yogi-levitate Secret Behind Indian Guru Levitation Revealed pictureAccounts of Indian Guru Yogis performing acts of levitation have been documented as far back as 1884, but when a report and pictures were published in 1936 of Yogi Subbayah Pullavar, an Indian Guru, levitating for 4 minutes in front of some 150 witnesses, a serious interest into Yogis and their power of levitation.

However, even when Yogi Pullavar performed his trick there was some questions into why he was hidden in the tent before and after actually levitating in the air.

“Yogi Pullavar’s attendants erected a small tent in an open area. Yogi Pullavar then entered the tent where he remained hidden from view for a few minutes. The attendants then removed the tent.

Yogi Pullavar was seen suspended horizontally several feet above the ground. He was in a trance, lightly resting his hand on top of a cloth covered stick.”

A recent video has surfaced that uncovers at least one method that Gurus use to Levitate in front of audiences and it may be the secret behind Indian Guru Levitation.

Um.

Travelling to the moon?
Examining blood flow inside of the brain without exploratory surgery?
Building a 27km circumference particle accelerator that is the coldest place in the universe, and that generates temperatures hotter than the surface of the sun?
Extending human lifespan three-fold in the last 100 years?
Examining the universe from the 10^-12m to the 10^25m scales?

Has no one ever seen a stage magician? The only difference between them and the “mystics” and “Psychics” is they admit they are fakes.

No surprise here. We’d pretty much be wasting our time discrediting everyone who claims to have “mystical powers”.. they’re all frauds. Houdini spent much of his life discrediting people with the same scams performed today.

This is not the way the yogis used to do it.its probably what fake yogis resort to .those who can successfully do it would never try to show off in front of a crowd..we ll perhaps have to go to the himalayas in search of them..but am sure its very much possible to levitate..in fact it is mentioned in the vedas.But we people of the present day are stupid enough not to comprehend the valuable information regarding the same..hail the yogis of Indians and the sacred vedas….
