2019-10-09 Beginning Again--Listening for Our Deeper Aspirations 63:22
Donald Rothberg
Download Listen
On the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur, when it is said that the veils of ignorance are lessened, we explore ways to “begin again,” both in the moment and more generally,--to re-align our lives, guided also by Buddhist resources and by poets, sages, and activists. Through guided reflections, we examine (1) ways in which we are “off the mark,” in which we need re-alignment; (2) what we wish to let go of and/or forgive; and (3) our deeper aspirations for the next period of time.

Martin Aylward
Download Listen
Martin explores the inherent human longing for meaning and purpose, in its historical and religious contexts, and in the flawed ways we habitually seek wholeness or meaning. He describes the internalising of a deep meaningfulness that transcends ordinary understanding, entering into a harmony and resonance with life just as it is, constantly expressing its infinite yet goalless meaningfulness.
