An inner knowing drove me to the church of Notre Dame de Sabart in Tarascon-sur-Ariege, where I knew there was a Black Madonna known as Notre Dame de la Victoire. She greeted visitors with a beautiful glance, hands in prayer, and a lovely crown upon her head. The crown was especially striking. I decided to explore further and went forward to behold at either side of the altar, a sculpture of Mary Magdalene in prayer, with her urn, book, and skull close by. On the other side was a sculpture of Anna instructing her daughter , Mary. There was a chair nearby where I sat down, drawn by the beauty and simplicity of the truth of the true teachings that passed from mother to daughter. I felt a peace come over me and a release of the tensions I had been feeling around a number of technological issues.
The next few days brought the opportunity to share the experience and during the night, an opening in the crown chakra, as if the crown had been placed on my head, and streams of energy flowed down from the universe into my crown. .
