The Lost Symbol : Dan Brown

Yet another wonderful and bold novel from Dan Brown. http://www.thelostsymbol.com/main.html

Best part is, that atleast for the beginning; I could listen to the audio.

Authentic imagination, bold questitons, thought provoking views, which makes it difficult to put down the book or stop thinking of all that is said in there. Tapestry of veiled histories, arcane icons and enigmatic codes, intelligent lightning-paced thriller, that offers surprises at every turn.

Have turned out to be a great fan of Robert Langdon.

To live in the wold without becoming aware of the meaning of the world is like wandering about in a great library without touching the books. The secret teaching of all ages.

Blythe! Elohim!

The Lost Symbol is a masterstroke of storytelling--a deadly race through a real-world labyrinth of codes, secrets, and unseen truths... all under the watchful eye of Brown's most terrifying villain to date. Set within the hidden chambers, tunnels, and temples of Washington, D.C., The Lost Symbol accelerates through a startling landscape toward an unthinkable finale.

As the story opens, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is summoned unexpectedly to deliver an evening lecture in the U.S. Capitol Building. Within minutes of his arrival, however, the night takes a bizarre turn. A disturbing object--artfully encoded with five symbols--is discovered in the Capitol Building. Langdon recognizes the object as an ancient invitation... one meant to usher its recipient into a long-lost world of esoteric wisdom.

When Langdon's beloved mentor, Peter Solomon--a prominent Mason and philanthropist--is brutally kidnapped, Langdon realizes his only hope of saving Peter is to accept this mystical invitation and follow wherever it leads him. Langdon is instantly plunged into a clandestine world of Masonic secrets, hidden history, and never-before-seen locations--all of which seem to be dragging him toward a single, inconceivable truth.

As the world discovered in The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons, Dan Brown's novels are brilliant tapestries of veiled histories, arcane symbols, and enigmatic codes. In this new novel, he again challenges readers with an intelligent, lightning-paced story that offers surprises at every turn. The Lost Symbol is exactly what Brown's fans have been waiting for... his most thrilling novel yet.

Excerpts:

The guardian angel who conquered your enemy in battle was perceived by your enemy as a demon destroyer.

(Sad that all that was typed is lost first!)

It is far easier to destroy; than to create.

Religion: ABC:
Assure Salvation
Belive in precise theology
Convert non belivers

Know ye not ye are Gods! Plural!

WHAT WE HAVE DONE FOR OURSELVES ALONE DIES WITH US, WHAT WE HAVE DONE FOR OTHERS AND THE WORLD REMAINS AND IS IMMORTAL.

Cornerstones are laid on the northeast corner, because that is where the first ray of light falls.

Dont go by the literal meanings: "Both read the bible day and night, But thou read black, where I read white".

Religious texts are old stores fabricated by man and then exaggerated over time.

You do have the capability, but you'll need enormous amount of practice to manifest it.

Gather what is scattered; bring order from chaos to find at-one-ment.

Science-Faith-Man.
Every Culture-Country-Time has CREATOR; But with Different Names-Faces-Prayers.

Hope!
