Chapter One surrounds the events of a Hindu boy deeply affected by the religious influences in his life. He discovers, and eventually fears, that he will burn in hell if he doesn’t accept Jesus into his heart. While his faith in religion is great, he witnesses a hideous act of terror – one committed in the name of “religion” by followers that act like Satan in the name of God. This opens the door to him questioning if God really exists, and if He does, then why is there so much evil?
This simple quest for God takes a shocking turn with the declaration, “Something is wrong here. Does God exist transformed? Something is wrong here and I must change it – but I am helpless and life is such a struggle.” Such questioning and doubt can occur in anyone’s life: Life’s traumas often spur us to question our choices and we are rarely prepared to confront evil when it presents itself.
In one simple moment, we can pass judgment, making decisions that effect our entire life from thereon or change an important course of action based on the influence of only one person.
If you have had this experience of “I am helpless and life is such a struggle,” where you feel you are not loved and do not belong, then seize those negative moments and let them go – they could be dictating your entire life at its very core.
“I am helpless and life is such a struggle,” is borne of Satan prevent one from realizing the true love of God. We will see in the coming chapters if Satan will win or God is able to enter Raja’s heart once again.

RELIGIOUS DILEMMA IN THE 21st CENTURY MAKES FOR A GOOD READ
RELIGIOUS DILEMMA IN THE 21st CENTURY MAKES FOR A GOOD READ
“YOU ARE GOING TO BURN IN HELL FOREVER!”
Quite an opening line for a work of fiction – and, as it turns out – you can expect a good read from there on out (with an ending you won’t see coming).
The story surrounds a Hindu boy who converts to Christianity – out of a deep desire to save himself from a hell very real to him. As a grown man, he stumbles into an incident which not only embroils him in disillusionment towards his faith but creates deep conflict. Making matters worse, this same conflict causes the young Christian convert to stand on the very edge of an abyss that threatens to engulf him: that of losing his faith in Christ – and God Himself...
Backtrack to 2003. Dan Brown’s The Da Vinci Code sparked a stirring intellectual debate surrounding the historical facts of the Church and Jesus Christ. Just as significant, were the gamut of emotions felt by many a faithful follower. This same author is likely to spur a similar debate once more, with the release of The Lost Symbol.
But this new element has entered the scene. The Second Coming of Da Vinci: Real Lost Symbols of the Bible presents an equally riveting fiction work: one that provokes profound thought within the highly personalized context and experiences of a single individual.
This is an ideas-driven, richly textured novel, weaving in and out of Eastern and Western philosophies, connecting the facts revealed for both. A powerfully moral book, it concerns itself with the choices one makes in life.
While the casual reader enjoys the fictional nature of the work, conversely the serious reader appreciates the simplicity with which the facets of deep spirituality are made. Without going into deep theological comparisons, The Second Coming of Da Vinci comes to the aid of those who desire to delve deep in the subject of religiosity.
Conversely, for those readers who feel betrayed by their God, their religion, or these trying times we live in, one finds comfort in True Understanding. They can find that regaining hope – and the courage – to stand up and face their own personal challenges is possible, with the conviction that better times are not far off.
The Second Coming of Da Vinci answers the human inquiry surrounding God and religion – decoding the truly lost symbols. And in so doing, invites one and all to open their hearts to love and in turn, to living itself
