Mary Magdalene and Jesus Books

Introduction

Jesus did not die for our sins – The true meaning of the crucifixion – Mary Magdalene has always been Jesus’ partner – Mary states clearly that she did not conceive her child Jesus as a virgin and that sexuality is sacred – Mankind carries the trinity of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit in itself and man is Divine.

The amazing book you are now holding contains these and many more controversial Revelations of Mary Magdalene, Jesus and Mary. ‘The Divinity of Mankind’ comprises many new teachings of the spiritual masters; not only for Christians but for every person on Earth. It builds a bridge between the Christian body of thought, other spiritual movements and New Age ideas.

The 25 Revelations are so innovative that you will need time to give them a place in your head and heart. For instance, Mary Magdalene explains her special role for mankind. Mary states that Jesus was conceived through physical contact between Joseph and herself and that there is no such thing as the ‘holy virgin’. Jesus divulges that sins do not exist in his view. They also state that every person chooses his or her own life and thus his or her own parents prior to conception and that the human soul incarnates regularly on Earth. They also explain what happens to the soul when the body dies.

‘The Divinity of Mankind’ is not only a book that provides exclusive insights, it is also an exercise and ‘feel’ book. Through the exercises and prayers you can ‘sense’ or ‘feel’ a clearer picture of yourself in order to connect with the spiritual world and thus create an energy of the heart that substantiates your own Divine nature and opens your heart in order to become a more loving person for yourself, for your fellow man and for the world.

How to use this book

Revelation 1 – The commitment of the spiritual masters

The spiritual masters communicate their responsibility for Earth on an intergalactic level in collaboration with mankind. Every individual is jointly responsible for activating the Divine spark on Earth. Energetic forms of consciousness are a part of this process. The effect of the crucifixion of Jesus on Earth’s aura. List of questions of the spiritual masters for getting people into a personal spiritual process to help them connect more easily with each other.

Revelation 2 – A choice for spiritual freedom

Mary Magdalene, Jesus and Mary talk about the Divine team of mankind’s spiritual helpers. Man’s choice between spiritual freedom and conditioning. The need dictated by one’s ego to be unique isolates man, removing this need unifies man. Exercises with regard to the purpose of going through experiences during life on Earth.

Revelation 3 – Interaction with the Cosmos

Mary provides insight into mankind’s connection with the Cosmos. The manner in which man functions influences how the Cosmos functions and vice versa. Only when people bring personal and collective interests into balance and focus on love, care and compassion, are they able to make contact with extraterrestrial forms of consciousness. Prayer to experience Divinity in all forms of life.

Revelation 4 – Responsibility for own Divinity

Mankind’s attention is drawn to the fact that it must assume responsibility for its own Divinity. People can become aware that they are the creators of their own reality. Jesus explains that we are all a trinity: every person is both father (creator), son (creation) and Holy Spirit (creative power). To make contact with the spiritual world, people are invited to pray. But what is a prayer? Mary Magdalene, Jesus and Mary provide essential prayers to invoke them. Mary explains in detail the significance of the prayer addressed to her.

Revelation 5 – Transformation of the victim/offender consciousness

Mary requests people’s attention for the victim/offender consciousness and makes suggestions as to transformation. She makes herself available as a representative of compassion and as a spiritual guide in the individual transformation process whenever people pray for this. Exercise with respect to man’s relationship with his or her personal ambitions and the impact of ambitions on everyone’s lives.

Revelation 6 – Human life is like maintaining a garden

Mary Magdalene, Jesus and Mary draw people’s attention to the fact that they should lead a life of awareness. They compare giving life content with maintaining a garden. Modern man has little thought for the inner self. People’s ability to penetrate their inner self in order to make contact with the spiritual aspect of themselves is an essential part of life. Exercise to become aware of shifting attention and its effects.

Revelation 7 – The five stages of human consciousness development

Mary Magdalene, Jesus and Mary draw man’s attention to the five development stages in becoming aware of one’s inner self. Exercises to help one recognise one’s own stage of development.

