The term psychokinesis (from the Greek ψυχή, "psyche", meaning mind, soul, heart, or breath; and κίνησις, "kinesis", meaning motion, movement; literally "mind-movement"), also referred to as telekinesis (Greek τῆλε + κίνησις, literally "distant-movement") with respect to strictly describing movement of matter, sometimes abbreviated PK and TK respectively, is a term coined by publisher Henry Holt to refer to the direct influence of mind on a physical system that cannot be entirely accounted for by the mediation of any known physical energy. Examples of psychokinesis could include distorting or moving an object, and influencing the output of a random number generator. The study of phenomena said to be psychokinetic is part of parapsychology. Some psychokinesis researchers claim psychokinesis exists and deserves further study, although the focus of research has shifted away from large-scale phenomena to attempts to influence dice and then to random number generators. Most scientists believe that the existence of psychokinesis has not been convincingly demonstrated. A meta-analysis of 380 studies in 2006 found a "very small" effect which could be explained by publication bias. PK experiments have historically been criticised for lack of proper controls and repeatability. However, some experiments have created illusions of PK where none exists, and these illusions depend to an extent on the subject's prior belief in PK. TerminologyFrom Wikipedia under the
GNU Free Documentation License How does Psychokinesis work? Q. For Psychokinesis, does both player take damage or just the player who plays Psychokinesis or the player that got the card destroy?

Answered by Chilaxin' - Mon Sep 21 19:05:35 2009 How do I control my new found psychokinesis powers? Q. I can move objects with my mind, but only when I'm stoned. Let me explain. Exactly three weeks ago I was walking back to my dorm room after smoking a blunt in this field behind it. I went to attempt to throw my water bottle into a trash can a solid 15-20 feet away. Before I could even throw it, the bottle flew from my hand and swished into the trash can. I stood there for a second stunned. I hadn't even pulled my arm back to throw it. I rationalized the whole thing by just thinking how stoned I was. Today, I was hanging out with a couple other guys and we were just about to smoke a second bowl. My friend says "pass me the grinder," and I look down at it and it slides across the table to him. We all saw it and immediately freaked out.

I do believe it exists out there, as I've seen it happen to certain people in my life. I've also heard a lot of stories about people doing it subconsciously and without their will. MAYBE when you were stoned, you were subconsciously tapping into your telekinetic ability. And the reason it had to happen subconsciously is because your conscious mind inhibits it from doing it. Think about it this way, when you dream, an unlimited no. of possibilities happen bc your subconscious takes over and your conscious mind isnt active. When your consciousness is gone and not there to tell you "its impossible," it suddenly DOES become possible. Also, if you wanna be able to control it on… [cont.] Answered by innosinse - Fri Aug 1 01:30:05 2008 Does the card psychokinesis inflict 1000 points of damage on the opponent or does the user suffer it.?
