Viacheslav Timoshenko, 2 Years 5 Months No Food Water and Sleep in Intense Physical Activity Superhuman Powers.

The longest period without eating or drinking, 2 years, 5 months, and 12 days. What was the longest time you went without sleeping? During those 50 days of dry fasting, there was some episodic sleep, but for the next 2 years and 5 months, there was no more sleep. Did you not sleep at all? Were you just running at night? Yes, I was just running. Chuck Norris once came to Moscow. He was with his young partner in a restaurant and he said, “Don’t overdo it with Russian cuisine or tomorrow you won’t be able to do your 1,200 squats.” The next day, I thought, “Let me try those 1,200.” I did 50 and ended up with my tongue hanging out. It took me a month. Then I managed to do those 1,200 in 20 minutes. Then I reached 3,000. I want to show what the human body is capable of in the absence of consumption. I want to run 800 km non-stop. No food, no water, no sleep. 800 km, not 80. I run 80 kilometers every day. We’re going to record all 800 kilometers on camera. You spent 15 years in bars and clubs eating and drinking whatever you wanted. During that time, I was developing. So, don’t be surprised now. Now, I am as I am and you are as you are. I quickly achieved financial stability and realized I needed to take a completely different path, which I began to do with the birth of my daughter. She was a great source of motivation for me. Although I wasn’t sure where to go next, I felt certain I needed to change something in my life. After the age of 40, I began to experience moments where after eating, I felt sleepy and lost interest in life.

It was all about eating, drinking, and sleeping. My wife is 18 years younger than me, and I could tell I was deteriorating. Although it was not obvious externally, internally, my body told me so. I am now 55 years old. My path began thanks to Golis, a very respectable person and a serious practitioner. He fasted for 14 days without food or water and then continued with water, fasting a total of 54 days. I went to practice dry fasting with him. By then, I was already running and exercising. He asked me if I was the one who ran in the morning. I replied, “Yes, I am.” He told me I could do a three-day dry fast. During the fast, I was constantly running because my body intuitively told me to move. The body guided me. I also spent a lot of time at sea. So, after this 84-hour dry fast, I felt like this was my thing. This is what I have to do. This is what I should dedicate myself to. Then, I went to Kiev and took a steam bath in a sauna. I came out feeling like a newborn. Afterwards, I went to Ana Yakuba’s dry fasting center. She asked me how long I wanted to fast and I told her 15 days. Finally, I fasted for 10 days. I was scared because I lost a lot of weight. She told me that I shouldn’t run, that I should conserve energy and just walk and breathe. I say why? Who said it? Because I wanted to run and move. I started running 5 kilometers a day. Although sometimes my legs would get tangled and I would fall, hurting my palms and elbows. At the time, I didn’t understand what toxins were affecting my head. When you don’t eat or drink for 3 days and also run 5 to 10 kilometers daily, the detoxification process triples. That is 3 days are equivalent to nine. You help the body cleanse itself with fresh air and movement. It was a process of trial and error. I had no guides or books, and I didn’t want to read either. If I listened to others, it wouldn’t be my own path. Then, I started going to the sauna after 36-hour fasts without food or water. Like running, the sauna also helps with detoxification. Afterward, I started going to the sauna on the fourth and eighth day of dry fasting. One time, I came out of the steam room and fainted. They took me out on a stretcher and took me to my cabin. An ambulance arrived. They opened a window and I regained consciousness. There was a crowd that saw me being taken out on a stretcher and then they saw me return to the steamer. In that sauna, the steam is sometimes so intense that people can only enter by squatting. They do not sit on the first or second bench, but sit on the floor and then gradually move up. I who had been taken out on a stretcher minutes before came in and sat directly on the top bench. For me, it was a training session. The sauna wasn’t for relaxation, but for training. Then I would dive into the ice water, exhale all my air, and then dive for a minute or two. Then I would wash and steam again. I warmed up well and returned to the barrel of ice water. I exhaled all the air and submerged. So I did 12 rounds. Everything was intuitive. I always listened to my body. I didn’t read anything. Although there are respectable people worth reading or listening to like Sat Marga who also like Golis practices dry fasting. But they fast and then go back to consuming whatever they want. From the beginning, I understood that food doesn’t give us energy. It takes it away. The more I developed, the more I realized that I had to simplify my diet. My body told me so. Eventually, I got down to eating only fruit and then to minimal intake. 20 hours without eating and 4 hours to eat, mostly fruit. Then my body learned to generate and synthesize everything it needed.

