    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;One last attempt for me here to find contacts.  I am guided to have the inner knowing I am ready to live on light, without doing the 21 day process.  I am already doing fruitarianism, and I will briefly do liquidarianism with diluted fruit juices until leaving "food" completely.  This should last a few days to weeks at the most.  I feel so ready.  I have no fear in this.  I am currently reading 'Life from Light' and almost finished with that.  I have done my research, I understand this very well, and I feel my "system" is cleared enough and ready to self-sustain without ingesting foreign substances.  I have been blissed out by observing the detrimental effect food has on me which is further indication I am ready for light nourishment.  I also feel I have awakened to enlightenment, non-dualistic Christ consciousness, and full self-love, which is why breathainism will be easily accessible for me now.  I needed someone (a spiritual master) to make me aware of this before I could believe it, which is only a new beginning for me of course, as awakening is only a new beginning, not an end.  With breatharianism I will be able to direct my life energy towards unfolding my spiritual gifts whatever they may be, instead of wasting it on dealing with food substances.  To me, food is the main cause of suffering, suffering that is about to end.  My energy soars when food is not present.  I could not be any more excited for what I am about to allow for myself.  People that failed at breatharianism, well, they were not ready for several reasons, either they were not "awake" and/or they just did not fully believe/understand/trust.  Well, I feel I am beyond the illusion of this.  I could not be any more ready.  OK, well of course I will trust the "inner-guru" as I am making the full conversion for myself and that may be enough, but, if there are any truly successful breatharians in this group that would like to establish e-mail contact with me to support me with guidance I would be most grateful for your support.  Love and light to all!  -Jeff&lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;My name is Amanda Gershkowitz and I am a Casting Associate Producer for ABC families hit reality show 'Wife Swap.' We are currently casting for our fifth season and we are looking for BREATHARIAN families:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Breatharianism, in which believers claim food and possibly water are not necessary, and that humans can be sustained solely by prana (the vital life force in Hinduism), or according to some, by the energy in sunlight. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Perhaps you or someone you know would be interested in this unique and exciting opportunity. We are looking for a family that is proud of their way of life and would be open to teaching another family about Breatharianism.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;We cast everywhere from Maine to California, and this would bring a fun and unique dynamic to the show. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The premise of Wife Swap is simple: for seven days, two wives from two different families with very different values exchange husbands, children and lives (but not bedrooms) to discover what it's like to live a different family's life. It's an interesting social experiment and a great way to see your family in a whole new light. It is shot as a documentary series, so NO scripts and no set. It's just one camera that is documenting your life.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Families that appear on the show will receive a financial honorarium for lost wages, time and commitment. And if you refer a family that appears on the show you would receive $1000.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Here at 'Wife Swap' we look for a two-parent home with at least one child between the ages of 6 and 17 living at home full time.
&lt;br/&gt;If you are interested, please email me your contact information and tell me a little about your family. Or if you would like to refer a family, please email me their contact information and I will be in touch.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Thank you!

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I just discovered this site a couple of days ago and would love to find out if there is actually anyone here who does live without food like myself. I've gone through the 21-day process from Christmas Eve 2007 and since discobered that I can go on or off food as I wish, no "side effects", just a lot more energy and vitality iff I'm off food. I normally just take water, sometimes with a little bit of lemon or lime or a few pieces of ginger to taste, also herbal teas. 
&lt;br/&gt;Looking forward to hear from you folks

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;I am moving very close to breatharianism and I feel ready for this.  I live in Minnesota.  It would be cool if there was anyone local I could connect with, but if not that is fine too.  I am considering doing this my way first, and if that does not work, I will do the 21 day program Jasmuheen promotes to ensure success.  I just finished her book "Living on Light' and it made 100% perfect sense to me.  I believe consciousness is a major aspect of a successful breatharian, being spiritually awake to a certain degree, and emotionally healthy among other things.  I love Lena's angelfire site http://www.angelfire.com/stars3/breathe_light/breatharianism.html which I have read through at least half a dozen times, and well as all of Peter's articles on Xanga http://www.xanga.com/breatharians.  There is a lot of great info out there if you look.  I just wish I could see more pictures of people who are doing this and meet them.  It seems it is almost impossible to find fruitarians like myself, and even harder to find breatharians!  I feel like most of the people on these groups like myself are just interested in it but not necessairly at the level.  I am sure this will drastically change in the future as humanity is entering into a mass awakening of consciousness.  Much love to all on this path!

