O Diario de Um Mago
Originally uploaded by jianxia.
The first literary work of Paulo Coelho who is a brasilian song lyrics writer, journalist and an author. His pilgrimage in 1986 was to Santiago Cathedral, Galizia, Spain. This is one of the three pilgrimage in Christianity. This journey is about 700 kilometers, beginning from Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port and ending in Santiago. The book is not only about this route and his journey, but also about what we need for making our destinies into reality.
In this book, there are also some of thye spiritual exercises that Coelho learned from his guide. Those are;
- Seed Exercise
- Speed Exercise
- Rudeness Exercise
- Reporter’s Ritual
- Water Exercise
- Blue Sphere Exercise
- Burried Alive Exercise
- RAM Breathing Exercise
- Shadow Exercise
- Dance Exercise
respectively.
I suggest you to read his book along with O Alquimista (another book of Paulo Coelho) if you would like to know yourself, understand yourself and be in peace with yourself, and gain the courage of following one’s own destiny.
