This man set an extraordinary record by holding his right hand in the air for about 38 years. As a result, he developed health problems: he has a very unusual explanation for his decision.
For about 38 years this Indian has been living with his hands raised to the sky. It is very interesting to know the reason for this. A sadhu (a holy man in India), this hermit has found for himself an amazing way to achieve the unity of man (body and spirit).
He spent most of his life holding his right hand in the air. A hermit who has completely dedicated himself to his God is called a sadhu or sadhou in India.
For 40 years he led an ordinary life with his wife and children, an ordinary man like others.
One day he decided to leave his family and dedicated himself to God. For 38 years he led a life without any pleasures, strived for spiritual perfection, did not communicate with other people and of course all this time he kept his hand above his head.
As a result of this unusual decision, the joints of his right hand are not in the best condition, and the nails on this hand are not well-groomed. Also, unlike the left hand, the right one looks unhealthy and emaciated.
Thus, the holy hand, unwashed, has completely lost its purity. The Indian insists that he will stick to his decision for the rest of his life.
In addition to merging with cosmic consciousness, Amar also achieved earthly success. He set an exceptional record by keeping his hand raised for 38 years.
