Siddhis: The Magical Powers of the Spiritual Masters
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 лис 2017
- In this episode of Enlightenment Today, we will explore siddhis, the attainment of magical powers through rigorous spiritual practice. Siddhis are mentioned in a host of texts in the East, some with a positive attitude to these attainments and others with a negative stance against them. In this episode I will give siddhis an honest and open hearing based on this unique phenomenon recorded by spiritual adepts which is found in the the traditions of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Taoism. In the end it is a matter of whether you are skeptical or a believer of this ancient spiritual phenomenon.

Jason is right on! When I found your channel, I asked ( with frustrated passion) Where were you when I started out. I was led to those who were after siddhis. I was an extremely serious seeker, and was so disappointed with every new teacher/guru. I didn't realize that I was getting advanced training without consciously asking. I now pay attention to my life experiences because they are lessons from the most high.
That's awesome Anthony. I'm so happy you found my channel. I look forward to future interactions with you my friend.
Anthony, I so feel you about getting advanced training from life experiences. All though, asking sometimes helps.
I once had an "angel" (The most attractive man I've EVER seen in my life) show up in a very random spot in a forest near a beach where NO one else would walk besides me (and apparently him). I had just seemingly managed to heal some very minor wounds on my feet right before he showed up. We got to talking and he told me a story about his sister-in-law making a tumor go away via eating an insane amount of green beans. I'm 100% sure it wasn't the green beans, that it was actually her believe OR more likely, suspension of disbelieve that cured her. Because THAT is how I healed my small wounds. THAT his how I learned to manage life long allergies as well as stop misquito bites from getting really bad.
I didn't ask for teaching that time; it just happened.
Another time I flat out asked Spirit or whatever for some answers about telepathy because I was on the verge of having a breakdown around this stuff. I then "randomly" one day decided to go to a place called Spirit Lake with a friend. We "randomly" stopped at a little deli on the way so I could get a sandwich. I walked in the door and saw an old friend that I hadn't seen in 20 years but had thought of often. I thought of him often because he was the ONE person in my life that I felt could prove to me that telepathy is real.
See, we had gotten our palms read at one point together and the reader was saying all sorts of crazy things about my friend. My friend later claimed that all of them were true, that he hadn't told anyone and swore me to secrecy. (This wasn't the typical love line etc etc stuff btw).
The reader got ONE thing out of me; but I was actively blocking him because:
A) I didn't believe and didn't WANT to believe in this stuff and
B) I flat out saw a blue light shoot out of the readers forehead and go into my friends when he started reading my friend (he went first) and it freaked me out. I blocked it when I saw it and saw it splat across my forehead.
.... this same friend was a bit of a prankster and I could see him staging this sort of thing. I also wasn't sure if I had told him about the one thing the reader got from me.
Well, 20 years later when I saw that friend; I asked him if it was a prank and he was like, "Nope, it was legit."
My mind was blown.
I for one am leaning more towards the Tantric way of things. But, idk.. Buddhism also has it's appeal. The whole just realizing that everything is impermanent and that because of that achieving anything isn't worth it is appealing.
Now I'm like, "uh, what to I do with my life? I don't feel like I can function in "normal" life any more. I really don't have much of an interest to even do so anyway. I look at most things people do and go "Eeeh, that feels so childish" " It's a weird place to be.
I now just spend most of my time goofing off. But, I'm realizing that this is a rest period. Advances are STILL happening... but I Asked a few years ago for spirit to take it easy on me instead of throwing me in the deep end. (Which I feel like has happened before and it scared the crap out of me and really triggered my unbelieving self.)
Anyway, just make sure you ask for gentleness, compassion and understanding along the path. Well, unless you like it rough; then by all means, ask for Everything Everywhere All at Once. .... go see that movie first though. That route is well, hard.
Siddhis are like flowers along the way. Enjoy the sight but keep on and do not be distracted by them. Many blessings to you 🙏🏼
Brilliant 👏
The ability to make money is a must
@@eyeswideopen7777no it's not
Im a indian hindu , still I dont have much knowledge like you . Its great to see western are learnning our scriptures , but a matter of shame we have forgotten them .
Thank you my friend. It means a lot to get such a wonderful comment from an Indian Hindu like yourself. I'm sure you know a lot about Hindu knowledge. It is a shame that many aren't interested. But we can change that on my channel. Tell your friends about it.
Though some people like you lost it but many many more Indian mastered it and disseminating these wonderful knowledge. You can find many of the books written by them in the proper bookshop near you.
The issue with siddhis is that, if one happens to attain one, it usally gets miss used, in India this happens a lot. Vedanta philosophy is right when it says that siddhis can hamper the ability towards the spiritual path if one's ego is not dissolved. In order for siddhis to be truly beneficial one must perceive it with a pure heart and mind, devoid of ego, selfishness and bad intentions. But even then, attaining a siddhi is quite difficult, especially in this age of the Kali Yuga.
I want to use siddhis to anonymously help people, help my struggling country and serve society with compassion and benevolence, while also using the powers to obtain a life of relative luxury (I would not take from anyone) would that be wrong?
Once you obtain them. You no longer need them. That is the irony
with great powers comes great responsibility.
@@jaco9286 , that isn't true. It depends on your level of enlightenment. Some siddhis are very useful in everyday life and in the quest to further become enlightened. Ergo, mastery over one's body is a GREAT thing to have even at the more entry level realms.
