Re: Colon cleansing during a Water Fast.
I agree with you, and you make a lot of sense.
Found this at the start of the fasting book I was looking for. seems to speak to the question at hand...
nature understands no jesting.
She is always true, always serious,
always severe. She is always right
and errors are always those of man.
She despises the man incapable
of appreciating her,
and only to the apt, the pure and true
does she reveal her secrets.
Goethe
I don't take the above in a fire-and-brimstone way, but it speaks (to me)of letting the
Water Fast PROCESS be simple, rather than overdirecting, or micro-managing it. "water only", is the spirit of the water fast, generally, though naturally one might interpret this to include cool enemas. never done one myself.
