Anonymous. The Way of the Pilgrim. Trans. Olga Savin. Boston: Shambhala Publications, 2001.
In this book, Anonymous shares his deeply personal experience of wandering across Russia as a solitary pilgrim, as he pursues the practice of ceaseless prayer. Offered as a series of journal-style writings, The Way gives readers insight into the daily life of this devoted pilgrim, including his yearnings, inner struggles, and the deepening of his faith along the way. Anonymous’ perspective was tremendously helpful in offering a well-documented, autobiographical example of nineteenth century Individualized pilgrimage, of which there are surprisingly few.

Avabhasa, Da. The Knee of Listening. Clearlake, CA: The Dawn Horse Press, 1992.
The Knee of Listening shares the life story and spiritual journey of American-born guru Da Avabhasa. While offering a lucid account of his own mystical experiences, both at home and in India in the company of his own gurus, his own pilgrimage to the sacred sites of Christianity was most useful in considering pilgrimage as a practice undertaken by both ordinary people as well as those who are considered “holy” men and women. As a work of spiritual autobiography, this book offers readers an extraordinary story of the process of enlightenment in a distinctly contemporary American perspective.


Bernstein, Richard. Ultimate Journey. New York: Vintage, 2001.
Bernstein’s journey along the ancient path of Hsuan Tsang is multifaceted: it is part historical account, part cultural exploration, and partly the adventure of an agnostic seeker who’s not even sure what he’s looking for. It’s a well-written, thoughtful, and honest work, as Bernstein takes the reader along his months-long journey from China to India. While I found his perspective filled with limitations of his own making, his book provides two thorough accounts of pilgrimage: one from ancient China, another from the contemporary west, and both are excellent accounts of Individualized Pilgrimage.

Bharadwaj, Monisha, and Nitish Bharadwaj. A Pilgrimage to Kailash-Manasarovar. Mumbai, India: India Book House, 2002.
Written by two highly educated Hindu pilgrims, this book offers a concise introduction to the sacred Hindu pilgrimage to Mt. Kailash in western Tibet. While providing a thorough amount of information about the history and cultural traditions of the pilgrimage, the authors also write from their own personal experiences of making the pilgrimage, and the work is full of joy and insight. This work provided useful information about Tibetan Institutional Pilgrimage, particularly when considering the cultural tradition of pilgrimage surrounding this holy mountain.

Brierley, John. A Pilgrim’s Guide to the Camino Fisterra. Findhorn, Scotland: Findhorn Press, 2003.
This is intended as the companion guidebook to the following listing, and within it, Brierley guides the pilgrim along the Finisterre extension from Santiago to the Atlantic coast. Like the Camino Frances guide, this book offers practical information and insight about the final extension of the Santiago pilgrimage, especially as the pilgrim comes to the end of the journey mentally and emotionally, as well as physically. In much the same way as in the Camino Frances guide, Brierley’s reflections and guidance to the transformed pilgrim proved most useful toward my work, primarily related to the Post-pilgrimage stage of the journey.

Brierley, John. A Pilgrim’s Guide to the Camino Frances. Findhorn, Scotland: Findhorn Press, 2003.
Brierley, in this book, guides pilgrims along the more than thirty stages of the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage, offering well-researched information on all the pertinent details of the day-to-day journey along the path. Though largely intended as a guidebook for pilgrims who are walking the Camino, Brierley shares his own insight and reflections from his own pilgrimage, as well as the thoughtful words of a variety of writers and spiritual teachers. While not intended as either an autobiography or analysis of pilgrimage, Brierley offers both with grace and eloquence, and his thoughts, particularly those related to Post-pilgrimage, were of great assistance in both my own research, as well as my own experience.

Chodron, Pema. When Things Fall Apart. Boston: Shambhala, 1997.
In this book, Buddhist nun and spiritual teacher Pema Chodron offers wisdom, meditation techniques, advice, and ancient teachings to her readers, primarily through the lens of the Buddhist notion of impermanence, that everything constantly changes. Both an excellent introduction to Buddhism, and companion book for those who have experienced difficult change in their lives, Chodron’s humor and honesty are of tremendous value, especially when considered beside so many “feel good” books of the New Age movement. Within my work, Chodron offered the experience and wisdom of a woman who has spent many years of her life exploring spiritual transformation, and she provided clear insight into many of the common states and stages of spiritual practice that are equally applicable to the experience of transformation through pilgrimage.

