Poetry As Spiritual Practice

In his inspiring book, Poetry As Spiritual Practice, Robert McDowell challenges our education system to explore creative thinking that includes poetry and spiritual understanding:

"In our schools, grades K through 12, students are not so much educated as trained to perform well on standardized tests. They aren't taught to think for themselves, question, or be curious. They're encouraged to accept what they're told without hesitation." Robert McDowell
