Title: Sometimes entertaining but spiritually barren
Review: There is perhaps no bigger waste of time than reading about spirituality from a journalist with little serious interest in his subject. I can't blame the author who admits in the title that he is just a "tourist" in the spiritual realm and I am not against some healthy skepticism in approaching this subject, but it seems to do this subject justice you must actually live, not just visit, the spiritual path with some sincerity for some time in order to recommend or criticize. Without a doubt some of the teachers and gurus he visits are easy marks for some cheap shots, but that's what they feel like -- cheap shots done for the sake of entertainment, not insightfulness. The amount of time spent on Theosophy and Mr.Creme is baffling given their relevant lack of importance today.
