Fasting is mentioned in the Bible but you don't here much about it nowadays, has anyone experimented with it and what were your experience.

I fasted one weekend and remember ifelt pain in my bones, but it was when my first wife left with my kids and I felt shock being in a house by myself.

Now all I have done is skip meals if I want to lose weight but no real fasting, I am interested if someone tried it and had a great benefit or had a vision.

I have tried, but I was never in a good enough mindset to be successful. Fasting is about sacrafice though I can tell you. It isn't just about skipping 1, 2, or 3 meals. It is about sacraficing something in your life. I've heard of people giving up all kinds of different things as a fast. What I have successfully given up and seen amazing things from is my time. When my second child was born, my life was a mess. I would set up at night after my husband and children would go to bed and read my bible and pray in the floor by flashlight (when I needed sleep) and I found a bond stronger than I'd ever known. It was amazing! I've lost that through the storms of life, but I'm hoping to get it back soon. Take care! angel2

My first experience with fasting came not has a voluntary experience, but has a captured soldier. Of that was gained a very good understanding of fasting, mental control, and entering a calm, slow space, similar to hibernation, deep meditation.

i have always wanted to do a mega fast ghandi style. I think I would probably die though. I am nothing but, skin and bones already. All of my idols have done it though, so it must be the right thing to do.

Yes, once for a month, many years ago. Only water and vit pills. After a while, you start crapping chemicals.. quite interesting. The bathroom smells like New Jersey on a good day laugh

Visions? Well I dreamt of liverwurst and sausages.. I could taste and smell them in my dream ... no joke laugh but did I have some sort of enlightning experience? No. Health benefits? No... but an excellent exercise in self-discipline.