Ergo, imagine not being in pain, being able to heal wounds, etc etc or for people like me; being able to not have massive horrible allergy attacks that make you dependent on drugs or that force you to sleep for HOURS after one hits.
It's not a you get them all at once at the end of the path sort of thing. I feel like you get them as way points while walking the path. (And once you get them sure, you can stray off the path.)
@@RenaissanceEarCandy , some would say yes. That people are the way they are because of their karma and that you or others shouldn't mess with it.
However, others will say that sometimes it's ok to use them for others.. and that part of becoming enlightened is knowing when it's ok. But, I'm like uh..... how does one know if you know for sure that its ok?
Also, there are others that would say that meddling and helping others is a higher calling that one should always do.... but again, you need to know what is the RIGHT thing to do... and THAT is hard.
Not so long ago Swami Rama demonstrated some siddhis in Meninger Foundation. He reduced his weight through will and demonstrated many such abilities.
To perform a siddhi effectively (also meaning thread) requires 3 ingredients: Samadhi, gyan and dharana meaning: pure Consciousness, vibration and intend. But they are not a goal in itself. They helping cleaning the nervous system as part of a sadhana. Siddhies are as I was taught in your own language hence "intend and (known) vibration)
One siddhi is "navel" (bellybutton) which gives a view of the psychology or "Relationship between body and Akash" and "Lightness of cotton fibre" which creates a level of levitation, but again the siddhies are not a goal it is means to attain higher state of consciousness.
would it be correct to say that Sidhhis are a natural consequence of one achieving higher state's of consciousness? Therefore they should not be seeked out specifically but rather accepted openly once they arise?
I'm very new to all of this. Exceptionally new.
Thank you for the explanation videos as it makes some digestion of material easier.
Your flow isn't annoying or preppy, which helps greatly.
You are an expert and know what you're talking about. Thanks mate.
Thank you for the gratitude Mike. I appreciate you my friend.
Nah mate you’re not new to this. Your karma brought you here to remember what you already know. Learning from Jason is having a blessed karma.
Thank you for the video. I especially like how you cite your sources so people can go and read what the attained masters said.
Thank you for the gratitude my friend. I appreciate it.

Random Stuff Online
One doesn’t not gain spiritual powers by mastering the mind or by reducing the ego. For example many corrupt spiritual teachers in the ego gain a following by saying siddhis lead to enlightenment, promising Siddons for a price….. If it was a matter of mastering the mind, than Navy Seals, extreme endurance athletes, along with many others highly strong minded and disciplined individuals would have extreme siddhis. This leads me to conclude that after years and years of spiritual practices or tantric means, raising kundalini…. One developes siddhis naturally as a side effect of getting more I tune with the energetic body of the soul, getting in tune more with the soul, giving them more excess to the mind and its capabilities. There able to excess the blocked parts of the mind. Siddhis are not accomplishments of the mind, but of the soul which gives you excess to the mind. I used to think the more excess you had to your mind, the more enlightened you were, maybe the more capabilities you will have as an individual, but psychologically maturity,self realizations,enlightenment…. isn’t based on how much of your mind you can use, but how much you have developed psychologically. Psychological development and mind usage are to different things. We see this in a lot of new age movement, star seeds, indigos….. The individuals have great gifts, but not a certain level of maturity. Reaching Psychological maturity is the evolutionallry process
to enlightenment. When you develope your psych, you grow spiritually, that is the purpose of the spiritual evolutionary processs, psychological maturity is enlightenment, mastery of the psychy. Anybody can develope siddhis after years of meditation, yoga… , or just instantly by a guru, teacher, not very one can develope there psychy to the point of maturity. That is why we’re here on earth, that is why very few are enlightened.
... that the reality we perceive is being simultaneously perceived through 'all-eyes-as-one' (as far as self-oriented-reference-pt perception goes) is the ultimate core Siddhi ... life is created 'moment to moment' the 'big bang' of the momentary realization and simultaneous cessation and creation of all that has ever been and all that will ever be can surely dispel the need to argue for or against use/misuse of Siddhis ... Siddhi = manifestation in marriage to cessation
Thanks so much for that topic. I see why many practices are kept secret. But to be honest, I think the world would be a better place if some of these practices would be released in order to bring balance. On the one hand there is technology and knowledge kept secret that could uplift humanity and the same goes for the ancient spiritual knowledge. I can confirm that siddis are true, as well as the energy related magic from personal experience. I really wish all humanity to wake up soon… there is so much to learn about our reality. And it could be used to do so much good in this realm.
Thank you for this clear exposition. You're a good instructor.
I definitely believe in siddhis. Approximately 20 years had an experience where I accidentally discovered I used one of the siddhis. My friend had a machine that could convert vcr recordings to dvd. My vcr ribbon was caught on the heads in the machine. I couldnt pull the tape free because that would destroy the tape. I si desperately wanted this tape more than anything. To my disbelief the heads that the ribbon was caught on disappeared for approximately 1 second, enough time for me to pull the ribbon(tape) free. I was in total disbelief and shock. Prior to this happening I had been meditating 2 plus hours a day using using taoist meditations from Mantak Chia's book Awaken the Healing Light of the Toa. I will never forget thisexperience and I'm so appreciative to have been blessed enough to have experienced that. We are all very powerful and should truly know this.
hi brother i want more info... when you accidentally used siddhi at that time how many years were passed since meditating? and what was your daily routine of meditation.....
