Mary Magdalene intensive
A calling for truth
In a time when we are daily invited into awakening – when the longing for inner truth and remembrance calls out for so many of us – I invite us to gather around the wisdom of Mary Magdalene. A wisdom so filled with love and surrender, a wisdom that is accessible and practical in our everyday lives, as a way of being in life.
The Gospel of Mary Magdalene is found in the Dead Sea Scrolls, and it is this material we will dive into during this intensive, where we will immerse ourselves in the passages from 42.2 to 42.15 – “The Gospel of the Beloved Companion.”
As it says in the first part of the text: 'You who came into being, before coming into being'. It speaks of eternal life, of her awakening before the life she lived as Mary Magdalene. It speaks of how we are all awakened before this life, and how we, at any moment, can awaken into complete remembrance.
Framework for the intensive
Power of the mirror
All the wisdom we will ever need lives within each of us. In my experience however, to access this wisdom, to access freedom and full remembrance, we must dedicate ourselves to the reflection of wisdom. That is the mirror Mary Magdalene holds up for you – whether you choose to look into it, whether you choose to remember, is entirely up to you, always.
The great Masters who have walked before us, and who walk among us now, hold the deep knowing that everything is exactly as it should be at all times, and through that, one might somewhat figuratively say that they patiently ‘hold up mirrors’ for humanity, which we are free to look into when we are ready. That does not make it something special – it simply makes it wisdom, a wisdom we are all created in and from.
When we look into Mary Magdalene’s mirror, we will discover that we are guided deeply into the inner consciousness of God; we are shown the love we are created in and from – a love that is not influenced from the outside, but rests as a deep calm within unity.
Lived wisdom
Since I first journeyed to the French Pyrenees 20 years ago, I have experienced a unity with Mary Magdalen’s wisdom. I surrendered to her wisdom – not just to let the spiritual awareness speak, but to discover what is spoken through one’s own life experience. It is precisely this blend of personal experience and received, shared wisdom that forms the framework for these sessions I invite you to join.
My invitation lies in us exploring together, and in each of us testing this sacred text in own lives – only once tested and proven useful does it become wisdom. When we meet, we will explore this wisdom through an excerpt from the Gospel of Mary Magdalene. We will allow the wisdom to be remembered, we will heal, and awaken, and we will do so in a space filled with love, curiosity, and respect.
It is my expectation that through your participation, you choose to contribute actively – only together can we uncover and awaken.
What is an intensive?
Sadhana
Intensive means to give something a great deal of effort and attention over a short period of time, and it makes sense, as we meet 4 times to deeply immerse ourselves in these sacred texts. However, if I could wish for something for us humans, especially here in the North where I’m from, it would be that we found the courage, sat aside laziness, and dared to let the Intensive become lifelong. Perhaps we could call it intensive living – find what you want to immerse yourself in. In India, it is called 'Sādhanā'; it’s rooted in the Sanskrit word ‘Sadhu’, which means to move straight to the goal. To dedicate oneself to Sadhana means to dedicate oneself to one’s spiritual path, to choose a focus area and dedicate oneself to immersion and wisdom.
It is written in the New Testament that ‘the wisdom of the new age’ will come from the North. When I read this, it paints a picture of the religious freedom that we are fundamentally rooted in here in the North. It is my experience that the wisdom of the new age grows in the infinite love that was never born and will never die – the soil in which we all grow and from which we all grow. I experience Mary Magdalene speaking about exactly this: that in the unity of all things, humans grow like unique flowers in the garden of life, and from there we will all experience love and unity.
The school of life
These words grow as my inner wisdom, and I can only pass them on as inspiration to you. So the words are written here as wisdom for me, but it is my deepest wish that you do not simply make them truth for you – but that you immerse yourself, try things out, and through that litmus test create wisdom for yourself. To me, that is the only way.
No matter which masters I sit before, I always take their wisdom into my own life. I test, I immerse myself, I dedicate myself, and often I recognize; if I do not, I return to the master and ask questions, have exciting conversations, and through that, wisdom arises. Right there, I remember through the School of Life.
This Intensive is precisely an invitation to do just that: To ask questions, to explore, to test. In itself, that is precisely the meeting with wisdom.
