When you have begun your Dharma practice, you should definitely notice that your ignorance is decreasing, your aggression is decreasing, your pride is decreasing, your attachment and desire are decreasing, your jealousy and competitiveness are decreasing, and that your mind is becoming more peaceful and tame.
Being able to fly in space or leave your footprint in stone are signs of siddhi, some power, but they are not signs of the ultimate result, which is none other than the pacification of ignorance and the disturbing emotions.
-- Yangthang Rinpoche
