🕉️Fasting increases life force.

🕉️ Hindu fasting, also called "Upavasa," is a spiritual practice that has a long foundation in Indian culture. The word "being close to God" reflects that fasting is not only abstaining from consumption, but reducing physical attachment to raise the mind to be pure, calm and ready to worship Hindu gods.

🕉️ principles that support self-control appear in important scriptures like the Bhagavad Gita, which discuss the fit to eat, sleep, and live as the way to yoga, so believers view fasting as an organic training tool, reducing cravings, and strengthening concentration. As the body lightens, the mind has the power to pray, meditate, and remember the names of gods more clearly.

🕉️ the degree of purity of fasting varies. Some drink only water from morning until sunset, some drink milk or juice, some eat only one meal after sunset, all depending on the faith force, health and guidance of the teacher.

The main aim is not self-torture, but discipline, patience, and awareness of the nature of craving.

🕉️ in a spiritual perspective, fasting is also purifying the old and opening the way for new merit powers to circulate.

Devotees often use this period of alms, helping others, and keeping the precepts strictly so that the body, verbal, heart, and life force are consistent.

🕉️ fasting in Hinduism is highly flexible, focusing primarily on intent and faith rather than strict regulations.

Therefore, Hindu fasting is both a religious practice and self-improvement, a bridge to man and God, and a way to inner peace at the heart of the Hindu way of justice and the fulfillment of happiness.

... Read moreจากประสบการณ์ส่วนตัวที่ได้ลองปฏิบัติการถือศีลอดในแบบของศาสนาฮินดู พบว่าการอดอาหารไม่ใช่แค่การงดกิน แต่เป็นการตั้งใจทำจิตใจให้สงบและพร้อมสำหรับการสวดมนต์และทำสมาธิอย่างแท้จริง การถือศีลอดแบบนี้ช่วยให้รู้สึกเบาสบายกายและจิตใจปลอดโปร่ง ช่วยลดความฟุ้งซ่านและกระตุ้นสมาธิให้เข้มข้นขึ้น ช่วงเวลาที่งดเว้นอาหารทำให้ผมมีโอกาสไตร่ตรองความอยากของตัวเอง ทั้งเรื่องอาหารและสิ่งอื่น ๆ ในชีวิต ซึ่งเป็นประสบการณ์ที่ทำให้ได้เรียนรู้ตัวเองมากขึ้น ทางเลือกของการถือศีลอดก็มีหลากหลาย เช่น บางครั้งผมเลือกดื่มน้ำเปล่าตลอดวัน บางครั้งก็เสริมด้วยน้ำผลไม้ตามที่รู้สึกเหมาะกับสุขภาพ ซึ่งแต่ละวิธีล้วนเกิดจากความตั้งใจและความศรัทธา ส่วนสำคัญที่ต้องรักษาคือความสมดุลทั้งทางร่างกายและจิตใจ เพื่อไม่ให้เกิดผลข้างเคียงและทำให้จิตใจหนักแน่น นอกจากนี้ การถือศีลอดยังเป็นโอกาสดีที่จะได้ฝึกวินัยและอดทน พร้อมทั้งเปิดโอกาสให้พลังบุญไหลเวียนในจิตใจ การใช้ช่วงเวลานี้ทำบุญทำทาน หรือช่วยเหลือผู้อื่น ก็เป็นการส่งเสริมพลังบวกร่วมด้วย การทำเช่นนี้ทำให้รู้สึกว่ากาย วาจา และใจได้เชื่อมโยงเป็นหนึ่งเดียว พลังชีวิตจึงเพิ่มขึ้นพร้อมกับความสงบในใจ สรุปคือ การถือศีลอดในศาสนาฮินดูเป็นมากกว่าการงดอาหาร แต่มันคือการเดินทางทางจิตวิญญาณ ที่ช่วยเติมเต็มความสงบ ความแข็งแรง และการเชื่อมโยงกับพระเจ้า ที่สำคัญทุกคนสามารถปรับใช้ได้ตามความเหมาะสมและศรัทธาของตนเองอย่างยืดหยุ่น
