Connecting in the Shadow of God

Wisdom / Power Retreat

October 17-19, 2025

Free yourself from having to be a “performer” in a focused, slow-burn and sacred cauldron with your peers… Open to Biblical codes, sonic vibrations and orient towards actualizing your divine potential. Activate your genius while communing with the Earth under an open sky, and emerge rested, with clarity and wholesome power.

“As a newly vetted, and re-committed XPR Advisor, I am choosing the PaRaDiSe Mystery School format and here is why. I have been kicking the tires for 5 years, and am now totally seeing how I have been resisting my own Power. The more I walk on the path of Golden XPR, the more I realize that I create my own reality. Yet XPR does more: it gives me the understandings that allow me to make the choice of Peace, moment by moment. This is how I am transcending the fear of being powerful beyond measure as a supernatural being created in the divine image.”

CONNECTING IN THE SHADOW OF GOD
WISDOM/POWER – RETREAT ANNOUNCEMENT

Hi everyone, we’re excited to let you know about special 2-Day retreat – Connecting in the Shadow of God. It is scheduled for October 17th – 19th at a peaceful hill country retreat center 30 minutes west of Austin, TX.

The big WHYS of Connecting in the Shadow of God:

  • To see ourselves as part of a community entrained and maybe even compelled to free the light of the deepest darkest genius of us.
  • To let go of our allegiance to the 3D world and find the EXIT door out of and “Scare City” and its hell of separation.
  • To hear the wisdom of our Shadow Self and deepen our ability to weather dark emotions with an open heart.
  • To choose to know the Truth and dare stay in the womb of the tomb long enough to stop judging and open the QKosmic eye of Providence.
  • To abide in surrendered leadership and know such joy that nothing more is desired since we can feel that all wishes are already granted.
  • To keep on renewing THE decision to make the unconscious conscious, so as to end our addiction to suffering and begin to vibrate with the sense of enough.

All the info is below including how to get signed up. If you have any questions just let us know.  

Here are the details…

Presenters

Mahalene Louis and Michael Wolf have worked together for 17 years to reveal, build and launch a mystery school which offers numerous published books, classes, and coaching sessions based on the ancient and futuristic meta-language of the QKabbalah www.GoldenXPR.com  | www.emPoweringNOW.com

Mahalene Louis is a true artist and an innate linguist. She emigrated from France to the US in her mid-twenties, not speaking a word of English. Being a communicator at heart, she started painting. Her surprising gifts collided with an intense prayer for healing: “one day,” she said when 5 years old, “I’ll write a book. There’ll be Hebrew in it, and it will create world peace.” It took writing hundreds of books (forty years of a relentless wax-on, wax-off process) to reveal The LOVE that has No Opposite – an introduction to a path by which to restore health in ALL levels of communication.

Michael Wolf is the CEO and co-founder of emPowering NOW LLC.  He grew up on a ranch in Texas, earned his BBA in Marketing from Texas A&M before enjoying consistent success as an enterprise sales executive at leading technology firms including Xerox, PTC, i2, Vignette and IBM. After a near death experience, his focus shifted from external success to the journey within. He took the initial leap as a life-coach and hands-on energy healer as he wrote the business plan for emPowering NOW LLC. This act of faith led to his meeting Maha and partnering with her to receive, test and bring forth the mystery school and path of mysticism known as Golden XPR and the new book entitled The Code of Opposites.

Daniel Maldonado has assembled an offering based on the integration of 12-step work, journey of the s/hero and newly, the QKabbalah of Golden XPR. More info: www.interventionem.com