Proteins, fats, carbohydrates, amino acids. There’s no such thing as pranic nourishment. The human being is above all spirit enclosed in this shell. This shell is the energetic component. That is to say, the human being is part of the energy. And what is energy? It’s a Greek word. N means presence. And urggon means strength, presence of force. Energy is strength. Thus our spirit is enclosed in this shell and moves within it. This shell produces everything necessary for life on this earth. Wherever your attention goes, there you are. Human beings can develop in any direction they wish. Fractal. Completely fractal. The world is fractal. So in 2012 I realized I had found my path and started moving in that direction. Yes, stumbling not without difficulties. Sometimes I strayed from that path. It was not a distancing but a kind of stagnation. Returning to consumption was like a vaccine, a realization that I shouldn’t go back there. At that time there were very few people following this path. My entourage consisted of quite serious people. Rashid Nargalv, former minister of the interior, the first head of the security service of our country to this day and Sergey Ellisf, president of the [ __ ] Federation of Russia and Europe. I traveled with them on private planes or attended receptions. Imagine the scene. I didn’t eat anything. They felt uncomfortable with me. And so did I. I tried somehow to fit back into that lifestyle. But each time life slapped me hard, showing me that there was no going back. It only took five or six days of regular consumption for me to gain 10 or 15 kilos. From being a young man who ran 60 km at night, I went to not being able to bend down to tie my shoelaces. I ran every night during the summer. For me, it was a pleasure. People went to bed and I put on my sneakers and went for a run. People sleep all night and I run. In the morning, I run home, wake up my daughter. She also goes to pour ice water on herself. And at that point, I finish my business and then go to town. No sleep. Yes, of course, without sleep.

So, trying to fit into this social model, five to six days of consumption, I ended up unable to bend down to tie my shoelaces. If I had lived like an ordinary person and hadn’t dedicated myself to this, I would never have felt it. The body gets used to carrying that load of garbage inside and consequently in the mind. From birth with every spoonful, a spoon for daddy, a spoon for mommy. It all starts there with nutrition. In 2022, I was also doing live streams and I decided to organize a retreat with my followers to assess their true readiness to move forward on this path. I told them what they needed to do to be able to join me. I asked, “Are you all ready?” And they said, “Yes, yes, we’re ready. We want to do 21 days of dry fasting.” I told them, “Okay, so during those 21 days, we’ll run 10 kilometers every day. That’s the norm, the minimum, and then we’ll walk all day, hike, we’ll be constantly on the move. By the eighth or ninth day, we’ll be sleepless, we’ll walk at night, and so on.” I had been doing broadcasts with them for nine months, explaining how to work on themselves physically to reach this level. to join me. I gave them 10 days of preparation. During those 10 days, they had to run 21 kilometers every day from home. So that by the time they came to me, they could easily run 10 kilometers a day and keep moving afterward. And there to support you will be the mountain river, icy water, nature, and the mountains would help them. All of that would help them. That’s in abcazia. They wouldn’t be in cities, not in Moscow, not in apartments. That makes the process easier. Although I myself managed to develop without those conditions because I once read a phrase and that was enough for me. A monk said, “It’s easy to develop sitting in a monastery, tried doing it here in everyday life.” Chuck Norris once came to Moscow. He was with his young partner in a restaurant and he said, “Don’t overdo it with Russian cuisine or tomorrow you won’t be able to do your 1200 squats.” The next day, I thought, “Let me try those 1,200.” I did 50 and ended up with my tongue hanging out. That touched me deeply. It took me a month, maybe less. I don’t remember. I got to,200. It took me about an hour. I felt like it took a long time. Then I managed to do those 1,200 in 20 minutes. Then I reached 3,000. And then I realized I could do it. I calmed down. The longest period without food or drink, 2 years, 5 months, and 12 days. I broke the fast because of my mother’s illness. My mother, like every mother, gave me so much. I loved her very much. Even in her 80s, she continued to work at the market, selling children’s shoes, and never missed a single day. You could set the clock with her. At 7:00 sharp, she was already at the market. You understand that I could give my mother everything, but then I realized that this was her life. She loved communicating with the children, and that motivated her to get up every morning to go to work. In 2022, I was at home in Moscow. My first wife, who lived there with my mother, called me and told me that she hadn’t gone to the market. Then another day passed and another in that state I was in without food, without drink. I immediately felt that my mother would be gone soon. When you’re not consuming anything, you feel everything in advance. You see it, you don’t look, you see, you don’t listen, you hear. and this internal state which I wasn’t ready for. When I started the dry days, I didn’t set a goal of going two, three or five years. I set a goal of 50 days. It was related to the birth of my second daughter. I thought I’ll do 50 days and then I’ll be out. Then a woman from England joined me named Elena, a pretty serious practitioner of dry fasting. She asked if she could join me. I said, “Okay, go ahead. I’ve been doing 15 days.” She said, “I always go to Russia to fast, but I can’t make it past 14 days. I’ve been on juice alone for 3 years, but I can’t make it past 14 days.” I said, “Okay, let’s try it.” I wanted to do it to swim across Lake Bol. 50 days of dry fasting, then crossing Lake Bol, then the birth of my daughter. In the end, I didn’t fly to Lake Bol because my wife was already very pregnant and the baby was already due. So, I stayed home waiting for the birth. I thought, when my daughter is born, I’ll break the fast. The baby girl was born and Elena had already completed 21 days of dry fasting and was still going. I thought, if a woman keeps going, I’ll keep going, too. And so, I continued. But then during those two years without eating or drinking, I had many moments when I would even go to a cafe and think, “That’s it. I’ll sit down and eat.” But my inner voice told me, “What’s the point? You feel so good.” Besides, I had returned to this state so many times before. I thought it’s the same thing again. Another cleansing, another recovery. And when my mother left, now you’ll understand what all this means, why people consume food. People consume because they’re covering something up. Covering up their lives, their emotional situation, their problems, their free time, their habits, their pain, etc. And I felt that completely when I went back to consuming. Here in Moscow, I started drinking juices. I drank one juice after 2 years, 5 months, and 12 days. After that, it shut me down for 26 hours. My wife told me that only my heart was beating, but I wasn’t moving at all. I slept for 26 hours just from drinking orange juice diluted in water. A single sip completely shut me down. I woke up. Another 24 hours went by without food. Then I wanted juice again. Then I started eating fruit little by little. Then I started with raw vegan food. Then I went to see my mother and decided to take care of her myself. No nurses, no doctors, no one. Because by the time I arrived, she’d already had two strokes. She stopped going to work because she had a stroke just like I’d felt. Then before I arrived, she had the second one. I stayed with her from January 17th until May 4th when she left. And I went down to eating cooked food. I only ate buckwheat porridge and steamed broccoli with coconut milk. Sometimes I drank tomato juice, two or three glasses. Once I asked for French fries and that was it.

