info_outlineEvery year in the summertime, we are greeted by the loud songs of the cicada broods. There's normally about seven different broods at any given time who hatch underground after having lived five years or so underground. For many of the broods, they come up to the surface, they mate, they die.
This year, however, we're also being visited by 'Brood 13' and 'Brood 17', and the sound is deafening.
This meditation is an understanding of these cicada's prayers as a way of reevaluating our own prayer life. Want to watch the video version of this episode? Become a Patreon supporter!
