This week, stories about connections transcending through our mortal  plane, from the spirit world to our ancestral past.  

To start us off, host Mads takes us to Colombo, Sri Lanka, where her grandmother seeks to impart the wisdom of Hindu astrology.

Ancestral Echoes 

In our second story, Xueyi reconnects to the tradition of ancestor worship that  her family has long upheld. She connects to this on a meaningful level during one of their culture's traditional Spring Festivals.

This story was produced/narrated by Xueyi Zhang and features Shuang  Zhang Shuang, Xueyi Xuejian Xuejian, and Zhengying Zou.  

Mid-autumn Mooncakes 

In our third story, Elieen experiences an incredible connection through food to the people of  her culture and their kin. 

Produced by Eileen Chong. This story originally aired on the FBi radio fiction program,  Or It Didn't Happen.
