and more wonderful than the wildest fiction. More


There is practice of trance (deep concentration) to become an adept capable of real magic, as Dr. Dean Radin, Ph.D. explains in his book Real Magic, and there is the mental masturbation of endless talking, theorizing, and conjecturing, positing strategies and conceptual frameworks for how it might work when the wheel has already been invented, the actions already taken and verified, the path known and walked by amateurs and adepts. But still the thinkers need to get their head around how magic could work, so we have videos like this for those. In Buddhism, "magic" is known as abhinna ("higher knowledge") and iddhis (siddhis). One would be wise to first get one's virtue in order, by a supernormal attainment of insight, before dabbling in the dangerous playground that is PSI and psychic feats.

Actual magic is actually real, actually

Real magic? Yes, says Dr. Radin
The chief scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS) turns a critical eye toward such practices as
  • telepathy,
  • clairvoyance,
  • precognition, and
  • psychokinesis.
Are such powers really possible? Science says yes. According to noted scientist and bestselling author of The Conscious Universe: The Scientific Truth of Psychic Phenomena, Dr. Dean Radin, Ph.D., magic is a natural aspect of reality, and each of us can tap into this power with diligent practice.

But wait, aren't things like ESP and telepathy just wishful thinking and flights of the imagination?

Not according to the author, who worked on the U.S. government's top secret psychic espionage program known as Stargate.
The Conscious Universe
Dr. Radin has spent the last 40 years conducting controlled experiments that demonstrate that thoughts are things, that we can sense others' intentions and emotions from a distance, that intuition is more powerful than we thought, and that we can tap into the power of intention (think The Secret, only on a more realistic and scientific level).

These dormant powers can help us to lead more interesting and fulfilling lives.

Beginning with a brief history of magic over the centuries (what was called magic 2,000 years ago is turning out to be scientific fact today), a review of the scientific evidence for magic, a series of simple but effective magical techniques (the key is mental focus, something elite athletes [and meditators] know a lot about), Dr. Radin then offers a vision of a scientifically-informed magic and explains why magic will play a key role in frontiers of science.
