Ep 163: Boundless Bliss with Kute Blackson
Episode 163: Show Notes
We all have an inner truth that every so often nudges us into directions, whether we are aware of it, or not. We may find, however, that we do not necessarily often listen to or follow those inner nudgings, but as we dive into the story from today’s episode, we see how powerful it can be to trust life and see where it takes you.
In our conversation today, we welcome back Kute Blackson. Kute is a transformational teacher, a sought-after inspirational speaker, and the bestselling author of two books, The Magic of Surrender and You Are The One. Born in Ghana, he had a multicultural upbringing as the child of a Japanese mother and a Ghanaian father.
At the age of 18, Kute left everything he knew behind and followed an inner nudging that sparked a cascade of events leading him to become a spiritual legend. As you tune in to this episode of the Light Watkins Show, you’ll join us on a journey as we talk about the anatomy of a leap of faith, how to follow your heart and inner nudgings, and practical steps and advice about how to start listening to your deeper inner truth and ultimately discover your purpose.

Tweetables:
“At 18, [I] renounced everything, left everything behind, and gave everything up, which was very difficult. My father and I didn’t speak for a few years but I felt as though my soul was calling me to a different path.” — @kuteblackson [0:07:48]
“Sometimes, what your soul nudges you and guides you to do doesn’t always make sense, it isn’t always convenient, isn’t always comfortable, and I felt [a] nudging that was so strong and that is what I chose to follow and left everything behind.” — @kuteblackson [0:08:26]
“Sometimes not getting what you want is grace. Sometimes we have to thank God for the prayers that weren’t answered.” — @kuteblackson [0:18:47]
“As I went through certain inner experiences and realizations, there was just a profound sense of the undeniable oneness of existence and the undeniable oneness of what we are, and from that sense of realization of the oneness of what we are, there was a sense of love that I hadn’t experienced before for humanity and that was interesting.” — @kuteblackson [0:23:42] Longer quote
“The deeper I go in my spiritual path, the less choice I feel that I have. The freer I feel.” — @kuteblackson [0:30:17]
“I think that whenever we’re evolving, that next level of life requires a next level of us and certain ways of being— We can’t take certain ways of being to that next level. Certain things are going to have to be given up, certain things are going to have to be released.” — @kuteblackson [0:31:13] Longer quote
“I think we live in a world of infinitely valid but simultaneously contradictory realities, inherent in the nature of life.” — @kuteblackson [0:35:15]
“The degree to which we’re conditioned is the degree to which we’re not free to choose our response and action, in the moment.” — @kuteblackson [0:39:46]
“Life is a game. Life is an energetic matrix of mirrors that shows you, reflects to you, yourself, and who you are being through the reflection of experiences.” — @kuteblackson [0:41:33]
“Sometimes the fear of the consequences is what blocks our deep intuition, knowing, guidance, and courage to take the leap. Just acknowledge the truth.” — @kuteblackson [0:52:47]
