Supernatural Powers of Masters in Buddhism

Life aint finite in the method people think.

ie.... you sleep each nite (not conscious) but still alive. You are from the cell division (sperm/egg) of your parents and theirs and theirs and theirs all the way back to the beginning of time.

Darwin, WON! (he lives in what he left)

AS for the possibility, i agree mankind can take metal and make an airplane. To a normal person building a rocketship is practically magic.

In the 1st century, a bic lighter would have made you a god!
 
oh well my supernatural powers enables me to help the people, i can stopp their suffering.

But that is not my goal, nor my job, **** for them, but still i have supernatural powers, really.

Umm... Right... They don't care to be properly tested and save starving kids all over the world but they care enough to make a stupid Youtube video.

Guess what excuses Sylvia Browne, Uri Geller, JZ Knight and all the rest of the charlatans out there give? These guys are no different.

Even if these don't really "feel like it", you would still see almost every single government and coroporation on earth attempt to investigate these issues.
Are you saying that major corporations won't send these people students to learn their secrets? People would flock there by masses.

I don't mean to sound rude or anything, but it's crystal clear that not only your standards of evidence is extremely low if you think these guys are anything more than carni workers, but also that you haven't fully considered the implications of what the mere existence of these people would alter on our world regardless of their desires to do so or not.

Sure.....you do.

each are basically a bag of rocks with choice, but some are incapable of even spelling integrity


i know each could plant a grove of trees and live well beyond their time of consciousness, but too many idiots discount reality.............. just because they can

Wrong. Even if they didn't care about the money they'd be interested in giving their personal belief system a boost by beating the challenge. So, another cop-out.

sorry.

but the cop out is you believe the majority of people think like you.

I dont.

them monks can live without a grocery store availible to them. I believe you would starve without others providing for you.

I can live off the land quite effectively. You would have trouble surviving with the local stores, and the person that guides you to them.

i have alot respect of those monks and their enorm commitment to what they do.

calculating time was practically magic. It is important to planting and harvesting crops (survival of large communities). It is as important as having integrity held within good friend but i guess both concepts are unique to some folks!

you have no respect for much of anyone

ie..... name ONE amazing 'stuff' that the monks do?


So please, tell me what 'alot respect' is grounded too if you could not even spell one of their names in their language?


Name one item a monk does that gets your 'alot respect'?


ie.... i could respect a politician if they could handle one item a monks does; live without the need of possessions.

it was practically not supernatural at all, it was nature pure.

comprehension of why alone is what is supernatural? Which instinctive life can do it and know why?


Where is my million, randi?

an absorbtion of energy and conversion within the body without physical intake of mass, would be something!


is it possible....................... i dont see it as the cells would have to be capable of absorbing from the environment (kind of like the p680 of plants)
 
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Axel Erlandson, surely the greatest of Buddhist Masters. Even if he wasn't, you know, Buddhist or a master.

ETA: The teardrop shaped rock with the 'finger' or 'toe' impression in it looks like nothing more than a normal, chipped rock that has spent time in a river eroding the chip edges smooth.
