    THE ETERNAL FEMININE AND  
    THE TRANSFORMATION  
    OF RELIGION 
    (Educational Project) 
      
    "There are two
    types of people: one that seek freedom  
    (spirituality), the other seeking security (religion). Both needs  
    are genuine. Because of his/her love for the people  
    a true master is offering both 
    
      
        Womb Worship
        is aimed at people, who feel attracted by the Cosmic 
        Mother as the Ultimate Reality and a New World based on feminine  
        values. Since the established Church increasingly
        fail to provide the  
        necessary renewal of religious life, we consider it as
        utmost  
        important to at least try - however incomplete - to fill the  
        gap. It is not an attempt to establish a religious organization.
         
        It is rather a virtual project, aiming at giving you inspiration,  
        encouragement and compassion  |

        Seven Principles as a
        Precondition for Renewing Western spiritual-religious Tradition 
        1. God didn't create the world out of
        nothingness, but rather Nothingness is giving birth to both God and the universe, the
        latter continuously returning to their Origin  
        2. This Nothingness is a Vacuum, a
        Cosmic Womb, also called "Great Mother" and "Her" Law of the Universe:
        the dynamic balance between death, rebirth and the web of life 
        3. It is the foundation to a
        "feminine" world view: interconnectedness, love, care, cooperation, solidarity,
        justice, wholeness and harmony with nature 
        4. Christ isn't that unique
        beginning, neither is he the "Only Begotten Son of God", but rather a chain in a
        long tradition of "dying and resurrecting Godmen" (a.o. Osiris, Tammuz, Baal,
        Attis, Dionysos....) 
        5. Core of the tradition is its
        continuous renewal through spiritual Realization e.g. God-Experience. "Jesus doesn't
        need followers, but successors". Moreover, sacred sources of all religious traditions
        are cherished equally 
        6. Women have leading positions on
        all levels. They are incarnated Goddesses 
        7. Main mission of the tradition is
        to Restore the Wholeness of Life: "Heaven (God-Realization), earth (the body, harmony
        with nature, lust for life, sex) and the community (self-sovereignty, integration,
        solidarity)". One way to experience this is through spiritual practice e.g. our Universal Way 
        We call this renewal "The Original
        Tradition" 
        with "Womb Worship" as its practice  
        (See also: "Great Mother Buddhism")

        It is because
        he (God) was foolish by not knowing his Mother, that he said: "I am God, and apart
        from me there is no one". The Mother hearing him talking like that, exclaimed
        "Don't lie, Jaldabaoth..." 
        Valentinus in E.Pagels "The Gnostic Gospels" 
        "The biblical "Sophia" is
        the Mother of the Universe, the highest deity in Heaven, "equal to God". In the
        Russian Orthodox Ritus She is still considered to be the All-Embracing One, the
        personification of the "Eternal-Feminine"              
         
        "One of the most popular tales in
        Russia is "The Visit of the Mother of God to Hell". This "proof" of
        Her limitless compassion (to visit the victims of eternal punishment) is directly linked
        with the archaic myth of Inanna  
        going to the Underworld searching for Her Lover" 
         
        "The title "Mother of God" (Theotokos) for the Madonna was
        exacted from by the people (431, Efese), who wanted to restore the status of the Original
        Great Mother. Hence,  the concept of the "Mother of God" has  
        to be taken literally" 
         
        "Cybele, the Great Mother is being considered by Emperor Julian as the
        Ultimate, giving birth to the Gods, which in their turn are begetting the visible
        world" 
                                
        J.Bidez "La Vie de l'Empereur Julien"
                        
         
        "Jean Gerson, chancellor of the
        University of Paris (around 1400) denounced images of the Madonna, symbolizing the entire
        Trinity as being the fruit of Her Lap" 
                                         
        L. Huizinga "Herfsttij der Middeleeuwen" 
        "The Black Madonna's are in direct
        lineage with the Great Mother: the African Black Mother, Kali, Cybele, Isis and Artemis.
        F.e. in 679 the Merovingian King Dagobert II established the cult to "the one which
        today receives the name of Our Lady 
        and who is our Eternal Isis"  
        "The Holy Grail as Vessel of Abundance
        is symbolizing nothing  
        but the Cosmic Womb" 
        "Darkness precedes the Light" 
        Inscription in the altar of Salerno Cathedral 
        God didn't create the world out of
        nothingness, but rather Nothingness  
        is giving birth to both "God" and the world. The Eternal Feminine  
        is the Ground of Existence. 
        "The Madonna as "Queen of
        Heaven" - as expressed in countless sanctuaries, patronesses, churches, religious
        orders and festivals - has always played a dominant role in popular devotion. Christ
        really comes second" 
        "Consciously or unconsciously, Marian
        theology is moving toward a significant reinterpretation of the original
        Christian concept of  
        the Godhead as consisting of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit"

    teachings are universal, including all traditions. Being Nothing he embraces  
    everything, without identifying himself with any particular philosophy or belief.  
    He neither has followers, nor has he established any organization. His  
    passion is to be available to every sincere seeker...
