Product Description

Sylvia Browne, in her own indomitable style, again defies convention in this uniquely informative compilation of diligently researched facts and personal accounts about the premise of a female divinity—namely, the Mother God (also known as the feminine principle).

Spanning time from the earliest beginnings of humankind, when the time of the "Goddess" was at its peak, to the current era, with its myriad beliefs and religions, Sylvia takes us on a journey of discovery, where she discusses the suppression of the "Mother Goddess" by the male-dominated politics of modern-day religious dogma.

Using a combination of historical data and poignant and heartwarming stories revealing the power and miracles attributed to the Mother God, Sylvia leads us from the question of "Does She exist" to the logical, fact-based conclusion that She does . . . and then shows us how to call upon Her to help us in our everyday lives.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Start To Understanding The Origins of Religion, February 7, 2004

By	Linda Painchaud-Steinman "PARK EDGE BOOKS" (MA, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Religion as we know it now, is very different from what it was once upon a long-ago time.

Browne does a nice job of presenting the idea (and fact) that once, humanity worshipped a FEMALE deity. She has a down to earth writing style that makes this sometimes complex subject interesting and easy to understand.

Of course, her premise is not a new one. I first remember reading a fine book on this subject back in 1976. Written by Merlin Stone, it was called "When God Was a Woman." That book thouroughly detailed the historical facts leading from the original female deity worship to the present male deity worship.
It was eye-opening reading, but the author's style was somewhat dry.

Not so with Browne. Her style is engaging, and makes one want to know even more about this subject.

3.0 out of 5 stars Azna, February 25, 2004

By	Lielle N. (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews

I like Sylvia's work -- and even more important, her attitude -- but I find her books more like nuggets of gold than great works of art. Sometimes she recycles stories, sometimes (especially lately) she includes more 'customer comment' than great teachings ... but you know ... there's usually something in there that speaks to me strongly on my greatest need at the time. So it is with MOTHER GOD. This is a handy, succinct little book that I will keep with me so that I can be instantly reminded at any time about the feminine side of the Divine. And why worry if 'true scholars find no convincing evidence of widespread female deity worship'? Does not a child first bond with its mother? Sometimes knowledge isn't wisdom. Sometimes, you have to listen with your heart.

5.0 out of 5 stars Truly Inspirational!, March 25, 2004

By	rosie (USA) - See all my reviews

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!
