occult phenomenon
Supernatural phenomenon: an extreme phenomenon that transcends the conventional and knowable range of natural science, and is considered impossible or unexplainable because it transcends the limits of contemporary natural science knowledge. These phenomena with uncertain authenticity are not generally recognized by mainstream scientists. These extraordinary phenomena that are difficult to reproduce are considered as pseudoscience, and some of them are confirmed by phenomena that can be reproduced and reproduced. These include human beings with special functions (prediction, perspective, mental development), and events that happen occasionally and cannot be explained by common sense, such as: The Curse of Tutankhamen (It has been confirmed that Tutankhamun's curse is a rumor. Most members of the archaeological team died of natural causes, including Carter, the first to enter the pyramid) Supernatural photo Etc; Sudden disappearance, UFO incident, etc., and other similar phenomena were identified as true, but could not be immediately explained.
For example, many people have seen UFOs; However, their interpretations of UFOs are quite different. The Tunguska Big Bang is an obvious and undeniable supernormal phenomenon, but the reasons for the explosion can be explained from comets to the cross dimensional rips of supernatural phenomena.
In addition, it was also pointed out that the word Paranormal was used as a substitute for the word Supernatural derived from natural science, which was regarded as a lot of mysterious religious phenomena. The supernatural phenomenon is just like this. Sometimes abnormal things really happen. The supernatural phenomenon is actually a kind of supernormal phenomenon, some of which are studied as parapsychology, and are divided into three levels:
Mental phenomenon: An unusual mental state or ability, such as telepathy, perspective, and prediction.
Physical phenomena: unusual physical actions that can be manipulated and controlled by conscious beings, such as willpower, narrow-minded ghosts, holy traces and entities.
Remaining phenomenon: OBE, NDE.
However, if we can grasp the infinite evidence of a certain research object, we can attribute the supernatural phenomenon to the normal. This idea should be applied to the interpretation of such phenomena. Because there is no infinite evidence in reality, the natural things are mysterious.

Belief

occult phenomenon
Believe in the existence of God, ghosts and gods, gods and Buddhas soul , or other gods beyond human perception. This field has a long history, mainly involving national customs and religions. Due to different religious policies in different countries, there are also differences in research, disclosure and criticism. On the whole, it is developing towards openness, contention, and doubt. The disciplines involved include philosophy, religion, politics, psychology, and social sciences involving relevant research methods.

Human function

Some people have special abilities beyond ordinary people, and have the ability to perceive the supernatural and hypermaterial world, which causes others to worship. This includes: special functions, namely the transfer of functions of sensory and perceptual organs (ear recognition, skin recognition, eye opening, etc.); Remote sensing, such as remote sensing the situation of someone or something thousands of miles away through "power generation" and regulating it (claiming to be able to predict the success and failure of satellite launch, use Qigong field to extinguish the forest fire in the Great Xing'an Mountains, etc.); Spiritual media, that is, some people have the ability to communicate with the gods. They can report the needs of the world to the gods and get their blessing. They can also convey the will of the gods and ask people how to do so as to dispel disasters and eliminate evils and difficulties. The typical manifestations of this aspect are witchcraft and witch doctors.

Natural Sophistication

That is, there are some objective existence, claims or phenomena in nature that cannot be explained by science and evidence. This includes the mysterious buildings along the 30th line of north latitude, the Nice Monster Shennongjia Savage, Tianchi monster, Bigfoot monster, crystal skull, and some large species destruction, regional disasters, etc. It is mainly believed that there is a kind of creature in the universe that is beyond human intelligence and can control and affect the activities of the earth, or has visited the earth, leaving some buildings or features that are difficult for human beings to crack.

Heaven man interaction

occult phenomenon
This kind of heaven man interaction is different from the ancient Chinese concept of heaven man interaction. The ancient Chinese concept of heaven man interaction is a simple philosophical concept. Although it also has the color of superstition, it was an advanced concept in the social background at that time,
It is progressive. Even today, it still has reference significance in some aspects; And what I mean here Heaven man interaction It refers to connecting human destiny with some phenomena in the universe and the sky, believing that human destiny is controlled by these phenomena, or human destiny can be predicted and controlled through these phenomena in the sky. Western astrology and constellations belong to this category. With the deepening of China's reform and opening up, these superstitions are also wantonly invaded, and spread widely with far-reaching impact.

Geomancy or alchemy

This kind of technology is usually based on experience, connecting the rise and fall of human society and personal honor and disgrace with some simple phenomena, through which to predict and judge the good or bad of things; Such as lottery fortune telling, geomantic omen, character testing, physiognomy, character testing, gossip, etc. Since these technologies are based on experience rather than factual evidence, we can call them non scientific technologies. But this kind of unscientific technology is not totally unreasonable. It has its own "theoretical system", and sometimes can draw many things consistent with the facts according to the theory. In addition, it has a long history of existence, so many people believe it. Since ancient times, some people rely on it for a living, which has a profound impact on the people.

