Sungazing

Sungazing seems like a practice that is truly on the blinding edge of the Fringe. The leading proponent of this practice, Hira Ratan Manek, makes some extreme claims. He states he has lived since 1995 without eating food, relying only on the sun's energy for nourishment. He lauds sungazing as a panacea for ailments both mental and physical. These claims and more can be found at the Solar Healing Center. I was unable to find any solid scientific verification of his claims on the Internet. He reports having several thousand followers who are also able to live on sunlight, but this was also difficult to verify.
