The Last Day of Ramzaan ! Fasting ,Ego and Sprituality
Today is the last day of ramzaan tommorrow is Eid ul fitr ! it has been a wonderful month in this month we gain lots of benefits not only physically but mentally and spritually fasting affects your body and mind in a good manner , people usually thinks fasting is bad for health not eating food and not drinking water can produce health issues but that is not the case when you fast your body gets in rest state from 1 day of fasting your blood pressures drops and you posses mental clarity and focused after few days you gain a lot of concentration because your digestive system is at ease means its not longer digesting food your body starts cleansing itself from top to bottom .most of the energy we waste when digesting food and we eat in every hour don't we !
Also fasting helps us to control our desire and emotions it makes us stronger mentally and physically , and we become peaceful we can also utilize our lunch time , because we don't eat food we tend to focus more on our tasks, every time we eat food our brain has to spend energy to digest the food and when this is happening we lose our ability to focus for sometime that is why after eating food we feel sleepy and don't want to do any mental tasks .
The most interesting part now is about ego, in ramzaan we also train our ego, by fasting it becomes weak when we fast ,our desire and wanting like feeling vanishes , we don't get those random thoughts ,negativity ,feeling of anger ,fear and loosing control . at a subtle level we all are living our life like this not doing anything about it we have been manipulated by our ego every time . remember the moment you don't want to get burnout or angry but you did and later on, you regret it and even you were scared about it , you are eating food you had enough but you want to have the last tasty bite of food .
Some people are so controlled by their ego that they have left humanity in them those are the people who are murderer
, robbers , rapists and thugs ,their ego has taken them there heart is sealed there minds are blind they live for pleasure of the world and they can do anything for that
we in our day to day life also suffered from the impact of our ego , sometimes its in form of thoughts or feelings , you are sitting alone your mood is happy suddenly a thought pops up reminding you about your past the time you were embarrassed in your classroom ,the time when people were laughing at you or the fear of failure ,fear of approaching to your crush ,sadness. our ego keeps reminds our selves about our past mistake and keep dragging us from freeing our selves, are we really in our control or we controlled by our ego .
How can we stop this behaviour this automatic process and patterns which are instilled in us very strongly and we had tried a lot to ignore it but some how its still there , you cannot change your thought process or suddenly become positive in 1 day ,you have to keep practicing positivity you have to keep remind your self that i am responsible for my self to not to get the feeling of sad , anger or negativity even its feels like you cant do it its not working ,you have to pretend that its working and it will one day ,you have to develop a habit of
smiling in feeling of sadness keep calm in anger it all is practice you don't need to have reason for that just do it .
Let us not become easily manipulated by our ego make war against it !
yes, fasting can train us to be patient and more sincere about everything that happens
