A stunning tale of spiritual journey, prayer, and detachment told by a Christian pilgrim.

A stunning tale of spiritual journey, prayer, and detachment told by a Christian pilgrim.

This classic work of spiritual literature is the firsthand account of a pilgrim's journey as he endeavors to live out Saint Paul's instruction to ""pray without ceasing."" The narrator, an unnamed nineteenth-century peasant, sets out on his pilgrimage with nothing but a Bible, rosary, and some dried bread. As he walks, he recites the Jesus prayer (""Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me"")--a prayer that is said to quiet anxiety and fill the heart with love for all creation. With this prayer constantly on his lips, the pilgrim undergoes a profound spiritual education. These pages offer practical advice for every spiritual practitioner, translated in a way that is relevant, fresh, and inspiring.
