Complete list of powers
帖子: 1729 加入日期: 12-1-18 最近的帖子
Hey all, why not organise and categorize all the powers/siddhis?
I don't think it's been done here, especially organization. I'd love to see what crowd source can do besides just listing vs incorporating various types/category.
To get it started- Robert Heinlein
TELEPATHY. Basic course required of all students not qualified by examination. Practical instruction up to and includingrapport prerequisite in all departments. Laboratory
RATIOCINATION, I, II, III, IV. R.I. Memory. R.II. Perception; clairvoyance, clairaudience, discretion of mass, -time, -and-space, non-mathematical relation, order, and structure, harmonic form and interval. R.III. Dual and parallel thought processes. Detachment. R.IV. Meditation (seminar)
AUTOKINETICS. Discrete kinesthesia. Endocrine control with esp. application to the affective senses and to suppression of fatigue, regeneration, transformation (clinical aspects of lycanthropy), sex determination, inversion, autoanaesthesia, rejuvenation.
TELEKINETICS. Life-mass-space-time continua. Prerequisite; autokinetics. Teleportation and general action at a distance. Projection. Dynamics. Statics. Orientation.
HISTORY. Courses by arrangement. Special discussions of psychometry with reference to telepathic records, and of metempsychosis. Evaluation is a prerequisite for all courses in this department.
HUMAN ESTHETICS. Seminar. Autokinetics and technique of telepathic recording (psychometry) a prerequisite.
HUMANETHICS. Seminar. Given concurrently with all other courses. Consult with instructor.Perhaps some of the value of the instruction would

Yes, standard Nondual creates compassion as you are no longer separate. Look a bit deeper into that and see if there might be a bit more.

This article has a lot of information on siddis in Hinduism:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siddhi
These sutras are referenced here (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miracles_of_Gautama_Buddha#Psychic_Abilities) they have a lot of overlap but discuss abilities in buddhism:
Iddhipada-vibhanga Sutta: Analysis of the Bases of Power
https://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/sn/sn51/sn51.020.than.html
Samaññaphala Sutta: The Fruits of the Contemplative Life
https://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/dn/dn.02.0.than.html
Kevatta (Kevaddha) Sutta: To Kevatta
https://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/dn/dn.11.0.than.html
Lohicca Sutta: To Lohicca

Where did you get this information? I looked up Robert Heinline, it say's he was a comic book author - how is the relation between him and Siddhi's?

Better information on Heinlein:
https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Robert_A._Heinlein
I think I've read almost all his books and short stories. Beloved science fiction writer from the Golden Era, creator of the term "grok," for which I will forever be thankful. May he rest in peace.

It's hard to recommend just one, so here are two:
Lifeline
Blowups Happen
Also, just to throw this in here, my most favorite science fiction AND science fact writer, Isaac Asimov, wrote the best science fiction short story of all time:
Nightfall
And... Asimov wrote the best science fiction trilogy ever:
Foundation (being made into a movie for Apple+)
Foundation and Empire
Second Foundation
<Apologies to the topic originator for being so off-topic, and to fans of Frank Herbert's Dune trilogy.>

A friend of ours actually took the name Grok.

My favorite Heinlein quote is:
https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/697618-throughout-history-poverty-is-the-normal-condition-of-man-advances
“Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.
This is known as "bad luck.”
― Robert Heinlein
