A dialogue with Mark Nepo
Letting current events into our hearts in ways that empower us
In this brief audio clip from Mark Nepo’s dialogue with Beyond Awakening host, Terry Patten, Mark discusses practicing with the shocking violence of the daily news. He suggests there is a way to process and internalize tragedy so that rather than becoming paralyzed and shut down, our compassion is awakened and we are empowered to take action.

Keeping our hearts open in hell
Mahalo for this conversation.Its important to offer..discern skill sets to deal with..be effective..make sense ..take positive action in these great human tragedies. Whether these are acts of god…contrived false flags for control and manipulation…random acts of pure insanity..the players are the same..humans..our brothers and sisters..Those that are affected as observers..victims..perpetrators..and the world at large are force fed mistrust, cruelty, unconsciousness, and no recourse.Weve been and carry a PTSD..a perceptual narrowing and numbing..reduced to a herd mentality.Each person must make their choices and world view before being numbed or made lame.For these reasons these acts need to stop or be suspended for the unreal power they carry in our lives.They do cripple the psyche initially and we are then at the effect of any force that wants to create an agenda.
I was at ground zero in the tsunami of Thailand of 2004.Ive a lot to speak to the breakdown of social structure and that vulnerable shock point.We must not be afraid to turn every stone and analyze the depth of these acts of insanity.
