Do you know what keeps you alive? It’s not your heartbeat, (although if that stops, then what is will stop too) it’s not your brain activity, it’s your breath. And you’re not just breathing in oxygen. That’s not what’s happening. It’s air you are breathing in and you are using more than just the O₂.

Reevaluate what you are doing daily to feed worldly desires, and try and separate it from what you truly need to survive. You’ll find that there isn’t really much of the latter.

Prahlad Jani, also known as Mataji or Chunriwala Mataji (13 August 1929 ― 26 May 2020) was a Sadhu who practiced Goddess worship who claimed the Mother gave him everything he needed to survive. He lived from 1940 to 2000 without food or water. Now, this cannot be independently verified, right? You can only place someone under limited observation which is what they repeatedly did to prove this man’s claims.

From wikipedia:

“In 2003, Sudhir Shah and other physicians at Sterling Hospitals, Ahmedabad, India observed Jani for 10 days. He stayed in a sealed room. Doctors said that he passed no urine or stool during the observation, but that urine appeared to form in the bladder.^[1] A hospital spokesperson said that Jani was physically normal, but noted that a hole in the palate was an abnormal condition.”

This hole in his palette was what he claimed the goddess delivered him the water he needed to survive through.

More from his wiki:

“From 22 April until 6 May 2010, Prahlad Jani was again observed and tested by Dr Sudhir Shah and a team of 35 researchers from the Indian Defence Institute of Physiology and Allied Sciences (DIPAS), as well as other organizations.^[10][11][12] The director of DIPAS said that the results of the observations could “tremendously benefit mankind”, as well as “soldiers, victims of calamities and astronauts”, all of whom may have to survive without food or water for long durations.”

Nope. You don’t get this sort of spiritual reward when you are spiritually lacking. Soldiers can’t do it. Astronauts are actors.

This man did die eventually. But he was 90-years-old. It was his time.
