Break Fast

(Remember to turn your photos on in the email if you haven’t, it important for this post…)

It’s been a few days since I broke the fast and I’m back home from the South of France and there were some very interesting developments that I want to tell you all about…

The morning of break fast we took a lovely trek through the countryside to walk up to the village near by and that proved to be a perfect choice.

Cannes

We went to Cannes this afternoon. Yeah, Cannes of the Film Festival! I was totally excited and the city didn’t disappoint. Sitting on the French Riviera, watching the chic whilst sipping sparkling water, sure beats having it in my office.

Aviation

And then I hung out in Cannes Airport behind the scenes in an airplane hanger with a bunch of French aviation geeks. It’s a different world I had a very little idea about.

Jexi

The adventure began at 3 am, by 6.30 I was in the airport. Immigration was a breeze, we were through everything and in the lounge no more than 25 mins later.

The plane was practically empty and as we took off, I took a chance with a goofy sounding movie called Jexi. It’s about a nerdy phone addicted dude who is a total loser. One day his phone breaks and he has to get a new one. Unbeknownst to him, it has a very advanced form of AI. From that point on it’s pure comedy! I laughed so loud, on so many occasions, I had people in the plane giving me that look. You know that look!

Doubts

It’s day 17 and doubts again start to circle my mind. **I was up at 3 am this morning.**It’s getting earlier and earlier. I tried to deal with the ant infestation that seems to be attacking my room and then meditated for about 30 mins. I felt distracted and couldn’t go on.

Then doubts kept rising in my mind. 4 days more, can I do it? Going on an adventure to a place world famous for its food and I can’t have any? I kept dreaming about different foods and how they taste, how they would be so scrumptious etc… needless to say this was all just going on in my mind.

Adventure

I am going on an adventure soon, a surprise location to be revealed later, and as with the times, I had to get a covid test this morning.

Like true superheroes, we were wearing masks. Turns out I have passed with flying colors and with any luck I should be on my way in the next 48 hrs.

The Bramamuhutra

Also known as the Ambrosial hour starts about an hour and a half before sunrise. As it happens, I woke up at 3.30 am this morning. (It helps that I slept around 8.30 pm.)

Introduction

For those of you new here, I have been on a water fast, supplemented by coconut water for the last 15 days. I consume about a litre of fresh or raw coconut water between the late afternoon to evening. I do light cardio & weights on most days. In addition to this, I meditate 2 or 3 times a day. This is The Vikid Fast Protocol so far, and once I am done. I will publish the details in a comprehensive organized manner that anyone could choose to follow or adapt for their own needs.

Energy & Emanations

14 days have past without food and I feel better for it. Who would have thought?

My energy is still great. I was up at 3 am this morning. After trying to force myself to sleep unsuccessfully, I finally got out of bed at 4am. I broke another rule (what are rules for?) and watched two fabulous interviews on ConsciousTV and Buddha at the Gas Pump. Both are wonderful channels that explore spirituality with authenticity. Try them out!

Trinity

The mind is a genuine trickster. It can make things which are real unreal and unreal real. Over the last two weeks I have found that I am separating from it. It’s a separation between the Thinking Mind, Body and Intuition. And I am beginning to see that these aspects a very much different things and at the same time they are part of the same unity, a Trinity.

Bowels

What can I say, the fasting has become so normal now that it doesn’t require or consume much thought and though as a reader you may not want to hear this, I have to talk a little about bowel movements. One day, you may actually attempt a similar feat and it would be prudent for me to give you an accurate picture.

Firstly, at the beginning stages, if you’ve followed so far (see day 1), you will know that I took some Magnesium Citrate and spent the night in the bathroom, not hilarious, that helped clear most of the junk at the outset.

Novelty

So, there were some interesting developments yesterday in another wise mundane day. Firstly, I have noticed that the fact that I have eaten anything in 11 days, aside from water and a little coconut water, has become something of a total ordinary affair. Neither my mind, my body or my heart have any complaint and even the novelty of it has worn away. I wonder how long this state of affairs is going to last? Will I just coast the rest of the way or is there something in store for me, a secret surprise!

On Curves

Well we’ve reached the half way point, an inflection and now the real question is whether my progress will be parabolic or exponential, as I think anything linear is out of the question. Am I a Tom, Billy or Sean?

Feeling Chinese

In terms of developments there is not much to report. I’m losing weight steadily, for the most part, hunger doesn’t play a big role, though I do miss the rituals of food. These days when I am upset or out of sorts, I can’t go to my usual bag of insanely spicy corn crisps, so yum, or sneak down to the local Chinese and gorge on the savory delights.

Breaking Rules

So I’ve broken a rule. Why not? This is my fast and I do as I please, as circumstances warrant…

A few days ago I was clearing out an old todo list buried in the recesses of my phone. This has been part of my routine the last few days, to get old cruft either done or deleted and I came across a single name “Jim Dreaver”.

