In the Footsteps of Mary Magdalene


Event Details


2019 Cathar Retreat with David Lorimer and Marianne van Mierlo

In the Footsteps of Mary Magdalene, 13-20 October

Come and join us in October on a deepening spiritual journey in the Languedoc. Our retreat In the Footsteps of Mary Magdalene will enable you to explore the feminine spirituality associated with Mary Magdalene. This builds on the historical connections with the Languedoc and the mediaeval Cathars, who claimed to represent the original Christianity as a gnostic path of love in non-dual relationship with the Spirit. This is reflected in the spiritually powerful text associated with them, The Gospel of the Beloved Companion, which we will study during the week. We will be visit local sacred sites associated with Mary Magdalene and the author of The Dream of the Cosmos, Anne Baring, will join us remotely for a session on Mary and the Cathar Esclarmonde de Foix.
