If you can say that from the heart then you are blessed. For me it is internet banter.By what spiritual processes does one get from fasting to the greater good? I won't elaborate at this point because earlier I did explain my frustration at length. How are we blessed? What good comes from the penance? Are we deluding ourselves? Is it egotism to think that by fasting some greater good is served because we feel better in our innards?Guru Nanak does not state that fasting serves a greater good if only we be mindful of why we fast. Guru Nanak is asking why do it at all? Reconsider!!! Question !!! Re-evaluate !!! this ancient tradition of depriving yourself to serve the interests of personal spiritual awareness. What good is it if you feel better about yourself, and thousands are suffering from hunger around you?
