The Mona Lisa is the best known, the most visited, the most written about, the most sung about, the most parodied work of art in the world. We even sent her to the outer space, and it’s the most valuable painting in the world, which is worth nearly $820 million. Pioneer painter, philosopher and scientist Lionardo da Vinci, painted her for 10 years, at the beginnings of the 1500’s, and scientists claim that he painted her more than 30 times, during these 10 years, and kept her close to him for the rest of his life, until he gave her away along with other paintings of his to Salai, well known model, student and Lionardo’s lover. Well known cryptographer Da Vinci raised everyone’s curiosity with the Mona Lisa, and specifically about her identity and her enigmatic smile, where you can’t tell if she’s smiling or not, resulting in many theories about her identity and her enigmatic smile.
  Nowadays, historians believe that Mona Lisa is Lisa Gherardini, Giocondo’s wife, as it’s written by the most trustworthy historian and artist of the Renaissance, Giorgio Vasari. Traditionally, though, as mentioned in “The Da Vinci Code”, she symbolizes “the male and the female,” where the right half is the male and the left half is the female, but we don’t know how this “half” actually corresponds to the painting. There are also theories which claim that the Mona Lisa is Lionardo’s self-portrait and others who claim that it’s Salai’s portrait, once more.
  Concerning her enigmatic smile, “The Da Vinci Code” claims that her smile is enigmatic because it’s in the lower spatial frequencies and in 2017 scientists measured her smile, and concluded that she’s happy, “blaming” our confusion to the way our brain works, creating images by its own… A few years ago an Art Detective wrongly claimed that the Mona Lisa is the blend of Salai and Lisa Gherardini, using infrared technology… In the novel one may find the decoding of Mona Lisa's basics, her ID, smile, gaze and of top of them the "Mona Lisa Code." Even if the actual Mona Lisa Decoding shown here for the very first time, has nothing to do with Lisa Gherardini and the “male and female,” all of the theorists had a point, and somehow, all of them are part of the actual Decoding of the Mona Lisa which follows, by the Greek writer and TV executive: Filippos Marinakis M.F.A. from A.F.I., who studied 4.500 Da Vinci manuscripts and around 20 sciences in order to solve Mona Lisa’s mystery and plenty of Mona Lisa's secrets, and then comprehend the magnitude of Mona Lisa’s Code, “A landmark for many sciences and our everyday balance and growth,” as the decoder claims.

 The breakthrough moment came from an enigmatic inner voice which led the author to divide Mona Lisa’s face into half vertically [more details in the novel]! And then, the comparison between Salai’s Monna Vanna, or the Naked Mona Lisa, and Lionardo’s Mona Lisa, because Salai was his loved one and therefore he may certainly know a lot about Lionardo’s secret.

            Besides their common stature and perspective, which clearly indicates Monna Vanna’s resemblance to the Mona Lisa, one notices the almost identical left-half face of Salai, compared to the left half-face of Mona Lisa, as we can see in the image below. [In the novel their relationship is explained, as well as Lionardo’s teachings, and why he is called Lionardo and not Leonardo. To your left you can see Lionardo’s signature on the Vitruvian Man.]

"Mona Lisa" by Lionardo da Vinci and "Monna Vanna", or The Naked Mona Lisa- by Salai

            All the above lead to the conclusion that Mona Lisa’s left half is Salai! But of course! Why would Lionardo be an exception and not express his love for his muse and beloved Salai in his favorite masterpiece? Now we know why Lionardo never parted from the Mona Lisa, so as to always have his beloved one with him.  
            So we have answered one half of Mona Lisa’s identity. The one side is his favorite model and lover Salai. If one half is Salai, then who did the Maestro choose to unite with him in his favorite work?

  The more you observe the two halves of the Mona Lisa, the more they differentiate from each other. They look as if they have two connecting but different personalities. Two different people. The left cheek is rounded, while the right, with the same skin, is tighter and slightly sucked in, as artists had to do during times of war. Their differences are easily seen if you cover the one half face with your hand and then the other half face, and compare them to each other.
           Everything we observe in Lionardo’s work is a result of deep contemplation, and little or nothing is coincidental.

