Tears of Jupiter
Tears of Jupiter is the story of one woman’s pilgrimage through Portugal and Spain on the sacred Camino de Santiago — told through each footstep on her journey. In this endearing memoir, Shima honors the significance of looking back in order to move forward. In a foreign country, with nothing but a backpack and her thoughts, she walked nearly 500 kilometers in unyielding rain. This heart-searching solitude gave her a clear understanding of her Divine purpose and for Shima Shanti nothing was more profound.