I ate that steamed broccoli and buckwheat porridge practically every day. From January 17th to May 4th, I gained 28 kilos. I felt like a failed version of a human being. I don’t want to offend people who eat. I was like that myself. In fact, I began to love and understand people even more to feel them. the state of not only their bodies, but also their minds, how they think, why they think that way, why the world is the way we see it today. All of this is, as they say, sorrow for the mind. It’s a unique system. Not only does the body become dirty, but the mind and all thinking become dirty as well. You only think about yourself, only for yourself, not for others, not for anyone else. All you do is swallow everything inward. Then come the sensations of cold, hunger, fear, sleep comes, and that’s a kind of micro death. When my mother died at her grave, I swore again that somehow, I don’t know how, I would do something to help people live as long as possible, at least to live their 120, 140 years with life inside them.

That is not just alive but with life truly flowing within them. Not that they’re barely surviving as they say. And as my mother used to say, the soul is barely in the body anymore. That poor heart couldn’t take it anymore. When my mother passed away, her body immediately became very small. They carried her out wrapped in a sheet like a child. She died in front of me. I held my hand next to her and that’s how she passed away. It’s a state that can’t be described with words. She had dementia. She no longer called me Slava but always called me Marina. Marina was my older sister who also passed away before my mother. And for a while I became addicted to eating food again. Then starting on May 4th, I was preparing to quit eating vegan food for 3 months. But a guy came along who cooked delicious raw vegan food, living food made from fruits, vegetables, and green leaves. He prepared dishes as tasty as I’d ever tasted in my life. I actually switched from veganism directly to futarianism and started practicing seriously.

And in May, this guy, Alexander, who’s now part of our project, Alexander, came along and started cooking incredibly tasty food. Maybe if I had known about that kind of food earlier, I might not have even continued my development. It was so tasty and in general, it doesn’t consume as much energy. It doesn’t harm the body as much as any cooked food does. And I’m not even talking about animal products which I don’t even want to discuss here especially since as I understood from your words your audience is more conscious advanced people. So of course for a while I was hooked on that delicious food but it didn’t last long because I already understood that it kind of brings me joy but it doesn’t give me life. It takes it from me just like any other food. And then little by little, I started to move away from consuming food. And since January of this year, 2025, I’ve returned to a life without food consumption. Any fruit I ate, I used to perceive as food. And if you perceive it as food, the body receives the command food. If you give it the command that food feeds the body, then the body feeds on it. At one time, fruit was my food, and then I had shoulders like a sparrow’s knees. And at that time, I believed it was nourishing me. Even when I was on the 4 and 20 diet, 20 hours without eating in a 4-hour eating window, my body was trying to get something out of the fruit as if it were food. When you say I enter my natural state, for example, after a hard workout, the body synthesizes the necessary protein begins to generate it. If you run, the body begins to strengthen the legs, the quadratus feorous, the calves. The avocado felt as heavy as a piece of meat. It began to make me feel flattened, drowsy. And that’s when I realized it was time to quit. The time came when food just didn’t do anything for me anymore. We are collective beings. We depend on each other a lot. I love people and I want to be with people because I understand them. I feel them. I love them. And I don’t consider myself autonomous. I consider myself a human being. I mean, I’m a spirit living in this body and people are my brothers and sisters. That’s all. How would you define for yourself the three main points a person must follow to achieve the results you achieve. The first and most important thing is understanding and a change of consciousness. It’s the most essential. Without that, it won’t work. It’s not enough for someone to tell you eat like this or do this. The question isn’t why, but what for. You have to understand why you’re doing it. And when you have a desire for something greater, I mean, you’ve tried everything. Hamburgers, black caviar, everything. You’ve eaten it. you’ve drunk it and then you realize that everything goes in circles. And when you’re fed up with all that, it no longer gives you pleasure. The mechanisms that help on this path of development are first movement, running, walking, but better yet, running, then cold water and a light diet. Shaolin started precisely with that. Even back then, these monks understood they had to move and they started simply with push-ups and squats.

