Siddhis: Yogic Superpowers

Yogic Paths

Siddhis, or yogic superpowers, are said to be cultivated through an exceptional mind and body connection, derived through meditation with specific intention. Powers such as telepathy, telekinesis, clairvoyance, the ability to heal, levitation, and flight are possible siddhis, although whether or not a yogi should strive to attain these powers is another story. In some traditions, striving for siddhis means that you will forego being spiritually realized in this lifetime, and ultimately distracted from enlightenment.
