It must be definitely and positively stated that fasting is not a cure for any disease or ailment.
Но надо ясно и определенно сознавать, что голодание не является способом лечения какой-либо болезни или недуга.

This Father Ferapont was that aged monk so devout in fasting and observing silence who has been mentioned already, as antagonistic to Father Zossima and the whole institution of "elders," which he regarded as a pernicious and frivolous innovation.
Старец этот, отец Ферапонт, был тот самый престарелый монах, великий постник и молчальник, о котором мы уже и упоминали как о противнике старца Зосимы, и главное -- старчества, которое и считал он вредным и легкомысленным новшеством.

"I admire your fasting and severities, but you speak lightly like some frivolous youth, fickle and childish.
— посту и подвижничеству твоему удивляюсь, но легкомысленны словеса твои, якобы изрек юноша в миру, непостоянный и младоумный.

And it is also possible that a man may not really be fasting even though he may have denied himself food; for he may be too conscious of being hungry, that he is dying of hunger.
Точно так же возможно и то, что человек на самом деле не постится, хотя и отказывает себе в пище; он может слишком осознавать свой голод, чувствовать, что он умирает от голода.

During fasting you should not even think of the various articles of food.
Во время поста вы не должны думать о пище.

"He was not strict in fasting, allowed himself sweet things, ate cherry jam with his tea, ladies used to send it to him.
"К посту был не строг, сладости себе разрешал, варение вишневое ел с чаем, очень любил, барыни ему присылали.

Obedience, fasting, and prayer are laughed at, yet only through them lies the way to real, true freedom.
Над послушанием, постом и молитвой даже смеются, а между тем лишь в них заключается путь к настоящей, истинной уже свободе:

The Miracle Of Fasting
Bragg, Paul C.,Bragg, Patricia

I was beginning to feel a little lightheaded; my sleepless nights, the noon heat, the stench, the sudden cold of the crypt, all combined with the day’s fasting to create a kind of dark stupor.
Перед глазами у меня слегка плыло; бессонные ночи, полуденный зной, зловоние, внезапный холод склепа — все это, вкупе с вынужденным голоданием, вызвало во мне тупое оцепенение.

Your chains,' he said, 'are of the devil; your fasting is of the devil; your prayer-room is of the devil. It is all pride,' he said.
Вериги, говорит, твои от беса, посты твои от беса, молельная твоя от беса; всё, говорит, это гордость".

Believe not that any evil can come to him, he having read this morning, fasting, a chapter of the Septuagint, and, moreover, having had his lesson in the Greek Testament."
Не тревожьтесь, ничего худого с ним не случится. Утром он постился, прочел главу из семидесяти толковников, и, кроме того, у нас был урок по греческому Новому завету.