And they arrived at what we see Shaolin doing today that is movement. The human being is spirit and the body is given precisely for movement. If you look at it that way, our human body, the hands, the legs, the head. Why is it important to write? And why are children today degenerating by only using their fingers on screens, the legs? Were we given legs to press the accelerator and the brake? No. They were given them to move around this planet. If a person can run one kilometer, 10 100 300, they can run a,000, 10,000, 100,000. It’s a fractal. The legs are the strongest part. We must walk, run. Developing the legs is the most important thing. movement, breathing, cold water, light eating. And when a person lightens that eating and starts moving more and more, they awaken everything. Internal reserves, they’re not reserves, but resources. We don’t have any reserves. We don’t have anything that can be depleted. And we are the ones who decide whether that resource is depleted or not. We destroy ourselves. Human beings are energy. They generate that energy themselves. They produce it themselves. The more you exercise, the more waves of energy you feel. If you don’t run, you don’t move, you immediately feel the illness coming on. What was the longest time you went without sleep? After day 50, day 51, 52, I didn’t sleep at all. So 50 days of fasting. During the first 50 days there was still some sleep. I had some boards where I lay down and sometimes when I lay down I would black out. I mean during those 50 days there was some episodic sleep. But for the next 2 years and 5 months there was no more sleep. So you were just running at night? Yes, I was just running. Night fell and I was running because many times I tried to go to bed but couldn’t sleep. So I just ran. I don’t want to start a revolution. I don’t want to do anything that shakes this world. You don’t have to touch people. You don’t have to wake them up. If someone feels comfortable, if that’s how they like living, you have to understand them, love them, no matter what. When you’ve been there yourself, when you understand that you yourself were that person, you can’t put yourself above others. No. On the contrary, if before, for example, I didn’t understand those people. There were conflicts, arguments, now I understand people so much that even when a person says something and bad things emanate from them, whether in words, actions, it doesn’t matter. You just have to understand because there’s always a cause behind what happens to a person. You have to approach them in that moment. Hug them, say a kind word, and you’ll see how they change completely. I’ve experienced this many times, even on the street in Moscow. It happened to me several times. You approach them, pay attention, and the person melts. In reality, they’re a different person. It pains me that on this path, at one time, many people were growing up. Many people were headed in this direction then lacked the patience, the will, the awareness, the work on themselves and they turned around. I understand, I don’t judge them. But the sad thing is that those who were going down this path are now leading others in the other direction, offering all kinds of nonsense. It’s the same consumerism, only worse. All kinds of supplements. Crap that they claim supposedly leads to autonomy. Pure nonsense. And they’re selling that to the people. They lack the will, the patience, the awareness, the work in this direction. Because most people think there’s a magic pill. Everyone wants everything right away. They don’t understand that this takes years of work. I want people not to fall into those traps. No supplement, no pill, nothing in this material world is going to give a person the chance to move to a state of autonomy. Nothing you put in your mouth. No mushrooms. I hear a lot about people taking toxic mushrooms and all kinds of crap that supposedly leads to autonomy. As my mother used to say, a pill cures one thing but ruins another. It cures the kidneys, damages the heart. It cures the heart, damages something else. The same thing happens with all of this. Only the natural state, only the cleansing of the body. When a person reaches that, then there’s only one step left and that’s fear which everyone has inside because everyone feels like everything weighs on them. Even that bite of an apple, even that shuts them down. But they don’t go any further. Why? because of fear. Many say that autonomy, this path opens up unlimited possibilities. But of those who say it, I don’t see any of them showing it. I don’t see them shine. I don’t see them demonstrate anything. Well, you don’t eat, you don’t drink, so what? People won’t be interested in you. But I want to show what it’s giving. Now within the framework of my development, I want to show what the human body is capable of in the absence of consumption that I can run for a day, two, three, four without eating, without drinking, without sleeping and keep running and running. And now I want to run 800 kilometers without stopping, without stopping, without stopping. 800, not 80, 800. I run 80 every day. And so that people don’t have any doubts, we’re going to record all 800 kilometers on camera. I plan to do it in approximately 96 hours, more or less. When I started swimming across Lake Ball, I had my daughter on board. When I started, the water was so icy, so cold. My mind offered me a thousand1 ways to get out of the water and remain as if nothing had happened. It gave me so many arguments that my friends, the organizers would all say, “Yes, it was better to stop, to cancel, and no one would have reproached me for anything.” But I understood that by doing so, I would betray myself. I would feed that black wolf, the devil, and I would feed him so well that afterward it would be very difficult for me to silence him. I mean, I would lie. I would betray myself. And that responsibility to my daughter who was there with me kept me from getting out of the water, from continuing. And then I felt how I overcame it. And little by little, I swam and swam. How long did the crossing last? We swam for 24 hours without stopping, taking turns. 2 hours during the day, one at night. We swam 55 km. And other times when I didn’t stop, like when I ran 52 km, how many times my mind whispered to me to slow down, to slow down. or the Kirch Straight which I swam across without stopping 11.5 km in 5 1/2 hours without even changing my swimming style. That’s why these 800 km means so much also for those people who were going down this path turned around and are now even leading others in the wrong way. How am I different from others in that I’d rather die right there on the track running than slow down? That’s my level of responsibility. It’s the most important thing I have. Now, I’m advising people and they ask me, “How do you do it?” I stay in bed for an hour thinking about whether to get up or not or whether to pour a bucket of cold water on myself. But the thing is, I’ve worked on it. I tell them you spent 15 years in bars, clubs, eating, drinking, whatever you wanted, doing whatever you wanted. And at that time, I was developing. So don’t be surprised now. Now I am who I am, and you are who you are. I start the race on May 4 or 5, 2025. I think it will take me about four or four and a half days according to my calculations. Along the route, there will be people who will join. The race will be called each with his own victory. Someone can join and run 10 kilometers, another three, another five. The important thing is why and for what reason you do it. My path is this way because I do it for my daughter. I crossed by call in its defense. You can’t simply want to not eat. Why? For what reason? The simple desire not to eat. I forbid it even for just one day. Why do you do it if you don’t understand why or what for? Well, it’s fine to cleanse your body, a healing fast, for example, for 3 days, but there’s no point in doing anything beyond that if you don’t understand why you’re doing it. If you don’t have any inner motivation or sufficient awareness to understand that you have to change something in your life. That’s how I started. I just went for a run and then I felt it. And then the creator within me guided me. In the third part, I would like to share a report about Vacheslav’s non-stop 800 km run, being 5 months without food, water, and sleep, and about his return to the autonomy, which took place in January of this year, 2025, and continues to this day.