Revelation 8 – Mary Magdalene explains who and what is God

Mary Magdalene presents herself from the spiritual world and tells what Jesus and Mary mean to her and what the reasons are for the publication of this book. Mary Magdalene explains what God is and provides the ‘I am God’ exercises and a prayer to let people experience their Divine essence and accept it into their heart.

Revelation 9 – Experience the Divine in the world

Mary provides exercises for man to experience the Divine in the world. The main cause of pain in people is the insufficient extent to which they experience the Divine in themselves and in the world. It is mainly thoughts, opinions and convictions that block out the Divine. To experience God in the world, mankind must let go of its old assumptions and revere the world.

Revelation 10 – Deep longing for unity

Man longs most for unity. Thoughts, convictions and opinions create an involuntary illusion about the world and about ourselves. Jesus gives exercises to eliminate man’s feeling of being cut off from the rest of the world. “Love is the connective force that makes us aware of the unity between ourselves and the world.”

Revelation 11 – The essence of woman and man

Mary about Mary as a symbol of mother, wife and sister, about the essence of woman and man and the true nature of their interaction, about her relationship with Joseph as an example for mankind. About the true meaning of the ‘Immaculate Conception’ and the role of the Holy Spirit. To conceive Jesus, Mary and Joseph did indeed have physical contact.

Revelation 12 – The holy meaning of giving and receiving

Mary Magdalene about the sacred meaning of menstruation, about men ‘giving’ and women ‘receiving’ as a crucial element in their relationship, about her loving partnership with Jesus that they want to reveal to the world and the significance that the two of them can have as a couple for every man and woman. Exercise to call up Mary Magdalene and Jesus in your heart.

Revelation 13 – The healing of the body of woman and man

Mary Magdalene gives exercises and prayers for the healing of the woman, for the healing of the emotional and mental body, for the healing of the relationship of the man with his physical body and for the restoration of the relationship with people with whom you have a negative connection.

Revelation 14 – Dealing with fear

Mary’s exercises for solving fears

Revelation 15 – The initiation of mankind on Earth

Mary Magdalene and Jesus about the road to the consecration of man on Earth. The first three of ten steps with accompanying exercises for breaking out of the illusion of being isolated, for putting the ego into perspective and for restoring the love for oneself.

Revelation 16 - The road of emptiness and light

Mary Magdalene and Jesus discuss the next two steps on the road to the consecration of man on Earth. About ‘creating room, emptiness and silence’ to come in contact with one’s inner self and ‘the road of light’ with exercises to make people aware of their free will, enable them to make more conscious choices and to focus their attention in order to improve their consciousness. Someone's degree of consciousness determines the extent to which one exercises one’s free will.

Revelation 17 – The road of freedom, heart opening , life and dead

Mary Magdalene and Jesus discuss the next three steps on the road to the consecration of man on Earth. About a different view of the function of death as a road to freedom and about opening the heart. By opening the heart, both at an individual and a collective level, Earth becomes a source of enrichment for the Cosmos. The time is ripe for the big transformation, the transformation occurs in the heart. Exercises: ‘Each day of your life is a movie’, ‘We love the Earth’ and ‘Beliefs about death’.

Revelation 18 – The road of dying

Mary Magdalene and Jesus discuss the ninth step on the road to the consecration of man on Earth. On preparing for death and the assistance of the spiritual world in this preparation, the transformation of consciousness on the way through the tunnel to the immaterial world and the development process that takes place there. Exercise to experience the process of dying.

Revelation 19 – The road of reincarnation

Mary Magdalene and Jesus discuss the tenth step on the road to the consecration of man on Earth. Which process does the soul go through before it reincarnates in the material world? The soul can choose one of three lives. The soul chooses its new parents and brings about a lifelong commitment of the heart. Exercise to become conscious of your own conception. Every child is wanted.

