Fasting & Spirituality - A Perfect Coalesce!
Fasting is an old ritual followed by almost every religion in
different ways. Hardly, we could find people who don’t know what it exactly is,
still for the novice, fasting means giving up the food for a temporary period.
But why and how fasting is important in spiritual terms? Is there any
connection of fasting with spirituality? Saint Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh has brought forward the logic and connection behind
fasting. Let’s gauge what’s it all about?
Why is Fasting
Important?
Since ancient times, fasting has been considered as the most
pious way to make the body capable to meet God. It has been appreciated
throughout centuries as it stabilizes the mind and let it concentrate more on
God and all His blessings. All in all, it’s a way that makes the distance
between God and human narrower. In Kalyuga also, it holds a special place as
per our religion, but the way should be the right one.
What Is The Right Way
of Fasting?
Saint Baba Ram Rahim
has revealed the right way of fasting that every disciple should adopt.
According to Him, fast doesn’t mean to fill up the stomach in the morning by
eating all sorts of food items.
He navigated people to the right way of keeping fast. Here’s
the way suggested by Him:
·
- Wake up early in the morning.
- Do
meditation for some time; say half an hour or maximum as you can.
- Don’t eat anything during the whole day and keep on meditating for the maximum time period.
- Take only lukewarm water for the whole day.
- At the day end, don’t eat abundantly. Do meditation for some time and eat light food.
This is the correct way of keeping fasts suggested by our
religions.
One Day Fasting in
Every Week!
With the inspiration of Saint Baba Ram Rahim, the disciples keep fast for one day every week.
They can choose any day in the whole week and keep fast on that day. The food
saved because of fast is distributed to the poor and needy.
Monthly Food
Distribution!
The food collected with fasting of Dera disciples is
distributed among the poor every month. Most probably, the distribution is held
in the last days of every month. In this way, the noble cause is carried on
along with getting closer to God.
Good for Health!
As per Saint MSG, keeping fast is extremely good for health
as it helps you keep the digestion good. With one day fasting, the intestines
get rest for one day and clear out all, the cluttered material from the body.
Thus, health-wise also, keeping fast is quite good and favorable.
An Initiative to Remove
Hunger Altogether!
The whole world, especially India, is the country where an abundance of people dies because of hunger. So, this initiative by Dera Sacha Sauda certainly serves the
purpose of removing hunger and making people capable of helping needy by
donating food to them and appease their hunger altogether.
Worshipers of Humanity!
These Dera Sacha Sauda volunteers are really worshipers of
humanity who consider humanity above than everything else. Their every second
goes for humanitarian services and utilized in serving others only. Quenching
the hunger of others by staying hungry is a commendable paragon for all others,
especially for those, who live for money only.
Wrapping Up!
This initiative is indeed a noble cause, wherewith the inspirations
of Baba Ram Rahim Singh Ji, all the disciples don’t eat food to feed the needy.
Such inspiration and inspiring efforts are the aftermaths of galvanizing
endeavors of one & only, Saint Baba Ram Rahim Guru, who has instilled such tremendous spirit among people for
humanity and make it their religion.
They live for humanity every second with the pious
inspiration of Saint MSG. Salute to the spiritual master for igniting this
humanitarian spirit in everyone.
