Description
An important part of the understanding of The Cross of Hendaye is the understanding of the mysterious alchemist, Fulcanelli, who gives us so many suggestions about the understanding of the Cross. The cross is carved with alchemical symbols that occultists find to contain encrypted information on a future global catastrophe. The alchemist Fulcanelli, hinted in his 1926 book 'Le Mystere des Cathedrales', that on the cross in encoded a warning of "a purifying fire that will soon consume the Northern Hemisphere." The creation and transportation of the Cross of Hendaye is rumored to have been funded by the ancient Christian society known as the Rosicrucians. The Cross is a paradigm for synergy, where the whole is greater than the sum of the parts alone. The entire monument is a schematic of the Philosopher's Stone Of the symbols found on the cross, one thing is very important. All the parts of the Cross must be examined together. A holistic interpretation of the cross can not be determined simply on the analyzing of just one of the symbols.

Famous quotes containing the word description:
“The great object in life is Sensation—to feel that we exist, even though in pain; it is this “craving void” which drives us to gaming, to battle, to travel, to intemperate but keenly felt pursuits of every description whose principal attraction is the agitation inseparable from their accomplishment.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
“Whose are the truly labored sentences? From the weak and flimsy periods of the politician and literary man, we are glad to turn even to the description of work, the simple record of the month’s labor in the farmer’s almanac, to restore our tone and spirits.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Why does philosophy use concepts and why does faith use symbols if both try to express the same ultimate? The answer, of course, is that the relation to the ultimate is not the same in each case. The philosophical relation is in principle a detached description of the basic structure in which the ultimate manifests itself. The relation of faith is in principle an involved expression of concern about the meaning of the ultimate for the faithful.”
—Paul Tillich (1886–1965)
