Do you wonder if your intentions, prayers or wishes have a real, calculable effect on the world? Here, riveting accounts of scientific investigations and real case histories, from the groundbreaking author of The Field, Lynne McTaggart, help to prove that we are all connected and our intentions can be harnessed as a collective force for good. Your thoughts and intentions have a tangible energy with an astonishing power to affect our world. They can be called upon to focus our lives, heal our illnesses, bring peace to communities and improve our planet. This book is for anyone who has ever dreamed of being in control of their life or yearned to make the world a better place. The Intention Experiment blends elements of quantum physics with stories of ordinary people with extraordinary experiences and tales of scientists from some of the most prestigious universities in the world researching into the areas of psychic phenomena and the power of human thought. The energy we give out in prayer or meditation can actually be measured as a surge of electrical voltage, that changes the molecular structure of the object of our intentions. Quantum theory suggests that reality isn't fixed, but fluid and open to influence, and that we are central to this entire process as influencers. Research has even demonstrated that human intention will have an effect, regardless of the point in time it is generated or its distance from the object of intention. Intention is ordered energy and coherent information and we are all connected, like one giant organism, one part affecting the others. It has been demonstrated that our thoughts can change the output of machines, calm down or help focus nervous people, heal remotely, transform our bodies, or affect the growth of plants. The larger the group, getting in tune, the greater the influence.
