Fasting is an advanced spiritual discipline that purifies the physical body, and creates increased awareness of the subtle spiritual force. This spiritual force is always present, though perceived in varying degrees by each person. Through the process of fasting, we re-focus the cellular consciousness of the body, and increase the life-force streaming within us. This increased light-flow brings a feeling of great bliss, lightness, and connection to sacred source. When done in the context of living an enlightened life, fasting speeds spiritual evolution, and ultimately shows us the truth of immortal life. (more…)

In the western mystical traditions, candidates for initiation must first receive the sacrament of purification before being admitted into an esoteric order for study and practice. In the Egyptian Rosicrucian initiatory schools, purification practices included fasting, ritual bathing and secluded meditation. Mediaeval alchemists and healers focused on cleansing and purifying the internal organs to raise their energetic awareness. Most modern occult rituals also call for the immediate ceremonial purification of new members as they are brought into the temple to take their vows.

In the yoga traditions of the east, purification practices also play a valuable role in preparing oneself to devote body-mind and soul to seek the higher life. These methods include the internal cleansing of all bodily openings where energy flows into and out of the being. Fasting, special herbs and dietary restrictions are used to aid the attainment of more subtle states of consciousness. (more…)

Food, by which I mean pure and natural plants, was given as a gift to humanity by the one creator. It not only nourishes the body, it is also the supreme medicine for all illness and disease. Awareness of the sacred power of natural living foods is enhanced by consciously connecting with the earth. Yes, it is important to eat the life-giving raw foods, but it is perhaps more important to actually feel your oneness with the earth from where this nourishment comes.

Spend time in nature, away from cities and crowds. Eat outdoors whenever possible. Grow your own food in whatever way you can. Meditate and consciously give thanks for the life-force that you are about to receive before you eat any food. The plants of the earth are divine alchemical agents that transmute sunlight, seed, soil and water into superior human nutrition. When you realize the vast intelligence and perfection that created this food, your relationship with food and with life will become an endless blessing. As you transcend previously held beliefs about food, you begin the journey to true self-knowledge and spiritual awakening. (more…)

Yesterday was the first day for a new group of spiritual explorers to begin a Living Light home retreat that I am facilitating. Already, members are sharing the abundance of light and love that has begun to stream forth for each of them. Here are a few of the comments from the group members as of day 2 of this amazing 21 day journey to greater health, life and light…

“This program is good for all types of people. It is a positive healthy way to live. Chavah has made this 21 day program free for the first 20 people.
