Why I choose to wander?

"Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive. "
Howard Thurman

In my quest for "truth", I have gone through numerous books, met Gurus, tried various spiritual practices and worshipped at holy places around the world. All this in the hope of finding the answers to some of fundamental questions that intrigue me, questions like:

Who am I?
Does God exist?
What is the purpose of life?

The more I sought answers, the more confused I got. That's when I read a quote that has influenced the way I lead my life, a quote by Jiddu Krishnamurti that says, "Truth is a pathless land".That's when I realized that I was seeking life's answers through prescribed paths and not really "thinking out of the box".

I decided to explore life, the inner as well as outer by actually stepping out of the box, out of the conditioned thinking patterns that have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I decided to be childlike in my curiousity and bold in my attitude towards my explorations. Thus began my wanderings in the pathless land of truth.

My wanderings have taught me a lot and I wish to share the fact that 99% of the times teaching meant stumbling onto truth.

There are many who have followed the same path, one of wandering. I have learned through their experiences and wish to share what I have learned as my offering to the universe.

"What do we leave behind when we cross each frontier? Each moment seems split in two; melancholy for what was left behind and the excitement for entering a new land"

Ernesto 'Che' Guevara

I wish to share my journey, my wanderings with a prayer in my heart that it may inspire others to start their wanderings, their wanderings into the pathless land of truth.