Extrasensory perception

edit
Extrasensory perception (ESP for short) commonly known as the sixth sense, it is a kind of ability that some people think exists. This ability can receive information through channels other than normal senses, and can predict what will happen, regardless of the inference from the accumulated experience of the parties. The senses (five senses) of ordinary people include eyes (vision), ears (hearing), nose (smell), tongue (taste), skin (touch) or other senses familiar to modern science.
Because the definition of sense is vague, so is the definition of "super sense". But it is generally believed that "super sensory" refers to information that is not yet familiar to science today.
Super sensory perception belongs to the research category of super psychology. The research objects mainly include the following:
1. Thought transmission, that is, long-distance thought exchange between people.
2. Distinctive perception, including remote viewing, refers to the ability to see things outside the normal vision range and objects sealed or blocked by perspective; use organ of hearing Look at things; Use skin to perceive color, etc. This kind of phenomenon is called body specific function in China.
3. Presumption refers to the pre perception of future things.
4. Mind actuation is a phenomenon that reflects the influence or control of physical objects by the power of the mind.

Trends

Internationally, the treatment of anomalies by both the East and the West is combined with local customs and culture, which is superstitious. Both countries with a rich history and culture, and countries close to modern civilization, are deeply rooted in folk culture, and are manifested at all levels, except that different levels have different dependence on this superstition.
occult phenomenon
From the perspective of popular trends and manifestations, this abnormal phenomenon and the accompanying culture are obviously characterized by "demand orientation", that is, they flow to regions with strong demand. Moreover, this "demand orientation" is adapted to the "profit motive", so that it is easy to achieve the combination of supply and demand, pushing waves and helping waves. To a place where people are concentrated, market demand is large, unknown factors are many, and survival competition is fierce.
This form of expression, in foreign countries, is more popular in the political circles, media, film and television; In China, both communicators and believers are mainly vulnerable groups, while in the region, they are "three hospitals and two districts", namely colleges, hospitals, courts, development zones and tourist areas (see《 Perspective of modern superstition 》)This spreading trend has the characteristics of transferring to the urban-rural fringe or the areas where migrant workers are concentrated. Moreover, the scale of its personnel has the same transformation law as the rural production season. This shows that, from the perspective of communication mode and place, in the traditional mode, the people who spread and believe are mainly rural people, but with the transfer of rural activists - major workers - most of them go to cities to work, the superstitious market also shifts.
In terms of modern communication methods, such as network and media communication, both communication and audience are mainly urban residents. More importantly, it shows the trend of younger and more knowledgeable audience. Younger age refers to the participation of primary and secondary school students and college students, who are highly educated and have mastered the use of modern means of communication, and can covertly spread and use them; Intellectualization means that this group is generally white-collar workers, national cadres, and administrative staff. They are more convenient and curious to access and use modern media. Therefore, they are not only easy to accept and believe the spread of abnormal phenomena, but also easy to become accomplices or direct communicators if they do not argue between right and wrong.
In terms of research on supernatural phenomena, western scholars represented by the United States tend to use scientific methods, ideas and spirit to reasonably doubt these abnormal phenomena, and conduct scientific investigation and research on the basis of doubt. This research is unbiased and rational. At the same time, the true results of the investigation and research should be disseminated to the public, exposing the false images and deception with various purposes, and educating the public with facts to avoid losses. With the deepening of research, this kind of investigation and disclosure work increasingly involves the spiritual and emotional aspects of human beings, such as belief and religion.
If this kind of rational investigation and research involving the spiritual field is still limited to some traditional scientific methods, it is difficult to persuade the public; In this way, relevant institutions no longer limit their research to the speculative field of philosophy, nor to the traditional field of statistics and logical analysis, but increasingly expand to some disciplines and methods crossed by natural science and social science, such as psychology Psychopsychology , metapsychology, etc., using the knowledge, principles and methods of these disciplines to reveal some vague understanding in the field of people's beliefs. Guide the public to treat some unknown and supernatural phenomena correctly, so as not to be deceived or fall into the mire of superstition.
In China, the Communist Party is an atheist, does not believe in superstition, and mostly adopts a tolerant and open attitude towards some abnormal phenomena, allowing existence and exploration, but rarely arguing. Since the state and the ruling party adhere to atheism, they mostly adopt a critical and resistant attitude and approach to these phenomena. In terms of theory or research, they also mostly adopt a single dialectic to analyze and criticize. Therefore, there is a problem of single theory and simple method in research and disclosure, which has affected the promotion and dissemination of scientific spirit and rational thought to a certain extent. Due to the lack of persuasion, there is no fundamental solution to the doubts among the public.
Historically, China has accumulated thousands of years of traditional culture, and has rich experience in dealing with superstitions and abnormal phenomena. The West is the birthplace of modern science and technology, and it has advantages to treat these abnormal phenomena with scientific rationality and scientific thinking. Therefore, the East and the West, through academic exchanges, learn from each other to complement each other, and promote the spread of scientific thinking and scientific rationality, It is of great theoretical and practical significance to reveal the mysterious and unknown phenomena in the world today.

