An Auditory Sighting

Travels in India

A friend of Marc’s and mine is traveling in India: he was in Veranasi on an early morning visit to see morning rituals before the sun rose on the Mother Ganges.  At the breakfast table next to his was a group of Americans.  With “loud voices I couldn’t help but overhear. They were discussing new ways to worship in their churches, so when one of them said of course Marcus Borg was our inspiration I couldn’t help but stare.  Which was noticed.  So then we had a discussion, a couple of them had heard Marcus speak and they wanted me to tell you that Marcus changed their lives.”

So on October 19, 2017 an auditory sighting.  The name of Marcus Borg and his ongoing influence rose above the din, wafting with cardamom and curry smells and mingling with the murmur of distant chants.