@@avdhutgulambe3570I would say approximately 16 months. I remember doing the smiling meditation and the six healing sounds Fusion of the Five Elements, Microcosmic Orbit, and the practice of condensing light into the body which derived from Mantak Chia's book titled Awaken Healing Light of the Tao.
@@elbakara thanks buddy...
@@avdhutgulambe3570 My pleasure!!
Until something is in someone's own perception, awareness and experience
Then it's only belief
There's a difference between belief and knowing....
One can be realised and not display any "abilities:"
Possibly healing
Also one having attained certain abilities does not necessarily mean one is realised
If one is seeking power, abilities
For the sake of self gratification and egoic purposes
One can usually get trapped there feeding the ego
Never going beyond
I have been very fortunate to have seen and experienced many things
Things which opened my eyes
Realising anything is possible
I'm super curious what you've seen.
Interested in reading your blog.
Didn’t a zen master scold another for walking over water?
Life itself is a miracle…
That is the siddhi of being weightless
Great , good work , In Pathanjali Vibhuthi pada 3.37 also describes these are the accomplishments for the mind but also obstacles for Samadhi
Thank you Salini. I'm stoked you are diving into the great texts.
Actually, siddhis are not obstacles for samadhi, which anyone can have with a few minutes of instruction. They are obstacles for full self-realization, which means permanent satisfaction in life, and freedom from suffering.

I disagree at the end, you say the question we have to ask ourselves is wether we believe in siddhis or not. I don't think belief is important at all, people believe all sorts of things, including liberation / enlightenment. I love to watch these things, and immerse myself in satsangs, but what it comes down to in the end is our constant vigilance, investigation of our own experience.
Belief wont get anyone anywhere!
I do believe in siddhis but I aknowledge belief is useless
Great video 🙏 love this topic
This is an important point. Believing in a flat Earth or in extraterrestrials would improve our life in any reliable way, but regular spiritual practice, such as transcending, will. It's the difference between belief and experience. Belief can keep us on a path only a short time. There has to be some actual benefit that can serve as motivation to continue one's practice, even if the path is an effortless one.
Siddhis are real
Yes
Most definitely real. It’s also where the idea of “Jedi” powers come from
@paul w Indeed, only the creator whom is beyond understanding and existence, the one whom made the infinite, is real. Yes. However, he made us so that we may one day be as real as Him.
Yes. I made a magic carpet yesterday and flew to China in 1 second. Didn't even mess up my hair.
@@nagihangot6133 Yahshua said we would be able to do greater works than Him. What if we fast the same way gurus do? I almost want to believe that it will be there only way to ever come close to The Most High in our lifetimes. Its so crippling to live in a city...
Great Vid👍. I’ve been looking into such things more often lately. I believe the world needs an individual who understands how spiritually, mentally and physically enslaved we all are. So this individual needs to be born enslaved into the very world they incarnated into to SAVE. I know I’m getting into second coming areas. People of this world of darkness and hopelessness need to see, experience and most importantly interact with an individual who grew and matured in this world and somehow has mastered SUPERPOWERS for lack of a better term. This would inspire our world so powerfully that the darkness enslaving it would be obliterated by the very slaves living in it. Proving to the slaves that they too can do such things and we are all children of GOD. The downside for said Superhero is knowing that he or she will not be activating their Rainbow body this lifetime, however the satisfaction of Spiritually Liberating an entire World of life would Echo through Eternity. When the work is done, I’d smile laugh and say “Sure I’ll return One Last Time” ❤️👍😎
the abilities are op as hell, flight, increase mass, increase size, teleportation, super strenght, talking to animals, enhanced intelligence, super concentration
Thank you for defining those terms as you go along and putting them up in writing as well. 🙏
Siddhis are real and I earned mine through spiritual practice over lifetimes and decades in this life. I do not follow any of these religions/spiritualities necessarily. They come regularly with practice even if it is a Western practice as well such as Qaballah or study of Metaphysics. I do not have them all only a couple but it is quite clear that they are present in my life. And I only use them through the power and permission of The Creator. Obviously none of the black magick ones LOL I am surprised that you did not talk about psychic ability here (Clairvoyant, clairgustatory, clairsentience, etc) and also telepathy, bilocation (different from teleportation) and flying which is different from levitation, as well as invisibility. I love these and they help me to help others such as stopping rain so a sick friend won't get sicker while walking home or starting rain when there is a drought condition and people need water, for example. It is funny because the ones you will take for granted (the ones you really want you don't get first it seems ha ! like flying or levitation.. I want those but don't get them) I have had some instant manifestations come to pass.. I created instantly maple syrup showing up in my cupboard when I had guests and needed to feed them breakfast.. no syrup. closed the cabinet.. thought hard an willed it into existence and opened up the cabinet and there it was! I was doing this for others so I think this is why this happened. When I try to will a piece of red licorice it never happens ha ha.. I guess when it is personal gain, it is harder to manipulate matter.
It is certainly satisfying and helpful to others to have developed these powers; however, they cannot bring full satisfaction in life and freedom from suffering, which requires naturally switching our identification from the limited and separate self to the universal and unbounded Self.
interesting Alanna! I to have developed a few sidhis. With great power comes great responsibility
@@yourreflection7590 Yes. Great responsibility is difficult for most of us, who are ignorant of our true nature and constantly seek peace and happiness. Using siddhis for this seeking can produce very bad results. But for an earnest spiritual person, who puts realization of the universal Self as the goal, having great responsibility is very easy and natural.
