So started fasting Sunday night, water and urine only but decided to do a absolute dry fast for Ekadashi which lasted 36hrs, I broke the fast just now with my urine I had collected over the 36hrs.
Brother Atma (water and urine) and brother Milen also joined the fast (water only). Brother Atma and I are going for a longer deeper fast. This dry fast was to observe Ekadashi
Ekadashi is a powerful time to fast. Whosoever observes a complete fast on this sacred day has his sins completely removed, obtains continuous happiness, and achieves all good fortune.
Better than giving horses in charity is giving elephants, and better than giving elephants is giving land. But better still than giving land is the giving of sesame seeds, and better than that is giving of gold. Still better than giving gold is giving food grains for all the forefathers, demigods (devas), and human beings become satisfied by eating grains. Thus there is no better gift of charity than this in the past, present or future. Just recently learned about Ekadashi from brother Milen. God bless you all 🙏🏽
