A Warm, Inspirational Introduction to the Divine Feminine

"Why has every culture had the female principle except for the continents of North America and parts of South America? Is it because these were the main areas targeted by missionaries? Like the angels that have pervaded every culture, Mother God was also part of every civilization--until some religions like Christianity tried to suppress Her." - From the book Prolific bestselling author Sylvia Browne tackles the subject of the Divine Feminine in her book Mother God: The Feminine Principle to Our Creator. Taking readers through literature, art, history, religious tradition, and sacred texts, Sylvia explains the many faces of Mother God and why She has likely been suppressed from Western culture (e.g. "history is written by the [male] conquerors"). Sylvia also shares insights about "Azna" (Browne's name for the Divine Feminine) provided by her spirit guide, Francine, as well as moving stories and miracles from fellow ministers, congregants, and readers--even skeptics. Apparently, belief in Mother God seems to have no bearing on the comfort, provision, and miracles delivered to supplicants, she writes. In addition to historical facts, stories, and letters about Mother God, Sylvia also provides several prayers and meditations, in addition to answering oft-asked questions about the nature of evil and the role of Azna. For example, she answers questions about talking to Azna, why She seems to send flowers as confirmation of heard prayers, and why She is symbolized by a sword (something I've not heard of before.) After reading Father God--which left much to be desired--I didn't expect too much from the book Mother God. However, I was very much surprised at the warmth conveyed by the stories as well as Ms. Browne's obvious love for the co-Creator. Although Sylvia and her ministers have researched Biblical, Gnostic, and literary texts, Mother God (and any book I've read by Sylvia) is NOT a scholarly work. If you're looking for original, scholarly work on the Divine Feminine, you'll have to read works by Elaine Pagels, Karen Armstrong, Bart D. Ehrman, and others. I have a bit of a problem with how Sylvia anthropomorphizes the Divine by casting them in a perfect Father/perfect Mother role. She criticizes humanizing God (such as painting Father God as vengeful, capricious and jealous), but then projects all that is "good" onto them. Does the Divine really function as a "parent"? What makes one emotional state "good" and another "bad"--especially in terms of the Divine? Does God "rescue" individuals from accidents and death? If so, does this make He/She "good"? And what if a person gets ill and dies--does that mean God is indifferent or cruel? Sylvia acknowledges that Father and Mother are a "symbol" (page 3) and that the Divine "can't be divided" (page 5), but I suppose in a dualistic Universe, it's natural to project dualism on the Creator (except for bad behavior or "evil" actions, which Sylvia says God cannot do.) There some misspellings in this b

shaking up the universe a little

for some time now i have waited forall the glowing reviews that tend tofollow the release of sylvia's works.and waited...so i bit the bullet and ordered it with little foreknowledgeof what to expect in this approach to the principle closest to my heart. iam not disappointed, but instead have to wonder how the message is being received by those not given to this line of thinking. the idea of a deity who does not rule through fear and punishment may frighten many folks - but during this time in history withenduring challenges to traditionalreligious thought, perhaps some canwrap their minds (and arms and hearts)around a creative force to save our planet and its peoples. many timesover the years i have read that it will take the nurturing force of a 'mother' to save us from destroying ourselves...praise heaven, let the females step forward to take up the challenge, and bless sylvia browne for putting it on the table. as she always writes, "take what works for you and leave the rest". thank you, sylvia, and guide us, azna, for the highest good of all.

Worth the Wait! Thank you Sylvia!

This is by far one of sylvia's best! All of us Gnostics have been waiting a long time for this book to come out. Now all of the world can know more about Mother God! You will not be disappointed!

Truly Inspirational!

This book was worth every penny I paid for it. Not only does it give proof of Mother God Azna, but it describes her active role in our lives, and Sylvia also provides letters from people who have received true miracles from petitioning Azna, Mother God. After reading this book, I decided to petition her myself. I can't tell you what my petition was because it is personal, but I can tell you within a week of petitioning Azna, I received an answer to my prayer, which was a true miracle. Thank you Azna!

First Time Sylvia reader - Love This Book

Incredible insightful - This is the first Sylvia Browne title I have read and I must say it was much better then I anticipated. She gives you a lot to think about when it comes to Mother God and shows how this is not a "New Thing" but part of religous history.Love the Book
