Book Synopsis The Gospel of Mary Magdalene by : Jean-Yves Leloup

Download or read book The Gospel of Mary Magdalene written by Jean-Yves Leloup. This book was released on 2002-02-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Restores to the forefront of the Christian tradition the importance of the divine feminine • The first complete English-language translation of the original Coptic Gospel of Mary, with line-by-line commentary • Reveals the eminence of the divine feminine in Christian thought • Offers a new perspective on the life of one of the most controversial figures in the Western spiritual tradition Perhaps no figure in biblical scholarship has been the subject of more controversy and debate than Mary Magdalene. Also known as Miriam of Magdala, Mary Magdalene was considered by the apostle John to be the founder of Christianity because she was the first witness to the Resurrection. In most theological studies she has been depicted as a reformed prostitute, the redeemed sinner who exemplifies Christ's mercy. Today's reader can ponder her role in the gospels of Philip, Thomas, Peter, and Bartholomew--the collection of what have come to be known as the Gnostic gospels rejected by the early Christian church. Mary's own gospel is among these, but until now it has remained unknown to the public at large. Orthodox theologian Jean-Yves Leloup's translation of the Gospel of Mary from the Coptic and his thorough and profound commentary on this text are presented here for the first time in English. The gospel text and the spiritual exegesis of Leloup together reveal unique teachings that emphasize the eminence of the divine feminine and an abiding love of nature over the dualistic and ascetic interpretations of Christianity presented elsewhere. What emerges from this important source text and commentary is a renewal of the sacred feminine in the Western spiritual tradition and a new vision for Christian thought and faith throughout the world.

Book Synopsis Mary Magdalene and the Divine Feminine by : Elizabeth Clare Prophet

Download or read book Mary Magdalene and the Divine Feminine written by Elizabeth Clare Prophet. This book was released on 2020-08-17. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What was Jesus’ relationship with Mary Magdalene? What did he teach about the role of women? Is God only male? Mary Magdalene and the Divine Feminine explores these questions and much more as it unfolds Jesus’ liberating teaching on Woman and on the true nature and destiny of the soul—teaching that has been lost for thousands of years. With detailed research and penetrating insight, Elizabeth Clare Prophet shows that Jesus actually broke with the tradition of his time and brought a revolutionary and freeing message for women that was later suppressed. She talks about why early Christian leaders denied Jesus’ message on reverence for Woman and on the inner feminine potential of both man and woman. She also reveals the true relationship of Jesus and Mary Magdalene and why the concept of original sin, which was not part of Jesus’ original teachings, was invented. In these pages, you will also explore the principle and role of the Mother and the Divine Feminine in East and West from ancient times through the teachings of the Hindus, Hebrews, Christians, Gnostics and others. And you will come to see how the story of Mary Magdalene is representative of our own soul’s journey and holds valuable keys for your personal spiritual growth and awakening."

Book excerpt: This book is a radical exploration of the mystical teachings in the Gospel of John. It helps the reader to experience these spiritual truths for themselves, and go beyond the everyday mind, which is dominated by the ego and realize their eternal Being, which Johns Gospel calls Logos. By approaching the teachings in a meditative state, the symbolism contained within the Greek text opens out and comes alive in the present moment. The Gospel is not a historical document; it speaks directly to each person now and the states of consciousness represented in the stories are accessible now. The book contains guided meditations to help bring this to life for the reader. This awakening concerns our relationship with the whole of life. Spiritual consciousness means that we are aware of the sacredness of our connections to each other as fellow human beings, and to the creatures of the natural world. Christ and the Logos contain both masculine and feminine in balance; at this critical time, our well-being and that of our fellow creatures is dependent on this realization. ,
