From personal experience, I say many things can be trained. I met an interesting individual years ago that everybody shunned because they said the he
was creepy, but couldn't say why when I tried to delve into the reasons for why people found him creepy. The best they could say was "he seems to
manifest out of nowhere when he's being discussed'. The second most common argument was that the guy was arrogant.
Well, personally I didn't find anything strange about the person but while having a spiritual / religious conversation, I confronted him on his
arrogance that was pissing me off during the discussion. The guy fell silent and subsequently withdrew from the conversation. I though nothing about
it at the moment.
Next morning, I was surprised to find the man sitting in front of my house when I woke up. He apologized for being an arrogant ass**** and thanked me
for teaching him a lesson and wanted to teach me something in return. I thanked him, but said I don't require anything in return, I was just happy he
came to his senses. However, he insisted on teaching me something but refused to say what. My interest was naturally aroused.
For the next few days, he took me to a special place in the forest that he said he had prepared. It was a small clearing with bare packed ground. In
the middle of the area was a tiny sprout that had just germinated. He advised me to meditate on the sprout and not leave the area until evening when
the sun started setting. The first few days, I found it hard to stay in the area even though I was doing meditation at the time. I couldn't see the
point of the exercise. On the third day, I was already bored and suspected the man was getting revenge on me for scolding him. There was nothing to
learn here, I concluded. Anyway, I decided this was the last time I would come here.
The man used to drop me off in the morning and fetch me in the evening when the sun was setting. Every time he fetched me in the evening, he would
look at me and shake his head and say we would be back in the morning. On the third day, I sat down to do my meditation as usual and the man left.
That day, he returned about 10 minutes later, or so i thought and I commented on it to him. He pointed at the sky, it was evening already. I was
bewildered, I was almost sure no more that 10 minutes had passed and this time he seemed to be delighted at my progress. I tried to recall the day,
the only thing that I could remember was that I was tuned, in sync with the small plant growing in the middle of the clearing. I remember turning my
'leaves' with the sun, the surge of nutrients and water in my 'stem', for all purposes, I was the plant growing in the clearing all day long. It was a
confusing feeling.
Next day, he took me to another clearing with a larger plant in the middle. The same happened as with the sprout, I was the plant all day. I lost
total track of time as I did before. The day after that, it was a huge banyan tree, hundreds of years old in ruined temple grounds. The rush off this
huge tree was incredible, I 'saw' hundreds of years of history around the tree with my minds eye and details of the temple which since had crumbled to
piles of rock. I thought I was imaging 'the history' of the tree, but it became even more creepy when the man asked what I had seen and could recount
the same now nonexistent details that I had observed during my 'vision'.
By know, I was getting a little scared of my new 'skills'. I could not rationalize anything anymore. On top of that I started astral projecting during
the night which only added to my confusion. The following week, we did Castaneda style 'power walking' in the pitch of night in a area with razor
sharp lava rock cliffs and thorny bushes. Never got a scratch and there were no cliffs, the ground was even. I tried navigating the same area in
daylight, cut my foot on lava rock and got multiple bleeding scratches off the thorns when trying to trace my nightly 'power walks'. I was getting
even more confused. At the time I was not familiar with Castaneda either, only made the connection years later.
Then one evening, sitting on the beach and watching the sunset, I observed a beautiful woman, whom I had noticed earlier walk onto the beach and start
doing her evening yoga as the sun was setting. She had he back towards me. For some reason, I lifted my hand and started to trace the rhythm of
movements she was making while doing yoga, suddenly I heard her thoughts and at the same moment she turned around furious (she was about 20-30m away)
and shouted at me to stay out of her head. I was stupefied and couldn't say anything.
I confronted my teacher about it and he laughed. Yes, you will hear other peoples thoughts if you want to if you continue on this road I am showing
you. You will also be able to resist the elements, extreme cold or heat. You will gain telekinesis, teleportation, you will be able to pass solid
matter, you will gain all sort of abilities that are considered supernatural. Now, do you understand why I was a little arrogant? Reality is not what
you are taught it to be, all is resonance and everything is connected. If you can tune yourself correctly, you can perform the supernatural.
After this discussion, I was terrified. The next day I told the man, I'm done with more training as the fear of the unknown (not being able to
rationalize) has turned into terror as I cannot see where this path would ultimately take me. It took me years to digest what I had 'learned'. I still
can do 'power walking' in pitch black, I still astral project sometimes, which never happen prior to my training. I have a good sense of energies of
people and places, recently made my friend startled when commented on their country mansion 'This place is sure haunted'. He said it is something
their family does not discuss, but all of them have had weird experiences in the country house including their dog.
Haven't told many people about this, I think most would consider me a nutter.
