Tova explores deep listening on the personal, relational, community, and global levels. Investigating the meaning of her dharma name, MyoCho, Wondrous or Subtle Listening, Tova shares stories that express the compassionate nature of Avalokitesvara, or Kuanyin, Hearer of the Cries of the World. These stories encourage us to experience the entire universe as not separate from ourselves and meet the cries of the world with skillful means.
