How to read it slowly

  1. Read one passage

    Each passage is short. Read one, then set the book down.

  2. Sit with its question

    Every passage ends with two questions. Let one stay with you for a day before you write. There is no wrong answer.

  3. Write your answer

    Each passage has its own page with a private place to write. It stays on your device, and gathers here.

  4. Hear her voice

    Amal Lana reads each teaching beside the river, in under a minute. Listen.

Questions from readers

I’ve finished the book. What now?
Start at the top of this page: leave a review, read back through your answers, hear her read all thirteen, and pass a card to someone. The book is meant to be lived with, so Daily brings a new line and question every day.
Where do my written answers go?
Nowhere. Answers you write on a passage page are saved only on your own device, and they appear together under Your answers on this page. You can print them or email them to yourself.
I wrote answers on my phone. Can I see them on my computer?
Not automatically, because nothing leaves your device. Open this page on your phone and choose Email them to myself, then you have them anywhere.
Is there a guide for reading on my own?
Yes. The Reader’s Guide gathers all thirteen teachings and questions, with page numbers and room to write.
Where can I find more of her writing?
Her newest writing, readings and practices appear first on The Deep Current, her free Substack channel.
