Hello Everyone So In This Thread I will be Sharing my experiences here in abstinence and Displinary exercises, This Thread doesn’t discuss Magick itself but this Journal is geared towards trance work by, so allow me explain what I mean when I say “this thread is geared towards Trancework” I have been experimenting a little with Asceticism,
Asceticism is derived from the Greek word Askesis I can’t find a direct translation but it seems to mean something, like “Excersise, Training, Discipline” Things of this nature.
And it refers to “self denial” “self discipline” “carnal rejection of matter and pleasures” also “mortification of the flesh” therefore meaning "that which is abstinence from carnal pleasures and the that which is rejected of all physical matter, and that which denies the physical self, etc. This is all I have to say on this matter, Please don’t get mad at me I’m just The Scribe.
So Basically I did an Experiment.
One Day I wanted to fast…but I…indulged in eating kinda junk food and a bunch of shit…
I ended up being really tired and drained and I wasn’t in a state that I wanted to start fast,
I wait until next day, so let me explain, what I mean by “I wait until next day” So Basically…I wake up, in the morning, tired and kinda feeling like shit, and I say to my self…“You may eat, but of no junk food, shalt thou eat, and eat but ye shalt not eat in excess” So I only eat whole, unproccessed, food, eggs, teas, bread, onion, yogurt, etc and I started my fast around midnight, I’ve fasted today until around 6pm, (was going to fast longer but I was forced to break it) I noticed that I didn’t crave or think about food, and I was only drained and kinda hungry for a short period of time, and then It ended, this is all I have to say for now
