Hello,


In the Theravada perspective, is it a belief/superstition or the truth that if you cultivate your meditation practice to a certain level, you will have special abilities like mind reading? I heard this from a Mahayana monk yesterday. He even said you could "walk through walls" and see into the past and future (past lives).

I'm not too sure if it was metaphorical or not. Any ideas?

Not that it should matter, but it kind of does, because this sort of thing is very distracting.


Thanks
