Yeah and they're still around today. Certain people after awakening one of their chakras develop psychic powers such as telekinesis, healing, mins reading etc.
The CIA and military have a team of trained psychics.
I don't know about chakras but that may come under "noetic science" there's some actual truth to it. Probably quite a lot of bullshit as well.
'Consciousness – The Unifying Force?
There are some physicists who, since the dawn of the quantum era, have posited that consciousness is what unifies the two realms of quantum and classical reality. For example, physicist Sir James Jeans said that because of the implications of quantum theory, the “universe begins to look more like a great thought than a great machine.” His statement still reverberates throughout physics because so much of quantum physics comes down to two primary questions: What ultimately connects everything in the universe? And what is it that causes quantum entities to behave differently under observation and experimentation? The answer to both questions appears to be consciousness.
As physicist John Wheeler has suggested, we may actually live in a “participatory” universe, where our consciousness influences reality.
Frontier science, such as: neurotheology, P.N.I, epigenetics and noetic science, is uncovering evidence that we have both a quantum and a physical nature. There are not two realities, the classical and the quantum. There is only one ‘unified’ whole. Ultimately, everything in our world is reducible to the quantum realm. Your body, the chair you are sitting on, the computer you are looking at, the wind blowing against the window – they are all made of atoms (light), and atoms are made of subatomic particles, and particles are probabilities, not solid things. And the ultimate ‘measuring’ or ‘detecting’ instrument is consciousness. This is why what we think and feel really matters and has consequences, not just within the confines of our bodies, but within the world.
Particles or Waves?
When is a particle not a particle? When it’s a wave. It’s called complementarity, and more specifically ‘wave-particle duality.’ A subatomic particle, such as an electron, is both wave and particle simultaneously at the deepest level of reality – the quantum realm.
In our everyday world, it can show up only as a particle or a wave and not both, and how it shows up is restricted by the kind of experiment that is being conducted to detect it. It’s strange, but true that if an experimenter is seeking to explore the wave properties of a quantum particle, say an electron, then the electron shows up displaying its wave nature. If the experiment is designed to explore particles, the electron shows up with all the properties and dynamics of a tiny solid thing – a particle. Somehow it’s as if subatomic entities ‘know’ what we are asking and so appear in our world in ways that best accommodate our questions. This is truly mind-boggling and may further underline the role of consciousness in these matters because the energy that the human presence brings to these experiments unquestionably ‘influences’ the outcome.
Einstein quite rightly said that the moment you are observing an experiment you are part of what is taking place and therefore you are influencing the way that the atoms and subatomic particles behave. Particle-wave duality is an aspect of the quantum world that has been tested again and again, and always proved to be correct (see: The seminal experiment in this area, which is called the double-slit experiment).
Two of the founding fathers of quantum mechanics, Neils Borh and Werner Heisenberg were amongst the first to point out that we can’t know everything there is to know about a quantum particle at once. There is a limit to our knowledge. For example, if you know how fast a particle is going (its velocity), you can’t tell with one hundred percent certainty where it is (its position). And vice versa, if you know precisely where it is, you can’t be sure how fast it is moving. By knowing a lot about one aspect of a particle, you sacrifice some knowledge about other aspects of it. This again is at odds with classical, Newtonian physics. Theoretically, in the classical world (our everyday world) Newtonian physics tells us that if we know all the initial conditions of a system, we can reveal everything there is to know about that system as it unfolds in time. The quantum reality paints a very different picture. This difference between our experience and calculation of things in the world of matter, versus what is happening at the quantum level, has been described as the ‘uncertainty principle’. In other words we can never be entirely sure of our position, or our speed because we cannot simultaneously appreciate and experience both.'
