lol chances are extremely low of being able to do that. First you would have to know how to put yourself in a trance than be a "god" at telepathic suggestion. What ever plan you got in your head, unless you will devote years of your life to (yes years), then give up. If you want to do anything large scale with psionics or TK it will most likely take a lot of time and practice.

If you're not willing to devote years to anything, why learn psionics at all? I have yet to find any skill that doesn't take years to master.

Hmm...i succesfully used thelepathy suggestions... it is not that hard when you use it in little little actions. For more complicated actions, of course you need to practice alot, i cant do too much either, but i know it is possible. |

Haha! I didn't expect full mind control or so, it’s just that I've never heard about this kind of skill, so I maybe sounded a bit like an overjoyed little child or something. Sorry for that!  Anyway! How can you know if it was _you_ that controlled it if it's just about make them turn? It could just as well be the animal that decided to do that and isn't it ethically wrong to make creatures want to do stuff?  |

maybe not,  but everyone was born with a free will and... Hey! I'm not here for debating! Who made me want to do that?? I may be wrong, but I think that ethics is quite important when using psi, I mean we don’t want psions to get a bad reputation |

Theres no way to be completely sure, but Id imagine it was a process of experimentation. Results are only such if they can be repeated.
