MORE ON JAMES TWYMAN
Take a look at this image of Our Lady of the Universe. The image is unsettling. Her neck is too long. Her feet are not in evidence. Her nose is too long. She does not appear either compassionate or friendly. She looks like an avenging angel. The world beneath her seems to be on fire.
The artwork was done by Jacqueline Ripstein and is copyrighted. Catholic visionary depictions are never copyrighted. They are given to the world by the powers of Heaven.
James Twyman uses this creepy image on his Order of the Beloved Disciple website. Notice also that the Hail Mary is cited, as is Fr. Joso's Prayer.
Fr. Joso is Catholic priest Fr. Jozo Zovko who has written the prayer of Our Lady of the Universe.
Twyman also uses this image to market his CD's.
Twyman claims a vision of the Blessed Virgin on "Apparitions Hill" in Medjugorje. The first chapter of his second book, which continues the story of the Emissaries of Light--the Indigo Children I've been blogging about--which is contained in his first book. The first chapter of the book is online here, and it describes the vision.
Twyman worships the divine feminine, or Divine Mother, in the form of the Blessed Virgin Mary, though he claims to be following the tradition of the Bogomils and Cathars with his The Beloved Community.
The articles on Fatima indicated the Hindus were also worshipping the Mother when they had a ceremony on the altar at Fatima.
And there is The Mother worship at Pondicherry, India, where the Matrimandir is the central focus of a community that bloomed in the desert, much like the community in Scotland, Findhorn, where some serious contact with disembodied spirits takes place.
Twyman's book is published by Findhorn Press.
