Description

Nicholas Shrady. Shrady journeys to some of the most holy destinations in the world, & in his recollections we can see the beginnings of our own spiritual voyage. Some pilgrimage sites he talks about include: Medjugorje, Bosnia, the miraculous site of the Virgin Mary’s appearance; Konya, Turkey, where since 1271, people have traveled to the tomb of the Sufi mystic Rumi; the route through Spain to Santiago de Compostela, the burial site of St. James; & the source of the Ganges, high in the Himalaya, & the holy city of Varanasi, where the dead are cremated alongside the river’s banks. Shrady discovers the paradoxes & the hidden truths of religion, & he shares with us the sublime epiphanies & the absurd dilemmas that await a modern-day pilgrim.
