Xiaoyao ventures into the Mundus Imaginalis, and finds strangeness, unexpected encounters and … welcome.
“Joyful the moment when we sat in the bower, Thou and I;
In two forms and two faces—with one soul, Thou and I.
The colour of the garden and the song of the birds give the elixir of immortality
The instant we come into the orchard, Thou and I.
This is stranger, that Thou and I, in this corner here …
Are both in one breath in Iraq, and in Khorasan – Thou and I.”
Jalāl al-dīn Rumi
SHOW NOTES:
Xiaoyao Xingzhe, the self-styled carefree pilgrim, has lived and worked all over the world, having crossed the Gobi in a decrepit jeep, lived with a solitary monk in the mountains of Korea, dined with the family of the last emperor of China, and helped police with their enquiries in Amarillo, Texas.
