Gladys Gonzales contacted him and asked him to come to Fairfield, IA. His response was that if we can get a min of 100 folks to attend he would be happy to. He'd be doing this sometime in September, the exact date has not been determined yet. Here's a nice description of his life from www.solarhealing.com Hira Ratan Manek was born on 12th of September 1937 in Bodhavad, India, was raised in Calicut, Kerala, India, where he had his Mechanical Engineering degree from the University of Kerala. After graduation, he joined the family shipping and spice trading business and continued working there until he retired in 1992. After he retired, he began to research and study the ancient practice of sun gazing in which he had been interested in since his childhood. This method was an old but forgotten method, which had been practiced, in the ancient times in many different parts of the world. (see Sun Gazing - History) After working on this method for 3 years, he was able to re-discover the secrets of sun gazing. During his study, he was mainly inspired from the teachings of Lord Mahavir of Jains, who was also practicing this method two thousand and six hundred years ago. Other inspirations for sungazing came from ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Native Americans. Since June 18th, 1995, HRM has and continues to live only on sun energy and water. Occasionally, for hospitality and social purposes, he drinks tea, coffee and buttermilk. Until now, he had three strict fastings, during which he had just sun energy and only water and was under the control and observation of various science and medical teams. The first of these fasting lasted for 211 days during 1995-96 in Calicut, India directed by Dr. C.K. Ramachandran, a medical expert on allopathy and ayurvedic medicine. This was followed by a 411 day fast from 2000-2001 in Ahmedabad, India directed by an International team of 21 medical doctors and scientists led by Dr. Sudhir Shah (Dr. Shah's synopsis report) and Dr. K. K. Shah, the acting President of Indian Medical Association at that time. Dr. Maurie D. Pressman, MD also describes his experience with HRM in an article he wrote and later joined the team for the next observation on HRM. After the excitement of the findings at Ahmadabad, HRM was invited to Thomas Jefferson University and University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia where he underwent a 130 day observation period. This Science/Medical Team wanted to observe and examine his retina, pineal gland and brain, therefore this observation team was led by Dr. Andrew B. Newberg, a leading authority on the brain and also featured in the recent movie "What the Bleep Do We Know", and by Dr. George C. Brenard, the leading authority on the pineal gland. Initial results found that the gray cells in HRM's brain are regenerating. 700 photographs have been taken where the neurons were reported to be active and not dying. Furthermore, the pineal gland was expanding and not shrinking which is typically what happens after mid fifties and its maximum average size is about 6 x 6 mm, however for HRM, it has been measured to be at 8 x 11 mm. There have been many other sungazers who have achieved similar results and have volunteered to be tested, however due to lack of funding and other lifestyle restrictions the results have not been documented. The uniqueness of HRM is that he has surrendered his living body for observation and experiments to the scientific firmament for several extended periods of time. Although scientists and doctors have agreed that hunger is being reduced if not eliminated, due to the complexity of the various brain functions, they have not been able to explain how sungazing has such positive effects on the human mind or body, however more research is underway. In 2002 Hira Ratan Manek gave over 136 lectures in USA and has been invited by government agencies of many countries to help them understand this process at which point he established his International Headquarters in Orlando, Florida. In 2003 HRM gave over 147 lectures in US, Canada, Caribbean and UK and nearly 400 newspapers all around the world have published articles on him. Additionally, many television channels have broadcast stories about him and he was most recently interviewed by BBC World Services. In December, 2003 HRM traveled to India for 4 months and delivered 70 lectures to various cities such as Chennai, Pondicherry, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Baroda, Palitana, Kachchh, Jodhpur, Pali, Balotara, Lucknow, Delhi, Chadigarh, and other areas. Additional lectures in Delhi , Mumbai, Lucknow and Dhadigarh were sponsored by Times Foundation whose Chairperson Smt. Indujain has taken a keen interest in spreading the universally popular HRM Phenomenon (Suryanamaskar). Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Founder of Art of Living Foundation and Surya Foundation of International Naturopath Organization and Salila Tiwari doctor of Indian Prime Minister Vajpayeeji have also taken a keen interest in HRM Phenomena spreading all over the world. It was at the house of Salila Tiwari that ZTV interviewed HRM and where Surya Foundation made a detailed film on him. ZTV released the HRM interview on March 25th in their Hindustan Hamara Program and has repeated it many times since then. BBC World Services also repeatedly broadcast HRM's interview on July 22nd, 2003. Other media groups from all over the world have reported on HRM including those from Europe, Russia and Gulf Countries. There are now Solar Healing Centers coming up all over the world and facilitating a global group of HRM Phenomenon practitioners. For those who are interested in learning more about the sun energy is an effective healing source, HRM recommends these books: - "Light, Medicine of the Future", by Jacob Lieberman - "The Healing Sun: Sunlight and Health in the 21st Century", by Richard Hobday.
