Few bedrooms will be available to host devotees.

About This Project

Pilgrimage to God is a living, global spiritual research journey with four intentions:

This journey unfolds through immersion — living within different traditions and experiencing their paths of self-realization directly, one by one.

How This Journey Began

Two years ago, after a divorce and a period of illness, something became clear — everything I had leaned on could change or fall away. I saw that depending on the external for happiness would always leave me vulnerable. I had already been on the spiritual path for some years — questioning, seeking, but still within the comforts of a conventional life.

After a period of deep meditation, I felt I was given the courage to take a full leap in search of truth — like the seekers I had read about.

I closed my Ayurvedic practice in the Canary Islands and came to India with a one-way ticket — a leap of faith, in search of God, in search of truth.

There was also a quiet conviction within me that all religions are different paths pointing to the same truth. I wanted to see this for myself, and I would begin in India.

The Journey So Far

Since then , I have been walking across India — living simply, moving from place to place, staying in ashrams & learning from different lineages & enlightened masters i have encountered, training through the Indian system of Self Realization, which I had studied for several years prior.

This journey is not part of any institution or ashram.

I walk as a lone pilgrim.

*I share regular updates here, on my blog & some on the project instagram.

Why I Need Support

Traditionally, those who renounce the world and dedicate their lives to Self Realization do so within a monastery, ashram, or spiritual order. Within such structures, financially, their basic needs are supported, allowing them to remain fully focused on their path. My journey is different. I am not part of any institution or lineage. I walk independently, guided by an inner calling rather than belonging to a specific order. While this offers freedom, it also means there is no system supporting this way of life.In today’s world, there are very few structures that sustain a lone renunciate.

---

Why I Walk This Way

I chose not to commit to a single doctrine or tradition — not out of rejection, but from a sincere longing to understand the essence that lives within all paths. By walking across places, traditions, and ways of living, I seek to experience directly what is shared at the heart of them all. Not belonging to one path, but listening for what is common to all.

---

What This Journey is Giving

To sustain this path without depending on my family, I am beginning to share what naturally arises from this journey:

– a book emerging from reflections on this pilgrimage

– photography

– handmade art and crafts

These are not separate projects, but expressions of the same journey.

---

How Support is Used

Your support goes toward simple, essential living — food, travel between places, and basic accommodation — as well as materials for creating and sharing this work.

I live minimally. The intention is not comfort, but continuity of this path.

Even a small contribution helps sustain a day of this journey.

---

Looking Ahead

In time, my intention is to extend this into a small fund to support others who are sincerely walking a similar path without institutional backing.

I also would like to set up a multi-faith ashram in the future.

Welcoming your support should you resonate with the mission