Porfiry Ivanov Secret: How to Live Without Food, Fear, or Disease | Nature’s Healing Power

No one in the world has been able to take full advantage of my wealth, yet it remains intact. You human beings began to think and act on Earth in such a way that death arose within you—but it is not within me. My living forces remained hidden from you.

I need a man committed to being the first to walk this path. Only then will he know what life is.

I decided to go into nature, to walk with my feet on the ground like an animal, to charge myself with energy, to fill myself with those forces and possess them.

As soon as a human being is born, he is already captured. We still don’t know why he cries, but we would like to understand.

When I was 35 years old in the Caucasus, a thought came to me: Why is this happening to people? They eat fatty foods, wear clothes to protect themselves from the cold, and live inside houses—yet they still get sick. They get sick and die. This is not good.

One winter in the mountains, I saw a man walking in freezing cold without a hat. Suddenly, I realized: A hardened man is not afraid of nature. He is not afraid of the cold or disease. The human body can adapt to any natural condition. We all can—and should—develop this ability further.

I once dreamed of a beautiful man walking naked through the snow, his skin tanned. I woke up deeply inspired. That image became the purpose of my life. So I decided to harden my body, to pave the way toward harnessing the riches nature offers.

I threw away the hat I always wore. This was new to me, but I didn’t yet know it was the beginning of a new idea.

The neighbors noticed my bare head and laughed. “Where are you going?” they asked.
I replied, “I go where others don’t.”

Once, a child was crying from misfortune. I thought, If I take him in my arms and he calms down, then my purpose in life is true. It would mean I’m on the right path.

I asked the child’s mother for permission. She agreed. The boy calmed in my arms. Is it really up to me to turn everything around? To become useful for every such child? This could bring peace to all.

You all seek refuge from harsh weather. You love spring, warm days, and clear sun—but I wait for the white snow. For me, to love nature is to live in harmony with her.

I began listening to my body. I walked through frost with confidence, trusting nature would not harm me. At first, I wore shoes like everyone else, but I had already learned that walking barefoot—even in winter—was necessary. I just lacked the courage.

One day, a man came to me. His mother had been bedridden for 17 years. I visited her, thinking, If nature gives me strength and I can help her walk, then I will walk barefoot in winter snow.

I attended to her, threw her crutches into the attic, and left. Later, they told me she could walk again. My hair stood on end. Now I must take off my shoes and walk on snow. This is where my strength will be born.

I stepped outside the village, removed my shoes, and for the first time walked 10 km barefoot on snow. It was cold, but I endured consciously.

When I returned, people laughed. Why? I wondered. I’m cold—something’s not right. Then I realized: Everything a person wears is foreign, dead. So I began undressing until I was down to my underwear.

Wonderful! What incredible health! I can’t even describe it. Nature has amazing qualities. We must experience them, learn from them, and understand them. Master this, and you can live a long life.

So I realized: I must learn to live without needing a house, food, or water. Now, Earth, air, and water suffer because of man. Through this, humans have built only a temporary life.

An evolutionary request—that’s the essence. To learn to ask nature, without any whim: “Nature, my love, give me life.” My teaching is to live in harmony with you, to live like you.

But today’s dawn has not yet arrived. We all live in yesterday. People are never satisfied. No matter how much they’re given, it’s never enough. They will consume everything on Earth and still remain hungry. They will burn the entire Earth and still not feel warm.

