Prahlad Jani – Man who has not eaten for 70 years! Unbelieveable Amazing Will Power:
A Yogi in India is perplexing a whole lot of people with his amazing feats of will power. Supposedly, he has not drank or taken a bite to eat in 70 years. Prahlad Jani proved it to doctors by staying 15 days in a hospital and was not observed eating, drinking or going to the bathroom. Hell, I went to the bathroom twice while writing this blog. No one knows how he is doing this. I am not sure if this story is a hoax or not but it sure has media legs. He says he was blessed by a goddess at a young age, which gave him special powers. I know that if I was blessed by a goddess at a young age that I would have asked for something a little different than the ability to not eat or drink. I don't know what exactly I would have wished for but my hunch is that the goddess would have run or flown away in disgust.
Prahlad Jani is a 82-year-old yogi who claimed that he has not eaten or taken water for 70 years! This fascinating man is right now being observed and studied by Indian scientists and medical experts. Latest reports indicates that his body and brain is biologically at that of a 25 year old man!
Prahlad Jani claims that he is living as a monk since he was 7 year old and he was blessed by a Goddess. The boon supposedly allow his to receives nectar in his throat and he therefore does not depend on food and water. Sounds a bit like in the movies right?
In 2003, Prahlad Jani agreed to help Indian scientists who wanted to study his body. He was kept for 10 days under surveillance in a hospital in Ahmedabad. No food or water was given to him for consumption. He was given a measured amount of water only to wash his mouth and the water was later analyse to confirm that he did not swallow any of it. The doctors however noticed that urine formed in his bladder but weirdly the urine disappeared after some time.
April 2010 – Prahlad Jani is back at the same hospital to be further examined by a panel of 35 indian scientists from India’s Defense Research & Development Organization. The experiment started on the 28 of April 2010 and video cameras monitor the yogi 24/24.The scientists also aim to study his blood samples during the test and also brain scans to see if there are any unexplained resonance.
Prahlad Jani brain is currently working like that of a 25 year old man due to his yoga practice. Dr. Sudhir Shah, a neurophysician involved in the study, called this a miracle in the science.
A person can live without food and water for three, four, seven, to 12 days; and we have studied during fasting in the past that people have done fasting for 16 or 30 days, but they were taking water after eight days and certainly they pass urine—but this case is a unique phenomenon, said the doctor.
If those scientist manage to get to the source of this yogi’s secret and if what he claimed is true, then this study can help in many areas of the world. Example, where people are left without food or water during a disaster or even by soldier lost on the battle ground.
We shall know more soon.

Prahlad Jani is under 24-hour observation at a hospital in Ahmedabad, India. He says he has fasted for 70 years, but his claim may be impossible to verify.
Jani is under 24-hour observation at the Sterling Hospital in Ahmedabad by scientists working with the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), India's defense research agency, and other medical doctors. Jani is not eating or drinking anything during his hospital stay, while doctors monitor his condition.
Typically, humans can survive for weeks without food, but only a few days without water.
Though the seven-decade-long fast sounds outrageous -- and perhaps impossible to verify -- doctors observing the man at the hospital claim he has already lasted 108 hours without food and water and exhibited remarkable physical characteristics that defy medical conventions.(April 29) -- Could a recluse who claims to have lived without food or drink for 70 years hold the key to "supersoldiers" who can survive and fight in the harshest of conditions?
That's the idea behind one of the more unusual human experiments currently under way in India, involving a holy man who claims he hasn't eaten or drunk anything in years. Prahlad Jani, who has been identified as being in his late 70s or early 80s, might provide clues to helping soldiers who must fight and survive in extreme climates, according to scientists involved in the 15-day study.
"The observation from this study may throw light on human survival without food and water," Dr. Sudhir Shah, who is involved in the study, told reporters. "It may help in working out strategies for survival during natural calamities, extreme stressful conditions and extraterrestrial explorations like future missions to the moon and the Mars."
