We are Starting the Fasting Period!
We are Starting the Fasting Period!
WHEN ONE TAKES a closer look at the religions that were created in the last two millenniums, one can observe that they have all included, in their programs of fanaticisation of the public, a period of fasting. Most of the religions define a fasting period as a time of devotion and sacrifice of the believer to his God. The reality is, if fasting is defined in the context of sacrifice of the believer to his God, all year long would be declared a period of fasting.
We will not waste our time on the excuses that are invented by religions to give to their believers the impression that they were giving them something spiritual. This situation of speculation around facts and the world that existed long before the religious explanation, is not unknown nowadays. Everything destined to keep the individual enslaved in the depths of the slave ship by giving him all the reasons to believe that he is better that way. It is up to the individual that wants to free himself and pursue the normal course of his destiny to understand the almost invisible nature of the chains that maintain us in the position of victim and accomplice of the ideological currents that are fighting over the control of this world.
Fasting is born because of the Neteru (Gods) of the Second Trinity: Wsr, Heru, and Aishat. Wsr presented himself to humanity as a God with a human face and fulfilled all the human conditions. As a God, He died, and in the World of the Dead He created an empire: the Kingdom of the Dead into which we enter when we die. Wsr organised a tribunal that judges us and decides the course of our next reincarnation according to the actions we performed on Earth. As a God, He resuscitated for the redemption of the living.
The history of this God, that dies to judge the dead and resuscitated for the redemption of the living is, without a doubt, the most popular history of humanity. It is the story of this God of the Second Trinity and Holy Drama of His life that inspired all the Judaeo-Christian doctrines, especially the idea that a God could adopt a human appearance, the idea of death and resurrection, the judgement of the dead, and the concept of purgatory and heaven, etc.
According to the cosmogonic presentation of the Holy Drama, the God Wsr died on the 17th of the month of Ateeri, killed by Seth (the father of what we commonly call Satan today). On the date of the 24th of the month of Kairika, the body of the God of the Dead was embalmed and three days later on the 27th, the 10 days of fasting starts. During these days of fasting, one will not eat, drink, copulate, or smoke from sunrise to sunset, but in the night one is free of restrictions until dawn.
For the individual in search of the true face of existence, these ten days of fasting is our way of accompanying the God in His journey from the World of the Living to the World of the Dead. The 29th of Kairika is considered the official date of mourning for the God.
This is the story hidden behind the diverse sorts of fasting that are talked about by the modern religions. Despite the fact that they find the idea of spiritual fasting seductive, they still battle with the difference between a monotheistic concept and the world that was there before them.
It is very important for the individual that is interested in the origins of our thoughts as humans today to understand that, when the Greeks and Romans wanted to introduce new doctrines to the world, they found a world that was already full and without any empty room for philosophical creation. This didn’t leave any other choice to these young people, thirsty for adventure and willing to influence the destiny of the world, but to try to “reinvent the world”. This means that they tried to recreate the world of their dreams but from the same basis as their predecessors, using the pre-existing elements. This is why it’s very important, for them, that the whole world returns to a state of complete ignorance. The reality is that the world does not ever leave room for a new imagination. We are not conditioned to wander in space and time without a history solid enough to keep us inside a dimension of our species. The future cannot be built; it comes as a normal consequence of what we have been in the past. The rest is just confusion introduced on our path. Amadou Hampate Ba, an African wise man, said, “If a man trying to run away from his destiny travels incognito, he will find when he gets there that his destiny has preceded him and found a bed for both of them.”
We must recognise that we do more than just the fasting in our pursuit of the destiny of Wsr, the God that dies and resurrects; we follow Him through that experience. We also die every night and resuscitate at dawn. Sleep is the image of death. The consciousness sleeps so that it can allow the soul to transcend the two worlds and go and educate itself close to the God Wsr about the conditions of the existence in the World of the Dead. It is the corruption that is introduced by the new doctrines that slows down our awareness of the two worlds, but as it is said by the priests of M’TAM, “The soul only recognises the paths it has taken before.”
