I am a Falun Gong practitioner. Falun Dafa is a cultivation system in the Buddha School based on the principles of the Universe: 真 Truthfulness 善 Compassion 忍 Forbearance.
Since 1999 it has been brutally persecuted by the CCP in China. People are being killed, tortured, put into concentration camps and have organs harvested from live people, simply because of their belief. More than 3400 Falun Gong practitioners have died at the hands of CCP in the past 12 years.
People are weird , I'm planning on fasting for as long as i physically can this summer to test my will power and open my mind a bit , can't wait , haha
Side note: when I got off my soup diet I ate eggs and bacon and literally vomited right after. I did not realize how your body can't stand these fats, and additives in foods. I think we build up a tolerance to terrible foods. I got in the habit of eating bad foods because my family is under the poverty level, so organics are literally off the market. No space for a garden. So yeah :( also people need to be aware of NITROSAMINES and food. Scary stuff people
Fasting really helps you take control of your life. I mean it's crazy, I went on a soup only diet (two bowls of soup a day) for 3 weeks. A. I realized how much time I had!! wow! and how when I'm bored I use food to pass time! I literally never realized this. I still have a hard time with hand to mouth habit (x-smoker) so it's hard to fast for me. Also I gained back the weight I lost +5.. :( So I don't know where I went wrong. Weight is a big problem right now
im fasting right now its 8:48 pm and i can eat and drink in 10 mins . , i havent eaten or drunk anything the whole day , well it feels good when u can survive after a whole day without food , it means that u can ignore some things in life and u can clear your mind , its not very easy (especially at start) but after the first days , you get used to it and lose weight too tbh :P
i fast overnight each night then i eat a break-fast. then when im sick i fast. i dont have a boss so i eat only when hungry and i let myself be hungry a few hours befor trying to cure it. thats what skinny chicks do all the time. you just have to not mind being hungry. like a skinny irratable bitch. Men can control emotion better i believe. we know if we let it out were not going to get laid latter on.

No thanks. Do you hate food? I am tried of the fucking retarded people that are popping up everywhere. No way that pulling no FUEL in your body is good for you. I going to continue to enjoy my fast food.
In the Qur'an God says: "Fasting is prescribed for you (for the followers of islam) as it was prescribed to those before you (Jews and christians)".
In the west fasting is not common and some people fast from certain food only.
In islam there is a month called Ramadan and muslim fast during this month from any type of food including water, and no sex with you wife during day+ no cursing no back biting. This is the real fasting instead of picking and chosing what to eat what not. try Ramadan!!
I get a lot of headaches and nobody knows why. I'm going to take your advise and try to eat healthier food. If this works than I really appreciate you advise.
(((<3 ))) So wise you are Iorax and your face is so clear. I honour you and your fasting and the way as a Man your relationship with Organic food that honours your Body Temple and your soul. Yes Fasting is definitely for the soul and elevates our awereness and that of the Collective Consciousness. Any website you could be contacted please? Thank you. Kita <3
should i fast? im overwieght and im 16 i need to lose 60 lbs i was gonna fast for 2-3 days with multivitamins and water.what happens afterwords do i feel less hungry?
@blakasassin1 ..just cut down alot on bad foods and then cut them out completly!!
i eat junk food sumtimes bcoz i have no choice at the moment as im not paying the food bills but im not overweight anyway. probably bcoz im physical and hav a active brain which did u know? uses a quarter of your bodys energy mo o less.

@rusemensilver I ended up cutting off my fast after 10 days as my stomach felt horrible but I plan on fasting again the end of this week does anyone want to John me ? I want to fast for another 10 days or more
i think fasting is great. i've been doing it for years, an entire month for religious reasons. and my religion also said to fast for at least one day per week.
hi i have really enjoyed watching these videos and value the information greatly--what are your thoughts on hot drinks or food being harmful for the body? Hot meaning temperature hot. I've been told that drinking hot drinks such as hot tea, hot cocoa, hot coffee, etc. weakens the lining of your digestive system because your digestive system has no natural cooling mechanisms. is this true?
when will they stop marketing the fucking sixties at us - a box add on the upper right hand side is advertising a fucking WHO greatest hits. ITS 2010 FOR FUCK SAKE NOT 1968. they wern't THAT good, not ALL of their songs anyway. LOOK AT MUSIC NOW. WHATS HAPPENING NOW. forget guitar hero computer fabrications, FUCK. the whole AMERICAN IDOL shit has gotten so out of hand.
I am a food addict. Food is the only thing I would fight to the death over. I cannot even imagine fasting. I am a fat pig and I love eating sugar everytime I wake up in the night. I love food more than I love sex. I love Pepsi more than any narcotic ever invented.
From my experience, fasting is actually a good thing. I started with partial fasting (which I gave up sweets) for 28 days. Now I am about to do a 20 day normal fast. Absolute fast? I hope I can survive that. From the 28 days of no sweets, I lost 25 pounds. Hopefully I can flush out toxins for a 20 day normal fast in a couple of weeks.
You're right about martial law. However please don't lecture people with the Christianity stuff...The Bible also states that animals were put here only to serve us, and in my honest opinion, what kind of fucked up god would recommend that? Why would he let them feel pain then? I agree with Christianity's golden rule "Do unto others as you'd have them do unto you". I wouldn't have the animals enslave me and breed me and my family for food...Nor do I agree with us doing it to them
@MichaelBallack91 In the Biblical book of Numbers, a donkey actually speaks to his abuser, and admonishes the abuser. God is against animal abuse mate.
yeah when i started my water fast i got cranky and had some headaches, so i went to bed earlier to get through the first day. When i awoke on the 2nd day i felt a lot more calm and serene and i felt more energetic without being hyper like kid would be if he/she ate a lot of sugar.
Jesus did a 40 d fast. I'm a christian and I've always wanted to fast but I do it very short. I think fasting is great because my husband and friends that do it experience great things with it. We can fast to get closer to God. But I see God made us and he knows what is best for us... just like fasting!

