		<description>Hello,
I have just stumbled upon the TED video of Keith Barry, and it reminds me of others that I have seen.  

I am one that believes in the existence of vastly more than we are currently aware of or in contact with.  As such, I am deeply curious about whether or not such things as Mr. Barry demonstrates are events or skills outside our current understandings, or merely illusions.  

If anyone can point me in the direction of practicable information--that is, information that I can personally discover and put to use--I would appreciate it greatly.

		<description>He is awesome, but nothing he did was magic. 

All were tricks- commonly known tricks even. There is nothing preventing you or anyone else from doing any of these except knowing the trick and, in some cases, an amazing amount of practice. 

I don&#039;t want to spoil anything, but if you are really curious about how any of these tricks were done, you can find them revealed on the internet if you search hard enough.</description>

		<description>So I&#039;m awestruck at someone&#039;s deceptions? What deception would that be? I&#039;m not awestruck at all. Everything that happens to you in your life is because of your beliefs.  And that has alot to do with the karma you create.  Discreating beliefs is no big deal and it certainly isn&#039;t magical.  I think it&#039;s easier to do it for another than yourself, because you don&#039;t have to create all the charge the other person has created because of their problem.  Also, I believe that good magicians, like David Blaine, use entities to help them create their magic.
I think if you really want to learn Avatar correctly, it would be better to do with a master.  Of course, that might depend on how much they charge.</description>

		<description>Magicians&#039; acts depend on people like you, who are awestruck at their deceptions.
David Copperfield&#039;s deceptions sometimes involve &#039;lying&#039;.  That age old deception. 
He will say that &quot;There are no camera tricks&quot; - however, whilst there is no technical trickery like computer generated graphics, there are still tricks which involve the cameras and without which the trick could not be performed on a live stage.</description>

		<description>Cool!
I looked through some Google search results and found that there are Avatar masters that can teach you the course - you think that is a good way to go about it to learn it, or is it better to find that &#039;secret&#039; process somewhere and make it a DIY session?</description>

		<description>Avatar taught us to get rid of any limiting beliefs we didn&#039;t want by discreating them.  It&#039;a a quick process. You can do it for others, also. You basically decide you are the other person, put yourself in their place, and discreate the limiting belief that is causing their problem.  It&#039;s considered a secret process.
During the course, I had to do something to help another.  There was a girl at my work who had an adopted son and wanted to adopt another.  I told her I was doing a special course and I needed to find someone to help.  I told her I would try to make it so she could get pregnant.  The doctor had told her the chances were nil she could conceive, and that&#039;s why she was looking to adopt.
So one day I spent maybe 5 or ten minutes being her and discreating some beliefs she had about not being able to get pregnant. A couple weeks later I asked if she was pregnant yet, and, lo and behold, she said she had missed her period.  She WAS pregnant and had a son 9 months later.  When I talked to her about it she actually knew that what I had done had made her get pregnant;  of course, not the insemination part, ha ha!
It was a good win for me.  But it was quite easy to do since I had no charge on getting pregnant.  Anyway, I think the &#039;secret&#039;process is on the internet somewhere.</description>
