What is the longest you
have gone without a piece of food or a glass of water? A holy man in
India claims that he has not eaten or drank anything for 75 years! Prahlad Jani
is the 83-year old man who lives in a cave near Amba JI Temple without any kind
of food or water since the age of 7. Why in the world would a man choose
to not eat for such a long time, and how is he still alive?
Mr. Jani claims that he
has left his home at the age of seven searching for spiritual mystery when he
was blessed by 3 Hindu goddesses. Here is the story in his own words:
“Three goddesses appeared
to me and bade me to follow. Ma Kali, Ma Lakshmi, and Ma Saraswati. I
consented, prepared myself, and asked: ‘What about my food?’ They each put a
finger on my lip and said ‘You need not be concerned about food ever again’. I
was 7, and from that day I stopped eating and drinking.”
Doctors put him to the test
Ever since that blessing,
Prahlad Jani claims that he has gained his sustenance from the nectar that
filters down through a hole in his palate. A bunch of bogus, right?
Maybe not.
His claims were
scientifically studied by a team of 30 specialists during three weeks of a
variety of tests at a hospital.
They took him into then
Sterling Hospital in Ahmedabad, India. They put him under 24 hour observation
in front of cameras and found out that he did not take any kind of food or
water in the 15 days that he was in hospital. No food or water for half
that time would be a sure death for anybody else. And he did not pass urine or
stool either.
The doctors were
completely surprised at this miracle. “We believe that the sadhu Prahlad Jani’s
body went through biological transformation as a result of meditation and
powerful yoga in a completely natural environment that he stays.” said
neurologist Dr. Sudhir Shah.
The doctors in India are
guessing that this phenomenon relates the Amrita Chakra (third eye chakra), as
Hindu vedas speak of it being able to produce a divine nectar which sustains
life.
What’s more is that his
brain resembles that of a 25 year old man at 83 years of age. His practices
have somehow miraculously transformed the biological functioning of his body,
which no longer needs energy and sustenance from external material sources.
Is this even possible?
This sounds crazy, but
let’s think about it for a minute. What do we need from food? The
minerals, which are made out of molecules, which are made out of atoms, which
are made out of quarks, which are made out of superstrings, which is ultimately
part of the Unified Field or Superstring Field.
At a fundamental level of
nature, nutrition is really just vibrating strings of non-local energy.
Could he somehow be receiving this information somehow without the need to
physically ingest food? Here is a news report by the doctors who observed
him at the hospital:
