The Amazing Truth of Our Lady of Guadalupe

• DAN LYNCH

Our Lady of Guadalupe appeared in Mexico as the pregnant Mother of God to Blessed Juan Diego, an Aztec Indian, on December 9, 10, and 12, 1531. She left a Miraculous Image of her appearance on his cactus fiber cloak, or "tilma", which still exists today for all to see in the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City.




Our Lady came to offer faith, hope and consolation to the oppressed natives of Mexico and to reconcile them with their Spanish rulers. She put an end to the bloody human sacrifice of the Aztecs and converted ten million natives in the next 10 years!

After the conquest, the Spanish rule of the natives was so severe that a bloody revolt was imminent. Bishop Zummaraga prayed for Our Lady to intervene to prevent an uprising, to reconcile the Spanish and the natives and to bring peace. He asked that he would receive roses native to his homeland of Castile Spain as a sign that his prayer would be answered.

On December 9, 1531, Our Lady appeared to Blessed Juan Diego who was a recently converted Aztec. She asked his to go to the Bishop and request him to build a church for her on the barren hill of Tepeyac which is now part of Mexico City. Our Lady wanted to show her merciful love to all of her children. The prudent Bishop asked Juan to ask the Lady for a sign. Juan did so and Our Lady promised to give him the sign.

On December 12, Our Lady again appeared to Juan on Tepeyac Hill and told him to pick the Castilian roses which miraculously appeared there and bring them to the Bishop as a sign for him to believe her request. Juan gathered the roses into his tilma and brought them to the Bishop.

He opened the tilma to show them and, to everyone's astonishment, the Image of Our Lady appeared on it. The Bishop then built the church as Our Lady had requested and ten million natives were converted and baptized to the one, true faith within the next 10 years. Human sacrifice ended in Mexico forever. Our Lady of Guadalupe, which means Crusher of the serpent's head, brought the light of the true faith, crushed the false gods of Mexico, and established an era of peace.

The Image as Pictograph

The Image of Our Lady is actually an Aztec Pictograph which was read and understood quickly by the Aztec Indians.

• THE LADY STOOD IN FRONT OF THE SUN - She was greater than their dreaded sun-god "Huitzilopochtli".
  
• HER FOOT RESTED ON THE CRESCENT MOON - She had clearly vanquished their foremost deity, the feather serpent "Quetzalcoatl".
  
• THE STARS STREWN ACROSS THE MANTLE - She was greater than the stars of heaven which they worshipped. She was a virgin and the Queen of the heavens for Virgo rests over her womb and the northern crown upon her head. She appeared on December 12, 1531, for the stars that she wore are the constellation of stars that appeared in the sky that day!
  
• THE BLUEâGREEN HUE OF HER MANTLE - She was a Queen for she wears the color of royalty.
  
• THE BLACK CROSS ON THE BROOCH AT HER NECK - Her God was that of the Spanish Missionaries, Jesus Christ her son.
  
• THE BLACK BELT - She was with child for she wore the Aztec Maternity Belt.
  
• THE FOUR-PETAL FLOWER OVER THE WOMB - She was the "Mother of God." The flower was a special symbol of life, movement and deity - the center of the universe.
  
• HER HANDS ARE JOINED IN PRAYER - She was not God but clearly there was one greater than Her and she pointed her finger to the cross on her brooch.
  
• THE DESIGN ON HER ROSE-COLORED GARMENT - She is the "Queen of the Earth," for she is wearing a map of Mexico telling the Indians exactly where the apparition took place.

• The image to this date, cannot be explained by science.
  
• The image shows no sign of deterioration after 450 years! The tilma or cloak of Juan Diego on which the image of Our Lady has been imprinted, is a coarse fabric made from the threads of the maguey cactus. This fiber disintegrates within 20-60 years!
  
• There is no under-sketch, no sizing and no protective over-varnish on the image.
  
• Microscopic examination revealed that there were no brush strokes.
  
