his life in utter bliss and peace.
-Deep Trivedi

Fasting in the monastic community is considered an ascetic practice, a “dhutanga” practice. Dhutanga means “to shake up” or “invigoration”.

If one speaks or acts with pure mind, because of that happiness follows one, even as one’s shadow that never leaves.
In existence, no human being is perfect. Every person has his own unique
nature and individual field of expertise. Even those, whom we know as gods
were unaware of the knowledge of science all their life.
-Deep Trivedi
