This week, Allison and Max talk about two women who are more spirit and legend than flesh and blood. The first, a bodhisattva associated with compassion, her name translates to [The One Who] Perceives the Sounds of the World; the second, both a singular diety and a collection spirits, is venerated to this day by priests and priestesses who practice the divining arts: Guanyin and Mami Wata. /
