I imagine most of you will continue to disbelieve, largely because you may not have the background preparation for understanding the new paradigms emerging
I can't watch the video from where I am right now but I would like to preclude that this is not legitimate research. Are we able to verify each of the 1600 cases? How was this research done? What does this have to do with the 21st?

I doubt either of you even watched the beginning of the first video, or if you did do so did it in a fashion in which you'd already put up a mental barrier and hence might have not noticed the presentation was a summary of work of over 1,600 cases. If you can watch that many people have the same experience and still discount it, well I don't know what to say....
Additionally, if you'd noticed, the presenter openly states she is not trying to convince anyone or change their mind, only presenting a vast amount of data over her many years of research. The least you could do is honor that.
That's a fine time to enjoy such a video as nearing the sleep state the brainwaves change to alpha where receiving complex information in a short amount of time becomes easier to comprehend in a holistic way

Float from one video to the next, letting your personal preference, intuition (or for men, "gut reaction"?) guide, making sure it resonates with you.

Any time someone uses the word 'Path" to define their life choices tells me that this person is a flake.

Don't bother with pseudo-skeptics like Karen. They are fundamentalists. The best you can hope for is that you force them to re-arrange their prejudices. What's the use of that? Ignore them.

Just a thought. Perhaps since the Mayans didn't predict anything would happen, they were correct in some way. Since they foresaw nothing and nothing happend, they were the true prophets of "nothing will happen"
Robert Matthews called it "the most sophisticated attempt yet" to prove psychokinesis existed, but cited the unreliability of significant events to cause statistically significant spikes, concluding "the only conclusion to emerge from the Global Consciousness Project so far is that data without a theory is as meaningless as words without a narrative".
