From Darkness, Light always emerges … with Scott Alexander King
I’ve always said that ‘knowledge is power’, and that knowledge is best gained through life experience rather than through the study of books. Some people view the word power in a derogatory way, erroneously assuming it refers to rules and restrictions used and abused by those in positions of authority and control. In my world though, the word power refers to the ability to bring about positive change in our life and the lives of others by tapping into the wisdom gleaned over a lifetime of both positive and negative experience. And if the notion of ‘good’ knowledge being gained from negative experience confuses you, remember that even during the darkest nights of the soul, the pure light of realisation and awareness eventually breaks through, shining brightly to reveal the lessons offered (and hopefully learned) during those testing times. Like the dawn of a new day and the sun’s luminous rays that reach out as if banishing the darkness of the night before, it’s good to remember that light cannot exist without darkness, and darkness cannot exist without the light, and that from the darkness, light always emerges, even if – at times – it seems to take forever to do so.
During this workshop, Scott will explain:
- How feeling nervous or self-conscious, suffering from depression and embracing your ego are all sacred steps that need to be honoured on YOUR JOURNEY TO SUCCESS.
- How Scott became the ultimate alchemist, turning SH*T into SUNSHINE!
- What Life Purpose is, and how you know you’re already on your way to living it;
- Why some things are KNOWN TO BE UNKNOWABLE, and why – even when you feel lost, forsaken and alone, Great Spirit is always watching;
- What it means to trust that ‘Spirit Never Makes Mistakes’;
- How life is like a giant jigsaw puzzle, and why it sometimes seems to take ages for us to find all the pieces;
- How to tap into the magic of the Natural World by offering prayers and offerings to the Ancestors and Spirits of the Land
- And much more …