In use for at least 7000 years this healing practice of going without food is probably the most powerful healing treatment on the planet. If Urine is added to this the healing power is so great. No ailment can defeat it if the timing is correct.
Though very attractive, the Ramadan type fast for instance is not effective since after a while i started to pig out at night. I just completed a 6 weeks water fast in November. It feels great. I regained almost all my weight back in 5 weeks (42 out of 47 lbs) and the muscle strength (few weeks in the gym).
Very good points. 20 years ago I used to go frequently and watch one particular healer in Bucharest (his name was Valeriu Popa). He was giving different diets to people combined with water fasts. I've followed closely and seen many ugly diseases (terminal cancers for instance) solved.
I myself tried many things (yoga, homeopathy, diets, fasts etc) to improve my general health level and the only one that had a dramatic effect was the water fast longer than 10 days.
I am fasting for three days right now, My question is once I finish can i eat yougurt? I have been a vegetarian my whole life and never have ate meat, during the process of opening mh last business, i took so much care of the community, I literally just forgot about myself, so this fast is for an alignment bewteen my mind body and soul. I would like to take my next fast with juiced Tomatoes and peppers without salt ofcousre but I don't know if that fasting. Right now I am on a fresh juices only.
I have fasted for different periods of time up to 30 days and this is a very good video. Even over 30 days I continue with a full schedule though I do make sure I can rest when I need to.
It's not a big deal and just requires small amounts of discipline moment to moment....and a lot of courage to stick with it and not give up. Timing is important, as is attitude.
One more thing, I never listen to anyone who hasn't done this and don't tell anyone when I am doing it apart from my partner.
Last year I fasted for 10 days. But not strict; I ate one piece of vegetable, two rice cakes without salt and a piece of fruit. That way my digestive system went on working anyway. Sounds like a diet, but I got all the benefits of a fast, like raised consciousness; being happier and more energetic. I'm going to try it this year too ! Great way to solve personal problems and find balance! Thanx for the video x
I can relate to that. I used to fast, but it was chemically induced, and I managed to drop about 35 pounds in a few months. I would not recommend that to anyone else though, cause your brain go's fast to, and eventually you gain all the weight back.
Amen. I eat 1 meal every 48 hours and I'm a vegetarian.I'm 53 years old and have the energy I had when I was 23.You can train your body to do what ever your mind wants it to do.
@fntime Your comment sounds like an attack on me.You should ask yourself why you have this response?I know why,but you probably don't.Here is a hint.You're envious of what I can do.Know that you can do it too.Most of the comments on the subject in here are positive.Your ego must attack the spirit in here so it can have an excuse to continue to rule your body in unhealthy living.You also have a problem with discipline.Your true enemy are forces within you that only you can root out.
@JackHighlander Thats a good question.I,ve never counted my caloric intake and I guess it's because I eat the best of foods.When I feel full,I stop eating.But I'm going to guess I take in maybe 1000 calories.I drink 16 oz of water per day and sometimes 16oz of fruit or vegetable juice of my fasting days.
A bit of emotional awakening occurs which I always attribute to fatigue. Toxic thoughts trying to suface never occurred to me. I suppose the mind holds toxins by the way of thoughts. Interesting.
I am about 20hrs into a fast as we speak :0...its going good.......I'm shooting for three days with only a quart of water each day.......wish me luck lol
I used to do it when i was very religious, then i kinda stopped. but it felt refreshing and renewing. When you do it, i recommend to do it when you don't have a lotta stuff to think about and just relax. It's great for introspection and transcendental thinking.
A person who eats balanced and healthy diet may still experienced accumulation of toxins in the body. How? The water one drinks is polluted, the air one breaths in polluted, some vegestables and fruits that some called them Organic are not necessarily truly organic, some growers cheat with their produce to make profits. It is potentially possible the some foods are contaminated with some form of toxins and end up in ones body.
