The Da Vinci Code and Hinduism

I was reading "The Da Vinci Code" last month and could not help discovering the similarities between the "Priori of Scion" and Hinduism. Ancient Hinduism praised feminism and worshipped the goddess "Lalithambiga" or "Lalitha". Hindus believed that the male counterpart "Shiva" came from "Lalitha" as described in Lalithopakyana.

The text of Lalitopakyanam is available in this website:
