| Synopsis: |
After ten years' intense study of Indian art and philosophy, Joseph Campbell embarked on a long-postponed journey. Searching for the transcendent, he found instead stark realities: growing nationalism, cultural and religious rivalry, poverty, the impact of foreign aid, and a prevalent culture of what he called "baksheesh", or alms. This journal chronicles the disillusionment and revelation that changed the course of his life. |
