  • ​​
    A complete fast is a complete and literal denial of self. It is the truest prayer.
  • A genuine fast cleanses the body, mind and soul. It crucifies the flesh and, to that extent, sets the soul free." 
  • What the eyes are for the outer world, fasts are for the inner.
  • My religion teaches me that whenever there is distress which one cannot remove, one must fast and pray.
  • Fasting will bring spiritual rebirth to those of you who cleanse and purify your bodies. The light of the world will illuminate within you when you fast and purify yourself.
M
​ohandas Karamchand Gandhi

(1869 - 1948)​
