This is nonsense. I know for certain that I have an ideal body, yet the span of my outstretched arms and my height differ by about 5%.
Leonardo was an idiot, or maybe the AI that posts this twattery.

Why do so many “woo-woo” practices seem to help, even when we know they are not literally magical? I’ve been thinking a lot lately about rituals, symbolism, neuroscience, and why humans seem wired to create meaning through routines, stories, and emotional connection.

CW: Mention of so called "AI"
It was like being in some sort of prosperity theology church or "manifesting" seminar. It was genuinely insane.
Oh, and they had a short talk from a homeopath beforehand.
It was cultish and bonkers.

Spoiler: It's completely NATURAL.
Sandstone just does that all on its own.
If you still have any weird-woowoo-von-Däniken-esque doubts about this then visit Orkney where you'll see this stuff ALL OVER PLACE, much of it no longer underwater so you can actually look at it up close and touch it.
It's just what rocks do.

This is likely the most influential interview (30m) that you will hear in your life.
Alex is a #physics and #neuroscientist professor.
As far from #woowoo as you can get...He rationally critiques the ossified #materialistic #science and offers an opportunity for humans to expand its myopic and destructive obsession with a very narrow perspectives if the hard problem of #consciousness
He touches on #AI and the toxic ideology of #broligarchy , #transhumanism

One day, in the dim distant future, when humans have finally grown up, there'll be a huge museum filled with examples of non-self-aware OCD architecture like staggered stairs, churches, temples, giant Buddhas, etc.

When the U.S. descends into full scale civil war (next week or whatever) and all its proper industries/businesses have to migrate to somewhere less idiotic, that would make a brilliant location for the new #Stargate series!#StargateSG1 #SG1

That link is to the 25th November 1977 edition of the (once) prestigious Horizon BBC scientific documentary series which brought much greater attention (in Britain) to von Däniken's 'ideas'.
Sadly, the version on archive.org has, rather irritatingly, been dubbed into American.#RIP #ErichVonDäniken

That's an interesting subset of what appears to both major and minor arcana.
I think I might wait to see if he gets around to doing the other 58 so that they're actually usable. LOL :-)

@cmconseils
The bullshitters perpetrating the nonsense ran out of ways to monetise it any further, what with all the actual facts about it being widely available.
cf. Loch Ness monster, ancient alien visitors, etc.
The same way fascism completely died out.
Oh, hang on a mo...

Funny how this kind of thing stops happening when there's actual stuff going on in the world.
