Landing page captured for the 2026-08-22 issue.

Why it surfaced

This is an unusually deliberate alternative to the feed-and-streak meditation app: one passage arrives each morning, while 24 themes unfold over the year and 25 public-domain works can be read offline. The homepage is unusually concrete about its contents—137 hours of narration, 465 chapter tracks, named translations, and a reader designed for long sittings.
