This classic account of their pilgrimage on foot to the Buddhist holy places of India is read by Ajahn Sucitto and Nick Scott. Originally published as two books: Rude Awakenings and Great Patient One, the authors now read them as a weekly offering during the Corona virus times.

Reviews of the Books

“As the clarity and candour of the writing draws us into this remarkable journey, we soon experience an inner landscape of two extraordinary hearts and minds. This is a wonderful book.” Joseph Goldstein, Meditation Teacher & Author. “Armchair pilgrims take note! This book will provide blisters, backaches, frights, absurd laughter, and all-night meditation. Result? Exhaustion tinged with grace. In the age of the pop-epiphany, this is a throwback to what began it all: the slow road to enlightenment. It’s also a badminton in play between the Odd Couple of Spirituality, and one lovely read.” Tad Wise, Author of Buddhist travel books.
