Via Rishikesh: En Route to Chittavrittinirodha

By Paul Mason

The real life chronicle of a crazy quest, an epic hitchhiking trip, way back when...

A trip taken without preparation or proper funds, from England, through Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East, to India.

Paul Mason was just 18 years old when the notion of visiting India stirred in him. In order to find money for his travels he began selling off his possessions, but not being able to raise enough ready cash for the flight, he decided instead to hitchhike there, and in this seemingly hare-brained scheme he was accompanied by Yolanda, his Italian girlfriend. Their journey wasn't envisaged simply as a vacation or an adventure, but as a quest, an exploration of both inner and outer life, even as a pilgrimage of sorts, which, totally unexpectedly, resulted in the discovery and exploration of authentic Yoga Meditation.
