   An ability not commonly held in the general population.   
      
   Some examples are telepath, medium/channeller, species someone   
   negotiator, far-seeing, far-hearing, precog (up to one year), backcog   
   (back to one year), prophetic dreams ability (beginning at one year   
   and beyond), past life regression ability, telekinesis (probably of   
   small amounts), teleportation (probably of small amounts),   
   peacemaker, weatherworking, out of body travel ability, healer,   
   green thumb, animal husbandry, (now) aquaculture, language   
   ability, musical ability, regular diviner ability (including a wide   
   array of subset divination abilities but not dowsing or map   
   dowsing), various such subset divination abilities including   
   card divination, runes, I Ching, Ogham, stick divination, tea leaves,   
   crystal ball, pendulum, mirror scrying, and more, dowsing,   
   map dowsing, hypnosis, wide range magickal special ability   
   (including a wide array of subset abilities at 1/3 strength),   
   and psychedelic drug enghancable ability (who have the   
   wide range while enhanced except their out of body travel   
   and species someone negotiator ability are at full strength),   
   and maybe more (a friend has graphic design ability).   
      
   Supposedly special ability evolution has occurred but I   
   should be able to divine what abilities you held before   
   and now hold, and if you are an assisted shaktipat   
   recipient.   
      
   Of course there are also the assisted shaktipat abilities,   
   which I don’t list above, and which include matchmaking   
   (both personality-wise and sexually, at the same time,   
   neither would be good without the other).   
   Oh wait, I guess the assisted shaktipat does include   
   1/3 strength out of body travel ability. It also   
   includes funnelling, soul alignment, aura viewing,   
   ability to detect gnondnabasedsomeones, and a   
   fair bit more.
