Hi Radical,
I think it's good to have open discussions. Your question is an interesting one: how can you prove it's your intentions manifesting or just plain coincidence?
If we turn the question around; how can we prove it's just coincidence instead of your intentions manifesting, I think we realize we can't.
A conundrum!
Even Jung speculated on the nature of
synchronicity.
How about when
groups of people come together to meditate and crime rates drop? Doubtful? Maybe. Anyway to really prove it? Doubt it.
How about
random number generators that spike bizzarely before significant events occur? Interesting...but what does it
really mean?
The only explaination I know from science that could have anything to do with the I-M model is the probable explaination for the
double-slit experiment: nothing is real until it is observed, or that the act of observing something changes it.
So we can say that at the smallest unit of the universe, our thoughts do seem to affect our reality. The problem (as I understand it, not being a physicist) is that quantum theory only works at the level of the small, it breaks down for big objects in which Newtonian physics still rules.
Comes down to it, it's a matter of belief systems. The Catch-22 about a subjective belief system is that it's subjective.
