As I've never seen anyone who claimed to be taught by the Masters have any 
abilities at all (including the ability to think consecutively) I would doubt 
they have much to impart, or the people who claim such things have had an real 
contact with anything other than their own imaginations. The self-taught, or 
taught by people who can be seen, tend to have abilities that last and some of 
them can do the most amazing things. I work with a woman who can blow up 
computers by remote influence, for example and we have done some very interesting 
work together over the years. (Of course most it is does not involve blowing 
things up, thank badness. That stuff can run into real money after a while.)
