2012: Catastrophe or Opportunity? – An Indigenous Perspective
Whether you're heeding the Mayan prophecies of cataclysmic change in 2012 or witnessing the upheavals of climate change, seismic tectonic shifts, the Arab Spring, and worldwide economic recession, you may be wondering what's happening to our planet.
How can we prepare for fundamental change and help to create a constructive revolution rather than a disaster?
Glenn Leisching, an initiated elder of the West African Dagara tribe, offers solutions based on ancient teachings about our relationshipswith nature and our familial ancestral heritage . A friend and ally of shaman Malidoma Somé and other indigenous African wisdom keepers,Glenn has been to Africa three times in the past year, bringing back powerful insights from his visits with respected medicine men and women.
Glenn is available to give talks to the public, emphasizing empowering yet practical steps we can take as individuals to harness and direct this energy of change.
He will address such concepts as:
- a new yet ancient paradigm for envisaging a new society
- tools for finding each person's life purpose, essential to the flourishing of our communities
- deepening community ties to a level almost unknown in the West
- honoring the seen and the unseen worlds, and how this practice enlarges our understanding and intimacy within our lives
- participating in the truth of nature's unfolding as our birthright
- simple everyday acts for expanding personal power and insight
