		Perhaps the Holy Grail is something we never thought of at all and in fact the Holy Grail may not even be a physical artifact after all.
		A more recent theory related to the origins of the Holy Grail holds that the earliest stories that cast the grail in a Christian light were meant to promote the Roman Catholic sacrament of the Holy Communion.
		In vivid contrast, Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975) deflated it and all pseudo-Arthurian posturings.

	Saint Luke Orthodox Church - Ministries - Community
		Faith in the Sacrament of Holy Communion, faith that in the holy chalice Christ Himself is present physically, faith, more specifically, that Holy Communion is a most necessary nourishment for the spiritual life, makes the believer long for and strongly desire to come into direct contact, to become one with Christ.
		This longing for frequent Holy Communion grows with the thought that Holy Communion in the present life is the betrothal for the complete communion with God in the future life.
		Holy Communion is a work of love, out of love, out of great love, God, in the second person of the Trinity, communed with his creation, that is, He came to earth, became incarnate and "dwelt among men." Out of great love He gave Himself as a sacrifice for us.

	The Holy Grail: Fact or Fiction?
		Bennett: For Christians, the Holy Grail is and always has been the cup used by Jesus to consecrate the wine at the Last Supper, the very receptacle that held the blood of Christ in the newly instituted sacrament of the Eucharist.
		Bennett: When speaking about the Holy Chalice of Valencia, one problem has been a lack of substantial, factual information that goes beyond the St. Laurence tradition, and another has been the erroneous claim that there are many Grails in existence that claim to be the one given to St. Laurence by Pope Sixtus II.
		The story of the Holy Chalice of Valencia is a beautiful reminder of the importance of this sacrament in the life of the Church, so evident in the care the vessel used by Christ to institute the Eucharist has received throughout the ages.

		The symbols for the "Chalice" - or Holy Grail - that I often use are drawn essentially from ancient archetypes.
		In ancient tradition, the chalice is a vessel used in spiritual ceremonies for changing the form of one element to that of another --transmutation.
		The Chalice metaphor seems to be both open and cohesive enough to easily synthesize all the main archetypes and spiritual cosmologies (that I've heard or studied much of).

		"The oldest written historical document which speaks with great clarity of the holy chalice is the writing for the donation of the chalice, done by the monks of Saint John of the Rock for the King of Aragon, Don Martin I the Human," dated "September 26, 1399," Antuñano continued.
		For Professor Antuñano, one of the most important moments of the holy chalice's history was the visit of Pope John Paul II to Valencia on November 8, 1982.
		"The history of the holy chalice will continue, as does the history of the Church herself," Antuñano concluded, "but the gesture of John Paul II on consecrating in it the Blood of the Lord may be considered as the landmark that introduces the relic in the third millennium."

		Therefore, Guiot combined the history of the Holy Grail with the Arthurian legends: the Knights of the Round Table were the great role models of the mediaeval knights, and Europe's princes were expected to follow their example and recognize the Grail as the highest good imaginable.
		Although it seems certain that the myth of the Holy Grail originates in the veneration of the Santo Caliz during the 12th century, the question whether it indeed is the chalice used by Jesus Christ during the Last Supper has to remain open.
		Indeed it is difficult to think that the chalice with which the most holy sacrament was instituted as the meal of the New Covenant, simply got lost.

		Another document she says supports the tradition that Pope Sixtus II gave the Holy Grail to St. Laurence is the 17th century "Anales del Reyno de Valencia" (Annals of the Kingdom of Valencia), written by Francisco Diago.
		Bennett emphasizes that only the stone cup section of the Holy Chalice of Valencia — which research shows was made in Egypt, Syria or Palestine between the second century B.C. to the first century A.D. —; was used by Christ; the jewel encrusted gold base was added in the Middle Ages.

		Therefore, to "the very material reality of the chalice" is added "an ancient tradition based on vestiges and reasonable evidence," he clarified.
		Far from harboring any "magical property," "the icon is sacred because its image evokes a salvific mystery and, in a spiritual but real way, has as its end to place the one who contemplates it in communion with that mystery, making him a participant in it," he underlined.
		"The history of the holy chalice will continue, as does the history of the Church herself," Antuñano concluded, "but the gesture of John Paul II on consecrating in it the Blood of the Lord may be considered as the landmark that introduces the relic in the third millennium." ZE06070701

		It is early winter in the year 1104 in the Reinmark, a duchy in the north of the Holy Roman Empire.
		Her Black Chalice is the Grail, and she makes explicit what Wolfram only implies: her Grail is a pagan relic, not a Christian one, and it is the Christian goal to master the life-forces that the Chalice both represents and defends that must be opposed in this book.
		It is their suffering, even when turned into a hatred of everything that lives, that justifies the defense of the Chalice, much more than the ambitions of the central villains, about whom little need be said.

		When it was discovered at the beginning of the twentieth century, this "chalice" was claimed to have been found in Antioch, a city so important to the early Christians that it was recognized with Rome and Alexandria as one of the great sees of the church.
