Guided by Spirit to write The Seven Guardians, this book describes the incredible path Miryam the Migdalah (Mary Magdalene) envisioned within her heart, guided by her beloved risen Yeshua (Jesus). Following the resurrection, Yeshua appeared to Miryam in her inner vision, confirming she was an advanced disciple with the ability to “see” the multidimensionality of the Universe beyond the Earth realm. This vision also validates their unique relationship; he loved her the most, and she loved him with a devotion that transcends death. The Seven Guardians is a path to rediscovering the importance of Miryam in the ministry of Yeshua as a fully realized human and divine, as well as a leader of the Nazarenes. This is the way of the heart, a path for all humans to follow to become ihidaya, enlightened ones, while embodied in this lifetime. The Seven Guardians relies on scholars, theologians, and authors who translated The Gospel of Mary, found in the desert of Egypt and The Gospel of the Beloved Companion, The Complete Gospel of Mary. It also relies on other apocryphal gospels recently translated, The Gospel of Phillip, Thomas, The Pistis Sophia and others, to validate the information. In discovering how patriarchy has affected our world today, this book includes personal stories, mystical experiences, and direct communication with Infinite Love to help us recognize how balancing our masculine and feminine energies are of paramount importance for humanity and Earth to evolve and survive. It is now time for us to reunite the light of our Divine Mother and Divine Father into our hearts to awaken our own Christ consciousness.
