−Description−
An enigmatic secret of a dying Rabbi. Alphabet code visions in an underground Chamber. Murders between the ruins of an Ancient Temple. A battle with the evil side. Secret of the Tau: Death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Two French Knight Templars riding fast on rocky mountainous trails against time and rainy night to catch up with the last breath of their dying master - a Jewish Rabbi with a mysterious alleged historical secret in the city of Troyes, France, 1105 AD.
Four young people visit the ancient city of Byblos, Lebanon, Present time. They unexpectedly meet up with two young girls, an Archeologist and an Alchemist, working on the site. Something strange happens, driving them to an underground archaic chamber. A Cedar wooden box resting on an altar magically opens up and letters of an ancient Alphabet emerge out, taking them into a distant past; each letter with a vision!
Meanwhile, an Architect and an Archeologist die in an obscure unexpected way between the ruins of the Ancient Temple. The Police suspected Zago, a member of the group. However, Paul survives the strength of the visions and the pressure of the investigations while others did not. He continues the journey alone where he faces his dark side in the eighteenth letter, ‘Tsaddi’. He fails!
Rescued by Youssef, an adept of a secret society, the Keepers of the Word, Paul is then taught amazing secrets about the Galilean-Phoenician true identity of Jesus Christ, a fact that the Masonic brotherhood tries to keep buried. At the time, the underground agents of Seth Servitors hit once again, hard enough to murder a prominent member of the Keepers. Accordingly, the Police inquiries proceed further. With the help of the Keepers of the Word, Paul gets another chance to face his evil side once again. He wins this time.
After this transpires, Paul is baptized in the nineteenth letter, ‘Qoph’. He then witnesses with the final twenty-two letter ‘Tau’, the death and the resurrection of Jesus Christ - the archetype of the Kosmic Man. In view of that, he realizes that his journey is not but a journey of Initiation where divinity resides at the deepest and highest realm of his being.
−Fact−
The Great White Fraternity – An ancient fraternity founded around 1500 BCE, or even a few hundred years earlier. The Great White Fraternity was a monotheistic religion that began to function as an esoteric secret society in Phoenicia, and was then immediately adopted by Egyptian Priests. There existed a great religious and spiritual connection between Egypt and Phoenicia, and especially between Memphis and Gebel (Byblos). Egyptian Priests also adopted the story of Adonis and Astarte that had occurred in Gebel, and identified the names of these divinities with those of their own, Osiris and Isis. The death of Osiris and his resurrection is the Egyptian version of the death and resurrection of the Geblite Adonis. In addition, the Phoenician’s belief in the One Most High God “Al-Elyon” became the corner stone at the Temple of Akhenaton in Egypt, who initiated the preaching of One God Aton. Among the early prominent adepts of the Great White Fraternity were Pharaohs Thutmose III and Akhenaton of Egypt, as well as the Canaano-Phoenician kings, Melki-Sedek of Jerusalem, Ahiram of Gebel and Hiram - also known as Ahiram of Tyre. The Divine Messenger of the Great White Fraternity was Enoch-Tautus. Enoch (Anak) the Canaano-Phoenician became a Metatron - the chosen one who stood before God. The Father of the spiritual laws was also identified as Thot-Tautus in the Egyptian religion. He was also Mithra for the Hindus and the Persians; Enki/Ea in Mesopotamia; Nebo in the Babylonian mythology; Quetzalcohuatl for the Mexican Mayas; Thor in the Scandinavian tradition; Hermes-Kadmos for the Greeks and Mercury for the Romans. He was Adam-Kadmon for the Kabbalists, Edris for the Arabs and Muslims, and recently Enoch for the Druzes. He was also the god of Wisdom, Science and the occult teachings.
The Keepers of the Word – A physically non-existent movement in the real sense of the word. It is not an organized entity. However, there are an increasing number of people in the world today who believe that the message of Jesus Christ in the New Testament was a spiritual and social revolution against the God of the Old Testament. That would be the reason for the crucifixion that led to the Resurrection - the real aim of the divinity of Jesus. Martin Luther wrote in Christian Liberty, “Therefore the Promises of God belong to the New Testament. Indeed, they are the New Testament.”
All historical information on art, architecture and masonry are the fruit of serious and intensive research. All quotations from the Old and New Testament are accurate. The three maps at the end of the book are authentic.
−Synopsis−
When on a stormy night in 1105 AD, two mysterious knights rode against time to catch the secrets of a dying rabbi, a turning point in the history of nations was about to unfurl. How dangerous was that legacy that would instigate an obscure organization thirteen years later in Jerusalem? And, when that order was officially recognized by the Church, as the Guardians of the Grail, a crucial question arose: Which Grail?!
Almost nine centuries later, the echoes of the Ancients beckoned Paul and his friends to explore Gebel, the Canaano-Phoenician city of seven millennia. An ancient Stone with bizarre Phoenician inscriptions leads them to a mysterious underground chamber where their fascinating adventure begins. With the Alphabet emerging out of a mysterious Cedar box, a phenomenon of glorious light conveys them through time and space into a sequence of exceptional revelations.
Night after night, each letter discloses its secret. From the revelation of the Father-Light, and the emergence of the Kosmic energy and matter, to the beginning of the odyssey and the manifestation of the Spirits of Nature, the Alphabet exposes Moses in the Egyptian desert, the Ark of the Covenant and the Temple of Solomon in a time when holy books have registered in the collective memories of nations.
