Mary, the Mother Goddess

Would you like to comment on the name and the position of Mary in spiritual sense?


The (male) monastery Maria Resort is a tribute to Mary. On the façade is mentioned

Per Mariam ad Jesum, or through Mary to Jesus.
Who is Mary and what is her significance?

You mortals think differently about her. Mary is assumed to be:

• The Mother of God, for Christ is the Son of God
• The comforter of the afflicted, the unfortunate, the sinners
• The eternal virgin, of Immaculate Conception
• The crowned Queen of Heaven (Catholics)
• The mother of the prophet Jesus, a remarkable and ordinary woman, for God can not have a mother (the Muslims)
• A mother who saw her son tortured and murdered, symbol of the mother and her earthly suffering (humanists)
• The Goddess, the better half of God (New Age)
• The equal of Tara of Compassion (Hindus) and Kuan Yin (she, who is hearing the cries of distress on earth, the Chinese female Buddha)
• Symbol of the pure and feminine on earth (esoteric).

My son, I'll tell you this truth: in the spiritual world it does not really matter what you mortals are all believing thinking and interpreting and differently.
We are equally taking care for all religions and tendencies.
As long as you are not boxing each other ears.

What We would like you to do is:

• being inspired by your own image of Mary
• being motivated to the spiritual life
• getting hope when you say the name of Mary
• in all worries of everyday life are getting tempted to the choice of the inner, the spiritual
• love what Mary is symbolizing: purity, devotion, love for God
• considering her as comforter of the afflicted and unfortunate
• honorering her as the one who is hearing the cries of distress on earth
• are feeling supported by her presence in your life
• considering her as the feminine aspect of God, the world is needing this aspect badly.

On the facade of the monastery stands:

"By Mariam ad Jesum, through Mary to Jesus"

The spiritual world is considering this as:

• Through love reaching God
• Through the experienced feelings to the believing mind
• With a pure heart to surrender to the Inner
• With humility of man to God's Will
• With sincere prayer to the touch by God
• With the experience of life to the insight of being
• With suffered grief to higher understanding of life
• Through childhood becoming son and daughter of God
• Through the feminine considering the male
• By love to the Christ consciousness
• Through caring charity to the Kingdom of God on earth.

The monks of Mary Refuge are blessed.

My blessings to you all
