LEKA Kaisa & Christoffer

TOUR D’EUROPE

Auteur : Kaisa & Christoffer Leka

(The Brand new comic book by award Winning author : Kaisa Leka)

This is not a boot reserved only for cycling enthusiasts but will serve to spur all those who wish to realize their dreams.

It also fulfills one of the most important goals that books have, to provide the reader with a literary escape from everyday life.

The Yoga of road cycling.

This graphic novel tells the story of two aspiring yogis on a bike ride through Europe. Within the pages we learn about the roads they took, the people they met, and the food they ate. But just as it tells us about the external settings, it simultaneously depicts their internal journey.

For Kaisa and Christoffer, the road serves as a metaphor for the life of a yogi. On the road there are no quick fixes, no fifteen-minute formulas for fulfillment, no shortcuts. Just what seems to be an endless road, spanning over lifetimes, with progress so slow it seems indiscernible at times. Andy et even in the earliest stages it offers infinite reward, encouraging the thoughtful seeker to venture forth.

This is not a book about inventing a new form of yoga. Rather it is a book about the yogic frame of mind, of opening our minds and hearts in order to hear the road speak to us. It tells us about truths so obvious that we all too often miss them yet so profound that once they are heard it seems like the whole world suddenly is bathing in the light of a thousand suns.

The Bhagavad Gita teaches us that without effort and sacrifice we cannot attain anything of consequence. The road echoes the same words.
