How the "in" and "on" in this sentence differently mean?

Is it title of something ? like a book or an article ?– CardinalCommented Aug 18, 2015 at 19:22

I think you'd better provide more information, context or ..– CardinalCommented Aug 18, 2015 at 19:23

With singular, I think it should be "on", with plural, more often "in".– Victor BazarovCommented Aug 18, 2015 at 19:43

1This is not a sentence. Thus it is hard to determine which would be more apt. Both are good grammatically.– Brian HitchcockCommented Aug 19, 2015 at 7:43

1A more common construction for a title would be "Buddhism, the journey to peace", implying that [the practice of] Buddhism is a journey to peace.– The PhotonCommented Dec 17, 2015 at 2:36

Based on your provaided details, could be the next:
- In = inside
- On = over, about

It is "on the journey", see Oald. I think "on the journey" is analogue to "on the way". http://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/definition/english/journey_1?q=journey
