SUNGAZING

We have a super computer in our bodies given to us by the nature, which is our brain. HRM (Hira Ratan Manek) calls it the �brainutor�. The brain is more powerful than the most advanced super computer. Each and every human being is gifted with innumerable talents, and infinite inherent powers by nature.

Sun Gazing Process

Individuals should never underestimate themselves. Everyone is gifted. If we make use of these powers we can take ourselves to great levels. Unfortunately, these infinite inherent powers are programmed in that part of the brain that is largely dormant and goes unused.

Even medical science agrees we hardly make use of the brain but about 5-7% � the most brilliant of humans like Albert Einstein is reported to have used only about 32% of their brains. If we can activate the human brain and awaken these infinite powers inherent in ourselves then we can raise ourselves to higher levels. We can achieve any results we want.

In order to operate the brain effectively, it needs to be activated. Being a holistic entity it needs a holistic power supply.

Sun energy is the source that powers the brain, which can enter and leave the human body or the brain only through one organ that is the human eye. Eyes are the Sun Energy�s entry door to the human brain.Sun Gazing Process

They are also known as the windows of the soul.

Recent research has found out that the eye has many functions other than vision.

And more information is continuing to be revealed about the functions of the eye.

The eyes are complex organs and they have 5 billion parts much more than a spacecraft that has about 6-7 million parts.

By this, you can see the immense capacity of the human eye. HRM asserts that the rainbow is in the eye not in the sky. The seven colors of the sun is only the reflection of what is in the eye. We can create a rainbow anytime we want � go to the garden, just observe below a source of flowing water as the sun moves above.

There you will see the rainbow. Eye can receive the entire spectrum of the sunlight. It�s like having a glass window. Eye is the perfect instrument to receive all the colors of the rainbow. Since eyes are delicate parts of the body, we have to use them in such a way that they serve our purposes without getting damaged. Present day teachings and ideas such as don�t look at the sunlight at all --you will damage your eyesight; never go out in the sun as you will get cancer, are causing needless hysteria and paranoia.

The more you are away from the nature, the more there is a cause for illness and you will automatically support global corporations.

There are definite foolproof ways of getting the benefits of the nature without exposing ourselves to its adverse effects. It is also as intuitive as when the clouds gather we become gloomy. When we see the sun, we feel energetic.

Process

HRM experimented on his own body for three years and devised this method based on trial and error. This can be accomplished by anyone in any part of the world at any time of the year.

HRM is not a unique figure and anyone can do this. Now thousands are using this method and achieving results. In Brazil, Australia, Germany, more than 3000 people are subsisting on light. This is a rebirth of a science that was practiced long time ago. Originally this was a spiritual practice in the ancient times and now it is becoming a scientific practice, which can be followed by anyone as described below. Day by day this practice is becoming popular and has become known as the HRM Phenomena.

Safe Sungazing Practice Sungazing is a one-time practice of your lifetime usually for a period of 9 months. You can break up the practice in three phases. 0 to 3months, 3-6months and 6- 9months. You have to walk barefoot for 45 minutes for the rest of your life. Food makes us commit the maximum pain to others and exploit others.

The practice entails looking at the rising or setting sun one time per day only during the safe hours. No harm will come to your eyes during the morning and evening safe hours.

The safe hours are anytime within 1-hour window after sunrise or anytime within the 1-hr window before sunset.

It is scientifically proven beyond a reasonable doubt that during these times, one is free from UV and IR rays exposure, which is harmful to your eyes.

To determine the timings of sunrise or sunset, you can check the local newspaper, which also lists the UV Index as 0 during these times. Both times are good for practice - it depends on individual's convenience. Sungazing also has the added advantage of getting vitamin A and D during the 1-hour safe period window. Vitamin A is necessary for the health of the eye, the only vitamin that the eye requires. If you sun gaze, the spectacles and the associated power in the eye will go away and this will provide better eyesight without glasses.

For those who cannot initially sungaze during the safe periods, sunbathing is an effective method for receiving the sun energy at a slower pace until one is able to sungaze. Best times to take sunbath is when the UV index is lower 2 or below.

This usually occurs within the 2-hour window after sunrise or before sunset.

Sun bathing during the day is to be avoided, except for during the winter months, when the UV index usually remains at 2 all throughout which is safe for sunbathing.