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;The nature of my process with this subject matter is to simply be aware of this energy in my life, whether I'm just taking note of it by staring off into space for a bit, or taking the time to energize myself during a sunrise, breathing exercise or other "treatment".  Since it is everywhere (the universal force, in and of everything: that underlying substance which is the source of all things) I find that merely being aware of the fact of the orgone, and willing myself to recieve from it in whatever ways which may naturally present through the course of my day (and whether or not I am consciously aware of these interactions and processes) gives me a sense of connection with this mystery, and an empowerment by it.  What I want most of all in this process is to develop a close and intimate relationship with this force, so that over time my life is more and more directed towards a necessary inter-relationship.  In this process of inedia I have identified the "what" (as in, "By what force shall I sustain myself?") and the "how" remains a mystery.  
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This aspect of mystery is a fundamental part of my approach:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I understand that when I pursue something, what I am doing is really projecting my ignorance, and living out my various suppositions of the world - morality, spirituality, human nature, etc.  The very act of pursuing is creative, because I have an idea which guides my pursuit, and that idea will color - and ultimately compromise - my goal and its attainment.  I will end up with a series of experiences which are notable in that they "are not" that which I'm seeking.  
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Another way to put this is that when I'm seeking a solution, I am in fact broadcasting into my search the problem which I wish to avoid/nullify, so that every solution I discover takes me deeper into the problem.  I will naturally do this with anything in my life which I view as something to overcome, and thus learn about myself and the limitations I'm operating from.  I do this accidentally/consciously and purposefully/unconsciously with my process around inedia - I'm not saying that I don't do it.  Nor am I saying it isn't useful, because it is and has been enormously so.  
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I'm saying that purposefully/consciously I get to choose how I approach a thing, and in this respect I am choosing to approach inedia/breathariansm as a relationship with the energy which I've identified as the source of support.  I want to get closer, to see more, to feel more, and to understand.  I believe that the experience of living breatharianism will be very different from the picture I have in my head - the fantasy I'm holding for that.  Therefore I will focus on creating the relationship, rather than creating a version of the fantasy.  The relationship will lead to the real thing, whatever it is, whatever it looks like.  Because no matter how compelling may be my fantasy, it is the real thing that I am longing for in my body and soul.  &lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;For me, all forms of living energy are differing permutations of the universal life force and underlying substance of all things, which I call Orgone, after the research and work of Wilhelm Reich.  
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;If  you want to see the orgone, look to an area of the daylit sky which is not too bright, and set your eyes so that they are unfocussed (as in "staring off into space") and hold this without blinking.  It may be hard to do at first, but in a few seconds you should be able to see a flurry of white specks dancing in inflowing/outflowing spirals, clockwise and counter-clockwise, seeming to blink in and out of existence.  This is the atmospheric orgone, as described by  Reich, who also believed it is this energy which makes the sky and water blue.

