THE FUTURE OF HUMANITY: WALKING

With this writing number 52 a year is fulfilled trying to convey how important it has been for me to perform these activities of reading, writing and drawing, while we walk. It has been truly amazing what I kept discovering about this practice, as I published my experiences, throughout this first year.

I felt the need to underline the importance of this system that encompasses health, knowledge, creativity and many other improvements that its practice brings in parallel, and I looked for a word or concept that conveyed that importance but at the same time also communicated that It should be considered as something that can help us to improve the perspective of humanity as a whole that looks towards the future and should be accompanied by an encouraging and effective mechanism that, even with the normal problems and setbacks, would stimulate us to continue feeling and thinking optimistically There were several: paradigm, culture, counterculture, canon, formula, and 2 or 3 more. Some of them that would tell us how to continue our existence and have certainty that if we carry it out, we practice it recurrently, reaching our own future would be less cumbersome, less annoying and less harmful, lighter, more attractive and more pleasant . Each of these words communicate to us (transmit) a part of the benefits and the spirit that generates us the system that I have practiced during 3 decades in a systematic and integral way.

It would be repetitive to point out again what I have written in 51 writings, one every week of this last year. The healing power of walking is extraordinary. Not only does it cure us of some of the sufferings that make us suffer in everyday life, but the greatest thing, in addition, is that it is preventive, prevents many of the recurrent diseases from attacking us.

I am convinced that some of our anxieties and worries, including some physical ailments and disorders, would be solved just by walking, and it would be better to combine it with reading, writing and drawing.

In its labor impact I have also indicated that it has an extraordinary potential, no longer said in the creative field, of drawing, painting, literary, etc.

With accuracy I feel and think that the past and present of our civilization was based on walking, and the future must continue to be built on this organic-functional pillar.

We have already commented that the human body produces some substances when it walks; certain organs and glands of the body begin to work sending signals to generate those substances that are hardly produced in an immobile (sedentary) state. We also know that cerebral waves of different types are generated in each walk, among them alpha and theta (See post WALKING, MEDITATION AND CEREBRAL WAVES), and as we have already mentioned, alpha waves are associated with relaxation and other states more of attenuation of consciousness, while theta are those that are generated in our brain when we are able to place ourselves in a deep calm and the consciousness of time and space are lost, they are the waves that are established and implanted in the mind when we make contact with our unconscious, but we continue with a diminished, evident conscience.

I would like to differentiate the effects of walking by commenting that a part of our organism is stimulated, when we read, write and/or draw while we walk; this, allows us to abstract ourselves because a part of our attention is relaxed and our physical and mental actions are not governed by the conscience-rationalist function, in such a way that it puts us in a hypnagogic state, which does not allow us to realize the elapsed time, Sometimes we do not realize we are reading or writing, and when we “wake up” from that state, we realize that we have walked several miles and read some pages of a certain book; clearly this is generated by walking associated with reading, or writing, or drawing, producing alpha waves but especially theta. However, also this system, on the other hand, causes in our organism a process of production of substances that allows us to improve our functioning in all orders

Likewise, we know that the brain is oxygenated (this is how it is qualified) when we perform exercises, it is true, but certain types of substances that fully favor the functioning of some of the physical-organic systems of the body, as well as fundamental parts of the brain, which have remained asleep, favoring and stimulating their functions (physiological-mental).

How much has been lost with the use of animals, as a means of transport and cargo, as well as the use of carts pulled by animals, and with personal automobiles, which have prevented humans from walking, as they did in times past. If we quantify these two periods, we will see that the latter, where man has decreased his activity of walking, is very small compared to the first.

Several studies show that humans have traveled alone on their 2 feet since 2-3 million years ago, until an era where they began to use various means of loading and transport that represent only 10,000 years; graphically we can represent these 2 periods with a pencil, in which the second period would be the tip of it:

According to our thesis, the human being, when becoming sedentary, has fortunately only lost at least some important components in his physiological constitution, in addition to not being able to counteract some affections for the same, both physical and mental; that will surely be better understood in the future.

There were wise people like the Maya (Post THE ANCIENT MAYAS AND THEIR WHITE ROADS. PART I; Future Post THE ANCIENT MAYAS AND THEIR WHITE ROADS. PART II) who did not use the strength of any animal for personal transport or cargo, direct or pulling wagons, for the same reason that they did not use the wheel either in the construction of transport vehicles. Experts have mentioned: “It is inexplicable that the Mayan people have not been able to create the wheel” as a fundamental piece in the construction of vehicles for transport. I am certain that the inhabitants of this cultured town, who knew and used the zero much earlier than the peoples who came from the conquerors of the Old Continent, knew that they had to walk to move themselves without using the different animal means or the vehicles supported on wheels, because they had full knowledge of what it meant to do so, for their physical health and mental fullness.

The peoples who have walked the most have surely strengthened their physical and mental systems, better, favoring mental functions and have also been able to better counteract some ailments and sufferings than those people who have been more sedentary.

Walking will become the main activity to keep us healthy, physically and mentally.

Let’s recover the lost time, let’s go for a walk and take a book and a notebook.
