Going without for the cause

Going without for the cause

I fasted for one day on just herbal tea and H20. All traditions fast. I want to fast the last Monday of the month and work up to maybe twice a month for a day at a time. I always wanted to fast since being in India where a good friend who fasted twice a week, on top of Seva and learning the mother tongue of Kerala. It went well lots of time to practice and practice I did beginning with asana, meditation, and chants. Cleaning up my space and sat mediation with my friend who also fasted the same day. We went up to the mountains together and took in nature. That night did some more meditation and chanting at Alandi ashram. Finishing up reading about the musical and spiritual journey of George Harrison in the book “Here comes the Sun” and made some calls about Library Science, a possible next venture along with the possibility of massage or Ayurveda. Well I dreamed of cooking a sun dried tomato vegan pizza i.e. I cook vegan pizzas at the award winning café on Fridays with a cashew cheese on top of old Smokey spelt wheat free dough, and broke the fast with peaches, the fruit not the singer this morning.
