Hi All,
Any one ever met a tantric guru with incredible powers such as electrogenesis, levitation, etc. I have heard of such gurus but have never myself met any and do not know anyone who has. I am very interested in learning more about these practises. Thanks

If somebody shows off his incredible powers, he is NOT A GURU. He is a magician.

A guru is a God realized being.

There are two sins which God never forgives: 1) to take his name in vain
2) whichcraft.

So you can say that God does not like magicians. This is to say the least.

Even for a sincere yoga seeker, it is possible to get siddhis. However, these siddhis are an OBSTACLE (Patanjali) in your way to God.

I would strongly avoid any magic, occult, siddhis, etc.
