Fact or Fiction?

..the RLC mystery started with Sauniere and the search for a treasure. This may have an actuality or even may not. (although it is unlikely any 'treasure' is going to ever be found actualy at the Chateau). Either way, by design,it played its part and waved an almighty flag drawing attention, initially to RLC. HOWEVER, many years have now passed, and it is unavoidable not to notice strange goings on within the area around RLC, Perillos currently. Whatever the RLC mystery is in total, it now appears to be drawing attention to ITSELF...wether we like it or not, wether it sits easy with our favourite theory or desire or not, we have to face the very real possibility that it may involve intelligence not originating from this dimension and a physics far beyond our current quantum understanding. In short, dear friends, something of a cosmic design....

Callum, lovely to hear from you. Arcadia has been waiting for you; )

So tell us, of the mysteries in RLC, Perillos and Lincoln, which came first? Are they related, and if so how? If not, which is the true mystery? Your response will be graded like the rest of the essays and returned along with the other pop quizzes at the end of the trimester…; )

From what I know, I must place Perillos as the 'instigator' of all three, using RLC as a waving flag and as a springboard to lead, in turn, to Lincoln, England, at a designated time (now). (Henry Lincoln's name is pure irony, or, as some would prefer, evidence of the archetypal Cosmic Joker) Whilst a treasure of some description - and wouldn't it (literally) be far out ,if it were not of this world - may unearth at Lincoln, I can still believe the current state of play is now shifting focus onto the Perillos region. The mystery total could move focus again from there..or we may be nearer to an all round solution than we could hope fo? What if there is a connexion with Perillos and any find at Lincoln ? Again, I must reaffirm that a true understanding of what started life simply as the mystery of Rennes-le-Chateau may require a raised global consciousness - try as some may, we cannot keep it earth bound and compliant to rationale.

Cool. Thanks Callum. So what are the top 3 reasons why the mystery in Lincoln is related to the mystery in RLC? Please discuss; )

Well....1. RLC Parchment 1 decodes in its entirety at Lincoln Cathedral
2. RLC Parchment 2 decodes in its entirety at Lincoln Cathedral
3. The kneeling Magdalene bas-relief at the RLC church altar
reveals itself to be opposite SE corner of Lincoln Cathedral.
All demonstrable and checkable fact, wether we like it or not! (me included!) Beats me why the Sauniere Society say they cannot see the connexion with RLC. Are all their members visually challenged, or simply reluctant to let go of their chosen and preferred ideal that the 'treasure' is in France and France alone ?

I will once again add that in the beginning, it was the mystery of Sauniere. As he happened to be a priest of RLC, and they thought it had to be local (for he was a local village priest, who hardly seemed to travel), the mystery became not of Sauniere, but of RLC. But let us note that none of his predecessors lived in any luxury; only BS did. And since many years, specifically the French researchers know that BS travelled widely and even had Marie send fake letters pretending to be by him if an urgent was deemed to require a fast reponse, yet BS was not home. So they got a letter like "Apologies. Flat out with work. Need time to ponder your letter. Will get back to you asap. Love. BS."

Yet: we note that in the middle of the 14th century, landlords of a "miserable village" rise up to the highest ranks of Aragonese nobilities and ended up owning most of the region (the entire area around Perpignan was literally given to them over a relatively short time of space). So there is a clear parallel there already... and there are many more.

I think we should abandon references to mystery of RLC, and readdress it as mystery of BS.

I agree that it should be a case of first things first!
Incidentally, for the many who have either had experiences of the psychic or paranormal kind involving RLC (myself, reluctantly included) wouldn't the easiest and most obvious soltion be to try and contact Sauniere from beyond the grave and ask him what his game was!? (After all, there has been a big song and dance about the alleged John Lennon communication this year). Of all the commercial RLC books wrote and being written I'd have thought this would have been a great crass one 'What Sauniere told the Psychic - an explanation of the RLC mystery'.. The get out clause would be to claim that it couldn't be done as Sauniere has reincarnated and therefore is unavailable. Ho hum.
On a more serious note though, IS the entire Mystery what we refer to as 'Paranormal' ? Sauniere's reported experimentation with alchemy certainly invites us into an uncertain realm/s. Again, reluctantly, I must add that you cannot speak of RLC without its otherworldly connotations/connexions....what is required is being able to sort the wheat from the chaff. Like the earthly CIA, might the unseen be responsible for dis-information, too....?

Hey, thanks Callum. I appreciate you taking the time to give us the three reasons why the mystery of RLC (according to your research) is in fact related to Lincoln. Without giving away the essence of your books, a little more detail on your number 1 and 2 in particular would be excellent, if you had the time.

Let me see if I can get John from the Sauniere Society to join the debate.

Thanks again!

Thanks PhC. I like it. But are you saying that BS was the essence of the mystery? What about Boudet, Bigou, Coma, and the assonated one - Gelis?

