Young people today—
and really, anyone still new on their spiritual path, no mattertheir age—
are living in a world unlike any before.
A world where, with a single tap on a screen,
thousands of voices rush in at once:
traditional teachers,
modern philosophers,
therapists,
selfproclaimed “awakened ones,”
and new healing methods appearing every day.
Social media opens countless doors—
but the more doors there are,
the harder it becomes to know which one leads out.
There is plenty of information,
but very little light.
Teachings are everywhere,
but true refuge is rare.
The young seeker wants to find a path,
but the more he searches,
the more confused he becomes.
He wants to understand the Dharma,
but gets pulled into contradictory teachings.
He wants to practice,
but doesn’t know where to begin.
Amid this confusion, one truth becomes clear:
People today are not lacking spiritual longing—
they are lacking a place
to illuminate that longing,
a place to return to,
a place to rest.
And so, like the young man in this story,
many of us turn to new perspectives—
including the teachings of Jiddu Krishnamurti,
a man who “stood outside all religions,”
yet touched a truth strikingly close to the Buddha’s.
The young man could only say:
“There is something strange about him…
A spiritual teacher who belongs to no religion.”
That strangeness confused him—
but it also opened a new doorway.
This 60day journey begins from that confusion—
from a young person lost in a forest of information,
from a heart longing to understand
yet exhausted by too many voices.
He returns to his teacher’s hermitage,
not to gather more theories,
not to collect more knowledge,
not to become “more spiritual.”
He returns to recover a clear way of seeing—
to look at the Dharma through the light of Krishnamurti,
to understand that truth belongs to no one,
that religions are like the shape of a tree,
while truth is the water flowing through it.
This journey is a journey of returning:
returning to the teacher,
returning to oneself,
returning to light one’s own candle,
returning to the truth that has always been here—
in the breath,
in the emotions,
in each falling leaf.
Following this 60day journey
is like watching a river flow back to its source.
There are moments when,
amid the rush of life and the dense forest of information,
we feel we’ve lost something essential—
not knowledge,
not goals,
but the clear seeing we once had.
This 60day journey is written as a meditation journal,
a story,
a path of returning.
Each day is a small step:
a breath cared for,
a feeling recognized,
a habit illuminated,
a fear understood,
a boundary dissolved,
a door opened.
You may read each day
as if reading a page from your own journal.
You may pause anywhere
to listen to what your heart is saying.
You may go slowly,
go quickly,
or go back again—
for this journey does not ask you to “try harder.”
It simply invites you to return.
If you wish,
walk with me through these 60 days—
as we follow a young man learning to look back into himself.
And perhaps,
in each of his steps,
you may find yourself returning too.
