The attainment of Nirvana and the development of supernatural forces in Buddhism

The Pali Canon is very controversial with historians and major supporters. Some think the exact words of the Buddha from the fifth century BC, moved into the oral tradition of several centuries and eventually put in written form. Others believe it has the additions and deletions by the followers of the first century BC when it was written. It contains three parts called pikitas, this translates to the word, baskets. The collection is called Tipitaka meaning three baskets.
The three works in the Vinaya Pitaka, the Sutta Pitaka and Abhidhamma Pitaka. The Vinaya Pitaka addresses the code of conduct for monks and nuns of the Buddhist faith. It contains the rules for the Buddha necessary.
The Sutta Pitaka has five sections called Nikaya. This point is accepted by all parts of Buddhism as the faith of work of Buddha. These chapters are in prose.
The last category, the Abhidhamma Pitaka, this book focuses on the principles underlying the other Pitaka. Describes the spirit, material, and their relationship.
Some of these supernatural forces to achieve Buddha describes read his thoughts, the ability to speak to the dead, see the previous life, pass through solid objects such as walls, walk on water, tele-transportation, travel to different areas of life and others. Moggallana (Maudgalyayana), one of the disciples of Buddha, a large number of powers and more prolonged than the others. He was stoned to death. When people have come to wonder why the Buddha Moggallana not because he had the supernatural power to do, the Buddha replied that Moggallana had his previous life, where he killed his parents and decided that such deaths has been mounting. Supernatural forces can not protect your karma, they are only picked up skills on the road to perfection.
This ability to develop skills, while training of the mind in perfection is one of great interest for many. This shows that the Buddha felt that these powers are quite normal for the disciplined mind and available for everyone. In effect, the information contained in other religions and traditions, this is no different than the faith of many ancient cultures. The difference is that the Buddha, describing the stages of the journey of Nirvana, also shows the way to achieve these skills.
The Abhidhamma Pitaka describes the steps for success and shows how to set them. Buddha however, warns that the supernatural exploits were not the final result. If the student is sincere in trying to a better person, it will not find them nearly as exciting as her mind is sufficiently developed to achieve competence. At the moment, the novelty is overcome and the powers are used to help others. As for the fight trying to grow a business, the money on the road is a product not as important as the project's success.
Many of the skills that the centuries have been described as the powers of the gods, Buddha believed the powers of man. His detailed sketches in the Pali Canon opens the way for the necessary knowledge and provide a map for those seeking training. The most interesting is a firm believer follows others interested in the supernatural. It is these opportunities that are possessed by all and with the right training, distributed and operated for use in everyday life.
