IMO the siddhis are valid. As mentioned before on this forum, I personally have experienced the siddhi relating to being "small as an atom", even though I only used the basic TM mantra. While in samadhi, I saw my consiousness floating nearby glowing pink rods and cones. I later realized that these were actually the inner structure of the retina in my eyes.
One other guy from this forum have admitted to me he had experienced the same thing. In summary, the experience only convinced me that the atomic particle is part of consciousness, or that it can sustain consciousness in its structure, which is more likely both in particle and wave forms. This would apply to all the other subatomic particles that physicists have discovered and are in the process of discovering. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "emptybill" <emptyb...@...> wrote: > > Card ... give it up. > > Theosophical speculations abound in his works. > Taimini should have stayed in the chem lab. > > How many hidden masters did he claim to have > visited with? > > Maybe he found Blavatsky reborn in New Jersey. > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, cardemaister <no_reply@> wrote: > > > > > > From Taimni's comment on YS III 15: > > > > The Yogic philosophy takes a more sensible and scientific > > view [than "Western" science].