Check your local newspaper to see the published results for UV Index to be sure. Also do not use sunscreen. When body gets heated up you perspire and sweat is a waste product and needs to go out of the body.

When you are painted or coated with lotions and creams -- they get degenerated and the chemicals enter your body. It is our malpractice -our wrong use- why we blame the sun for skin cancers.

0 - 3 Months

First day, during the safe hours, look for a maximum of 10 seconds. Second day look for 20 seconds at the rising sun adding ten seconds every succeeding day. So at the end of 10 continuous days of sun gazing you will be looking at the sun for 100 seconds i.e. 1 minute and 40 seconds. Stand on bare earth with bare foot. Eyes can blink and/or flicker. Stillness or Steadiness of the eyes is not required. Do not where any lenses or glasses while sungazing.

Why don't you watch the sun instead of the TV? The intensity of the TV is much more than the rising or setting of the sun. If you can watch TV at close ranges for extended periods of time, you can easily watch the rising or setting sun safely. Have a belief that the sunrays or lights that you are getting into your eyes are of immense benefit and will not harm you. This will give you earlier, quicker and better results.

Even without a belief component also you will get the results provided that you follow the practice, however, it will take longer time. On the other hand, you need not restrict any of your normal daily routines.

There are no restrictions. You can enjoy your food while applying this practice. Hunger will disappear eventually by itself.

You may consider gazing from the same place at the same time daily. Following circadian patterns has its advantages. If you pray, you can have any prayer of your choice. No particular one is suggested and it is not a requirement. As a precaution, have your eyes examined by a doctor.

This is to err on the side of caution from a scientific standpoint. Also, you should have periodic check ups. Additionally, you can buy photo sun-cards to monitor UV and IR radiation, which are priced at about $2. (when cards are kept in the sunlight). There is no need to buy an expensive $500 photosensometer. If your cheeks get heated up then stop gazing. Use common sense.

When you reach three months you will have gazed at the sun 15 minutes at a stretch. If you can watch TV for 3 hours, surely you can see the sun for that long.

What is happening as you go up to 15 minutes? The sun energy or the sunrays passing through the human eye are charging the hypothalamus tract, which is the pathway behind the retina leading to the human brain. As the brain receives the power supply through this pathway, it is activated into a brainutor. One of the software programs inherent in the brain will start running and we will begin to realize the changes since we will have no mental tension or worries. Besides, we will have the self-confidence to face life problems by means of developing a positive mindset instead of a negative one.

Moreover, we will become fearless since our psychosis will have disappeared so will have all the ills of the mind. This is the first phase of the method and lasts around 3 months.

Humans have good and bad qualities, which are 2 sides of the same coin. In the absence of the sunlight we develop bad qualities. When sunlight enters the brain, good qualities come into appearance replacing bad ones. Eventually, even spiritual ignorance goes away.

Sometimes, you get confused from what you hear and read.

You get contradictory information such as red wine is good for you and alcohol is bad for you. You are baffled with life's problems and detest decision-making. But after 3 months of sun gazing, you develop a sense of confidence and know the answers for yourself spiritually.

There is a balance of the mind, where you are in a position to judge personal answers - the correct answers. You develop powers that are already inherent in you.

Bad qualities disappear, anger, greed, jealousy leave you. You become a lovable creature. Everybody likes you. You will do no wrong. If you are positive or fearless, you will not harm anybody nor pain anybody. You will become a compassionate person. This is a great contribution to world peace. A positive approach creates solutions to problems and waste in society.

There will be no need for environmental engineers. We won't throw waste, as there is no away. By 3.5 months everything changes.

Besides, mental depression will go away. Psychiatrists are observing that sadness is caused by lack of sunlight. With the practice of sungazing you will not have depression in your whole lifetime. You will achieve a perfect balance of mind. Fear of death will go away.

The state of mind is such that you will welcome death. What is to happen, you will be able to let it happen. There will be no worries. Everyone has some sort of mental disorder, which is the biggest human problem, which can be removed by the proper use of sunlight.

3 - 6 Months

Next, Physical diseases will start being cured. 70 to 80% of the energy synthesized from food is taken by the brain and is used up in fueling tensions and worries. With a lack of mental tension, brain does not require the same amount of energy as before. As you proceed in sun gazing and as your tensions decrease the need for food intake will go down.

