Can magical powers be acquired through yoga and meditatioin?

Question

i have asked this question earlier also and i have associted criss angel and david blaine with it but most of the people say that they perform illusions. but how criss angel is able to predict the future or uproot the tree or walking on water or seeing the future. and what about the trick in which the card selected by anyone comes from the other side of the mirror. i think there is something beyond illusion.

Answer 1

Yes.  I have done yoga and meditation for years, and I have acquired certain unusual capabilities from doing so.

Answer 2

something beyond illusion, yes. but whether that comes from yoga or meditation, i am not sure and would probably guess not. i could guestimate and say he's got a powerful mind and spirit and is something like a clairvoyant with other additional 'powers' but it would simply be that, a guestimate. and how he does it, im not sure.

Answer 3

Not the way you mean it, no. Criss Angel and David Blaine are illusionists or stage magicians.

But through yoga and meditation, after many years, it is possible to train your mind in such a way that it appears "magical" or "psychic".

Answer 4

well yes it comes from the mind.

Answer 5

yes and they are called siddhis , and they are aquire through samyama yoga and meditation.look them up here : http://www.angelfire.com/realm/bodhisatt...

when you get them , you wont really care that much , becuase your body and mind will be purified and its going to look for spitritual development and realization , instead of wanting to be superhero-like . it wont matter already , cuz you wont have nothing to prove .

Answer 6

no

Answer 7

No.

Blaine and Angel are illusionists.  If you refuse to belief that magicians are just magicians there is nothing I can do for you.

Answer 8

It's not magic that your can acquire by meditation. Only the full control of your mind can be acquired. It happens gradually...like making a building.

You know only 4% of or brain functions and Einstein could control 14% and the Lord Buddha could control 100% of his brain which made him to be the king of kings or a universal monarch!

So it's very very likely that you can gain power by meditation. But it take years. Lord Buddha could gain the fu contral at the age of 49!

But I don't think you wanna get 100% of your brain controled!

Keep meditating in a calm place at least 12minutes nonestop and day by day you can increase the time you spend on it!

Good luck!

Answer 9

Nope.  Criss Angel will be the first to tell you - it's a trick.  He's not magic.  No one is, and no amount of superstition or stretching will get you to the point where you can break the laws of physics.

Sorry.  I'm sure it's not what you wanted to hear, but you deserve to know the truth.

Answer 10

yes.. but you gotta do it in a serious way without any ego for years.. and years..but you shouldnt meditate just to get magical powers.. instead you should do it to raise your vibration and to work on myself.
