The journeys described in this volume cut across a number of diverse counties and
represent very different experiences. They have one thing in common, however, that
binds them together in the spirit of which they were written, namely SOUL. Whether
visiting the mountainous regions of the Karakorum in Northern Pakistan, or making
the ritual circumambulation in the Grand Mosque at Makka, the author of these tales
became a pilgrim soul in search of experiences in distant lands that have the power
to touch the pilgrim soul within us all.

"Much more than just an engaging book of travel essays and adventures among interesting peoples in exotic lands this book offers a rare glimpse into how outer journeys can become passages to the soul. The author's own spiritual sensibility allows the reader to experience something of the inner meaning of witnessing the Face of God in all things." - M. Ali Lakhani, Author, and Editor of Sacred Web
