I just finished the easiest fast ever, a 10-day wheat fast taught to disciples by the master Peter Deunov. It's more of a diet. I learned it from Ivanka Grambelova, who has a book on fasting by the master. If it was in English, I would get it. She says he teaches that one can fast to develop certain qualities, depending on the month. February is the best month for health. Ivanka's husband did the wheat fast one February after his doctor told him his cholesterol was too high. After the fast he went back to the doctor and the doctor found that his cholesterol was normal. He was dumbfounded.
Whatever month you do the fast, it should begin after the full moon and before the new moon. All you need for the fast is plenty of hot water to drink (8 cups a day), 2.2 pounds of bulger wheat, divided into 10 equal parts, 3 apples a day, and 9 walnuts a day. Each night, put .22 pounds (about 3.6 ounces) of wheat in a thermos, pour 2 cups of boiling water in and seal. In the morning, open the thermos and pour out the wheat water. Mix with honey and lemon and drink. Spoon the wheat out and divide it into three portions for three meals. Add the walnuts to the wheat. You can sweeten the wheat with honey. I put a quarter teaspoon of raw honey in my mouth while sipping my cups of hot water. Peter Deunov said it's better to do this than dissolving it in the water, but you can put lemon juice in it. Don't put any salt in the wheat, except on the last day.
It's important to chew the wheat slowly, at least 99 times, to absorb the etheric particles. Eat the apples between meals. Look at the apple and thank it. After eating bury the core and seeds. Before eating your first meal, after blessing it, say, "God, admit me in the hospital of nature for 10 days." During the fast, don't entertain any negative thoughts and get plenty of sunshine. Sungaze as often as possible.
On the 10th day, break the fast with potato soup. Cut one peeled potato into small pieces, cut half an onion, add salt. Bury the scraps. Steam the potato and onion and use the remaining water for the soup. Add parsley, lemon and pepper.
I feel great and I lost about 12 pounds. I highly recommend this fast. Ivanka promised she would translate the fasting book and tell what qualities are developed during the other months.
