- Note from TED: We've flagged this talk, which was filmed at an independent TEDx event, because it falls outside TED's curatorial guidelines, by virtue of its questionable use of scientific language. For example, its use of quantum physics to make claims about psychic phenomena would not be accepted by most scientists. The guidelines we give our TEDx organizers are described in more detail here:

Science states that humans have evolved over thousands of years. So have we reached the pinnacle of our abilities and our mind's potential? Do Quantum Physics and consciousness hold the key to our evolution? Pam Oslie will explore the answers to these questions and will reveal how electro-magnetic fields, non-local mind, and parallel universes play key roles in our development.
About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized. (Subject to certain rules and regulations.)
This makes so much sense! I know 2 close family members who were able to look inside me when I had something wrong with my body but hadn’t gotten exploratory surgery yet and they knew where it was and what it was and what it looked like so I was able to let my doctor know what type I needed and where to go and they found the problem and fixed it ❤
She's amazing. She pinpoints the fact that we squander our natural abilities and helps people understand our potential. Just because you can't do it doesn't mean others can't. When we break out of all out conditioning and elevate to higher states of consciousness, the things she talks about become normal. Not everyone will understand, nor believe because we have been stuck for so long at a lower level of consciousness. Just like many many before who have been trailblazers for human thought and abilities, they tend to get shut down. It's hard to "prove" because you can't see of feel it due to lack of awareness of these higher states. Other people are born with direct access to these states and abilities and they are the ones trying to share their gifts to help the greater whole.
I not only fervently studying quantum physics but also do my best to apply this new information to my life. I tend to push the boundaries because I believe there are many things we don’t know yet - and that we are capable of being much more than we’ve been taught. And I’ve proven these possibilities and abilities to myself as well as to many others.
Pamala helped me so much growing up when I was struggling with understanding auras and energy. Back then (2009), some people still wrote long emails and I happened to catch her a week she wasn't busy. She helped me understand my friends, relationships and why the aspect of the aura I saw looked different.
I also encourage people to trust what they sense is possible - not just blindly accept what others are telling them is possible or not possible.
I subscribed to Einstein’s belief that “Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds. The mediocre mind is incapable of understanding the man who refuses to bow blindly to conventional prejudices and chooses instead to express his opinions courageously and honestly.”
Pam
Did you ever explain how creation is constant? Each time a quark bursts forth spinning billions of times a second as 3 points of light forming protons and neutrons is proof of constant creation.
It’s challenging to share everything I know and have experienced in an 18-minute lecture. So in this TEDx talk I quickly covered just a few highlights and explained them in simple terms so that more people could understand them. Most people don’t understand and therefore are not interested in quantum physics because the language used is confusing and complex.
Let's get it on! This is my favorite TED talk. Time for humanity to grow up.
Awesome ❤❤❤
"If quantum mechanics hasn't profoundly shocked you, you haven't understood it yet." - Niels Bohr
Thanks Pam for being willing to be out front with what some of us have experienced, but not to the extent that you have. When I first saw a huge violet aura around Steven Halpern after listening to him play the piano in Boulder in the early 80ies, I went home and started asking my three children..... they all could see aura as well. My oldest daughter became a "Born again Christian" and considered it "Black Magic." How sad......... Pam, You are a pioneer and I thank you !
I love hearing intelligent people articulating their points of view. I wish I had the ability to keep up with everything she is suggesting to grasp the concept completely but it was inspiring and worth delving into further. Imagination is running wild !
Great talk! limiting beliefs are like a cancer - time to expand and venture out into new possibilities. Who care what science can prove - science has always been so far behind the reality of how things work. Throughout history some scientific beliefs have been so ridiculous and so crude and in time have turned out to be completely false. Answers can be easily found in the collective consciousness - which everyone can tap into!
Just found you via Stewart Pearce interview. Oh my giddy aunt thankyou!
I can't do half what you can however I am really creating my reality now; having done some upgrading, so assume the rest will evolve.
I've aways known this stuff.
I had a reading with Pam about 15 years ago that was rather unnerving as it didn't fit at all with my life at that time on the west coast. She was able to see that I'd (probably, as in "free will") be living in the Caribbean, vacationing on the east coast and serving in the Peace Corps, all of which I did within a few years of the session. I certainly didn't do any of that because she'd read my fortune and told me to do so.
