Did the Mani mantra develops your psychic power?

Was wondering after chanting Aum Mani Padme Hum for a year what it really did to your life and your psyche?

Did it help develop your psychic powers?

Om Mani Peme Hung is the Tibetan mantra which is part of the practice relating to the meditational deity Chenrezi:

I chanted it for years, and it helped to temporarily pacify discursive thoughts & conflicting emotions. However we need to use other methods of investigation into the nature of our minds than just chanting deity mantras.(which weren't actually taught by the historical Buddha)

The purpose of this mantra isn't to develop personal psychic powers, its to develop loving kindness & compassion .
