Sixty years ago today, on 25 July 1960, Brother Roger, of the Community of the Resurrection, spoke on "Pilgrims of the Absolute" at the first conference of the Anglican Students Federation of South Africa (ASF), held at Modderpoort in the Free State. It made such an impression that he was asked to speak the following year on "More Pilgrims of the Absolute". Here is a combined version of both papers http://www.khanya.org.za/pilgrims.htm For me, and for most of the others present, it was our first introduction to Beat Generation literature.