When you reach 30 minutes duration of continuously looking at sun, you will slowly be liberated from physical disease since by then all the colors of the sun will have reached the brain through the eye. Brain regulates the flow of color prana appropriately to the respective organs.

All the internal organs get ample supply of the required color prana. The vital organs are dependent on certain sun color prana. Kidney red, Heart yellow, Liver green etc. Colors reach the organs and address any deficiencies. This is how color therapies work --Reiki and Pranic Healing. There is a lot of information available on color therapy. This is the process of getting liberated from physical ailments over a six-month period. After 3-4 months you can become cured of your physical ailments with autosuggestion, which is imagining and visualizing healing your ailments while gazing at the sun.

Scientific methods such as the Solariums, crystals, color bottles, natural stones, gems, all utilize sun energy, which is stored in these natural stones. You can keep natural color stones in drinking water to further hasten healing.

In solariums there is usually a platform at the height of 100 feet where each of the 7 glass cabinets is constructed for each of the VIBGYOR colors. This platform revolves around the sun whole day and according to the nature of the disease diagnosed, the patient is placed in the appropriate color for healing. Similarly, glass drinking water bottles with different colors are kept in sun for 8 hours. The water gets solarized and water develops medicinal value and is used to treat different diseases.

Photosynthesis, which we misunderstand, does not in fact need chlorophyll. Only the plant kingdom needs chlorophyll. Human body can do it with a different medium. Photosynthesis is transforming the sun energy into a usable energy format. This is how Photovoltaic cells work and electricity is produced, similarly water is heated, food is cooked in solar cooker, and solar batteries run automobiles.

Eyes receive the entire spectrum of the sunlight, which is distributed to the different parts of the body by the brain on a need per basis. As a result, you are cured from all diseases. A 3rd intermediate medium is avoided. As you continue gazing at the sun, energy is no longer being used up for mental impairments or physical ailments; thus its storage level increases in your body. You are your own master within 6 months.

6 - 9 Months

In 6-months time you will start to have the original form of micro food, which is our sun. Additionally, this can avoid the toxic waste that you take into your body while you eat regular food.

7.5 months and 35 min of sun gazing is when hunger starts going down palpably. Need for food intake decreases. No one needs to eat more than his or her hunger levels. Hunger comes because of energy requirements of the body, which is a must for its existence. Food is not a necessity for the body to function, only energy is. Conventionally, you are indirectly getting the sun energy while eating food, which is a by-product of sun energy. If there is no sunlight, no food will grow.

Therefore, as you consume the original form of food, hunger goes down starting to disappear eventually. By eight months, you should see hunger almost gone. For a dull or weak student or with no belief, this time period may be 9 months or 44 minutes. After that time, hunger disappears forever.

All mechanisms associated with hunger like aroma, cravings, and hunger pangs also disappear. Moreover, energy levels are at a higher level. There is a judgment (having had this experience) that the brain is well activated with the sun energy. Welldone, you have become a solar cooker.

After 9 Months

After nine months or when you reach to a 44 minutes level, you should give up sun gazing since solar science prohibits further gazing for the sake of eye care. The body will get discharged when you stop practicing, which has to be recharged. Now you have to start walking on bare foot on bare earth for 45 minutes daily for a total of 6 days. Relaxed walking only. No need to walk briskly, jog or run.

Any convenient time of the day is all right, however it is preferred to do that when the earth is warmer and the sunlight is falling on your body. When you walk bare foot, an important gland in the brain's center called the pineal gland or the third eye is activated. The big toe of the foot represents this gland. 25 years ago it was considered a useless gland. Now it has become an important gland for study and up to now, about 18,000 papers have been published about it. It has always been known as the Seat of the soul.

The Pineal gland has optic nerve endings. The remaining four toes represent glands too -- pituitary, hypothalamus, thalamus and amygdala. Amygdala for the last 2 years has been gaining importance in medical research. It's a nucleus of the sun or cosmic energy and plays an important role in the photosynthesis via the sunlight reaching the brain through the eye.

When you walk bare foot, your body weight stimulates all these 5 glands through your toes. This is strengthened by the earth heat/energy and the sun prana falling on the head or the crown chakra. The chakras are not in the spinal cord that is an imaginary location; they are definitely in the brain.

