Episode 1024 “Things Falling Apart”

from Meditations For The Metro Hosted by Meditations For The Metro

Today’s meditation comes from The Book Of Hosea in The Old Testament and from the writings of Pema Chödrön, with music by Stephen Keech. Passage: “Come, let us return unto the Lord. He has torn us to pieces but he will heal us; he has wounded us but he will bandage us.” —Hosea 6:1 Perspective: "Things falling apart is a kind of testing and also a kind of healing. We think that the point is to pass the test or to overcome the problem, but the truth is that things don't really get solved. They come together and they fall apart. Then they come together again and fall apart again. It's just like that. The healing comes from letting there be room for all of this to happen: room for grief, for relief, for misery, for joy." ―Pema Chödrön Music: “Fable” by Stephen Keech Narrator: Ryan Phipps
