The Great Lent always places in Spring when the earthly lives are renewed; the morning starts to be longer, roses start to be opened, trees start to be fresh, and the earth' fruits start to be flowered.During fasting, the man doesn't get occupied with the types and the forms of food, so he gets enlightenment.I don't mean bodily but spiritually.When he reads the Bible, he understands it more; when he attends the praising, he lives it; when he makes prostration in the late liturgies, he enjoys more. This is a kind of enlightenment.Another blessing is that the man feels that God's spirit is leading him, not food or drink.He doesn't care for food or drink; all are the same, and he is just eating anything to feed his body.
