I can’t provide a generic answer, but will be happy to share my experience. I used to do three-day fasts, water only, where I would refrain from sexual activity or any negative thoughts – I would really make a concerted effort to keep my mind pure and focused on spiritual, holy things. I would do yoga and meditate, take contemplative walks in nature, etc. on those days.
On one such day I was sitting in meditation, possibly focusing on God, and suddenly this unspeakably disgusting, nauseating gray slimy blob thing exited my being and remained hovering about 2 feet in front of me. I could not see it clearly, and at the time my spiritual powers of perception were quite weak, yet its impact on me was very clear and vivid, and my entire being revolted at the nauseating experience of having it there in front of me. I actually got up and got the hell out of my apartment. Thankfully, when I got back a few hours later it was gone, as my guides said it would be.
I would say that fasting is a spiritual activity much more than it is a function of simply abstaining from food. So I would say the duration matters less than the purity of one’s focus on the Highest. Based on my extensive fasting experience, I would say a duration of twenty-four hours is minimal – it is on the second day that you will actually be able to make any significant spiritual progress, as long as you’re able to continue keeping your mind and soul focused on the right things.
Fasting is a way of saying to the universe: "the Spiritual is what's important to me, and I am willing to sacrifice the material for it." When you do so, you raise your vibration, and if the attached entity is unable to match it, it appears that it becomes forcibly ejected due to its inability to continue vibrating in harmony with the rest of you.
I would also throw this in: the vast majority of the mental and emotional stuff that gets in our way and produces suffering in our lives does not come from external attached entities, but from crystallized (in an unhelpful way) portions of our astral and mental bodies, which continue to produce unhelpful emotion and thought patterns when triggered. The mechanisms for dealing with these are different, and I have posted about healing emotional blocks in the astral not long ago.
Good luck and all the best!
