Sunlight

A while back
I decided, as I do sometimes
to look up something random
I am not solid on the original inspiration
but I was spurred to write today
by my conversation with James
(as well as, I admit, the beautiful sunny weather today)
about random knowledge
something I sometimes pursue
whether to satisfy a curiosity
or for really no reason at all
so today I wanted to talk about Human Photosynthesis, something I googled
a while back
after, if I remember correctly, a Bio class
now, quite a few pages came up when this was searched
and although Answers.com is against the idea
there are proponents
namely, this lovely fellow
Hira Ratan Manek(Picture from the "Center For Human Evolution")
apparently has been living on the sun's light for months at a time
in an interview by "New Connexion: Pacific Northwests Journal of Concious Living"(http://newconnexion.net/articles/index.cfm/2004/11/manek.html), the first question is "Hira, you stopped eating solid food in 1995 and have baffled the doctors and scientists who have studied you during water fasts of 211 and 411 days. How do you manage it?"
that, is a good question
now, I do not believe this for a second, but this guy, still as prominent in the proposal of human photosynthesis as the day I fist looked it up,
promotes the ancient art
and references ancient sun worship
as well as a story about two people who lived for 50 years without food
so, if you want to test it out
stand in the sun for 10 to 15 minutes
every day right around sunrise or sunset
eat less food
and drink "solarized water"
which you leave in a glass jar in the sun
for the best effects
add gemstones
