Welcome to the Diner! Come join us for a slice of mental pie.
For the curious — the quote Lisa couldn’t remember from Way of the Ascetics is this: “He who fasts much is he who loves much.”
This week we are talking about fasting and eros. Take a listen and contemplate the following ideas:
Think about fasting as purifying eros and feasting as intensifying it.
Think about our own power of eros, our desiring power and what happens when we get what we want, what we desire.
Do we often get what we want?
How does not getting what we want now help us to want the right things?
