The basic principle of putting out a candle is to let the woosh of air drain oxygen from the flame by stopping your fist an inch from the candle. There is much higher ability available, however, if one continues to pursue this simple trick. One can, for instance, put out a flame from across the room.
When you stop the fist you are learning to focus your muscles, and thus it is on a physical level. To pursue the technique to a higher level you must not concentrate stopping the muscles, but on letting the mind go. By letting the mind go you unloose your intention, and that is the key to real higher ability.
Try stopping your fist two inches from the candle. The air is not be effected because your fist is too far away. Now, to make the candle flicker and go out, you must rely on intention.
Actually, it is better to start this second stage of training at about a foot, although you may have to experiment, even up to a dozen feet or more, to find the distance that is best for developing your intention. When you flick the fist you must watch the candle. Do not watch it hard, but rather increase your relaxation. Relaxation is the key to making this trick work.
The flesh envelope you are wearing is not your real body, your real body is the bubble of world that you perceive. Thus, you must concentrate on the desire to alter the things that you perceive outside your body. And perceptions work best through space.
Through emptiness, nothingness, space, a vacuum. Not brick, nor wood, nor even air, nor other things which are merely ideas to support the idea of your real body.
To most people my words may seem to be alien, for it strikes to the heart of the matter of our existence in the cosmos. Our existence in that nothingness in which we place the universe is the most important thing...behind the structure of the universe. So still the mind until it is peaceful and calm, and practice launching your intention, and a score of hours later you to see what I am talking about.
