July 17: Stay in Good Consciouness (Utpal’s blog)

July 17, 2016

“If the 3100 mile race is at one end of the race spectrum the 2 mile race is at the other end. At the beginning.”

I spoke with Nirbhasa just after he finished running in the Self Transcendence 2 mile race on Saturday. He was in the top 3 and so for his achievement he was presented a banana. And as he said, the 2 mile race, which may take up to 18 minutes, can in any way compare to the 3100. A race that as of today has just completed 28 days. The total distance covered by all the runners in that time is 19,427 miles.

Atmavir is running the 3100 mile race for the 9th time. At the start of day 25 he has now completed 1659 miles and is now officially the race leader. Which is not something he is all that much interested in.

What we observers should appreciate however is that the circumference of the earth is 24,900 miles. A distance that Atmavir passed many days and miles ago. He continues to move forward with a kind of grace, determination, and poise that is exceptional. Particularly when you factor in that his reward for completing the race, if not in fact winning this year, will be something as intangible and yet still personally all consuming as inner satisfaction.