Prahlad jani is an Indian breatharian. (able to live without food and water)
Biography And Full Detail:
Outline of life Prahlad Jani grew up in Charod village in Mehsana district.[33] According to Jani, he left his home in Rajasthan at the age of seven, and went to live in the jungle.[34] "When he reached the age of 11, he underwent a religious experience during which he became a follower of the Hindu goddess Amba. In her honour, he chose to dress as a female devotee, wearing a red sari-like garment, nose-ring, bangles and crimson flowers in his shoulder-length hair. In return, Jani believes that the goddess has sustained him ever since by feeding him with a lifegiving, invisible "elixir", which has supposedly given him the strength to continue without food or water."[34] "For at least the past 40 years, Jani has been living, hermit-like, in a cave in the jungles close to the Gujarati temple of Ambaji. He rises at 4am, spending most of the day meditating."[34] Amongst his followers and devotees he is commonly known as Mataji ("[a manifestation of] The Great Mother"). This name is also frequently used by Indians (regardless of their religious views) with reference to Prahlad Jani. [edit]2003 Tests Prahlad Jani, an Indian sadhu who claims to have gone without food for decades,[33] spent ten days under strict observation by physicians at Sterling Hospital, Ahmedabad, India, in 2003.[35] The study was led by Dr Sudhir Shah (http://www.sudhirneuro.org/), a well known and ardent proponent of Jain philosophy[36], who studies people claiming spiritual abilities[37], the same doctor who led the study of Hira Ratan Manek. Reportedly, during the observation, he was given only 100 millilitres of water a day to use as mouthwash, which was collected and measured after he used it, to make sure he hadn't consumed any. He was reported to enter Samadhi state of consciousness almost daily during meditation. Throughout the observation, he passed no urine or stool, but doctors say urine appeared to form in the bladder, only to be reabsorbed.[33]Jani claims a goddess sustains him through amrit that filters down through a hole in his palate.[33] According to the hospital's deputy superintendent, Dr. Dinesh Desai, "A series of tests conducted on him show his body mechanism is that of a normal person", but "a hole in the palate is an abnormal phenomenon."[33] [edit]Criticism Critics said, that Jani was not engaged in strenuous exercise during the ten-day trial, and longer trials were not recorded under similarly strict observation. Further, his weight did drop slightly during the 10 days, casting some doubt on his claim to go indefinitely without food. The Indian Rationalist Association has criticised the Indian Ministry of Defence for agreeing to take part in the tests, and for being taken in by a "village fraud".[38] Sanal Edamaruku of the Indian Rationalist Association claimed to have been repeatedly denied sending an independent team to survey the room where Jani was held. He also claimed that "this particular hospital, led by this particular doctor, keeps on making these claims without ever producing evidence or publishing research." The Indian Rationalist Association also said that individuals making similar claims have all reportedly been exposed as frauds.[34] Reports say that a special vomiting gas had been successfully used by IRA to intoxicate one of the previous claimants and force the vomiting effect to expose that there was indigested food in her intestines.[34] [edit]The Discovery Channel Documentary On June 26, 2006, The Discovery Channel aired a documentary called "The Boy with Divine Powers" featuring a 5 minute interview with Prahlad Jani and Dr. Sudhir Shah.[39][40] [edit]2010 Tests As of April 22, 2010, new tests are being conducted on Prahlad Jani under surveillance of 35 doctors and researchers of Defence Institute of Physiology & Allied Science (DIPAS).[41][42][43] Rajiv Sharma, CEO of Sterling Hospital, said, “We wanted to insure Jani’s life. However, due to certain legalities, insurance firms refused our request. Finally, the state government insured his life so that the study could be conducted.”[44] Prahlad Jani was kept for fifteen days, until May 6 (tests were completed on Thursday at 3:30pm), and reportedly did not eat, drink or go to the toilet once during the time. This was apparently shown by blood tests, hormone profiles, MRIs and angiographs. The doctors also claimed to have found that he was "more healthy than someone half his age." Doctors admitted they expected to observe noticeable muscle mass loss, significant dehydration, weight loss and fatigue. Some believed organ failure might occur — yet the mystic remained perfectly healthy.