A criminal is born through money multiplying among people. What is bought becomes useless; wealth is but dust. There is nothing alive in money—everything is dead. Through money, we’ve created death.

A person in the north kills a polar bear, and somewhere, a war begins.

Here in the garden, the master walked, always thinking, always searching for a way to share his idea—to guide people toward nature so they would never lack, for nature provides.

To demonstrate, the master fasted for many days, enduring, knowing it was possible. “You can live in this world feeding on other things,” he said. “Humanity will feed on a new form of nitrogen—a living form.”

This is what we do not yet understand: In nature, one can live without food. It takes long work—rebuilding the mind so the brain isn’t afraid of running out.

September 14th – The fifth day of my dry fast. I consume nothing—no water, no food—only the air around me.

September 20th – 11 days of dry fasting. I dedicate this to all people of the world.

In nature, habits disappear. Patience arises—not just any patience, but conscious patience. Evolution will open our eyes. We will begin to live anew.

I haven’t eaten for 65 days. No water either. There are two of us—Valia and me—now in our third month without food. All that was foreign to the body is gone, but natural forces remain. There is no disease.

Nature is forcing people to change. As a result, they will become hardened. If we miss this, we are worthless. We are the new humanity.

Cold water is strength. It is natural, alive. It loves children; it gives them health. Cold water is a remedy for the human mind.

According to Ivanov’s teachings, we shouldn’t seek cures but prevent disease. Don’t forget nature—air, water, Earth. Keep them close like friends. Love them with your body.

I came to Earth not for your economy or politics. I need neither. My will is to free the sick from suffering and give them strength.

I’ve learned to be useful. Now I need patience—but few accept my science. They don’t believe it’s instant, useful, harmless.

I tell the pastor: “Without a master, even a sheep cries.” They ask, “Is the master of nature good for you?” I reply, “Then give me back my vision. Is it really you, Father?”

I’ve earned these gifts. I never forget my duty to the sick. I want to give science everything I’ve found in nature. Perhaps medicine will discover more and apply it.

Poor people, what are you waiting for?

Once, I asked to enter an office. “Are you a doctor?” they asked.

Hippocrates, the father of medicine, said: “Unless nature itself heals man, you’ll need a scalpel.” Medicine has done much, but it doesn’t save people. They still die.

The doctor stopped me: “Are you saying people can avoid death?”
I replied, “They are not going to die. Though we haven’t seen it yet, I believe it’s possible.”

The doctor concluded I was mentally ill. “Wait,” he said, “we’ll take you where they’ll help you practice your method.”

I didn’t know they’d decided to isolate me. Doctors feared my ideas. So I was sent to the Vovo psychiatric hospital. Now, among people, I’m no longer normal. My illness? My idea.

1941 – Hitler marched toward Moscow and Stalingrad. I wanted to hinder him. The Germans asked Russian men, “Who will defeat us?” I wasn’t afraid to answer: “Those who started this war will lose it.”

I tried to influence Hitler’s mind. At the front, I was tortured—buried naked in snow for half an hour. When dug up, my skin steamed. It was November 22, 1942.

They paraded me naked on a motorcycle through the city all night. I endured, asking nature for Russia’s victory. Hitler’s success ended.

The master said everything would culminate. Workers would face repression. Diseases would grow terrible, incurable. Pure water would vanish. Children would disobey; parents would unravel. Scientists would multiply like desert sand, rivaling each other.

The master often closed his eyes, speaking of disasters—catastrophes unseen in billions of years. But he said it would be the last time. Afterward, people would live in peace, love, and friendship.

1936 – I suffered convulsions, epilepsy. My mother took me to healers, but none helped.

The master led me outside, had me walk around a table, then asked, “What do you feel?”
“Nothing,” I said.
“Good. Squat down.”
I did—no pain. Embarrassed, I flushed.
He smiled. “Don’t worry. Let’s go outside again.”

After three more laps, he instructed:

  • Pour cold water over yourself morning and night.
  • Give alms to the poor.
  • Fast from Friday 6 PM to Sunday noon.
  • No alcohol, no smoking.
  • Upon returning to your village, visit every neighbor first—greet them, apologize, seek forgiveness. Only then go home.

“But I owe no one,” I protested.
“Do as I say,” he replied, walking away.

When I meet the sick, I urge them to awaken in nature. They feel better immediately. You must:

  1. Pour cold water over yourself daily—morning and night—with heart and soul.
  2. Be kind. Greet everyone first; bow respectfully.
  3. Help those in need—give without judgment.
  4. Fast weekly—42 hours (Friday 6 PM to Sunday noon). After, step outside, breathe deeply three times, and ask: “Master, give me health.”
  5. No alcohol, no smoking, no pollution. Earn your place in nature.

He calls himself a conqueror of nature—a master awakening the brain’s natural forces to cure disease.

The commissioner ruled: “Ivanov suffers a mental disorder. Send him to psychiatric prison for treatment.”

But the master said: “There should be no planes, helicopters, police, hospitals, or ships. People must live freely.”

