Chapter 9: Percy-ing the Veil 333<br />

and if the material we have uncovered is correct, then it means that everyone has<br />

been looking in the wrong places for the wrong things, for the wrong reasons.<br />

The deeper explanation is that the story of Jesus, as we have received it in the<br />

gospels, is a historicized and glossed myth that contains within it the clues to a<br />

certain “preparation” of the initiate for the function of the “descent” of the<br />

benevolent God, or, as Diodorus has put it, “a certain virtue or urano-diurnal<br />

force having assumed the form of a star”. In short, we find ourselves again<br />

thinking of Edward Leedskalnin and his spinning airplane seat, and the dance of<br />

the god of the Hyperboreans every nineteen years, according to some “scheduled”<br />

interaction between the three body system of the Sun, Moon and Earth, that<br />

facilitates a gravitational node as described by Jessup.<br />

Going back to Fulcanelli, we find that his discussion of the origins of the Gothic<br />

cathedrals is most interesting. He tells us that the term “gothic”, which imposed its<br />

rules on all the productions of the Middle Ages, from the twelfth to the fifteenth<br />

century, was not an inheritance of ancient Germanic peoples as many “experts”<br />

suppose, but was rather a production of the descendants of the Argotiers, or<br />

Argonauts. He then speaks of the journey to Colchos, the land of the Golden<br />

Fleece, and that art got is really art cot, or the art of light of the spirit. Fulcanelli<br />

then makes a most amazing remark:<br />

The fact is that there is neither chance nor coincidence nor accidental<br />

correspondence here below. All is foreseen, preordained, regulated; and it is not for<br />

us to bend to our pleasure the inscrutable will of Destiny. 233<br />

Again and again we find Fulcanelli suggesting the existence of a<br />

hyperdimensional reality in which our own world is “embedded”, and from which<br />

our reality takes its form as a shadow cast upon the cave wall described by Plato.<br />

As we continue to think in these terms, it becomes more and more apparent that<br />

this Great Work of the alchemists was essentially the process of becoming “free of<br />

the Matrix”, described in alchemical and allegorical terms.<br />

Fulcanelli then takes us through several remarks about the symbolism of the art<br />

cot, until he brings us to the ornamentation of the floors of cathedrals. Here, he<br />

connects us to Fomenko’s ideas by remarking that the art of ceramics had reached<br />

perfection, and the use of multi-colored marble, in the manner of the Byzantine<br />

mosaics, was also utilized. The Labyrinth at Chartres designated by Fulcanelli as<br />

La Lieue (the league) and Le Lieu (the place) is described, and finally he tells us<br />

that there used to be a scene of the combat of Theseus and the Minotaur at the<br />

center. He then remarks that the point is to make a connection between the mythohermetic<br />

meanings rather than to establish any connection to the famous<br />

constructions of antiquity, the labyrinths of Greece and Rome.<br />
