Play Cosmology), is a whimsical philosophical investigation and prayerbook to “divine play” – defined as joyful listening and responding to the unknown without craving or aversion. When we are able to distance ourselves from the egoic rush felt in most popular games and sports, then, divine play finds us, in the soft shaking of leaves on branches, in the emotions felt in our bodies as we pass through our busy days, in the beautiful conversations that ensue with others, in the vibrant dance of music, in the shared resonance of our moving bodies as we tumble against each other. What kind of listening and responding to the unknown will bring you to your deepest and highest joy? What divine game will you play? This is one of the essential questions of life. The God of Play is asking it of you.https://www.blurb.com/b/11140542-cosmologia-ludica Yoga Kids Adventure Tumble Media Come with us and step into a yoga adventure!All you need is your ears, your imagination, and a safe place to move.Yoga Kids Adventure is the first-ever yoga podcast made for kids!
