In this episode, Jack mindfully explores:
*How art, beauty, music and poetry uplift the world to the sacred
*Rumi’s poem, Tending Two Shops
*Letting go of fear, opening into freedom
*Poetry not as a denial of life’s struggles, but as a gracious way through
*Being at home with oneself
*Poetry from Siddhartha Buddha, Thich Nhat Hanh, Rumi, and more
*Telling the truth, becoming nobody, and walking the path
*Meditation and working with our ‘inner mob’ of voices
*Relating to the ‘zoo’ of our lives with meditation
*The three dimensions of Rumi’s spiritual poetry
*Saying ‘yes’ to this too, even to what’s difficult
*Walking this life and path in humbleness

“Poetry and beauty are not a denial of the sorrows of the world, but a grace somehow that holds and understands them—the irony and the mixture of love and terror that make up life.” – Jack Kornfield
