I am going on a spiritual Quest,(sorta like a modern day Peace Pilgrim thing), while my wife finishes her work experience as an RN in Maine. I will be traveling with just my backpack. I have enough money for food but need to find a place to sleep,(even a backyard will be fine), so as to be safe. I am leaving in mid Oct and would like to do this in Boise Idaho as that's where we will be living starting in July of 2010. Otherwise I will go to either Phoenix AZ or Santa Monica CA for the warmth. I wish to be around like-minded people who are positive, peaceful, and wish to wake up to the True Nature we all are. I have read the books(countless), have done meditation and yoga on my own. I have my wifes blessing to go on this spiritual journey. I believe solitude and silence are great teachers yet this is difficult to find with so many relatives and family around who just have not been given the gift to see thru the illusion of individuality. I have no specific choice of religion,as I see that any vehicle can awaken as long as you are genuine ,loving, full of devotion for what gives us expression, and peaceful. Some of my favorite readings have been- Ramana Maharshi-Jean Klein-Nisgardatti-Upanashids-Shankara-Alan Watts-Jeff foster-Adyasanti-Peace Pilgrim-Joko Beck-Douglas- Harding Vernon Howard-just to name a few. If anyone has any ideas or can help I would greatly appreciate it. Namaste Peace and Love to all as we are ALL beautiful Conscious Light.
