I love that show! It's been saved on my sky+ for over a year now, and never fails to enthrall anyone who views it.

Always had a fascination with meditation, nirvana, mysticism etc. but never really thought there was any basis to it. But having read some books, like the Field by Lynne McTaggart, and seeing the recent developments in the sciences, as in the discoveries of the various dimensions and fields, perhaps we are on the verge of a unification of our understanding of the universe.

Imagine that - if we had a scientific framework that could explain everything from ESP, reincarnation, psychic and ghostly phenomena, intuition, etc. etc. Now that would be a fine day indeed.

Back on topic, does anyone know what the latest is on Buddha Boy. Last I heard he had disappeared into the forest, ostensibly to escape the crowds and get some peace, there were also rumours going around that he had been murdered.

Let's hope it's not the latter.

i was just wondering about buddha boy the other day and thought to myself, "i should search ATS to see if there have been any recent threads about him." synchronicity, my friend!

thanks for the link. this is truly fascinating stuff. let's hope the young buddha continues to thrive and that we catch wind of him soon.

Yes.

I don't think any of the size 0 actress & models have eaten since they were 12 either.

If you see them in real life they look like lollipops. Big head on a tiny stick.

"There was one inscription on the inner chamber wall of the ancients...YOU WILL EAT AS YOU BREATHE."
- Anastasia, Ringing Cedars Series

can be interpreted in reference to Yeshua's statement of worry not where your food comes from...however,
Anastasia says, 'eat as you breathe', means that early man in the days of pristine earth, were able to live off the pollen in the air which they breathed and which carried special energy of the earth and sun.

anastasia - read it


LOVE

Humans don't have to eat.

Humans can do some miraculous things if they get in tuned with the universal source and energy.

There was an article somewhere about a guy who was 300 years old, but he looked like any 80 year old. They did tests on him and everything, and he could recall a lot of stuff from back in the day.

It was pretty interesting.

Yes, and there was also a sect that pretend to teach people how to survive on thin air for hard-earned cash. Needless to say they got in trouble with the law after some of their initiates died while learning to survive on thin air and they got rightly sued. I hope they are still rotting in some godforsaken jail-house.

Sorry Double post

Fascinating stuff.
Even to survive the 10 days under observation without water was in itself amazing,but decades...wow.
The guy looked to be in good health for an 80something year old.
It must be something to do with his state of mind/meditational skills,because its certainly not "normal",otherwise there would be no such thing as starvation/famine.

Imagine the lives he could save if he could teach his ability to others...

It does not make sense the way he can sustain himself without water,it just goes against everything we are taught in the "modern" world.
Shows you little we know.
I wonder what conclusions the scientists and doctors reached from observing this man-that would be interesting to find out.

Flagged

If not a forgery of some kind, that guy is a plant. I've heard about prana-nourishment, taking nutrients from the air. But then again, this is a video clip and in television, they can claim everything it seems (which isn't necessarily true).

However, I don't want to make an opinion whether this is a forgery or not.

This should just include the ticker "Don't try this at home"

All the best,

Hahaha that old man has those "doctors" going so bad it's hilarious.

He was never under "observation", all those people clearly have biases towards him. They even let him bathe! Even if he didn't drink any, which I'm sure he did, you'd lose volume through the soft tissues and body hair, not to mention he's splashing it everywhere, so to say it was measured before and after is BS; these people aren't even bordering on being scientists.

If he was brought to Europe or North America, and actually put in a room with cameras, no water, no "showers", he'd be dead inside of 4 days.

"Buddha Boy" has started talking, so far I've read 2 statements from him. He's doing a protest about a festival they do once ever 5 years or something where they kill hundreds of animals. Think the festival is mid November.

Note that there are two different individuals being spoken of. Buddha Boy is only mentioned briefly at the beginning of the linked clip. Most of what we're seeing is about Prahlad Jani. Different people.

If you want more on Buddha Boy, the entire video the clip is from is available here. The doctor being interviewed in the clip is Dr Sudhir V. Shah.

This is a magic trick.... he makes his money just like david copperfield and chris angel.

Whats really sad is that people like you eat it up without a single question and then proclaim it to others as undeniable truth... just like the christians and their peice of ark wood thats fake.. This is why our world is in such bad shape.... to many sheep ready to be mislead.

do a research & see where you will end up..... india's ministry of defense & nasa

thanks every1 for commenting

I saw the documentary about a week ago, interesting stuff. There is only one "Buddha Boy" lol, that guy in the short clip is ancient hence why he can't be a "boy"...



I was responding to this in my previous comment. When he disappeared some thought he was kidnapped but it looks like he's doing well.

People have been doing it for thousands of years, and to say that Indian labs are inadequate to conduct a simple task as such is ignorant. And as for biases, I recommend a trip to india, or even thailand for that matter because youll soon find out that unlike western culture spitituality surpasses everything else. The scientists there wouldnt take to kindly to a fraudulent 'holy man', and even the 'acclaimed' american scienctists were there to observe the man so, that should clear up any biases...

Often people allow themselves to be fooled by what they HOPE is true. India, China, and America are prefect examples of this. Im sorry that its gonna be a really really long time before you understand that these people are liars and why..................

I've just got to read more about this guy! Where and when did you read this article? Thanks.
