Why do people know the world through travel?

qimei remembers that when I was in college, my sociology teacher said to me:

where the body can't reach, the eyes can reach.

the original intention of his saying this sentence is to make us read more books.

when you are young, if you can't travel because of material or other reasons, then try to read more books and get to know the world through books.

I think what he said about understanding the world includes two levels.

one is realistic.

that is, all kinds of scenery, different races and skin colors, different living habits, customs, food and so on in the world are visible to the naked eye and can be felt by the body.

one is spiritual.

namely: various cultures, literature, music, art, beliefs, etc. in the world, as well as their causes and connections, etc.

everything that needs to be thought about and studied deeply belongs to the spiritual level.

nowadays, through books, we can really realize both of them, especially today when internet technology is so developed.

We can browse all kinds of information about the world on the Internet, whether it's scenery or literature, or we can get to know the world more intuitively through videos.

So what's the significance of traveling for us to know the world?

There's a saying on the Internet. Let me borrow it.

What it means here is that although we know more about the world from books, have seen more scenery and read more literary works, we are far from going to that place personally, which is impressive.

If books learn knowledge about the world, then travel focuses on a personal experience.

satisfy the five senses and satisfy the brain.

No matter how much knowledge and essence you learn from books, it can never replace the feeling of vision and touch, let alone the touch and shock of your heart.

A landscape, a landform, a species, a plant cover and a climate are all closely related to the local geographical environment and water and soil.

A delicacy, a culture, a custom, an art, and a language will not be born without the local people and life.

Only when you go to that place in person will you understand that seeing the scenery with your own eyes is so shocking, this ceremony is so touching, and this kind of food has such a history.

It turns out that the Maldivian sea breeze blows on your face. Huashan Mountain is so towering, and English in Britain is really good.

The feeling of touch, the impact of vision and the stimulation of hearing are all more direct and real than the original book.

What are the Indian sacrificial ceremonies like, and what are the European church prayers like? Are the Buddhist beliefs in India the same as those in China? What do you feel when you are in these scenes?

These are things that books can't teach us, and they are the touch of the soul.

I've learned too little from the paper, and I never know that this matter needs to be done.

I learned about the world in person.

The experiences I saw along the trip not only increased my horizons, but also increased my life experience.

you may encounter hardships and frustrations along the way, and you may also encounter unexpected situations that affect your mood.

In the process of seeing the world all the way, I have gradually learned various methods to solve problems and have the ability to think independently.

I like a travel blogger-—itsRea.

She is a person who knows the world while traveling.

During the trip, she met many new things, interesting people, different landscapes and cultures. She also learned to change the tires of the car and have a friendly conversation with the tattooed grandmother.

Travel may not broaden the length of life, but it can lengthen the width of life.

enrich your experience and enrich your life.

experience the world a little more, a little more.

It is not so much that traveling enriches our life as that we become more empathetic and tolerant of everything after seeing everything in the world.

Travel changes our attitude towards the world.

Children in the Middle East live a harder life than I expected. It turns out that the status of women here is so low, and the LGBT community is actually understandable and should be given a respect.

At the same time, it also urges us to think dialectically about what we have learned in books.

It seems that this place is not as shabby as the author said, and it has developed slowly in recent years.

It turns out that this kind of flower can survive in this climate. As long as the water is sufficient, it is not that the author said that it can't survive at all.

in this way, everything is not just books, but reality.

There are three levels of martial arts in the movie The Master: seeing yourself, seeing the world and seeing all beings.

I want to change them in order to answer the meaning of travel to know the world.

see the world, all beings and yourself.

seeing the heavens and the earth is roughly understood as seeing everything in the world that can be seen by the naked eye, that is, the world of representation;

To meet all beings is to know all kinds of people in the world, to deal with different people, and to communicate with them with your heart.

At the same time, experience all the material and spiritual things created by all beings, and tolerate and understand all beings.

seeing yourself is the ultimate meaning of travel.

tolerance, empathy, independent thinking and problem solving, positive attitude, dialectical thinking, practical ability, increased horizons and knowledge, interesting people to know ...

and the realization of the most authentic self.

I have read such a passage.

this is the best answer.

When a writer is writing, cultural and artistic workers want to create excellent works, they will let themselves go to a place to experience, eat and live with the locals, and integrate themselves into the local environment.

art comes from life.

a lot of things, not what you have read in books, will be better understood only after you have seen them yourself.

after all, practice makes true knowledge.

The ancients said, "Read thousands of books and take Wan Li Road."

both of them are ways to know the world and complement each other.

Books can acquire knowledge, but traveling will enlarge your eyes.

people who choose to know the world by traveling must also be inseparable from books, and they must also think and feel with heart during their travels.

and if you just want to relax and let your head "go into battle lightly", then empty yourself and don't think about increasing your knowledge and thinking.

Although traveling can make you know the world, you must not make traveling a burden. You must learn something.

comfort is the most important thing.

It is true that we live in an era of "watching the world from the shoulders of giants", but it is not enough.

if you can, please start at once.
