Just wondering is anyone trying to interpret esoteric practices with science? I have a long held vision of eventually developing super-normal abilities, particularly mind influencing matter (pk), but also studying science so I can effectively explain as well as demonstrate what it is I'm doing and how. This is my vision. I'm led to believe this is an egoic aspiration but I'm compelled nonetheless. I don't want to just know these things in religious terminology either. Science is the institute of knowledge for our society and so I think communicating Taoist methods of energy cultivation in scientific terms would have a cultural impact that the West may have never seen as of yet. Believe me though, I'm just a pup and haven't yet started the work so I'm looking for guidance. Can anyone nudge me to the most straightforward school or system of Nei-Kung? I'm just experimenting with what little knowledge I have. I'm getting something but I know it's not enough for what I want and I do know I need the right conceptual framework for real long term results or I'll be wasting my time, practicing incorrectly. I'm willing to go anywhere. Any sincere direction would be greatly appreciated, Thank you.

So, I'm currently reading a book by Philip Bonewits called Real Magic. On page 49 he briefly mentions CPK Assimilation (CPK = Cellular PsychoKinesis), thus; "For those of you who regularly perform faith-healing or curing rituals, there is an interesting phenomenon you should be aware of. It is an overlap between CPK and telepathy in which the disease is absorbed accidentally or deliberately by the healer, who exhibits the same symptoms for a short time, after which the disease vanishes from the patient and healer alike. This.....can be very dangerous to the practitioner. [....]Since if rules are broken, the healer may not be able to get rid of the disease assimilated" Does anyone have any experience with this?