Definitions:
"Quantum physics - the branch of physics based on quantum theory - the science of matter & energy & their interactions"
"Quantum mechanics - the branch of quantum physics that accounts for matter at the atomic level; an extension of statistical mechanics based on quantum theory"
"Quantum field theory - the branch of quantum physics that is concerned with the theory of fields; it was motivated by the question of how an atom radiates light as its electrons jump from excited states"
I really enjoyed the talk, the topic and the delivery. In a short time, Pam did an awesome job bridging human and spiritual concepts through a great explanation of Quantum Physics. Thank goodness we are all different with different points of view, and I vote a big YES on this talk. What The Bleep Do We Know...Down The Rabbit Hole is worth another watch! Thanks Pam!!
Thank you Pam Oslie, you are a visionary and leader for us all!
Some perceive psychics as delusional, new age kooks, or charlatans who deceive weak-minded people. While some can fit that stereotype, not all those with intuitive or psychic abilities are that way. (People with "issues" exist in every profession.)
My definition of a psychic is one who has developed expanded consciousness, who is actualizing the natural abilities inherent in all of us. I'm only one of many who is authentically experiencing & proving these advanced abilities are real.
My, there are so many sleeping beauties on this thread! If you never believe, you never receive! Time to wake up folks.
Pam, great to see you on TEDx! I always love hearing you talk about quantum physics. My blue/yellow/violet aura loves it, too!! Thank you!
Wonderful job, Pam! Keep it up. I am behind you all the way.
I'm glad to see this in a TED talk.
Great talk Pam! Thank you for sharing your authentic self & gifts with the world!! I've experienced several sessions with Pam over the last several years and I respect her immensely!
I don't know about you, but to me the idea of parallel dimensions is very expansive and offers hope for all sorts of "scientific discoveries" such as cures, free energy sources, longer and healthier lives...
Wouldn't you enjoy a life where you could be more expansive and open to new and unusual ideas?
If you want to learn more about remote viewing look up Ingo Swan or major Ed Dames. We are energy beings. Everything in existence is energy. If you open your mind and forget everything you think you know. You will make space for new information to flow to you.
Thank you for sharing Brynn, reminds me to tune in.
Thanks Pam! Great boost for the new year!! xx
Excellent, Pam!
Great job, Pam! So fun to see you on TEDx.
I will begin by saying that to become as knowledgeable as I can about a subject, I study, learn, ask questions, and then experiment with the information to see if it’s true for me. I study some of the most cutting-edge thinkers to see what they know. I will post the names of some of the physicists whose material I have researched and studied. So if anyone is interested in learning more, they can research these same physicists’ work. Obviously there would be too much information to discuss here.
Scientists evolve their understanding of “reality” all the time. They used to believe the earth was flat and that it was the center of the universe. They even had scientific “proof” that the earth wasn’t moving - they dropped an object from a tall tower and then measured it on the ground, declaring that it was the same distance from the tower as it was when it was dropped so therefore the earth was not moving.
How come you don't explain about how all those billion dollar colliders built around the earth never find solidity?
@@hummingbirdbumblebee4618 Because they only gave me 18 minutes to cover everything I know, which of course, wasn't really possible. I'm glad you know about those things though.
Thank you Brynn for sharing. This was amazing and inspiring

Psychically I can see you don't know how to spell psychic
Thanks Pam I really enjoyed hearing you on Ted Talks this week! Thanks for simplifying Quantum physics for us! When and where will you be next! Sent this u tube to friends and family! Check it out if you have not seen! Great job Pam! Yellow violet here!
I don’t know if I agree with all of this… but a lot definitely checks out :) so cool
Great job Pam!
Pam I love how much material you were able to cover in such a short period of time. I wish you were more local so I could go to see you speak :). I love listening to you speak on so many different topics, I think, because you have so much information behind you and yet you have taken it and run with it and done so many creative things with it. I love that you use so many gifts to help others too - you're a very inspiring person.
