The belt rankings seem to be based on doing certain tricks rather than fighting ability. If even little kids can learn to break boards, then it certainly isn’t about fighting ability. Some people make it sound like a six year old with a white belt could take on the best street fighter. By traditional standards, you’d actually have to be a first degree black belt just to be considered a novice. Karate is not some kind of magical skill that makes you invincible, as seen on tv.

Do you believe in shapeshifting, that is, the ability to assume the form or characteristics of an animal, either in real-life, in dreams, or in astral-travel form?
If so, do you know any methods to achieve that state and learning that skill?
I do meditation every now and then, and I’ve managed to astral travel once, but I’ve got too freaked out and woke up as soon as I managed to start travelling.
My dream, however, is to be able to experience a shapeshifting experience, merging with my “totem animal”. The internet is full of testimonies of people that claim they do this regularly… but is it really possible? How to do it?
Of course…I’m talking about a spiritual meditation practice here!
I’m not going to actually shapeshift into an animal…
I’m just wondering if anybody had any dream/extra-sensorial experience related to shapeshifting.

Hello.Basically, I just want to know when in meditation, is there a goal that is to be reached, a desired pinnacle to be attained, or are you just simply there to strengthen your focus on breath. Secondly, how is meditation directly going to benefit/help along with developing any psychic ability? How will I notice the difference between lack of ability and growing ability? I just need to know these things in order to further motivate me. No reason in doing monotonous practice if no results are noticed. Don’t get me wrong as it takes time for these things, but I would just like like some restitution in knowing there are others like me out there. Oh one last thing, does every psychic possess a spiritual guide? Thanks Hope to hear from u soon!

I rage…alot. But I also watch alot of Star Trek and I truly admire the Vulcans for their ability to supress their emotions and meditate accordingly. Obviously I can’t go study on Vulcan for a few years, so what is a good alternative (here on Earth) to practice meditation and emotion suppression? Yoga? Tai Chi? I need guidance and suggestions to get me started on my path to self-control
calyx, to answer your questions:
1. No clue.
2. Things get destroyed immediately.
3. Never.
4. Never.
5. Almost constantly about even the smallest things, such as changed plans or surprises.
6. I am scared I might hurt someone, relationships are out of the question because of it.
7. Yes, absolutely.
As for the rest of your post, I do believe I’m running to hot. It doesn’t matter what the issue is, I go ballistic damn near instantly. And for what I ate, I don’t eat alot of meat, mostly vegetables, though I’m not a true vegetarian.
Some people say they were healed by prayer. Did prayer really heal them or does man have the ability to make himself well. In other words can anyone achieve the same results by focusing on healing – similar to meditation?
