Satish Kumar - 8000-Mile Peace Pilgrimage

The guest for this launch episode of Follow Your Blissters is Satish Kumar, the former monk, environmentalist and legendary peace activist. Satish is celebrated worldwide for the remarkable two and a half year peace pilgrimage he walked from India to the USA (and onto Japan) in the early Sixties, without spending any money and eating only vegetarian food.  In this episode, we retrace the steps of this extraordinary voyage Satish made while just in his mid twenties, facing extreme dangers and hardships along the way - including being held up at gunpoint twice - to take a stand for world peace and nuclear disarmament. Satish’s walk is a classic example of The Hero’s Journey with all its trials, tribulations, inner transformation, and bringing back a powerful boon to share – his story and its assimilated lessons for peace. Enjoy the journey!
