Traveling: A Mantra to liberate mind, body and soul


THE WORLD IS A BOOK AND THOSE WHO DO NOT TRAVEL READ ONLY A PAGE.”
-SAINT AUGUSTINE
It is rightly believed that there is nothing better than a hobby of traveling. If taken as a passion, travelling can overpower all other ways a man chooses for recreation. It gives a kaleidoscope of experiences to those who enjoy exploration as a way of life. Travel plans can be of different sorts ranging from high end luxury stays in star rated hotels or resorts or can be as simple as staying in home stays, hostels or dorms. Whatever the plans are, traveling to unexplored, virgin and untrodden places surely offers experiences that are cherished and remembered for life.
Historically also traveling has been taken as an important project by adventure seekers, voyagers and travelers. That was one significant means that led to the discovery of several main lands which are popular today as well known countries. It is a way of knowing anything and everything about a land, its people, culture, food, beliefs, languages, religion and even habits and customs followed. With added knowledge, man gets liberation in thoughts and beliefs and becomes capable of getting adjusted to the places he has never visited earlier in life. It transcends all the barriers that hinder the way of universal brotherhood amongst people of different nations across the globe. The more you travel to a variety of places, the better is your ability to accommodate cultural variations and imbibe local etiquette. This further helps in getting accepted by the local people and sometimes may lead to strong interactions between two different cultures. This, therefore, again leads to liberation of thoughts and widening of understanding.
Another way to appreciate the importance of traveling is to feel the results it brings to the one who experiences it. Researches have shown that thereare several psychological and physiological benefits of traveling. Not only it leads to mind rejuvenation, if planned properly, it may lead to bodily renewal. It brings experiences that become good memories for life. Further, a lot of travelers who are on constant move to explore places have admitted that some of their holiday experiences have led to transformation in positive ways in the way they think and react to situations (Times Life, May 2017). Some budget travelers in their travel encountershave confessed that traveling has brought in them compassion, acceptance and a feeling of better understanding of life. There are some travelers who believe in capturing the moments of their travel encounters and experiences through the lens of their camera. This process also gives them a lot of satisfaction through which they attain liberation. Travel bloggers find their rejuvenation by writing about their travel experiences and posting pictures to show to the world. Traveling increases the ability to sustain in different situations and brings us closer to reality of nature. Therefore, we can conclude that traveling is one way of creating connect with oneself, nature and others and can result in utmost satisfaction of different sorts.
