Quoting: Kashodi[link to www.mindscience.org] Among other videos, Penn and Teller talk about consciousness and the art of visual illusion. I've been reading a lot lately on how we can trick our minds into seeing or believing something. Stumbled across this and thought it might be worth a share. its amazing what our minds are capable of. its all conditioning and discipline. i wish i could watch it now but i will save it until i get home tonight thanks |

I wanted a better understanding of how and why people/authority manipulate others. This isn't a doom video, in fact there is a lot of humour. |

I can think of many CT that talk about that sort of illusion. I think we are facing a few of those "distractions" right now, and forgetting to think what the other hand is doing. |
