I don't hear Dan making the claim that this was a genuine miracle. All I hear Dan stating is that there are aspects of metabolism and biology that we may not fully understand., and that Yogis may be capable of miracles along these lines in their own right. And there are many examples along those lines. But as usual you will twist whatever is said to suit your purposes. It is the lipstick on the pig thing, and you are the oinker. (-: Missing Mike is up to his old deceptipns. But he fools only himself. He asks a question. I answer. so far, so normal. Thennnnnnnnnnn he springs his ingenous trap. The answer that I have provided is not the belief of his cult. Soooooooooo, it's "crap". It would be funny, if not so tragic. To be trapped inside a prison of your own mind is painful. His preconceived anti-anything notion is hell. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <mjackson74@...> wrote : You are so full of crap - that's no answer - the real deal here is the belief that this guy is so aligned with the Absolute that it sustains him, if that were the case how could his physiology be so refined as to not need food, yet its not so refined that it still ages? I mean if his last meal was 70 year and one day ago, then he had that ability down pat, his body was that refined 7 decades ago - if that were the case he would not have aged either - this man and his handlers are scam artists and you guys can't stand it. Let them submit to an examination by the Indian Rationalist society then lets talk.

Now answer the question - how can the old man have not taken food or water, yet he has aged like everyone else? Where is his magical power? The Yogi Science allows an otherwise normal person (present company excluded) to refine a targeted aspect of his physiology. Can you be for something? Anything? Can you only thrive on hatred? Your turn to answer some of my questions. I have answered dozens of yours; trying to be helpful.

Question: The man in the video is obviously advanced in years. Yet he has not consumed food or drink in 70 years. So how is it that he is so connected to the Home of All Knowledge, the Absolute, he is so amazingly a miracle that his body has aged? Is his siddhi, his connection to all the Laws of Nature not sattvic enough to prevent his body from aging in that time? Is his internal nectar strong and pure enough to enable him to live off of it, yet it can't keep him from aging? I am reminded of the "miracle" of the statue of Jesus in Mumbai that was shown by the Indian rationalist Sanal Edamaruk to be from leaking sewage pipes in the wall behind the statue. This is as incoherent as you comparing Nabby to a Nazi. Saying that I'm from Phoenix. And claiming you were kicked out of the bakery at MUM for no good reason. Mr Mike, YOU KNOW THEY HAD GOOD REASON. Fess up and clear your conscience so you can think more clearly. Just cruising quickly through this conversation I am wondering what it is about human beings that seek to squelch the hopeful, the optimist in others. Why do others feel it necessary to kill the willingness to believe in unusual and interesting phenomena and to attempt to ridicule those who are willing to consider unsubstantiated events possible? Can you tell me that, Dan? Are these people kill joys or are they something else? Why do they seek to bring everything down to the level of the mundane and the likely? Tell me why, New York Dan. Signed, Ann in Distress Dearest Ann, Repair from your distress because the explanation is a simple one and easily understood. When you have it, you will feel lighter, I promise. The motivation behind their rejection of Optimism is this: It is their defense against feeling that THEY HAVE MISSED SOMETHING. That something big has gone by and they do not have it. It is lost forever. Within each Poster here there is a 'sense' that there is More to Be Had. Each express it differently. Share sees More Beauty ahead. Mac enjoys Every Moment, Barry knows there's a great film, just now being conceived, awaiting him... There enters Optimism and the-lack-thereof (some criticism of the optimistic). Maharishi was THE GREATEST DISPLAY OF OPTIMISM IN OUR TIME. I try to follow in his direction.
