I keep coming back to this interview. Ten years ago when I first heard it I just felt Mary's words to be so enchanting in the most intimate and familiar way. I still feel the same... Poetry has the quality of a spell, she said, and I cannot think of a better way to start understanding it. Thank you for keeping this beautiful conversation on line for us to enjoy it.
As always, just so meditative, taking one to a place of zen- an intuitive understanding and acknowledgement which resonates in the depths of the soul, without thought, just a peaceful knowing. Nourishment.
I believe that what we call UNDERSTANDING is a form of compassion but it's not as deep as compassion itself, because understanding involves only a mental process whereas compassion embraces and bridges the understanding of the mind with the wisdom of the heart.

Hi Krista Thank you so much for posting. I love Marie, she touches my soul.
Compassion is not the ultimate virtue.
What we hunger for is UNDERSTANDING.
Understanding encompasses all other virtues

This is so informative and enjoyable.
Wonderful.

So excellent. Did the poetry projection project ever take off?
For some reason the audio portion of this video is no longer working.
Working now!