Coleman, Simon and John Elsner, editors. Pilgrim Voices. New York: Berghahn Books, 2003.
This book is a collection of essays that all explore a variety of works all written by pilgrims throughout history, and primarily explores the process of journalling and personal writing that many pilgrims have used to explore, record, and reflect upon their journeys. Highly academic in nature, this work gives the reader a tremendous amount of information to process, much of which may or may not be available to the general public or even in the English language. The essay by Alexia Petsalis-Diomidis provided most useful in my research, as she compared written accounts of pilgrimage from three vastly different time periods and cultures, which offered a lot of insight into the goals of those pilgrimages, and particularly, the idealism that influenced the experience of two of those pilgrims.

Cousineau, Phil. The Art of Pilgrimage. Berkeley, CA: Conari Press, 1998.
Cousineau’s book is filled with a tremendous amount of information, from history and personal vignettes, to advice to those planning to take a pilgrimage journey, to stories and travel narrative, all intending to offer the reader a comprehensive overview of pilgrimage. It is highly readable, humorous, insightful, and could easily guide anyone who felt inclined to make a pilgrimage through the process of planning, navigating through a variety of experiences, and integrating the changes that result. Cousineau’s book was one of the most helpful in my own work, providing a variety of examples that, when added to other memoirs and my own personal experience, allowed me to develop Part II of my process paper, combining the structure of the journey and the inner phases as well.

Davidson, Linda Kay and David M. Gitlitz. Pilgrimage: From the Ganges to Graceland: An Encyclopedia. Santa Barbara, CA: ABC-CLIO, 2002.
This two volume encyclopedia offers a plethora of historical and cultural information about nearly every pilgrimage on earth, as well as some interpretation and analysis. Equally valuable to the curious armchair traveller, historian, and cultural anthropologist, Davidson and Gitlitz bring a diversity of information about pilgrimage in its many manifestations all into two volumes that are highly accessible. This comprehensive work provided me a tremendous amount of information about a variety of pilgrimages within individual religious and cultural traditions, and was quite helpful in guiding me to discover the commonalities and differences among the great traditions of pilgrimage.

Emerson, Ralph Waldo and Henry David Thoreau. Nature/Walking. Boston: Beacon Press, 1991.
These two famous works by two beloved Transcendentalists explore the movement in the mid-nineteenth century toward the sacred experience of immersing oneself in nature, and are both bold and eloquent representatives of the Transcendentalist philosophy. Both works offer the reader inspiration to step out into the woods and explore, as well as accomplishing a slow, rhythmic pace of the written word that offers the reader a shift in his/her own pace as well, creating a meditative state of mind. Thoreau’s essay was most informative for my purposes, offering his observations of himself and the world around him as he explored his own spiritual practice of walking in the woods, which was tremendously informative in considering Phase One and Phase Two.

Gilligan, Carol. The Birth of Pleasure. New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 2002.
In this work, Gilligan shares her research into a particular developmental state in children that leads to the loss of their authentic voices, and in turn leads them to experience a state of conflict with much of what they feel and know. More than just an exploration of child psychology, this work offers an accessibly written investigation of the process by which we all become separated from our truest selves, and through carefully chosen examples, including mythology and literature, Gilligan illustrates this process, as well as the ways that we are affected by it throughout our lives. Gilligan’s ideas felt like the missing link in my own work, providing insight into what much of the spiritual search is all about from a psychological perspective, and was very helpful in interpreting the inner phases of pilgrimage and transformation as well.

Gitlitz, David M. & Linda Kay Davidson. The Pilgrimage Road to Santiago. New York: St. Martin’s Press, 2000.
This book is a comprehensive guide to the Camino de Santiago, including a tremendous amount of information about the history and culture of the towns, villages, and churches along the way. While it is an excellent companion to the pilgrim who is fascinated by history, art, and architecture, it is also an excellent introduction to the Camino’s history as well. This book was instrumental in my researching of the Camino prior to my own journey, and provided much of the knowledge that I took to the path with me.

