Sixth patriarch says that one who has seen the nature attains the samādhi of autonomous disportment in the supernormal powers, not that there is no powers.

The person who has seen the nature apprehends [the dharmas] whether he posits them or not. He is autonomous in his going and coming, without stagnation or hindrance. He acts in response to the functions [of students], and he answers in response to their words. Always manifesting125 his nirmāQakāya, he never departs from the self-nature. He attains the samādhi of autonomous disportment in the supernormal powers. This is called seeing the nature

-The Platform Sutra of the Sixth Patriarch Huineng
