Mitchell Genovese Outside Reading 1

I read an article recently on the Islamic Journey to Mecca.  For me I do not understand how it can be a spiritual journey for anyone with the sheer number of people that do the trek.  It just seems like no one would really have any time for reflection or privacy to sit and get something out of the experience.  I know that many people do get great feelings of spiritualness from it but it also seemed like a lot of people were doing it just because they were supposed to.  It makes you wonder if the journey that is supposed to be so spiritual has become more of a ritual that no longer has the same meaning.
