During an exorcism, Father Bamonte collected some “private revelations” during the 2010 Novena of the Immaculate Conception, when it was already in the liturgical season of Advent. One of these was the following:“The Woman of expectation, hope, the Woman dressed in the sun, the dearest Mother. The Woman! Out of love for her children, she was created before all times in God’s thought, and I, a pure spirit, cannot bear it. This rotten flesh! She is feared by us because, with her humility, obedience, infinite merciful love, she holds you in her arms.”One day, while performing the exorcism, addressing the demon, he said: “Look at the beautiful face of Our Lady.” He replied: “I do not see, it is dark, it is dark, it is dark for me. I do not want to, and I cannot bear it. It is my fall, it is my fall, it is my fall from eternity. I hate her, I hate her, I hate her.”In other exorcisms, he uttered the following phrases: «I cannot look into those eyes! I cannot bear to look at them! I cannot! They are indescribable! This beauty is indescribable! She is all holiness, but I am all accursed. She is all beauty, and I am all ugliness. She grew in the fullness of grace, I grew in the fullness of death. She is full of grace! She is holy, she is holy! That one is holy, and she takes my souls (and here he wept). Look, look, look at the radiance of a child’s gaze and you will see the purity of Mary, the purity, the purity and love of Mary» (this was one of the rare times, amidst terrible contortions, that he pronounced Mary’s name).Another time, using evident metaphorical language, he said: «Every time she descends to this earth (referring to Our Lady) we sink deeper. Each of her tears is a hole in our ‘skin’. Each of her glances is a tear in our ‘brain’. Each of her steps is our end. We try to stop her, we cannot, because she is more powerful than us. Evil has no power over her».A few days before the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception in 2010, while he was exorcising him, the demon, filled with great fear, exclaimed: «That radiant woman is in this room». Then, in the name of Jesus, I commanded him to describe her, and he spoke thus:«She is entirely wrapped in a celestial mantle that reaches to her feet. She has a completely white tunic. She has a beautiful face whose gaze I cannot hold, and she smiles at you. Her hands are joined. She wears a crown of twelve stars glowing. Around her waist is a white cord to which is tied that chain (the Rosary). She is on a cloud and she is telling you: ‘Do not worry, I am here with you and I will help you’».To deepen your Marian theology, consult Pope John Paul II’s encyclical Redemptoris Mater on Mary’s role in the life of the Church.Deepen your studies: explore Mariology, Marian Theology, Marian Apparitions and the Post-Graduate Studies in Mariology.