So, the Mona Lisa is two different halves
of a face united into one!
The first key to the Mona Lisa!

The one half is Salai, the other-half can’t be anyone else but Lionardo himself! Since it's on the verge of the impossible to unite his loved one with anyone else.

            Looking for proofs for this theory, you realize how organized and a genius Lionardo was, since in order to overcome any doubt of whether they are the Mona Lisa, he named her “Lisa.” And if we follow the decoding’s logic and divide her name in half vertically, we clearly find our proof! Li-Sa is an anagram of their names first two letters!! LI-SA= LIonardo + SAlai!
MONA LISA'S IDENTITY IS AT LAST DECODED!!

            Lionardo and Salai in love are the enigmatic and in love Mona Lisa! One half found the other and united to create the masterpiece of the Mona LiSa, connecting their names and their faces! The glorification of the true love between Lionardo and Salai! An uplifting eros which, thanks to the appreciation of the Mona Lisa, has remained alive since the 16th century. Lionardo being the right side also explains why he hid his extremely beautiful face, as historians say, especially in times where they glorified beauty, and why he confused us with his name, being Lionardo and not Leonardo. To be able, at least through his art, to experience his love freely and, why not, forever!

As Lionardo da Vinci writes, and circles: [1]

           Lionardo also wrote this! It’s incredible! His face is the Prison of Love between him and Salai! He wrote his code down! It’s unbelievable... Don’t reveal it, because their freedom is at stake in the times of the Holy Inquisition and outlawed erotic relationships between two males. How poetic are Lionardo’s thoughts…! Together forever, even at the cost of their own freedom! Therefore, Lionardo found also a way to glorify his forbidden love and in front of everyones eyes! A True Genious!

            Therefore, Mona Lisa’s identity has also little to do with “half male, half female,” since as we can see with our own eyes; both of her halves are males: Lionardo and Salai. Also, we now understand that the “half” is very literal, as in order to Decode the Mona Lisa we have to divide her face vertically in its middle.   

           Accordingly, her smile confused us because Salai’s left half is fully smiling, when Lionardo’s half is pretty serious. So our impression changes according to which lip we focus on. Who could have guessed that it was the smile of two different people?

The enigmatic Mona Lisa's smile, now decoded!
It’s the smile of two different people!

           Same goes for her eyes and gaze. We were confused because each of her pupils looks at a different point in the horizon! The left pupil is looking straight at us, while the right one is wondering.

           In addition, Lionardo divided them into two asymmetrical halves also in the “John the Baptist” and in the “Salvator Mundi” paintings, with Salai as his other-half, freeing their love from its prison again and again, and in front of everyone's eyes! Therefore, we have seven self-portraits of Maestro Lionardo da Vinci! [In the Novel you will find all Lionardo's self-portraits, and also three never seen before mysterious figures on the Mona Lisa, and most importantly the way Lionardo figured out to have his eyes fixed on Salai forever. The Three-Dimensional Mona Lisa by the hands of magical Lionardo da Vinci, as seen in the novel's cover!]

           In the "John the Baptist" painting we may all have seen just Salai, since his profile is covering most of his face, but the truth is that it’s the divided+united Lionardo and Salai! The two of them together forever! The left side is Salai, the right can’t be anyone else but the young and very handsome Lionardo, connected now also in age, just to see how they would look together if they were of the same age. Lionardo is truly very handsome, this is his best self-portrait. A very special masculine and feminine beauty which says more than it hides. He cares, and has the curiosity to be playful with us and enjoy himself while expressing their erotic relationship.  

