Mark Nepo: The Endless Practice of Becoming

Mark-Nepo_OMTimesThis summer and fall marks the culmination of several journeys for Mark Nepo, #1 New York Times bestselling author and poet. This fall he is joining Oprah Winfrey’s The Life You Want Weekend tour, which will take him to Auburn Hills, MI; Washington DC; Newark, NJ and Seattle, WA. At the same time, Mark has a new book of spiritual inquiry just published, The Endless Practice: Becoming Who You Were Born to Be, where he illuminates the soul’s work in the world, and the ongoing and timeless journey of awakening to the dynamic wholeness of life in all its messiness and unpredictability.

Mark has taught in the fields of poetry and spirituality for forty years. Called “one of the finest spiritual guides of our time,” he started writing poetry in high school when the first woman he fell in love with broke up with him. Poetry opened an inner dialog where Mark discovered depth and resilience in self-conversation, “I discovered through my pain how to open the self as a portal to everything larger than me.” He found writing a way to engage in a conversation with the universe, but it was his journey through cancer in his thirties that brought him squarely into the life of the spirit.

He has written 15 books and inspired millions of people with his #1 New York Times bestseller The Book of Awakening, a spiritual daybook that draws on his awakening through cancer to offer life lessons from all the spiritual traditions.

“Love the task and work the light.” I’ve done this ten thousand times as the curtain lifted on stage, never thinking to try to live that way after the curtain dropped, in my every day life. It wasn’t until I fought my addiction and won that I realized I was in my own way, and until I put something else in front of me, the life I wanted wouldn’t show up. But the journey ain’t over as Mark’s new book, The Endless Practice, is yet another candle to light our understanding along the spiritual path called Life.” —Steven Tyler
