Pilgrimage: The Modern Seeker’s Guide
In 2014, Tennessee-native Evans Bowen walked 500 miles of the Camino to Santiago, Spain with her 20-year-old daughter, Alexandra. This 40-day pilgrimage inspired this book and inspired Evans to encourage others to take the time to visit a place near home or around the globe, to open mind and heart to the Divine and bring healing and new meaning into their lives. Her sacred travel book, Pilgrimage: A Modern Seeker's Guide shares how this act is both an external journey to a place longed for and an internal journey to the center of our most authentic self.
A tradition of all religions, Pilgrimage is a journey to sacred sites as an act of devotion and dedication. It is time to expand the definition of Pilgrimage to inform modern life. Taking time to visit a place near home or around the globe, to open the mind and heart to the Divine, brings healing and new meaning to life.
Each part of the journey, from the first desire to visit a holy place, to the return home to integrate the experience, becomes the pilgrimage to expand our world, both body and soul. Combining practical steps for the physical journey and 40 days of inspiration for the spirit, this guidebook gives this time-honored journey to the Divine to inform the whole person in our increasingly fragmented world.
"Life is hard, and if we don't take the time to hear our own voices and reach out for more meaning, we will be swept up in the world and in danger of losing our lives to society, obligations, and fear."~Evans Bowen
