Regrowing limbs
Almost 3 decades ago I had a very interesting fellow working for one of my businesses.
Eric was a serious chap, but also very interesting to converse with.
Now, remember, this was almost 30 YEARS ago!
He spent hours telling me how important thoughts were. How thoughts could create things.
Basically explaining his view that the reality we are living in was a construct of our thoughts.
You might go...so what...this is a commonly discussed theory.
Believe me, if you go back 25-30 years to the thinking in the USA, this was NOT common at all...it was radical in the extreme. 
In our heated, yet friendly, debates I employed what is a useful tool in testing new thoughts...I put his radical theory that thoughts create physical reality to the test of a logical extreme.
I asked him if he had a finger cut off could he grow it back with his thoughts? Thinking I was just asking this hypothetically, he quickly answered yes! (Of course he had to or his previous statements did not stand the test of logic).
I told him I was willing to do it...cut his finger off...if he was absolutely sure he could grow it back.
He then proceeded to tell me that he believed it was possible, but he did not think he had the level of belief to accomplish this.
We had many, many hours of thought provoking discussion on such matter, but I never did cut his finger off. 
Eric...if you happen to run across this forum...please contact me!!!
Since that time I have come to understand the reality of many things that can not be readily ascertained with the 5 senses.
I also believe that thoughts can affect reality, and in SOME cases change reality. However, I have not seen anyone grow a limb back with their thoughts, yet. 
I believe it was Churchill that said "The empires of the future are the empires of the mind."
It is relatively safe to say, that at this point in time we have only scratched the surface of what is possible!
