From our home on the transformative Camino de Santiago in Spain, join me as we share stories with inspiring pilgrims, courageous adventurers and wise teachers from all over the world. Blessed to be living on this sacred path for over a decade and to have met, served and accompanied thousands of pilgrims, I’m honoured to be sharing some of these magical encounters. And, what we realise, is that these extraordinary outer caminos are really the invitation to walk our Inner Camino. These are conversations and explorations to inspire, enliven and explore camino wisdom and life wisdom.

I'm very excited to be able to offer this opportunity to you and live this life shaping experience together._________________Transformative Pilgrimage to the Sacred Mountain of Arunachala: In this episode of ‘Wisdom of the Way’ I am blessed to meet with Shankara, who shares his profound experiences and wisdom from his transformative journey that has led him to live his calling at the feet Arunachala Mountain in India - a famous pilgrimage walked by thousands daily. In this heartfelt conversation, Shankara discusses the significance of pilgrimage, the power of devotion, and the impact of spiritual practices like Agni Hotra (sacred fire ceremony). He beautifully shares some of his life story, his brave transition from being a pilot in the United States to following his heart’s calling to return to his mother land, India. Shankara speaks about his 90 days in silence, the importance of trust and surrender, and how aligning with one’s true calling can not only change the course of life but lead us to a life of much greater fulfilment and peace. The episode invites us to connect deeply with the sacredness of our inner journey and the wisdom already exists within us.00:34 Meeting Shankara: A Journey of Pilgrimage01:32 Invitation to our Indian Pilgrimage02:44 Shankara's Story: Living at Arunachala06:11 Shankara's Pilgrimage to India08:38 The Call to Freedom and Healing19:42 Finding a Master and Surrendering28:42 The Practice of 'I Am' and Inner Silence34:20 Arriving at Arunachala37:43 Introduction to Arunachala and Its Spiritual Significance38:37 The Practice of Sadhana and Its Importance40:24 Understanding Karma and the Mind's Conditioning43:34 The Power of Silence and Personal Transformation46:47 The Journey of 90 Days in Silence55:59 Founding Shivalaya and the Role of Agni Hotra (Fire Ceremony)01:04:15 The Technology and Benefits of Agni Hotra (Fire Ceremony)__________________________For other retreats, practices and more camino wisdom, sign up to our newsletter at:https://www.wisdomoftheway.com/about#subscribe
