Date: August 27, 2010 07:37PM I haven't watched these yet but a sentence in the text jumped out regarding the Law of Attraction and how it's just covert greed. I couldn't agree more. It's one thing to examine one's attitude towards money, especially if it's been a struggle for many years, but to wholeheartedly embrace materialism by putting a New Age-y spin on it is insulting to my soul and intelligence.

Date: August 28, 2010 07:18PM Breatharianism
lthough general medicine, common sense, etc. would generally place people who don’t eat within the confines of the eating disorder anorexia nervosa, Breatharians are led to depriving themselves of food by “spirituality”. Led by Jasmuheen (aka Ellen Greve), a housewife with a refrigerator loaded to the gills (for her husband, of course), and Wiley Brooks, a man who could lift ten times his body weight in 1980 (shown on the TV show “That’s Incredible!”), the Breatharians believe that a person can “live on light”–eating nothing but air, and allowing the divine to feed them, using chi, prana, or energy from sunlight, depending on the extent of immersion in New Age mumbo jumbo the individual Breatharian is. Eventually, your body turns into your “light body” in a miraculous ascension to a divine plain–Jasmuheen claims to have stretched her DNA from a mere 2 strands to a whopping 12 to absorb more hydrogen–although she refused to undergo genetic testing to prove this miraculous development. Breatharians quickly go on to clarify that they eat because they want to, not because they have to. Of course! This explains Jasmuheen’s full fridge, and the 1983 sighting of Wiley Brooks exiting a gas station with a Slurpee, hot dog, and Twinkies (because his environment is so full of junk, he also must fill himself with junk–this also from the guy who thinks Diet Coke is “liquid light”). Jasmuheen, in a 60 Minutes interview in 1999, stated, of the practice: “I don’t advocate it–in fact I’ve spent three years traveling the world telling people that it’s completely unnecessary.” Jasmuheen’s beliefs were put to the test, and she attempted to prove her beliefs to the world. She was put in a hotel room, under guard, for four days, at the end of which she was extremely dehydrated, and headed towards kidney failure. Yet, these travels have racked up, as she goes on to claim, about a hundred million supporters, and over 6000 active participants in her own personal plan. The 60 Minutes interview goes on to quote Dr. David Millikins, who put the point quite bluntly: “If people believe it, then they’re going to die”. Unfortunately, this is too true, with at least three documented deaths reported thus far. Re: Abide As The Self