The novel's story: Da Vinci researcher Filippo, meets in the metro a bizarre young man, named Julius. He reveals to him about the secret organisation of the “Seekers of Truth,” initiated by Lionardo da Vinci in the 1500s. Their purpose was to always keep alive Lionardo’s hidden knowledge, while protecting it from the ones who would use them to control the masses. The writer of “Seekers of Truth” was Lionardo’s inheritor and most capable student, Francesco Melzo. Julius trusts him with Francesco’s unique manuscript, revealing Lionardo’s secret knowledge, as well as the manuscript by Nicolas da Florentia from the 1800s, who answered many of Lionardo’s enigmas; with the goal of solving the rest of them, reach into a conclusion, and then publishing them, so that we can all benefit, and not only the famous same minority. The struggle of these three eras to deliver us from the era of hasty ignorance to the era of patient knowledge, includes clashing with the system, but it also showcases the sensibilities being the origin of all our knowledge, as the unbelievable Lionardo da Vinci wrote. It’s a very original novel, where its heroes by living their lives in the maximum, often make real scientific discoveries and answer some of our biggest questions; even these which we never thought that they would ever be answered. The novel penetrates into Lionardo’s heart, wisdom and psyches as no other novel did before, based on his works and his experiences as they are now interpreted for the very first time, based on 4,500 manuscripts of the Maestro Lionardo da Vinci. The novel is so faithful to Lionardo that it actually decodes the Mona Lisa, and explains the worth of her revealing knowledge! Even if you read many books, you’ve never read a book like this one! Our best chance to learn as much as possible about our lives and how the world works by a single book!

 

[THE SECOND LEVEL OF MONA LISA'S DECODING
concerns our personal balance,
which we can even observe on our faces!]

           Lionardo also wrote that,
“I will demonstrate the Nature of Man in the way I describe his figure,”[2] and concerning his figure he wrote that,
“The shape of bodies is divided into two parts!” [3]
Word for word, this is Lionardo’s description of the principle philosophy behind his works: divided vertically into two. And when Lionardo designs the anatomy of the human scalp, he also divides it in half and both of the sides are clearly of a different type, just like the Mona Lisa! Two more proofs about the stated here decoding of the Mona Lisa, totalling five proofs so far.

The Mona Lisa’s Decoding was always right in front of us!!!
Unbelievable???

           THE REVOLUTIONARY IS that, as it was mentioned in the introduction, what is depicted in the Mona Li-sa, where she is two matching, but different, other half-faces of Li-onardo and Sa-lai, the same thing occurs for all beings! Meaning that, WE ALL HAVE TWO OTHER-HALF FACES/ BODIES/ PERSONALITIES, matching, but so different, that they look like they could belong to a completely different person!

WE ALL ARE PHYSICALLY TWO PEOPLE IN ONE BODY!
           The easiest proof is that WE CAN ALL SEE THEM IN OUR MIRROR IMAGE and therefore have no doubt about the accuracy of Lionardo’s revolutionary observation on Human Anatomy!

           Let's, as another example, observe the other-half faces of famous people:

[PERSONAL OBSERVATION OF FAMOUS OTHER-HALF FACES]

The most famous politician of our era. His right half is the famous one, his left the unknown. Meaning that if someone showed us his left half-face, and asked us who he is, we wouldn't even recognize him.    Live inside Lionardo da Vinci’s multidimensional mind at the time he fell in love and created his Masterpieces, with the use of 350 Artworks as part of the novel’s plot and its characters coming of age and Enlightenment. Find out where and why Lionardo hid his unprecedented Code; probably Psychology's Foundation Stone and a mini revolution for Biology, Politics, Robotics, Anatomy, Cosmology, Painting, Archaeology, Neuroscience, Optics, Arts, Marketing and our Everyday Life because it’s revealing a new knowledge about our anatomy, which is on the top of their knowledge chain, while it also is a logical path towards Enlightenment! An easy to understand multidimensional tool to restore our faith to Human Potential and, why not, Save the World!! Did you check your own two half face in the mirror? YOU MAY SEE YOUR TWO DIFFERENT HALF-FACES ON YOUR FACE, IN THE MIRROR!           Let's also observe Albert Einstein's 3 selves, or how can someone smile and not smile at the same time. [The 3 selves are thoroughly explained in the historical fiction novel]

          So, logically, all of our body is also divided into two physical halves, matching, but, different from each other, as we see in our mirror. As we can observe from the picture to the left, the two halves of the body look like they come from a different guy. The left one is hard as stone, the right one has more meat. The nipples are at a different height and the abdominals naturally create different shapes, even though they belong to the same slim person.

  So, we are physically divided+united vertically into two different faces, bodies, personalities and a THIRD one which combines them, being the one who makes all the decisions. As in the Mona Lisa, one other-half Self is Lionardo, the other-half Self is Salai, and the Third one is the total of them all: The Mona Lisa! So distinct, compared to each other, that you add two male other-half Natures and there appears... a woman!"

