When international best-selling poet Iain S. Thomas’ mother passed away, he struggled to find a way to talk to his young children about the death of their grandmother. He needed answers to questions he didn’t have. He turned to the Bible, Tao Te Ching, to the poetry of Rumi and Sappho, to modern-day mystics. As he did this he thought, “What if I could ’talk’ to these spiritual works and ask it questions? Questions like ‘Why do people die?’ ‘How can I be happier?’ ‘What is the meaning of life?’" https://iainsthomas.com
