I met Magdala Ramirez 12 years ago and since the moment I saw her, I called her Ma. I am from India and in my culture it is a form of honoring to call someone Ma. The more I got to know her, the immense love I have always felt from her- I instantly became her spiritual daughter. Over the many years, through many ceremonies, phone conversations, group conversations, online school, seminars and webinars I have been recording, in writing, her teachings and sayings. I find, for me, it is hard to sit with Ma without having a notebook next to me or my computer - because it does not matter where we are or what we are doing, the wisdom that Ma brings forward is so pristine that I cannot help but try to capture it in that moment. The Golden Archives are the pearls that come from those conversations. 

It has truly been an honor to be able to sit with Ma and listen to these teachings. I hope everyone is able to recognize their importance. I have found them life changing for myself. 

I hope the Golden Archives brings forward the light you seek within yourself.
