Episode 467 - How Healing Songs Began

from Living Myth

This episode of Living Myth begins with a Native American story of the origin of healing rituals. In telling the tale Michael Meade emphasizes a remarkable point in the story when knowledge, healing and songs all enter the world at the same time. The songs become central elements in the original healing ritual which brings those that are sick or wounded to the center of the community. Having established the importance of healing songs, Meade introduces an excerpt from Mosaic's recording "A Song is a Road".     Thank you for listening to and supporting Living Myth. You can further support this podcast by becoming a member of Living Myth Premium.
