This forum is primarily dedicated to higher quality posts and discussions. Those are welcome from everyone but will be filtered by the moderators. In order to foster more discussion, we have decided to start a weekly stickied discussion thread for the subreddit. This discussion thread is a place for people to post things that are more casual regarding subjective idealism, and things that are more exploratory. Here is a place for individuals to propose ideas and ask questions and figure out subjective idealism.

Have you tried experimenting to see if you can influence others in a unilateral sense?

A good safe example of this would be to heal someone's body without them knowing or wanting to be healed.

However, whatever you find out, who would you share it with? :)
