Dry Fasting Breaks the Ego

I feel like its malkoms account.. The user that replied in this thread. He was known as a new user to be using ai to construct posts as a new user

. And now he probably made this new account, to post this and see what others would reply to his posts because he is lost and seeking god.

 

He also lied about using chatbot, when it was very clear he was using one.

It's all your imagination, bro. And what kind of God am I looking for? Should I even look for Him? Or what are you hinting at? Or am I lacking love? Or do I have problems? What are you getting at? Or do you want to show me God? And if you don't want to, then why did you write this? What was the motive, what was the purpose of your writing? Or did you just say it from the heart? And what do you think your soul is like then? And if you didn't write this for me, but for the author, and it's none of my business, then why are you bringing me into the conversation when I'm not in the comments? Don't you think this is gossip? Is this backstabbing? When you're being kind, you can be a little clearer. Thank you.

I won't talk about the AI chat, because it's pointless, as I've already realized. There are people here with Dunning-Kruger syndrome, or maybe with more interesting characteristics.

P.S. I also noticed something interesting. After communicating with you, for some reason I get banned for a day? Are you a snitch? Is this how a conscious person behaves? Okay. I won't speculate. But it's quite curious and even funny.

P.P.S. If you really wanted to help me, you could have told me, dude, to smoke marijuana. Because I have PTSD, and marijuana relieves those symptoms, and stimulating the vagus nerve also relieves those symptoms. Put simply, go for a run or a walk, just regular deep breathing with the diaphragm engaged, and making guttural sounds, and also just rubbing your eyes. The larynx, diaphragm, and eyes are all connected to this nerve. But all of that is just symptomatic treatment; a deeper, more thorough level is needed.
But none of this has anything to do with Awakening, because these aren't thoughts, bro.

Is it possible to convince someone that they've been possessed by a dangerous idea? No! They have personal experience. But personal experience isn't a criterion for truth. Who am I writing this to? NO ONE. NO BO DY

I am backing this! Do not attempt dry fasting!! It's not worth the risk.

If you stop giving water to your body you can run into dangerous territory pretty quick! You certainly cannot avoid running into trouble after 3-5 days. The issue is not even so much the lack of water but your bodies reaction when you rehydrate it. Google refeeding syndrome !! It can have deadly side effects.

Also, is there a way to keep the ai trolls from polluting this forum with potentially dangerous content like this thread? @Leo Gura

What I shared was just my own experience, not advice and not something I expect anyone else to follow. And honestly, this forum openly discusses psychedelics all the time, and those carry real risks too, so it’s not like risky topics are new here.

I’m not claiming dry fasting is safe. I’m simply describing what it felt like for me. Whatever people decide to do or not do is entirely their own choice.

@TimStr 

You’re talking about dry fasting like you understand it, but it’s obvious you don’t. You’re looking at it from the surface, in a really one-sided way, and that’s why your take comes off so limited. There’s a deeper side to the experience you’re not considering at all, and if you want to criticize it, at least understand the full picture first.

Relax. If I were possessed by a dangerous idea, trust me, you’d notice. I’m pretty sure the only thing haunting this thread is your overthinking.

Well done. 14 days is impressive, and what you shared is very important, unfortunately most will always miss the deeper truth.

Its really easy to take substances, but do this right, you'll realize something else altogether. This is ancient purification ritual.

Rama, Buddha, Christ all taught this to their closer disciplines and circles, because you have to be ready, especially to do it alone.

A brother once did 40+ days, but most people shouldn't exceed 3 - 5 without a guide.

Dr Filinov has an excellent book on dry fasting.

Thank you for sharing

And yes when done right you no longer need food, it then becomes a choice of pleasure or play. You are nourished in another way

Thanks, man. I hear you. There’s a lot of depth in what you wrote, and I respect it. People forget where this stuff actually comes from and why it was done in the first place. Most of it gets lost in modern noise.

And yeah, I know very few can handle those levels. That’s why I don’t push anything on anyone. Everyone has their own capacity.

I’ll check out Filinov like you said. Appreciate the message.

It’s beautiful. You never feel more alive than when you reach that kind of state.

Moving this to the Health subforum should help reduce fantastical thinking.

Muslims do dry fasting in their holy month Ramadan . I tried it once from dawn to dusk.  It of course makes you very pure and connected to the present moment .your libido is killed to zero .all you dream about is a sip of water. Great dopamine detox also ..but what the heck are you doing 14 days ?

For me, going longer wasn’t about proving anything. It felt like every day pulled me a little deeper into myself. Not in some dramatic “body healing” way, but in that inner sense of stripping away noise. Old patterns, old fears, old impulses… they stop controlling you.

It’s more psychological than physical.

More existential than spiritual.

Every day feels like shedding another layer you didn’t even know you were carrying.

That’s what I mean when I say it felt like a kind of rebirth. Not magical. Not supernatural. Just a deeper clarity that comes from being completely alone with yourself, without any escape routes.
