As already suggested in this article, the art piece that Herschel had the greatest affinity with in his research on Leonardo Da Vinci, is the one that is referred to as ‘Vitruvian Man�?(shown above). To this very day, this great Renaissance artist’s portrayal of the human form has been considered to hold a hidden mathematical code as well as the already deciphered Fibonacci ratio (more commonly known as�?the Golden Mean). Herschel believes Da Vinci intentionally left out some ‘secret�?detail that defines extremely unique geometry beyond a mere square and a circle found in the human form, for reasons that the book explores.
It was Stonehenge that would provide Herschel with the true solution to ‘Vitruvian Man�? In deciphering the layout of this monument of aeons gone by, what would emerge for him was the theme of a man mimicking a star�?inside a star�?hence the name “star man�?as the author likes to refer to his discovery. When the human form mimics a star�?the unthinkable geometry is created
If the arms of ‘Vitruvian Man�?are moved into position directly over the head �?unlike how Leornardo Da Vinci had painted him �?not only does his form mimic a star�?but a unique pentagon comes into play
‘Star man�?/DIV>
The human form fits very mathematically into the centre of the stone circle at Stonehenge with the head positioned above the ‘altar�?stone. In a wider context�?the solution becomes even clearer�?because it turns out that Stonehenge and its surrounding monuments were designed as a star map of the heavens. A grouping of nearby manmade mounds replicates a prime star constellation explored in the author’s book, while the outer stone circle’s geometry is suggestive of the outline of a star in conjunction with two smaller mounds mimicking planets in orbit (see Stonehenge page). Herschel believes that because the shape of the human form is very ingeniously linked to the star that their pyramid star maps isolate (found also at two other ancient sites), it seems the ancient civilisations were trying to tell us that their ancestors�?the ‘gods�?came from one and the same star.
One cannot help asking: Is this star suggesting the place of origin of the human gene lineage? A lineage evolved somewhere else completely independent to any Earth evolving hominid?
Will Dan Brown propose a similar interpretation to this solution in his next book? It is highly unlikely�?especially since the pyramid star maps that became pivotal to Herschel’s decoding of the Da Vinci code, do not form part of the equation for Brown.
Universal design code?
On a more elevated level, Herschel believes this codex seems to be spelling out one very pertinent universal truth:
“It is definitely not a PENTAGRAM, but an unusual elongated PENTAGON�?and in its own right seems so perfect, as if it is shouting out that the human form is not entirely a creature evolved by chance through natural selection. Logically speaking, there has to be is a design code that life conforms to�?a life force originating from the central nucleus of the universe�?the place where all matter was created. The place of the One�?we call God!�?
“One could of course ascribe this to coincidence�?but then why is this very specific geometry encrypted into Stonehenge, Giza (see book) and the most awe inspiring place of all�?engineered into a five-sided man made mountain on Mars?�?
When Wayne Herschel released aspects of his findings to a newspaper in South Africa in 1999, he referred to it as the “Da Vinci Codex�? Notice, by chance the term he coined is slightly different to the title chosen by Dan Brown for his book.
Is this new codex part of a cosmic message? This has only been a cryptic analysis�?only once you’ve read the wider parameters ‘The Hidden Records�?deals with, will you be able to evaluate it against all the thought provoking evidence.
Updated 25th October 2004:
Reasons for the code being kept a tightly guarded secret
The message conveyed by the sketch seems to suggest that this sacred form is only part of an even deeper enigma. After all, why keep innocent mathematical geometry unique to the human form a secret? What if the geometry is part of a source of ‘forbidden�?knowledge that did not fit at all into religious teaching during the renaissance era?
Da Vinci seems to have guarded this secret for this very reason. However, this did not detract from the likelihood that he believed the code was of untold significance to humankind and should not be forgotten. Hence he ingeniously encoded it into some of his paintings.
But why would this knowledge have been so shocking for its time? Perhaps it claimed evidence of the place of human origins�?evidence of which does seem to exist, gauging by what Wayne Herschel has stumbled on in his research of the ancient civilisations. If Da Vinci had exposed this phenomenal revelation, it would have defied the holy books of his time. Was it worth being burnt at the stake for doing so? Perhaps this knowledge Da Vinci had, claimed we were the descendant lineage from visitors of human form who came from the stars, who possessed powers that would very quickly be relegated to witchcraft. When in effect, what these beings that came from above possessed, was technology. Technology that was so advanced, it could be misconstrued as something evil by commoners�?but certainly not by a genius such as Da Vinci.
If one goes by this train of reasoning, one cannot help but wonder if all of Da Vinci’s inventions were not really his ‘inventions�?per se, but reproductions of what he had been privileged to bare witness to. Records of the hi-tech technology once used by those who visited�?from another world?
The secrecy surrounding the Da Vinci code now seems to be justifiable, as Wayne Herschel’s controversial book, ‘The Hidden Records�? which has just been released, extrapolates. Herschel reveals how this fingerprint of those who visited from another world, is encoded into the enigmatic monuments they built on Earth�?and even on Mars (which was not always a red planet). This would explain why the code had been covered up for centuries�?until today. ‘The Hidden Records�?will reveal all!
Not only does it offer proof that the star the ancient monuments isolate in their layout plans is indeed the star of the ‘gods�? but that it exists astronomically. The book will offer corroborating evidence that it is Sun-like and very close to our solar system. The operative word here is ‘Sun-like’�?because it would most likely have planets associated with it, conducive to life as we know it.
