• Fasting •

Fasting is the conscious choice not to consume food for a period of time. At the Centers of Light we use fasting for several purposes; fasting is an opportunity to turn our focus away from the material world and focus instead on the spiritual world. Fasting in preparation for a spiritual event or process can allow us to focus more fully on the spiritual world and experience more fully spiritual events.

Fasting can also be a conscious sacrifice that allows the positive movement of energy and grace to flow in a particular direction. By choosing to sacrifice one’s physical pleasure and comfort for a spiritual end, we create a vacuum that can then be filled by grace. This grace then infuses our goals with a greater power to manifest. Once a month the members of our Order are invited to fast and pray for world peace. A specific area of focus is given and each member can offer his or her own gift of fasting for the proliferation of personal and national peace on earth.