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;I was introduced to the topic of breatharianism by Wiley Brooks' book "Breathe and Live Forever".  While it had its share of mumbo-jumbo, there was something in it which struck me as entirely reasonable.  From there I read some of Leonard Orr's stuff, though he's centered mostly around rebirthing and Babaji, a supposedly immortal East Indian guru-person.  I love Mr. Orr's quote "The quest for immortality is the only thing worth dying for" (I'm sure I've shredded it, but that's basically it).  I've read Jasmuheen, and the mumbo-jumbo content there is through the roof.  My belief is that breatharianism (or inedia - which is latin for "without food") is a state which is entirely normal in some circumstances, and not necessarily a "spiritual" pursuit at all, except that anything one seeks becomes a process which involves the spirit. My approach is to get a "feel" for my subject, and then explore.  I believe the answers to the juiciest questions (such as, "how can I live forever?" or "is it possible to live unfettered by the needs of my physical form?") have very personal answers.  To simply follow someone's program is perhaps a more "scientific" approach (i.e. if it works this way for one person then it should work this way for everyone) but I don't anticipate that bringing me the results I'm seeking.  Imagine if you could meet someone online, and just by reading their stats and bio, what they say of themselves and their photos, you could instantly know them as you would a dear and trusted friend.  Of course that's not the case.  In order to develop that meaningful friendship, one must have an ongoing relationship with the person in question.  Over time, both people will have grown and changed, and it is when that occurs that the friendship is deep and real.  And of course it continues, and deepens further with time.  Likewise, to say that by fasting for 21 days and repeating certain mantras (or whatever is the prescription) one will no longer require the physical sustenance which seems typical to all humans, is silly.  For me, pursuing continuing relations with this living energy that I would like to sustain me at some point is entirely realisitic.  As I work with orgone/prana/kundalini/chi/ki/pyramid energy (in all the different forms that these terms suggest) I am changed.  I develop a sense for how the energy flows, works, doesn't work, etc.  I find ways to integrate this relationship into other areas of my life.  And, as the relationship deepens, it becomes more rewarding and my understanding unfolds.  So, rather than pursue a fruitarian diet or eastern spirituality or meditation practice or fasting regimen or chanting practice IN ORDER to produce a desired result, I may do these things, or other things, in order to deepen the relationship.  If it is possible for me to live pleasurably without food or sleep, then it will be my developing relationships which show me this.  And if not, then I can reasonably expect the awareness and ease I gain from my explorations into the life energy to have other, and multiple, benefits.  In summary, my approach to breatharianism is akin to that of any great mystery: I want to understand, I want to belong, to feel and experience.  I may come to know something of this mystery by working within it, and I will certainly learn many things about myself.  I hope to hear from others who are interested in this path!  Thanks.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;Everyone Dies
&lt;br/&gt;Thursday, the 22nd of March, 2007
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Everyone dies.
&lt;br/&gt;Jesus died.
&lt;br/&gt;Buddha died.
&lt;br/&gt;What does that say about everyday folks like me and you?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The question is NOT if we are going to die.
&lt;br/&gt;The question is How are we going to die.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Shall we die consumed with selfishness 
&lt;br/&gt;and it’s fear, regret and aggression?
&lt;br/&gt;Or do we choose to die in peace 
&lt;br/&gt;and it’s insight, love and joy?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;That is a good way to die.
&lt;br/&gt;Couldn’t that also be a great way to live?
&lt;br/&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;A breatharian is someone who gets all of their nourishment from air and light(love). A few thousand strong, worldwide, they are forerunners of what all of us will one day become -an immortal and self-sustaining humanity. When you stop polluting your body with food and drink a cleansing and healing process takes place restoring you from the animal state(anything that eats or has sex) to your original divine or angelic state(non-eating/non-copulating). In this pristine and higher vibratory state, all of your powers are augmented tenfold, and you become a superhumam; your thought processes become computer-like, your psychic senses unfold, and you will have enough strength to lift ten times your own weight. You will require little or no sleep and will easily resist extremes in temperature. You will never get sick and will have stopped or even reversed the aging process. Perhaps best of all, you will always be happy and confident and clear as to who you are or where you are going in life. While not everyone can become a breatharian just yet, it will become an increasing trend in this 21st century. Breatharians can do it all! Important note: Never try to become a breatharian in a cold, polluted, or negative environment, or if you are on medication, or are seriously handicapped or limited in some way. &lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Hi, I am new to this group.  I am 23 and I live in Minnesota.  I am interested in moving towards breatharianism.  I have been reading a lot of Jasmuheen's stuff and watching some of her videos on You Tube.  I am moving from a raw food diet towards fruitarianism now.  I have been meat/dairy free for 3+ years and I have been eating 95-99% organic for well over a year now.  I have learned an awful lot about nutrition especially in the area of superfoods.  I am one of the few people running around most likely who has lived exclusively off of raw chocolate for an extended time, at least I like to think so.  Over the last few weeks I have been living off green vegetable juice and salads with 95% green leafy's.  It seems I am always doing something different every month.  I hope to learn to cleanse/detoxify/purify myself internally enough and start tuning myself in and changing brain wave patterns etc. so i can start living off prana and sunlight mostly!  I am only up to 13 minutes on sungazing and started in August!  Slow progress.  We have A LOT of cloudy days in Minnesota.  I have set my intention and I am making changes where I can in my lifestyle to move closer and closer to this as I can.  I am a very open minded person to a lot of things but I am also not dumb either.  I consider myself to be extremely smart.  I have become very interested in physical immortality and I am more than convinced it is possible.  Eating=aging.  I hope most of the member in this group are on the same page.  I hope I can meet some other breatharians this year if it is possible.  At least here I can but it would be nice to meet some in person.  I would like to meet some folks who are into this and have made a bit more progress than me so far so that I can learn a thing or two from them.  So, my purpose for this post is to introduce myself and also ask one question...
