Lessons from Greece – 2
Girish Kuber
Greek love of bodybuilding was not limited to idols. It is still visible today and it is beyond history .. It is impossible to gain a body without exercise; But this is the history of mindfulness exercise along with the body.
A visit to the Louvre in Paris or the Museum of Art History in Vienna or the Acropolis Museum in Athens will remind you of two things. The beauty of the male body and the roundness of the female body. Not only David, Apollo, Hakrillis, Spartacus, Mercury, etc., but also the bodies of their slaves were crooked. Among them is the Greek man Madanabhan in history. Gained a body with a nice workout. Island on penalty. The thigh muscles are well up and the veins are tight. As well as pots. Ghotiev. Appropriate hairstyle for such attire. Long and curly. Greek men and women in the Mediterranean are still considered the epitome of healthy, wholesome beauty. However, since it is a Greek subject, it is only for men.
To this day, Greek men are taller. Broad shoulders. Nose straight. Sharp enough to cut paper. A man with thick eyebrows and a beard on his face. If you do not know how, remember Hugh Jackman who played Wolverine. He is Greek. Many international male models are given by such Greek faces. Strong masculinity is the hallmark of all this. Billy Jen, husband of Kate Winslet on the Titanic, is also Greek. These men grew old and began shaving every day to look like Prince Philip, the husband of the current Queen of England Elizabeth. Beautiful Greek. Betty Davis or Jennifer Aniston were not tempted with ‘Friends’, ‘Marley and Me’, despite deciding not to go into details about women. Or Greek. Anyway.
The question of what was the health of Greek men has since settled in Athens. Compromise does not mean that the men of a family are gone. But the real question is how it will be in the country. In it the ancient male and female images appear directly nude. Rag on the female body. That too cannot be said for shame. Because if shame is the subject, why is it so exposed? But not so in the case of men. Everything is ‘so’. God bless you too. This is not true right now, it is true (and good). But the appearance of Greek men is not without question.
During this wandering he found the answer.
Throughout the afternoon in Athens, we searched our mobile phones for an address based on Google Maps, with a cool breeze in the sun and a clumsy body. If you find yourself in such an awkward place, do not ask the local ‘travel agent type’ at all. This is a self-imposed rule. Because what they want to sell is more important than what they want. So it’s good to find out for yourself. (And as Pulan puts it, “I’m not ashamed to search for an address, because it’s not the time to find an address that bothers me.”) Shortly after, Google began to say that your destination had been reached. But nothing was found there. Opposite is a small church. Went there. All the best inside. Preparing for the feast. We are different to that look in that group. One of them noticed that we had made a mistake. Came to talk. But it is the same bomb in English and our Greek. Finally he showed what he was looking for in Google. He shouted “Arechcha” and “Mari” in Greek. I mean, Google is right. Only the direction of the entrance is incorrect. The entrance is on the other side. Take another turn.
Put it on and went inside, a farm across the street. As the PWD dug. Brick heights in the middle. It also dropped by half. Two to four Akhiv pits. A few feet along it. Fence around it. Security without anyone crossing. Apparently the general reaction is the same: what is so important about it? It is carved in two corners with steel sculptures and notice boards.
This is the ruins of the first gym in Greece. When was it built? In the sixth century BC. A suburb outside the city center of Athens. The gymnasium was then set up in an environment like river, temperate forest. Her cost is city management. I.e. municipality etc. There are specialized rooms for training in hot water system, wrestling, boxing, weightlifting, etc. The cost of teachers is also an administrative responsibility. The student meal arrangements there are also close to the city. Well the time is right. He got the thorn by reading the next rule.
The gym is dedicated to the city’s scholars, writers, poets and philosophers. The idea is to raise their mind in such a place when children’s bodies are collapsing. Therefore, every effort has been made to ensure that these gyms are filled with poetic humor when children are not exercising. None of this. The thorn in the flesh turned into thunder .. When I read the next details ..
Aristotle led the gym where we were standing. Aristotle’s father was a physician at the time. But he was interested in poetry. He taught Pora three things. Exercising, listening to music and Homer’s epic Iliad. Then, at the age of 17, Aristotle entered a school in Athens. That’s where we stand. Who was the founder of this gymnasium in the 4th century BC? So is Plato. School Name: Academia. Later, in 343-342 BC, Aristotle was summoned by King Philip of Macedonia. To teach your child. This Philip was the son of Alexander the Great. The body and mind of this little Alexander were shaped by Aristotle. Later this king grew up. Started going on missions.
Aristotle returned to Athens and established his own school. This is the gym. There, early in the morning, Aristotle takes some of them for a walk around the gym. Its purpose is to get people to discuss various issues with you! That’s it for the evening. The only difference is that the morning is allotted to the masses and the evening to the scholars and practitioners. Aristotle Librarian. It was there that he started his book library. This is the first library of its kind in the ancient world. It was very beautiful, and later Alexander built a magnificent library in Alexandria, Egypt. So where we stand, Aristotle studied something and wrote / edited books on various subjects that are still used as references today. Cosmology, Logic, Morality, Physics, Metaphysics. And poetry.
This physical philosophy of intellectual history is absolute. No words come out of the mouth under such a burden. It’s five o’clock in the evening when I get there. The time here is in India. At the newspaper office, Ain sighed! I got a call from a colleague in the office .. that something went wrong here from Hanuman Chalisa! Need to exercise a bit .. This is just a question.
