The Pilgrim Kamanita
by Karl Gjellerup
“He spent a lifetime searching for the Truth, never realizing it was sitting right beside him.”
Experience an epic odyssey of forbidden love, vast wealth, and profound loss as an Indian merchant’s son seeks the ultimate truth across lifetimes. As he recounts his journey to a humble stranger in the stillness of the night, he remains blissfully unaware that he is finally face-to-face with the Buddha himself.
