Stories for a Living Future—Series 3: Stories of the Heart

In this third podcast series, Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee returns to familiar themes: living at the end of an era, in a time of great dying, and yet holding a thread to a living future—a thread woven in ancient memories as well as visions of a new way to live with the Earth and Her more-than-human  inhabitants. But this series is also more personal, what it means for him as a mystic to grow old in such a darkening landscape, hearing the Earth cry.

These are stories of the heart, words which belong to the depths of my soul as well as to the empty places he has wandered, the visions he has seen, the beauty and sorrow he has come to know. And always a return to what is simple, which sings with the beauty and wonder of our shared existence—the blue heron in the lagoon, feathers sometimes ruffled against the wind, the red-tailed falcon that came to sit on a branch outside his window, his love for the Earth.
