À propos de cet audio
A poetic treasury of spiritual insight, The Language of the Soul uncovers the original meanings of words to help us remember what it means to be fully alive
For poet and spiritual teacher Mark Nepo, words have always been more than tools for communication—they are vessels of meaning, portals to the sacred, and medicine for the soul. In The Language of the Soul, Nepo explores the deep, often forgotten roots of 228 words from thirty-one languages and traditions, revealing their original, undiluted power to awaken, connect, and heal. Woven with stories from history, mythology, and the author’s own remarkable life journey, this is a rich and contemplative guide to the spiritual essence of language.
Just as rivers and mountains erode over time, so too do the meanings of words. Nepo invites readers to walk beside him along a timeless river of understanding, where ancient expressions are reawakened and everyday language is imbued with depth and resonance. Whether it’s a word like “courage” or “forgive” or a lesser-known gem from Sanskrit, Hebrew, or Chinese, each entry becomes a doorway into timeless wisdom, offering moments of insight, stillness, and transformation.
For seekers, artists, caregivers, and lovers of language, The Language of the Soul is both a spiritual lexicon and a personal companion. With the lyrical clarity that has made him one of our most beloved spiritual voices, Nepo reminds us that words, when opened with care and wonder, can carry us back to ourselves—and forward into the world with greater compassion, clarity, and grace.