  Our Three Selves are also the reason why we physically have two brain hemispheres, instead of one, [as we can see in the picture] which, up to now, we thought would make much more sense and the reason why our eyes may squint, which up to now we also didn't undestand why. As we can’t ignore anatomically our spine, as our body’s Third part which unites our two other halves, we can’t ignore our brain’s corpus callosum, in the middle of our brain’s hemispheres, connecting them like a maestro.

  Meaning that our brain hemispheres don’t serve different purposes as we unofficially think today, we all have two fully operational different minds, because we have two different personalities, making our primary purpose to combine our two selves and double our strength, or else we’ll experience eternal internal nagging.

  As Lionardo describes the natural workings of the male genitals:

“Here is how one soul governs two bodies” [4]

  Meaning that, even if we have three personalities, we share two different views, and not three, because the Third one, “the soul” according to the above statement, is both of these two views, and is therefore already covered by their views, since it’s the combination of the two views.

  One must also notice that our selves are always of the same sex; otherwise one would have, for example, one chest and one breast in the same body. This hasn’t ever happened. Meaning that we're not "half-male, half-female" as we tend to believe in our days.

   The Nature of Humans is, at first, two physically different halves throughout our conception, according to Lionardo, Plato, the Pharaoh's, personal observation and our microscopes in the 21st century, as we can see in the cell’s picture taken at the exact moment of their separation. They aren’t clones, as we believe today, but two different and matching different halves, as we can see from the picture at the moment of seperation, and we still haven’t studied their relationships and differences, nor the criteria of their mutual attraction, because we’re only just realizing that each cell has a different personality, a different side to it, and you can see their asymmetry with the naked eye!

The same works for our two other-half D.N.A. helix and our two other-half chromosomes. [The Attraction and the Asymmetrically Beautiful is explained in the novel]

   Accordingly, one may observe that we can’t have internal conflicts if we only have one self. Then who are we talking with internally since we were born? The expressions we have already accepted for our second hidden voice/self are countless: “Little voice,” “A voice inside me told me to…,” “Internal conflict,” “I’m trying to make amends with myself,” “I’m on good terms with myself.” To which other self are we referring to?

  Evidently, our physical second self, which has its own mind and personality, which we’re called BIOLOGICALLY TO BRING FORTH, AND BRING INTO HARMONY WITH OUR OTHER-HALF SELF, IN ORDER NOT TO BE IMBALANCED.

   All the above means that every living being's Nature is to learn how to make two different sides cooperate fairly from within! Or they will face the consequences with internal nagging. [The how is described in the novel]

Therefore, the Nature of all beings
is to learn how to cooperate fairly!
         What a relief... Meaning that it may actually be very possible to make amends with each other, because that is our Nature!
The more you learn about the nature, the more you learn to love it.

The Mona Lisa Code=
"We all are three people united into one!"

We all have physically two other-half faces/bodies/personalities,
with the Third self/personality being their combination,
our whole face and the impression we create to others.

"The secret for achieving our personal balance and society’s balance!"
[It's thoroughly explained with real life examples in the historical fiction novel]

NOW WE CAN ALL BECOME ENLIGHTENED!

          Logically, the way we are externally, it’s the same way we are internally and here’s why the foundation stone of Psychology is suggested. As Lionardo writes:

“And so may it please our great Author,
that I may demonstrate the Nature of Man and his customs,
in the way I describe his figure.” [5]

  Here, Lionardo goes a giant step deeper and reveals that the way he describes man’s figure, "divided into two parts" [1], is directly related to man’s customs. And this is also the ninth proof of the Mona Lisa code.

  We can’t ignore the new scientific fact, because we have seen our second self with our own eyes. Our goal is to understand how they work. Therefore, it’s logically, the first time we know any Natural Law about our inner world!  We are not alone,
we have two selves to satisfy!  Because, now, we can see our other-half self even with our own eyes! Two are in conversation, the third one decides for their mutual benefit. He that is reading now and maybe even taking into consideration the Revelation of Mona Lisa.

