Since the "eyes are the window to the soul"..could that be why your eyes have to be open during telekinesis ..

Question

..and automatic writing and using the ouija board? Do you think that the spirits come into us and communicate through our eyes?

Answer 1

That is an incorrect assumption. Most PSI work is done with the eyes closed.

Answer 2

That's an old proverb that nobody knows the real origins of.

The reason why you need your eyes open is because it is you who is manipulating the object, the pen, or the planchette, via ideomotor effect. There is no reason to to think that spirits are at work when natural explanations abound. Regarding writing, however, most people can still produce some legible writing with their eyes closed.

EDIT: Sounds like this fellow knew he could influence your power of suggestion. That's all it would take. Some people just like to appear scary or intimidating to see its effect on other people.

Answer 3

I think many people close their eyes during telekinesis when they are attempting to visualize the result ( a pair of sixes on two rolled dice) rather than trying to move the dice to that position (that would be impossible so most people believe right?).

Humans are very visually oriented creatures and writing (automatic or not) is an activity built around the assumption of sight as is the Ouija board.

What would the results of a braille Ouija board show?

What would automatic coded musical notes (sound rather than writing) look like?

If spirits used our eyes that would explain why people blind folded (or the letters covered) do so poorly with Ouija boards (of course this is not the simplest explanation and not the one that should be tested first).

If ESP is at work and not spirits the person would of course need his/her eyes and writing ability as well.

Just FYI hypnosis is used to influence people and this is usually done with the person being hypnotized with his/her eyes closed (despite how many "look deeply into my eyes" B rated vampires movie that show otherwise).

Answer 4

Wrong. Eyes are the window to your mind, if both are open.

Answer 5

Beware of all that evil,you are walking on the Serpents path! The path is wide and many there be that find it!

Answer 6

Your "eyes are..." don't make it. It's the third eye that would do it. Do not play with the Ouija board and do not call spirits. Because those spirits are in the lowest level close to us, and are not good, even bad, such as on the board. Do not play that game, you'll regret forever. You won't be able to remove them from you. Honestly, you're on a real steep hill down.

Take care and forget that stuff.

Answer 7
