Anaharin – traditional, authentic process for revitalization, improvement of health, purification of the body and mind

ANAHARIN or black fasting with water alone is a procedure often used in Abheda Yoga, studied at our school as part of the lessons on Ayusya – long life techniques.
The main prejudice related to this process is the illusion that man “functions” due to the chemical energy that comes from the oxidative phenomena of substances from food that take place in the body.

I mean, food is supposed to be some kind of “fuel” for our bodies.

If you have more food, then you have more energy and vice versa. This is a false assertion. Almost every person has found that there are many situations when he ate a lot, but had no energy, but also situations in which he ate little or not at all and was very energetic.

Inside each of us there is a doctor, we just have to help him carry out his activity. The natural power of each being to heal itself is the greatest possible capacity for healing. What we eat should be medicine. Our medicine should be our own food.

But eating when we’re sick means feeding our disease.

Hippocrates

Instead of using cures (medicines) it is better to fast for a day.

Plutarch

The body has a wise system of recovery, purification and recovery

An animal, when it is sick, its natural instinct tells it to refuse food. After the acute state of the disease is overcome and the internal self-healing activity is coming to an end, the appetite naturally returns, on its own.
The human body also has this instinct to enter the state of refusal of food just like the animal. Observing the return of appetite as a result of the exit from the state of illness, man most often proceeds anapoda, forcing food consumption in the idea that eating somehow means additional regenerative energy, or, inexplicably, the elimination of that condition.

The main scientifically recognized advantage of using black fasting with water alone is the fact that most of the immune system’s defense capabilities are massaged into the digestive tract.
There the fight is fierce, because on one side is the food in the process of digestion, with all kinds of bacteria, yeasts, fungi and parasites, and on the other side is our blood that takes the nutrients and prana from this heterogeneous mixture.

That’s why up to 80% of the immune defense capacity is here in the digestive tract. This means that during water-only black fasting, the strength of the immune system suddenly increases a lot, since there is no more food in the digestive tract. The defense capabilities of the being are used for other threats, such as the various diseases that we may have.

Fasting is as old as human existence is

Historical sources show that people fasted over time motivated by various aspects.
The ancients believed in this practice of fasting with a purifying and healing effect and writings such as those of Hippocrates, Plato, Aristotle, Galen and Avicenna support it.
It is said that Pythagoras did not admit to receiving as his disciples those who did not first go through a stage of personal self-purification through fasting.
For all types of fever as well as in the acute stages of diseases Hippocrates prescribed either a strict fast with water and teas specific to the respective condition, or an extremely light diet, consisting exclusively of liquids.

Benefits of the ANAHARIN process

Dphysically

• At the root of most health problems is self-intoxication, and this is also the reason why fasting has such a wide therapeutic effectiveness;
• gives the digestive organs a necessary break
• and the rest of the body an extra energy (from reserves) that it will invest in self-healing achievable through detoxification;
• it is easy to maintain from a technical point of view, it does not require special information or an hourly or food schedule;
• heals or helps in the cure of any disease;
• the excessive fat layer is reduced without the need for that strong will necessary for long-term restrictive diets;
  improves fat metabolism;
• energy levels are increasing;
• the skin becomes silky, soft and sensitive;
• helps to relieve less pleasant phenomena related to the menstrual cycle, reduce the amount of bleeding and associated suffering;
• generates phenomena of rejuvenation and prolongation of life.

Spiritual

• Fasting offers the opportunity to transcend the many types of karma, addictions and attachments related to food, but not only.
• With the increase in mental clarity, the precious deepening in self-awareness is achieved.
• Temporarily freed from the need to satisfy physical hunger, the person turns his attention to spiritual nourishment and emotional balance.
• “burning” a significant amount of karma
• raising the vibrational frequency of the inner state;
• the orientation with ease towards that which is spiritual, harmonious, universally valid;
• the amplification of the will that can then be oriented in any other direction and the increase of our ability to perform yogic tapas;
• subtle protection and auric purification, although the auric intensity may temporarily decrease during the process;
• transcending many types of addictions and attachments related to food, but not only;
• mental clarity is improved;

How is ANAHARIN – water fasting performed and how long does it last?

During the period we establish, we do not consume food, but only water (in some cases, and some herbal infusions).
It is good to keep as much as possible in periods of 7 days: 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49. These special durations will be achieved as appropriate, and under medical and yoga teacher monitoring.

Importance of water consumption

Attention

Never, both from the point of view of health and from the spiritual point of view, is there a black fast without water.
Black fasting without water is profoundly harmful to health and is a gesture that denotes ignorance or even stupidity (which we know are, in a general and objective way, the cause of suffering).

During water fasting, the phenomena of purification and detoxification are accelerated, as well as those of “burning” karma (especially negative karma). The tongue can become loaded, the kidneys are overloaded due to the evacuation of toxins, while most of the body experiences a phenomenon of relaxation and relaxation. If we do not drink water, the task of the kidneys and liver is very difficult, when, otherwise, it would have been very easy for us to help them by performing a gesture that is, however, simple: to drink water.

Quantity
It is good to consume a certain amount of water regardless of thirst, effort, outside temperature, etc. because it intensifies exchanges at the cellular level and helps to eliminate toxins from the body faster. The recommended amounts differ depending on several factors, with the consumption of a minimum amount of 1.5 liters per day being maintained. On the other hand, we cannot fail to notice that, in this case, although fasting is also kept for the restoration and rest of the internal organs, the kidneys will still have intense work.
On the other hand, there are many who have noticed that they regain their weakened strength and combat the unpleasant symptoms of fasting with the help of drinking water when those problems arise.

Black fasting is prohibited for:

– persons who have not reached the age of 18; but if a doctor or wise parents of a child or adolescent decide that he or she should practice ANAHARIN, he or she must take into account the necessary medical and legal prudence;
– pregnant women;
– women during the period of breastfeeding and lactation;
– those who suffer from eating disorders (anorexia, bulimia, etc.);
– people with severe anemia;
– those suffering from type I diabetes, dependent on insulin;
– anyone who has suffered a heart attack;
– people suffering from the disease called Porphyria (a metabolic genetic defect);
– those who suffer from that rare genetic deficiency that prevents proper ketosis;
– persons suffering from mental disorders because they may not be able to go through the detoxification stage of the black fast without proper medical supervision.
