SPOILER WARNING
Everyday we get to read of bad things in newspapers. People murdering , robbing , raping others. Sometimes it gets me to wonder. .. have people forgotten that theres a God watching over all of us.
Has humanity taken it for granted that nothings gonna happen even if they do wrong... that if they can fool the cops .. they can sleep soundly at night.
When I started reading the book , it grasped me like any other murder mystery but as I gradually went ahead with the book, the spiritual side lit up. Although I am a decent God fearing man , but I cannot call myself very religious ... and definitely not a biliever in religious leaders. We tend to forget that God is watching us right now ....the same instinct which led to the fall of Adam and Eve from Heaven according to the Bible ....they forgot that God would know what they were doing .
This book gave me goosebumps as I read it and it made me question the verybasic human instinct that tends to prevail in all of us ....Is someone from HIS side present here on earth , someone I may or maynot have met but some who needs to be paid a lot of respect , after all He/ She is from the gods side.
As the story begins a murder inside the Louvre and clues in Da Vinci paintings lead to thediscovery of a religious mystery protected by a secret society for twothousand years -- which could shake the foundations of Christianity. The very fact that a secret organisation called the Priory of Sion who had been guarding a secret for thousands of years, a secreat which could change the way christanity exists today if it gets out in the open.
It figures a mention of the Holy Grail. Unlike the popular belief , the book mentions that the Holy Grail was not a Cup Jesus drank from , rather it was a complex theory. In ancient times the male symbol was represented as " ^ " and the female as " V " ... this shape was that of a womb.
A close look at " The Last Supper" would reveal that the person sitting right next to Lord Jesus on the left hand side is not a man, she doesnt have a beard and a moustache , has a hint of bossom and a closer look at it would reveal that she might be pregnant as well. But yes , no denying the fact that in a painting that old, one could end up seeing what one wants to. Who is she ... why was it covered up all these years .... would be the questions that would haunt our minds at this point of time !
She was Mary Madeline. The supposed wife of Jesus Christ who was supposedly bearing his child at that time. The wife who was made to go away in a hush hush as Jesus was being crusified.
This womb ..the womb of Mary Madeline was the Holy Grail. It comtained the "holy blood" ... the blood line of Jesus Christ.
The fact which could easily lead to her murder and that of her child if the Romans found out and also if the Christians did at a later stage. The Church at that time was pretty rigid and would do anything to keep it a secret including killing anyone from the Christ’s bloodline to destroying Mary Madeline’s tomb. It also lead to secreat missions some fanatic Christians were sent on to narrow down and slay all the Priory of Sion members who could , in future be a threat to Christianity if the secreat were to be let out.
A list containing all the members of the Sion till a particular time includes famous names such as Sir Isac Newton , Victor Hugo and Leonardo Da Vinci himself.
Going on with the book will involve a series of betrayals and murders on the name of religion an eventually will end with the holy grail and the right person in the blood line.
It is an absolute entertainer ..... still remains a theory based on some facts though !
A must read for the people who are interested in either history or Christianity or both !
Check out the details in the last supper itself .
