One of the things that is mentioned quite a bit from India sources and not so much from China and Japan is "powers". As one's meditation matures and awareness can actually control the mind one has the ability to form artifacts of consciousness and project them. This has a certain appeal especially if the personality is still in control, but there is the element of unintended consequences to be concerned with. Personally I think that it is valid and even important to experiment with transference of will because it is undeniable evidence of awareness as a field phenomenon, but these techniques should be treated with the same respect as a loaded gun.

did you or anybody you know experience any "powers" or siddhis.
i thought the absolute state is "no thought energy"...but if you expend subtle thought-energy on "powers" , you would have created subtle inertias ("karma").
what is the point of "powers" anyways...isn't the goal to go beyond these tangents, and stabilize in the real truth or become lotus-like.
Yes in spades, and it seems that you have avoided my point.