Many things were true long before science proved them. So I have also learned to trust & depend on my own inner intuition, knowledge and experiences too - even more than I trust the “experts.” I’ve learned that even the scientific experts can get it wrong. Scientific “facts” seem to change time & time again. Scientists also usually argue & disagree with each other - so who knows who is really right. I always encourage people to question, to learn, & to observe their own feelings & inner sense.
I'd appreciate you reaching out to me. It's hard to understand but I'm really intrigued
How do I get in contact with you?
From my personal beliefs we started out as intelligences and then became spirits and now we’re in this new space where we’re used to being spirits and all that entails and so much we can’t remember but now we’re combined with a body learning to be what’s now called a soul and that can be tricky
Good Job Pam!
Some people have negative comments about Pam's knowledge of science, however,they are all based on their own personal non-scientific emotions. Not one had a specific example of Pam being mistaken. Just noticing how their fear of the unknown turns otherwise decent people into schmucks.
3:00 She says we're still clinging to an obsolete beliey sys. (classical physics). 1., We would not have lasers, MRIs, and ipods, without quantum mechanics. 2., Quantum mechanics does not exactly supplant classical physics. C. Physics still holds true for our size/speed (space/time). So intuitively C. Physics makes sense, and Q. Physics does not seem to make sense--since we do not live at the quantum level. Pam says that "what's true for quanta must be true for us." That's false.
Can I jump to a parrallel universe where my dog is still alive.
Yes - but you'd have to really believe that is possible. Check out what physicist David Deutsch says about how we can die in one parallel universe but still be alive in many others. (So sorry you lost your beloved dog. I know how hard that can be.)
I feel that she is trying to convince people .... it’s such an important message all based on science
excellent talk. people may question how much science she is actually using to back what she says but i enjoy reading about science, physics and math and this is pretty much what modern science is saying about reality.
some people may think a deeper understanding of how quantum physics translates into reality may show these strange possibilties such as parallel universes and non-local consciousnous as false but i think a basic understanding of modern physics shows easily how they must be true.
Science is consensus. To say that something doesn't fit into "Mainstream science" is to say that it is not scientific.
Lol, what was SciFi, is now Science. It's not science till its understood, and accepted because it is commonly experienced. Quantum Physics dude, all matter at the lowest levels is energy, we would have laughed at that 10 years ago.
Really? When your belief prevents growth - it becomes a self condemned prison.
Why was this lady let speak under the name tedx?
She bribed ted curators...probably
@@mshyam1227 How much money would that take?
I am surprised that this is a sponsored TEDx talk. But, I suppose not all TED talks are about established science. My partner can also see auras and colors in people, so I can't dismiss what Pam describes. I am actually a bit green with envy of people with this ability. I can't relate, but I don't also don't want to dismiss this.
The title was deceiving. Not expecting a crack pot lecture.
the question in the title is like 'are you still lying?'it is a presumptious question!
With all due respect.. your awesome tell seeing colors. I know I'm wrong but I feel more comfortable in quantum. Good luck to ya
I'm surprised you made it to minute 7. Her readings of the attendees were astonishing (sarcasm): "I can see by your aura that you have a great sense of humor...and that you're a good friend...and I can see that you're very practical but at the same time there's a dreamer..." She lost me at the cliche, "This is a power we all have, I've just developed it more than you." Couldn't stomach watching more, but I'm sure she also said, "Studies show we use less than 10% of our brains." LOL
4:25 She tells us all what E=mc2 is. Everything is energy.
That's not precisely true. The equation tells us not that "things" are "energy."
It tells us that "things," multiplied by the speed of light, squared...are energy.
Pam changes Einstein's equation
Einstein's formula... E=mc2
Pam's Revision... E=m
What if I handed you a cup of lava or coal,
and tried to sell it for a $million.
You say, "A cup of coals is not worth anything."
Then, if I'd say, "But coal is diamonds."
Brains, you have no brains. I know from reading hundreds of books that absolutely everything everywhere is rotating and spinning and vibrating as energy. You must be a paid shill.
Last time I messed with this quantum mechanics stuff. I lost my cat. 😿
I'm trying to help you think, but you only hear negativity.
Please reply to specific arguments, so that we can arrive at the truth.
