Overview of your Bodhgaya tour

I believe that traveling is not just about seeing places. It is an overwhelming spiritual experience where one can learn to connect with the unknown, other than connecting to oneself. It is a journey beyond the comfort zone, to seek the greater knowledge of patience and perseverance, discover a profound sense of peace, joy, and appreciation. In one way or another, you will grow and learn, and that's really what travel is all about. A spiritual journey is a process of reconciliation and education through enlightenment. It is as unique and individual as each individual is unique; and each of us eventually comes to attain the reconciliation and education in our own way, in our own time. On this tour with me, you will discover yourself rather than the place you will visit. This tour will enlighten you on the real essence of the world's ancient and very profound religions, Hinduism and Buddhism, by visiting the holiest place of Hindus-Varanasi and important Buddhist sites where Buddha in his lifetime visited.