Harvey, Andrew. Hidden Journey: A Spiritual Awakening. New York: Penguin Books, 1991.
Harvey’s book is an intimate account of his many pilgrimages to India to spend time in the company of his guru, Mother Meera, and shares much of his own process of spiritual transformation. Part travel narrative, part spiritual autobiography, this work shares Harvey’s travels to and from India, and the complex unfolding of the process of enlightenment that offered him torture and bliss over the course of many years. His openness and vulnerability were wonderfully informative in my own research of the inner transformation of pilgrimage, and were instrumental in exploring the inner phases of pilgrimage.

Hesse, Herman. Wandering. Toronto: Doubleday, 1972.
This short work by Hesse is part poetry, part sketchbook, part narrative, and is a delightful written rumination about one of his own wandering experiences. While it is primarily a patchwork piece, offering beautifully written short pieces that share moments of his own experience, in its tone, this work captures much of the actual experience of pilgrimage as well, and would inspire many people to, at the very least, take a walk in the woods. Several passages in Hesse’s work seemed to capture the exact feeling or idea that I have often had about my own journeys, and in much the same perspective as the Transcendentalists, Hesse offered insight into the early stages and phases of pilgrimage.

Housden, Roger. Sacred Journeys in a Modern World. New York: Simon & Schuster, 1998.
In this book Housden shares a series of his own pilgrimages from around the world, in a variety of places both exotic and ordinary, spiritual and secular. Housden’s work is excellent travel writing, historically informative , and an important example of the contemporary impulse to incorporate travel into spiritual exploration and practice. His journey to St. Catherine’s Monastery on the Sinai of Egypt was most informative for my own work, sharing his story with vulnerability and openness, and contributing to my own exploration of the inner phases of pilgrimage.


Howarth, Sam and Enrique R. Lamadrid. Pilgrimage to Chimayo. Santa Fe, NM: Museum of New Mexico Press, 1999.
This short, yet informative work is filled with photographs, brief statements from pilgrims, and a thorough history of the pilgrimage to Chimayo in northern New Mexico. It shares the history and cultural development of one of the few clearly established pilgrimages in the United States, and could be of interest to travellers to New Mexico who are interested in sacred sites, as well as Catholics seeking a place of pilgrimage closer to home than Rome, the Holy Land, or Santiago. This book was particularly helpful in my own research when considering the role of pilgrimage in America, especially those that are syncretistic, combining traditions of the Native Americans and the implanted religions of the European settlers.

James, William. The Varieties of Religious Experience. New York: Random House, 1994.
This series of lectures from 1901-1902 was intended by James to be an exploration of personal religion, as opposed to institutional religion, particularly the connection between individual personalities of those who have had mystical or religious experiences. It is a bold exploration of religion, and offers readers a challenging series of ideas that expand traditional definitions of religion, and is particularly influenced by the Transcendentalist philosophy. James’ ideas were particularly informative as I sought to define Individualized Pilgrimage and the transformative experiences that often accompany pilgrimage of all kinds.

Keen, Sam. Learning to Fly. New York: Broadway Books, 1999.
In this book, Keen shares his own process of exploring his spirituality and mind through the practice of learning the flying trapeze, which he began in his early sixties. His moving, eloquently written work is an inspirational account of his own transformation through this practice, as the intense visceral challenges of learning the trapeze, and is part trapeze and circus history and part spiritual memoir. Keen’s book surprised me in the ways that his own journey through the air (though not at all connected to travelling) often paralleled the inner journey that pilgrims experience on the road, and was particularly informative as I explored the inner phases of pilgrimage.

Kumar, Satish. No Destination. Dartington, England: Green Books, 1992.
Kumar’s life as a pilgrim, shared in this book, is nothing short of extraordinary, spanning his experiences from his childhood as a wandering Jain monk in India, to his political walking pilgrimage from India to Washington, D.C., to his pilgrimage in honor of his fiftieth birthday.
A beautiful story of his own spiritual unfoldment, this memoir is a fascinating telling of one contemporary Indian man’s pilgrimage lifestyle, highly influenced by the political figure Vinoba Bhave, a contemporary of Ghandi. Kumar’s book was particularly informative in my researching contemporary pilgrimage traditions, and the impulse of many individuals to create journeys outside of those traditions, as well as the inner process of transformation that occurs in the various stages and phases of pilgrimage.