Boudet and Gelis served at the same church in Durban, near Perillos, and BS was said to have visited there on occasion. Having visited the church in Durban quite recently, I can attest to the fact that it is an esoteric wonderland, full of symbolism. Curiously, it has the exact 'look' and 'feel' of Boudet's church in RLB. And Boudet appeared to have had some serious cash, which he is said to have donated to Marie... So the mystery, as it were, appears to be originating from the vicinity of Perpignan. The upcoming work of researcher Ben Jacob will drive this point home, I believe.

Thus, the question I continue to ask is, was BS a player or a pawn? What do you think?

Here's a possible hexagonal component to the design of Lincoln Cathedral. You would need a more accurate floorplan to confirm it. I'm sure the church officials would be less than pleased about this, the hexagram being a magical symbol from witchcraft. Needless to say, no ordinary Christian would design a church around this figure.

Thanks Jb1717 for that.. you've let the cat(hedral) out of the bag a bit there, I may say. Meanwhile, back to AG's request regarding a little more detail about the parchments. First off, , best to say its amazing that the decoding of them at Lincoln have led to an exact spot that was once contained with a church demolished in 1781, with no visual evidence of the church's existence today. Given that some say the Parchments are a worthless fake, it's all the more amazing. To business, albeit briefly;
Shepherdess, no temptation refers to the Queen pregnant statue of Eleanor of Castille high up on the SE corner of the Cathedral who looks directly over at the marker tomb located in the burial grounds of St Margaret, herself a shepherdess and patron of pregnant women. Like the pregnant shepherdess in Poussin's painting, here there is no sexual temptation. That Poussin and Teniers hold the key peace/piece...well, we have just mentioned Poussin's involvement via his Shepherds of Arcadia painting..in Teniers case it concerns his fabulous 50 painting within one, entitled 'The cabinet of Archduke Leopold'...in the centre of it all is a painting of St margaret with a GREEN drape hanging over the top right corner of her frame. The placename where we find our St Margaret's location is the GREEN! Not only does 'tenure' mean 'to hold' in French, but here we are looking at the word 'hold' as in 'to aim, to direct', for our pregnant statue gazes over directly at the tomb, her gaze is 'holding' the key piece. 681 is a reference to the Cathedral Sun Dial which is 30 foot up the buttress of the SE corner of the Transept...its numerals 6, 8 and 1 are strangely and deliberately spaced in a peculiar fashion. By this cross and horse of god , is found within the Cathedral, well hidden at the Choir Stalls, a carved depiction of a knight falling from a horse, the horse having its legs crossed. I complete this guardian demon refers to the famous Lincoln imp carved statue high upon the North Side of the Angel Choir...to complete him we must return to the Sun Dial and its Latin motto 'Pereunt et Imputantur'..'imp' being completed as 'Imputantur'. At Mid-day blue apples refers to the fact that at noon on 22nd July, the feast of the Magdalene, when the sun is at its height,its rays strike down and through the red and blue section of the central pane next to our pregnant statue, to create a dappling effect on the floor of the Cathedral (alongside her tomb) resembling blue apples. I checked this out only this year - it is precise!
To explain Parchment 2 we visit the statue of Grail poet Lord Tennyson within the Cathedral precincts and only a few hundred yards away from the marker tomb. There are two attached plaques, both laden with Grail clues ( including a zero meridian) but what we need tolook at is how the random letters ROI (French for King) and SION interlock acrostically. 'King and Sion'...to conclude that this treasure is death, where else to find death than at a burial grounds - the one of st Margaret which contains the lost treasure?
I hope this sheds some light on those of you unaware of the Lincoln Da Vinci Code, and I can add that although the above are not even the best indications, they are clearly related to RLC!

I forgot to ask...Jb1717..am I ok to put your geometry on my site and to show a few folk ? (not the Dean!)

Excellent summary Callum. Sounds compelling to me. And cool Hexagon JB. You guys are going to sort this out I can see that!

Sure, you can use the image. This single version may be better- http://img130.imageshack.us/img130/1506/linchexxn6.jpg

Isn't that question 18 ??

BS was a pawn, who became a player... Mysteries linked with churches would be the normal domain of the priest. I believe BS made some discoveries in RLC, after which Gelis and/or Boudet demanded him to apply his knowledge to Perillos. Both sites (as well as so many others, like eg NDdM) are based on geological faultlines. BS was the "expert" they could consult, and they did, and he came up with the model.

I note someone else wrote the model should be turned "inside out". A NEGATIVE needs to be taken, which is not exactly "turning it inside out". Furthermore, I note the model is just one part of the evidence: the other is the Courtade document.

And I note that negatives were popular at the time, such as, for example, the TURIN SHROUD... a BURIAL shroud, quite intriguing in the light of the cult of the dead.

I think that Isaac's book will indeed clearly show the framework in which these people operated. It is that framework (La Sanch) that leads the way to Perillos, if only because the Perillos were instrumental in the foundation of La Sanch in the 15th century.

Um, whose counting?

18, indeed!
