But it’s not basically marijuana, you know. It’s about freedom. It is to get out of your comfort zone. Unexpectedly realized who you are to know who you are going home and look at your rule from distance. Your ethnocentricity is a situation that rinses. It humiles you. You thought you know what music is, but you didn’t know what music is. You thought about what love is. You thought about what pain or joy was. And then you travel to the other side of the world, and you are not realizing anyone in India’s billion people.
What other seeds were planted on this journey, you continued to collect over the years?
I didn’t know what I was learning, I was soaking. I realized that the most dreadful people still have to travel. They have no clue to hippie.
Why do we want to build walls in that country? For me, of course, if you want to be safe, you do not build walls, as it is not security for security, but it is a way to retire in the world. If you have made a philosophical hippie trail, you go to build bridges and get less ways to build walls.
Today people say, Oh, I want the man, I can do the hippie track today. I’m sure I missed it. You were lucky in 1978. No, you can do a hippie track today. You can’t go from the same Istanbul store in Istanbul to this place in Kathmandu Chai, a bunch of hippies on such a bus, but you can experience your hippie trajectory. The trick is moving away from the house and the thought that you lifted the truth is to evaluate many, and they are given by God, they define success when you arrive at home.
In addition to being greater changes in your WorldView, I think the most important moments of the trip are least expected. Was there much memories that have created great long terms?
I met a teacher of Afghanistan, and said, I want to know that the people on the planet eat with a spoon and fork, a third of the fingers, like me, and we are all the same. I thought at first, The boy has the chip on his shoulder. But he was right. I thought it was less because he ate with his fingers, and he knew that, and that he was saddened, and everyone wanted to know that we are the same. And then I realized that there are different rules. Americans are experts think that we are the rule. Americans are experts in the world to think of us pyramid, and everyone else is trying to reach. Americans are experts in thinking that we are extraordinary. The only extra thing about us is that we could actually think.
