I`m not coming from any presuppositional angle on this, but I would be interested to hear people`s opinions about this man:

Mr Jani, who claims to have left home aged seven and lived as a wandering sadhu or holy man in Rajasthan, is regarded as a breatharian who can live on a 'spiritual life-force' alone. He believes he is sustained by a goddess who pours an 'elixir' through a hole in his palate.
Well, IF it's true,
I don't think the power comes from God. And his eyes are pretty freaky, too.

Hello Ian & Suzana!
Uh....
Hard to believe an infant can meditate.
Nor grow into adulthood (leave alone toddlerhood) without food or water.
An adult might be able to do this for a certain extended period of time.
But this guy's story? I don't believe it.
"Religious sensationalism" isn't limited to TV evangelists!
This man's in it for his own glory.
Bogus.

If he`s purely bogus, then he`s fooling a lot of people who know a lot about the human body.
I guess if he keeps holding out and holding out then one might have to take him seriously. I`m inclined to agree with Suzana though.
