âThe first form is darkness; the second is desire; the third is ignorance; the fourth is zeal for death; the fifth is the realm of the flesh; the sixth is the foolish wisdom of the flesh; the seventh is is the wisdom of the wrathful person. These are the seven powers of wrath.â
- Mary 9:18 - 25, The gospel of Mary Magdalene
The âpowersâ âsinsâ or âdemons of the ego. Meggan Watterson, Author of âMary Magdalene revealedâ believes these are the seven demons that Jesus expelled from Mary, referred to in Luke 8:2.
Maryâs Gospel is an ascent narrative as it describes the path navigated to liberate the soul during life. Mary is regarded as the first apostle because she followed in Jesusâs footsteps and witnessed his death and resurrection. The Gospel reveals the wisdom that Christ gave only Mary, and features her telling the Disciples what they spoke of.
The powers are the states we humans embody through life, that keep us stuck, and separated from God. They are regarded as sins only by their nature of adultery. I interpret this as betraying God. They are what makes us human. Christ was both equal parts human and divine, he went on this journey to ascend, and shared his wisdom with Mary.
Then Peter said to him, âYou have been explaining every topic to us, tell us one thing. What is the sin of the world?â The Saviour replied âThere is no such thing as sin; rather you yourselves are what produces sin when you act in accordance with the nature of adultery, which is called âsinâ. For this reason, the Good came among you, persuing (the Good) which belongs to every nature.â
- Mary 3:1 - 5
Radical, huh? No wonder this gospel was hidden underground for safety, and not considered canon. Discovered in Egypt in the late 1896, written in Coptic and said to have been written in the second century, before the bible was complied in the third century. There are three known copies found. Itâs a gnostic text and is part of the Berlin Codex.
Meet the Demons: a deep dive
When someone says theyâre âfacing their demonsâ these are what I think of. If itâs our humanness that makes us sin, then are we inherently sinful? Iâm not sure I agree with that. Weâre humans, that isnât wrong or shameful. This is what the Gospel is telling us. These âdemonsâ are parts of our identity we shed when we become more like Jesus. Itâs not a infinite state weâre always in. Weâre not God. We return to ourselves every time we return to God. We become more like Christ when we return to God. Our Salvation is within us all along.
Learning about these powers made me feel seen, humble and grateful to not be alone. This perspective allows me to see my behaviour and allows me to confess and forgive and pray. Iâm less likely to judge others, and it gives me hope on my journey of faith.
Darkness
- hopeless, lack of faith, despair, depression, heaviness, trapped, stuck, loneliness
Desire
- clinging, craving, attachment, not accepting what you have and how things are, wishing for things to be different, greed, insecurity, lack
Ignorance
- lack of awareness, voluntary ignoring, small mindedness, unconscious state we fall into and act from. not indicating to the deficient of character or intelligence, ignorance can save us (only handle so much at once, freeze response, disassociation- not moral failing)
Zeal/Craving for Death
- not necessarily suicide, but gluttony. Making choices that neglect and endanger the health of others or ourselves. Extremes of pleasure that harm body. Destruction and hurt to ourselves. Soul is forgotten.
Realm of Flesh
- enslavement to physical body, when we fully identify with body and forget we are more than that, a soul, not just a physical body with needs. Relates to lust and greed when we put our temporary gratification over someone elseâs. Forcing physical needs on someone who dost not consent.
Foolish wisdom of Flesh/False peace of flesh
- sloth. Patterns of inaction, lead to not wanting to do anything. Procrastination, fear, reluctance to Change, stagnation, would rather suffer than accept the reality and make a change.
Wisdom of Wrathful Person
- anger is healing, responsibility to not hurt others with it. Not see others as worthy of disrespect, worthy of harm and pain.
Isnât the power that is harmful, but the presence of the power and absence of the soul.
I live my life based on the Bible, The Gospel of Thomas, Philip and Mary, and the Love Ethic described in bell hooks book âall about loveâ
God Bless <33

âNon esiste un atteggiamento giusto, esistono solo atteggiamenti adattati.â â Jean-Yves Leloup
Spunti di riflessione.
Ogni situazione richiede una risposta unica: lâelasticitĂ mentale Ăš una qualitĂ fondamentale. Invece di cercare un unico modo âgiustoâ di comportarsi, Ăš piĂč utile sviluppare la capacitĂ di leggere il contesto e rispondere in modo appropriato.

