What does it mean to be a spiritual warrior?

How can we find the courage to be authentic, open-hearted and loving to ourselves and others, even when life's chips are down?

Welcome back to the Awakening Aphrodite Fast Friday, a snippet of inspiration for the end of your week! Today's discussion is focused on Mark Nepo's work, The Book of Awakening: Having the Life You Want by Being Present to the Life You Have⁠. This episode is a sequel to Episode 169, my first time sharing the words of Mark Nepo on contemplating surrender, resilience & the courage of a seed.

Mark Nepo is a philosopher-poet and cancer survivor whose writing offers an escape from the challenges of life in a way that is both profound and clarifying. This spiritual daybook is a summons to reclaim aliveness, liberate the self, take each day one at a time, and savor the beauty offered by life's unfolding. He speaks of spirit and friendship, urging readers to stay vital and in love with this life, no matter the hardships. Encompassing many traditions and voices, Nepo's words offer insight on pain, wonder, and love.

“All Spiritual Warriors have a broken heart. This is because it is only through the break, that the wonders and mysteries of life can enter us.”
