Maiah and Zak, two young adults living in New York, decided to embark on a hiking expedition to the Atlas Mountains in Morocco. Maiah is a student of Sufism, while Zak is skeptical of such philosophies. They joined a diverse group of hikers from around the world with the goal of trekking the seven valleys of the Atlas Mountains, known as one of the most challenging hikes globally. Their guide was Professor Ali Ansari, a sage and academic.
Throughout the journey, the group encountered numerous difficulties, often feeling unable to continue. At these moments, Professor Ansari drew on the parables and wisdom from Attar's "The Conference of the Birds" to inspire and rejuvenate the hikers. This wisdom proved effective, enabling the group to overcome each obstacle.
By the end of the hike, Zak, who had initially dismissed Eastern wisdom, emerged as a transformed individual, profoundly changed by the experience.
