The Ggreat Ggrail Hunt - The Da Vinci Code, The Last Supper & The Holy Grail

Discover the location of
Da Vinci's Grail
where it has always been
but isn't suppose to be —
in Da Vinci's The Last Supper!

Over on the ever-goofy Grouchogandhi myspace page, I'm playing a little game of Find-the-Grail during the pre-hype build-up for the release of The Da Vinci Code flick.

A revelation in Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code makes the point the Holy Grail is not present in Da Vinci's painting, The Last Supper, because the Grail is actually something else, Mary Magdalen. The heroes view this information as poignant proof to further their self-conceived conspiracy theory that they're on the right track.

Sophie paused, realizing it was the trick question. And after dinner, Jesus took the cup of wine, sharing it with His disciples. "One cup," she said. "The chalice." The Cup of Christ. The Holy Grail. "Jesus passed a single chalice of wine, just as modern Christians do at communion."

Teabing sighed. "Open your eyes."

She did. Teabing was grinning smugly. Sophie looked down at the painting, seeing to her astonishment that everyone at the table had a glass of wine, including Christ. Thirteen cups. Moreover, the cups were tiny, stemless, and made of glass. There was no chalice in the painting. No Holy Grail.

I resolve that I will present to you absolute proof that the above contention is not only wrong, but flat-out false. The Holy Grail is indeed in The Last Supper and you will see it. FACT!

The rules are simple. I'll slowly dribble out vague and odd clues as to the "hidden" location of the Holy Grail in Da Vinci's The Last Supper over on the Grouchogandhi myspace page. These Step-by-Step items will usually hyperlink to other web sites for depth of vision to aid you in your attempt to locate it on your own if you so choose.

If some worthy soul doesn't comment the secret location to everyone beforehand, all will be revealed on May 18th. This way you'll have a neat trick to pull on everyone you know who goes to see the movie.

Have fun!
