It's hard to deny the fact that the world has become louder. With our cars, planes, phones, music, it's hard to get away from it all. Even I find myself cursing the sky and everyone in it for ruining my silence with their Beoing 787 Dreamliners. Combine that noise with the average day to day hustle and bustle of the city and it's sure to drive anyone mad eventually. What are the negative effects of this noise pollution? In contrast, what are the benefits of silence and stillness? Why is it needed? What has it done for me? Join me in the episode while I discuss all these things.
Side note: It's ironic that this episode contains random hisses and clicks from my microphone. I know it's annoying but please bear with it until I can fix the problem. Thank you.
