Fasting on your spiritual path to God

[Guest guest]

These above point are preparatory for any fasting. By practicing

natural and pure eating habits as described above for a few years,

you may then consider your first extended fasting. By extended is

meant more than 3 days and less than approximately 3 weeks. Short

time fasting of up to 3 days can be done any time when feeling

healthy and well. Do it only during periods of normal and moderate

physical work and exercise. Whenever you plan very hard work or

intense physical exercise you should at the beginning of your

experience take normal food quality and quantity.

 

When you plan your first fasting of approximately 10 to 20 days under

the supervision of a medical doctor, healer or your Guru, you may

even combine it with fasting walks. This is a very good method of

increasing the benefits of fasting. It is practices with daily easy

walks starting at approximately 6 to 10 km and increasing daily up to

approximately 30 to 40 km maximum and 15 to 25 km being the minimum

by the end of your fasting walk. Drink 3 to 4 liters of pure water

and watch your blood sugar level by listening to your body's

symptoms. This should only be done under supervision of a

knowledgeable person experienced with this special way of fasting. To

keep the blood sugar level safe, it is important to walk at moderate

to slow speed and make frequent rests. Any kind of motion and

moderate exercises during fasten-periods are speeding up the

purification process in your physical and metaphysical body. Take

care of your body, it is a vehicle given to your soul to learn

important spiritual lessons on this planet, so handle your physical

body with care and love while continuously aiming at your spiritual

goal until you reached it. The goal of any soul on earth and

elsewhere is freedom in God.

 

After several years of spiritual practice like for example extensive

Kriya Yoga leading to your daily Kriya Pranayama being in the range

of more than 4 - 6 hours each day for more than 2 to 3 months, you

may then start to reduce your food intake daily over a period of

approximately 4 to 6 weeks by increasing at the same time your total

number of Kriya Pranayama practiced each day. Notice that this food

reduction and increase of Kriya Pranayama should be done only if you

are a vegetarian for at least 3 to 4 years before attempting it. Best

is to practice this under direct guidance of your personal Guru. He

may assist you in finding the best individual method for you.