“The master kisses you all. Do you know why? This is about natural love. I stop enemies with love. I take them with me, so they leave you. Only shadows remain—fleeting. Understand this idea: alive, natural. Nothing is more beautiful than your living body.”

You realize illness comes when a person lacks spiritual nourishment. But when one feels the Creator’s presence, they transform. A great love fills them—they breathe differently, see differently.

The master fasted so humanity would awaken. His followers fasted weekly—a beginning. “I did little. You must do more. Saturday is a great day.”

I studied psychology at Leningrad University but suffered mercury poisoning, forcing me home to Siberia.

One night, I dreamed I was lifted into the air. A man asked, “What do you want?”
“Knowledge for humanity’s good,” I answered.
He gestured: “Go ahead.”
My health improved.

Later, friends told me of a Russian master who understood nature’s laws. My joy was indescribable. India had its masters—but here was ours!

That winter, we traveled to his village. The door was open. I stepped inside—and froze. I’d seen him before… in my dream. This is God himself. No doubts remained. This is what must be done.

In Rostov-on-Don, at -37°C, I saw him: a tall, strong man with a gray beard, walking confidently in only shorts, arms swinging freely.

When I heard he was in Moscow, I had to find him.

Seeing him, I knew: A remarkable man. He radiated energy, glowed with kindness and love.

For 40 years, he shared his idea—persecuted, insulted, locked in hospitals and prisons. No one truly knew him.

But when recognition came, people flocked to him. Then in 1979, authorities isolated him again—for 1,260 days, his home became a prison.

On my 50th birthday, guests came from across Russia and abroad. Then—a miracle. The door opened. There he stood: Porfiry Ivanov and Valentina.

The room erupted. He answered all questions, proud he’d done right despite the ban. “Nature told me go—so I went. Now, hold this teaching. Become masters. Show seekers what you know. Nature demands it.”

In nature, there is action. In action, work. In work, the idea. We must reclaim nature’s gifts—only they can preserve humanity.

You must live. But you must not die.

About Porfiry Ivanov

From the age of 35, Porfiry Ivanov, following his idea of health and immortality, gradually abandoned clothes and shoes, until he began to walk barefoot all year round, dressed only in shorts. In winter, he demonstrated the extraordinary ability of his body to endure any cold and frost. In everyday life, he practiced dousing with cold water, went without food and water for 65 days, and successfully healed according to his own system.
Porfiry Korneyevich Ivanov (February 20, 1898 – April 10, 1983) was a Russian mystic whose beliefs have attained a cult status, with followers estimated in the hundreds of thousands. He was imprisoned in a psychiatric hospital. In total, starting from 1933, Ivanov spent 12 years in isolation (special hospitals of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, prisons, psychiatric hospitals, and house arrest).

In 1935, Ivanov was detained by the police at the central market in Rostov while promoting his teachings. He was taken to the acute care unit of the Rostov Psychiatric Hospital, where he was diagnosed with schizophrenia. The Medical and Labor Expert Commission of Rostov declared him a first-degree invalid. Because of this, he was not drafted into the army during World War II.

In the winter of 1937, Ivanov was arrested by NKVD officers in the city of Mozdok as a “saboteur.” He was tested for endurance—at a temperature of -17°C, he was doused with water from a well for an extended period. After three months, he was released with an apology.

During the war, in the fall of 1942, Ivanov met with German General Paulus while his headquarters were stationed in Krasny Sulin. As a result of the meeting, Ivanov was issued a protective document in German, signed by Paulus, stating that he was “of interest to world science.”

Despite this document, in November 1942, Ivanov was subjected to 27 days of testing at the Dnipropetrovsk Gestapo. He was buried naked in the snow and, on the night of November 22, during severe frost, was paraded through the streets of Dnipropetrovsk on a motorcycle while undressed.

On February 13, 1951, Ivanov was arrested in Moscow under Article 58-10, Part 1 of the Criminal Code of the RSFSR for anti-Soviet agitation. On April 14, 1951, a Special Council of the MGB of the USSR ordered his compulsory treatment in isolation. He was held in all three of the special psychiatric prisons of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the USSR at the time—in Leningrad, Chistopol, and Kazan (approximately a year or more in each). Before being sent to the Leningrad facility, he was held in Taganka Prison.

Ivanov was released on November 29, 1954.

On May 23, 1964, Ivanov was arrested in Ukraine, and a criminal case (fraud). On September 1, 1964, he was sent for examination to the Serbsky Institute of Forensic Psychiatry in Moscow, where he was declared legally incompetent. On November 12, 1964, the case against him was closed. Through Butyrka Prison in Moscow, he was sent for compulsory treatment at the Kazan Special Hospital of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, where he was held from February 13, 1965, to May 4, 1967. He was then transferred to the Novorovenetsk psychiatric hospital in the Rostov region. By the decision of the Krasny Sulin court, he was finally released in the spring of 1968.

In 1978, Ivanov conducted an experiment on prolonged abstinence from food and water. Together with Valentina Sukharevskaya, they went five months without food, including extended periods without water. During this time, Ivanov’s diary entries included words that later formed the basis of the Hymn—eight lines that, according to Ivanov, encapsulated the essence of his idea in a concentrated form.

