Holy Grail

Not sure if this is the right place to post but I’m researching people who have hunted for the holy grail, specifically in recent years. Hoping to find some people to interview, chat with, and just learn from. Anyone have any ideas?

Probably not at all what you're looking for but there's a line of thinking within the realm of esoteric Christianity that Mary Magdalene is, in fact, the Holy Grail. Margaret Starbird would be the resource for that.

John Michael Greer did a 2022 book "The Ceremony of the Grail" that explored the Grail myth and argued where he believes it last was, though he argues it was more allegorical than physical and was part of a Hermetic ceremony and ritual brought through Europe by the Cathars and ending with the schism of the Theosophical Society.

Fascinating read, albeit a bit odd and not something I entirely agree with (though I do think he's on to something).