[37] During the study, a protocol of round-the-clock surveillance was followed with the help of CCTV cameras and personal observation. Mataji (Prahlad Jani) was taken out for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasonography (USG), and X-ray examination and exposure to sun under continuous video recording.[45] “During the tests we found that in Prahalad Jani's bladder, the amount of liquid fluctuates even when he does not pass urine,” said a member of the team of medical experts that conducted medical tests. Mataji's lung functions is quite normal, as per reports by Dr. Mukesh Patel and his team. Dr. G. Ilavazahagan, director, DIPAS (a heavily funded branch of India's Defence Research and Development Organisation), said, "The exercise of taking this yogi under a medical scanner is to understand which energy supports his existence, if not food or water. And if at the end of three months by which we plan to come out with observations based on this 15-day check up, we are able to reach to an explanation of this hypothesis - it would tremendously benefit mankind. The observations derived from this case study can help many soldiers, victims of calamities and astronauts - who often have to survive without food or water for long spells."[46] Dr. Urman Dhruv, a physician, said, "We are collecting data on a person who has lived on an alternative pathway compared to an ordinary person. The comparative study of his reports of the tests conducted in 2003 and results of the recent and on-going tests would throw light on the process of aging in Jani's body - which seems to have undergone some type of genetic transformation."[46] [edit]Reaction of Critics and Supporters Despite the strict protocol observed by the Indian military and the involvement of 35 doctors for monitoring of the event, Dr. Michael Van Rooyen (an emergency physician at Harvard’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital, an associate professor at Harvard's medical school, and the director of the Harvard Humanitarian Initiative that focuses on providing aid to people lacking food and water) dismissed the observation results saying, "But that's simply impossible!". "Without food," as Van Rooyen explains, "your body chemistry changes. Profoundly malnourished people auto-digest, they consume their own body's resources. You get liver failure, tachycardia, heart strain. You fall apart.” “You go from being a grape to a raisin,” Van Rooyen says, "and if you didn’t have a heart attack first, you’d die of kidney failure." "You can hold a lot of water in those yogi beards," Van Rooyen asserts. "He must take in water. The human body cannot survive without it."[37] However, Van Rooyen's conclusion remains refuted by the fact that while
Prahlad Jani was allowed to bathe and gargle with water, the doctors had imposed severely restricted measures by initiating a stolid protocol to control the quantity of fluid the holy man spit out.[37] In the recent review, published by The Indian Rationalist Organization on May 18th, 2010, Sanal Edamaruku criticizes that Jani was allowed to move out of the CCTV camera's field of view, which was supposedly revealed by an official video clip. The critic points out that Jani was allowed to receive devotees and could even leave the sealed test room for a sun bath. Accordingly to his opinion, the regular gargling and bathing activities were not sufficiently monitored. [47] However, an examination of the video montage uploaded by IRA and allegedly showing the "loopholes" in the monitoring of the last tests shows, that it is constructed mostly of the clips from the Sanal Edamaruku's own appearances in Indian news channels, with a few repeatedly shown short clips from Jani's CCTV coverage. The clips related to the bathing procedures are from 2003 tests, and those supposedly showing the obstruction by devotees and 'out of camera' episodes are all made by one and the same camera, while the reports explicitly state that there were several cameras to monitor the on-going event from different angles, to be sure in the situations when Prahlad Jani was obstructed by visitors from a certain angle of view.[48] In the article Sanal Edamaruku also hypothesizes that "Prahlad Jani has some influential protectors" and says that "a call from Sterling hospital invited me – live on TV – to join the test the next day", but right before he was going to get on the plane and fly to Gujarat for inspection, he was supposedly "informed that we had to wait for the permission of the "top boss" of the project. ... this permission never came."[49] Accordingly to the journalist reviews, many scholars are not as eager to dismiss the yogi as is Dr. Van Rooyen and Sanal Edamaruku. They explain that breatharians exist and it can be a real, acquired ability. A person can learn to gather energy from sources other than the traditional ones. The term 'breathers' is accepted as the ability to obtain energy from the 'prana' (universal energy source) in the environment.[37]From Wikipedia,tags
