Riding our ego


Nikon FM2 | 50mm | negative scanned


In today’s world, most of us are working for our ego. As long as we keep doing this, the burden will be heavy for us. Even if we are working 24/7, our ego will say that we are one lazy lot. Ego is a test for human kind. Overriding our ego puts us on high station. Fasting is a way of taking away our ego – to make it weak and die. Don’t be heedless, because then we will be imprisoned by our dirty ego, like a lion in a cage. For every moment that we are heedless, some damage or punishment comes to us. Even a short moment may become a curse on us.

Our physical being cannot reach to the vastness of the world. But our spiritual being - that is something else.

We choose to fast rather than force to fast (by conditions). Training, shaping our ego based on our willingness, thus when the unexpected happens, we're just ready.
