Also they all carried in their hearts an ever-burning love for their "Fair Lady"...
the golden Maria... their Light and enigmatic Magdalena... Cathars piously kept the
true story of Radomir’s interrupted life in their hearts and swore to save his wife and
children whatever the cost, for which they all paid with their life two centuries later. It
is a truly great and very sad story, Isidora. I am not sure whether you need to hear it.

– But I want to know about them, Sever! Tell me, where all gifted ones came from?
Can it be the Valley of Magicians?
– Of course they can, Isidora. In fact it was their home! It was exactly the place
to which Magdalena came back. But it would be wrong to do justice only to the gifted
ones. In fact the Cathars taught even ordinary peasants to read and write. Many of
them knew poetry by heart, no matter how unbelievable it may sound to you. It was the
real Dream Country – the Country of Light, Knowledge and Verity created by
Magdalena, which spread surprisingly quickly, involving thousands of new "cathars"
who also were ready to protect faithfully the Knowledge they were given, as well as
their Golden Maria – the source of it...

Magdalena’s teaching swept over countries like a hurricane, leaving no thinking
person indifferent. Aristocrats and scientists, artists and shepherds, tillers and kings
joined the Cathars. The rich ones easily gave their riches and lands to the Cathar
"church" in order to make its great power stronger and to spread the Light of its Heart
over Earth.
– Forgive me for interrupting, Sever, but did the Cathars really have their church
too? Were their teachings a religion?

– The concept of "church" is very different, Isidora. That one was not a
church as we understand it. Magdalena and her Spiritual Temple was the Cathars’
church, that being the Temple of Light and Knowledge, just as Radomir’s Temple, the
knights of which were the Templars in the beginning (It was the King of Jerusalem
Baldwin II who called the Knights of the Temple Templars.) They did not have a fixed
building where people would come to pray. The church of the Cathars was in their
souls. But it did have its apostles (or as they were called – the Perfect ones); of course,
Magdalena was the first of them. The Perfect ones were people who had reached the
higher stages of Knowledge and devoted their lives to serving it. They perfected their
Spirit continuously, almost renouncing physical food and physical love. The Perfect
ones served people, teaching them their knowledge, healing and protecting their ward
from the tenacious and dangerous claws of the Catholic Church. They were amazing

and selfless people ready to protect the Knowledge, Faith and Magdalena, who gave all
this to them, to the end. It’s a pity that almost all diaries of the Cathars were destroyed.
The only thing we have is the notes of Radomir and Magdalena, but they don’t contain
the exact events of the last tragic days of the brave and light Cathars, because it
happened two hundred years after the death of Jesus and Magdalena.
– Tell me, Sever, how did the Golden Maria die? Who had so black a spirit as to
lift his dirty hand against this wonderful woman?
