Cultivating your spirituality
Chanting, meditation, fasting — and the spiritual character of the days of the week.
Chanting and meditation are nutrition for the soul. Fasting periodically helps, too — and Monday is the best day. The number of people who fast through the week is shaped by the number who fast on Mondays. Here is the spiritual background of the days of the week — a mix of Vedic and pre-canonite / Nile Valley traditions, older than Christianity.
