Introduction

How This Book Works

The 109th Bead

When you're traveling in India—especially through holy sites and Ashrams—you see a lot

of people wearing beads around their necks. You also see a lot of old photographs of naked,

skinny and intimidating Yogis (or sometimes even plump, kindly and radiant Yogis) wearing

beads, too. These strings of beads are called japa malas. They have been used in India for

centuries to assist devout Hindus and Buddhists in staying focused during prayerful meditation.

The necklace is held in one hand and fingered in a circle—one bead touched for every

repetition of mantra. When the medieval Crusaders drove East for the holy wars, they witnessed

worshippers praying with these japa malas, admired the technique, and brought the

idea home to Europe as rosary.

The traditional japa mala is strung with 108 beads. Amid the more esoteric circles of Eastern

philosophers, the number 108 is held to be most auspicious, a perfect three-digit multiple

of three, its components adding up to nine, which is three threes. And three, of course, is the

number representing supreme balance, as anyone who has ever studied either the Holy Trinity

or a simple barstool can plainly see. Being as this whole book is about my efforts to find

balance, I have decided to structure it like a japa mala, dividing my story into 108 tales, or

beads. This string of 108 tales is further divided into three sections about Italy, India and Indonesia—

the three countries I visited during this year of self-inquiry. This division means that

there are 36 tales in each section, which appeals to me on a personal level because I am writing

all this during my thirty-sixth year.

Now before I get too Louis Farrakhan here with this numerology business, let me conclude

by saying that I also like the idea of stringing these stories along the structure of a japa mala

because it is so . . . structured. Sincere spiritual investigation is, and always has been, an endeavor

of methodical discipline. Looking for Truth is not some kind of spazzy free-for-all, not

even during this, the great age of the spazzy free-for-all. As both a seeker and a writer, I find

it helpful to hang on to the beads as much as possible, the better to keep my attention focused

on what it is I'm trying to accomplish.

In any case, every japa mala has a special, extra bead—the 109th bead—which dangles

outside that balanced circle of 108 like a pendant. I used to think the 109th bead was an

emergency spare, like the extra button on a fancy sweater, or the youngest son in a royal

family. But apparently there is an even higher purpose. When your fingers reach this marker

during prayer, you are meant to pause from your absorption in meditation and thank your

teachers. So here, at my own 109th bead, I pause before I even begin. I offer thanks to all my

teachers, who have appeared before me this year in so many curious forms.

But most especially I thank my Guru, who is compassion's very heartbeat, and who so

generously permitted me to study at her Ashram while I was in India. This is also the moment

where I would like to clarify that I write about my experiences in India purely from a personal

standpoint and not as a theological scholar or as anybody's official spokesperson. This is why

I will not be using my Guru's name throughout this book—because I cannot speak for her. Her

teachings speak best for themselves. Nor will I reveal either the name or the location of her

Ashram, thereby sparing that fine institution publicity which it may have neither the interest in

nor the resources for managing.

One final expression of gratitude: While scattered names throughout this book have been

changed for various reasons, I've elected to change the names of every single person I

met—both Indian and Western—at this Ashram in India. This is out of respect for the fact that

most people don't go on a spiritual pilgrimage in order to appear later as a character in a

book. (Unless, of course, they are me.) I've made only one exception to this self-imposed

policy of anonymity. Richard from Texas really is named Richard, and he really is from Texas.

I wanted to use his real name because he was so important to me when I was in India.

One last thing—when I asked Richard if it was OK with him if I mentioned in my book that

he used to be a junkie and a drunk, he said that would be totally fine.

He said, "I'd been trying to figure out how to get the word out about that, anyhow."

But first—Italy . . .
