Description
SANTIAGO TRAVELLER: My Pilgrimage to a Hidden Treasure:
This is a story of physical endurance, spiritual aspiration, historic myth and startling truth that beams a guiding light to the struggles of modern man. It is the story of myth, legend and folklore that the writer encounters as he walks his third Camino de Santiago, looking back on his first and second pilgrimages.
The Way of pilgrimage uncovers outward signs and symbols that lead through the myth of the finite world to an infinite spiritual completeness. The lessons herein set a template for living that to a great degree is lacking in our modern hedonistic lifestyle. The story uncovers myths of the Camino, lessons of romantic lust, false belief in medical treatment for mental abnormalities and unreal desire to fulfil symbolic needs that can only be satisfied through the language of the heart…
THE SWORD OF DISCERNMENT
The work is both fact and fiction of myth and legends, symbols and signs Doug encounters on a spiritual awakening as he comes to terms with his inner demons, creative imagination and search for an outward symbol of his inner decision to live by an ancient rite, a sword of discernment.
