Review of Philip Gardiner’s The Ark, The Shroud, and Mary DVD
Once again, Philip Gardiner has enlightened viewers with his correlations uniting separate religious icons into cohesive alignment. The Ark, the Shroud, and Mary provides the perfect revelatory vehicle to show closer alliance of three of the most treasured symbols of Christianity.
As Gardiner researched the links of Gnostic, Judaic, Vedic, Islamic, and Christian references to ancient knowledge cults, he noticed amazing pictorial similarities in vessels used to carry the “Laws of God” to the people. Those arks, or vessels of higher consciousness, became the focus of his search in determining whether the legendary Ark of the Covenant actually existed or was merely a mythical representation used to convey sacredness to the masses, and divert attention from genuine artifacts concealed from the opposing powers of the time.
According to Gardiner’s theory, while the Old Testament’s Ark of the Covenant supposedly held God’s laws and covenant with the Hebrews as lead by Moses, the Virgin Mary became the New Testament vessel for the new Law Giver—Jesus. Symbolism and metaphor play heavily into the legends or both vessels, with the Shroud representing the remnant of God’s radiance still lingering on earth for the faithful to worship.
This DVD represents another milestone for Gardiner in aligning ancient iconic symbolism with a cross-religions perspective. Worth viewing many times.
