Confirmed By Doctors!"},"content":{"rendered":"

An Indian holy man has claimed that he has not eaten or drunk anything in 75 years, and has the medical evidence to prove it! Prahlad Jani, 83, who lives in a cave near Amba Ji Temple, claims to have gone without food<\/a> or water since the age of 7. Prahlad says that he made the decision to permanently fast after being visited by 3 Hindu goddesses:<\/p>\n

\u201cThree goddesses appeared to me and bade me to follow. Ma Kali, Ma Lakshmi, and Ma Saraswati. I consented, prepared myself, and asked: \u2018What about my food?\u2019 They each put a finger on my lip and said \u2018You need not be concerned about food ever again\u2019. I was 7, and from that day I stopped eating and drinking.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Since the blessing, Prahlad says that he has been sustained by nectar that filters down through a hole in his palate.<\/p>\n

\"Holy<\/p>\n

Now, his claims have been put to the test by a team of doctors at Sterling Hospital in Ahmedabad. The team kept Prahlad in for three weeks, carrying out a number of tests and monitoring his behavior closely. Their observations determined that he had not consumed any food or water in the period that he was in the hospital.<\/p>\n

But how? Neurologist Dr.\u00a0Sudhir Shah stated that \u201cWe believe that Prahlad Jani\u2019s body went through biological transformation as a result of meditation and powerful yoga in the completely natural environment that he stays.\u201d The specialists believe that Prahlad is producing a nectar through his Amrita Chakra (third eye chakra), which he uses for sustenance. They also discovered that his brain more closely resembles that of a 25 year old, rather than that of an elderly man.<\/p>\n
