Re-discovering the Gnostic Mary Magdalene

The legend goes that Mary Magdalene lived and taught in this area after she fled Jerusalem after the crucifixion of Jesus. During this week we will go on a quest and explore the hidden mysteries of Mary Magdalene. In many places we will find signs of her presence: in churches, in little chapels dedicated to her, in caves and in Cathar Teachings. We will explore her message in the Gospel of the Beloved Companion. The charming country-house where we will stay 'La Borde Blanque' is a beautiful tranquil place in the foothills of the Pyrenees at border of the magnificent lac Montbel.  Among our excursions will be: the medieval village of Mirepoix, the last Cathar stronghold Montsegur, the Cathar Caves near Tarascon, la Fontaine d'Amour near Rennes-les-Bains and many more. There will be inspiring talks, meditation, excursions to sacred places and of course there will also be time to relax and immerse yourself in the tranquil French countryside.
