The Paradox of the Tree of Life

A talk by Marion Duff, 24th March. “Much has been written about “The Tree of Life”, from Genesis, and Revelations in the Christian Bible, to the Jewish Kabbalah, and the Celtic life of the tree spirits. Today’s explanation of the paradoxical tree of life is experiential, that is, the natural “soul knowing” process we each come to realise as we cleanse the lens of our spiritual blindness. We then find and awaken the intimate connection with the Divine/field, and share in life’s mystery. Albert Einstein said, “If you want to understand the meaning of life watch nature,” so we will begin with the seed in the dark carrying the Divine spark, follow the stages of transformation and learn how what is within battles to come to the light. The paradox of our desires and choices, shapes us to become what we are, whether we have been tempted and resisted the dark, or turned from the light, every path ultimately leads us home.” Marion Duff, registered MBACP accredited Counsellor.
