1493: Stadium by Heather Tone

from The Slowdown: Poetry & Reflection Daily · host Eliana Benavides

Today’s poem is Stadium by Heather Tone. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Maggie writes… “Meditation on death awareness, called maranasati, is one of the oldest practices in all Buddhist traditions. It may seem morbid to make a practice from contemplating your own death while you’re still alive, but the idea of your death is probably affecting the way you live.” This show is supported by gifts from listeners.
