I have describe the phenomenon. Energy is more hard to define. by touch i meen unseen poking grabbing of arms. As a child growing up in my house i had this constant and always centered in one room. Still to this day when i return it happens. Auditory... like a medium who hears phenomena. Oh that's right not all are delusional or hallucinating. haunted.. to me is images of the past mainly human figures that people see, hear, feel in certain areas. |

| What you have described still amounts to a testimonial of some, admittedly, poorly defined energy. Not much for anyone to either confirm or refute. |

| Actually, the word "energy," when used properly, is startlingly easy to define: It's "the ability a physical system has to do work on other physical systems." If it's being used to mean something else, it's not energy. In such a case, it's more likely being used to lay a sense of scientific-sounding respectability upon some kind of woo. |

A hallucination isn't confined to visual displays. A hallucination can involve any one sense, or a combination of any number of them, including smell, sound, and touch.

As a guy who reads up on magic books and practice mentalism when I can, all I can say is that there are multiple ways of doing something, which can create the same illusion. I did a mentalism effect where I asked my friend to think of a person that she knew back in school (keep in mind I do not know where she went, and who were friends with her back then) and I wrote a name down. The prediction I wrote down was right, including other predictions. I can't tell how these magic tricks are done, as they are not my trick, but all I can say is that there isn't just cold reading, there's a lot more variables.
Also there's false memories as well. That same friend I did tricks to, during one of the tricks I asked her to give me the answer (not bluntly, but in a long spiel and she told me)and later on that night I repeated her answer like psychic guess. When I asked her then next day if she knew how the trick was done, she didn't even remember I asked her any questions (like psychic readings to most people), She just said she was surprised and didn't know how.
Most human memory can't remember verbatim, especially as time goes on. the brain summarizes everything it thinks is meaningful, and forgets the rest, and a lot of times these are the subtle information magicians make sure people forget--because these subtle information are where the tricks are laid. Hope everyone understands what I'm saying because I'm super tired, and was up doing HW. Now I'm passing out. |
