His moms cooking must have been terrible for him to stop eating at age 13.

Prahlad Jani says he has survived without food and water for more than seven decades. India's Defense Institute of Physiology & Allied Science is researching the 83-year-old's claims.

I for one am interested to see how this works out. One would assume this is total bullshit but when you look at what abilities people have achieved through extensive meditation and training, its not that unbelievable for me that he might be able to control his bodily functions to a degree where he can get all the nutrition he needs from sunlight and the humidity. Still, i dont think hes gone 70 years without eating and drinking.

Is there any living beeing on the planet that can survive without any water ? I dont think so. So why should we be able to do that ? No way this is true.

How can you actually believe the words that you are saying? All of the things people have been proven to be able to do through meditation are at least reasonable. It's mostly just being able to control heart rate/blood pressure/state of mind/etc. None of it has ever done anything like allow us to obtain nutrients in ways that we cannot do. How exactly is meditation going to cause us to get nutrition from sunlight? Our body has absolutely no mechanism for turning sunlight into every essential nutrient. This is just blatantly retarded, and basic physics shows us that it's not possible to survive without taking in a certain number of calories.

Do I think that through meditation we can control metabolism and slow down many bodily functions and thus decrease our need for food? Yes, that's possible, but that's completely different than what this man claims to be doing.

This tbh,

Most likely it's some sort of scam, but you don't have to look down on people who believe otherwise >_>
