4 Rainbow Bodies And Colors
Our former meditations are a VERY simple starting point. The energy body is a complex unit of structures and experiences that change depending on the nature of the soul. In Biblical terms, these bodies were referred to as a “glory body” and the Messiah had a body that was a “tangible glory body” which apparently was sufficiently like flesh to be touched, but different enough that it was not familiar flesh or immediately recognized to those who knew Him before. It is difficult to imagine this kind of existence for most people, however in sleep at people often catch glimpses of other forms of being and so the world of dreams allows one to more accurately envision what these “glory bodies” are like.
It is possible for any one chakra, or all of them to embody something that looks a like a soap bubble catching the light of the sun. A soap bubble is iridescent and the colors change depending on how the light strikes it. A Biblical analogy is Joseph’s Coat of Many Colors. In that example, we are to infer he had a literal coat that came in many colors, but then the “glory body” can do exactly the same thing and so his coat on some level must be meant as a symbol or replacement for this knowledge as a nod and wink to those who might know something more about it.
Therefore, certain “advanced souls” often have different colors to the standard rainbow body technique used above. This is going to be crucial for understanding the Lost Gospel of Mary Magdalene and the technique outlined in it to follow. Mary Magdalene was advanced at the Heart Chakra and we will be shown a meditation encoded in her gospel to show that this is so. Without further delay, let us begin to dig into this rich technique.
5 Lost Gospels, Legends, Etc.
If one is going to make a book about meditation based upon the purported writer of a gospel, then it makes sense that one should be aware of the life of the person who is allegedly the writer of said gospel.
When it comes to Apostles, there are many legends that abound. These legends abound sometimes based on truth, and sometimes they are created to serve a particular purpose. Whether they are real, or whether they are invented, in either scenario we should be aware of them as issues of their authenticity or lack thereof shall certainly come into view as a meditation technique will inevitably, if genuine, make the awareness of the matter rise. Here is one rendition of the legend of Mary Magdalene and her life and times:
Tradition has it that, after the execution of St. James in Jerusalem (son of Zebedee and Mary Salome), Mary Magdalene, her sister Martha and brother Lazarus were persecuted by the Jews of Jerusalem and imprisoned. The Jews were afraid of the crowd if they were to execute the prisoners so they towed them off the shores of Palestine in a boat without sails or oars or supplies and abandoned them to the open sea. Others in the boat included Mary Jacobe, mother of [the apostle] James [the Less] and the sister of the Virgin Mary, Mary Salome, mother of the apostles James and John, Maximin, one of the seventy disciples of Christ, Cedonius, the blind man who was miraculously healed by Jesus, Marcelle, Martha's servant, and Sara, maid of the two Marys.
After narrowly escaping death during a storm at sea the boat finally came to shore on the coast of Gaul in a town now called Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer in Camargue [coast of southern France].
Mary Jacobe, Mary Salome and Sara remained in Camargue. Martha traveled towards Avignon and ended up in Tarascon. Mary Magdalene, Lazarus, Maximin and Cedonius traveled on to Marseille where Mary Magdalene began to preach. They ended up converting the whole of Provence. Lazarus became the first bishop of Marseille. Mary Magdalene then went on to Aix where Maximin had already gone, some twenty miles north of Marseille.
Maximin became the first bishop of Aix and Mary Magdalene retreated to a mountain cave on the plain of the Plan d’Aups known as La Sainte Baume…1
Here it is seen how strong and old these traditions appear to be. The modern cities of Marseille (Marcelle) and Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer (Saint Marys of the Sea) are even named for them.
To fill in a little more of the traditional history, the boat also carried the Virgin Mary and her uncle, Joseph of Arimathea. According to the Eastern Orthodox Church he was the younger brother of Joachim, who with his wife Anne, were the parents of the Virgin Mary. Mary’s husband Joseph had died before the Crucifixion and apparently also Joachim, so Joseph of Arimathea was one of her closest relatives. According to Roman law, only near kin could beg for the body of an executed criminal, which would otherwise be thrown into a group grave. Hence, Joseph of Arimathea was allowed the privilege of recovering and entombing the body of the Savior.
The boat first landed on the shores of Africa where they got sails and oars and supplies. Then they were equipped to sail to Marseille. Joseph of Arimathea was very familiar with the way there because it was en route to the tin mines in the British Isles. He was a wealthy tin trader and man of great influence. After they arrived in Gaul (France) he and the Virgin Mary continued on to the British Isles. He had been commissioned by the Apostle Philip to take other men to teach the gospel and start a Church there, which he did at Avalon. It was there that the Virgin Mary died.2
Most tradition states that Magdalene died in France and some Catholic traditions go so far as to state they have her skull.3 As mentioned previously, however, we noted the Catholic Church has some reasons to want to try to assert control over Magdalene and her legacy since it would, by virtue of putting women in a role of equality, threaten the nature of the Catholic Church and its authority which is derived, they say, from Peter via the Pope. It is a curious fact that even this authority comes from, in part, where Peter was allegedly crucified upside down which just happens to be where the Circus was that was the site where many Christian believers were mauled by Nero. 4 In reality, we are not sure where Peter was crucified from a scriptural perspective, nor are we sure that he was crucified upside down as is commonly purported. All we know is that he was going to have to stretch out his hands and go where he did not want to go. Since Peter was given the keys to the kingdom, and Magdalene was in essence the bride of the kingdom, we must look askance at any tradition that goes beyond scripture. What purpose does it serve? If it is the will of the Vatican alone, then surely we must be a bit suspicious of that claim. Perhaps it is true, perhaps it is not. Where money and control of people through religion is an issue, we are likely to find some form of propaganda. The Truth, we are told, shall set us free.
An alternative idea concerning Magdalene is perhaps she did not die in France at all, but instead went on to Cornwall with Joseph of Arimathea and the Virgin Mary and a group of the people from the Church of Provence. The reality is that even if she did not, spiritually speaking, she certainly did. Which reality is the true one then? The one of the spirit, or the one of her physical journey? Both? Neither? It is best to leave this question right alone, and let spirit show a person who is meditating what it will.
Having covered the appropriate content concerning the legends of Mary Magdalene’s life, we can now begin commenting or offering commentary on her Lost Gospel. If this is not of interest to you, feel free to skip to the part of the book that deals with the technique as refined after the 2017 alignment otherwise here referred to as “That second time I re-wrote the book” or for future-proof edition purposes—the part where the Messiah is plugged into the equation and the Western system of belief is balanced against the Eastern system as a result. The Gospel of Magdalene is a deeper commentary on the first two techniques, and will, I think, show the writer of the book to be quite adept when it comes to the techniques contained in this book in their understanding and application.
It is worth noting that the Gospel of Mary Magdalene is often considered to be a Gnostic text. Gnostic is usually defined as “a set of people who do not believe in the Messiah in an overcoming death sense but value knowledge” though this is often a Greek sect in specific. Is it not odd that the book which is named after the chief penitent of penitents is most often thought of as a book that lacks the inclusion of the Messiah? It would be a little like calling a commentary on the Torah “The Hitler Wisdom Manual”. Clearly, the book is quite misunderstood. Let us see if we can not figure out the cause of the snarl.
We begin the Gospel of Mary Magdalene with six pages missing as translated by the https://www.gospels.net/mary website. That would seem to put us at a disadvantage—rather like being thrust into a river from a comfortable bed with no ability to prepare in between. Let us see if this is so.
