“My name is Om, only Om.” He was young and smiling.
“I left before sunrise. I am walking from my home in Hoshangabad to the temple of Salkanpur, up on that hill. You see, I just got a job, I need to thank the gods! İ will return home tonight.”
I had not realized he was barefoot, wearing a freshly ironed shirt but no shoes.
We spent three months driving over 10,000 km across India in a second-hand van, a Maruti Eeco, sleeping in it. I was intrigued by the people we saw walking along the side of the highway. I stopped to hear their stories. What goes on in the mind of the dedicated wanderer? Is it about a spiritual quest, a need for clarity, healing?