Two questions. Do you know if fasting can essentially cure oneself of cold sores/oral herpes and side effects incurred from pharmaceuticals that play with hormones, like Propecia?
i'm on my third day of water fasting. i'm going for 10 days, but it takes a lot of discipline. i think i'm going to make it, but it's really hard. great video, lorax.
i fasted for the first time for 5 days, then ate, but it was unhealthy food. I experienced bad bowel movement but no headache. Is it harmful to do what i've done?
I've also heard about kidney failure from fasting, is that only if you don't drink enough water during your fast?
i recently fasted for 3 days on water alone. after that, I felt amazing. my body detoxed so much in only 3 days. you need to break your fast correctly though, research for yourself. I loved the results, and Im going to do a prolonged (3 weeks i hope) juice fast to finish detoxifying. FASTING IS THE CURE TO ALL DISEASES!!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
fasting is proved to not be healthy it is a stupid concept, no-one says that you should fast if they have half a brain, it doesn't cleanse toxins it promotes them. The body can remove toxins on it's own if you maintain a healthy diet. This flushing of toxins concept is so rediculous, it promotes liver and kidney damage and increase cholesterol and decreases HDL's which is good cholesterol. Religion is a delusional concept and so are you.
i fast once a week every wednesday.. i am very fit so im not sure if its the fasting but im sure fasting does improve mental clearness.. personal experience
Hi lorax2013. I just wanted to tell you that I really enjoy your videos. It is wonderful to see someone expressing these views. My daily experiences, not to mention the media, often leave me feeling quite alone. The development of my awareness has recently begun to focus upon the content of the many products I use in the day. Not just being aware of the sensation of the soap as I wash my hands, but of what it is made of. This is overwhelming for me. I have the general impression that most every
thing is poison. I think this is a symptom of the vast unawareness humanity suffers from, and not a strange plot such as intentional sedation of the masses. Anyway, thanks for you videos!
M and my wife wher broke one week so we went grocery shopping and bought the things we could only aford like canned green beans, chicken and potatos for the next week and through out that whole week we had hardly any energy and we were very sleepy but the week after thay we stayed eating the same food and we felt fine was that a detox symptom
Is pretty difficult, but some times it is more difficult than others, I would like to get 4 days in there. I remember Jesus mentioned, the multitude has been with me now three days, and had nothing to eat, and he said if he sent them away fasting, they would faint by the way, so he commanded the disciples, to command them to sit down on the green grass, and give them to eat.
I notice 2 days without food, or water,and 3 days with 1 medium size glass of water has been what I was able to manage, I believe I could go 3 days without food,and water, and even longer, If I lean more on the Lord, but if I have to do hard, physical labor, it is much more difficult I understand because your body is drained of reserves,but I hear 40 day fasts, without food,and water,seems unlikely, especially among those who are doing it, I believe no food,and no water, for more than three days
Yeah guys, listen to Doctors, they are all super fit humans in peak physical and spiritual shape ..BS! Fasting is natures cure for almost all diseases, do your research sheeple!
Ya, religious fast in Islam is no food between daylight hours. :) Unfortunately most people just pig out at night time and since your metabolism slows down and you eat more, you actually GAIN weight! But love the analysis, so spot on, no contradictions and I relate 100% :D
One of those HAS to be right! hahaha and 1 week ago was your birthday, you spend b'day on youtube? :| :( Poor you, FYI I woulda came to your party regardless of if you had a party haha, take care..
In this sick society even being a vegetarian is seen as "strange"! They won't think its strange when it only takes you 5 seconds to take a magnificent crap. It's practically a religious experience! Rock on, L-man.
I fast ever night from 10pm till 6am. Lots of great results =)