All these create a magnetic field and the body/brain recharges with the energy of the sun entering in you. Relax. Walk 45 minutes for one year and food continues to be away from you. After one year of recharging, if you are satisfied with your progress you can give up barefoot walking.

Few minutes of sun energy falling on you once in 3-4 days will be enough from then on.

...........

But if you want the immune system to strengthen, then keep on the bare foot walking. Also if you want memory power or intelligence to increase, continue the walking practice. As you increase the sun's heat on your feet the brain will activate more and more, which will result in the more activity of the Pineal gland.

The Pineal gland has certain psychic and navigational functions. Navigational means one can fly like the birds. You can develop psychic skills of telepathy, television and have your body at different places simultaneously. Science has validated human psychic functions and medical experiments are being done to ascertain this.

Different body parts and its organs get purified once you stop eating due to detoxification. The different internal organs play different mechanical parts for the purposes of space travel and flight. There is another utility value (other than food digestion) for the internal organs.

All the glands have a lot of functions and can perform at optimal level via sun energy. If you are fortunate to activate the brain optimally you surely will reach enlightenment. You can read past, present, and future. This method can be safely applied to control obesity. Almost all problems get solved.

Historically, a lot of people have remained without food. Accordingly in 1922, the Imperial Medical College in London decreed that solar rays were the ideal food for humans. However, no one has mentioned what their technique was-- For e.g. Yogananda in his book 'autobiography of yogi' interviewed many saints and mystics to find out the secret of their lack of eating food.common reply was that the sun energy entered through a secret door and reached the medulla oblongata in the brain. They did not divulge their secret. This knowledge was lost to common folk at the time.

Shri Manek has researched ancient Jain and Hindu Scriptures and experimented on himself under strict medical Scrutiny to Develop a simple and scientific technique of harnessing energy from the Sun and the Earth. He lived without food, on water alone, for a prolonged period of 411 days since several years. He dedicated his life to teaching how our body can gain energy from sources other than food.

People who practiced this method have observed negative emotions to drop, chronic illnesses to disappear and all obsession with food become a thing of the past.

...........

Shri Manek�s method: Is to be practiced standing BAREFOOT on BARE EARTH. No wearing shoes, and no standing on concrete, stone or even on grass in a meadow or lawn (The grass absorbs the solar energy).

One has to stand either on sand or on gravel/mud/ earth. Bare feet have to be in contact with the bare earth.

Practice this in the open, in the first one hour after sunrise or the last one hour just before sunset. During this time, the sun rays are not too strong, and also the UV radiation etc. is supposed to be lower, so no harm will come to the eyes. Start by simply gazing (or rather, looking) at the sun for 10 seconds only. Do not stare or focus on the sun.

Simply just look at it. No stress or strain on the face, facial muscles or eyes. Stand relaxed. No need to maintain an unblinking, unwinking stare. Blink as and when it naturally happens. During the practice, the attitude of �surrender� to the natural divine cosmic sun energy must be there, as also an �auto-suggestion� and implicit belief that this is going to help/heal/nourish you. Increase the time you gaze at the sun by ten seconds each day. In about three months time, you will be doing it for about 15 minutes. At this time, all your mental tensions, problems etc. will go away. This itself is a major thing. If this is your objective, you can stop the practice at this time and go to the �Post sun gazing practice�.

If you wish to go ahead, continue for another three months, increasing again by ten seconds each day. When you are six months into the practice, you will be somewhere around 30 minutes. At this time, all your physical ailments will also be gone. If this is your objective, you can stop the practice at this time and go to the �Post sun gazing practice�. If you wish to go ahead, continue for another three months, increasing again by ten seconds each day. When you are nine months into the practice, you will be somewhere around 44 minutes. This is the maximum. DO NOT EXCEED 44 minutes. You will find that in this period, your hunger slowly goes down until it finally disappears and you have no need for food any more.

At this time, sungazing has to be stopped and there is no need to continue the practice any more. According to Shri Manek, during the first three months, the pineal gland is getting activated, and the hypothalamus or pathway to the brain from the eye is getting charged. After that period the solar energy starts reaching your brain and charging it. After this period, the solar energy starts getting stored in each and every cell in your body. When all the cells in the body are charged there is no need to do sungazing any more. Only the post-sun-gazing practice needs to be done to recharge the body.

