How do you convey to someone, what is this "Paragliding Life"? This book will take you on a paragliding flight. It will give you a glimpse into what makes paragliding pilots want to go to the mountains any time they are allowed to. Sometimes risking their family's displeasure, limbs and at times life. How does one's perceptions and priorities change after taking up this sport? This book will go about whetting your interest and curiosity in a roundabout, often confusing, and subtle way. Some of it may also be applicable to any pursuit that is passionately indulged in.
There is a beautiful word "flow" which is used to describe a state of mind when you are completely absorbed in any activity. The actual act of flying can be described as "flow". But flying, although major, is just one part of "Paragliding Life" - people, places, and the different experiences we are exposed to, add essential flavour to the whole package. In this book that is what is talked about; in a bunch of short essays.
This book holds undeniable appeal for paragliding pilots, their friends, and family. However, it goes beyond that-it is also a source of inspiration and wisdom for anyone on a genuine quest to learn from the virtues of journeying, valuing the process rather than being solely focused on the destination. For those who prefer visual storytelling, this book is embellished with a wealth of pictures and drawings that will not only occupy your time but also stir your imagination.