Folklore

Touching stone into gold

In ancient mythology, there were immortals who turned stones into gold and silver. A legend used to hoodwink those greedy villains. In the West, there are also interesting stories about burying sunshine in the ground, saying a few incantations and harvesting gold; There are also stories of alchemists cheating people of money.

the art of making oneself invisible

This is a strange magic that can make people disappear without trace. It includes three parts: invisibility, separation and transfer. Invisibility is to make others invisible and conceal themselves. In the myth, the prince can hide himself from others by wearing a cloak of invisibility or practicing invisibility, but invisibility always leaves traces of spiders and horses. Of course, it is better not to have invisibility in the world, so as to prevent some malevolent people from peeping into other people's privacy. The technique of separation is more magical.

In order to realize his prediction, he had to jump off a building and commit suicide.

It is said that in ancient times, some ghosts used the method of dream to wash their grievances; Superstitious people believe that the deceased relatives will tell you in their dreams if they have any unfinished wishes.

Reincarnation

This kind of research can be divided into two types. One is to study the possibility of reincarnation and related phenomena by collecting and verifying the cases of children with recurrent memory, represented by Dr. IANSTEVESON. STEVESON is a chair professor of VIRGINIA University. He has spent 40 years collecting 2600 cases of children aged 2 to 7. Although these children are very young, they know the specific situation of villages and towns thousands of miles away and the details of events that happened more than ten years ago or even more. Many children can even speak the language of other races. Many details of these cases were carefully verified by Professor STEVESON's research team. Some of these cases are collected in his book Children with Past Life Memory: On Reincarnation.
Professor STEVESON also collected 200 cases about birthmarks. In these cases, those children said that they died in previous lives when bullets or sharp weapons pierced the corresponding parts of birthmarks. In 17 such cases, Professor STEVESON obtained relevant autopsy reports and other medical records, which confirmed that the death process of relevant persons was exactly as described by children. These cases are recorded in Professor STEVESON's other book, "Intersection of Reincarnation and Biology".

Northeast Telegraph

Beijing UFO Research Association Professor Sun Shili, chairman of the board of directors, said that the so-called "third kind of contact" refers to the close contact with UFOs, which has a certain impact on human physiology or psychology, such as burns, abnormal reactions, etc. When talking about the event of Fenghuangshan Forest Farm, we have to mention the "party" and Meng Zhaoguo, a staff member of Fenghuangshan Forest Farm.
At the end of May 1994, in the Fenghuang Mountain Forest Farm in Wuchang County, Heilongjiang Province, according to the local mountain people, there was an unknown object staying on the south slope of Fenghuang Mountain, and someone saw it flying nearby.
On June 6, 1994, Meng Zhaoguo came into contact with the unknown object for the first time. On the same day, he and a relative climbed the hillside to "explore" the unknown object, and a series of strange phenomena occurred. When he was about 100 meters away from the unknown object, Meng Zhaoguo saw that it was a huge, white, tadpole shaped object, about 150 meters long. When they were ready to approach, the "giant tadpole" made a piercing scream. At this time, Meng Zhaoguo felt that there was an uncomfortable reaction on his body. The place with the metal buckle on his belt and the arm and wrist that often held a sickle began to numb. The screams of unknown objects made it impossible for the two people to approach.
Meng Zhaoguo reacted abnormally to the second contact with "unknown objects".
Meng Zhaoguo reported this strange experience to the forest farm immediately after returning from the mountain. On June 9, 1994, more than 30 people including the chairman of the trade union went to Phoenix Mountain to check. When they were about 100 meters away from the location of the unknown object that day, they took out their telescopes to check, but they didn't see anything. Meng Zhaoguo took the telescope. It is said that after he took it over, he saw the white unknown object still there. "There is an alien standing in front of him". Meng Zhaoguo recalled that when he saw the "man" clearly, he took out something like a matchbox and put it in his palm, and shot a strong light from it to hit his eyebrows. He felt a shock all over his body, and then nothing was clear.
People around still insist that they didn't see anything at that time. They carried Meng Zhaoguo to a shed not far away. Because he kept twitching, people had to hold him down. According to his later statement, when he saw an alien with big eyes, he cried out in fear, and no one else seemed to hear him. As a result, he suddenly stood on his head. The people present witnessed the handstand. It is said that the roof of the shed was broken because of their height. According to the diagnosis of the forest farm doctor, Meng Zhaoguo suffered an instantaneous deep high temperature burn at the center of his eyebrows.
Strange things happen in the process of recovery
China UFO Research Association Field investigation and evidence collection, and analysis of various factors to obtain scientific explanation. "We conducted a follow-up investigation on him." Professor Sun Shili said, "We investigated many local people, and at the same time we should not ignore the humanistic factors. We mainly investigated and tested the narrator Meng Zhaoguo to judge the authenticity of his narrative. According to people around us, Meng Zhaoguo is honest and upright, so we consider more humanistic factors." Shakespeare, a British writer, once expressed a series of heartfelt admiration for human beings through Hamlet's mouth in the famous play Hamlet. However, until today, we still know very little about our bodies, especially the brain space with infinite potential.
