Some experiences at the Grand Canyon

The canyon is so overwhelming to the senses and the psyche as a whole. I think, the fact that this feature was slowly created over millions of years has ingrained some psychic quality to it. And when you experience it, that thing reflects in the timeless part of you at some deeper level. It feels as if, you and what you are experiencing are the same phenomenon.

When you first see the canyon, there is a feeling of being in front of a giant picture. You almost become part of that picture. The scene has somewhat timeless and transcendental quality to it.

When you stand at the edge and look down in the mile deep abyss, you are left speechless by these giant naturally carved out platforms, mansions and layers of rock...piled one upon another in step-like fashion descending deep into the canyon. It evokes stillness and thoughtlessness in you, for a moment.
