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.

'love'. But unfortunately, Science simply does not know how to view from the

- Karl Marx
No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.
