Once a seeker asked the question, 'Is there such a thing as a miracle in the world? If yes, then what is it?' There is no such thing as supernatural. All the powers are hidden within man. It is not that man does not realize them.
From time to time everyone feels the powers hidden within them. This is called intelligence and knowledge. When these develop, man gets extraordinary power. This is natural. Ordinary people cannot do this, so they consider this power to be supernatural. As long as the mind is trapped in bondages, it moves towards useless things, but with sadhana the bondage of the mind is broken. The mind also moves away from worldly matters. This is the development of man.
Material and spiritual progress is possible only when we move towards development. Due to mental development, a person acquires extraordinary intelligence and due to mental development, he is considered the best in the society. Spiritual development means to win over our internal enemies. Until these enemies are not under our control, they keep harming us in every way.
By living in them, man becomes more sensitive towards worldly elements. Common people start considering it as some miraculous power. According to Tantra, the sadhna which is done to win over the worldly or external elements is called 'Gair Vidya Sadhna' but where there is no knowledge or ignorance, it is called Up Vidya.
Education is the only means of human welfare, the other two are just a waste of time. The unconscious element is the subject of those who practice to gain supernatural power. On gaining such power, people use it to enhance their prestige in society or to destroy it. Man should practice to become Brahma, not to become a demon.