Revelation 20 – The true meaning of the crucifixion

Jesus explains the true meaning of the crucifixion and how he was called to it. He did not die for our sins. Being nailed to the cross was a consecration for the human heart at a level that was as yet unknown to mankind. And the Earth was initiated into a higher state of consciousness that was and is unique in its own history and that of the entire Cosmos. Prayer and exercises to awaken the consciousness of Christ in the heart.

Revelation 21 – Embracing the Earth as a foundation for the Christ Project

In the course of the years to come, more and more people will move out of the cities in pursuit of peace and quiet and the nature of the countryside; this to escape from the head and into the heart. The spiritual masters unfold their plans for new residential and working communities called the ‘Christ Project’. The plans are centred on spiritual values and an environmentally friendly economy. Exercise for the integration of all people and other forms of consciousness to create a network of love and light.

Revelation 22 - Spiritual movements complement each other

The spiritual masters emphasise the personal transformation of the people who wish to participate in the Christ Project and the development of their consciousness. They explain that the various religions actually complement each other and will all have a place in the new community. “Do you think that Mohammed, Jesus, Buddha and Moses could be at variance with each other?” Exercise to accept other religions.

Revelation 23 - Basics of the Christ Project

The spiritual masters emphasise the importance of improved interaction between the ‘highest’ and ‘lowest’ chakras in our bodies in order to actually be able to experience the power of love and the Divine. Basic principles for participating in the Christ Project are formulated. Exercise to put negative opinions into perspective.

Revelation 24 - The relationship of parent and child

Mary and Jesus compare the parent/child relationship with the relationship between the spiritual masters and mankind. If a parent fosters his or her inner child, that parent is also better able to give his or her child love and acknowledge that child as an individual soul. Mankind has achieved increased consciousness and reveals itself more and more as a partner of the spiritual masters. Exercise to make contact with your inner child and to accept it.

Revelation 25 - The relationship between spiritual masters and humanity

Mary and Jesus tell about the special relationship between the spiritual masters and mankind. The spiritual masters occasionally wonder whether they should ‘save’ people from the situations in life that they have created themselves or whether they should let them experience them to the full from the point of view of the evolutionary process. The answer is provided by the Divine plan. It is time for people to take responsibility for what they create and learn to make other choices. Mankind and the masters can then be partners. Exercise as an aid for consciously deciding whether or not you want to be a victim in this life.

Foreword by the authors

Dear Readers

We hadn’t been together for very long when we were ‘visited’ by the spiritual masters in the year 2000. The most suitable and quiet moment for contact turned out to be during prayers before our hot meal at noon. After recovering from our initial surprise, the first messages came through to Gabriela from Mary Magdalene, Jesus and Mary. This was a very special, wondrous and poignant moment. They asked explicitly whether we would make ourselves available for passing on a book that was to bear the title “The Divinity of Mankind – Revelations of Mary Magdalene, Jesus and Mary”.

We started on the ‘conveyance sessions’ in our study at the end of August 2000 after an enervating visit to Jerusalem during the summer of that same year, just prior to the serious clashes between the Palestinians and the Jews. We were most honoured. With candles lit and pictures of Jesus and Mary around us, Gabriela ‘received’ the first Revelations. She voiced them and Reint recorded what ‘came through’ on his personal computer. We both opened ourselves to this special contact. We also communicated back and forth on a regular basis whenever we explicitly requested, and received, additional information and clarification from the masters (both male and female) who said that they belonged to the Brother- and Sisterhood of Love and Light. Because we were often too busy with our day-to-day affairs, the information came through at intervals over a period of two years. It was simply a matter of planning time in our schedules, saying an opening prayer and performing a ritual at the agreed time to make ourselves as available as possible, and Mary, Jesus and/or Mary Magdalene tuned into us to make contact and convey their knowledge.

