Episodes

Yunus Emre - Tue, 27 Jun 2006

9m · Published 27 Jun 16:35
Yunus Emre - "True speech is the fruit of not speaking." - with commentary by Ivan M. Granger. With this song, Yunus Emre gives us a sharply teasing reminder that even if we follow all of the rules of our religious tradition, that's not the same thing as achieving saintliness or holiness.

Akka Mahadevi - Mon, 5 Jun 2006

8m · Published 05 Jun 17:18
Akka Mahadevi - "You are the forest" - with commentary by Ivan M. Granger. I really like the image of God (in this case, Shiva) as a forest, as every tree in the forest, and simultaneously as the myriad of animals "playing in and out / of all the trees".

4m · Published 15 May 17:15
Mary Oliver - "Sunrise" - with commentary by Ivan M. Granger. Another way to enter fire today from Mary Oliver...

Abu-Said Abil-Kheir - "Love came" - with commentary by Ivan M. Granger.

Hakim Sanai - Wed, 26 Apr 2006

9m · Published 26 Apr 17:39
Hakim Sanai - "Belief brings me close to You" - with commentary by Ivan M. Granger. Belief, devout religious practice will bring you close, but only so far... (And Ivan gets a little creative with his audio editing.)

Thomas Merton - Fri, 14 Apr 2006

5m · Published 14 Apr 15:34
Thomas Merton - "The Sowing of Meanings" - with commentary by Ivan M. Granger. An Easter poem for us today...

Vladimir Solovyov - Tue, 21 Mar 2006

8m · Published 21 Mar 16:25
Vladimir Solovyov - "All in azure today" - with commentary by Ivan M. Granger. Solovyov was a philosopher, poet, literary critic and a mystic with an intense connection to the Divine in the form of the feminine archetype of Sophia or Holy Wisdom.

Vidyapati - Wed, 1 Mar 2006

12m · Published 01 Mar 16:42
Vidyapati - "All my inhibition left me in a flash," - with commentary by Ivan M. Granger. This is a beautiful example of how the soul can yearn for God with such a passion that it can be described in erotic terms.
