But the hopping is supposed to be due to this controlling of natural laws. God knows why, it's not like we are going to jump in the air and stay there. Someone once asked Marshy whether this would be how levitation happened and he said that we would waft lightly into the air then float back down.
If some sort of actual anti-gravity effect was going on, the sidhas would not follow the standard parabolic arc seem in TM sidhas and common in any trajectory where the body is not acted on by some other force other than gravity (e.g. wind). It's just very basic physics.
Therefore it's easy to conclude to sidha's "hops" are due to some sort of muscle jerking. Height and length of trajectory also seems to correlate with physical fitness and athletic prowess, i.e. gymnasts tend to be "better" yogic hoppers.
So in other words, it's a scam preying on people with weak powers of discrimination.
