Love Heals: A Talk at the Integral Yoga Institute in San Francisco

Michael talks about the healing power of love, the different fates of romantic love and friendship, the question of whether the universe is a living creative force, and the play of archetypes in love. He reads love poems from Rilke, Rumi, Hafiz, Mary Oliver, and others.
