Introduction
In Wikipedia a miracle is defined (from the Latin "miraculum", a wonderful thing) as an extraordinary event, above the natural laws, which is considered to be operated directly by God or through one of his creatures. A miracle is defined as an extraordinary event that takes place outside the laws of nature or in which natural laws appear suspended, by supernatural or divine intervention. In common parlance, it is often seen as an inexplicable or believed to be an impossible but positive event.
Miracles (from the Latin mirari, "to look with amazement") are present in almost all religions, but especially in Christianity which bases the Gospel message on the essence of the supernatural.
Many miracles performed by Jesus Christ are mentioned in the New Testament, such as the multiplication of the bread loaves and fishes or the healing of the sick, but the most important miracle is his own resurrection.
In Judaism, a miracle is a sign of God's omnipotence and of his benevolence towards the chosen people, particularly frequent in the days of the exodus from Egypt.
In Islam, miracles are considered signs of God's omnipotence.
Numerous events considered miraculous are recorded in the Old Testament. Two of these in particular, the exodus from Egypt and the division of the waters of the Red Sea, have become symbols of all the liberations that took place by divine work in history, and the theme of a large Jewish literature.
In the Gospels, miracles are signs of the mission of Christ, which will then be continued by the apostles and disciples.
The doctrine of the Church recognizes the miracle in the broader context of the history of salvation as a call for men.
Hinduism1 classifies miracles and gives examples of them in its mythology and in the lives of hundreds of saints. A Siddhar is one who has siddhis, supernatural powers. These powers can be innate or achieved through austerity and mystical practices (sadhana). Despite the heavenly nature of siddhis, they are considered very dangerous for spiritual aspirants, given the extreme ease with which the development of these powers can lead to a growth of the ego, pride and vanity, qualities that hinder the path of the aspirant towards the ultimate goal of self-realization, enlightenment, Nirvana or Samadhi. The supreme siddhi (parasiddhi), superior to all others, is the realization of the Self.
Rationalist philosophers2, especially David Hume, decidedly attacked the very concept of miracle. Indeed, Hume stated that a miracle would be a violation of ordinary natural laws and therefore impossible. However, it is possible that an event could be considered miraculous because man at that moment did not have a full and exhaustive knowledge of the laws of nature that regulate it. In fact, therefore, to appeal to a miracle would simply be an admission of ignorance. As Spinoza already indicated that the reference to the divine will was nothing more than an excuse for the limits of our knowledge. The point of view of contemporary science, which cannot speak of a miracle, but simply a fact, for which the laws that allow it to happen are not known yet. Science in any case rejects the possibility of a supernatural intervention and therefore the concept itself of miracle.
Since science demands and pursues a full and exhaustive knowledge of reality, it cannot admit external intervention, outside of nature.
The problem of a miracle, of divine intervention, therefore, poses the same problems as free will and the mind-body (or mind-brain) problem, specifically how non-material causality is possible.
In this book you will find some events considered supernatural which have been further investigated by asking questions to Ishvara.

The mind deceives us3
The scientist works as a detective, makes assumptions and then draws conclusions, as Italian psychologist Massimio Polidoro explained. But there is a whole series of mysteries that science, on the other hand, does not face.
The brain, that is an extraordinary machine, deceives us every now and then by showing us only what is in our imagination. The classic case is that of the shapes of clouds or spots on a wall. This phenomenon is called Pareidolia. “It is that mechanism that leads us to recognize faces or faces on some images. An American lady saw a face on a burned toast slice, she thought it was Our Lady, she put it on ebay collecting 20 thousand dollars. In short, a prodigy can be built on nothing”.
Very often we believe what we want to believe. “We find ourselves talking to like-minded people who strengthen our beliefs. Denying hoaxes, removing illusions, for example, that a cure is a scam for many is unacceptable. But if we want to evolve, we must know, and knowledge brings uncertainties. "
For sure the more we know, the more questions we ask ourselves. Science, concludes Polidoro, is a method of knowing reality. Einstein said: "All our science in comparison with reality is primitive and childish, but it is the most precious thing we have".
The mind makes a lot of jokes. We often project images that are not really real.
We happened to find ourselves in a group of people, both composed of scientists and spiritual seekers, with whom we met to meditate. We were convinced that we had seen a "particular" light on a mountain and that, after going to check, unfortunately we found that it was just a lamppost!
What exactly happens in such a situation?
*Ishvara*: This is collective conscious autosuggestion.
What is a collective conscious autosuggestion?
*Ishvara*: A sensory vision perceived by several people.
How is it possible that such brilliant minds have been deceived by a collective conscious autosuggestion?
*Ishvara*: Illusions deceive even the brightest minds.
How can we protect ourselves from illusions?
*Ishvara*: Discarding what is not real.
Is there always something we miss? Can we not completely distinguish true from false?
*Ishvara*: Start looking for truth somewhere.
There is a lot of information about miracles but understanding which ones are true is very difficult. This can also be counterproductive because this jungle means that when we are faced with authentic supernatural phenomena, we miss or not believe them. It seems almost impossible to transmit extraordinary events as ordinary.
*Ishvara*: The repeatability of an event does not make it more miraculous.
If a miracle occurs again, is the interest of the event lost?
*Ishvara*: This is the reaction of a common mind.
Are there any miraculous events that repeat themselves and that always manage to involve people? For instance, spontaneous healings or visions of Mother Mary?
*Ishvara*: The “always” is out of place.
Are people always looking for new stimuli?
*Ishvara*: Yes, like children.

The magnetic hills4
A strange phenomenon arouses curiosity in mystery fans. We refer to the so-called magnetic hills. These are those places that give the feeling that gravity is absent or strongly altered compared to normal. In these areas, for example, a car left in neutral on an uphill road, instead of going down as it would be logical continues to go upwards as attracted by a mysterious magnetic force. In the past, various theories have been formulated about this phenomenon. For example, there have been those who spoke of a phantom alteration of the gravitational field.
Is this phenomenon connected to spirits? Does the gravitational field have anything to do with it? Or is it simply an optical illusion?
*Ishvara*: It is a variation of the gravitational field.
What happens when there is a change in the gravitational field?
*Ishvara*: All living systems undergo a variation of different scope.
What influence do these phenomena have on Earth or the Multiverse?
*Ishvara*: They affect every single subatomic cell.
What would this mean for human beings?
*Ishvara*: Changes of all kinds.
What types of changes could happen?
*Ishvara*: Natural catastrophes of all kinds.
Was this phenomenon manipulated by humans or is it something that happens naturally?
*Ishvara*: All naturally.
Could it also have a naturalistic catastrophic influence such as storms, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes or tsunamis, etc. ...?
*Ishvara*: It could be a trigger.
Could being in such a place also have a negative influence on one's health?
*Ishvara*: It will depend on each individual.
What type of individuals are at risk?
*Ishvara*: Those with serious health problems.