On returning to the present, the mornings bring Paul and his friends to the same cafeteria where the owner, Youssef, informs them of the Sarcophagus of King Ahiram of Gebel. Although interested in its mystery, the team was taken aback after they learned of two obscure murders directly linked to the same ancient tomb. Tension arose among them and vigilance prevailed.
With the visions continuing every night, the Seekers of Truth, Paul and his friends, penetrate a world upon a world of insights. They live the greed of the traders, heed the message of Jesus against the iniquitous bankers, experience a bloody thirst for power and lust for desire, witness the misuse of religious powers, deal with the Old Serpent of Wisdom and Immortality, and relish in the Sacred Lake of Remembrance.
However, their journey stopped abruptly and dramatically with the disappearance of their friend Zago who became a suspect of the recent murders. Frightened, the team abandoned Paul who prevailed, courageously alone, in his journey of initiation through the Mystery of the Alphabet. Meeting the sage Kadmus, the Guardian of the Alphabet, in the eleventh vision, instigated a fascinating experience. Kadmus taught Paul the power and wisdom of the Alphabet occult doctrine, the Kabala, which symbols are the secret keys and absolute principles of the Universe. The upsurge of Monotheism in Egypt and Canaan-Phoenicia, as opposed to the dualism of the Hebrew Jehovah, Yod-Hevah, was tackled. A new revelation awaited Paul at the Sacred River of Life where he met Anat-Astarte, the Virgin Lady who has existed since ancient histories as the bearer of the savior; a theological concept seen in Hinduism, Buddhism and Christianity, and with the Egyptians, Phoenicians and the Greeks. Paul witnessed the beginning of a new era with the birth of the Children of Prophesies out of a loving thought of the Universal Mind of the Father. At heeding the outcome of the defects of matter and spirit on the stability of the Human race, he understood that hope lays on the Children of Prophesies who form the pillars of God’s Justice and Mercy and support the equilibrium of Earth.
But Paul was not at the end of his discoveries. When the Altar of the Great Temple of life disclosed the life-cycle of the Phoenix and the Kosmic resurrection of humans, he decides to take a break and visits his friend, Padre Joseph, who confirmed to him the belief of Christianity in reincarnation as per the New Testament. More determined than ever for deeper knowledge, Paul returns to the Mystery Chamber where he faced his own dark side, personified by evil, in the fiery vision of Tsaddi. Terrorized into revealing the secret word, Paul loses consciousness and was later revived by Youssef at the ruins of the Ancient Temple.
His convalescence brings him closer to Youssef, who disclosed his undercover mission for the Keepers of the Word; a secret society that deemed Paul their long-awaited fifth element. Thus, Paul joins the Great White Fraternity; a brotherhood initiated by Hermes-Enoch-Tautus, the founder of the First Religion. Inside their secluded fortress, outstanding revelations were exposed with factual truth on the Holy Grail; the cup of the last supper filled with the blood of Jesus at the cross. The Keepers reveal the hidden motives behind the Crusades by the deceitful Knights of Solomon’s Temple, the Knights Templar. Referring to precise details in the New Testament, the Keepers attest to the rightful spiritual role of Mary Magdalene, demonstrate the origin of Jesus-Christ and his Phoenician-Galilean Royal Bloodline, not Jewish as traditionally believed, and submit authentic maps showing another Bethlehem in Phoenicia to support the argument (displayed below). It also reveals that Mary, the mother of Christ, is originated from the village of Kana (Cana), in Ancient Lebanon, where the first miracle happened at the wedding of Kana - the transformation of water into wine. A serious analysis of historical facts emphasized the manipulation of the Old Testament by the Babylonian Brotherhood, later known as the Freemasons. Once such a shock was absorbed, Paul was initiated into the Tradition of Hermes, the authentic Kabala, as opposed to the distorted Chaldean and Hebrew Kabala. The Keepers warned him against the Seth Servitors who were persecuting their Society for ages in search for the secret word and the true Grail which the Keepers have sworn to keep forever protected. With all these revelations in mind, Paul was able now to understand the full meanings of his previous visions.
Ready then to complete his journey of initiation, Paul was asked to undertake his final test for the fulfillment of his destiny. Hence, he must conquer Tsaddi. Victorious out of the terrible battle that ensued, Paul proceeded into the last phases with the four remaining letters. Spiritualized by Kadmus through the rite of acceptance into the Kingdom of the Inner Deity, he faces his own personified ego where he tackled the evolution of man into divinity. He then witnessed a ritual of Melki-Sedek, the Priest of the Most High, who revealed the final truth that conveyed him to the last vision in the Sacred Tau; the Cross. Here, Paul beholds the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus, which profound meanings are a new stunning revelation. At the end of his journey, Paul realizes that every human being is called to reveal his true divine nature and become a Kosmic Man… like Jesus Christ!
More than just an anti-thesis to the Da Vinci Code, The Phoenician Code is a fiction novel based on astounding historical and religious facts and enhanced with philosophical analysis on life, human weaknesses, divinity and sublimation. Manipulated by the underground lobby since the coming of Christ, and revealed today by The Phoenician Code, those hidden facts come to light to reassess some major realities. The storyline conveys the main character into a journey of initiation where he tackles some major issues, like ignorance, revenge, war, wealth, lust, envy, greed and ambition for power, which prevent him from discovering what he really is: A divine being!
