आदिम आर्य घुमक्कड़ ही थे। यहाँ से वहाँ वे घूमते ही रहते थे। घूमते भटकते ही वे भारत पहुँचे थे। यदि घुमक्कड़ी का बाना उन्होंने न धारण किया होता, यदि वे एक स्थान पर ही रहते, तो आज भारत में उनके वंशज न होते। भगवान बुद्ध घुमक्कड़ थे। भगवान महावीर घुमक्कड़ थे। वर्षाऋतु के कुछ महीनों को छोड़कर एक स्थान में रहना बुद्ध के वश का नहीं था। 35 वर्ष की आयु में उन्होंने बुद्धत्व प्राप्त किया। 35 वर्ष से 80 वर्ष की आयु तक जब उनकी मृत्यु हुई, 45 वर्ष तक वे निरन्तर घूमते ही रहे। अपने आप को समाज सेवा और धर्म प्रचार में लगाये रहे। अपने शिष्यों से उन्होंने कहा था ''चरथ भिक्खवे'' चारिक है भिक्षुओं! घुमक्कड़ी करो। यद्यपि बुद्ध कभी भारत के बाहर नहीं गये किन्तु उनके शिष्यों ने उनके वचनों को सिर आँखों पर लिया और पूर्व में जापान, उत्तर में मंगोलिया, पश्चिम में मकदूनिया और दक्षिण में बाली द्वीप तक धावा मारा। श्रवण महावीर ने स्वच्छन्द विचरण के लिए अपने वस्त्रों तक को त्याग दिया। दिशाओं को उन्होंने अपना अम्बर बना लिया, वैशाली में जन्म लिया, पावा में शरीर त्याग किया। जीवनपर्यन्त घूमते रहे। मानव के कल्याण के लिए, मानवों के राह प्रदर्शन के लिये। और शंकराचार्य, बारह वर्ष की अवस्था में संन्यास लेकर कभी केरल, कभी मिथिला, कभी कश्मीर और कभी बद्रिकाश्रम में घूमते रहे। कन्याकुमारी से लेकर हिमालय तक समस्त भारत को अपना कर्मक्षेत्र समझा। सांस्कृतिक एकता के लिए, समन्वय के लिए, श्रुति धर्म की रक्षा के लिए शंकराचार्य के प्रयत्नों से ही वैदिक धर्म का उत्थान हो सका। घुमक्कड़ शब्द में कौन-सा प्रत्यय है ?

The children of M. G. Vidyalaya, had a wonderful time yesterday. They were captivated by the speed, agility and showmanship of magician, Kim Rathod. The children watched him spell-bound for two hours. All that broke the silence was a gasp of astonishment or the sound of spontaneous applause, appreciating a trick. Out of his magic wand came flowers, ribbons and garlands of every possible colour and seemingly unending length. It came in such quick succession that everyone was left gasping. One or two young children came up to examine the thin stick wondering how it could hold so much. They were really frustrated. As if that was not magical enough he made a rabbit pop out of an empty wooden box. It went hopping around the stage. It was soon put back into the box and seconds later, he pulled out a rat, soft, white and squeaking. The little ones seemed a little frightened by this, while the others clapped and cheered loudly. This was the grand finale. The children did not want it to end. They shouted 'encore', 'once more'. But Kim gave them a bright smile and vanished from the scene.
