Discover Pilgrimages

Enable your faith to lead so

  • ⭐ The obscure diminishes,
  • ⭐ Your path opens.
  • ⭐ Values from scripture and sanctuary
  • ⭐ Go into the world
  • ⭐ Your faith fits to your life
This millennia-old tradition can be applied by you today. While faiths differ on “Heaven” as destination, all share belief of progression. Life is a journey, and pilgrimages (micro journeys) open clarity for Life’s quest.
Your faith may be in the Method of Science; or, meditations of Buddha releasing your suffering; or, the universalities of Sikhism, Baha’i, or Nature. Or your faith may originate in the pilgrimage of Abraham who followed the call of One God, with traditions then of Christianity, Judaism, Islam.
Going as a pilgrim, supreme issues are made specific. Each step discovers a next. You are on a personal journey, bringing you toward the supreme.
A pilgrimage functions as a language allowing you to communicate with, then through that to understand the grand existential toward which your faith directs.
As a religious text writes … or, as a painting patterns The Divine … or, as a holiday (holy day) distinguishes Time … a pilgrimage also distinguishes. It achieves this, by etching the Holy on Earth. Life flows on.
Our Path Often is Obscure

Others Started the Path -- Now You
The organization, Pilgrim of the World, allows you to individualize the grandeur of the Sacred. A diversity of options wait to make fit. As a publishing house makes available many religious texts, or a museum shows sculptures of many faiths, or calendars align holidays, Pilgrim of the World advances journey—the format being a walk through a sector of Creation that you customize.
Whatever your religion, from it a force bonds you to Creation, the energy connecting today to our destiny. Energy may turn one way or another, as does a river, as our faith carries us.
Faith can be understood as a handclasp, a bonding of my hand into that of The Divine. Having my hand held gives energy for my step, direction when confused, clarity for Life way. Join with the pilgrims who walk seeking.
Across centuries, pilgrims have braided thousands of strands across the Earth, pathways to the Sublime. They have woven a net of trails against travails of injustice. Pilgrims seek not an end to life journey, but a becoming toward solutions to answer enduring questions.

What We Do

With land, air, and oceans, we inherit trails that humans have made. Hope and loss are signed today onto these trails that today crisscross the planet. Some exhaust the Earth; others advantage on peoples.

Importantly, these trails connect toward horizons of hope where people can go. Pilgrim of the World finds and supports holy-growing trails on which you can go, alone or with colleagues. From such loops of action will knit a fabric of humans headed toward hope.

Start now. A first step is planning your pilgrimage. Distill your priorities. Then try a short, easy pilgrimage—it can be a simple as walking to your weekly religious service, not riding in a car. Go out into the world … then walk back home afterward, following a different matrix of streets, your sanctuary that was inside a building is now connecting your to of the world (not a world outside).

Walking to worship is only one option. Another might be in three mornings to walk as world wakes (not waking to images on mobile phone). Be with the dynamic changing world.

As study learns from wisdom, as prayer dialogues with the Divine, pilgrimage is physical travel. Physically, come together with Creation (which itself is going forward). Through the interfaith organization—Pilgrim of the World—awareness expands how to near the sacred (which is of the world, embodiment of Creation waiting to open for each of us). Find your trail there by walking it.

Engaging faith with the world. Inter-faith. First in our going. Then with what surely follows: our growing.

Grow on journeys earlier made. A cavalcade of journeys brought us into today. Energies we apply amplify, sanctify. Now further progress by joining this human procession: Justice and an Enduring Earth for All! By co-creating we continue Creation.

Collaborating travel shall pierce boundaries. Horizons are seen. Through fear-provoking boundaries we look toward this hope-filled reality of today: The future is loaned to us by our children.

Spaces within walls—temple, shirne, gurdwara, church, laboratory, library—exhibit message-conveying portraits of the Divine. Waiting outside are dynamics affecting the Divine. Opportunity is to join those dynamics, as pilgrims. Prove how people can sanctify Creation again. Poised is to partner.

We shall see approaching is ALL. We can then join (through responses) in responsibility for All. Continue the progress. Positioned from human actions are pilgrim achievements. By going out, we enter the sanctuary now existing. One-seventh of Earth has places protected—notably these achievements are by people, in co-creation of national parks, protected areas, AND PEOPLE.

People are not problem—making. Dynamics of what they are making positioned progress.

People in co-creation (already with one-seventh of Earth) also have their community lives improving from partnering. These are the consequence of dynamic-engaging pilgrimage. This new is not a reclusive, building boundaries into a sanctuary.

Rather, it is of the world, joining with All. Growing this commons, we gather in pilgrimages for wholeness’s being well. Yes.

Wholeness’s being well—in dynamics of the world, that is the meaning of Holy. This is what we inherit to walk toward a more Just and Lasting Future.
