The Doctrine of the Blessed Virgin Mary simplified. In order to worship the Lord Jesus you MUST  honor His Mother. To put simply Know Mother Mary know Lord Jesus.  Resources: I recommend the Following authors: St. John Eudes, St. Louis de Montfort, and St. Alphonsus Liguori. For visions about the Blessed Mother by Catholic Mystic's: Ven. Maria de Jesus de Agreda and Bl. Anne Catherine Emmerich. I HIGHLY recommend the devotions to the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