I couldn’t remember it meaning anything and I was about to dismiss the task, permanently wiping it from my memories when I decide to do a quick lookup.

So a Coconut met a coconut… and it was good!

Pure nectar, in fact nothing tastes so good. For the last few months I have been buying this amazing raw coconut water from Thailand. Raw as in, unpasteurized, without heat treatment.

Then it occurred to me, why not just buy the real thing? I mean it’s not that expensive here.

Now let’s do the calculations:

1 bottle of Raw Coconut Water costs $5.7 at 500ml = $11.4 / ltr
1 Real Coconut costs $1.08 at approximately 250ml = $4.4 / ltr

Celebrate

Time to sing!

Celebrate good times, come on!
It’s a celebration
Celebrate good times, come on!
Let’s celebrate

There’s a party goin’ on right here
A celebration to last throughout the years
So bring your good times, and your laughter too
We gonna celebrate your party with you…

It’s a seven day party here and I know you can feel that boogie too!

To tell you the truth I never thought I’d get here. It feels wonderful and I feel great. There’s something about the body that switches gears when you stop eating. Firstly, I would like to dissuade you of the myth of “Starvation Mode” and pictures of people in concentration camps or kids with distended bellies. Not that it doesn’t happen, but that it doesn’t happen in the first 7 days. I am living proof.

This fasting is a funny thing. You can feel like your cruising one minute and feel like your crashing the next. The main thing is to learn how to ride the waves.

For example, this morning I went for another Vikid Freestyle Walk. 45-50 mins. I did everything, handstands, duck walk, near walk, monkey jumps, pseudo-sprints, press ups, dips, yadi yada…

I felt pretty good when I got home, I’d say like 60% but before I got in the shower I crashed to about 15%. I guessed I just needed a quick rest so I lay down on the floor Shavasana style and focused on my heart beat (high) and breathing (normal). Within 3 minutes I was fine and have been fine ever since.

It’s day 5 and I feel like I’m cruising . Last night I went for a short cycle maybe 8 km and this morning I discovered a new way of walking. It’s called The Vikid Freestyle. It really is surprising that I feel like going out and working out. I am putting no pressure on myself to do this and I’m not over exerting myself either. My energy is better while fasting, go figure 🧐.

The Vikid Fast - Day 4 of 20

Tue, 11 Aug 2020 05:03:22 +0000

Yesterday, coming close to the evening, I had my first thoughts of giving up. I have been expecting this and I am sure there are going to be other challenging days. The desire to give up was less to do with hunger. It was more to do with boredom, of being deprived of the demonic lust, the need to gorge and to consume.

I am not at a retreat being pampered and massaged. I have have no guru looking after me and no group to commiserate with. Not that I want it. Nor do I have any need to whine but I do have to work normal days, I have real world problems and we are in a grueling year, all the more reason to quit. I was ogling potato chips still lying on the bedroom table, the chilly sauce in my fridge, I was planning on sneaking in a little sweet or perhaps a sugar free gum. How could that do any harm? No one would know right?

Summary First…

I am going strong but it’s getting deep. Let’s start in the middle and go reverse to the beginning and end up at the end or wherever… Invert and twist the circle, if you know what I mean.

This morning I woke up at 6 am without an alarm and it’s been months and months since I have naturally felt like meditating but today I did.

I sat down cross legged on a comfortable sofa, adjusted my posture and just allowed things to be. No special attention on breathing, not trying to remove thoughts, only allowing things to be… and again awesomeness happened. I went very deep for about 40 mins. No alarms, bells or whistles. No agenda when to come out. Thoughts and images 30 years old appeared. I just let them be, I contemplated how they made me feel and where necessary forgave myself for what I did.

The Vikid Fast - Day 2 of 20

Sun, 09 Aug 2020 07:47:37 +0000

So last night I went out to a really cute Mexican restaurant with the hosts, a couple with two kids the same age as ours. They have had a rotten time with the lockdown. It’s hard to fathom how bad the lockdowns have destroyed people’s lives. It does really make me question what we are doing as a society and what we can do better.

They were kind enough to offer not eating but the restaurant wouldn’t have it. New Covid rules, got to order food if you want a drink, makes sense right? So we got a bowl of Guacamole that smelt insanely fresh and I watched them nibble at it while sipping cocktails all night long. No issues, I felt rock solid and it was great to be out with friends. So, its only been two days but you don’t need to lose your social life while fasting. This may change 😂.

Hello Dear Friends!

So the fast began just over 24 hrs ago and yesterday, in the evening, I took this tangerine potion just to help things along.

That’s Magnesium Citrate and works well for relaxing your bowels. The only problem being that I miscalculated my timings (taking it at 6pm) and ended up on the shitter all night. Lord help me. So first things first, I had practically no sleep as I was out of bed every half hour for a bathroom run. If any of you want to try this technique out then please write to me personally and I can give you some tips, first one being, take it early!