Fasting is part of many spiritual cultures. I've done two 30 day
fasts. But, if you fast without knowing what you are doing,
you can harm your body! If Jesus was manifesting as a
man, he drank water while fasting!
Your body detoxes very fast, 'poison in, poison going out'
even with water. Juice slows done the process but must
be strained to remove any 'bulk'. Also you will have
to 'enema' everyday, otherwise the poisons will be
reabsorbed into the body.

Though very attractive, the Ramadan type fast for instance is not effective since after a while i started to pig out at night. I just completed a 6 weeks water fast in November. It feels great. I regained almost all my weight back in 5 weeks (42 out of 47 lbs) and the muscle strength (few weeks in the gym).

Very good points. 20 years ago I used to go frequently and watch one particular healer in Bucharest (his name was Valeriu Popa). He was giving different diets to people combined with water fasts. I've followed closely and seen many ugly diseases (terminal cancers for instance) solved.
I myself tried many things (yoga, homeopathy, diets, fasts etc) to improve my general health level and the only one that had a dramatic effect was the water fast longer than 10 days.

I am fasting for three days right now, My question is once I finish can i eat yougurt? I have been a vegetarian my whole life and never have ate meat, during the process of opening mh last business, i took so much care of the community, I literally just forgot about myself, so this fast is for an alignment bewteen my mind body and soul. I would like to take my next fast with juiced Tomatoes and peppers without salt ofcousre but I don't know if that fasting. Right now I am on a fresh juices only.

I have fasted for different periods of time up to 30 days and this is a very good video. Even over 30 days I continue with a full schedule though I do make sure I can rest when I need to.
It's not a big deal and just requires small amounts of discipline moment to moment....and a lot of courage to stick with it and not give up. Timing is important, as is attitude.
One more thing, I never listen to anyone who hasn't done this and don't tell anyone when I am doing it apart from my partner.
Do it

Last year I fasted for 10 days. But not strict; I ate one piece of vegetable, two rice cakes without salt and a piece of fruit. That way my digestive system went on working anyway. Sounds like a diet, but I got all the benefits of a fast, like raised consciousness; being happier and more energetic. I'm going to try it this year too ! Great way to solve personal problems and find balance! Thanx for the video x

I can relate to that. I used to fast, but it was chemically induced, and I managed to drop about 35 pounds in a few months. I would not recommend that to anyone else though, cause your brain go's fast to, and eventually you gain all the weight back.

In Islam You have to fast for 30 days a year in specific month of the year.
fasting starts in islam from sunrise till sunset that day for the hole thirty days.
you will feel refreshed and lighter and healthier after two days or three.

@JackHighlander Thats a good question.I,ve never counted my caloric intake and I guess it's because I eat the best of foods.When I feel full,I stop eating.But I'm going to guess I take in maybe 1000 calories.I drink 16 oz of water per day and sometimes 16oz of fruit or vegetable juice of my fasting days.

A person who eats balanced and healthy diet may still experienced accumulation of toxins in the body. How? The water one drinks is polluted, the air one breaths in polluted, some vegestables and fruits that some called them Organic are not necessarily truly organic, some growers cheat with their produce to make profits. It is potentially possible the some foods are contaminated with some form of toxins and end up in ones body.

I've also heard about kidney failure from fasting, is that only if you don't drink enough water during your fast?

i recently fasted for 3 days on water alone. after that, I felt amazing. my body detoxed so much in only 3 days. you need to break your fast correctly though, research for yourself. I loved the results, and Im going to do a prolonged (3 weeks i hope) juice fast to finish detoxifying. FASTING IS THE CURE TO ALL DISEASES!!!

fasting is proved to not be healthy it is a stupid concept, no-one says that you should fast if they have half a brain, it doesn't cleanse toxins it promotes them. The body can remove toxins on it's own if you maintain a healthy diet. This flushing of toxins concept is so rediculous, it promotes liver and kidney damage and increase cholesterol and decreases HDL's which is good cholesterol. Religion is a delusional concept and so are you.

Hi lorax2013. I just wanted to tell you that I really enjoy your videos. It is wonderful to see someone expressing these views. My daily experiences, not to mention the media, often leave me feeling quite alone. The development of my awareness has recently begun to focus upon the content of the many products I use in the day. Not just being aware of the sensation of the soap as I wash my hands, but of what it is made of. This is overwhelming for me. I have the general impression that most every

Is pretty difficult, but some times it is more difficult than others, I would like to get 4 days in there. I remember Jesus mentioned, the multitude has been with me now three days, and had nothing to eat, and he said if he sent them away fasting, they would faint by the way, so he commanded the disciples, to command them to sit down on the green grass, and give them to eat.
ShannCole888 2 years ago
I notice 2 days without food, or water,and 3 days with 1 medium size glass of water has been what I was able to manage, I believe I could go 3 days without food,and water, and even longer, If I lean more on the Lord, but if I have to do hard, physical labor, it is much more difficult I understand because your body is drained of reserves,but I hear 40 day fasts, without food,and water,seems unlikely, especially among those who are doing it, I believe no food,and no water, for more than three days

Ya, religious fast in Islam is no food between daylight hours. :) Unfortunately most people just pig out at night time and since your metabolism slows down and you eat more, you actually GAIN weight! But love the analysis, so spot on, no contradictions and I relate 100% :D
