40 Days of Fasting

40 Inspired Recitations

De: Dr. Glenville Ashby

Narrado por: Larry Rodgers

40 Days of Fasting is a profound collection of spiritually inspired poems born out of a sacred personal practice of fasting. Written during a rare convergence of Ramadan and Lent in April 2025, these forty days became a crucible for inner transformation, stillness, and divine connection. In that silence, a voice spoke-gentle, insistent, and filled with wisdom. This voice, identifying itself as a guide named Carlos, dictated the verses that now comprise this work.

This book is not merely about abstaining from food or water. It is a journey through the soul’s deep yearning to reunite with its Source. Each poem is a meditation-on love, death, healing, divine presence, spiritual purity, and the human struggle for truth. These recitations echo ancient teachings while remaining deeply personal, echoing the author’s own trials, revelations, and reconciliations.

40 Days of Fasting invites readers to slow down and reflect. Drawing on spiritual philosophies from various traditions-Christianity, Islam, Eastern mysticism, and metaphysical teachings-the poems act as spiritual signposts, guiding us back to our essence. Themes of divine mercy, inner light, karmic justice, sacred union, and the soul’s eternal nature are explored with poetic grace.

Whether listened to as a devotional companion, a meditative guide, or a poetic reflection, this book touches something universal. It does not preach. It invites. It does not declare answers. It helps the listener ask the right questions.

Above all, 40 Days of Fasting is a testament to the soul’s quiet knowing and the sacred power of listening during times of intentional silence. It is both a personal diary and a mystical manual-an offering to all those walking the spiritual path with faith, doubt, longing, and hope.
