Commentary on the Gospel of Mary Magdelane

This Gospel was found in Coptic in Berlin Papyrus and also some Greek fragments. It tells of a post resurrection discussion between Jesus and the Disciples in which Mary Magdalene steps forth as a profound esoteric teacher initiated into deeper levels of gnosis than the other disciplines had realised at first. This Commentary explores the complex meanings of the text and relates them to Gnostic, Hermetic, Qabalistic, pagan and other spiritual cosmologies, as well as Orthodox Christian and Jewish teachings. The Global Green University also runs the Mary Magdalene Studies Association which meets in France on July 22 each year.
