i wonder if in some way, that is sort of the surface level manifestation of a desire for permanence, a desire to be immortal. And we get smacked down pretty quickly whenn wel go too far. With of us speaking from personal experience, i'm sure oliver li the control thing nowh, i mean, it is such a sustained impulse. That's sing way of looking at it, because it really, it honors and exalts the process of seeing, process of starting from a place of openness and emptiness.
There’s something about the sound of Mark Nepo’s voice that just puts me at ease. He’s been immersed in a path of spiritual inquiry for more than forty years, taught all over the world, authored more than twenty books, including the #1 New York Times bestseller The Book of Awakening, More Together Than Alone and others. His books have been translated into more than twenty languages and in 2014, Mark traveled the country with Oprah Winfrey on her sold-out The Life You Want Tour and has appeared several times on her Super Soul Sunday program.
The last time I sat down with Mark, we caught up on life, then dove into his decades-long inquiry around how we are wired to live in community, what happens when the bonds that connect us fail and how to rediscover community at a time when we seem more divided than ever. This conversation was actually recorded before the year we’ve all just been through, but it is more relevant and more needed than ever before.
