About this audiobook
This book details my once-in-a life experience in the Himalayan regions of Nepal, Bhutan, Tibet, and Myanmar. In an effort to become more educated about the way of life of its peoples, I discovered that religion is such an important part of their everyday lives. Also, as the lands become more integrated into the mountains, the feeling of something spiritual becomes noticeable. Maybe it is the solitude, the peacefulness, or could it be that the Himalayas possess a certain mystique. My travels took me into the cities and congested streets where I mingled with the locals and learnt about their culture, the historical and important sacred temples that support the regions' religions, and the near isolation in the mountains. These Himalayan regions possess a certain magic that one cannot encounter or experience elsewhere in the World, and I am truly thankful for the opportunity I have been given to venture into these lands. Become enlightened. Chapters include: Kathmandu - Religion, Temples, Bars, Chaos and Pollution; Soul Searching and Trekking in Nepal, an unforeseen relationship; Keeping it sacred in Bhutan; The Road to Tibet; Like a Sudden Hope in the Dark Night of the Soul; Connecting the Dots
