I'm just a litle curious. Does anyone know how one might go about attaining kamachari? I've found a few references to this siddhi, but nothing actually useful.
I'm aware of the spiritual implications of such a question, but I'm a bit utilitarian these days.

The value of the individual is sacrosanct, but actions must be directed in an effort to affect positive change.

Greetings! Long time no see...? Well, you, of all people, should realize that the siddhi's are not just something we can chemically produce or 'inspire' by physical techniques, etc. They require the aspirant to practice with both physical and mental exercises. http://health.indianetzone.com/yoga/hathyo..._hatha_yoga.htmKamachari is basically teleportation. The above link gives a quick look at the siddhi's and the traditional route to their attainment. Being a pragmatist I would love to be able to quickly shortcut to the good stuff, LOL!, but, alas, it doesn't work that way. If you can find a cooperative yogi, then he/she may be able to astrally manipulate your energy fields...but this route can be dangerous for obvious reasons. Good luck, and good to hear from you again! (IMG: style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Silly me for not checking back on this sooner - I was expecting a delayed response not one within a few hours. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/13.gif) Yes, it has been a while, hasn't it? Since kamachari is also described as "moving to where one desires", I was half expecting the obvious answer that attaining some level of enlightenment helps you to be satisfied with exactly where you are; something I've found to be ironically true but frustratingly impractical. Unfortunately I don't believe myself lucky enough to have a yogi readily available for such an endeavour, hence why I thought I'd ask... a few people here have demonstrated that they do have such guidance - and I was hoping some might be able to be passed along. But if what it says about "binding Vayu" is correct, I may already be working along the right path,,, although without any pointers I'm still a bit in the dark.

According to written texts there are eight but I think that with every human being comes infinite shades of 'gray'... I'm not sure of just a exhaustive search has been done, after all, these are 'side effects' and this, by nature, must be as varied as the people manifesting them. I've also noted that the minor chakras are complicet with siddhi-like manifestations, like if there was an energy blockage in the heart chakra, you may find that the energy is shunted to the hands, etc. and those energy centers, once activated can result in different 'side effects'. This can be borne out of the use of certain vegetable and/or mineral 'drugs' that mimic the arousal of the fire snake and its resultant siddhi's. Jus' a thought...IMHO!

QUOTE If you have some new info about the Siddhis I'm very open to reading/listening about them. hmm, well for example there is the siddhi regarding not needing food or drink for several days, without discomfort. Honestly that more sounds more like an act of willpower than a supernatural talent, but the 'without discomfort' bit might differentiate it from simple willpower. An ability which is a little bit like that, which I use 'intermittently', is to skip sleep for abnormally large periods of time (say 48-72 hours or so), without feeling sleepy or tired. There is a gradual drop-off in mental acuity though, and eventually this will become severe enough to demand sleep, but I don't feel any overt need for rest. In other words, I can stay up all night, and feel like dancing on the ceiling the next day (figuratively) instead of being a zombie. This is just due to really excessive personal energy levels. Actually such high levels seem to prevent sleep to an 'unwanted' degree, unless periodically discharged. Somewhat related to that, is that I can (usually) sort of jump-start REM sleep phase before being fully unconscious. So basically I start dreaming, intentionally, a few minutes or seconds before I'm all the way unconscious. This results in getting the required REM portion of sleep out of the way very quickly (you only need a couple hours of it). So I can continue for prolonged periods (longest i've tried is about 8 weeks) with just 3-4 hours of sleep per 24 hour period, without noteworthy discomfort. But even then the body does eventually get to feeling worn down, and needs a day or two of longer rest. It's handy as a time saver, and I abuse it pretty frequently. more days than not I'm going on less than 4 hours sleep. And you really wouldn't guess it by my energy levels. Just last night I napped for about 2.5 hours, and I feel fine. I find that one of the major functions of sleep is to replenish personal energy levels. If you replace that function, then you're left with a somewhat incomplete need for sleep. the brain still needs about 2 hours of REM sleep to reshuffle short term memory tidbits into long term memory. It usually takes a few hours of sleep before you enter into REM sleep, but it can occur almost instantly as well. It's fairly variable. And the body & brain both need a 'refractory period' to reset themselves chemically. And the body itself needs a certain amount of sedate relaxation (but not necessarily "sleep") each day. Of course everyone needs different amounts of sleep. But I used to need 7-8 hours of sleep to function decently, and over a period of less than a year I shifted from that, to needing only 3-4 hours of sleep, or no sleep at all for a day or two. I can think of other siddhi-like abilities which I seem to have manifested on ocassion, but none with the ease & regularity of the above example.
