The Meaning of Fasting

The concept of purity, just like the concept of fasting, should not be impoverished. The word “catharsis” originates from “kat-arios,” which signifies a process towards integrity, towards perfection. Therefore, catharsis implies an inner stability, a moral integrity that remains completely devoted to God in the face of any temptation. It requires a gradual spiritual transformation from fragmentation to wholeness. Thus, according to the hymn, true fasting is a “means” toward “wholeness.”

Along with the struggle to eliminate passions, the purpose of fasting is to introduce believers to the greatness of the new life in the Lord through the Cross. Therefore, when we feel even the slightest physical hunger that fasting brings, we try to transform it and reshape it into a “hunger and thirst” for Christ.
