Yo! came upon something intresting?

i was browsing the web and came up to a site that was talking about creating personal elementals through visualization and your will... well what are some of your thoughts out there about this. would it be of help to me in rituals and magik of would it be something kinda like a baby or something and i would have to teach it or something or would it get its know-how from another source like say the collective.. just wandering..
