Synopses & Reviews
From royal and suppressed archives comes documented proof of the heritage of Jesus in the West and the long awaited discovery of the Holy Grail. In fulfilling this time-honored quest, penetrating new light is cast upon the Grail Code of Service and the venerated feminine element, upheld in chivalry but forsaken by the Church in order to forge a male dominated society.
This unique work offers revelatory insight concerning the descendant heirs of Jesus and his brother James while, in documenting a hidden legacy of the Messiah, it unveils hitherto guarded facts about characters such as Mary Magdalene and Joseph of Arimathea. Tracing the sacred lineage through centuries of persecution and Inquisition, Bloodline of the Holy Grail reveals a systematic suppression of authentic records and a strategic manipulation of the New Testament Gospels.
Featuring all the charm and adventure of Arthurial romance, coupled with enthralling Rosicrucian and Templar disclosures, this extraordinary work has a cutting edge of intrigue that removes the established blanket of enigma to expose one of the greatest conspiracies ever told.
Synopsis
Did Jesus marry and have children? Are his descendants still alive? Has the religious establishment repressed the true teachings of Jesus? Almost twenty years ago, the worldwide bestseller, The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail made a number of controversial speculations about a "Messianic lineage." Yet the authors could offer no real proof, since their access to relevant source material was restricted. At last, the truth comes out!
This extraordinary and controversial book begins where others ended. Laurence Gardner has been granted privileged access to European Sovereign and Nobel archives, and to chivalric and church repositories. Based on this research, he gives a detailed account of the authentic line of succession of the Blood Royal (from the sons of Jesus and his brother James) and the ruthless attempts by the religious authorities to suppress information of the truth about Jesus and his secret teachings.
