melon race



Last Saturday We run a popular race called “La melonera” at the south of Madrid. Thousands of runners in a very exciting atmosphere, all was good feelings, jokes, fun … Many years ago since I run my last race! We enjoyed a lot even that my fitness is not as good as it was, I spent 52 minutes for the 8.6 Kms race distance. Three years ago in training sessions I used to run 10 kms in only 48 minutes! Never mind… Important thing is that I finished it in one piece and got my melon and the T-Shirt… :-)
I’ve run since I can remember and have the feeling I will go on doing it in future… You know “mens sana in corpore sano”…
Thanks and smile,

CHAMBAO


Probably CHAMBAO and CAMARON are the artists and musicians I’ve listen the most recent years. I don’t need to tell you the genius and figure of “Camarón de la Isla” and the extraordinary flamenco songs he gave us as a gift. Chambao is quite a modern southern of Spain group of musicians (band founded 5 years ago). Since then, they are reinventing, innovating and adding value to music. They merge flamenco and chill out music with wonderful lyrics too.

“The sound of waves, smooth sand, friends and music, a “chambao” is not just a fleeting space set up on the seashore with rugs and cushions, lit up by a bonfire; it is more a place where the simple joy of being alive is the important matter”

BUDA

Last Sunday in my travel back to Madrid by train I read an OSHO book called “AWARENESS”. He made me think and I’ve done some research. Osho is a modern prophet than considered himself a Budha, someone who was illuminated, someone who reached NIRVANA. Osho tried to teach our modern world how to do it . He has many followers but many detractors too. Quite interesting character…
What he teachs through his books about spiriatuality is not something original, it’s just old theories adapted to our times. That was told many years ago (2.500 Before JC) by BUDA. Buda was an Indian prince who abandoned everything (power, the luxury of a palace, even his own wife and son) for a meditation live at the early age of 29. After many years in an awareness state, thinking, observing live, meditating and knowing himself, he is considered to be the first one to reach Nirvana or be “illuminated”. He explained that only through mediation you get to know your truly you and the meaning of live. Through meditation you are able to be in a no-mind state (no thoughts on your mind only awareness of the present moment) so you get to nirvana, awareness, reality, truth, calm, answers, happiness…
Avoid be thinking all the time: your memories, the past, what the future should bring… Just enjoy your present time. Put all your senses and energy in it!
Thanks and smile… or should I say "Thanks and meditate" my friend… :-)
