    Thanks for discussing the love, peace, and beauty of these persecuted people. It serves to emphasize the evil of the Catholic intentions.

    This was a great interview full of good accurate and interesting information on the Cathars. I am interested in there relationship to the Nazarene's and Coptic Christians.
    There is a Ley Line I have discovered that runs from Amman Jordan to a neolithic city near Stone Henge, It runs exactly through Mt. Carmel in Israel and the now submerged neolithic site Atlit Yam near Mt. Carmel which was a large stone site used to predict the movement of the Sun , Moon and Stars, much like Stone Henge. The Ley line continues North through the Bosnian Pyramid of the Sun making its way through several sacred sites in France near where Cathars lived. I believe the Cathars understood ley lines and when you look at the etymology of Coptic, Gnostic and Celtic the ley line ties these traditions together. I also have been thinking about the similarity between Cathy the Latin word for China and Cathar.
    Ley lines are places where Heaven and Earth touch this would in my opinion influence the area Cathars would have chosen to live. I should mention that Tesla's birth place is very near the Ley Line line as is the location of WWI Christmas soccer game between the Allies and the Germans. For those not familiar with Mt. Carmel it is the location of the School of the Prophets seven miles from Nazareth and where Jesus lived and was educated. It is my belief that advanced souls have been born and reborn on or near this ley line for many thousands of years and the Cathars knew much more about this than we have yet discovered. We are currently looking for evidence that Maria Madalena visited the area near the Bosnian Pyramids.

    I'm reading a wonderful book at the moment that researches Cathar thought in Dante's Divine Comedy. The title is Liberta Va Cercando, written by Maria Soresina. The title comes from Virgil's explanation of Dante's presence in Purgatory to Cato, who would have understood the importance of freedom more than anyone. The book is only published in Italian so I'm translating it into English for whoever might have an interest in it. It's on UA-cam under the name He Goes In Search Of Freedom.

    If you pull it back to the Greek alphabet alpha beta GAMMA delta where the G was replaced by the C when the Latins A B C D took over a Cathar is a Gatherer .. reminds me of 6 day man the Hunters and The Gatherers ! The meat eaters and the vegetarians the gatherers .. not one group but two different peoples ... seems the hunters have been hunting the gatherers ever since ! But were back ! and we Cathars are gathering on UA-cam ! Thanks for the video!

    I have relatives that are in the Catholic Clergy. The woman are slaves nun=none. The whole ecomomy
    is based on this slave labor. They work 90 hour/weeks and have a vow of poverty. They did not want
    equality of the sexes and the ablitity to commune with God without going to a male priest who did not work.
    Priest live a much affluent life.

    The Laurel has blossomed and turned green after 700 years. The Cathars do exist again. You can look at cathar.org. There is also a new community forming in Kansas City, Kansas. The first in America. This man does understand who the Cathars are and the history.

    Catharism grew out of the Church of Love that Mary Magdalene brought to France after the crucifixion. Their practices are almost identical to the order of the Essenes (Nazareans) from which both Jesus and Mary came.

There's nothing new under the Sun .Same things the Cathars dealt with we are dealing with to this day i guess we don't learn from our history books know do we. Like he said there is very little record of the Cathars weather what he is saying is fact or not that's up to the viewer to decide he sound's genuine to me the Cathars always interest me always will

      Yes, all over the world, but with different 'labels', in small groups, organisations. One of the most available is known as Siddha Yoga, which is an authentic path to enlightenment, based on the understandings of Advaita Vedanta (non-dualism) and Kashmir Shaivism. Yes, Eastern Mysticism, Sheila!.
      It shares a remarkable number of features overlapping with those of Catharism, self-enquiry, reflection and contemplation, meditation, healing, chanting. In Siddha Yoga, the practices of Shaktipat Diksha and the Consolamentum, also Darshan and the Melioramentum, seem to be absolute equivalents. So is the aim,- in the one it was to become 'perfected', a bonhomme- a good man or woman. In the other it is to become established in the full awareness of the (Higher) Self. The intended outcome? The same, enlightenment or Siddhahood, with all that implies for oneself and all humanity.
      Have a good browse around www.siddhayoga.org; it could change your life, - it certainly changed mine, and is still.
