DA VINCI CODE

I have re-published this post on the Da Vince Code after my friend felt it was discrete and a bit confusing. I am happy that the movie on Da Vinci Code that failed to make an impression in my mind as I expected has atleast made people think on who Magadalene actually was and what was the grail all about.

According to the da vinci code and other related books on Mary magadalene,

1. There were papers written in the period of christ which are said to be missing. Not to forget the Dead sea scrolls

2. The knights who safe guarded the papers had become unimaginably rich, richer than the kings themselves at a certain point of time.

3. The successors of the knights, the priory members were all intelligent than other men of their time. (Consider Newton, consider Da vinci).

4. People term the grail as a way to eternity, because either it is beleived so or books written after christ in the medeival period say so.

The papers could have carried some important messages or formulae that might be of great scientific importance, something like the laws of gravity, escape velocity etc., along with specific information on the life of christ, mary magadalene, and other information pertaining to the age.

I have reasons for my view on the grail. Today in this world of science, its known that a few people are ready to bet their fortunes for the grail, they go behind it with all they have and there should certainly be a reason worth more than relegious beliefs.

A few points strengthened my view. The knights were said to be great in architecture and planning in which they were no good earlier. Many churches have been built which are considered to be architectural wonders involving stone erections on ceilings. da vinci himself has left behind the basic structure of a vehicle probably an air plane which can escape the gravitational pull of earth. Sir Newton came up with the laws of motion and the equations of escape velocity which were not given a thought iin his time.

I do beleive in Christ and I have deep interests in Da vinci and his works while I have always admired Sir Issac Newton and his works. Its just that I have put up my views on the historical controversy. And I do have to mention that I did not intend to hurt the religious feelings of anybody.
