travelogue of India\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “There was no need to take a separate book with me when I went on a trip.\u003cbr\u003e The world was a book.\u003cbr\u003e The train was a novel, and the bus roof, the fields, and the remote village were poetry books.\u003cbr\u003e I read that book.\u003cbr\u003e “Whenever I turn the page, a new path appears.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Ryu Si-hwa, who writes poetry, translates books on meditation, and travels to India and Nepal every year, is a poet on the road. \u003cbr\u003e\"Traveler of the Earth\" is a record of the life lessons and realizations he gained while traveling to India every year for 15 years and staying in one place for a long time.\u003cbr\u003e Encounters with saints, beggars, desert nomads, innkeepers, shoe thieves, and fortune tellers clearly reveal the poet's perspective that we are all travelers on this world and students learning life's lessons.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Just like 『A Journey to the Sky Lake』, which was loved by 800,000 readers, 『Traveler of the Earth』 is a book that you can read lightly but gain great insight from.\u003cbr\u003e The virtue of this book is that it conveys the most profound stories in the easiest way possible, with a philosophy full of humor.\u003cbr\u003e Travel essays without a single portrait or landscape photo are more vivid than documentaries.\u003cbr\u003e Each and every phrase is filled with reflections and meditations on the essence of freedom and enlightenment he had dreamed of. \u003cbr\u003eHowever, this does not mean that he traveled to places with great people and historical sites that ordinary people would rarely meet in their lifetime.\u003cbr\u003e There are the fortune tellers who wait for the escaped bird, the restaurant owner who likes to say a famous saying at the end of every sentence, the man who sneaks up and cracks peanuts while trying his best to monopolize travelers from other people, and the robber boss who likes poetry.\u003cbr\u003e To the author, they are the 'archetypal models' of all people in this world.\u003cbr\u003e So, it's a story about Indians, but it's not just their story, it's all of our story.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The book begins with the question, “Where is God?” and ends with “Are you happy?”\u003cbr\u003e 'Shin' means a utopian world, but people always create their utopia by shouting 'No problem' as if it were a spell.\u003cbr\u003e There are many anecdotes that are so absurd that they make you laugh, but this book is so full of truth that it's hard to just pass it by. \u003cbr\u003eIt's a series of captivating stories that anyone who picks up once will be compelled to read to the end.\u003cbr\u003e I can recommend this book even to people who don't like books or travel, and the moment you close the book, it makes you want to say \"Namaste\" and go to India.\u003cbr\u003e The author calls freedom the discovery of one's own order, rather than conforming to the order established by others.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e You can preview some of the book's contents.\u003cbr\u003e

accommodation and had to sleep in a quiet train station.\u003cbr\u003e It was like fate for a traveler like me.\u003cbr\u003e Accepting and celebrating who I am and wherever I stand has been the most

it were their own story, but it really isn't. \u003cbr\u003eAll the stories are about the locals he met, the rickshaw drivers, the street children, the tricksters, the postmaster who invited him to his home for the first time.\u003cbr\u003e Even though it is only a story of an old begging monk who waved goodbye and left, it is not his own.\u003cbr\u003e --- p.248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “You

most essential happiness that most of us forget.\u003cbr\u003e Sharp proverbs that are sometimes absurd but sometimes pierce the heart appear here and there.\u003cbr\u003e It is not just a travel book, but is read as a kind of mental therapy.\u003cbr\u003e As one reader wrote in a review, the author's attitude of being neither overly humble nor overly arrogant about his status as a poet adds to the sincerity.\u003cbr\u003e Additionally, the author's writing skills stand out without losing his dignity.\u003cbr\u003e As befitting a writer who answers \"traveler\" when asked what his identity is, this book reminds us of the true spirit realized on the road to travel and what we have forgotten.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eTraveling is a way to embrace new things, but it is also a journey to find myself.\u003cbr\u003e 『Traveler of the Earth』 is fundamentally different from other travel stories.\u003cbr\u003e It is not simply a record of everyday life: where you went, what you saw, what you ate, and what you did.\u003cbr\u003e Rather than providing guidance on where to go to see great things, the author talks about how to travel and what mindset to have in life.\u003cbr\u003e It is a travelogue of India, but it is also a travelogue of life and a pilgrimage to life.\u003cbr\u003e The theme is a looseness that lowers the guard against the world and others, self-reflection, and what should be the most important thing for people.\u003cbr\u003e It makes me imagine myself standing in India someday, even if not right now.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eStart over where the monkey dropped the ball. - p.\u003cbr\u003e 36\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe author, whose entire travel itinerary was thrown into disarray due to a major festival that made it impossible to get train tickets, was told a story by a travel agent in Mumbai.\u003cbr\u003e When India was a British colony, the British built a golf course in Kolkata to enjoy their leisure time.\u003cbr\u003e But every time I played golf, monkeys would show up, pick up my golf balls, and drop them in the wrong places.\u003cbr\u003e Tired of being harassed by mischievous monkeys, the British eventually created new golf rules.\u003cbr\u003e 'The game is played at the exact spot where the monkey dropped the golf ball.'\u003cbr\u003e Of course, this new rule had unexpected consequences.\u003cbr\u003e Some people were lucky enough to have their golf ball fly to the wrong place and have the monkeys pick it up and drop it into the hole, while others were unlucky enough to have their ball fly close to the hole and have the monkeys quickly pick it up and drop it into the water.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe author learns that this is true not only in golf, but also in life.\u003cbr\u003e You can't control everything that happens in life according to your plans.\u003cbr\u003e Life is like a long-tailed monkey popping out of every course and knocking your golf ball into the wrong place.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The travel agency representative says.\u003cbr\u003e “The advice I can give you is this:\u003cbr\u003e “Don’t be discouraged, but continue your journey with joy, right from the spot where the monkey dropped the golf

started complaining.\u003cbr\u003e Then the witty guesthouse owner gives some advice. \u003cbr\u003e“Don’t start this sacred morning given by God with complaints.\u003cbr\u003e Instead, start your day with prayer and meditation.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Another day, when I complained about the sanitary conditions in the guesthouse kitchen, he said:\u003cbr\u003e “I’ve been running this inn for over 20 years now, and there have always been two types of people.\u003cbr\u003e One side is people who always complain, and the other side is people who always have fun in the same situation.\u003cbr\u003e “It is up to you to decide which category you want to belong to.”\u003cbr\u003e Then he adds:\u003cbr\u003e “You came to India to travel, not to complain.”\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd
