The Fools' Journey is a chronicle of years of esoteric, spiritual and theoretical study and practice. It reflects the author's personal philosophies and contemplations over three decades.
On any great journey, we prepare before setting out. Perhaps we'll consult maps to plan a route. Maybe we'll break in a decent pair of walking shoes, check the weather forecasts for appropriate attire, and pack sufficient nutrients.
We may take heed of those who've made the journey before. Except of course we don't know any who've completed our journey.
