ABOUT ME
A little more.... sophisticated now than 11 years ago living in wilderness of Hindukush mountains in Kalasha Valleys.Those were the times there when in our area there were no hotels and hordes of travellers were being hosted at my home in the valleys. I remember thier dirty used trousers, broken sunglasses, boats and cameras.They left behing their worn out books and travel maps.My grandma use to pile all the junk and papers in the backyard and in the winters we used them as fire starters around the fire side.
Some transforming process starts in strange way, while i was burning pages from travel books i started to gaze into the shapes of tiny printed letters,pictures and imagined the places and meanings behind those letters-there were the vibrant moments and i felt it was some secret messages for travelling people to follow their destinies across the earth.I stopped burning the travelogues,novels,lonely planets,magazines and instead treasured them and tried to dechipher them ..with time reading improved so did a comphrension in communication- english.
The close curios observations ,the staring and smiling at foreign faces of the travelers converted into lively conversations with no ends with endless cups of tea and wine...i had learnt a language for communication.
Then it didn't stop there,every time a traveller from my place left i was left with curios feeling of what lies behind the mighty mountains!
to Live more...Seek more... grew inside me like a lava in the heart of himalaya-hindukush mountains,one day it erupt and I hit the road for the thrill of adventure...to follow my destiny to free my soul to find my self on the beaten tracks and off the beaten trails..
smelling the sea for the first time, tasting new frutis ,foods, cultures,smells and sounds i sunddely found a piece of myself every where in the world that could have been so alien to me but now it involves,revolves and interests and intriques me in unseen dimensions.
I think i am little awake , a little inspired on the same planet with incredible people who believe in the mystic ways of existence and exploration into the unknown.
PHILOSOPHY
As a warrior,just like any other animal,you have to be able to runaway from the danger of your own madness...or some times from the danger of others madness.... :)
The corporate revolution will collapse if we refuse to buy what they are selling - their ideas, their version of history, their wars, their weapons, their notion of inevitability. Remember this - we be many and they be few. They need us more than we need them. Another world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing.
A journey of thousand miles starts with finding your shoes....
