All of the worlds religions have their pilgrimages in which they prepare and discipline themselves to deeper prayer and meditation and to seek a mystical union with their God.Going on pilgrimages are some times done without a vehicle and to show humility as they seek closer communion with their very own higher self.Some will show their devotion by going on a pilgrimage on their knees.Everyone has their own way of serving God and going on a pilgrimage is only one way of expression of our faith.All of the worlds religions will one day come together under the name of true brotherhood and spirituality ,and we all can make a pilgrimage to that space within us all that is where God is to be found,in the form of the higher self.
