My friend was into someone similar to this guy, some spiritual guru who claimed to never eat. She wanted to try it. I laughed and said "It sounds like a cult group for anorectics." Then I said, "Why would anyone want to do that? I LOVE to eat." She told me she didn't like to eat. Which was really weird to me.
She ended up not following this guy, it was just talk for her.
