A holy man goes on eating hot chillies
like sweets to prove that he is above sensation. He also offers some of the chillies
to the audience and when they eat they find them very hot.

Experiment: 115

Effect: Eating hot chilies.

Props: Pure Olive Oil, hot
Chillies

Method: Unless food gets dissolved
in saliva, absorbed by the taste receptacles, and that your tongue and mouth is
fully coated with olive oil. Then when you eat chillies, they are not directly
in contact with your saliva and the taste receptacles. So you do not have the
burning sensation in the mouth.
