Martin Palmer, Secretary General of The Alliance of Religions and Conservation reflects on the significance of rivers in religious stories and traditions. Drawing on examples, he considers how rivers are a metaphor for life. They are also about being a part of something greater. They flow into the sea and the sea flows into the ocean. “As such the river is a natural symbol of the soul returning to the Source – God, the Divine whatever name you give it.” Written and narrated by Martin Palmer, Actors: Adie Allen and Susan Jameson One of five illustrated talks by different writers on the theme of the river. Additional sound recordings by Chris Watson Producer: Sarah Blunt First broadcast on ��ѿ��ý Radio 4 in August 2016.