McManus, Erwin Raphael. Uprising: A Revolution of the Soul. Nashville, TN: Nelson Books, 2003.
McManus, an American Christian pastor, intends through this book to encourage Christians to deepen their faith through exploring a series of spiritual themes. Considering faith to be an adventure to be gradually explored as it unfolds, he provides a series of personal stories and scriptural interpretations that guide the reader through their own devotional practice. McManus’ book offered a contemporary Christian perspective of the process of spiritual transformation, as well as thoughts and ideas about the problems of contemporary life that often lead people to the spiritual crisis that pushes them to explore their spirituality with more urgency, which often leads seekers to the pilgrimage road.

Moore, Thomas. Soul Mates. New York: Harper Perennial, 1994
Moore explores “soul” in this book, and in a variety of perspectives that extend far beyond the suggestion of the title, including creativity, relationships of all kinds, and the human conflict between wanting to be free as well as connected. This work is part inspirational spiritual book and part psychological study, and focuses on the healing of the “soul” that many people feel is either damaged or lost in the contemporary western world. Moore’s book was particularly helpful in considering the problems and conflicts that many people feel in relation to the ways they live in contemporary society, which is often the impetus that leads people to undertake pilgrimage.

Osho. Love, Freedom, Aloneness. New York: St. Martins Griffin, 2001.
In this book, contemporary spiritual teacher Osho considers these three fundamental impulses of human beings, and the role of each in the life and spiritual unfoldment of the individual. Osho offers wisdom and insight into the struggles that people often feel in both togetherness and aloneness, and this book is particularly of interest to those contemplating relationship and solitude in spiritual traditions rooted in eastern mysticism. In my research, this book was particularly helpful as I explored the conflicts that individual people experience in relation to ordinary life, the longing that leads them to explore their spirituality, and the process of unfoldment that is the result of that longing.



Pilgrim, Peace. Peace Pilgrim: Her Life and Work in Her Own Words. Santa Fe, NM: Ocean Tree Books, 2004.
This book is a compilation of a variety of Peace Pilgrim’s talks and writings, as well as articles that appeared in various media about her, and generally shares the story of her pilgrimage for peace that lasted for nearly thirty years. Compiled by her followers after her death, this book shares the story of her journey, her passionate vision for world peace, and the spiritual philosophy that she cultivated during her remarkable journey around America, and is an inspiration to anyone who seeks to find ways to make change for the better in the world. This work was tremendously helpful in my research, offering both intimate personal experiences from her pilgrimage, as well as a well-written description of her own spiritual awakening.

Rudhyar, Dane. Rhythm of Wholeness. Wheaton, IL: Quest, 1983.
Rudhyar, in this book, explores his theory of the evolution of humanity through a series of psychological stages, and offers his understanding of the struggles that many people are feeling in the post-industrialized world today through these theories. His work is a dense, slow-reading exploration, and is often difficult to follow, but is of interest to anyone who is seeking a greater understanding of the spiritual evolution of humanity. This book was particularly helpful in considering the conditions of the world and in the life of the individual that are often experienced as an intense struggle for authenticity and meaning.

Scaperlanda, Maria Ruiz & Michael. The Journey: A Guide for the Modern Pilgrim. Chicago: Loyola Press, 2004.
The Scaperlandas, in this book, provide the reader both a series of stories from their own pilgrimages and a comprehensive guide to help spiritual seekers to choose or create their own pilgrimages. This book is part travel memoir, part spiritual memoir, and a great part thoughtful analysis of what makes travel into a powerful pilgrimage experience, and is of great value to any spiritual seeker, whether one is planning a spiritual journey or simply following the spiritual journey of life. This work was tremendously useful in my research in a variety of ways, including the stages and phases of the journey, from the spark to the return home.

Schneebaum, Tobias. Keep the River on Your Right. New York: Grove Press, 1969.
In this book, Schneebaum shares with grace and eloquence his journey into the Amazon, where he spends time living at a mission, then continues deeper into the jungle and lives with an indigenous tribe reputed to be cannibals. Offering great observations and insight into the cultures he encounters, Schneebaum’s book is an extraordinary travel memoir. His attention to his own personal reactions, psychological shifts, and inner longings in relation to the entire experience were greatly informative in my own exploration of the connection between the journey in the world and its parallel inner experiences.

