A Seattle woman is attempting to live without food for six months -- planning to sustain herself on water and sunlight alone.
Navenna Shine is calling her experiment “Living on Light.”
“This is a paradigm for living in which we as human beings do not have to ingest any kind of food whatsoever into our stomachs in order to thrive,” Shine said.
Shine, 65, says her experiment is an attempt to follow an obscure group of yogis called The Breatharians, who for thousands of years have claimed they have the ability to live on light alone.

"At 'Living On Light' we propose that we have a nutritional source already embedded within our body/mind/spiritual systems that can give us exactly what we need to be healthy and well," Shine wrote on her website. "Since we do not yet know exactly what that source is I am symbolically calling it Light."
Thursday marked Shine’s 33rd day without food, although she has lost more than 20 pounds.
In order to verify that she is indeed sticking to the diet, Shine has placed several cameras throughout her house to keep a record of the experiment. She also hopes to begin live-streaming her experience within the next few weeks.

Why does she look so sad?
ReplyDeleteBecause she is slowly starving to death.
DeleteShe only looks sad in the picture that is being used for the video, she actually looks very content considering she has not eaten any food.
Delete65 yr old lost 20lbs??? Can't be healthy.
ReplyDeletePretty sure we have a stomach, for a reason.
ReplyDeleteI agree. Our stomach is used to digest the foods and water that sustain us when we have not found it within ourselves to live off of "light", as you might say.
Deletepeople lived in hundreds of years ago would say, pretty sure we have the torch, for a reason
ReplyDeleteshe has found a path to ascension it is hard but she will become a god.
ReplyDeleteSiddhartha was a great STORY, I feel your sentiment is a bit steep. Human solar panel? Maybe... god? I disagree.
DeleteWe are all of god, and so all gods in a sense. We have all been given conscious thought and the power of creation, and to me that's the first step of godhood.
DeleteFrom what I have read you should only start that after the barefoot walking phase. Maybe even postpone it longer.
ReplyDeleteFrom what I have read, the people who survived this were eating food.
Deletethere's a lot of people 'trolling' on here, and most of us would appreciate if you kept your close-minded thoughts to yourself... why are you here if you are only going to bash each article? you show no appreciation for life and care very little about yourself... i can only recommend that you seek enlightenment... hey, maybe you should read a book or two...
ReplyDeleteyeah, maybe a couple on health or nutrition perhaps
DeleteI love how it is considered closed-minded to be skeptical of alternative ideas, but not if you refuse to even entertain the idea that your preconceived beliefs may not be true...
DeleteIgnore the skeptics friend, they merely want to bash on the idea that they are not willing to look into because it scares them, weather the consciously admit that or not.
DeleteThis woman needs to be committed to a psychiatric facility. She has a very depressed affect, and is trying to commit suicide.
ReplyDeleteBecause someone is doing something you don't agree with, they should be put into a psychiatric facility? You're one ignorant fellow.
Deletei agree. we got a stomach for a reason. and oh man!! you cannot just change ribs, stakes, veggies, fruits, mexican food. i mean comm´n for sunlinght and incipid water... :D just saying
ReplyDeleteWait til her hair falls out..
ReplyDeleteI wish her the best, and while I don't share her path and feel it to be unhealthy, I think even if, at one time, it could have been done, there are too many toxins and other factors in our environment for it to happen. I'm behind her choice, however she chooses to live. If it were possible, we could make much, much less of a footprint, but I fear the sad fact is that we have to take life in order to have it, whether it's plant life or the tiny animals that are killed or displaced anytime we build a house or anything. As I said, I wish her the best.
ReplyDeleteI hope that she survives this in any case and that it is a life experience that changes her life for the better. It worries me very much to see her undertake such a daunting task. I want her to cease her efforts if she or experts feel her health and life is at risk at any point rather than continuing on. I feel she has already accomplished much by doing this for over a month. I wish her the best and admire her courage.
ReplyDeleteIts called Sun Eating and if she's built up to that level she should be fine..she doesn't seem the irrational type. Good luck Mama! The Sun is our source.
ReplyDeleteI have done what she is doing. She will be fine. She will experience things most of the knuckle heads posting thier ignorant comments will never experience. The cocept of time will shrink. She will begin to live in the eternal now unconcerned about the past or the future. Her productivity will increase 10 fold. Her five senses will evolve into the super senses. She will see the myriad of prana densities in the atmosphere, the soil and the water. She will start to have conversations with the archangels attached to the tree of life. They will love and take care of her
ReplyDeleteHave you followed this story any further? I would be curious to know if she was able to do it.
ReplyDeleteLook at the sky. We are not alone. The whole universe is friendly to us and conspires only to give the best to those who dream and work.Everything in the universe has a purpose. Indeed, the invisible intelligence that flows through everything in a purposeful fashion is also flowing through you.Truth is something which can't be told in a few words and those who simplify the universe only reduce the expansion of its meaning. God is universe so worship the goodness in your life, pray with good intentions! Wise men has said those words i merely echo them. Love & Light - David B.
