It sounds like a man embarking on a spiritual transformation. He realizes he hasn't been living his life right, and gets ready to make a change.
Although the song references different spiritual traditions (Buddhism and Native American), I think the "house of stone and light" is a cathedral, and he is saying that his experiences with other traditions ultimately led him to come home to his own tradition (Christianity) in the end.