Shri Manek says that we need a lot of energy for digestion of food and for our brain/mind, to deal with all the mental problems, depression, negative emotions etc. He says that since the sun gazing has removed all his mental problems, he is calm and cool so no energy is used/lost here. Since he is not eating any more, no energy for digestion is required either. So his energy needs are greatly reduced and he can easily meet them without needing food! Post Sun Gazing Practice: Simply walk barefoot on bare earth for 45 minutes a day!

...........

Conclusion:

There is no urge to carry on doing sungazing for nine months until you reach 44 minutes. You can stop the practice whenever � at three months, six months etc. You will get the benefits accordingly. If there is a problem of macular degeneration, Shri Manek suggests to do the following modified exercise: Look at the sun for a second or so.

Then close your eyes and �see� the image of the sun in the �third eye� (ajna chakra � middle of the eyebrows). Keep focusing on this mental image as long as it persists. When the image goes away, open the eyes and just look at the sun once again, and then repeat the process (focus on the image with closed eyes). Repeat a third time.

Do this until the image persists for about 5-6 minutes. At this time, the macular problem will be healed, and then you can do the regular practice.

PROLONGED FASTING - HOW IS IT POSSIBLE - A HYPOTHESIS

INTRODUCTION:

How then SUN energy is received? The Brain & the mind are the most powerful recipients in human body. The retina & the pineal gland (The third eye or the seat of soul as per Rene Descartes) are equipped with photoreceptor cells & may be considered photosensitive organs.

There is a pathway from the retina, to the hypthalamus, called the retinohypothalamic tract. This brings information about the dark & light cycles to supra chiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the hypothalamus.

From the SCN, impulses along the nerve travel via the pineal nerve (Sympathetic nervous system) to the pineal gland.

These impulses inhibit the production of melatonin.

When these impulses stop (at night or in dark, when the light no longer stimulates the hypothalamus) pineal inhibition caeses, & melatonin is released.

The pineal gland (or the third eye ) is therefore a photosensitive organ & an important timekeeper for the human body. The unexplored process of energy synthesis & transformation from the sun energy perhaps partly occurs here.

While going through the details of recent scientific literature & also comparing it with ancient Indian spiritual texts, as well as Western occult & new age, following things are apparent.

The activation of pineal gland is the key step in psychic, spiritual & energy transformation processes.

Here, in this gland, energy processing & re-distribution might be taking place.

Pineal gland is the subtle commander of all endocrine glands, therefore controlling the humoral system. Through secretion of melatonin, it also regulates the circadian rhythm, sleep wake cycle & it also slows down aging process.

It has psychic properties & is the seat of soul or mind - so called the third eye.

(Possibly that is why Tilak is done in the forehead - in front of pineal and yogis do meditation with closed eyes, concentrating in between two eyebrows.

It is the Agna (Ajna) chakra of tantrik system. Its activation can be done with prolonged yoga & meditation techniques or through practice of solar energy. The later does not use classic yoga steps.

As per recent research in animals; Pineal gland also inhibits growth & metastasis of some tumors. It has a stimulatory effect on the immune system. In birds & other animals, it has a magnetic material & is therefore the navigation centre in birds.

Scientists are looking at magnetic, navigatory properties of pineal gland in humans. Further, through the secretion of serotonin, it is involved in psychic experiences, synaptic transmission and several unknown powerful occult powers. A lot of research is required to validate this, though some initial studies have already supported this view ,e.g. the chemical structure of LSD (a drug used for psychic experiences)is similar to serotonin.

So pineal activation and charging through solar energy is the vital step & that is the doorway of energy highway. This may be kundlini shakti activation, in other words.

Normal Pineal gland measures 6 x 8 mm in human body. As per C.T.Scan & MRI Scan reports of Mr.Hira Ratan Manek it is 8 x 11 mm. (enlarged!) This may indirectly support the important role of pineal gland in energy transformation.

However it is not necessary that anatomic enlargement always reflects hyperfunction .

The increased hormonal secretion i.e. melatonin and serotonin levels should also be measured. Even without anatomical enlargement, there can be hyperfunction.

Then we should study the pineal size and hormonal level in all psychically and spiritually evolved people or all people with extraordinary capacities.

Ever since mankind has started ignoring the psychically & Spiritually equipped pineal gland it has fallen on merely physical-material plane & therefore endless pains have fallen on the mankind.