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;And members in this group that live in Minnesota?&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;people from the raw food community who told me about breatharianism and I'd love to find out
&lt;br/&gt;more. I would be really keen to speak to any UK Bretharians. I will be filming over the summer, but at
&lt;br/&gt;this stage I am just interested in speaking with people about their experiences of being breatharian.

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;The human body is made up of different materials that can be found on the earth: Waters, fats, metals, etc. If you use your body on a constant basis it will have wear and tear. Eventually you have to have some way to restructure and rebuild your physical body if you use it. Prana, or energy, is a necessity to physical life, but what about the elements necessary for physical life? If we live an active life don't we have to eventually eat food so that our bodies can absorb the minerals and use them to rebuild our body?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Is the goal of a breatharian to become more water base in physical being perhaps? More oxygen base? I can understand how a being could live in a purely water based body from breath but not the current physical state which consists of metals and such.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Sleep and food are not actually used primarely to build levels of energy in the body but instead to rebuild the physical structure of the body. Carbohydrates are concentrated forms of energy but a living being can create their own levels of energy no doubt.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Therefore, if you are looking to live an active life, isn't eating necessary to rebuild the body?&lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Firstly, I'll introduce myself.  My name is Ben and I'm from Maryland, and I tend to be a believer in the need to sacrafice short-term, illusory pleasures for the sake of long-term  divine fulfillment.  That is what leads me to explore breatharianism.  I feel as if, in many aspects of life, humans have tended to opt for the fast food option to the point where they lose sight of it being only a second best.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I'm Christian, but not in an entirely stereotypical sense.  I have a tendency to use the symbolism I'm most familiar with, and which I feel is most complete, but I don't mean that to limit the scope of what I might have to say in the future from those who choose to believe seemingly other things.  I say seemingly because I believe all truth springs from God and many teachings have elements of truth in them, so ultimately they're the same or similar.  The differences spring from over-emphasis of some things and/or forgetting tradition.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;However, thats just me and my perception is ever sharpening thanks to the enrichment of others, but I wish that if possible others might not associate me with whatever they may know about Christianity, especially fundamental protestant groups.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Now, to my question.  I have fasted increasingly over the past three months or so.  It began with fasts on Saturdays (Friday night to Sunday morning).  Lately, in order to simplify my life and limit my enslavement to food I've adopted a diet modelled after monastic traditions.  I have a bit of tea(green and ginseng) in the morning, but otherwise only drink water except for two meals; one at noon and another in late afternoon(around 4 or 5 PM).  So, one might say I fast for the 18 hours or so between daily meals also.  This has also caused the weekend fasts to last almost two days(Friday afternoon to Sunday noon).  I hope eventually to extend the fast length. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I have been noticing however that fasting causes a coldness in my body, especially in my feet.  This coldness is alleviated upon eating food, especially salty food.  Has anyone else experienced similar?  I believe I may be drinking "too much" water, and thus flushing electrolytes along with waste.  Has anyone else encountered this?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;I think the arguement could be made for drinking mineral(including sodium) water during fasts since naturally most water has considerable mineral content of one form or another.  I'm interested in how this might affect breatharian development, and whether anyone has a favourite brand or blend.&lt;/div&gt;

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;Living on Light and Love 
&lt;br/&gt;I had always known instinctively that my body was self-sustaining and that food was an encumberance. What I had yet to learn was that the quality of my environment played a crucial role in sustaining my bodily needs and functions. Your body is after all a piece of this Earth, and if the Earth or environment you live in suffers -so does your body. Your body is constantly renewing or repairing itself from the wear and tear of its usage, and if it cannot access the same quality elements from your environment to replace the damaged parts it will slowly deteriorate. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;This is the problem with pollution today, which is a direct outcome of our bad eating habits. By acquiring perverted desires or tastes we are eating all the wrong foods and trashing our environment in the process, so that we are poisoning ourselves from both the inside and the outside. 
