Fasting : To do or not to

Why do we fast and none other species fasts ?

Eating is the primary objective of all species in this universe
It is a survival tool
Every species eats other species partly or wholly to survive
That’s the truth, bitter or better

Only one species doesn’t eat other species and lives on non living vibration and creates living environment for all species and that are plants and vegetation.
They consume chemicals, natural or man made and convert them into living energy matter and this matter goes up the food chain through all bodies, like tiger doesn’t eat grass but eats the deer which in turn eats grass

Eating consumes almost 90% of the activities of any living being, which means 90% of the life cycle of any species is spent on either eating or finding what to eat. The remaining energy is spent on reproduction and in between is rest.

This also means that while any species is finding food that species is hungry and famished
A state similar to fasting

Except human beings all other species have a permanent stage of fasting and small phase of eating
A lion hunts once in 3-4 days

None of the species have a curriculum like 3 meals a day and evening tea and in between snacks

On the other hand human being also spend most of their time eating but the difference is, since food is easily available we spend most time eating.

We are in a permanent state of stomach full

Now imagine a car
We start the car , go to office and then leave the car for 6-8 hours to rest and then back to home and then again 6-8 hours of rest
The engine is maintained well

What about a taxi which runs 12 hours a day
The failure of its engine is guaranteed

Our digestive system is not made for 12 hours of munching every day
Hence we have all sorts of health problems and obesity

In ancient times if the learned ones told the masses this definition no one would have understood and would not have abided by it

So they gave a religious touch

Like in workshops we have maintenance week similarly we have Navratri , mangalwar , somvar, Ekadasi , Roza etc fasting

Now let me share with you another secret of fasting

The moment you fast, body knows there is no food coming, it slows down its metabolism and starts conserving energy
It goes into energy saving mode

At this time whatever we focus on  gets our full attention and we are able to manifest better and faster.

Now we know why it is said
If you want to achieve this keep 16 Friday fast or Tuesday fasting etc
We also should watch our thoughts since our thoughts also consume energy. Negative thoughts drain us and positive thoughts energise us. Hence if we do pooja , prayer , namaz during fasting we are bound to be positive and our manifestation becomes strong.
Fruits are recommended during fasting to give you enough energy without overloading your digestive systems
Fruits are great toxic cleaners as well

So if we want to have good health
Eat less , stay hungry
Then we won’t need to fast

Body will always be active

If we eat less we can solve another problem as well

Compensate for food shortage so  that many who sleep hungry can eat. They are in a permanent state of fasting and that is also bad

Eat less , eat good , stay healthy

We have come here not to eat
We have come here to experience the creation and co-create with the universe. Eating is just a survival tool.

By the way I am a great foodie and I enjoy eating
But enjoying eating doesn’t mean gorging on food.

Teach your children to eat less and enjoy more
