I personally have my own knowledge and experiences about the One Woman who have made a great influence in my life ~ during childhood, teenage life and adulthood. My mother was partly involve in making me realize that She is the Mother of The Lord Jesus.I grew up following certain christian traditions closely related and associated with The Blessed Mary, and as I grew up learning more information about who She is and her role in this life of mine, I understand that there's something more about her being an Icon of the christian faith.
In my teenage life and being part of the group The Legion Of Mary, I learned to connect deeply in her works ~ thru cathechism and charity works. I silently followed the way without having exact information of who she really was. Many years passed and as I continue to grow and gained understanding about her and the influence She's making to our world - I begun to see more clearly the real picture of why christianity made her one of the famous Icon in human history.
I also begun to experience numbers and series of dream with her. I have not relate this to anyone during those times except to my mother. I kept those dreams intact in my mind and made them my own personal inspiration. There are communication thru dreams and constant reminders of how life should be treated. Minor instruction also was shared and I am delighted to keep them within my heart.
There will be no visible proof of that correspondence so to speak, or any materials to prove that they did took place. Because they all happen during dream state. I may have written few notes about them in my dream journal which all kept elsewhere in my home. But to all those wonderful experiences - there is one very particular information She shared with me, and that is being a man of faith - I should have better understanding of the opposite gender that I am dealing with, other than my mother. That a man and a woman were made not to harm each other, or to dis-respect one another - but to give respect equally. That if it is observe - peace will prevail in both of them.
According to Her, this is one main reason why pains, sufferings and disharmony is prevalent all over the world - because of the absence of respect. The other point She highlighted is the issue of womanhood, that I have to remember every dealings I will make with any women in the world - that every woman is a representation of one woman, meaning - women were all the same and it will be an exploitation against women if my perception of them differ from one another. Again, respect is the matter.
Likewise, all men are the same - and what respect I gave to all women must be equally shared with all men. That men are brothers no matter who they are, whatever religion they belong and whatever nationality they carry with them.
Yes, She has shown Herself to me in many different occasions thru dreams and most of them were vivid and like in real life situation. We made many formal conversation and some heart warming stories too..I may have not recalled them exactly as they were- for the duration was not timed and they were more like a friendly communication.
I am not a fanatic in christian faith, I am a Theosophist whose faith is purely base on The Only One Supreme Being Who is beyond everything and is in everything. Every religious foundation is base on one doctrine and that they all exist with one great purpose - and that is to assist humanity in their life.
The Blessed Mary for me is more than Icon, She is real and still existing at this very present generation. She does not belong to the past or 2,000 years old mother of our Lord Jesus - like our Lord and Master Jesus, She also fulfilled Her spiritual mission in this world and continuously assisting humanity in greater lenght. I am just one of the hundreds or thousand individual who do not just believe in Her existence but deeply respect that She is for real, not a mind creation of the religious groups. I have no major concern with the christian faith that is promoting Her for whatever purpose, I believe that to all things there's a plan and that She's part of it.
I just hope that mankind may one day realize that She is indeed one of the many great helpers of humanity.