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Originally we were all breatharians living in an Eden of peace and plenty. When we did eat it was only fruit or that which grew on trees, which was pure and non-addictive in nature. At some point, this peaceful natural state was destroyed through...
&lt;br/&gt;...1)the intervention or influence of a non-human species(such as the reptillian or serpent race)
&lt;br/&gt;...2)our own willful and deliberate experimentation with lower(addictive) foods
&lt;br/&gt;The biblical portrayal of Adam and Eve is an accurate although somewhat distorted account of humanity's demise. 
&lt;br/&gt;Love &amp;amp; light to you all, peter :)

&lt;br/&gt;*** *** ***
&lt;br/&gt;INTRODUCTION TO
&lt;br/&gt;THE BREATHARIAN CONCEPT
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;WARNING: When fasting, DO NOT deprive yourself of water or
&lt;br/&gt;other liquids, especially in the initial stage!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;DEFINITION
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;A Breatharian is a person who never eats, because he or she
&lt;br/&gt;no longer experiences cravings for so-called foods.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;* * *
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;If one eats, one is, by definition, not a Breatharian. The
&lt;br/&gt;Breatharian, because he takes no foods into the body,
&lt;br/&gt;therefore, essentially has no further need for water either,
&lt;br/&gt;as water appears to be the cleanser, and since the stuff which
&lt;br/&gt;is cleansed from the body (food products and their toxic
&lt;br/&gt;by-products) are no longer present in the body, there is
&lt;br/&gt;essentially no further need for the cleanser, water.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;A Breatharian should sleep very little, to none at all. A
&lt;br/&gt;Breatharian should be among the most powerful of folks, not
&lt;br/&gt;necessarily in muscular strength, but in the ability to go and
&lt;br/&gt;go and keep on going, when others would have long since had to
&lt;br/&gt;stop for food, water, and rest.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;How is it that one can survive without food?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The idea here is that we do not now, nor have we ever, "lived"
&lt;br/&gt;on so-called "foods." What we truly live on, if anything at all,
&lt;br/&gt;is, as of yet, still a Divine Mystery to me.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;My personal belief is that "foods" are, in reality, nothing
&lt;br/&gt;more than addictive drugs. Some foods appear to be less
&lt;br/&gt;harmful than others.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Why would anyone want to become a Breatharian?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;For me, Breatharianism is about a spiritual quest -- a
&lt;br/&gt;quest leading to the maximum expansion of personal consciousness/
&lt;br/&gt;awareness -- to come into a condition in which, ideally, all
&lt;br/&gt;doubt will be removed, a condition in which we will be able to
&lt;br/&gt;know how to correctly proceed in all circumstances -- to come
&lt;br/&gt;into a condition in which one's "contact" with God is maxed
&lt;br/&gt;out! -- to become at one with the very consciousness of God,
&lt;br/&gt;if such a thing is possible!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;"Foods" and Consciousness
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;It is my belief that the brain is the organ through which
&lt;br/&gt;consciousness is manifested into the physical world. So, if
&lt;br/&gt;this is true, then it is reasonable to believe that the
&lt;br/&gt;structure and functioning of the brain will have an effect on
&lt;br/&gt;the nature of the consciousness that proceeds through and from
&lt;br/&gt;it into the outer world.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;The brain is "fed" or conditioned by what resides in the
&lt;br/&gt;blood, and the blood contains the products, by-products, and
&lt;br/&gt;waste materials from what we have eaten. If we eat garbage,
&lt;br/&gt;will not the functioning of the brain suffer, and if brain
&lt;br/&gt;function is being limited by the food substances in the blood,
&lt;br/&gt;is it not possible that if we were able to cleanse the blood
&lt;br/&gt;of these limiting substances that our level of personal
&lt;br/&gt;consciousness might be expanded?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Where will the power come from?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;well, i believe i have received what, for me, is a most
&lt;br/&gt;exciting and reassuring revelation concerning precisely by
&lt;br/&gt;what mechanism one will receive the actual power to finally
&lt;br/&gt;become a Breatharian, and so, with that, i will now share this
&lt;br/&gt;revelation with you...