  Psychologists and the Psychiatrists are from now on, logically, called to encounter the second and hidden self inside themselves and their clients, since all three of our Selves are equally important, and only by finding their combination+balance will they cure their clients’ souls, or even their own. “Freeing our second voice, means that we free ourselves!” Bare in mind that we don’t have many other selves, there’s just the two of us and the Maestro, and it’s proved by the Mona Lisa and by our biology and anatomy. Also, the stated here theory isn't related to Jung's "dark self." Will we now built two Artificial Inteligence's into one, following the "tri-fair" rule of nature as described in the historical fiction novel?

          And by knowing that we really do have another equal self, we can't avoid him anymore, and therefore, we'll most probably take our inner self or little voice, seriously, since he may be hiding most of what we were missing since we were born!

Do you remember the kids "imaginary" friends?           Logically, they are the kids second self, naturally expressing themselves, which everybody taught them to silence. It appears that we were very wrong!

          As we were wrong when we told bipolars to silent their other-self. Their salvation lies in combing them. Meaning that Doctor Jekyll should have communicated with his second self Mr Hyde, and together reach into an agreement, consisting both of their wants, tastes, dreams etc, and in NO WAY silencing neither.

"An externalized self-discovery journey to the unknown and pleasant-full" since we're bringing to light our own equal other-wants and other-talents, which may even reach one into being complete, becoming Enlightened, with the use of logic, by knowing and harmonizing one’s selves!"A story, never told before.            How, though, all of the above improve our everyday life, in our personal quest to achieve our balance, either internally or externally, in our interpersonal relationships and inside our society as a whole?           How does Lionardo’s Code expand in 45 original theories, while being a logical path in order to cease your inner turmoil, or even leading you to your Enlightenment and the opening of your Third Eye?[In the drawing to the left, are the “binaty” “Like and Dislike,” by Lionardo da Vinci. Like and dislike are a couple in the same body but they have their backs against each other, as the one is opposite to the other by definition. "Facebook's Code" More info in the novel.]

NOW WE CAN ALL BECOME ENLIGHTENED WITH THE USE OF LOGIC!

"Twenty-nine years old, guileless and sensitive Nicolas finds in 18th century Florence, the hidden and lost manuscript of Lionardo da Vinci’s last pupil, Francesco Melzo, and inheritor, experiencing Lionardo’s teachings as a part of his adventurous life, in between Florence and New York of the 1800s, and thus, decoding the world first and then the epic Mona Lisa, “the Secret of Secrets, on a quest to live a worthy life in cynical times. An intelligent and too-good-for-this-world "Seeker of Truth” who makes various scientific discoveries, while in his real life seeks the truth about "having an other-half person in this world," or not. It all starts with Raya and Nicolas, discovering what he shouldn’t have discovered. A dark secret which wounds him ultimately sets the beginning of an unbelievable transatlantic journey of deep knowledge and unique experiences. Along with the unexpected assistance from a very enigmatic inner voice, that leads him to decode the Mona Lisa… How did his inner voice know the way, when no one has yet decoded her?"            What is the System of Nature Balance, and what is the function+philosophy of the Trifair Demosophy, a brand new Natural Democratic System which follows the way nature spreads the power fairly, where “the power belongs to everyone and no one?” It would though be really funny if a Greek guy once again conceives the next political system... In the novel one may also find how to prepare for a wise Adulthood. and what is the Nature of Humans, according to facts.

           All the above questions consist the THRID LEVEL of Mona Lisa’s Decoding, which is kept secret, in order to be enjoyed by its readers at its full depth, if you’re interested in reading the novel.

           The historical fiction novel includes 165 original theories and 350 gorgeous and explained paintings and drawings, mainly by Lιonardo himself, as part of the plot, adulthood and enlightenment of the novel’s characters, the “Seekers of Truth,” so that:

WE MAY BECOME ENLIGHTENED WITH THE USE OF LOGIC!
Our first goal is to talk freely to each other.
           The difference between reading the manuscript or not is tantamount to opening your eyes or keeping them tight shut.

Will the “Revolution of the Guileless” succeed in the 21st century?
If the message is understood, then the ripe time has come.
