This program
discusses the possibility of breatharianism, or living without eating
food, and is not a full instruction. For your safety, please do not
attempt to cease eating without proper expert guidance.HOST:
In script-xures, the human body is often referred to as the temple of
God. Yet, it is quite an uncommon privilege for any soul to attain this
sacred abode that houses the Divine, as it is truly a blessing to be
reborn as a human being. On several occasions, Supreme Master Ching Hai
has spoken about the rarity of this phenomenon:
Supreme Master Ching Hai: To be
reincarnated in the human world is hard. You have to have enough Human
Quality. You have to have affinity with the parents and with the
society, with the people around which you are born. Very difficult.
To
be a human, you need some merit. You have done something good in the
past in order to be able to pick a human birth.
HOST: As a living
temple of God, the human body is fully equipped with miraculous wonders
that can be awakened in those who are spiritually conscious and have
complete faith in the Creator of all life.
Inedia, Latin for
“fasting,” is the human ability to live without food. Since time
immemorial, there have always been individuals who can sustain
themselves on prana, or the vital life force. Through the grace of the
Providence, inediates, people who follow a food-free lifestyle, can draw
the energy from nature to nourish themselves:
Supreme Master Ching Hai: They live
on the chi from the ground, or from the forest, and from the sun and
from the air. They make use of all that. Or they live on love, on faith
alone.
HOST: These individuals are known as breatharians,
solarians, waterians, or pranarians, and they come from all walks of
life, from different cultures, and all corners of the world.
Indeed,
the possibilities and miracles in this life as our benevolent Creator
has designed for us are endless; we only need to connect within to
recognize our abounding largess as God’s children.
Supreme Master
Ching Hai has lovingly recommended a weekly series on Supreme Master
Television to introduce those individuals of the past and present who
have chosen to live food-free on Earth. May their spiritual stories
enthrall you; may hearts be opened, and horizons be expanded.
We now invite you to join us for part 1 of our 3-part program, “Elitom Ben Yisrael: Challenges in Transitioning to Breatharianism” on Between Master and Disciples.
