VIBHUTI PAAD SUTRA 37

                    TE  SAMADHAU  UPSARG  VYUTTHANOE  SIDHYAYAH

THEY (THE POWERS THAT ARE OBTAINED DESCRIBED IN LAST SUTRA)ARE  THE

OBSTACLE TO THE 'SEEDLESS -ASAMPRADNYATA  SAMADHI  AS  THE SIDHHIS OR THE

              POWERS  ARE RELATED  TO MIND -SAMPRADNYAT  SAMADHI

     This Sutra is continuation of the last one . As the meditation continues to get better, one starts getting these powers as have been described in the last Sutra. On e can get trapped in the powers as they give rise to Ego. Think about it , no one is attracted to a Yogi who can teach meditation or who is not interested in day to day life activities . We all flock to the 'YPGI' who can perform the miracles or show the powers -like telling about something that no one else can tell or seeing something that ordinary people can't . So without miracles , no one has respect. So there is a rap or attraction to show off these powers . But these powers are related to the MIND  and the idea of SEEDLESS SAMADHI is to not get entangled with mind. The emotions and the attachments are seeds for disturbances in the Samadhi and will pull one down from getting to the seedless Samadhi. The attachment to the powers or the SIDHHIS leads to downfall and so this must be avoided.
