Its 1,430 pages are usually read over about 48 hours, continuing through both day and night. A team of readers takes turns so that the reading continues without breaks or omitted passages.
For the Akand Path, include both what happens and why it matters: uninterrupted reading of the whole scripture, devotion, spiritual guidance and community unity.
