Talk the Walk - 1 :: Simulation of AGANDAM

Dear All

As I start this series, I am unsure if I am going to be able to verbalize all the ripples of thoughts which hit me during the one hour of my walking sessions. 

The challenge in expressing them is that most of them are interwoven at different levels and get evolved (some times re-asserted; many times modified & few times negated too.....) with every passing day and with each of the little experience at the park.

Lemme put my best of efforts to make this series sensible to the readers; After all it is just returning back those experiences taken from this vast AGANDAM :-)

That brings my first and foremost observation about the walking @ park - it appears to be a simulated atmosphere which represents the AGANDAM itself ....at least, I mean the human part of it.

People use the park and get involved in various activities in park depending on their preferences (karma ??) and it is a beautiful sight to see the balance existing overall - I mean, there are enough people to laze around in the park to match the number of people who intensely walk sweating all over the body; Similarly there are many loners who sit as if they are brooding on some worries to even out the intimate lovers who are engrossed in their interactions (some times heavy arguments literally oblivious of situation / passers by); Last but not least there are enough oldies to challenge the number of little kids who are enjoying the baby sitter rides - looking with their innocent eyes.

Even among the people (like me) who use the park (only) for our intense walking session, it is quite a scene to see the various speeds, styles, body movements and the duration of the sessions that we have set for ourselves - not leaving out the various shapes , conditions and looks of the beings; Even on the regularity of the visit, time of visit and the time we stay, each one exercises their "free will" and makes choices not just on their consistency but also on their intensity levels......

With opportunities for using the park in various possible ways, it is a beauty to see the options chosen by people based on various factors / logic and preferences.

Another important thing (particularly about walking people) is the realization of the grand truth of mutual inter dependence and the remembrance of the golden truths which are applicable in our normal lives. (Let me touch this part bit later in more detail)

So......in nut shell, since all of us know that this universe is too vast and it is next to impossible to understand 6 billion people, we get a substantial feel about the complexities and behavioral patterns of mankind just by choosing to reach out a park with a bit of observing mood.....

That's enough for today....
