Leonardo da Vinci's secret
Good morning and welcome to mundodesconocido.es
This man you see here, as all of you might guess, is Leonardo Da Vinci.
A colorful figure who lived during the 15th and 16th century.
He was born in Florence and he was also a very multi-faceted person.
One of the most brilliant minds of that time.
He was practically everything: he was a painter, anatomist, arquitect, botanist and even sculptor, as some sources say.
He invented many artifacts and devices which are used even nowadays.
He was also a poet and  practiced urbanism.
He practically did everything.
But Da Vinci's life has a very little known facet.
The main surprise begins to appear when he is related with a strange, elitist group called the Priory of Sion.
The Priory of Sion lives hidden from the public eye and it is the political arm of the ancient Templars, who disappeared long ago.
The fact is that he is referred in those controversial writings as Grand Master Leonardo.
But Leonardo leaves a lot of clues in his work that were compilated in the film "The Da Vinci Code".
Those codes that he left and that appear in the film, are just a very small part of what in reality exists
There is a peculiar detail that Leonardo used to do  in his paintings and has not trascended so much.
And that's something very interesting.
Leonardo was a big scholar of symmetry and shapes; he knew that in shapes and symmetry existed a kind of magic, and knew that he could hide some clues in those shapes and symmetry.
For instance, the portrait of Leonardo himself. If we make the mirror image of it, and superimpose both of them,  look, what a surprise.
Look at what appears in this image,
But the question we ask is: what happens if we do this with other paintings?
Let's get to it...
This painting you see here is possibly one of the most emblematic ones of Leonardo.
the Mona Lisa
the Gioconda
translated into spanish would be "the happy one"..
but if we do the same operation we did with da Vinci's self-portrait
we also find the following surprise, observe...
This is another famous work of Leonardo, as well as one of the most misterious ones: The Annunciation, painted in 1472. It is said to be his first finished work.
By doing the same process as before, it comes out something strange: The Annunciation does not represent the Virgin, but some sort of priestess or female Pope,
which can be found with a great parallelism in tarot cards.
In tarot cards the meaning of the female Pope is the alchemical power. The spiritual and material power.
She carries a book which represents the Book of the Secrets and Wisdom.
It represents the knowledge of hidden science or initiation science.
Curious? casual? I don't believe so.
Anyway, let's get to other Leonardo's pieces of art.
This is one is the most well-known engravings of Da Vinci.
It seems to represent some kind of soldier, crusader with his armour and an austere, firm bearing.
A quite emblematic face.
However, if we proceed the same way as the previous ones, we get another surprise:
Observe carefully...
It represents a chalice, symbol of Mary Magdalene, inheritor of Christ's royal blood (Holy Grail)
This is another famous picture of Da Vinci.
Also one of the most emblematic.
It represents St. John the Baptist,
Even though it actually represents the god Baco.
If we look carefully, all the elements of Baco appear on it. In fact, the picture was always considered like that, as the representation of that god: Dionisios.
Perhaps it was said to be St. John the Baptist in order to cover it up from the eyes of the Church. In reality, if we make the same process, the following thing happens.
It is a grotesque, strange figure. Evil. Even obscene. That clearly reminds us that evil god or goddess called Kali.
The goddess Kali means destruction and chaos, as Dionisio does. She means what is chaotic, the unexpected danger and all that escapes from human reason.
something unforeseen....
We see that strange similarity.
Can we think that all of this is casual?
Where do all these traditions and gods come from? Which myth do they represent? What is all this? Could you think is it casual? Really?
Anyway, we leave you with the image of Leonardo Da Vinci.
We invite all of you to try to play this kind of "game" that Leonardo was up to,
even with other images and different engravings from these ones.
Surely you will be suprised.
And as always, without further ado, from mundodesconocido.es,
we´ll see you in the next video programme. See you soon!
