Fasting in the monastic community is considered an ascetic practice, a “dhutanga” practice. Dhutanga means “to shake up” or “invigoration”. The Buddha, as is well known, emphasized moderation, the Middle Way that avoids extremes, in all things. Fasting is an additional method that one can take up, with supervision, for a time.

The ancestor of every action is a thought… Thought is the blossom; language the bud; action the fruit behind it.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
- Frank Herbert
Time is the factor of fear and thought: if you don’t change now, you won’t ever change.
- J. Krishnamurti
If you knew who walked beside you at all times, on the path that you have chosen, you could never experience fear or doubt again.
- Wayne W. Dyer