Can it help me with my cronic diseases? Siddhi or healing! If this comes it can change medical industry
Siddhis are real and you will encounter them when practicing spiritual disciplines but best to shun them or they will cause your downfall if your goal is enlightenment.
You can do sadhanas and acquire them with mantras and use them for positive actions but you never know when the ego might get in the way. Mostly tantriks go after siddhis to help them with works of blackmagic....still every action has a reaction.
i;ve managed to develop a few siddhis and all mate, i only use em sparingly and wisely. With great power comes great responsibility
What siddhis did you develop and how did you do it?
I was born with precognition but I don't really know how to control it and use it whenever... I understand with a siddhi it's finely mastered/controlled and able to be used easily and whenever the being wants to ?
Enjoy what you have, and seek a path that leads to your true Self.
Not sure if you heard of black panther but he consumes a heart shaped herb which grants him full control over his body and increases his kinesthetic sense. Do you know of a herb or elixir which could possibly do this ?
Great to hear from you Deandre. I don't know much about black panther. I don't know if there are any herbs or elixirs out there that have this outcome. You might want to study Taoist tonic herbs but they are usually more do to with peaceful states and longevity.

Perhaps the best-known source of siddhi instruction and advocacy today is the Maharishi TM-Sidhi Program, which teaches the yogic technique of sanyama that develop siddhis. This technique is sometimes implied to be filled with effort, yet it's actually effortless.
Practitioners of the TM-Sidhi Program practice from about three hours a day on up, depending on the available time. This program takes about a month to learn in residence, so it is necessarily costly. It is a powerful way to eliminate stress from the nervous system, which allows us to transfer our identity from the separate and limited self, the ego, to universal consciousness, or Brahman.
Practicing the levitation portion ("flying") brings the bliss of watching silent consciousness rise up into dramatic activity. In this program, the siddhis are practiced ONLY as a stepping stone to higher natural states of consciousness, not to use them in daily ego-bound life.
A prerequisite for learning the siddhis in this way, effectively, is regular practice of Transcendental Meditation™.
All spiritual teachings should be free. Run from anything that charges you money.
I understand that we live in a world that requires money for physical operations. However, if someone or an organization is legit enough; they will be thriving off of donations and not have to charge a penny for anything.
And btw, TM is corrupt AF. Go watch the interviews on here with Maha Maharesina towards the end of his life. He became totally separated from the everyday happenings of his organization. It's understandable how it happened; ergo a combo of him becoming so spiritually advanced that he lost interest and touch with money as well as his organization probably buffering a lot of their actions from him. (Also, probably a good dose of corruption on his own part, unwitting and unsought after probably.)
----Like seriously, the man let his follower build him a palace. He should have been like, "No, don't do this thing. It is a waste of money, let us use it to further the learning." But no, he just moved in.
At the very least, anyone or any organization that charges for teachings should make it very clear that they are also open to those that don't have money and take people AT THEIR word that they can't pay and offer discounts or free teaching.
@@OgdenM "All spiritual teachings should be free" -- absolute nonsense. Examine the idea "all teaching of children should be done for free." Is it true? Why not? Don't our children deserve free teaching? Why should teachers be paid? Whether teachers of children or teachers of spirituality, teachers deserve to be paid for their training, experience, and devotion to their work, regardless of what the world expects. If you are willing to work for free, that is nice, but not everyone is wealthy, especially teachers of children and spiritual teachers.
@@OgdenM Maharishi did indeed found a university (I was part of the early discussions in 1972), and later did indeed build many "Peace Palaces" (meditation centers) throughout the world. He did not build them for his own use; he never stayed in any of the residential centers. He built them for people like you to enjoy retreats from the stressed world. That is good spiritual behavior, my friend.
@@david203 What other practices besides samyama gives siddhis?
@@Karzath Not sure I understand your question. Do you mean specifically in the TM Program, or theoretically according to Yoga?
Does the hand pose at the beginning of your video mean something? I have been looking for it‘s meaning for some time now..
The 6 "Black Magical' Siddhis are very useful if used properly. For instance, you are in a situation where unrighteous people keep attacking you, and you have given them plenty of chances to cease, Now you use these methods instead of going to jail.
Beautifully talked
If they exsist, then they shouldn't hide but should teach others how to reach the same state.
Read the bestselling book: by Chris Zanetti, to learn REAL supernatural powers.
So is Siddhis a hallmark of spiritual mastery? I would like to know if someone could enlighten me a bit. It's a fascinating subject, specially as I dive deep into my spiritual nature at 27 years old right now.
Patanjali and Shiva seems to be more active enlightenment beings with siddhis,work on kundalini and charkras vs Ramana Maharishi and Nisargadata seem to be more passive maybe have siddhis but not use them .Can someone speak about the differences?
Kundalini and chakras are not part of the Vedic tradition (the six systems of philosophy), and they can cause states of intense pain and suffering, as can ANY repeated manipulation of the mind and imagination.
Unsavory practices. It just means that as in all other pursuits the pursuit of spirituality can be easily corrupted by those interested solely in self-interested advantage. This is the basic flaw in our nature, isn't it?
But just as in all those other pursuits those so engaged are very easy to spot. At least to those sufficiently aware.
So, the goal, here, is to work on your own awareness of the whole. When you do this there will come a point where you will see immediately those who have only their self-interests at heart.
