I highly recommend you get Teddy Macker’s book This World and support the work that he is doing as a cultivator – our own attention to the world, and of an orchard, outside Ojai, California.

“The word catastrophe comes from ancient Greek drama, which always features a chorus – a group of actors who would move across the stage in between acts, singing, interpreting the play for the audience, in an arc across the stage called a strophe. A catastrophe literally means an over-turning—which, by the way, is the way soil is enriched, and compost becomes fertilizer. We have to be turned.”

— Nicole Meline, Meditation 9
