@Bennett Dylan Thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm in the hacking process atm. Takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.

Spiritually speaking (gender aside), matriarchal wisdom can also begin with a fundamental understanding of the cyclical nature of reality (God). Represented by the snake in many creation myths, the living cycle has a trinity of a beginning (head), a middle and end (tail). As above so below, the sexes were created in the image of God's cyclical nature where Mother is the head and opening to all beginnings and Father holds the tail to all endings (through which the sowing of seeds allow for the next great matriarchal rebirth).The joining of the two (symbolized by the Ouroborus or the marriage ring) is the sacred union needed in assuring the creation and continuation of new life cycles. To speak of the present day God as "Our Father" is simply an admission to our collective positioning within the bigger cycle. As all mothers have direct experience with the creator quality of birthing, so is the direct experience of rebirthing the divinity within (baptism) belong to that which is spiritually matriarchal. (John 3, verse 3-8). Sekhmet statues (ancient Egyptian) carry most of their weight in symbolic memory of what was a mother culture dedicated to the direct experience of baptism. As the leg shaped hairlocks extend from maternal breasts to the womb of rebirth, the lioness's head proportions are such that they highlight the bust of a second animal figure. The Lioness's ears as eyes and eyes as nose (nostrils) brings to life the figure of a reptile. 'Neath the halo headress of the solar egg, the lioness's egg fertilization process being internal (Set) and the reptile's egg fertilization process being external (Setting), such being key components to the safety of entering the trans-egoic or "born again" state. The life threatening fear associated with the predatory nature of a lion and/or crocodile encounter are reflective of the intense ego death experiences associated with the transpersonal awakening process. In spiritually matriarchal times, illumination could be seen as wearing the false beard (ancient Egyptian funerary ego death mask) as the high state of cyclical self knowing; high cyclical awareness of both our upper matriarchal half and our lower (later) patriarchal half (compared with a mini lower body replica, an "as above so below" tail end beard extension); in full recognition of her civilizational Underworld; her inevitable cyclical destiny. The male pharaoh wears his beard tapered in reverse, indicating a pointing upwards towards the patriarchal head, divine representative of God's tail end cycle. Mary's anointing and wiping of Jesus's feet with her hair can then be seen as "Head to tail" (toe) imagery as she descends her matriarchal head to his patriarchal feet, thus reenacting the high understanding of the divine cyclical process. (John 12, verse 3) To carry the Ankh (now the female symbol ♀️) was perhaps to symbolically carry that upper and lower understanding. As the upper matriarchal womb symbolised the fertile birthing of civilization, below, the now Christian cross is carried to place emphasis on the lower (later) "End Times" Father principle of the great cycle. Ganesha, the elephant headed Hindu diety, displays a cyclical head to trunk symbolism and points to the Mother head of his matriarchal elephant society. Ganesha (like the elephant) wears God's cyclical nature on his face. A whole temple was dedicated to the ancient Egyptian goddess Hathor, who is the matriarchal "Uterus" personified. ua-cam.com/video/J0m0zJSEFK0/v-deo.html "See all women as mothers, serve them as your mother. when you see the entire world as the mother, the ego falls away. See everything as Mother and you will know God." - Neem Karoli Baba
A glass can only spill what it contains. I try to keep that in mind when reading the bitter, frozen comments. Not a lot of fruit off some of these trees, thats for sure.
I am familiar with Dr. Cynthia from her writing in the daily reflection if Fr. Richard Rohr and the Center for Action and Contemplation. I find the points she puts forth intriguing. I wonder if she puts more focus on the canonical gospels in her book. I am unsure of my opinion on the gospel of Thomas and the gospel of mary.
Good folks. / The terms male & female speak to our physical gender. The inner union of our soul (woman, wife) to our spirit (man, husband) is the birthing of the Manchild - entering into oneness with Christ....coming to the fullness of the knowledge (intimacy/oneness) of Christ.
Things are being "thrown" into1 the story all the time, even to this today. The Roman Catholics made the best religion, ever. No complaints. Patriarchy is best!
Every Saint has a past and every sinner has a future , whether or not , it was accurate , it applies to this Mary. It has to be taken as part of our contextual human sinfulness. But let's look at what " grace " and faithfulness she was given and had. Jesus also wrote in the dirt about some men. She showed him some kindness and he her.