You will then steer clear of them. They are simply not as evolved, as far along the way, as you and so are unnecessary.
Just some thoughts worth about that much.

It seems to me that "the question we have to ask" our self in the end is not whether or not we believe in siddhis, but who seeks them.
Only the ego can seek them.
Great video the same powers are used in Bible and Quran stories of the prophets in the arabian nights tales lot of the same powers are shown to be used by wizards
I love it. Thank you.
I have been researching this subject, and I was wondering if anyone has any referrals. I am trying to find a valid source to use, and or study.😐
Great to hear from you my friend. I would start with the source material I mention in this episode. Siddhis is mentioned in numerous texts from the Yoga Sutras to the Puranas and Tantras. Also read books on Vedanta as they can clarify why siddhis in the greater scheme of things are not essential for liberation. Some reading I suggest: The Yoga Tradition by Georg Feuerstein, The Yoga Sutras, Bhagavad Gita, Yoga Shikha Upanishad, Brahma Sutras, Yoga Bija, and in the end any Tantra scripture. You can find these easy enough. I will be putting the links up in the description soon. Thank you for watching.
Jason Gregory Is it better to read the various texts, or study under a Siddha? I have been trying to find proper sources and a valid Siddha, to study under. From what I have been able to ascertain, all sources that are commercialized are not valid. Although, I have been uncertain about the validity of free sources, as well. There are so many conflicting opinions, I am not sure what school,and or path, I should follow.
It just depends on what you want? Are you interested in siddhis or do you want liberation? I would say read the material I suggested and also finding a Siddha is good. To find a Siddha you should go to India. I have a suggesting that I would recommend, go to Tiruvannamalai for 6 months. Rent a house out of town and go to Ramana Ashram daily and also be in the presence of Sadhus along Pradashina Rd. At the ashram there are some great teachers. Keep in mind this is the Advaita Vedanta tradition, as Ramana Maharshi followed that path. This is my favorite place in the world and I go there regularly for sadhana. So I hope my thoughts are helpful.
So you can basically have superpowers in real life right
Well so some of the scriptures say my friend.
Technology (smart phones, A.I., quantum computers..) shows us what we are capable of within. I could use technology (siddhis--magical powers) to control and restrict or to set free and expand.
Exactly... this is the perfection or getting mastery over the outside things rather than inside ones...siddhi means mastery over anything to the perfection
VERY IMPRESSIVE EXPLANATION , IT WAS TAUGHT TO US IN DIVINE LIFE SOCIETY THAT SIDDHIS ( POWERS ) ARE BY PRODUCT OF SADHANA SPIRITUAL PRACTICES . THERE ARE NOTHING MORE AS A TOY OF A YOGI . IT WILL CAUSE YOUR DOWNFALL .
From the perspective of the ego, that is true. Annihilation is a part of enlightenment.
@@inphiknitfractal The "downfall" is not the annihilation of the ego, which is indeed required for self-realization. The "downfall" is being sidetracked from completing sadhana and reaching self-realization.
@@david203 I completely agree, that is the way it has been in the age of Kali..I just think there may be a reason for these abilities that goes beyond a toy.
@@inphiknitfractal I say they are toys for children, based on my own experience of them, having taken the TM-Sidhi course. They are that when compared with the freedom most of us are missing by not living in our true Self, which is the unbounded peace, happiness, love, contentment, productivity, flexibility, intelligence, and creativity of pure consciousness. Yes, it is the age of Kali that causes our ignorance, but ignorance is part of the progression to full knowledge and experience that an effective spiritual path will bring to anyone, even in the age of Kali.
@@david203 Look at the state our world is currently in... 90% of people wholly believe that a minute particle (20-140 billionths of a meter) can determine their fate.... Learning to be invulnerable to matter and specific frequencies being weaponized on the population (Look up Dr Barrie Trower, world renowned microwave weapons specialist on non ionizing radiation)
I understand from experience that in the state of Samadhi, self realization, none of this matters since you are identified more with your spirit than body, but if you empathize for others, the Siddhi powers might be something helpful to exemplify human potential to be beyond this victim state of being by bringing the body and spirit to their full potential.
Dope video!
I love that you impressed the importance of the ego in relation to siddhis. If one wants them, they should let go of the desire for them along their spiritual journey. Then, one will overcome their ego before they achieve them.
Great point Ben. I appreciate your thoughts brother.
How do you let go of that desire, though?
@@RenaissanceEarCandy Like you let go of anything: by letting go. If you can't do that, you are gripped by conditioning and need to find a teacher you resonate with. My own clients learn effortlessness quickly. There is no obstacle, other than the rarity of good teaching.
The realization comes there has never been a physical universe.
Personal egoic ownership vanishes with the knowledge that who you thought you have been all your life, was a mistake of the intellect.
That being known, brahm alone Is.
Brahm: simutaneously source, process, experincer.
Thus liberated, no aspriant remains. Sutra: source, process and expression are Brahm.
In this way, by absolutely transcending his own individuality the aspirant never generated the yoga sutra, never practiced the Yoga sutra, and the fullment of the outcome of the Siddhi practice is absolutely only Brahm.
PURE consciousness alone Is.
Thank you.. God bless...
Excellent work. Thank you.
Gregory how can I learn the siddhis specifically precognition and telepathy and telekinesis also I eventually want to learn omniscience and omnipotence what do you recommend?
