Well, you have heard of burial sites being protected but from your previous posts, you probably do not believe that is possible/true, so what can I say other than why should I explain it if you are not likely to believe it. You might as well look it up on Google. Why do you NOT believe energy in whatever form has intelligence? YOU have intelligence and YOU are energy (not physical at all). So, what created you?

Since many millions of people believe that an earnest intention of energy/will sent out can effect an outcome at the other end. It is commonly called prayer.

I believe we are all creators of our own 3D hologram which we call reality. This is the basis for all the books on creative visualisation, the Secret, and so many positive thinking books throughout history. There is a Universal Law which says energy flows towards where you place your attention/intention and this is the basis for creating your reality. Try it sometime.

Depends on what you mean by "protected." You're painting with too broad a brush. I'm just trying to nail down exactly what you mean.

Okay. "Thought form" yields ...

noun: thought form; plural noun: thought forms; noun: thoughtform; plural noun: thoughtforms
(especially in Christian theology) a combination of presuppositions, imagery, and vocabulary current at a particular time or place and forming the context for thinking on a subject.

https://medschool.co/exam/psych/thought-form
Thought form refers to the formation and coherence of a patient's thoughts. Formal thought disorders are derangements of this form, resulting in thoughts that are often difficult to follow or understand.

---

https://pranickolkata.com/thought-forms/
According to ancient teachings, during your process of thinking and feeling there are two phenomena which take place. The first is that you create a Thought Form (or a Thought Entity). A thought form is a real living being or entity which is created by the process of thinking.

In one of his letters to AP Sinnett, Master KH wrote: “Thoughts are things — have tenacity, coherence, and life, — that they are real entities.” Thought Forms in general are usually very weak and have a very short life-span… unless you know the art and science of creating a powerful thought form (we will discuss the topic of powerful thought forms later in this article).

---

More go on from there. So what do YOU mean by "thought form?"

Again, you are painting with too broad a brush. If I spill my coffee, the hot liquid falling to wherever definitely has energy. Do you really think it has intelligence? Have I just committed murder by spilling my coffee?

Of your 3 statements there, 2 are correct. I have (limited) intelligence. I am a form of energy. But I VERY MUCH am physical. So are you. Just because the material cosmos is composed of energy (in various forms) does not mean that it isn't physical. It just means, like most things in life, that ... it's complicated.

Depends on what you're asking. An intense discussion on the physical and theological origins of the universe is probably beyond the scope of this thread. If you really want to go there, start a new discussion topic. I might jump in now and then.

So by "thought form" did you just mean "prayer?" Why not say so? Why obfuscate?

If that were true, I'd be enjoying a fine beverage by a fire in Rivendell right now.

No, but you have committed a mortal sin. Thou shalt not spill the brown elixir of life.

Or is my late husband used to call it? “thinky juice“.

Somebody needs to go rogue. Break away from all the television nonsense.
It’s all so played out and tired. Just like “bigfooting”. There need to be a completely new approach to all of this stuff.

In my experience antagonism isn't the best approach.

Start with EVP and go from there.

Even if someone has a 'good idea' which may be the new format, how would they get it before the film/TV makers? I suspect they look at other shows and other formats and try to come up with a similar show to cash-in on the good thing. That approach does not mean anything new happens.

Perhaps we need to go to the up-and-coming producers to give us something new, but again, how to get in touch with them?

I think we are fed up with the non-scientific approach and although some shows are going in that direction, it is not far enough to have any meaningful outcome to the main issue for a lot of people - which is whether something like Bigfoot exists.

I also think that if something can be filmed or photographed, it can be faked. Not just with paranormal stuff, but anything. That's another reason I don't bother with the news. Seeing something televised on the evening news doesn't make me an eyewitness.

I'm a big believer in ghosts/spirits/paranormal jazz, but I also know that footage of any kind can just as easily be fake as it can be fact. It can be interesting to watch, but I keep that proverbial grain of salt handy anyway.

In my case, I've seen enough personally that I don't require film-footage to be convinced.

One of the reason GHOST FILES is so much fun is that it has two hosts: One a believer in ghosts in the paranormal, and one who is a diehard skeptic. Is it good research? No. But it's fun entertainment.

Where I am, they show images of spacecraft moving through space - as if it is real. We are supposed to believe there is a camera in space capturing the spacecraft as it passes by. Now, since I dont speak or understand much of the language, they may say it is an artists impression, but on the other hand it is so easy to assume your audience will know and understand it is is a graphic representation of the truth. Trouble is, most of them dont know this and assume it is a picture of the actual spacecraft.

I am sure other places and TV channels do the same thing, and no-one bothers to think about where the camera shot comes from.
