Pyrokinesis is defined in this course as the psychical influence of propelling charged particles to high speeds, and of energy flow in regards to heat. This course offers an in-depth look at Pyrokinetic influence and addresses what ideologies and misconceptions may currently be limiting practice. In addition, it addresses sub-types per limitation to identify the experients strengths and weaknesses to better identify the best course of application (practice). The course also touches on types of practical applications of use, methods of experimentation to record skill and chart enhancement, and addresses scientific measurement via devices and suggestions on technique. This course addresses popular misconceptions in regards to mechanical and dynamical limitations including the volume of the target (object or system) that can be influence, and fire control and movement; sub-form confusion, and psychosomatic symptoms in regards to thermoception. It addresses limitations of psychokinetic influence including heat conduction vs. radiation, vaporization vs. melting, flame vs. flameless combustion, and higher vs. lower temperatures.

:: More About This Course
Psi is an all-encompassing term for Psychokinesis (PK) and Extrasensory Perception (ESP) combined. This course addresses both classical and quantum mechanical modeling approaches to psi phenomena in general including those pertaining to the role of psi phenomena such as the psi-mediated instrumental response (PMIR) and relative need-serving qualities of psi, psychokinesis as a primary psi process, and psi as a product of evolution via Darwinian theory. This course addresses classical models including electromagnetic models, energy field models, and the zero-point field model, associations of psi phenomena with quantum theory, and new approaches to such phenomena via quantum mechanical modeling. in addition, this course addresses an elaboration on the essential role of quantum information theory in regards to psi phenomena, the view of computational living systems, the macroscopic challenge for quantum computation and psychical research, the quantum efficiency of psi, and the non-local communicative nature of psi. Addresses the part played by Nature in regards to the mediation of psi via a hypothesis addressing Nature as an experient accessible universal information processing and storage system with features of four dimensionalism. Addresses Geomagnetic entanglement, permanent and seemingly macroscopic entanglement, and quantum non-local communication in regards to psi. This course addressees the phenomenology of pyrokinesis (i.e. what experients claim to do and experience during performance [practice]) including altered states of consciousness, a sense of connection, dissociation, playfulness, energy, knowing openness, suspension of intellect, contribution of state or energy, focused awareness, release of effort or attention, altered sense of time, investment in the outcome, positive impact, guided processes, trust in the process, and an overlapping of ESP and PK. In addition, this course addresses commonly reported symptomatic effects in regards to experients of pyrokinesis including injuries (e.g. burns) caused by increased heat in the hands and feet, spontaneous heating and combustion of objects, and spontaneous self-thermoregulation. In addition, fire classification and safety in regards to fire and increased heat exposure. This course also suggests practical career applications in regards to pyrokinetic phenomena. (e.g. therapeutic, emergency, scientific, and philosophical), therapeutic applications such as thermo-therapeutic heat transfer, and experimental applications including indoor thermal influence, vaporization and boiling, fusion/melting, smoldering combustion, and flaming combustion with suggestions on measurement techniques and devices. In addition, this course addresses psychological profiling in parapsychology in regards to psychokinetic performance, and addresses increased reactivity to psychical stimuli due to anxiety, psychical and Myers-Briggs personality type correlations, and pyrokinesis associated personality types. Topics include MBTI associated information, colorization (type) profiling, and enhancement elements including detailed specifications. In addition, the placebo effect is addressed along with the benefits of colorization enhancement, and enhancement via socialization. Lastly, PsiMatics is addressed, which involves psychical enhancement via geometric patterns that can result in creating measurable electrical and magnetic fields, which may happen due to a process of amplification similar to the amplification associated with symbols utilized in several forms of alternative medical treatments.View Content