No.... you will get siddhi if you do sadhana.. but you can't sadhana if you do it for siddhi..
telepathi is very very common in sadhana ... Even guru use to taught their students in telepathy. But the thing is , nature only allow to the people to have such powers who are desire less .. They can see any corner of the world , they can hear any corner of the world. They can control any humans mind. They can loudly hear what a next person is thinking in his mind. But the siddhis are useless for them.. They have it.. But they don't have desire to use it..

Any one can achieve sidddhi (magical powers) by doing Sadhna with Mana, Kram, Vachan.
And Any one can achieve Kundalini powers with the deciplin of yam, niyam, asan, pranayam, partyahar, dhyan, dharna and samadhi.
Yes, this is true. However it is usually necessary to learn from a course, or at least from a teacher. You cannot learn the subtle aspect any of these techniques from a book on your own. That is like trying to use a mechanism that doesn't work right (the ego) to heal itself: it can't be successful.
Marvellous explanations! Have you experienced any siddhis? I believe as you say at the end that they must not be an end in themselves but as 'gifts of God' to carry out the divine will. The dark siddhi's list gave me the creeps... the dark side it is😀
Siddhis... back in the day I would listen to my Chingy Siddhis.
Very good documentation..
Thank you dearly Ram.
Very interesting.Thank you.
Thank you for watching my friend.
Siddhis are not just 8 or 9 there are 18 Siddhis. Some say there are 32 Siddhis.
Limited only by imagination. When you renounce ego and power, any desired power can seem to come as needed.
I have seen a Rishi far away in the Amazon Rainforest who was SUPER HUMAN. I was just 7 years old. This yogi never spoke a word,
Can you explain more pl
@@MrRgsram I wish I could brother. I can only remember Him sitting under a mango tree and watching me. His eyes were telling me I will show you something, The second time, late night in the jungle He transformed Himself in fire and became a giant. The tribal people who are very strong and are great fighters also were present and they bowed before Him. I was not alone, I will never forget this Baba. I asked my sister if I was hallucinating. She also saw it. You can read about these powers in the Yoga sutras of Patanjali,
@@sunnycriti9809 Thank you for the narration..Yes ..I will read yoga sutras.
I just learning about this... very interesting! Any chance that magicians such as David Blaine as using these powers? He does seem like to type who is willing to put in long sustained work and suffer discomfort in pursuit of a goal.
Nope
David Blaine is a magician, whose purpose is to entertain by means of illusion. He thankfully does not offer himself as a spiritual teacher.
I mean, yes, in a way. I feel like a Siddhi is really just something that you do that is either so fast or so incomprehensible to those that don't know what you're doing that it looks like magic.
Some of what David does is a siddhi like the holding his breath while escaping from a locked box full of water.
Walking up building by using harneses etc etc? Not so much.
@@OgdenM I learned the TM-Sidhi Program and assure you it is not fast to learn or practice. It is also effortless to understand, like Transcendental Meditation itself. It does not look like magic. It looks like people hopping around, with big smiles on their faces.
David Blaine is a magician, whose work is astounding others through lies, tricks, and misdirection. He is very good at it, but it has nothing to do with the siddhis, which are simply a technique for enjoying more spiritual strength and happiness.
so do people actually fly and levitate or is this some sort of metaphor bc to me it seems to violate some laws of physics idk :/ (actual question)
We as consciousness make laws of physics because physics is all about material things and we r metphysical consciousness, a creative energy...and we can overpower all material things whenever we r concentrated enough..this has been proved by quantum physics
gaurav patil can you prove it?
It's all bs no matter what corner of the globe your looking in. The only true super human abilities we process are those unlocked during the fight or flight response. It's then that the oldest and most survival adept part of our brain takes over. The brain stem or lizard brain assess the situation instantly deciding whether fight or flight is optimal. Depending on which action is chosen different chemicals and hormones coarse through the bloodstream. It's at this point that the human body is capable of going beyond its physical limits to ensure survival. This is the closest thing you will ever get to super powers
In my experience with the flying technique, in the TM-Sidhi Program, there is no violation of the laws of physics, only subjective waves of happiness while the body is hopping.
Hey Jason I have 2 questions that have been driving me nuts for some time. The 1st is do you get siddhis by unlocking the 7 chakras because I've read some comments that doing so with said chakras also gives you powers. The 2nd is if you the 64 minor siddish I already know about the eight main ones but not much else can you help me?
Thank you for this knowledge.
Thank you dearly my friend.
II believe Tantra is the escape route for many of us in the centuries to come.
we all are omniscient, ever-present and mighty.
during what we call a human lifespan these abilities are being reduced due to conditioning of all kinds.
the goal of all high religious practice is to "brainwash" ourselves back to that natural perfection of oneness and all-pervading consciousness.
siddhis are just certain powers that are inherent - like all our powers and qualities - and can unfold as soon as they are allowed to.
there is not time and no free will in ultimate reality, everything expands into NO-thing, simply by itself.
all else are our made up stories.
the moment you separate the ego from the self, duality is born and duality is maya. and maya is only the dual nature of the singularity, which arises from the sense of separation from the true singularity. ego is and always will be as one with the self as the self is one with itself.
just a thought... if you like it its yours.
The world is illusory; Brahman alone is real; Brahman is the world.
@paul w Don't ask me.
