     The Di Vinci Code by Dan Brown is one of those rare page-turners like Jurassic Park and The Search for Red October.  For those familiar with the Templars, Holy Grail (not what you might think), Priory of Scion, Opus Dei, Rosslyn Chapel, and other bits of ancient lore and legend, you will find this book irresistible.  It has been on the NY Times Bestseller for months, and is the most talked about book of the year.

     From the Publisher:  While in Paris on business, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon receives an urgent late-night phone call: the elderly curator of the Louvre has been murdered inside the museum. Near the body, police have found a baffling cipher. While working to solve the enigmatic riddle, Langdon is stunned to discover it leads to a trail of clues hidden in the works of Da Vinci -- clues visible for all to see -- yet ingeniously disguised by the painter.

     Langdon joins forces with a gifted French cryptologist, Sophie Neveu, and learns the late curator was involved in the Priory of Sion -- an actual secret society whose members included Sir Isaac Newton, Botticelli, Victor Hugo, and Da Vinci, among others.

     In a breathless race through Paris, London, and beyond, Langdon and Neveu match wits with a faceless powerbroker who seems to anticipate their every move. Unless Langdon and Neveu can decipher the labyrinthine puzzle in time, the Priory's ancient secret -- and an explosive historical truth -- will be lost forever.

     Love Without End is a “conversation with Jesus” that Jesus had with the book’s author, Glenda Green.  He manifested himself before her for the portrait of “The Lamb and the Lion”.  He is able to do extraordinary deeds by commanding the adamantine particles with His love.  He tells us “that love is who we are”, therefore love is not a commodity and it is not external to us.  His message is truly masterful and magnificently seamless that ranges from the clarification of the beatitudes to science to what is reality.   He teaches of the “One Spirit”, so how could it not be anything but a wholly integrated message? 

      You may ask, “how would I know these are Jesus’ words?”  Your heart will know almost instinctively.  In fact, he is constantly prodding us toward our heart and the sacred heart in the book, which is our “magnetic center” and our direct link to our creator.  If you love the Master and his message, then take your own journey to the infinite and to the love that you are.  www.lovewithoutend.com
