Perhaps persons too are powers that manifest when a Monad
has progressed to a certain/whatever level of degree?

Perhaps all humanity is under the
illusion that All cannot be known?

If I consider myself a siddhi for a moment: Because I AM
manifested, there is a need for this particular kind of
siddhi like me. I don't believe that I can make any siddhis,
because I am a siddhi too, but the one who made me shall make
them for me. So I don't need to care about making siddhis,
because that's just an illusion. I am just a personality-siddhi
of a some degree of some vast entity out there in everywhere.
That which created me must be amused to watch how I move,
talk and write like I was inteded to move, talk and write.

>And experience/history has shown that no two yogins

There are no identical personalities exhibited,
and there are no identical siddhis shown. Logical.

Pardon me for being a little furry animal that runs
after yardsticks and bringing them to His Master... O:-)
