Hi D........,

 

You may fast if you are having problems with health. Sometimes

fasting helps clear and clean your body. Other than that i do not

see any reason to fast, especially as penance to the gods. Even Shri

Krishna told us not to torture the body, and Shri Mataji is also

against unnecessary fasting. Do you think the deities are pleased

that we fast as a token of our deep respect for them? There are

better ways to please them like learning to love others or being

humble etc.

 

So do not fast unless you want to give your body a rest from all

that eating. It is just like taking a nap. Frequent napping will

only bring laziness and an unwelcome habit. Better not nap unless

you are really tired. The same goes to fasting - better not fast

unless your body really needs it. Hope all this is sufficient.

 

regards,

After enough time spent living in the modern world. The body can gain a mind of its own. With constant needs and cravings fasting is a great way to get your body back undercontrol. If any one is having problems with bad habits or constant cravings try fasting for a few days. You will be suprised how quickly your body will start respecting your mindjagbir singh <adishakti_org wrote: D..... <d.....>wrote:jai shree mataji,pl tell me why should we do not fasting?d...........Hi D........,You may fast if you are having problems with health.
