THE HOLY GRAIL IS ONE of the most powerful myths in Western
Culture. At the centre of this myth is the story of the chalice
containing the Holy Blood of Christ, shed when Longinus pierced his
side at the crucifixion. The search for the Grail has inspired
artists and mystics for hundreds of years. Many churches and
cathedrals were built on sites that claimed their part in this
sacred mystery.
IMBUED WITH THE SPIRIT OF the ancient quest and aware of its
power as an antidote to our modern spiritual malaise, Ean and Deike
Begg travelled throughout Europe, researching sites of the Holy
Grail, the Precious Blood and their associated myths. This book is
an illustrated account of their search and a practical, informative
guidebook for travellers and seekers. It is full of fascinating
information, such as the name of the Spanish cathedral that holds
the cup of the Last Supper, the story of how a fig tree carried the
Precious Blood to France and the secrets of the Grail castles of
Germany.
'I believe that Ean and Deike Begg have done something of great
importance in exploring the myth of the Holy Grail that played such
a vital part in the deeps of Jung's spirit, and in re-establishing
how now it is still one of the most dynamic elements in the search
of the lost and bewildered modern soul for wholeness.'-Sir Laurens
van der Post
'Deike and Ean Begg have revitalized the idea of
pilgrimage.'-Michael Baigent
'An exemplary and vividly written guide to the many strange and
beautiful sites associated with the Grail quest throughout
Europe.'-Count Nikolai Tolstoy
