He desires a complete understanding of the philosophical messages that he had only perceived as words and concepts before, but had never truly experienced. He leaves his motherland in search of spirituality and self-realization and settles in India where he encounters numerous holy men. Norman becomes confused by the countless paths and approaches available to him. Finally, he finds a Guru who shows him the path to enlightenment.
