Our task is to take this earth so deeply and wholly into ourselves that it will resurrect within our being.

Be Earth Now

"In Rainer Maria Rilkes seminal collection of poetry, The Book of Hours: Love Poems to God, the great twentieth-century poet explores the nature ofand his relationship toGod through divinely received prayers. Nearly twenty-five years ago, Anita Barrows, an award-winning poet and translator, and Joanna Macy, a Buddhist scholar and eco-philosopher, collaborated to translate this collection. Now, on the new album Be Earth Now, Anita and Joanna recite a selection of these poems. Through their potent recitations, they bring the spirit of Rilkes words fully into our time and remind us of the ever-urgent call to love the world into being." { read more }
