Hello people, tonight in a documentary I saw the Holy Grail.
Ha!, you say, we heard that one before.













SPOILER WARNING!

Anyone making it his life's task seeking the Holy Grail,
or seeking the Philospher's Stone should stop reading now!
















Recently an overlooked inscription on the base of the "Holy Grail of Valencia" has been found: they are arabic letters, which have been translated as "Lapis Exilis".

That means that the simple stone base cup of the vessel is the Philosopher's stone, or Holy Grail. I could now write a book about this Earth shattering discovery, but I'm too busy otherwise.

The age and provenance of the stone vessel has the right credentials.
The Holy Grail is not recognized by the Vatican as having mystical powers, although the first popes celebrated mass with it.

What is interesting, is that the base of the vessel is identified as being the vessel of the last supper, bearing the Arabic inscription. The simple stone vessel can be traced to the year 250, when it was given to the church. The vessel is identified as coming from between 50 BC to 50 AD.


This image I have rotated, so that the real "Holy Grail" is on the top. You must imagine this without the gold-encrusted embellishments. Carpenters had no money for them.

The church then incorporated the "Grail" into the chalice of Valencia, and the popes sipped their wine from the wrong end. It is like (unwittingly) turning a cross upside down and kissing it.

Therefore: here are a few links (I have not found a picture of the difficult to find and decipher Arabic lettering, which are the clincher in this story:

Rosslyn Templars Org.

Wolfram von Eschenbach, The stone from the stars

The Holy Grail in the Cathedral of Valencia

All other claims worldwide have been dispelled so far, with the exception of this one. And, for the Indiana Jones fans - it's not meant to be wooden, it's meant to be made of stone.

Spanish academic revives speculation about authenticity of the Holy Grail

Even more peculiar things get when we know that the Holy Cup ('Santo Cáliz') from the cathedral of Valencia has an Arabic inscription that is read as 'alabsit sillîs' which comes close to our 'lapsit exillis'."

Only problem i have with the links you provided was that they have some bias in presenting this view.
But it does seem after some further digging that most scholars agree that the Holy Chalice residing in the Saint Mary of Valencia Cathedral has the best credentials.
Has it had further testing since 1960 as to its age for verification. If not we are relying on a nearly 50year old inspection.

Holy Chalice

After an inspection in 1960, the Spanish archaeologist Antonio Beltrán asserted that the cup was produced in a Palestinian or Egyptian workshop between the 4th century BC and the 1st century AD. The surface has not been dated by microscopic scanning to assess recrystallization.


I thought that the comparison of the Grail legend to the Celtic myth of the Cauldron of Dagda made a lot of sense when i read it a few years ago (writing this from memory so i think thats correct, i'll try to find some links).
Most of the grail legends seem to appear after about the 7th century AD which is why i personally think it is just that, a legend and not an actual artifact.

Nice post though.

The Philosophers Stone is a material or something to that effect, that causes the transmutation of common metal to gold. If you have some philosophers stone you can use it to trigger the transmutation.

This is alchemy, not religion (unless you wish to mix the two, which would also be appropriate given that Christianity became what it is today by making concessions to the traditions of the pagan cultures, including sorcery, or alchemy....the magic of the ancient world).

I have read that the alchemists' concept of "lead to gold" was never intended to be taken literally. That it was a metaphor for using 'sorcery' to get rich and powerful. I can't remember where I read it but it was suggesting that all along it was some kind of formula for a fiat economy - money from nothing, and that this was perfected and set in motion with the institution of the Federal Reserve. It went on to talk about the whole thing being based on the American dollar, and how every single one dollar bill is actually a worthless talisman, giving the bearer or receiver the 'illusion' that he has "money".

Sorry to go off-topic but it's not too many degrees removed, depending on how tedious you want to be.

Hey Scientist, you wanna pass that "grail" this way?

WHAT? we're just having communion with the Lord!
