not sure if other are seeing the same ads as I am on top of the site here but I just noticed on of the ads is for "quantum jumping" which im a little familiar with.
So for those who havnt heard of this thing, it is basically a scam that involves paying a couple hundred dollars to learn how to project yourself into alternate dimensions in order to learn new skill and information for...YOURSELF (albeit a alternate dimension version, perhaps with a mustache and goatee)
here are few quotes from their page
and here is a skeptical podcast that has a segment talking about it

Quote:
"Now imagine what you could accomplish if you could somehow tap into these alternate universes to meet and learn from these alternate versions of yourself. Imagine the wisdom youd learn. The opportunities youd recognize, the skills youd acquire, and the pitfalls youd know to avoid".
"By meeting these alternate selves, youd essentially be tapping into an endless universal sea of knowledge and experience. But how, might you be asking, does one access these alternate realities? Thats where Quantum Jumping comes in".
"The answer is that all physical matter is the result of particles vibrating at a certain frequency. A frequency that if you alter, change or amplify in any way, you change your physical and current reality".
"If Quantum Theory is correct, it implies that to change your current reality, all you need to do is change the frequency of your thoughts."

But all I needed was a bottle of cough syrup and some Pink Floyd albums.

Well, yes... actions are thoughts manifested, so we can change our realities by changing our thoughts. It's the Law of Attraction.
People don't need to pour money into this, they can just watch The Secret or any other Law of Attraction documentaries. Much cheaper.
If you need to visualize yourself receiving information from an alternate version of yourself in order to create a happier life, go for it

Cough syrup is whack. Cough syrup is cheap.* Invest in some good psychedelics.

Yes, I can change the reality of a peanut butter jar's location by changing my thoughts into wanting peanut butter, and thereby altering whether I do the action of getting the PB jar out of the fridge. This, however, is no law of attraction, it's just common sense.
Anything going radically beyond that, however -- such as getting rich by focusing your thoughts on the visual image of having a lot of money -- is nonsense.

I agree with you 100%!
My understanding of the Law of Attraction looks like this:
If you visualize yourself having something (for example, love, weight loss, an abundance of money), but you take no actions to work towards it, it will not happen. You need to visulize what it is you are asking for and then make sure your actions are mirroring what you expect to receive.
I remember watching the movie "The Secret" and being frustrated, because they show silly examples, like a little boy looking at a picture of a bike, and then the bike being given to him by his grandpa. (What they DON'T show is the kid asking for the bike, and working a bunch of chores to get it). They also show someone dreaming of money and then cheques showing up in the mail. Sorry - not how it works!! The key is to hold your vision and work towards it.
And like I said, if people need to visualize themselves "quantum jumping" into a parallel universe in order to gain information (or, more likely, manifest an inspired thought), then good for them. Too bad they are spending money to do it.

Wouldn't I logically just not exist in most mirror Universes?
I mean, look at all the biological variation that can happen from generation to generation. I was competing with 250 million other sperm cells. So were both my parents, and theirs, all the way back to Abiogenesis.

I agree, but I think in general it falls in line with "the power of positive thinking". Just that if you "train" yourself to constantly find the positive, or think about positive outcomes, you are more likely to be inclined toward achieving your (realistic) goals.
But yea, no sense in paying $$ for new age BS...
Happiness is not the result of a mathematical equation comparing the good times and bad times someone has had. It is a state of mind.

LOL. I don't think I'd want to meet alternate selves.
Yeah, I get the oddest contextual ads on this forum. Obviously either quantum jumping or chakras are radioactive, thus the ad for radiation protection.

^ Nobody wants to tackle that part of the equation?
I thought it was a really good point.
Imagine all universes start more or less the same - a huge assumption in and of itself. What are the odds the Milky Way Galaxy as we know it actually forms at all in most of them? What are the odds this specific solar system forms as it is? Or even close? What are the odds the Earth forms just the right distance from the Sun to support water? What are the odds that assuming water exists that organic molecules form into life? What are the odds that, assuming life forms, it evolves beyond a single celled stage? etc, etc, etc until Hominids, and even when your reach the Family of animals we're in, what are the odds Homo Sapiens specifically out of all the rich variety of early Hominids survives and flourishes? And if our species does... well, you have 200,000 years between the earliest modern Humans and any of us, so you have thousands of generations..no, tens of thousands of generations where the exact correct people have to meet, and the exact correct sperm has to fertilize the exact correct egg every single time.
Do you have any concept of how astronomically tiny the odds are any of us actually exist at all in even one Universe? It truly boggles the mind. The number of Universes would have to be infinite in every conceivable definition of the word for there to be even two of me. I don't think the human brain evolved to fully grasp a concept like that.... not just infinity itself but an infinity of infinities. Like...every 23 millionth of a second, time possibly splits into two completely different paths. How many times could some of us died already in our lives? It's like a tree that continues to split into smaller and smaller branches and never stops, ever. This is why I have migraines sometimes. THE VOICES WON'T SHUT UP, EVER.

I think that if anything, it's even more complex than this. Some people claim that every time a choice is made, an alternate universe is created to house the other choice. I think it works like this, except with every conceivable physically possible thing in existence happening at exactly the same time in different universes. Down to the very atoms of everything. Every atom.
This is of course why time travel could be used to change the future/past/present, because one could simply travel along the temporal fractal that houses their preferred outcome.
But this is just my idea, and I sincerely doubt we'll ever find out if it's right or wrong or not. All the same, I certainly wouldn't attempt to market it as some kind of New Age therapy.

Actually I saw it as a non-issue if you actually accpet their version of other universes. If there really is a different universe for every conceivable combination of not just atoms but there the quantum state of subatomic particles then there will indeed be many universes that you will not exist in, but the sheer number of universes in total means that you will still have millions or more alternative selves to talk to.

It's an interesting point, but I'd say it's speculation. Mirror universes are the stuff of sci-fi, not science.
Not that it's bad to speculation, just that I have no starting point other than a multitude of assumptions, many without any foundation.

If the universe is infinite, with infinite actions and possibilities, and there are alternate 'mirror universes' which somehow hinge on these infinite possibilities, it seems to stand to reason that there would be an infinite number of you. There would also be an infinite number of universes where you did not exist.
I believe everything.