Mankind must now relearn to activate pineal & the other psychospiritual bodies either through cosmic energy dynamics or through practice of Rajyoga or the Tantrik ways or other such practices.

(One can imagine that high voltage energy transmission through shaktipat as occasionally yogis do to transfer energy in to their esteem disciples may be utilizing pineal gland or similar bodies). Kundlini Shakti is said to be activated through these & happiness & bliss with peace are bound to follow.

This solar (light and heat) energy may be transformed into electrical, magnetic or chemical energies in body.

Once processed, this energy must be transported & must be stored somewhere. Actually the ultimate form of all energies is light.

Energy & light can be transformed into matter & back again to energy.

Hypothalamus is the commander of autonomic nervous system & pineal gland is in proximity to hypothalamus and is connected to it through autonomic nerves. So it is logical that new energy transportation may either activate this system or it may use this system as vehicle.

Parasympathetic nerves & its hormones & chemicals may be more useful than sympathetic system.

As sympathetic system increases body needs (e.g. thinking, fighting stress, excitement etc.), parasympathetic system is known to reduce the energy needs.

It keeps the person serene & at mental peace and alters the metabolic requirements to a lower state & puts it to sleep.

We can also hypothesize that there may be other hormones, or chemicals too, involved in this complex energy

transportation system.

It is well known that pituitary and pineal glands are well connected through regulatory hormones and nerves.

While pituitary gland expresses and controls physical body, we have seen that pineal expresses and controls mainly mental and spiritual bodies.

Thus intricate balance and harmony between the two glands is very crucial point in the total (physical, mental, emotional and spiritual) health or well-being of a human body, and it must be anyway achieved.

The role of temporal lobe & limbic system also may be important. It may work as a regulator, if not receptor and may be psychically involved in directing the energy in proper pathways.

Deep into the limbic systems or in the parts of medulla oblongata, this energy may ultimately be stored & from time to time, may be recalled, charged or recycled.

Medulla oblongata has all vital centres & therefore can be proposed as store of vital energy.

Thus there are energy receivers or receptors, processors, analyzers, modulators, transformers, transporters, stores (organ or bodies) etc. to explain the energy logistics.

As this form of energy mathematics is different from what we conventionally are used to, in form of food & calorie mathematics; we will call this food as microfood or mind utilization food (ManobhakshiAahar).

Here, we have discussed about the Sun energy, but one may learn to use any source from the cosmos, i.e. air, water, plants, earth, living humans, animals etc.

This may be called Surya vigyan, but equally there is Chandra vigyan and Vanaspati vigyan as mentioned in our ancient texts.

Also apart from the retina & the pineal gland, skin & other senses may also be responsible for receiving energies from these different sources. In short, this opens up tremendous possibilities, which will need a very sincere effort from us to crystallize and to practice it for welfare of mankind.

This microfood can solve food crisis on earth, & in fact, is the only possible food in present context for somebody who wants to be a long-term space traveler or planet traveler.

Amazing! It is time to note that our routine food is not the only source to sustain the body.

The role of mind: Whatever said, in this step, (i.e. the Step 2 of deriving the energy from the sun & transforming it in body.) the mind may be playing the crucial role.

It is well known that the mind has enormous capacity, (The soul has even further or infinite capabilities). Through Sun Tratak & Meditation, tremendous capacities are attained, which will bring tranquility to mind and also slow down metabolism, as mentioned in step 1.

Mind can do everything including so called miracles. It can revitalize body, it can heal diseases, it can know things in advance & it can manipulate laws of physics.

The phenomena of telepathy, reading somebody�s thoughts, teleporting the things, bending the items, all are very well known examples of human mind capacities. If a strong mind decides to do unusual fasting, it can certainly do.

It is unclear till this date whether mind is a separate entity or the pineal gland it self. According to some, each cell has mind and thus in other words mind is a diffuse electromagnetic and biochemical continuous process. And one thing is clear, that out of all body organ, mind has a direct access to cosmic energy.

Our mind is an invagination or outpouching of cosmic mind and cosmic energy, and pineal in that case would be the knob-important hub of the mind.

The faith & blessings from Yogis & Gurus have their own roles in sustaining oneself in adverse situations. On religious days, under high spirits & a cultivated atmosphere, a few people surprisingly do unusual things; like walking on fire, or piercing pointed swords through their bodies without damaging themselves. On similar lines, if someone does fasting, these blessings and faith may help to pull one through the period of physiological problems; till one enters chronic adaptation phase.