Schuon, Frithjof. The Transcendent Unity of Religions. Wheaton, IL: Quest Books, 1984.
Schuon’s book is a dense and rich exploration of the connections between all of the world’s formal religions, and gives particular attention to the manifestations of esotericism and exotericism in a variety of traditions, as he considers the traditions and rituals of each in relation to this fundamental difference in perspective. This work is of particular interest to those who are exploring comparative religion, specifically in the ways that individuals, as opposed to cultures, experience religion. Schuon’s work was most helpful in my research of the two primary manifestations of pilgrimage: Institutional and Individualized.

Stanton, Edward F. Road of Stars to Santiago. Lexington, KY: The University Press of Kentucky, 1994.
In this book, Stanton shares the story of his journey along the Camino de Santiago, including meetings with an array of fellow pilgrims, as well as his own inner struggles and insights. Though of particular interest to those curious about the Camino de Santiago, Stanton’s book is a beautiful memoir in its own right, as well as an excellent travel narrative. In my own research, Stanton’s work was most helpful as I considered both the motivations that inspire people to take pilgrimages, as well as the inner phases of the journey.

Turner, Victor and Edith L. B. Image and Pilgrimage in Christian Culture. New York: Columbia University Press, 1978.
Turner’s work is one of few significant books that seek to approach pilgrimage from a theoretical point of view, and is an excellent analysis of Institutional pilgrimage traditions. This work is highly informative and considers the rituals of pilgrimage carefully, but is hardly light reading; Turner’s work is a comprehensive anthropology of Christian pilgrimage. His work was instrumental as I researched Institutional Pilgrimage.

Villoldo, Alberto. Shaman, Healer, Sage. New York: Harmony Books, 2000.
Villoldo, in this book, explores a variety of practices and philosophies that come from his own pilgrimages to the Andes, as well as sharing stories of his adventures, as well as his meetings with several shamans that guided him in his own spiritual unfoldment. Though intended as a practical guidebook for those interested in incorporating shamanic practices into their daily lives, Villoldo’s book offers an excellent introduction to some of the fundamental ideas of Andean shamanism as well. The personal stories Villoldo shares here were most helpful in my research, primarily as he offered ideas about initiation and sacred space, both fundamental in pilgrimage.

Wieland-Burston, Joanne. Contemporary Solitude. York Beach, ME: Nicolas-Hays, 1996.
In this book, Wieland-Burston explores the psychology of solitude, both in the sense that it isolates people, causing suffering, and in the sense that it offers other people freedom and silence. Through personal stories, psychological analyses, and mythology, she explores a variety of human reactions to solitude, as well as considering the religious inclination toward solitude since the beginning of written history. Her analyses of solitude, both as it was embraced historically by artists and spiritual masters, and as it is often embraced and experienced in contemporary society, were most informative in my research.

Wolfe, Michael (editor). One Thousand Roads to Mecca. New York: Grove Press, 1997.
In this expansive work, Wolfe has assembled personal narratives and stories of those making the pilgrimage to Mecca over the past thousand years, including his own. While the pilgrimage to Mecca is restricted to Muslims, this work offers tremendous insight to anyone interested in understanding or exploring this exclusive journey or in the Islamic faith and practices. Due to its restrictive nature, this is probably the only pilgrimage that has not been influenced by outside cultures and traditions, and in that way, Wolfe’s book was tremendously useful as I explored Institutional Pilgrimage and traditions.



Wriggins, Sally Hovey. The Silk Road Journey with Xuanzang. Boulder, Colorado: Westview Press, 2004.
In this book Wriggins explores the historical journey of Xuanzang, or Hsuan Tsang, as he wandered from China to India in the seventh century in search of the original teachings of the Buddha. It is both a tremendous account of historical pilgrimage, as well as ancient travel itself, and is of particular interest to those people following the path of Buddhism as it spread throughout the ancient world. This work was an excellent companion to Richard Bernstein’s book, which also explores Hsuan Tsang’s path, and Wriggins offered an excellent historical account of this example of an ancient Individualized Pilgrimage.
