Very
complex sensations those you get from a trip to
Mali .
Difficult to understand and to explain.
Liked the Mali ?
How can you answer a question like that ? There
is no answer...
Liked ? Sure. But that's not the main point.
Sensations starts weeks later, with the assimilation of
what you saw.
The rejoice of what you felt in those days.
A trip to Mali is "heavy" from a physical point
of view and "heavy" from a mental point of view.
Superb but heavy. Challenging.
Mindfulness there.
Acquire and try to
record everything is difficult for our mind
that is not used to elaborate so many new things
that pass through the eyes and all the other
senses.
I think traveling is a method of meditation
pretty intense .
What the Buddhists call the "presence". The
awareness of the moment.
You do not have time to think much during such a
trip in a place so different from those you are
used to.
The whole mind is given to awareness: trying to
see and assimilate.
Trying to not miss anything .
There will be time, later on, to make all the
connections, to link images to thoughts,
concepts to emotions.
Everything will happen
automatically, without conscious effort.
The journey, the experience, the growth. All will
take shape spontaneously.
It is an amazing process. Fascinating. |