What the mediators dont want any body to know, is that there is no need of any mediation, and that means a very lucrative business to go out of the market. Priesthood can lost all of their privileges if people realize they dont need them as mediators. Actually, they difficult the acces.
Mary Magdalene was not at the Cross supporting Jesus. Like everyone else, Jesus was forsaken by man, that includes Mary Magdalene. In Mark 16 the women who went out to the tomb to anoint Jesus dead body, included Mary Magdalene, and found instead a young man dressed in dazzling white who told them that Jesus had been raised and that they would see him, just as he had said, down at Galilee, and they should go and tell Peter and the others, but the women were filled with trembling and fear and fled the tomb and said nothing to no one, because they were afraid… End of story. Mark is the Góspel and the only book in the New Testament to call itself the Góspel. Paul says that if you join yourself to a prostitute that you become one with her. Therefore, sex is oneness between a man and a woman.
'done' ?? Like on the Discovery Channel? You are missing the point here. Not only was it the greatest love story ever, but it also addressed the male and female sacred Christ consciousness that we are all heir to. If we can get past the banal view of 'jesus may have done mary'. Keep waking up to your own internal sacred male Christ consciousness, it is the cure for toxic masculinity and the path of being able to hold the wholeness, Holiness of the sacred female and sacred male Christ consciousness.
SEVEN DEMONS In the Gospels Matthew Mark Luke John it says repeatedly that she had 7 demons removed, so she must have been a terrible sinner with many evil things inside her. In Luke it says clearly that she was a prostitute, a woman of the city that shouldn't be touched .... neither Jesus nor MM refuted that. Instead Jesus told the parable at how even great sins could be forgiven and that the forgiven sinner would be eternally grateful which MM was. I have zero idea what Cynthia B. is talking about it is very clear in the gospels. In another passage MM was introduced to the Jesus as an adulterous by the Pharsiees. How much clearer can it get ? I don't think Cynthia really understands Christianity, she wants to be told you are very nice as you are, rather than you need Jesus to clean your sins. MM was also appaently so full of demons she was half mad. After MM was cleanses of sins she may have become an important disciple. Important because she was cleanses by the Lord. This is the whole point of Christianity with Cynthia B doesn't seem to realise, she seems to be a social justice warrior instead of a Christian.
The teaching of Mary as a prostitute came 500 years after the 1st century, in a sermon by Pope Gregory the Great. As for Mary’s demons, having seven healings could be seen as being fully healed and perfected in Hebrew thought. You say “Cynthia doesn’t want to talk about Jesus cleaning your sins” yet are offended that one who was so cleansed may be a Christian? Consider keeping an open mind.
Mr./Mrs. Rideforever Do jou realisme that every human beiing has many (often secret!) demons inside their minds and bodys!? Including yourself ! ! ! But Jesus forgives and heals! The New Testement has banned out the Holy Bond and Love between man & woman ergo Jezus & Mary with disastrous consequences ! Happy with Celibat !! Pffff
“It says clearly she was a prostitute”. No, far from that. John identifies Mary of Bethany and Luke "a woman in that town who lived a sinful life" - usually taken to mean a prostitute, but even that is not concrete - Matthew and Mark just say "a woman". At no point is ‘Mary Magdalene’ and ‘prostitute’ in the same sentence, paragraph or chapter!
🌅Thank You both for Unveiling Divine Vision of What The Spiritual Truth lS🙏
Powerful truth!! 💚
She is a scholar as well as an authentic 'spiritual' presence... I love all she writes..Get her newest book on the Holy Trinity

two become one could also mean the individuation of the inner male.female aspects of each human being...
There is no doubt that a woman would 'get' Jesus more so than a man - in those times or now. And men got us the Christian Churches.
Hi Patricia. Just so you know, when I went to watch the full 1 hour episode, the link did not work. Great conversation!
A glass can only spill what it contains. I try to keep that in mind when reading the bitter, frozen comments. Not a lot of fruit off some of these trees, thats for sure.
Thank you for this important correction.
Hallelujah:-)

Krishna consciousness is within!
Don't forget the buddha & christ consciousness
I believe these three are in some way connected

So you are changing The gospel
Many cults were celibate in those days and I never heard that Jesus got power because he was celibate but because he IS GOD THE SON.
For goodness sake push it. She was in love with Hesus and his wife!

Apostle to the apostles only means MM was the one who told them Christ was risen.

wow - so jesus may have done mary magdallen. Thankyou to Ms bourgealt for enlightening us after 2000 years of darkness and ignorance.
There is no ground for your affirmation and no praise for the presumptuous author.
