Noted psychiatrist and author Colin A. Ross, M.D., did some experiments. He found out that our eyes can send out energy, and he wrote a paper about it called "The Electrophysiological Basis of Evil Eye Belief" and it is published in the current issue of Anthropology of Consciousness, a journal of the American Anthropological Association.
You know that feeling when you think someone's looking at you, and they really are? Well, science used to say that our eyes can't send out any energy. But Dr. Ross says his experiments show that our eyes can do it. He calls it "eyebeams," and it's not just a silly idea anymore.
Dr. Ross and his team used their special equipment, like a superhero gadget, to show that our eyes send out a special signal we can measure. Dr. Ross says, "Maybe we can figure out why our eye energy is so strong and how we can use it when we really focus."
Dr. Ross likes to study a special kind of science and medicine that's all about the energy in our bodies. He wrote a book about it in 2009 called "Human Energy Fields." He's also written a lot of other stuff, like 140 papers and 23 books.

We don't have complete and real scientific answers for sightings (Evil Eye) yet. We're not sure about the reasons and facts behind them. But Dr. Colin Ross might be one of the first people to show that what some call fiction could be real science. We need to learn more about this. It's not just about what one person believes; it's about finding the objective truth. Let's see who else is studying this idea and what they discover. This is just the beginning.

The Belief in the Evil Eye in Ancient Civilizations
Wedjat Eye Amulet, Egypt. ca. 1070–664 B.C. Met Museum
Long ago in a place called Sumer, they believed in something called the "evil eye," which they called "igi ḫul." This belief goes back to about 3000 B.C.E. People in different places, like Mesopotamia, Egypt, and Greece, also believed in the evil eye.
Shielding Yourself from the Evil Eye: Effective Methods
When you share your joyful moments, envy can come your way. On the other hand, when you share your sorrows, you might attract those who find happiness in your sadness. While it's not a simple path to follow, staying low-key can divert attention away from your life. Consider sharing less to avoid unnecessary trouble—it can be a wise choice.
Lessons from Prophet Joseph Story
And he said, “O my sons, do not enter from one gate but enter from different gates; and I cannot avail you against [the decree of] God at all. The decision is only for God; upon Him I have relied, and upon Him let those who would rely [indeed] rely.”
There is an important lesson to be learned from the story of Joseph. One significant instance occurred when the brothers were about to enter that specific palace to collect their food. Their father advised them, "Enter separately." One explanation found in the books is that this advice aimed to prevent others from noticing and potentially casting the evil eye upon them, which could bring harm.
How to Avoid the Evil Eye
Hence, my dear readers, you are like family to me, take a moment to consider before you upload your photos and share every aspect of your life. I am not suggesting that you completely disconnect from technology. Instead, we urge you to use it wisely, to make the most of it, but not to allow it to harm your own well-being.
Certainly, you can share some of the good things that happen to you with sincere people, but it doesn't have to be everything.
The reality is, when you post one, two, three, or even ten pictures of your blessings, there are people who see them and wish for the same in their lives. They work hard for it, while you seemingly have it effortlessly. Can they handle that feeling? There will come a point when they may develop envy or resentment, thinking, "Look at this person, they have it all!" Yet, they are unaware of the challenges and problems you face in this worldly life. Imagine if we were to consistently share the hardships we face in life; we'd be dwelling in negativity. Human nature inclines us to present a positive image of ourselves.
So, there's no harm in portraying that positive image, but it doesn't have to reveal every intricate detail of your life. Keep those aspects private, known only to you and your loved ones. If you feel the need, occasionally, you may choose to share such details with a select few.
