REAL Schools, as opposed to charlatans, pseudo-hermtic schools, delusional cults, etc. are not keen on talking about "powers". That does not mean they do not believe in such, but quite simply ANYTHING should be tested and experienced first-hand. At the same time, though, I think it is equally important to have a completely & truly open mind, included one that ackowledge this simple fact:modern science does not have all the answers. I do not subscribe to any "New Age" form of thought, if it can be called that way, but I find "scientism" just as dull.
