Everlutionary: Healing and Transforming the World

E30 - Sunrays & Moonbeams: The Poetry of Change with Hawah Kasat


Listen Later

Have you been feeling overwhelmed? What do we do with the weight we carry when the world feels heavy and hope feels thin?

In this intimate solo episode of “Everlutionary,” our host Hawah Kasat invites us into a season of transition—one shaped by solitude, silence, and the hallowed grounds of the Appalachia Mountains. Broadcasting from Roots to Sky Sanctuary, he reflects on what it means to slow down and listen differently when everything inside and outside feels in flux.


Moved by the recent I.C.E. raids in the United States, Hawah shares what’s been stirring in his heart, speaking honestly about the danger of silence, and how not naming injustice becomes its own form of violence. He weaves personal reflection with political truth, honoring the grief of these times while also making space for beauty.


The episode closes with his spoken word piece “Sunrays and Moonbeams,” a poem he wrote while staying in a Shaolin monastery while in China. The poem is a stirring reminder that joy is our birthright and that even in moments of uncertainty, love will always find us.
