Love is in the air #40: Maria Alma
b'Love is in the air (Rakkautta ilmassa, Det ligger k\\xe4rlek i luften) is a podcast where Johannes Romppanen sits down with people and talks about love. What is love and how does it appear in our lives? In the seventh of a series of 10 New York based love podcasts, Johannes talks with Maria Alma.\\n\\nLove is in the air #40 - New York 7/10\\n\\nWhen I was planning my trip to New York, I put a message on my facebook wall asking for suggestions on people to meet. Emilia Lahti connected me with Maria Alma - it ended up being a true blessing. She offered me a place to stay and she spread the word - with the results that half of the recorded talks are somehow connected to her. So she kind of became a producer, it was exactly what I needed. Here we sit down at her home one late evening, she speaks about her friendship with Moyo, who is imprisoned and sentenced to death. They became pen pals and they also created an exhibition, \\u201cBuddhas on Death Row\\u201d - showing a series of Buddha portraits made by Moyo. He has an important message: \\u201cI have committed some grave acts in my life and I will never be able to undo them. Yet the very least I can do is to improve myself.\\u201d\\n\\nHere is more information about Maria, Moyo and their project from a post made in 2016: http://www.awakin.org/calls/278/maria-jain/ \\nand also the actual project website: https://www.buddhasondeathrow.com/\\n\\nhttps://onequartmagazine.com/life/10/2018/love-is-in-the-air-maria-alma/\\n\\nPhoto by Johannes Romppanen.\\nSound and mastering by Jyri Pirinen.\\n\\nwww.lovepodcast.fm'
