We were travelling at a breakneck speed on the modern expressway and the other side of the road was not much in view due to the large width of the central verge. The three+ highway was a master construction and the better vehicles zipped past from either flank in the mellow sunlight guarded by thickets that roared past in the din of thick abrasion of the wheels on the concrete road which created a monotonous grind in the mind as you focussed deep on the lanes. Unknowingly there came a time when most of the vehicles in view were travelling at the same speed and it felt as if we were travelling either to eternity or to know where.
Suddenly I recalled time travel in a tunnel on a superhighway. Travel at 100...200....400 kmph and get sucked into the tunnel and end up on the other side light years in space and gradually decelerate to 400...200....100 and arrive at the other end. Simple and sweet for an interplanetary exodus of a few light years! Just like you were visiting a friend on a sunday evening to a suburb through a subway. You would also recall watching Hindu mythological TV series in which Gods disappear from Swarg ( Literally heaven -but let us just call this a planet) and appearing on Prithvi (Earth- another planet).
Simply nerve shattering!
