Updo For Military Balls
phrases Giuseppe Tucci
Among the concrete and the abstract -In oriente si fa tutto con calma, con quell'equilibrio di cui si è perduto in occidente persino il ricordo; noi corriamo e ci manca il fiato, essi hanno il tempo per dimenticare il tempo, è il segreto per vivere ancora con se stessi, la meravigliosa facoltà che permette di restare in bilico tra noi e gli altri, tra il concreto e l'astratto.
-il Tibet è stato per molti anni il più grande amore della mia vita e lo è tutt'ora, tanto più caldo quanto più sembra difficile soddisfarlo con un nuovo incontro.
- in otto anni ne ho percorso gran parte in lungo e in largo: ho vissuto nei villaggi e nei monasteri, mi sono genuflesso dinanzi a maestri e immagini sacre, ho valicato insieme a carovanieri crossed mountains and deserts as vast as the sea. I have discussed religion and philosophy with monks learned.

- we move to a winding trail that climbs up a precipitous cliff, which leads into a small plain cut by a ravine 150 meters wide and 200m deep at least, I have the impression that the whole caravan has to plunge from one moment to ' more.
- Tibetan is a 'bit like the Indian travel a lot, you want to walk, now hosted with quell'affabilità friendly which is proper to the east, now sleeping in the immense loneliness that are almost scary. The reason for this wandering is not the desire for new experiences, perhaps many of the places that pilgrims crossing, not known and does not see; in his weariness, in his hunger, he travels in his prayers to gain religious merit, to visit the sacred places of worship, pilgrimage to get closer to God is already a detachment from life, the detachment that almost all the Eastern religions postulate , as a prerequisite for the possession of God
- I envy the long rest of the merchants, who smoked his pipe cuddled on the edge of your shop and impenetrable of life that flows in front of them, as if suspended in un'impassibilità, not know if you thought or empty, but in any case escape.
- Thesis to watch out now we have no news of what happens inside us, that world that connects us in un'inconsapevole presente, con l'esperienze più remote dell'uomo, un'ondosa agitazione di paure e speranze, di aspettazioni e di ammonimenti.
- Io per natura ho sempre più creduto alle cose che non vedo, che a quelle di cui la scienza mi vuole far certo. Togli all'uomo l'imprevisto e il mistero, e il vivere si riduce ad un noioso transito di cibo.
-Più ancora che in altri paesi dell'oriente, nel Tibet, non si pensa a correggere, a modificare la natura, piuttosto ad essa ci si adotta e la si subisce, l'ostacolo non è mai avvertito nel mondo esterno, ma in quello interiore, quella titanica lotta contro natura e le sue leggi in cui noi occidentali siamo ingaggiati, è ignota Tibetans.
- not enough knowledge of the language and dialects, we must be able to gain the trust in these people, give her the impression that there is spiritual affinity between you and them, to leave the borders of their land ( glory or arrogance) of the European Union which is so difficult to undress.
