Welcome to week eight. In the following excerpt from The Caravan of Remembering, David reflects in his expedition journal about whether life mission is for all times and places, or just for the 'lucky few.'

Excerpt:

I remember a woman around Savitri's campfire asking, "Can the idea of life mission survive hard times? Is this an idea that only works in a good economy for the well-off?"

Savitri answered, "It is tempting to think so. Yet this is only the apparent side effect of your current culture. Having a purpose in life is as old as humankind, as old as the universe itself. It could be argued that the universe is itself purposeful. The One sends us with a purpose and, as you can see, people from all lands and cultures of the horizontal world come to the Caravan of Remembering. This is the work for all of us."