Her view of quantum mechanics is clearly taken from discredited sources, such as the cartoon What The Bleep Do We Know?, and not from textbooks on Quantum Mechanics.
1:00 She can see energy fields around ppl. This can be scientifically tested. Pam can make the rules of the test.
1:11 She claims an ability to "remote view." This can be scientifically tested.
Your long list of physicists did not include Barbara Brennan. She wrote the book Hands of Light and then built a college system teaching that creation is constant.
I say tedx knows nothing about the study of electricity OR quantum physics.
3:32 "Everything is made of 'energy' and there's no separation at all. There's no empty space between us." Pam then smiles as she says this. I believe she may be equivocating, using 2 different senses of the word, "energy."
3:45 "Consciousness is non-local." This is a philosophical concept long before Q Mechanics. Brain - local. Mind - non-local. Again, I think she heard a guy say something about Q Mechanics, threw in a few scientific buzz-words, then ran with it.
You had me up until "I see auras".... Although I'm not in 100% disbelief about that, I do have significant doubt.
ever heard of 'ignorance is bliss'? yeah i prefer it that way, im kinda scared and lost about these cos i dont understand unless someone have to explain to me all the way
I don’t think the universe thing exists but I believe we are connected spiritually and can reach out and connect still with consciousness :) so in the story of her husband she probably found a way to reach out and connect still :) but still there’s probably a different dimension aspect because the spirit world is in a different dimension :)
But we do have to be careful of our influence because we don’t want to mess with agency for others
After taking Ayuajuaska I saw energy
Programming and conditioning did a good job at fooling everyone huh? It’s like everyone is under a spell from the past. We will wake them all up.
3:55 "There's more than one reality." Then she justifies this "claim of Q Physics" by mentioning parallel universes. She might've misspoke, but if there are parallel universes (and I believe there probably are), then they are REAL.
What is real....is reality.
They are included in reality, by definition.
Ohh and water is indeed a liquid and a solid depending on the temp and pressure.
I'm sure this is probably possible. I just didn't get the "VIBE" from the woman talking. It's hard to take someone who talks like they are trying to con me out of something seriously. I liked her but not believable.
Someone has to have balls to stand up on a TED stage and affirm to see "auras"; especially when the topic of the speech is
" Are we still evolving"! Come on!!
It works. I have done it before myself and anyone can learn to. To those us that can or have it's no skin off our nose when you people that can't tell us how you can't...lol A lot of people do these things. It's not always easy and does not always work it's as much an art as a science. But all that matters is real results and we do it and get it more than we don't. But you can also go through times when it does not work when you fall back into old thinking like you have that says it's not possible. If you believe you can or can't you are right.
Extraordinary claims must be backed up by extraordinary evidence.
Except evolution isn't extraordinary. Its plainly demonstrable.
Hi...pam..great talk..yay...quantum physic... mmm..i dont know how is work but... i take more than few time taking your questionnaire on ya webpage...and i get yellow-crystal aura...i am surely yellow-green crystal quality...i always feel want to a own boss...i am doing selling avon cosmetics freelance while i still working with people in retails
Julian Epsilon, Do you know that there are no energy fields in space? Are you sure? Absolutely positive?
If Pam can bend a spoon with her mind, "and I would actually like to see that... without her touching it" It would prove that kenectic energy can pass through space. Actually we already know that energy passes through space.
Pam isn't the first to say everything is made of energy. Ever hear of E=MC2?
She can’t bend spoons with her mind. Illusionist and skeptic James Randi exposed and debunked that old trick years ago on the Johnny Carson Show when he appeared with famous con artist Uri Geller.
I’m really surprised that this lady was invited to a TEDx appearance. Pseudoscience is usually not an area that their event promotes.
Since when do we get our science from a fortune teller?
She repeatedly says, "Quantum physics says..." and then says something unrelated to quantum physics (similar to how preachers often say, "The Bible says..." then they just say something modern which isn't in the Bible).
So to be a guest on TED Talks, now all I have to do is claim to have superpowers, "I can travel thru other dimensions, I can see your auras, and I can eat walnuts using my 3rd row of teeth."
She is not a scientist.
Yes, of course. However, whenever Pam brought science to back her up, she was mistaken. It doesn't matter whether I would enjoy a possibility if that possibility is unscientific (in other words, untrue).