Ask Ramana Maharshi
Each Siddhi is a test of the yogi. If the yogi uses the Siddhis, then he or she has to do much more to renounce the Siddhis. Once all the Siddhis are renounced, the yogi attains liberation. He or she merges with Lord Shiva.
However, to begin meditation to get these Siddhis, one has to first renounce the earthly pleasures, namely, meat, sex, lies, ego, ownership, etc. Then learn yoga postures, breathing and meditation.
Only then can one begin meditation for Siddhis. As and when one gets the Siddhis, one has to remain calm and remain almost indifferent.
Siddhis should only be seen as “markers” showing the yogi the path to enlightenment and liberation.
Partially correct. There is no need to change one's life before starting an effective sadhana, one that produces results right away and keeps on producing them. One's life will naturally change as needed.
To understand more about this read Living with the Himalayan master .True spiritual masters will NEVER reveal their Siddhis to any human being. To understand about this a seeker needs to spend a great deal of time with such a YOGI .These are Divine Powers only to be used for the Good of Man. Such masters exist in north of lndia ,
are they warriors
Thank you 🧡🥭
This is such a great video and very enjoyable :). Well, if you had the ninth great siddhi Kama-avasayita which i can't get enough of hearing about :), the unobstructed ability to will anything you want into manifestation, the problem of this life would be solved. I've always fantasized about this, but i still can't understand if all humans have these abilities why don't they naturally or effortlessly manifest them? In my own philosophy i more or less connect with the Western philosophical thought of Solipsism, these Siddhis are just a somewhat eastern version of the idea that i'm in complete control and that the Self manifests everything around it, from earthly existence to the ends of the Cosmos. Thanks :). J-U.
We think alike I'm into Solipsism too, a pleasure to read that I'm not alone. Wait...
You don't need a siddhi, including the ability to manifest objects, to become peaceful and happy. All you have to do is transcend thought effortlessly and repeatedly, so that you discover your true self, which is peace, happiness, love, and complete satisfaction beyond any desire.
@@tedjohnson5081 Solipsism means the ego is in full control. This could very well be a definition of pure evil. If you wish peace and happiness, you will never find it in the ego, which is always dissatisfied and anxious. You can only find it in impersonal and unbounded consciousness, the Self, Brahman.
Sufism in Islam also speak of powers or miracles called kuruma. In essence is the same as siddhis.

i got angry, pointed at a bed across the room, aybe like 40 feet away, and commanded it to RISE, and it rose up and slammed into the ceiling, i worked myself up into a weird state
i could also see in a 360 degree bubble around me, and see everything in that bubble including inside my bones, in the floor boards, into the attic, into the floor and the ground beneath the floor
it scared me when it happened and i snapped out of that weird state, and the bed crashed into the ground from the ceiling.
My gurus gurus guru apported some pomegrantes from Afghanistan while sitting in India, a giant pommegrante with branch still attached just like it had been broken off the tree 1 second ago, because it actually was...
next time you are in a state like that you should try and apport something

yes, just cuz it didnt happen to you doesn't mean it didnt happen to me. i guess its one of those things you would have to see to believe.
its fine to play with these things, don't worry about negative entities you can always get rid of em. don't listen to people like this paul character they will just guide your life with fear and ignorance.

@@maxheedrum100 Find an effective mental or spiritual technique that resonates with you, but actually works, like transcending or nonduality.
Achieve magical power through siddhi, it is 100% real.
It's insane. I was raised catholic and was encouraged to delve deep into catholic religion. I've read many religious scriptures and am well informed of the bible.
I won't go into specifics, but about 12 years ago I had what I will call a "spiritual experience". In this "experience" I was "told" that I needed to explore meditation and that meditation would guide me to the "knowledge" I was seeking (at the time I wanted to know what was real as far as the spiritual) I had NEVER meditated in my life (consciously) and, in fact, always thought it was a waste of time or useless.
So I began to meditate and meditate and meditate. Over a period of 3 months I would say, my life and the way I saw things changed forever. I learned that even though I was raised Catholic, religion is NOT the way to TRUE spiritual enlightenment. I learned that the path to enlightenment also involves one letting go of wants and desires. I learned that dominating the ego and ultimately releasing the ego was another step to true spirituality. Another thing I learned along the way was that I was attaining these "powers" or special abilities like being able to feel what someone is thinking or doing, being energetic by eating less, or having boundless energy all the while sleeping less. Thanks to your video, now I understand that these "gifts" or "special abilities" are real and they're called "Siddhis"
I never understood any of this, or why it was happening. Imagine my SHOCK at realizing that all of these experiences are congruent with Buddhism (I didn't even know this until I started sharing my experiences with a really devout Cristian and he mentioned that my experiences were really sounding like Buddhism). How could this be POSSIBLE if I was raised Catholic? To this day I don't understand what Buddhism is in its entirety but I DO know (I've looked for information on this recently) that the Buddha was someone who attained almost perfect spiritual enlightenment. How was he able to do this? Through deep meditation and spiritual development. Which again, is so weird to me because I was attempting to find the truth about spirituality and it led me to the beginning: Meditation. Nobody told me to do this, I was made to know about this in a "vision". Mind you, if you were wondering... I don't use mind altering chemicals or substances and never have. (Neither did I have a near death experience, as most people usually say they "see things" in those experiences as well) I've always had a deep personal "feeling" that your body is your temple, and you should always respect it and uphold it. Again, I don't know how or why I felt this way because as a Catholic, you just pray and pray and pray and "hope that god forgives you for being a SINNER" and all that jazz (Atleast that's what I understood from all the church goings and bible studies etc)
Thank you for your video on this subject matter. Your work is GREATLY appreciated.
