AN 83-year-old Indian holy man who claimed he spent seven decades without
food or water astounded a team of military doctors who studied him during a
two-week observation period.
Prahlad Jani, 83, spent two weeks in a hospital in the western Indian state
of Gujarat under constant surveillance from a team of 30 medical staff
equipped with cameras and CCTV.

During the period, he did not eat, drink or go to the bathroom.

"We still do not know how he survives," neurologist Sudhir Shah said after
the end of the experiment. "It is still a mystery what kind of phenomenon
this is."

The long-haired and bearded yogi was sealed in a hospital in the city of
Ahmedabad in a study initiated by India's Defence Research and Development
Organisation (DRDO), the national defence and military research institute.

The DRDO hopes that the findings, set to be released in greater detail in
several months, could help soldiers survive without food and drink, assist
astronauts or even save the lives of people trapped in natural disasters.

"(Mr Jani's) only contact with any kind of fluid was during gargling and
bathing periodically during the period," G Ilavazahagan, the director of
India's Defence Institute of Physiology and Allied Sciences, said.

Mr Jani returned to his village near Ambaji in northern Gujarat after
leaving the hospital, where he will resume his routine of yoga and
meditation. He said he was blessed by a goddess at a young age, which gave
him special powers.

During the 15-day observation, which ended on Thursday, the doctors took
scans of Mr Jani's organs, brain and blood vessels, and conducted tests on
his heart, lungs and memory capacity.

"If (Mr) Jani does not derive energy from food and water, he must be doing
that from energy sources around him, sunlight being one," said Dr Shah.

"As medical practitioners, we cannot shut our eyes to possibilities, to a
source of energy other than calories."