I "disliked" this video primarily because Pam mentioned science at all, when she has no authority (even if she had a miracle ability, that doesn't mean she's knows the truth of everything)
and displayed a wealth of ignorance to the research that has actually been conducted.
...and where is your TEDtalk?
Good point, if evolution were true, why are we actually suffering mutational breakdown?
Well, mutations are part of Evolution. Nowadays many people can pass their genes on, that would die before reproducing without modern technology.
Why go to another universe, why not change the beliefs instead? Hmmm....
Some Americans are devolving.
Lost me at “I can see your aura” FFS... yes, your eyes have evolved on a completely different tangent to the rest of humanity 🤦♂️
Burkeys randoms And that’s only one part of the truth of all the facts she has just given us about our “expanded consciousness”!
She said aura and I was done...
Oh you mean what science called an electromagnetic field? But they never revealed that EVERYTHING has them, not just Earth. Time for re-education. Let go of the programming and learn how reality REALLY works.
N Sedillo Ditto!
Share Your Abundance do we have such a field? Sure. Can we see it? That’s another question.
You should have kept watching, but only for the comedy value. She is not qualified for a Ted. Calling James Randi....
Way too deep!! Quantum physics + Occult sciences = Awesome beings we are, and yet we do not know it... :)
You mixed special relativity and quantum mechanics. You don't have an idea of energy and matter no mention dark energy - the hypothesized one.
I doubt where you got the 'confidence'.
Say what! 17:46 how would you know if you were. "Aura" Say what! Really TED, really! Come on
Why don't you tell her to claim Randi's million dollars?
Why doesn't she prove these abilities? Why doesn't she submit to a rigorous test of her energy fields: for example identifying whether or not a human is behind a box by seeing the aura.
She would actually change the world if she did that. Why doesn't she? My guess is because she knows she would fail. That's why she talks about quantum physics (a field I actually work in) with clearly zero understanding.
Or even better, be put in the middle of a pitch black room with a human sitting at one point - have her point to the human every single time (if she can see the aura)
Jesus Christ why isn't she finding survivors under the rubble post-earthquakes!?!?!?! Why isn't she known as the hero of Haiti???? She should have flown out there immediately!!!!
Idk,,, but I saw her in person a few years ago, and she was able to see my colors right away. That might mean nothing to u at first, but the thing is, she had never met me, and there are many colors, and they represent different types of personalities. About a week later I did her online questionnaire about auras (a lot of questions) and I got the exact colors she saw. She also knew a few other things that seemed rather impossible for her to know.
Why watching this when you have "Spirit Science", you know, all this wow science out there just waiting for you to wake up XXXXXXXXXDDDDDDDDDD I actually almost broke my neck because of the cringe.
She's cherry-picking interesting scientific facts and mixing/interpreting them as superstitious/illusory nonsense wishful beliefs. Parallel universes only existing in the human imagination! While we are part of infinite existence with infinite potentialities and possibilities, that does not necessarily validate many of the claims that she is stating here. Auras? Give me a break!
Quantum physics are still way too complex and way too miniature for todays science to properly analyze and study its compositions and its functions. Therefore, quantum physics is still only being considered as an assumption phase. Scientists still working on to invent miniaturized technological machineries (nano robots) to be able to properly get down into the quantum level/field to begin analyze its real (non-theoretical) constituents. Until then, anyone who are claiming anything about quantum physics are only telling wishful tails!

WTF TED ? why would TED now let people talk about crap on their stage. and what they mean by "flagging" that talk ?
I cant believe this is on TED....violet...yeah right I very much doubt Leonard SUsskind wants to do anything with you
Yikes.
So whats the aura colourof my cat
what the actual fuck XD
Jesus Christ is our own imagination
We never evolved in the first place. We were created by God, in His image.

She has no clue. Evolution requires a population bottleneck. End of discussion.
Crazy lady
What a great nonsense...!
Anyone that calls quarks nonsense doesn't know quantum physics at all.
Oh Pamela. Read some textbooks
Click bait headline. Honest title is fortune teller lady butchers physics.
Random psuedo science talk
Gtgtgt
You know nothing about quantum physics.