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;i believe the power to actually become a Breatharian will come
&lt;br/&gt;to us from a Spirit. the power will come when a Helpful
&lt;br/&gt;Spirit literally comes to the one who is finally ready. the
&lt;br/&gt;Spirit will speak either words or thoughts into the head of
&lt;br/&gt;the person. (Sister Susan, being a visionary from childhood,
&lt;br/&gt;was actually able to both see and hear the "angels" who told
&lt;br/&gt;her what to do, regarding the cessation of diet. However, my
&lt;br/&gt;suspicion is that most of us will be wonderfully blessed to
&lt;br/&gt;just be receiving the words of the Spirit as thoughts that
&lt;br/&gt;come into our heads.)
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;i believe that our heads will be filled with various things in
&lt;br/&gt;regards to the process of becoming a Breatharian. and all of
&lt;br/&gt;these things will ENSURE the success of the undertaking! and,
&lt;br/&gt;that without the guidance from this Spirit, it will not
&lt;br/&gt;happen.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;i believe that a plan will be given, specifically for the
&lt;br/&gt;individual. i believe that our minds will be sharply FOCUSED
&lt;br/&gt;by this Spirit on precisely and exactly what we must do. ibelieve
&lt;br/&gt;that a great MOTIVATION will also be given to us from
&lt;br/&gt;this Spirit, and great EXCITEMENT for the task, and this
&lt;br/&gt;motivation and excitement will be with us and will stay with
&lt;br/&gt;us, pushing us forward until the goal has becomes ours!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;i believe we will be able to clearly see the course and KNOW
&lt;br/&gt;that we can and will finish it, and this vision and
&lt;br/&gt;knowingness will be given to us from this Spirit.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;and the REASON for doing it will also be given. reason is
&lt;br/&gt;related to motivation. if we can see the Reason, we can call
&lt;br/&gt;upon this reason for motivation if temptation should try to
&lt;br/&gt;side-track us. but, when this Spirit is with us, there will
&lt;br/&gt;be no negative spirit who will have the power to take us away
&lt;br/&gt;from the FOCUS which is maintained within us by this Helpful
&lt;br/&gt;Spirit.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;and, with the Reason, the Motivation, and the Focus - all
&lt;br/&gt;provided by this Spirit - success is absolutely guaranteed.
&lt;br/&gt;but, until this Spirit comes to the individual, i am doubtful
&lt;br/&gt;that it will be possible for the individual to actually become
&lt;br/&gt;a Real Breatharian, which is as it must be, imo.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;so, if it is the Will of God that we should, in fact,
&lt;br/&gt;eventually become a Breatharian, then a Helpful Spirit will,
&lt;br/&gt;when the time is right, come to us, and the job WILL be done!
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;this is the revelation which i believe has been given to me.
&lt;br/&gt;and now, it is yours, too, if you want it.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;so be it!

    <summary type="html">&lt;div&gt;When you really think of the results of a physical food based diet you quickly see how it effects our lives on a daily basis. Just think about the time people spend because they choose the practice of eating physical food.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Just look at the time food takes from our lives. Answer these questions:
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;* How much time do you spend working to pay for the food you eat?
&lt;br/&gt;* How much time do you spend buying this food at the grocery store?
&lt;br/&gt;* How much time do you spend preparing it?
&lt;br/&gt;* How much time do you spend in a day eating food?
&lt;br/&gt;* How much time do you spend cleaning up after your meals?
&lt;br/&gt;* How much time do you spend getting rid of this food in the bathroom?
&lt;br/&gt;* How much time do you spend exercising to try and counteract the effects of food?
&lt;br/&gt;* How much extra time do you spend sleeping because of the stress food puts on your body?
&lt;br/&gt;* How much lost productivity do you have in a day because of the tiring effect food has on your body?
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Add the above together and you will quickly see the real cost of a diet based on physical food!&lt;/div&gt;
