Wouldn't it be great if we could learn something from that person's lifestyle and genetics? Maybe remote viewing can be used to accomplish the acquisition of this knowledge. This could be one of the best Farsight projects ever!

I don't take everything Bashar says as gospel (as perhaps I used to) but I believe this. If you read Autobiography of a Yogi, Yogananda mentions a monk in Tibet whose age had surpassed 1,000 years old. Baird Spalding's Life and Teachings of the Masters of the Far East (another great book) speaks about this sect of "Ascended Masters" who could live hundreds of years old and still look young and vibrant.

Of course there's also the legendary Babaji who is supposedly deathless. A Farsight Project about these supposed Ascended Masters (which have been spoken about heavily by Theosophists since the later 1800s) would be worth watching.

Nice summary of the history of Kriya Yoga.

I was under the belief that Farsight worked on a Mahavatar Babaji project, but I searched and could not find it.

Kriya Yoga may help extend lifespan, however, Paramahansa Yogananda, as wonderful as he was(is), died at the age of 59. And I got the impression from his autobiography that he did like to eat.

Hydrogenated fats were widely found in our food supply back then so they might have contributed to his heart giving out so early.

Wouldn't it be great to have actual, real, reliable evidence, that such a person lived that long???

I can claim that you owe me $10,000.... but I presume that you're not gong to pay up just because I said so...

You make a good point. Even if we could locate that individual with remote viewing, we would then have to locate a 1000+ year-old birth record (if there is one) and still not be able to verify that it is theirs!

It's true that we don't have concrete evidence; yet something tells me that human potentialities are vastly more unlimited than we have been led to believe. According to the Bible, in the days of Adam, there were people who lived to be nearly 1,000; then lifespan gradually decreased. To me, it is possible to transcend bodily limitations, perhaps even time, space, and death itself. Yet truly enlightened yogis probably would only want to reveal themselves to a select few, not going around seeking publicity.