It sounds simple, but it was not always easy, especially in the beginning. The innovative messages we were permitted to receive for mankind often ‘came through’ so passionately that we sometimes had to break off after only fifteen minutes because we were so ‘moved’. In point of fact, we both found ourselves in a radical transformation process in which we were confronted with our convictions and assumptions and our ‘disbelief’ that stood in the way of our actually accepting the Divine Revelations. These obstacles within ourselves first had to be removed before we could open ourselves completely to the glorious messages.

Gradually, the sessions became easier and we were better able to surrender ourselves to them. ‘Writing’ these Revelations was a revelation in itself, but also a struggle. On the one hand, it was both intense and interesting to be allowed to receive these marvellous insights; on the other hand, we were constantly amazed that we had been singled out to do so. But we also asked ourselves: “What effect will this have on our lives and our relationships? Will people be infuriated with us?”

At a certain stage, after having been requested over and over again to make ourselves available, we decided to ‘go for it’ unconditionally and in complete confidence. The book then practically wrote itself. We are now proud and delighted to present it to you; we stand behind its entire contents.

Our relationship with Mary Magdalene, Jesus and Mary has stirred us deeply. The masters show us our ‘limitations’, but also our Divinity. The latter is often more difficult to accept than the former. Sometimes we do not let ourselves be touched completely by their love. And we have a kind of fear – a fear to admit and to acknowledge our true Divine essence and our connection with the higher dimensions. At the same time all the messages, prayers and exercises, for which we are most grateful, have filled us with inspiration and joy. They elevate us to our true nature. We would like to take you on a journey back to the Divine roots of mankind. A journey meant for all of us. May this book be our guide.

Foreword by Mary Magdalene, Jesus and Mary

Dear people on Earth

First of all, please let us thank you for all the love and dedication you have given us during the past two thousand years. About two thousand years ago, a major transformation occurred in the hearts of humans and on Earth in which we played an important part. Mankind was ready for it. Through our interaction with man we, too, have grown in our development, for which we are grateful. Throughout the years we have remained in contact with mankind. We have supported the human processes and development. You have gone through a lot over the centuries. Now it is time to reap the harvest. Mankind is entering a new phase and so are we. For you, this has to do with an awakening of the consciousness of Christ in your hearts, the embodiment of unconditional Divine love. For us, as mankind takes over more of our tasks on Earth, it means that we can connect and collaborate more with extraterrestrial light beings and that we will concentrate more on Earth’s connection with the universe.

Mankind is ready to embrace the energy of Christ in their hearts. The energy of Christ is a source of bliss, connection and creativity. There is a lot to do on Earth. You are ready for a transformation of all the forms that the human existence on Earth has assumed up to now. Because although you have occupied yourselves all these years with religious norms and values, an essential piece of the puzzle has been missing and that is your own Divine nature, your Divinity. This insight will change the way humans view life. This essential basic principle is lacking in practically all the creations of the current human civilisation. As soon as you accept this truth, your hearts will open and you will discover that society does not reflect this essence. And then you will have the need to transform your houses, buildings, relationships, communication models, economy, politics and all other aspects that belong to the human existence into forms that better reflect your Divinity.

During the past two thousand years you have occupied yourselves with us and with a limited version of our teachings. For several reasons, these teachings lacked certain essential aspects, such as the Divine essence of all that exists and of man in particular, the equality of man and woman, the presence of the energy of Christ in all your hearts, the possibility of man to be a master, the purity of human conception and a series of other aspects that you will encounter when reading this book.

In the course of time, you have created and shaped an incomplete picture of us. We feel that that picture needs to be clarified. The time is now right. You will discover new aspects while reading our Revelations. Open yourself to them and let them into your heart. Trust your intuition and give yourself space and time to integrate these new messages into your life on this beautiful planet Earth. Say the prayers with respect as often as possible as dictated by the heart so that you can feel our presence and energy. Do the exercises intensively, demurely and conscientiously so that they can help you open your heart to enable you to become more and more your real self on Earth. This will bring us ever closer together.

