Hey Mark I've been wondering, since you can do amazing feats of telekinesis like levitate a coin or chair, how come you haven't claimed James Randi's $1 Million?

I'm not Mark but I did apply for Randi's challenge but they just led me to a wild goose chase.

I've been told by others that it is a scam and others who worked their have said that its purpose is lost its meaning.

As for the goose chase, I have submitted my videos and was told to wait, then wait, then they told me that they do not have a representative in my country(they said beforehand that they have one for each country, I'm from the Philippines) and that my application was voided.

I applied for fun and excitement but after 2 months I was sent a message by one of their ex-employees stating that I am not the only one that have been turned down and told me to give up since they are not willing to accept anything without proper compensation like contracts to pay them at the very least around 30% of profit that the person will get(signing contracts with the media and stuff, this is depending on what contract and company you will be sold to)

It is a scam and fraud, here's some example: http://www.bolenreport.com/feature_articles/Doctor's-Data-v-Barrett/milliondollarsuit1.htm

Oh yeah, about the contracts, they will offer it to you if they can't debunk you.

I don't think it's a scam http://www.randi.org/site/index.php/component/content/article/37-static/254-jref-challenge-faq.html

I was always saying it's a scam as well, but it's actually legit. The reason most people don't participate in it is because a debunker or pseudo-skeptic would never change his/her view. Heck, you could give Randi a reading about his great grandmother that is amazingly accurate and he will ask you to do it again and again to look for the scientific mechanism of it. And most of us who practice knows that these abilities happens ones in a few tries. Not constantly. So that's the part they have wrong. They're not ready to observe the full mechanism at the first try. They require more and to let the participant do it over and over again. Which would surely get the person not to succeed. James Randi is an amazing debunker, I'll give you that. But not a skeptic.

So mostly, it would be a waste of anyone's time. You simply cannot proof these things to debunkers. They'll always find an explanation and deny what they see at all costs.

Wait IndigoTeen, how come we cannot perform abilities like Telekinesis or Aura reading constantly ?

Cause doesn't always work. It happens sometimes and sometimes it doesn't. Which is why some people may think they 'lost' their abilities.

how come we cannot perform abilities like Telekinesis or Aura reading constantly ?

We can perform it constantly(given enough practice) but as of now even for me I cannot do it for prolonged period of time, my latest record of being in the "zone"(a trance like state, I call it that) is 1 hour 10 - 15 mins, anymore than this gives me seizure attacks.

Also, people get nervous and different other pressure are given when demonstrating in public, especially if the person is socially shy or just naturally introverted.
