Supernatural: Encyclopedia II - Supernatural - Views on the supernatural

Supernatural - The supernatural as distinct from nature. In this, the most common view, the term supernatural is contrasted with the term natural, which presumes that some events occur according to natural laws, and others do not, because they are caused by forces external to nature. In essence, the world is seen as operating according to natural law "normally," until a force external to nature (such as God) intervenes. Some believe strongly in the forces beyond the natural realm; but others have a strong belief in the powers of nature and only nature. Supern ...

Supernatural: f I Had Supernatural Power

Buddhist Quotes: f I Had Supernatural Power

If I had supernatural power, I could take you up to the Pure Land of Amitabha Buddha for a visit, or to the Kingdom of God if you are a Christian. I am sure that everything would be nice and clean there, with beautiful scenery. But once you were there, how would your footsteps be? Can you be sure that your footprints on the Pure Land would not show traces of worries and sorrows you carried from this samsaric, worldly life?

If you take your worries and sorrows along with you and set them on the Pure Land, you would defile the Pure Land and make it much less pure! To deserve the Pure Land, you must be able to take peaceful and anxiety-free steps right here on this samsaric ground.

Supernatural: Encyclopedia II - Buffyverse - Supernatural

In many ways this world is not dissimilar to ours. However in the Buffyverse, elements of the supernatural are found throughout the world, though only a small proportion of the population are aware of this. Interestingly although many unique aspects of the Buffyverse are introduced as ‘good’ or ‘evil’ and are usually treated as such, both ‘good’ and ‘bad’ are always eventually forced into more ambiguous ‘grey areas’. A few of the main aspects of the Buffyverse follow: See also:

Supernatural: Before Life Communication

Pregnancy and childbirth open powerful doorways for spiritual experiences. It was when I was pregnant with my first child, Nick, that my conscious psychic awareness sprang to life. I had many unusual supernatural experiences at this time. One that didn't seem all that extraordinary at the time but later proved profound involved communication with the spirit of my unborn son.

Supernatural: Are You Sure You've Never Seen a Ghost?

Many people have seen or interacted with ghosts or non-physical beings without ever even being aware that this was what was happening. Supernatural experiences don't necessarily come with big neon signs on them; they're best recognized by the telltale feeling that something unusual or important is happening. We often shrug off those experiences that are strange and unexplainable, even really astounding ones, because most of us just don't have a model for incorporating anomalous experiences into our belief systems. What is magical to some is seen as merely coincidental to others.

Supernatural: Encyclopedia II - Supernatural - Arguments in favor of a supernatural reality

Following are some common arguments in support of belief in supernatural phenomena. Many believers note that the complexities and mysteries of the universe cannot yet be explained by naturalistic explanations alone and argue that it is equally reasonable to presume that a Person or Persons controls the unexplained as to presume that no Person does, because neither explanation is verifiable or falsifiable until all phenomena have been explained. Believers note that it is unlikely that all phenomena will be explained soon. Believe ...