Ivanov wrote a book Detka (literally – “Child”, his usual address to the followers), a health system that included dousing, hardening and dry fasting. He based this system on the belief that removing one’s clothing while outdoors in cold weather was healthy to become closer to nature. Ivanov also advocated swimming in icy water, a belief that has been applied to ice swimming.

Porfiry Ivanov passed away on the morning of April 10, 1983, at the age of 85 in his home in the village of Verkhny Kondruchiy.
According to journalists, the exact cause of his death remains unknown, as no autopsy was performed. They note that Ivanov fundamentally refused to seek medical assistance. At the same time, in his final diary entries, he complained of severe pain in his leg. It is speculated that his leg problems were a consequence of his time spent in psychiatric hospitals.

Inedia, fasting and healing

What is intermittent fasting? Intermittent Fasting 16.8 Intermittent Fasting 12 hours Intermittent Fasting What is it for?

Prahlad Jani

70 years without eating or drinking. He was recorded with two cameras and tested for 10 days without eating or drinking in a hospital.

Healing

Eating is one more sense, to experience this reality. We are all connected to the source, the source does not need energy, everything is made from the source. Doing intermittent fasting can help us give our body time to eliminate toxins, viruses, bacteria and/or fungi. We overeat and worry excessively, we feel hatred, fear, frustration, unhappiness, and other negative energies in excess, this can make us sick.

What is intermittent fasting?

Intermittent fasting involves not eating for a period of time each day or week. Some popular approaches to intermittent fasting include: 20/4, 18/6, 16/8, 14/10, 12/12 fasting, the first number corresponds to the fasting time, and the second to the eating time. For example, 16/8 consists of not eating for 16 hours, the ideal is to count the hours that we sleep within the fasting hours, so for example, we could stop eating at 6pm and start eating until 10am the next day, with this we would have the 16 hours of fasting, and we distribute our meals within the 8 hours available, which would be from 10am to 6pm, we could even have three meals, if we feel the need, breakfast at 10am, lunch at 2pm and dinner at 5pm, this is a personal decision, however our body asks us to, I know a person who has 2 jobs and says that he is not hungry and only eats once a day, with his family, his wife and children, they share dinner. If your body is asking for more, go ahead. Sometimes, due to anxiety or habit, we may feel the need to eat more. Go ahead. The important thing in this example, 16/8, would be to respect the 16 hours of fasting. In the other 8 hours, you can eat whatever you want, no problem. Of course, if you eat natural and organic food, not processed, it is much better. Also, blessing our food and drink has a positive effect.

Intermittent Fasting 16 8

This is done by eating only for 8 hours of the day, and fasting for 16 hours. Ideally, we should count the hours we sleep within the hours of fasting, so it is easier for us. So, for example, we could stop eating at 6pm and eat again until 10am the next day. If you find it difficult, you can do it less, and you will increase it. It is said that the most important thing is to stop eating at least 3 hours before sleeping, because our body cleanses itself of toxins, bacteria, infections, viruses and fungi and repairs and regenerates our cells while we sleep. If we eat, we take time away from this task, because the body dedicates it to digestion.

Intermittent fasting 12 hours

This is carried out by eating only during 12 hours of the day, and fasting the other 12. The ideal is to count the hours that we sleep within the hours of fasting, so it is easier for us. So for example, we could stop eating at 6pm and eat again until 6am the next day. It is said that the most important thing is to stop eating at least 3 hours before sleeping, because our body cleanses itself of toxins, bacteria, infections, viruses and fungi and repairs and regenerates our cells while we sleep. If we eat, we take time away from this task, because the body dedicates it to digestion.

What is intermittent fasting for?

We could conclude that intermittent fasting is the most natural thing, just as our body and mind need a rest, so does our digestive system. We consume a lot of harmful processed food and, in theory, inflammatory oils that are harmful to our health (corn, sunflower, soy, canola). Fasting gives our body and digestive system the necessary opportunity to cleanse itself of toxins, viruses, bacteria, fungi, repair damage caused by daily life and cure diseases.

Chiquita Beach is home to a small, quiet but colorful and naturally beautiful town, located along the coast and quite isolated, making it a perfect destination for those who want to get lost in the beauty of Costa Rica, where can find some hotels, resorts, supermarkets, restaurants and shops, among other things.

Please drive with your lights on. After the mountains the road to Limon is practically straight with no hills.

When you reach Puerto Limon, just before you enter the city, at a gas station you should take the exit on your right, following the road signs to Cahuita and Puerto Viejo, and continue along the coast road to Puerto Viejo for about 60 km (37 miles). Once in Puerto Viejo, follow the road for about 8.5 km (5 miles), you will pass through the communities of Puerto Viejo, Cocles and Chiquita until you reach Punta Uva Beach.

Please note that if you have not left San Jose by 2 pm you will be driving part of the way at night. We do not recommend this for first time travelers driving in Costa Rica. Roads do not have lines, rain can be bad, lighting is poor and there are potholes and there could be people walking/cycling, which may be unseen.
