Super powers


Somebody asked ..... what will you do with super powers!...
quote: “What will you do if one morning you wake up and find your having superpowers?
superpowers like spiderman, batman, hulk or any other....”
(I was wondering.... are there not people who are already 'super-powers'... it is just that they are heads of a few nations!... Economic super-powers, military super-powers, etc... Maybe we do not read papers that often.... but what about that 'domestic-super-power?'.... so subtle, so powerful, that this super-power even lets you enjoy an illusion of 'freedom' too, at times! )...
....

A 'spiritual worm' that I am... like those 'book-worms'... I keep crawing only within those spiritual related thoughts... so every thought, every action, ..... everything,..... gets polarised into that kind of 'orientation'! ... I could suddenly 'see' those siddhis walking in, suddenly one morning, and the question.... what will you do with these siddhis?
....


Nothing much.... really.... it is just there... the fun of life is snatched away now... the freedom is gone.... we have to be a bit careful here onwards.... (Suppose, we have a few crores of rupees, we take it to a village, a closely knitted group of people... give this money into the hands of just a few of them... we have effectively toppled the 'balance' of relationship between the people of that village!... This is what a super-power is going to do in the hands of a person, who does not know what to do with it!)...

Please see... just one small power.... like, we 'already know' the end of every story that we are going to read, view, see, etc (Movies, TV serials, Novels, etc...)... We no more enjoy the story... the going-through-the story.... We enjoy teasing others, 'I know something .... that you do not know'... initially, others are amazed, and appreciate us, we enjoy that super-ride, on their appreciation, admiration, that extra-respect, etc... Then, when those 'others' want to really enjoy a suspense movie, they would take care to make sure that we are no where inside that theatre... no remote corner even... no chance meeting during that brief interval even!
...
I enjoyed looking at that question..... anyway..... the memory is still fresh.... that miniature experience of a 'super-power'... when the first salary came in our life... that's a lot of money... The very first day, it is thrill... we don't know what we are going to do with so much money! That was the 'mind' of 'that' day.... Today, logic has superceded our innocent emotions! Money has gone inside the 'head' too, instead of remaining just inside the wallet!

the link, the question, and my sub-answer...(opposite of super-answer)...

My answer:
A huge response-ability dawns!
To play dumb about these powers!
(Ask the expert for that moral strength to keep quiet ... in spite of having such powers... Now is the real need to pray to God... give me strength, not to use these stupid powers, and spoil the chances of others to grow spiritually.... It is the difficulties of life that makes a person turn inwards!)
