The idea of breatharianism has existed in both eastern (for the chinese/taoist version google "bigu", no grain) and western traditions for quite some time, with it being something that simply happens to some people at certain stages rather than it being something actively sought out like the idea some people are selling now. I would say that most if not all people promoting the idea now are frauds, and I'm not sure about the alleged historical versions. Autobiography of a Yogi has a lot of fun tales.

Enjoy. It'd be quite liberating to not HAVE to eat all the time. All of nature is built on one thing eating another. What might it be like if that weren't the case?
