Rosslyn - Guardian Of The Secrets Of The Holy Grail

Save your money
SAVE YOUR MONEY. Since reading The DaVinci Code I have been in search of the "grail" of info about the Templars and their relationship to Rosslyn Chapel. In spite of the title of the book listing Rosslyn prominantly it barely touches on it. I had hoped to learn the meaning(s) of the statues and the carvings. Forget it. These 2 writers(they collaborated) regularly use unfounded rumors to jump to what they then treat as irrefutable fact. For example they say that when Robert the Bruce,King of Scotland, defeated the English King it was rumored that horse mounted knights entered the field of battle just as Robert's forces were about to be defeated............note I say it was rumored. They built upon that and say in the book that the knights were Knights Templar and they galloped head long into battle and right for the hill where the English king and his generals were watching the fight. Fearing capture, the English king fled and his troops seeing him leave fled also. What a leap to a conclusion. Now for the humor. If these 2 didn't have the words esoteric,enigmatic,gnostic,and apocalyptic in their vocabulary they could not have written this book. They use one of or all of these words at least every 3 pages. All in all this book was a lot of phony mumbo jumbo,such as Jesus was a twin...........now that's a new one.......and darn little about Rosslyn Chapel. What a dis-service to those who bought the book.

Fascinating!
I visited Rosslyn Chapel while on a tour of Scotland. The history of it fascinated me with its supposed connections to the Knights Templar. The chapel interior is covered with incredibly ornate and curious carvings and a pillar with so many mysterious symbols. This book is greatly interesting to anyone who is intrigued with such things.

Thought provoking masterpiece.
I sought out this book to try to let me make sense of my faith and what this dysfunctional Pope and the other discredited Christian leaders are trying to do. They try to rewrite scripture to fit the modern narrative. This is way above their pay grade Scripture is Gods word alone. This book gave me an insight into the Christian world and the closeness of all three main religions ie Christianity, Islam and Judaism. It was a brilliant insight !

Nunca lo había hecho!
Era la primera vez, comprando libros usados de Amazon, y estoy contento con el descripción del vendedora y el servicio.En cuanto al libro y el contenido Excelente!! sin duda.Brindo y animo compra de los libros usados por toda la ventaja que conlleva, si opta, por libros físicos en lugar de digitales.
