I'm not sure what to think of it, great info  I've got 0 doubts that "magic" exist, having said that, this yogi would definitely beyond normal talking about normal, this was one comment on the page  quote:
It's possible. In my 33 years of existence, I have never farted. I choose to keep this phenomenon to myself, until I receive a sign from alien beings. This revelation will be followed by the release of my new book that unlocks the secrets of the universe including but not limited to "How not to fart", "How to shoot your poop the length of two football fields", and "How to have have an orgasm using only your eyelids and a pinkie toe"Supertek, San Antonio, Texas

i don't know if i believe him or not, pire, but they put him in the hospital to observe him and then when they didn't catch him eating or drinking came up with "you can hide significant amounts of water in a beard like that"..? grasping at straws, are we?? also they only kept him for two weeks, a period plenty of people have gone without food for. why not longer? doesn't seem like they really wanted to test him, or do their due diligence...you think he's hiding water in his beard? check it how hard is that?he is certainly not the first person to make this claim. there was a woman in germany who also went many years without giving any signs of eating or drinking, and yogis before him have done the same... so it's still a "who knows" for the record books...

I went for 70 minutes without food once.It must be pretty easy to watch over someone for weeks and weeks to see if Breatharians really exist. Wouldn't you think? IP: Logged | |
