esperelists

Esperelists are a fictional concept often found in speculative fiction or online communities. They refer to individuals who believe they possess or can develop the ability to manipulate reality through sheer willpower or focused intent. This concept is not supported by scientific evidence and is generally considered a pseudoscientific or fantastical notion.

The term "esperelist" is a portmanteau, likely combining "esper" from extrasensory perception and "elist" suggesting a practitioner or adherent. In fictional narratives, esperelists might be depicted as having a range of powers, from subtle influence to overt control over physical objects or events. These abilities are typically attributed to latent mental powers that are either innate or can be trained through rigorous mental discipline.

Within certain online subcultures, particularly those focused on self-improvement, manifestation, or arcane studies, the idea of esperelists may be discussed as a theoretical possibility or a goal to strive for. These discussions often involve practices like visualization, meditation, and affirmations, framed as methods for awakening or enhancing these purported abilities. However, these practices are generally understood within established psychological and philosophical frameworks as tools for mental focus and motivation, rather than literal reality manipulation. The concept remains firmly in the realm of imagination and personal belief systems.
