This is the target i used for my telekinesis practicum. http://www.abcinfo.com/engwhlx.htm
you can also build one yourself if you are cheap. Just about everyone i exposed to this target was able to control it at a range of a few inches. my goal was a little more difficult than that as i'll explain later.
there are also other suitable macro PK targets such as floating particles in a cup or bowl of liquid, a light styrofoam ball tethered to swing from a fixed point. pieces of confetti a candle flame, etc.
as you get further along you might consider placing a barrier between the target and your breath, air displacement, heat and so on. i used a domed glass display cover with base purchased from hobby lobby to help rule out mundane explanations.
However at first don't do that because it is often productive to cheat as a beginner to illustrate what you desire to happen (to your symbolic speaking subconscious) when you are trying to move the target. after a few trials you should discontinue the "cheats" and actively seek to thwart mundane mechanisms that are not PK.
Keep a journal with complete record of date, time, conditions, emotional state and state ofrest and your physical fitness (are you ill?) detail your procedure including any mental imagery, attempts to channel esoteric energy and so on. limit practice time to a reasonable brief time and go on to something else. repeat the above. if necessary alter your procedures.
I used multiple procedures and types of visualization to reinforce my intent will and psyche myself up.
Eventually i was able to exert full control over the targets motion, direction of spin starting and stopping it at will (with approximately a .6 to 1.6 second delay) from across a 20 foot room in addition i was able to perturb the rotor out of it's plane of rotation from about 3 feet away.
I was unable to increase the output to useful levels of work from there although i gave up and lost interest before i could explore many means of augmenting my effort. i simultaeously was able to deflect a shielded candle flame and cause it to flare. eventually i might get around to exploring it further.
among my methods were manipulating esoteric energy points to open them to energy flow, the telekinesis kanji kuri of ninpo, the LBRP, the kabbalistic cross, the CBL, actually willfully hallucinating rotation, imagining the energy my "aura" reaching out a tendril and spiraling around the target like a miniature galaxy or a dark star syphonig material from a companion star, using ritual trappings of elemental fire and manifestation such as appropriate incense and so on. Heck, i even imitated the scene from starwars where Luke telekinetically summons his light saber. I'm not proud; i used as many methods of reinforcing my desire and will as i could manage simultaneously or sequentially.
And while it is possible that i have been fooled by some mundane mechanism i failed to control for i do not think so. i tried to eliminate any natural spoilers i could think of. i tried replication the effect with the heat of a candle, powerful light source photon pressure, static electricity from a rubbed balloon i even jumped up and down and played my stereo loud to try for harmonic resonance. i also obeserved for turning during times when i was not trying to move the rotor. the majority of the experiment was performed with the target in a glass display case which fitted into a circular groove in a hard wood wooden base to eliminate breath and other air currents. i guess the only thing i cannot rule out that i know of as a possible explanation is bournelli's theorem; which is a principle of aerodynamics related to the surface area of an airfoil and it's effect on air pressure and hence lift. i do not believe it could account for what I observed ( because the motion was not continuous, was reversible appeared to follow my willing it and so on.) but i cannot rule it out with complete certainty.
I'm sure even William of Ockham would forgive me for concluding based on the above that the most likely explanation left is telekinesis is real.
Ockham's razor has been formulated various ways over the centuries. one of them used by the famous fictional detective Sherlock Holmes is if you elliminate the impossible what is left no matter how unlikely is probably the answer. I think i have at least made a valiant effort to follow that maxim.
