The Da Vinci Code

Special Issue No. 2 of New Dawn magazine brings together leading writers and researchers in the area of ancient mysteries, arcane symbolism, secret history and the hidden wisdom of the ages.

In April 2004, New Dawn magazine published its first special issue that explored the themes in Mel Gibson’s controversial film The Passion of the Christ and the run-away best selling novel The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown. The Da Vinci Code’s original mix of history, mystery, action, conspiracy, symbolism and suspense captivated the imagination of people around the world, while at the same time igniting heated debate and controversy.

Due to popular demand we published this collector’s edition of New Dawn, Special Issue No. 2, devoted to ancient mysteries, secret symbolism and forbidden wisdom.

Behind the familiar, everyday world we take so much for granted lies a reality few of us even suspect. Free your mind and enjoy the search for this hidden reality. You’ll discover truth is stranger and far more fascinating than fiction.

“Since the beginning of recorded time, history has been written by the ‘winners’ (those societies and belief systems that conquered and survived). Despite an obvious bias in this accounting method, we still measure the ‘historical accuracy’ of a given concept by examining how well it concurs with our existing historical record. Many historians now believe (as do I) that in gauging the historical accuracy of a given concept, we should first ask ourselves a far deeper question: How historically accurate is history itself?”
