influencing someones free will will make your karma go down. and let's just say that the punishment you'd get isn't nice
I doubt it. There is no morality in the Universe IMO, so there's no judgement. Doesn't matter if you're remotely influencing someone.

Can we prove the government is influencing us?
The most obvious question would be how they could do it...
Also, why? We are citizens and have the right to our own thoughts...
Finally, How could we find out the truth of whether they are or not....

Assuming that the brain operates on the principle of electricity, we are sending "invisible signals" all day, every day...much like a radio.
I don't think it's so farfetched to think that maybe it can be controlled...

I will toss in a repeated experiance I have.
Playing cards......Gin, or Gin Rummy, with people I play with over and over. When I need a certain card, I splash it very large in my mind and see it clearly. I put the idea with the card that they do not want it, kind of like it a yucky card for them to have. It always gets tossed to me sooner rather than later.Unless of course its buried in the deck and not in play. I am virtually unbeatable, seriously.
I have always thought my ability to get them to give me the cards I need was just this sort of a power.
To have it work for me, I have to be completely confident and KNOW my game very well. So when learning a new card game and I am not to sure of the rules, it does not work.
It is harder to do with a new apponant, than with a repeated apponant, but I always try....
..............................just sayin

I really do not see how a bunch of chemically firing cells can change EM radiation, heat, whatever, around you, but we do not know how.... We've figured out virtually every mechanism on the planet, you'd think we would know if we could influence energy directly...

Even if there was something coming from our minds, why hasnt any for over an entire century found it? Seems odd... we can detect neutrinos, the smallest, chargeless particle we know of, but not simple EM radiation from our brains..
A neutrino is some insanely small number smaller in mass than a proton.. 10^30 or something crazy, I dont know the number...
