Your new book is critical to religion, where dictates and doctrine are stronger than compassion and effort to serve. Did someone warn you against the eventual controversy caused by celebrating the Great Mother – or did you even warn yourself sometimes?
I always knew the potential for controversy in this book but I also thought that the feminine side of God is increasingly being recognized. People are no longer interested purely in religion, what matters now is personal faith. And you can see that this preoccupation is taking the lead in all nations despite the extremisms that, unfortunately, are more visible.
Anything that people come up with are always subject to criticism. At least it proves that what we created is real and not just in our imagination.
I am very sad that there are still so many aparently intelligent people who are not open to accept that God might not be a male.This is a discriminating attitude.Think it start with the story of poor Eve that offered to Adam as desert at dinner,an apple.?Any man who study little customs,relligions,might notice that there are Godessess ,very important and powerful,almost in any period of time and in all world.That means is an item that repeats itself,so,maybe is myth,symbol living in the uncounscient.It is living,because in a moment,it had a powerful impact.There must be a good reason for that.Thank God there are people like Paulo Coelho,who has the courage to reconsider things,Bye
Religion is a rich political party that has an image of god as his running candidate.
“what matters now is personal faith”.
Teaching has flown in our veins for centuries. It is like beating with our hearts, as an innate knowledge we could use whenever we want.
Faith is a sacred gift.
One is all and when the voice of the Great Mother will make people aware of this beauty then it’s more then time to live Her voice.
Thank you for sharing Her heart with yours.

Thank God… or thank goodness… for this development, which will surely be our saviour…
Religion has been misused and it’s message distorted many times to suit “man’s” whim & advantage.
So long as we are strong, no-one can distort or misuse a faith which lives & grows in our hearts.
Love, & have faith in what your heart tells you, Paul
