A video of a yogi meditating in the Himalayan mountains has gone viral on social media. The video shows Mahayogi Satyendra Nath sitting still with his eyes closed, while his beard and body are covered with snow. The video was captured by his disciple who said that Satyendra Nath was in a deep meditative state at a temperature of -55°C. He also said that Satyendra Nath has the ability to control his body temperature and metabolism through his yogic powers which he has been practicing for the past 22 years.
The video has drawn some criticism and skepticism. Some people have questioned the purpose of such an extreme practice, while others have argued that the video is fake or manipulated. |