• The image seems to increase in size and change colors due to an unknown property of the surface and substance of which it is made.
  
• According to Kodak of Mexico, the image is smooth and feels like a modern-day photograph. (It was produced 300 years before the invention of photography.)
  
• The image has consistently defied exact reproduction, whether by brush or camera.
  
• Several images can be seen reflected in the eyes of the Virgin. It is believed to be the images of Juan Diego, Bishop Juan de Zummaraga, Juan Gonzales, the interpreter and others.
  
• The distortion and place of the images are identical to what is produced in the normal eye which is impossible to obtain on a flat surface.
  
• The stars on Our Lady's Mantle coincide with the constellation in the sky on December 12, 1531. All who have scientifically examined the image of Our Lady over the centuries confess that its properties are absolutely unique and so inexplicable in human terms that the image can only be supernatural!

Wow LISTEN to the Beautiful Music Hidden in the Mantle of Our Lady of Guadalupe

December 12, 2021






Hidden Music was discovered in the mantle of the Virgin of Guadalupe.

The symphonic work is entitled, "Music in the mantle of the Virgin of Guadalupe."

The work is based on the musical notes and melody found by Ojeda Llanes after nearly 23 years of research carried out on the mantle, stars and flowers of the Virgin of Guadalupe.







The arrangements were in charge of maestro Carlos Milan with the advice of maestro Chan Sabido, who was in charge of directing the Vienna Music Symphony Orchestra.

There were 61 musicians on stage, including members of the Vienna Music Choir, directed by Mtra. Nidia Gongora.

Ojeda Llanes recalled that in 1990, after reading a magazine about the beatification of Saint Juan Diego, he undertook the task of investigating the apparitions of the Virgin of Guadalupe, knowing the historical context and corroborating her existence.

—The Higher Institute of Guadalupanos Studies gives me the mission to study the image applying the only science that had not been done before in the studies of the image, Mathematics. I am a mathematician and I have even taken out about five books on this science and I began to investigate and went to the origin of Mathematics, to Pythagoras, that Greek sage. Pythagoras pointed out that where there is perfect symmetry there is music; The previous studies carried out on the image of the Virgin of Guadalupe show that the stars of the mantle are the constellations of the sky at the time of its impregnation, as well as the position of Jupiter that morning and the symmetry of the flowers of the Guadalupano mantle proportionally represent the main hills and volcanoes of the orography of Mexico; If the whole image is in the golden ratio, then it has perfect symmetry, therefore it has music, he said.

He pointed out that Pythagoras was the one who discovered the musical scale and had taken it from the position and sounds of hammers placed in a certain way.


—Therefore, the position of the elements that gave the image perfect symmetry had to be used to find the music. This led me to design a mathematical model as follows:

place the proportionally reduced image in the center of a golden rectangle; the mantle has 46 stars; 46 lines were drawn, each corresponding to each star: one in the center of the image, 23 starting from the center to the left and another 23 from the right side in such a way that there were millimetrically equal spaces between line and line and each line or space it corresponded to a certain star of the mantle or flower center of the dress; As their positions were different, I considered that each star according to its position and each flower center according to its position was a certain musical note.

Based on this mathematical model, I resorted to a music expert who proportionally placed the drawing of a piano on top of the golden rectangle that covered the image, taking care to place the central “C” in the center, in such a way that the proportional drawing of the A piano from a life-size one indicated the respective musical note that was drawn in a ruled notebook, respecting the exact position of the stars and the centers of the flowers.

The musical notes already expressed in a ruled notebook were placed in a musical computer program and the surprise was great to hear a beautiful musical harmony that is definitely heavenly sound. In the apparitions, Saint Juan Diego reported hearing a beautiful melody, he indicated.

—Now, since the discovery was made by a Yucatecan, it was commissioned to Mtro. Carlos Milan the project of making the arrangements of this "perfect harmony", a major challenge given that critics and the eyes of the world will be on this work which adds to the vast repertoire of universal sacred music composed and created by great masters.