With love and unity,

Mary Magdalene, Jesus and Mary

Foreword by the Brother- and Sisterhood of Love and Light

Dear people on Earth

You may wonder who we are. We are a group of spiritual masters (both male and female) who have already experienced all human dilemmas of existence in countless incarnations and who have completed all learning phases on Earth as humans. We are able to look upon you with compassion from a broader perspective and a higher dimension, so that we can help you on both an individual and a collective level to build a bridge between your Divinity and your personalities in your various lives on Earth.

We have been incarnated in various cultures and at various times in the history of man. We have experienced all the different aspects of human existence in several lives and have disengaged ourselves from them. We have outgrown human illusions and have raised ourselves above human experiences by experiencing and accepting them and by giving them their own place. We have discovered that the apparent happiness that every human experience offers is only temporary. True happiness lies in accepting who we are in essence, in radiating our Divinity and in our connection with the unconditional love of the heart. This is how we were able to disengage and become serene. This placed us above the duality of material, emotional, rational and other contrasts, above ‘choosing sides’, above ‘having the last word’; it allowed us to accept all aspects of Earthly life and all human experiences. We are now full of compassion and joy, have let go of ‘the struggle’ and enjoy the Divine ‘game’, all manifestations of life on Earth and the human existence in particular. We are spiritual powers that represent various aspects of God. We were incarnated once and recognised and acknowledged by you as Buddha, Lao Tse, Mary, Jesus, Mary Magdalene, Confucius, John, Rabbi Shimon, Sri Aurobindo, Zarathustra and many other masters.

We have waited a long time to make contact with man in this way. We have inspired and guided you in the background from the spiritual world throughout the centuries. As your awareness grew, communication with you became increasingly stronger. The more you opened your hearts, the more you turned to us for inspiration and guidance. The more you turned to us, the more we were allowed to support you in finding the Divine spark in yourself.

Mankind has now reached the stage that it is able to take responsibility for its own Divinity, just like we and everything else that exists are Divine. We can enter into this new phase together with joy. It is a new period in which man takes centre stage, in which you will bring, to an increasing extent, the action and words of the heart into the material world. And you will more and more often proclaim and live up to the message of unconditional love and allow your love for yourself and others. This will result in a new order on Earth with ever greater and deeper love and fraternisation – love and fraternisation that are based on your love for yourself, or in other words, the healing of the individual that ultimately results in the healing of society. People can finally also love themselves. The love for yourself cures all the old spiritual wounds, which then no longer need to be projected and vented on society. If people feel peace and love in their hearts, peace and love will develop in society; this is an essential piece of the puzzle that may soon be whole. The healing of the individual, of the relationships with family and friends and of society will again enable this planet to connect more consciously with the cosmic order to which Earth belongs. The fulfilment that this connection brings about will create a new wave of bliss on Earth inspiring the people to come together in united awareness; the ultimate human experience of being Divine.

We, the Brother- and Sisterhood of Love and Light, of whom particularly Mary Magdalene, Jesus and Mary address you in this book, stand ready to give you even deeper, clearer and more devoted guidance in this phase, partly enabled by your personal growth. It is for this purpose that the three of them give you this book. Feel free to seek direct contact with them in stillness or in the passion of your heart. They can be approached at all times and in any way. You will feel their answer in your heart.

Mankind has arrived at a special time in its development. You are on the verge of discovering the illusion of duality. More and more people want to see the whole truth and are no longer satisfied with part of the truth. You no longer believe in a struggle against a possible evildoer and believe less and less in the existence of victims and offenders. Mankind is about to experience and to acknowledge its own Divinity and to take complete responsibility for all its own creations on Earth. This can be compared to the end of the adolescent phase after which one enters adulthood and stands on one’s own two feet. May this book contribute to your process of awakening, liberation and transformation so that Divine love can manifest itself on Earth from the human heart.

