DEDICATIONS

This book is dedicated to my husband, and our four children who are always very understanding of my long hours and hard work for them, as well as my mother Jean Marie, and my late father, Robert William. I am especially grateful to my mother’s assistance in editing this work, and her appreciation for it. I am also highly appreciative to Sylvia Browne, Edgar Cayce, James Twyman, Doreen Virtue and Helen Schucman (A Course in Miracles) for their work channeling information from the other side so that we know the Divine is only peace and love. And finally, I do not believe that I would have set upon this path of feminine sacred writing without the very special assistance from my own 10 year old daughter, who is an indigo child, and who started chattering away about peace, love and Mother Goddess, Father God, angels and fairies from her very first words as a toddler. I would like to thank all of these very special people, as well as my many friends that believe in peace, love and the angels as well.

It is also dedicated to all the women and girls around the world that are discriminated against in more ways that are shameful for any good person to imagine. Please visit www.RAWA.org[1] to see but a few examples. Treaties are ignored, medical funding for poor pregnant women and infants is often withheld, all because it is considered to be culturally acceptable to do so. Female genital mutilation, denial of access to books, career opportunities and education are nothing but a form of forced slavery. This must end. This book is further dedicated to all the women and children who have suffered under such “rules” and “cultural acceptance” which have amounted to little more than shameful cruelty and severe oppression of the female gender.

A portion of the proceeds of every book will to be sent to charities benefitting poor and oppressed women and girls around the world, including the U.S. I further hope that some day computers may be sent to every girl and uneducated or undereducated woman around the world so that they might receive a good education via the internet.

MAY MOTHER GODDESS BLESS THEM ALL!

FORWARD

This book is intended to be a book of complete love, peace and spirituality. It has eliminates hate and violence from a most important sacred writing to usher in a new age of spirituality for an advanced planet and its inhabitants. It brings a new path to womankind towards the Divine and is especially geared toward women and girls. Concepts of polygyny[2] and discrimination towards females are herewith dispensed with. Women should have freedoms equal to that of men, including the right to delay marriage and the right to an education up to and including college. Separation of the sexes is as wrongful as slavery. The concept of sexual discrimination as a “cultural matter” is an obvious and severe mistake. This is because a man of quality understands women for equality.

INTRODUCTION TO THE KORANA

This book is an entirely new interpretation of the Koran, and it has been written by a woman entirely for women and girls. Did you ever try to read the Koran only to be grossly disappointed that it was geared almost exclusively toward men, and in particular, toward a male God? Or perhaps you found the use of war as an acceptable tool to settle differences, make money and spread religion to be abhorrent? In addition, much of the original book simply does not make much sense to non-Arab women that do not know the nuances of Arab culture and traditions. Maybe you found that the language used in the traditional versions of Shakir, Abdullah Yusufali and Pickthal use such archaic English that it is near impossible to read and understand the traditional former English Koran texts.

Well, this is your book. This Korana version has been almost exclusively feminized. Goddess has been used instead of God. The stories refer to women prophetesses and not men. The heros are heroines--Sarah (wife of Abraham), Nora (wife of Noah), Wileh (wife of Lot), etc., because they were in fact high priestesses and prophetesses in and of themselves. Many footnotes explain references specific to ancient Arab culture so you will not have to continually guess what was being referred to. The book teaches peace and not war. It teaches hell as an allegory to the process of reincarnation and earth as a school. Gabriel is referred to in feminine form as Gabrielle. A table is given to convert traditional names and places to feminized ones. The book is not centered on prohibiting the worship of Goddess via multiple idols and instead it is more centered on prohibiting the association of negative actions and emotions with Her, which is far more important. In this Korana, Goddess does not maim, kill, hate, commit acts of vengeance or retribution, nor does she engage in actions of violence and cursing against any person--She is pure love. The traditional Arab stories are rich and amazing and of interest to everyone. The concepts of Jesus Christ (Yeshua) and Mother Mary are especially interesting because they are based upon Gospels not found in the New Testament, but were in existence in 625 CE and were believed by many to be true and accurate. Neither Christian nor Jew should be offended by any derogatory statements, because these have been made into positive ones.

The Book was written in a prose format for two purposes. First, it makes it easier for people to read the Book aloud during a worship service, and it also allows the reader to get a sense of the original document where a few chapters were written in rhyme and meter, but the rest were written in soft prose. Alliteration and soft internal rhyming in sentences are kept for the same purpose.

If you find anything whatsoever in this book that promotes hate, violence, aggression, greed, self centeredness, or anything that shows Goddess in a negative light, please post it on my website at www.MotherGoddess.org on the bulletin board there and it will be promptly revised.

Note this book was written and inspired by George Sale’s Koran version which shows a publication date of 1860. This book included many footnotes of detailed explanation of Arab culture and stories. It has been compared with the traditional versions by Shakir, Abdullah Yusufali and Pickthal and others for accuracy. This book is copyrighted and may not be further copied or disseminated without written permission of the author.

Names of angels and archangels overwhelming female!

Does it matter? No. Sylvia says they don’t really have individual names anyway! (Her spirit guide Francine calls them all “Michael”) And since they don’t incarnate, they really don’t have a true gender as people do. Ask for an archangel, and if you want a female, you will get a female! They are assigned according to what you need to have done and they come prepared. If you ask them their name, they will give it to you, generally based upon whatever name you think is the best one.

On Eblis–the fallen angel. Legend has it that Eblis challenged Goddess and was banished from heaven to mislead womankind and eat unblessed food and haunt ruins. However, when Eblis arrived on earth, he began to foment hot winds which killed many of the people, so the angelic army went down to capture him and return him to heaven to learn heavenly ways. He learned and gained much stature there, until he got into trouble again and was banished back to earth until the day of final judgment when he will be cleansed. He is often synonymous with “the devil” or “Satan”, both very old evil deities or semi-deities.

Sylvia says there are no dark angels because of the way they are created. However, dark entities as ghosts sometimes are afraid to pass over because they think they will go to hell, or they are attached to something material that they love, such as a beautiful home or even a self portrait of them in beauty. If you happen upon a situation such as this, it is better to dump the home or item than have a nasty poltergeist hanging around. Although they cannot really harm you, they will scare you much as they can, and they can trip, slap, break and throw things.

1. This book is also dedicated to www.RAWA.org and may Allat bless their good work in fighting oppression, fascism, hate and aggression in religion. In particular, I dedicate the book also to Zainab, the Afghan girl I am currently sponsoring.

^{^[2]}Polygamy means multiple marriages. Polygyny means multiple wives at one time.