Whatever we do;

use cloning or train the whole mankind, it can change the destiny of mankind. First of all, the food crisis will be solved. Through activation of this supreme energy in body & transforming it in electrical, chemical & magnetic forms, person can not only enjoy a state free of diseases but can gain positive health with a vibrant aura.

His luster can impress even enemies & enmity may dissolve. His psychological disease can disappear. With improvement of mental & intellectual capacities one may be able to use brain power up to 90 to 100 %, as against to 3 - 10% as we normally do.

By Shri Hira Ratan Manek

"Solar Empowering: Nutrition & Nurturing"

Transcribed and adapted by the SUNGazers.

This is the adaptation of a lecture given by Hira Ratan Manek, December 01, 2002.

This talk is about the renewed Sun Science that will give a new direction to humankind and solve many of the ills of the present day human society.By Shri Hira Ratan Manek.

Solutions on all fronts�be it related to physical, emotional, mental and/or spiritual diseases. As a matter of fact, it is the rebirth of a science practiced in ancient times throughout the world.

HRM is reviving and regenerating this lost practice.

In different part of India it is known as Surya Namaskar or Sun Salutations. Similar practice was in Greece, Egypt it was called Heliotherapy, and so too in the Americas�Brazil, Mexico, Peru. The Inca civilization practiced it. INTA means sun. Example is the health resort sun temples in Machu Pichu, Peru. Ancient writings found on this mountaintop describe how to garner energy through the sun. Energy from sun has been used since times immemorial.

We know it is a scientific fact that without sun or its energy nothing will move, every movement of every creature even the various energies electrical, magnetic, wind directly or indirectly sources itself to the sun.

Now days we rarely use the sun energy willingly as we are scared of the solar radiation and treat it like the enemy.

Many human crises occur due to lack of use of sun energy. First major crisis is mental tension and worries, lack of self-confidence, and negative thinking. Also fear, anger, irritation, greed, hostility and lack of compassion.

All these are ailments of the mind. Can we overcome all these setbacks easily? Can the present human kind�each and every one of us, become a good-natured person contributing to world peace?

Yes, if we make use of the sun energy.

Next crisis, after psychosomatic disorders come physical diseases and then lastly spiritual ignorance.

We can ourselves hardly liberate us from these problems and diseases. As we age we have the onset of geriatric diseases like Parkinson�s and Alzheimer�s. The biggest setback we have encountered is lack of immunity.

Most of us suffer from poor immunity. We have no energy to tackle day-to-day living. We can overcome all this by taking sun energy. It is an established fact that total health includes; mental, physical and spiritual wellness.

An International team of 21 Doctors supervised Hira Ratan Manek in Ahembadabad for 411 days. He remained only on a diet of water.

There were volunteers that were on -round-the-clock-supervision. Although sun energy is ample for Hira Ratan Manek energy requirements sometimes he takes coffee, tea or buttermilk to satisfy his family and doctors.

After the excitement of the findings at Ahmadabad, Hira Ratan Manek was invited to Thomas Jefferson University and State University of Penn in Philadelphia.

They wanted to observe and examine his retina, pineal gland and brain. Some of the initial results are that the gray cells in Hira Ratan Manek�s brain are regenerating. 700 photographs have been taken. Neurons are reported to be active and not dying. Pineal gland is not shrinking which is typically what happens after mid fifties and its max. average size is about 6 x 6 mm. But for Hira Ratan Manek it�s been measured to be at 8 x 11 mm. Last June, scientists from the US space agency verified that Manek spent 130 days surviving only on water, the report said.

Mr. Manek is now in the US to show NASA�s scientists how he survives without food.

The US space agency hopes to use the technique to solve food storage and preservation problems on its expeditions, the report said.

Sun gazers are volunteering to be tested but due to monetary crunch are not able to document the various physiological results. Sun gazing is an answer for arthritis, migraine and thrombosis. Thrombosis is a common problem now a day because we sit on chairs and legs are always dangling and hanging. Kneecap replacement has become fashionable. Even when it is not required expensive invasive surgeries are performed due to medical malpractice and greed. Let us not be dependent on an external sources. Let us become our own masters. Let us do sun gazing.

