Within this extraordinary memoir, Radhanath Swami weaves a colorful
tapestry of adventure, mysticism, and love. Readers follow Richard
Slavin from the suburbs of Chicago to the caves of the Himalayas as he
transforms from young seeker to renowned spiritual guide. The Journey
Home is an intimate account of the steps to self-awareness and also a
penetrating glimpse into the heart of mystic traditions and the
challenges that all souls must face on the road to inner harmony and a
union with the Divine. Through near-death encounters, apprenticeships
with advanced yogis, and years of travel along the pilgrim's path,
Radhanath Swami eventually reaches the inner sanctum of India's mystic
culture and finds the love he has been seeking. It is a tale told with
rare candor, immersing the reader in a journey that is at once engaging,
humorous, and heartwarming.
