Traveling through New Mexico, Northern California, and later to Calcutta, New Delhi, Dharamsala, and Bangkok, Merton engages with monks of other traditions and reflects on the events of the 1960s, including the assassinations of Martin Luther King, Jr., and Robert Kennedy. His interactions include a profound meeting with the Dalai Lama, whom he recognizes as a kindred spirit.
