I feel a shift in my view of the world after this read. I didn’t expect to enjoy it as much as I did! Would recommend if you like a classical spiritual journey through trial and error and unexpected teachers along the way. I thought this was the story of Buddha beforehand, but the Buddha is an actual character in this story!