All due respect, but I do not believe what you're describing are siddhis, at least not in the way they're described here or from what I've heard. They're just natural byproducts of an eastern monastic lifestyle. water fasting often leads to increased energy. Meditation can supplement sleep. Deep meditation raises your level of consciousness and makes you more aware, intuitive, and perceptive.
How can I contact you Jason?
Through my website Kevon.
"high moral values" apparently refer to (in most cultures) amongst humans. As long as we're not sinning against our neighbor, it's all fine. We can still kill animals to eat them or pretend we're not killing animals by eating plants (which is a glitch in the matrix because apparently, plants don't feel pain?). It is immoral to wish anything bad upon human meat, but if it's a pig there's nothing wrong with it apparently. This sort of pixie dust morality in spiritual traditions makes me sick sometimes.
My only doubt it's been almost 2000 years since we have some historic data why none of the person from western land have attained the state of enlightenment.In most recent person is Vallalar who has attained that state even in the recent 150 years .Are westerners researching Tamil texts or siddhars I see everybody is inclined towards Sanskrit and doing their analysis and videos on those lines...
Most westerners don’t truly believe enough
Do you feel that the attainment of Rupert Spira is false then?
Very good point, tamil texts written by tamil sages can provide very good insight into the concept of it.
Nonsense. I know of many who have reached full awakening in self-realization, then gone on to higher levels of consciousness. Don't make up facts. Make up opinions only.

Yes, ego versus ego certainly involves power, but that isn't the same as the subtlety of siddhis.

How to acquire Siddhis [ specifically Telepathy, Omniscience, Telekinesis ? ]
Siddhis are a natural byproduct of strict spiritual sadhana. From all reports, they may occur after a long time engrossed in a specific spiritual practice, such as vipassana, hatha yoga, or qi gong. But siddhis should not be desired in and of themselves. No one should ever desire siddhis and they actually won't happen for someone with such a mindset. They are just an effect of someone's spiritual quest for liberation. For some, the ego can get attracted to them and use them for selfish needs. This is what black magic is in the internal arts. Siddhis have nothing to do with liberation, but may signal that one is making some ground in their practice. But even siddhis have to be dropped for realization. Liberation should always be the focus, the realization that Atman is Brahman.
@@JasonGregoryAuthor yeah I get that and I only slightly desire siddhis ultimately I do want liberation
Also is telepathy a siddhi or no ?

Laghima Siddhi - The ability to make one's body lighter than air and fly at will. The perfection of this siddhi enables one to travel on the sun's rays and enter into the sun planet. " Specifically the sun rays and sun planet.... can u explain please thanks
Also I think some of the reason why most people will say if you are seeking siddhis you won't get them is not because it's true but as a cop out... I think seeking them or not one will be able to find them
Also is telepathy a siddhi ?
@@cazimim3375 I would say so, yes.
This is all lovely, but I don’t believe we need to know all these terms and teachings to be enlightened.
The best siddhi is to alter the reality....which is hardest to achieve...
The easiest way to alter reality is to eliminate suffering by looking inside and finding our true nature as peace and joy in unbounded consciousness.

The aptly-named *shat-karma* Aspects of lower tondra all have one property in common, Which inherently generates karma that seeks to have you experienced the same interaction from the Opposite perspective, In order to maximize the information generated from a single interaction this actually occurs when you help other people come up to, it just happens Simultaneously, and is experienced as a feeling of love and unity.
That having been said, separation isn't all bad,And it's, in fact, actually necessary to have any meaningful experience at all, as without it, everything Would all be smashed together, and Without the absence of 1/2 of the diabetes, there would be no Meaningful experience, which seems to suggest that unity is call functionally speaking, identical to non existence, which would explain why the creator Spends its time playing this rousing game of "I'm not touching you" with chaos and non-existence, Because it can't actually exists as everything coming within the context of conscious experience, As even if it existed in that completely billions of years, Without any form of dicoda mean I caught a me come upon which 2 define meaning with an experience, The awareness would inherently begin Experiencing holographic hallucimachines, artifacts of it it's information processing Machinations, as it is necessitated by the nature of consciousness to have experience, meaning that when there is no Stimuli automatically being presented, consciousness necessarily and automatically Generate its own, As evidenced by human beings within sensory deprivation scenarios Quickly hallucinating fully immersive experiences until alternate stimuli are reintroduced. This actually leads me to believe That this is the definition of our reality, fat the creator hasn't actually generated anything, but is simplywe're donating due to the fact that is devoid of Enough particular quality to actually experience anything other than the holographic artifacts of the way it processes information.

You can only throw the black lotus on alternate Tuesdays, while facing southwest. Then, booya.
All siddhis are under the control of ten wisdom goddesses.
Each wisdom goddess is created by a turtle-magician, who sits on a throne made of pure aluminum and throws dice all day. Why do people think up these odd things, then state them as facts?
I awakened my powers by resting, taking lots of naps. There's really no need to suffer or go through any discomfort. You're either born with an open channel to manipulate time, energy, and matter or you're not.
We all are stop lying to unaware ppl, it just comes easier to some people based on bloodline, environments, etc.
Or you can learn it on the way to full freedom. Resting alone can't do much when we are filled with the stress inherited from a stressed world.
