Ithaca Is The Journey

While the odyssey traced in Ithaca Is The Journey is highly personal, its central insight relates to the odyssey of all. Spiritual journeyers are invited by these pages to remember the great secret: the Promised Land they are yearning for is somehow the very ground upon which they stand; the haven they hope to find at their journey's end is, as sages have long mysteriously suggested, no where other than at hand. The paradox of life thus has it that we are to honor our homesickness by continuing to search far and wide and deep, and simultaneously to smile from our mystic's soul to know that we're already home. Let another's evolution from Catholicism to Quakerism with multiple spirit-riches accruing along the way serve to deepen your appreciation of how far or wide or deep your own evolution has taken you, and how close you just might discover yourself to be, even as your sails still catch stiff breezes, to Ithaca.
