Once Upon a Time, We Were Little People
It all started in childhood. You were once a tiny person in a magical Land of Giants full of dark and light forces. Our culture calls them parents and guardians, but in the Wizzan School, we call them Giants because they are 'literally' giants to children. Childhood is a realm of wonder, curiosity, magic, and sorcery. It is the domain of horror and beauty, innocence and vulnerability, helplessness and power. The authentic spiritual path is a person’s life. It is their true Inner Temple. Unfortunately, our native inner growth has been arrested by generational, cultural, and religious child abuse and indoctrination. Below are some resources for you to explore:
