I'm going to put my tinfoil hat on for a moment & just express that although bizarre & extremely unlikely to be the case, there are reports emanating
from Tibet & China, the Mongolian steppe, etc, of humans who have developed extreme powers of control over the tangible material world, because of
ancient magical teachings & meditative practices.
Everyone knows of movies such as 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon', where flying/ light-stepping over rooftops & treetops is a common motif used in
martial arts films, but these legends are based in factual powers which the Indians call 'Siddhis', basically occult powers obtained by adherence to
arcane ritual & meditative practices.
We have one notable Western example of such powers, in the activities of Jesus Christ, who, despite having the most natural advantage of all in this
area (He is by definition the ultimate master over everything in all of Creation, including the material universe & its physical forces), actually
predicted that in the last days of the current world age, such powers would be administered to the people chosen to promote certain aspects of the
message of saving grace.
Going back to the Chinese legends for a moment, one example of extreme control & mastery over physical forces & the material world is named 'Lung Pa',
and basically it is a Taoist technique in which the master is able to take huge, floating steps over flat landscapes, extending in leaps & bounds
which were possibly the inspiration for whomever created the Superman legends in the world of comic books, because around that time (early twentieth
century) certain legends such as the notion of Lung Pa were being disseminated in tracts of a sort of anthropological type, from famous world
travellers (and more obscure world travellers) who would often believe & print tracts detailing the stories they heard first hand from the mystical
sages.
I also look at in in the sense of - if the martial artists could do it, who had no special alaim to direct divinity, then it's rather obvious that the
living embodiment of Divinity itself, Jesus Christ, would be able to demonstrate the most supreme examples of such feats, as exemplified by walking on
the water, etc. He actually said 'greater things than these you shall do in my Name', hence I have a genuine religious conviction that when the world
gets even more crazy than it presently is, we will see significantly marvellous supernatural feats of mastery over the material world. Look at it
this way also - it is rather well documented that demonic possession can result in the possessed person having some measure of control over the
physical forces, including the development of extreme strength & speed, and even levitation - then of course God & His saints are most capable of
performing superior feats. It is similarly documented that many great saints down the ages, often in monasteries, demonstrated public levitation,
even to the point of certain monks having to be tied down to the pews by their brethren when they would go in to chapel for prayer, to prevent them
floating up to the roof & distracating the other parishioners..!!!!!
Of course, people who are not religious or indeed those who are antireligious wlil not believe these claims, but they are recorded quite consistently
in occasional cases. Certainly not frequent, but not entirely unheard of. Fascinating stuff - it is my personal hope that the dreams I've seen &
experienced which I believe came from the hand of the Almighty, will come to fruition, because if they do then the world is in for some incredible
times, even if it happens to be in the midst of dark times, being indeed the reason for the manifestation of the signs & wonders which are spoken of
in the gospels & in the apocalyptic literature.
