'Starving yogi' astounds Indian scientists


News report by AFP on an 83-year-old Indian holy man who says he has spent 70 years without food or water has astounded a team of military doctors. They conducted a 2 week intensive medical observation on him. Prahlad Jani spent a fortnight in a hospital in the western India state of Gujarat under constant surveillance from a team of 30 medics equipped with cameras and closed circuit television. During the period, he neither ate nor drank and did not go to the toilet.

Did they find an answer to his survival skills? No.
"We still do not know how he survives," neurologist Sudhir Shah told reporters after the end of the experiment. "It is still a mystery what kind of phenomenon this is."
Did they offer an explanation? Yes.
"If Jani does not derive energy from food and water, he must be doing that from energy sources around him, sunlight being one," said Shah.
"As medical practitioners we cannot shut our eyes to possibilities, to a source of energy other than calories."

Wow! That is commendable. To admit that the only possible conclusion is another source of energy. This came from the mouth of a neurologist who is a scientist a medical officer! Surely he will be burn at the stake for such blasphemous comments by the medical fraternity. But you say his conclusion was from scientific, medical observation. So what, anything that goes against the sacred medical teachings of medical science need to be debunk regardless of evidence. Maybe as one Dr.Van Rooyen sarcastically implied, "You can hold a lot of water in those yogi beards. A sneaky yogi for certain," he said. "He MUST take in water." You mean 30 medics with hi-tech CCTV and equipment could not detect a cheat or are they co-conspirators that are willing to lose their medical license for a joke and they missed April the 1st. Another sceptic said, 'He might be hiding a burger under his beard!" Now that would make a good McDonald advertisement. Hello, advert boys -WAKE UP.
So what other energy sources around him can we think of? 'Sunlight' the doctor suggested. No, he did not mean photosynthesis or his skin colour will match the incredible hulk.
The answer is :
We are basically energy beings made up of atoms and vibrating electrons and neutrons. We have a body that is described as bio-electomagnetic. Our brains fire electrical impulses through neurotransmitters that links to networks of electrical pathways. There exist a close circuit energy system 'meridians' in our body that helps our body to function at optimal health. Disturbance of these circuits will disrupt our health system. Energy healers using reiki, qigong, pranic healing, acupuncture and many other new therapies like energy psychology (www.eftwonder.com) have found a faster non invasive form of healing by accessing these meridians. As energy beings we are able to absorb electromagnetic energy around us from the earth's energy field or space which bombards earth with enormous quantities of energy like the sun. There will come a time when medical science will come to 'discover' it and maybe taking credit for it. They may probably attach some other medically bombastic name to disguised it. They are so shy and it takes time to be associated with energy healing. Give them space.
