Blog: The Master Cleanse Express
Mahatma Gandhi, the leader of India's independence movement in the 20's, 30's and 40's, once said that "fasting is the sincerest form of prayer."
In his footsteps many have begun fasting, even if just one day a week, for peace.
Among the more well-known people who are participating are: Cindy Sheehan, Susan Sarandon, Daniel Ellsberg, Sean Penn, Medea Benjamin, Dick Gregory, Willie Nelson, Bonnie Raitt, Alice Walker, Danny Glover, Ed Asner, Dolores Huerta, Lynn Woolsey, Cynthia McKinney, Rev. Bob Edgar, Rev. Al Sharpton, Howard Zinn, Kim Gandy and Patch Adams.
Of course, there are many reasons why we use the Master Cleanse fast, but one reason I choose to honor is to focus on peace and global awareness of the necessity to promote peace.
There is an upcoming event which I will also participate in which I would like to invite those who read here to also join in a peaceful effort to raise our personal and global awareness to the need for peace.

Thanks Leslie~!
The initial event is over, but I really hope that people
still go outside and look up and cast their prayer for
peace out into the ethers. I believe that I am not alone
in praying for peace, globally and personally, as well,
healing for the past and present.
I appreciate your support~~
many blessings,
Zoe
