Abstract

This chapter explores the concept of Transformative Pilgrimage Learning (TPL) in light of transformative learning theory, what it means to live “life as pilgrimage” in light of having gone on a number of physical pilgrimage journeys. In particular, the authors write as aging academics and explore what the concept of TPL means for dealing with the Big Questions of life, namely love, death, and legacy, and what it means for their current areas of practice as professors of lifelong learning, and nursing education, and their continuing work as lifelong learners as they move toward retirement.
