This thread was initiated with hopes of possibly learning from the experiences of others who have fasted for extended lengths of time. "Unhealthy"? It appears that not many bothered to go to the link that was provided in the original post. "Life is short, why slow it down?" Our material life is relatively short compared to other forms of life, and that is exactly the reason to slow it down. "Bragging," just stating facts. "Anger," if it walks, talks, and looks like a duck..... How many people here have punched or slapped a face because of their own uncontrollable rage? Or even worse, who has done so to a child? "Hypocrite,"? There isn't one person alive who hasn't indulged in some form of unhealthy behavior, so anybody who points a finger at another in a belittling, berating, or negative manner is putting their own hypocrisy on display, permanently entrenched in the annals of internet history.
Buddha was fat,"? also inspiring of idol worship, spiritualism versus materialism, one can not be loyal to both.
To the gentleman that was homeless, it was the choices that you made that inevitably led to your homelessness. As unfortunate as your situation was, surely you must have learned something from that which has conditioned you to conduct your life in a more positive manner, so why refer to it in a negative manner? At this moment, I am sitting at a campsite in northern Idaho, overlooking a beautiful lake. My material "home" is about 3,000 miles away. Other than being greeted with the smiles and laughter of cherished loved ones, there is really not much difference between here and my "home." This place may not be my material home, but it is my spiritual home.
"The other side of CM,"? Sounds kind of bi-polar, disassociative identity disorderly, or even schizophrenic to me... There is no other side. This is life.
