Supernatural powers can enable one to propagate the dharma and benefit sentient beings, so can they enable one to engage in negative acts. One who attained supernatural powers through accomplishing the Four dhyanas will not commit negative acts, because they’ve subdued desire and defilements of the desire realm. Whereas the supernatural power attained by the blessing of ghosts and spirits are rather shaky. Therefore, we don’t pursue and admire supernatural powers, nor do we refute or refuse them.
