RE: Choosing and Using Knives: Overview of Steel Types, Intended Use, Craftsmanship, Size, and Style for Making a Wise Decision

It's great that our conversation has elevated. One never knows how far we can push the boundaries without losing the masses but you have pushed and I get it, bravo.

I would argue that if you were in e.g. the Arctic Circle (little sun) shelter and food becomes increasingly important for survival but I digress, and am happy to be proven otherwise.

I have read about, and seen YT vids about Prahlad Jani and Ram Bahadur Bomjon (Buddha Boy). I came across them some time ago and it did grab my attention and while I have occasionally re-visted the topic over the years I know that I have merely skimmed the surface.

We strive to reconnect modern man to the practical wisdom of our ancestors.

Awesome, the ancients were much wiser than us in so many ways.

hermits prove that life goes on without social interactions

No doubt about that. Few get it.

Have you tried living on air and if so how long have you lasted? I'm yet to attempt it but I'd like to.

Grateful for the continued conversation; thank you!

We regularly practice sun gazing. It really feels great to watch the sunrise and sunset each day; it's a calming and grounding activity that encourages connection to the entire universe. Even if one doesn't subscribe to the many physical and metaphysical benefits of this activity, they can still feel relaxed and give thanks for nature which feels really great!

Many members of our community fast, some more frequently than others. Some practice weekly, and others use it a few times a year, and still others don't fast at all. Some people choose to fast for a day, but many of us have gone 10 days, 30 days, and even multiple months.

We highly recommend the practice. It's a great detox for the body, and will definitely make you rethink your relationship with food! Many who fast for the first time become aware of just how obsessed they are with feeding themselves and notice how many times a day they think of it, or even how often they use food as a distraction.
