Paulo Coelho - The Pilgrimage

This is a recollection of Paulo's experiences as he made his way across northern Spain on a pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela.
It begins where he undertakes his Regnus Agnus Mundi (RAM) initiation which he fails and then needs to undertake the Strange Road to Santiago. On this road he has to find his sword and then would be accepted into the the ranks of RAM.
He travels on the road to Santiago with another member of RAM, whom acts as his guide. His guide teaches him many meditation exercises and philosophies on love.
Through the journey he must gain insight into the simplicity of life and he is subsequently transformed.
The deeper meaning is finding one's own path and the discovery that the extraordinary is always found in the ordinary and simple ways of everyday people.
