Dipa Ma / six higher powers: five mundane powers

https://dipama.com/essential-quotes/
The five mundane powers are
found in all the shamanic and yogic traditions, and occur spontaneously to a
lesser extent in some individuals. They are said to be:
Supernatural powers: the ability to transform one of the four basic
elements of the physical world (earth, air, fire, and water) into
another.
Divine ear: the ability to hear sounds near and far, on earth and in
other realms.
Divine eye: The ability to see into the future, to see things near and
far, on earth and in other realms.
Knowledge of one’s former births and the previous births of others.
Knowledge of the states of mind of other beings; that is, the ability to
“read” or know the minds of others.
According to Munindra, Dipa Ma demonstrated each of these powers to him.
The following accounts are based on Munindra’s recollections. “You may
not believe it,” he said, “but it’s true.”
Once Munindra was in his room when he noticed something unusual in the
sky outside his window. He looked out and saw Dipa Ma in the air near the
tops of the trees, grinning at him and playing in a room she had built in the
sky. By changing the air element into the earth element, she had been able to
create a structure in mid-air.
Changing denser elements to air produced only slightly less astonishing
occurrences. Sometimes Dipa Ma and her sister Hema arrived for interviews
with Munindra by spontaneously appearing in his room, and Dipa Ma
occasionally left by walking through the closed door. If she was feeling
especially playful, she might rise from her chair, go to the nearest wall, and
walk right through it.
Dipa Ma learned to cook food by making the fire element come out of her
hands. She could also change the earth element into the water element,
which she demonstrated to Munindra by diving into a patch of ground and
emerging with her clothes and hair wet. If she had to walk alone at night,
Dipa Ma could duplicate her body, creating a companion for herself so that
no one would bother her.
Dipa Ma’s abilities in this regard were once tested by a third party.
Munindra knew a professor of Ancient Indian History at Magadh University
who was skeptical about psychic powers. Munindra offered to prove the
existence of such powers, and the two of them set up an experiment. The
professor posted a trusted graduate student in a room where Dipa Ma was
meditating to watch and make sure she didn’t leave the room. On the
appointed day, the student verified that Dipa Ma never left her meditation
posture, and yet, at the very same time, she appeared at the professor’s office
ten miles away and had a conversation with him.