The uniqueness of Hira Ratan Manek is that he has surrendered his living body for observation and experiments to the scientific firmament. Brain functions are complicated and one cannot explain why food is not required.

How sun gazing is doing wonders is not explained? Although scientists are agreeing that hunger is definitely being eliminated.

Hira Ratan Manek recommends these books for the curious: Light medicine of the future by Jacob Lieberman, and The Healing Sun: Sunlight and Health in the 21st Century by Richard Hobday The cover pages of both these books ask one to get rid of sun�glasses earlier the better.

We are avoiding the beneficial effects of the solar winds. Nobody is asking you to look at the sun during the day. Also do not use sunscreen.

When body gets heated up you perspire and sweat is a waste product and needs to go out of the body.

When you are painted or coated with lotions and creams�they get degenerated and the chemicals enter your body. It is our wrong use�why blame the sun for the skin cancers. Sun bathing during the day is to be avoided.

There is a practice in getting energy on a temporary basis in the Americas. To get energy for their body, natives take sunbath by standing in the sun for two hours exposing maximum parts of their body and they don�t need to eat food on those days. They sustain on micro food of the sunlight. When clouds gather we become gloomy. We see the sun and get energetic.

Make use of the sun energy in a safer way and not for harmful purposes. Hira Ratan Manek�s request is to please use this practice for personal welfare/development and for humanity.

The information below is a wrap-up of all the information in this article to give you the main parts about how to use the Sun to help you.

Hira Ratan Manek Phenomena: How he found it

Hira Ratan Manek was curious about Lord Mahavir�s life and his Tapasya, he studied all the material available.

He also studied the principles of "Gayatri Mantra," and principles of "Bala-Atibala" as mentioned in the Ramayan. After deep study and reflection on the principles of "Atap-Atapana," Gayatri Mantra" and "Bala-Atibala," he realized that one can receive enough energy to sustain the body form the Sun through the eyes by charging the brain and in the process all the mental and physical diseases are cured.

SYSTEM: How to do it

Based on these principles and the life of Lord Mahavir Swami, he reinvented the system of "Sun Gazing." He claims not to have invented it but says he has reinvented what was lost and now is known as "HRM Phenomena." There are no conditions or limitations as to age, sex, or caste.

Anyone at any age can do it. You do not have to fast or change your life style in any way to do this.

All the changes happen slowly as a result of Sun gazing but those are not requirements.

Only thing to watch is that if you do not feel comfortable after you start, just stop it. About 25,000 people around the world is now practicing the Sun gazing system and has received many benefits.

UNIQUE: Is this Unique?

Shri Hira Ratan Manek has done 411 days of fasts in the year 2000-01. He has not taken any solid food since 1995. While not fasting, he takes only three times in a day either tea, coffee or buttermilk. When he was in America for the first time, he fasted 109 days, which was completed on October 27, 2002. Is this unique? Shri Hira Ratan Manek says, "This is not unique."

Great Rishis had been doing it. Now in India, there are at least 17 people known to him, who has not taken any food for five years or more. Some have not taken any food for 20 or more years.

Only thing unique about Shri Hira Ratan Manek is that he wants to show to the world how any person can do this and this is completely scientific.

STEPS:

1. Stand in the open under the sky barefooted and on Mother Earth. The ground can be sand like ocean or riverfront or dirt or like baseball practice ground. It cannot be concrete, tile, lawn or top of the building. This is very important because this makes the earth thing complete and all the five elements of sky, air, fire, water and earth complement each other and help in the process.

2. Start looking at the rising or setting Sun for 5 to 10 seconds on first day. Increase Sun gazing by 5 to 10 seconds every day. For example, you can look at the sun for 10 seconds on first day, 20 seconds on second day, 30 seconds on third day, and so on.

3. Sun Gazing has to be done during the first hour of Sunrise to avoid damage to eye retina. One should not look at the sun after one hour or it is too bright.

4. Sun Gazing can also be done during the last hour of Sunset. But morning Sun also gives you Vitamin A and D.

5. While praying, one has to wish that Sun energy is entering through their eyes to the Brain and Body and that it will do good to us and that it will not have any bad effects on us. This is very important because what you believe becomes the reality of you.

By receiving the Sun rays through our eyes, the glands in the brain gets charged and through it our brain gets charged and this brings out hidden un-utilized powers of the brain.
