Ashta Siddhis through Sponge Balls

Experiment -2

Effect: Making a match box disappear and appear

Props: One match box

Method: With the movement of the hands and the fingers one can make an object appear, disappear or change to another. Take a match box in the palm between the small finger and the index finger. While moving the hand vertically palm side, with the match box to the audience, push the match box to tips of the fingers, simultaneously pushing the match box to the other side of the hand by using the ring finger and the middle finger and holding it by the little finger and the index finger sides. Now you have made the match box disappear. Because of the movement of the hand the audience cannot see the movement of the fingers and cannot understand what has happened to the match box; they can only see the empty palm, the match box having disappeared.

To produce the match box again: While moving the hand vertically, bring the match box to the side of the palm with the help of the ring finger and the middle finger at the same time holding the match box with the sides of the small finger and the index finger. Now you have produced a match box from “nowhere” or from “Nothing”, as claimed by the godmen and avatars.

Never in the history of miracles have godmen ever produced anything without the movement of the hands and the body. Therefore, if they are really materializing any object, they ought first to show their palm is empty without moving the hand or the body and materialize something on that empty palm held without moving. No one can materialize anything on their empty palm in this manner. If they can, they should agree to the investigation of their claims under fraud-proof conditions since we are confronted here by a mystery.

Most of the feats of the avatars and godmen can be demonstrated with four sponge balls. One feat is to make a sponge ball so light that it disappears into the sky, and then make the vanished ball so heavy, it appears in the closed fists of the volunteer. A ball is swallowed and then appears from the stomach in the closed fist. Finally, after taking the “red” color from the dress of an observer appear in the hand of the volunteer when he open the fist.
