I think one could achieve extraordinary results by extraordinary methods, but I doubt (that is: am not convinced) that one could thus achieve paranormal effects. Is that what you mean?
Umm - well you can always check out qigong masters to see if they have paranormal abilities. I saw a poster on a telephone pole for qigong master Effie P. Chow. I was so skeptical I called up to ask for a reduction in the admission fee. She gave me half off - I could hear her in the background as another lady answered. So I showed up at St. Mary's University in Minneapolis in 1995 - with my girlfriend who lived with me. Effie P. Chow then said she filled the room with qi energy - she had people walk down the center aisle towards her to feel the energy. Then she had us make "qi balls" and push our palms together. Amazingly I felt strong magnetic force pushing my hands apart. Now granted I was - only 24 years old - and I rode a bicycle up a steep big hill everyday - or in the morning on the way home from work. I worked the night shift - so didn't spend that much time with the GF. I also ate a vegan diet. So I was pretty healthy. My GF had health problems so she didn't really feel anything I guess.
Then as almost everyone was gone - this security guard wandered in from the front of the room and said, "Just wondering what is going on in here because the fuse got blown in the room behind you." And she said that to the qigong master. haha. So Effie P. Chow lives in San Francisco and so in 1996 I got carpal tunnel payment as workers comp and it was only $600 to I used it to flew to visit a high school Chinese born American friend - he just wanted to party. I didn't have the money to see effie P. Chow even though I was in SF. haha. I did go to the new library, found a new qigong book. Then he rented a car and drove me up to Portland, OR. We went to that big bookstore - there I found John Beauleiu's book - he's a PH.D. who teaches Biosonic healing. In the book he says how the Perfect Fifth is Yang and the Perfect Fourth is Yin. Since my specialty was music theory with a focus on Pythagorean philosophy - that got me hooked.
So I kept researching. I went to a Tibetan monk in 1997 - or 1998 - and after listening to him intently I went home and felt what I thought was a headache - until I realized it was only felt precisely in the center of my forehead and was not pain but rather a kind of magnetic force. Then I started doing Yan Xin qigong with the Chinese immigrant community and they showed a documentary made by the chinese government - Yan Xin Superman. I have it in my playlist of qigong paranormal abilities being displayed. Only it's in Chinese - so they translated for me and the one other Westerner in the room. Some Canadian Chinese visited to teach Yan Xin and set up a microphone in the audience to ask if we felt anything. I reported I had felt strong heat in the stomach - after the meditation. They were glad to hear that.
So that was a start into the experience. Then Chunyi Lin, qigong master, gave a talk to my graduate class on spiritual healing, taught by my advisor a Jesuit priest - through the center for spiritual healing at the University of Minnesota. I sat right up front. I could feel heat emanating from him. But what really intrigued me was he seemed to have read my mind because he then send - "and sometimes people can feel heat from me if they are close to me." hmmm. And I had read. Dr. DAvid Eisenberg's book on Encountering Qi in China - a Harvard Medical doctor. He has a photo of a qigong master who demonstrated telekinesis to him - and that qigong master looked just like Chunyi Lin. I mean the body build. So also my housemate had already told me that she had meditated with Chunyi Lin at the community college - just her and the philosophy professor and Chunyi Lin. This intrigued me. She was very beautiful and I had fallen in love with her but our relationship remained Platonic.
Anyway - so since then Chunyi Lin has done "gold standard" science proving that "external qi" can heal chronic pain that Western medicine can treat. Dr. Anne Vincent of the Mayo Clinic called the results, "extremely impressive." It is randomized controlled science aka "gold standard" published in a peer-reviewed journal. Here is the best playlist - in my view - of paranormal powers being demonstrated from mainly qigong but also other nonwestern shamanic training.
Qigong Master Chunyi Lin - someone PM'd me recently to let me know they read a comment I posted 7 or 8 years ago on someone else's blog - and so finally took me up on it and drove up to the qigong center after first trying out a phone healing. The person said the energy was almost too powerful in person! haha. Then let Chunyi Lin know that "Drew" was the person who told them... "Ah Drew" he said with a funny smile on his face.... haha.