Amamos tĂŁo pouco e tĂŁo mal,
Com uma metade
Ou até mesmo com um quarto de nós mesmos.
E amamos, no outro,
Alguns pedaços escolhidos,
Os mais conhecidos,
Aqueles que nos causam menos medo.
à tão raro amarmos alguém por inteiro,
Com aquilo que nos agrada
E com aquilo que nĂŁo nos agrada.
Ă tĂŁo raro sermos amados por inteiro,
Com nossas cavidades
de sombra,
Com nossos dorsos de luz.

Il est bon d'ĂȘtre deux, dans ce monde inhospitalier... De s'accompagner sur la route, d'ĂȘtre attentifs l'un Ă l'autre, tendres l'un pour l'autre, de s'accorder des attentions mutuelles. D'ĂȘtre prĂȘts Ă partager douceurs et labeurs.
Catherine Bensaid & Jean Yves Leloup- (Qui aime quand je tâaime)

âI left the world with the aid of another world; a design was erased, by virtue of a higher design. Henceforth I travel toward Repose, where time rests in the Eternity of Time; I go now into Silence.â Having said all this, Mary became silent, for it was in silence that the Teacher spoke to her.â â âThe Gospel of Mary Magdaleneâ, Jean-Yves Leloup, #Gnostic #GnosticGospels #GospelOfMaryMagdalene

~ It requires a higher love to free oneself from a lower love. By the same token, it takes a higher and vaster representation of the world to free oneself from a lower one. Scientific progress itself depends on this. ~

MĂ©diter Ă coeur ouvert
MĂ©diter Ă cĆur ouvert permet en effet de regarder autrement tout ce qui nous entoure. Lorsque nous regardons une pierre, une fleur, un arbre, un papillon, une fourmi, un ĂȘtre humain, nous les regardons avec une attention aimante. Les poĂštes sont de grands mĂ©ditants, car ils savent justement regarder les choses les plus ordinaires avec un regard neuf, Ă©merveillĂ©, attentif au petit dĂ©tail qui nousâŠ

"la dimension féminine, angélique ou "orientale" de de la connaissance humaine."
l'Ăvangile de Marie - Jean-Yves Leloup

Et si des premiers "pÚres de l'église" jusqu'à ceux d'aujourd'hui, au fil de cette histoire racontée encore et encore depuis 2000 ans avec les erreurs (volontaire ?)de traduction de l'Araméen au Copte puis au grec ancien, au latin...il y avait eu une volonté politique de modifier les enseignement du Rabbi Yeshoua, de L'Enseigneur, du Maßtre Jésus ?
Dans l'Ăvangile de Marie, Myriam de Magdala, traduit par l'excellentissime hellĂ©niste Jean-Yves Leloup on y lit :
Pierre ajouta : « Est-il possible que lâEnseigneur se soit entretenu ainsi, avec une femme, sur des secrets que nous, nous ignorons? Devons-nous changer nos habitudes ; Ă©couter tous cette femme? Lâa-t-Il vraiment choisie et prĂ©fĂ©rĂ©e Ă nous ? »
Et tant d'autres secrets qui n'en sont pas vraiment ! Faut juste lire, pas du JUL, hein, avoir le goût de lire, d'écrire, car sans ça tu ne sauras pas réfléchir et si tu ne sais pas réfléchir les faux maßtres et vrais tyrans s'en chargeront à ta place !!!!
Et ça ni les Maßtres, honneurs aux femmes d'abord, Marie/Myriam, Jésus, Bouddhas ne l'auraient souhaité !!!
Respect à toutes les mÚres de clan, les vraies, sans lesquelles il n'y aurait pas d'onctions sacrées !

''Dans le vocabulaire grec, AgapĂš est un mot nouveau. Ce fut le christianisme qui amena la naissance de ce mot. Il naĂźt un nouveau mot quand naĂźt une nouvelle expĂ©rience. Ce fut lâexpĂ©rience de lâamour gratuit, de lâamour pour rien !''
''Nous produisons des « objets aimants ». Nous demandons Ă notre enfant lâamour qui nous a manquĂ©.''

somos o que doamos
"Tudo o que nĂŁo fazemos por amor Ă© tempo perdido. Tudo o que fazemos por amor Ă© a eternidade reencontrada. A Ășnica coisa que nĂŁo nos podem tirar, a Ășnica coisa que a morte nĂŁo pode nos tirar, Ă© aquilo que doamos. O que tivermos dado, nada nem ninguĂ©m pode nos tirar. Ă essa doação que fica de nĂłs mesmos.â
