I try and hold back from believing in things I haven't expirienced for myself. either done it myself, or seen it done (and had a chance to study the area afterwards for the sake of looking for tricks). Even then, I tend no to have faith in what I have seen or done, I just consider it "I guess I just saw something outside of normal nature. Maybe it was a coincidence. maybe not. odd"
That said, Energy *can* be moved around the body by consious thought. it's been proven as much as anything in science can be proven. Take a $.25 thermometer. Hold it between your thumb and forefinger while walking around, doing things (ie, keep your mind busy, doing light work). after 10 minutes, record the temp. now sit down, turn the TV on (again, keep your mind busy, doing no work). after 10 mins, record the temp. now turn off everything that you can, seperate yourself from distractions, sit up straight, touch your tounge to the roof of your mouth, breath through your nose. place your feet on the floor, hands palm down on your kees (keep the thermometer in your thumb/forefinger). now think about all the heat of your body flowing down your arms, filling your fingers. imagine them swelling with the heat. imaging flames begining to lick around the edges of your fingers. try and really *feel* the heat of the fire. think about what it feels like when you burn your finger on a hot pan, imagine that feeling. do this for ten minutes. take a temp reading. repeat this proccess for a few days. This is known as Biofeedback" therapy, and is widely accepted as an effective method of treating certain circulatory/arthritic conditions, such as raynaud's syndrome .
for learning meditation, I would recommend practicing Buddhist meditation techniques to begin, they are a very good starting point. for learning how to control energy motion within the body, I'd recommend both celtic-based wiccan "magik" meditation technniques (I avoided the "spell" area, and was still able to gain usefull knowledge for Wicca) and Kung-Fu 'Iron shirt' techniques in combination with either Ti Chi or BaGua internal Martial arts.
For moving energy around outside the body, I cannot speak. I've been working on it for about 15 years, and have not had much success.
However, just today, I think I may have figured out how to move a very light object using external energy motion. The pattern of movement I have created is certainly not natural, however, I will not say that I have succeded until I eliminate all other likely causes (intermitant draughts, uneven heat transfer from my body to the object, even differences in light hitting the surface of the object could be causing the motion that I induced. None of this options seem likely, given the testing environment, but they are always possible). If I can cause the motion to occur in the exact opposite direction than I did earlier, I think it will be pretty convinsing proof that *I* can consiously moving the object, and it is not being moved by other means.
I will post updates here, and possibly try to get video if I succeed (to at least help the skeptics. I know how hard it is to believe someone who is sure of something which seems impossibly stupid. All I can say is I don't think I'm an obsessed fanatic.)
