Fasting in the monastic community is considered an ascetic practice, a “dhutanga” practice. Dhutanga means “to shake up” or “invigoration”. The Buddha, as is well known, emphasized moderation, the Middle Way that avoids extremes, in all things. Fasting is an additional method that one can take up, with supervision, for a time.

The world is full of atheists. The proof being, no one recognizes the combination
of time and space as the boundless blessings of nature. This is the reason why
everyone is trying to make their life successful depending upon their brain,
desires and so-called religious hypocrisies...and the end result is right in front of
us.
