Amar Bharati, a man who has raised his right arm for 50 years has revealed why he chose to do it.
Amar Bharati is an Indian Sadhu or ascetic, which means he practices self-denial or abstinence from worldly pleasures, often for spiritual reasons as per Merriam Webster.
The 74-year-old man claims he has not put his arm down for 50 years, but has revealed why he has stuck to suck a strict personal rule.
Bharati began this painful endeavor in 1973 and has kept the arm raised straight above his head for over five decades.
In the early 70s, he was not a spiritual man, leading an ordinary life working at a local bank, and married with three children.
For Bharati, he began to believe there was more to life and wanted to discover a deeper understanding.
That is what the Indian man set out to do, going to extreme lengths to change his way of life.
Bharati wanted to live the holiest existence, which meant he abandoned his wife and children to pave his new spiritual journey.
His life was now dedicated to Shiva, one of the three main Hindu gods.
Hindus believe Shiva’s powers of destruction and recreation are still in use today, to remove the world’s imperfections and illusions, as per BBC.
In Hinduism, the universe is thought to regenerate in cycles, every 2,160,000,000 years.
Shiva is believed to destroy the universe at the end of each cycle which allows for a new creation, as per World History Encyclopaedia.

Blind Mystic Baba Vanga And Nostradamus Both Had Same Terrifying Prediction For 2025
Nostradamus and Baba Vanga have both made the same terrifying prediction for 2025.
The names Nostradamus and Baba Vanga often arise when conversations turn to mystics and prophets of history.
Both figures are renowned for their supposed predictions of significant global events, even though they lived centuries apart and had vastly different cultural backgrounds.
But it seems the pair have one topic of agreement – and it concerns something very scary coming in 2025.
“This is terrifying,” one commenter pens.
Another agrees: “This is the last thing we need with everything else going on!”
“The fact they’re both predicting the same thing is making it seem so real!” comments a third.
Nostradamus, born Michel de Nostredame in 1503, was a French apothecary and reputed seer whose famous book, ‘Les Prophéties,’ first published in 1555, consists of quatrains written in cryptic, often ambiguous language.
These quatrains are believed by many to predict future events, and Nostradamus is credited with forecasting events such as the Great Fire of London, the rise of Napoleon, and even the attacks on the World Trade Center in 2001.
His writing style and use of metaphors mean that his work is open to wide interpretation, making it flexible to match various historical events, sometimes decades or centuries after the fact.
Baba Vanga, born Vangelia Pandeva Dimitrova in 1911, was a Bulgarian mystic who gained fame for her prophecies, many of which are still fervently discussed today.
Losing her sight at age 12 due to a storm, Baba Vanga reported having visions and became known as a fortune-teller, attracting people from all over the world.
She allegedly predicted events such as the Chernobyl disaster, the sinking of the Russian submarine Kursk, and the election of Barack Obama.
While her predictions were often vague, her followers claim an 85% accuracy rate, though skeptics attribute this to confirmation bias and selective reporting.
But now, people have noticed that both of these mystics have one remarkably similar prediction for 2025.
With 2025 just ahead, their predictions have captured attention once more, especially one claim made by both about a possible conflict in Europe.
Baba Vanga, also called the ‘Nostradamus of the Balkans,’ predicted that Europe could see a new war in 2025, a conflict she believed would ‘devastate’ much of the population, per Metro.
The French seer Nostradamus, whose quatrains have inspired speculation for centuries, wrote about Europe facing ‘cruel wars’ that could impact the continent widely, as reported by MailOnline.
He described these future wars as affecting ‘the lands of Europe’ and wrote that ‘the ancient plague will be worse than enemies,’ a cryptic phrase that some have interpreted to mean a resurgence of a deadly disease or hardship compounding wartime threats.
Let’s just … hope they’re wrong!
