277. Commusings: The Physical and Spiritual Dimensions of Fasting

What do Jesus, Muhammad and the Buddha have in common? All three went on extended spiritual journeys, and as part of these inward quests they all suspended their consumption of food. This musings delves into the detailed physiology of fasting, but even in the depths of the science, there's always an appreciation that in describing the minutiae of the mitochondria we are also appreciating the universe’s cosmic intelligence. Commusings is our format where we take a moment to think deeply on the topics of spirituality, philosophy, and culture.
