The New Pilgrim’s Progress is a modern retelling of John Bunyan’s 17th century classic “Pilgrim’s Progress.”
After escaping from the Dark Knight’s dungeon, Pilgrim and Truthful continue following the Way to the Celestial City. They come to the foothills of the Mystic Mountains where they meet some shepherds who offer them hospitality. The shepherds take them on a tour of the various parts of the Mystic Mountains.
They show them the Hill of Pride, Mount Fear, the Doors of Perception, Mount Transfiguration and the Lamasery, where they get a brief glimpse of the Dalai Lama. They see Shangri-La, made famous by novelist James Hilton. They see the highest peak of the Mystic Mountains, Mount Advaita, hidden in the clouds. From Inspiration Point they finally get a glimpse of their destination, the Pearly Gates of the Celestial City.
