Human beliefs are amazing and the debate as to whether the mind and brain are one thing or separate is still hotter than volcanic larva. Science cannot for certain tell us what the mind is and all across the continuum people of all sorts of knowledge still continue to scratch their heads to bald.

But the interest here is beliefs of the mind not the mind itself.
People believe that if they can convince their minds to concieve a possibility they can evetually do anything. Call it mind over matter, the metaphysics or the occult; it doesn't matter. What matters is the mind and beliefs of a person can do amazing things.

But here is the letdown, your beliefs cannot bend the rules of physics. For example: if you believe you can fly the mind may play tricks on you by fooling you into believing that you flew, when in real life you didn't really defy gravity. Newton showed that what goes up must come down. So there is no way in which you can believe to fly and actually do it. One illusory sensation is out of body experience.

And across the board if you believe you are lucky, your mind is just looking for confirmation bias events to biasly confirm your belief.

Thus far, beliefs are effective in the mind with limited effect in the real world e.g Placebo effect, Nocebo effect,etc. But how far will one go to believe that they can be cured from HIV by faith alone?
