Power of Fasting

There are a few practices that are a constant across spiritual practices across religions, and that is, an emphasis on meditation, prayer, fasting, silence.

That there are stories built around these practices to allow the mind to hang its hat onto is another matter. But all these methods have been repeatedly found as exercises that help create

• Space
• Stillness
• Presence

Also, these practices create a break in your everyday routine of life, and suddenly wake you up to the presence of life, to your immediate surroundings, to the wonder that you are and the wonder of all that is around you.

Incorporating these into your annual life will make you more fully aware of yourself as That which is the source of all.
