which make me believe even more in the words of the wise tibetan master Lopon Tenzin Namdak, who explains that psychic abilities develop by themselves, spontaneously and without the least effort, as a result of meditation (concentrative meditation), even though for them (tibetan masters), these powers are secondary, the real power being control over the mind and over their existance.

1) Meditation is in its own way energy work.
2) Without even targetting specific psychic abilities energy work and meditation can still and will still activate certain psychic abilities.
3) It is not "without the least effort" but "without the least effort *beyond cleansing itself*" (= without any extra effort beyond the meditation routine) that psychic abilities develop. The development of the energy body itself will manifest psychic abilities, and meditation is a technique for it.
4) Not seeking siddhis (psychic abilities) instead of liberation is standard dogma of Buddhism. This is a preference or moral choice of "enlightenment first". This does not mean "energy work does not lead to psychic abilities", instead it means "energy work and meditation *will* lead to psychic abilities, but that's not the main goal". This is part of a school of thinking that tends towards seeing psychic abilities as potential traps along the spiritual path, where they will inevitably arise.

The aforementioned points are widely known among students of the spiritual paths of Hinduism, Buddhism or Daoism or also serious students of the meditation traditions of this world.