Together in the heart

The Brother- and Sisterhood of Love and Light

How to use this book

‘The Divinity of Mankind – Revelations of Mary Magdalene, Jesus and Mary’ is not the kind of book you read from beginning to end without putting it down. The Revelations are often so innovative and ‘out of the ordinary’ that you will need some time to digest them and give them a place in your heart and realm of thought. You may have some difficulty with certain chapters because they affect you personally and might lead you into a personal process. Take your time. Skip these chapters if necessary and come back to them later when the book has become a part of you.

Experience proves that readers develop a bond with the book in their own particular way; they look for and develop their own method to benefit fully from the book, to enjoy it and to continue to be amazed.

So it is not a book to be approached purely from a rational point of view. It is above all an exercise book and ‘feel’ book. By practicing the exercises and prayers you will ‘sense’ or ‘feel’ a clearer picture of yourself, connect with the spiritual world and create an atmosphere and an energy of the heart that substantiate your own Divinity and open your heart so that you become an increasingly more loving person for yourself, for your fellow man and for the world.

The Exercises

The purpose of the exercises proffered by Mary Magdalene, Jesus and Mary is for you to gain insight into yourself and to gradually open your heart. To achieve this, you can best do the exercises with your eyes closed unless stated otherwise. Closing your eyes automatically puts you in touch with your deeper spiritual levels. It would be wonderful if you had a ‘buddy’ with whom you could take turns doing the exercises. This buddy can help you by reading the exercises out loud at a speed you feel comfortable with. You can signal how fast or slow you want to go by a gesture of the hand or by nodding your head, for instance. You can agree on some signals in advance so that the person who is doing the exercise can remain in the depths of his or her experience whilst indicating the pace.

The exercises initiate a process of awakening that can unfold during the days and weeks after doing the exercises. This process continues its work in your consciousness. You will notice that the exercises will pop up regularly in your mind during your daily activities.

Follow your own intuition to determine the order and frequency of the exercises. Share your experiences and insights with others. Inspire others to examine and develop themselves. Let others inspire you. Your individual growth is also linked to teamwork.

The Prayers

The prayers provide the link and connect us with our spiritual friends. Use them for everything that you do, wish and experience from your heart. Be uninhibited in this. Pray as often as possible. Praying opens your heart and introduces a pleasant high vibration into your life and into the lives of others. Pray often for yourself and often for others. Pray regularly for our planet and for mankind. By praying you raise the collective consciousness of mankind to a higher level. Share the prayers with others; do not keep them to yourself. Share what you experience through the prayers with them too. Inspire others to use them as well or to pray in their own way.

We recommend that you make notes of what you experience in order to track your developments over time. Focus your attention completely when saying the prayers. Feel every word and allow every word to penetrate. Pray as much as possible at a leisurely pace. This will enable the prayers to touch deeper levels within yourself. Keep still for a moment after each prayer to feel the effect of the prayer within yourself.

After getting up in the morning and before going to bed at night are ideal moments to pray. Before having a meal, it is also nice to dwell, through prayer, upon the useful role that other beings fulfil in your life and to be thankful for it. Your heart will open even further. In this way you will receive the spiritual nutrition that the life forms you consume wish to give to you. This way we may receive their unconditional love.

The prayers can be found throughout the book in the various Revelations. To make them more accessible during your daily activities, they are repeated at the back of the book in larger print for copying. This makes them easy to carry about with you. Or you can leave them on your bedside table, for instance, or any other familiar place where you can easily pick them up at regular intervals.

The Revelations

The Revelations in the book are in a specific order intended to take you by the hand on your journey within yourself. However, you may feel compelled to read them in a different order. Feel free to do so; it makes your inner journey more personal.

It may be that, while reading a particular Revelation, you feel you must stop because – as physical reactions indicate – you have entered into a process within yourself. In this case it is advisable to close your eyes and ‘descend into the depths’. Take all the time you need and allow yourself sufficient leeway; it is an integral part of the process. The book is intended to occupy a place in your life so that it can stimulate your inner transformation as fully as possible.
