News at Eleven: [Stephen Levine] hosted a venue in New York City

for poetry readings, and published three books of his own poetry. Then something else called to him. As he recalls, "The same place we meet poetry, we meet each other: the higher level of consciousness we call intuition. The intuition from which poetry is recorded, reported, became very important in connection with healing." This calling to healing led him to work with the dying, relationship as spiritual practice, and living each day as if it were your last. What could be more meaningful--or poetic--than that?
