Altering The World, by sheer mind-power

It recently struck me that if we can create/destroy so easily on the astral plane then we should be able to do the same thing here, and with the same tools; your mind. I've been on a philosophy book binge lately and my elementary thought processes brought me to the conclusion that if life could simply be an illusion in our brains, if we view it as such then we can lucid dream in the real world. I put this in here because I wasn't sure what forum to put it in and I wanted to see if people thought it would be possible to make the world into a dream that you can alter at will. Opinions? -------------------- "Take root in the ground, live in harmony with the wind, plant your seeds in the Winter, and rejoice with the birds in the coming of Spring." - Hayao Miyazaki (Sheeta from the film - Laputa: Castle In The Sky) All murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets. - Voltaire Behind every successful man stands a surprised mother-in-law. - Voltaire I have never made but one prayer to God, a very short one: "O Lord make my enemies ridiculous." And God granted it. - Voltaire Illusion is the first of all pleasures. - Voltaire

Unregistered	Yes and no. İ personally feel that its incredibly vain and childish to think that as individuals we have any form of true influence or hegemony within the world. Rather we are merely catalysts for a reaction far far grander and older than most of what we could possibly perceive. That said this occurs on a day to day basis. A woman curses somebody who cuts her in lıne may cause the man to be late for work. As a result the man loses his job in five weeks do to a job cut. The man is incapable of supporting his family and the children take to for example drink. This is not special. The idea of somebody being more powerful is akin to the notion that an individual who is heavier than another is stronger than another. That said some people are able to get what they want better and eighty percent of the time they use what modern man calls tact. For me İ have grown to minimize the usage of constructs and other crowd control methods simply because its using a cannon to kill a dıllemna of a problem. Frankly İ feel that people should learn to cope with their lıves before actually attemptıng to blindly change variables that we are incapable of handlıng because of our mortal limıts.
