The Past

When the Himalayan glaciers melted, they did so on both sides of the Himalayas creating four rivers. The rivers are called the rivers of Eden (Lemurian Atlantis). the mass migrations are told in the Bible and similar holy books of all nations and in legends. Many of the legends disguise real facts under the veil of allegories. Lemuria as the Great Mother, the Great Black Mother of Gods and Men, Kali, Parvati, Isis, Venus, Cybele and even the Virgin Mary. The Great Mother bore the Lemurian civilization on her own not seeded by outside civilizing heroes, angels, gods, devils, etc. These were the Lemurian Sons of God who illuminated the world with the Light of our Great Mother.
The second location for Atlantis, India, is our Great Father, the inseminating god known as Shiva, Jahveh, Zeus, Viracocha, Quetzalcoatl and Bochica. He is the god who is castrated and dies but who resurrects from among the dead, whole and virile as ever.

Volcanoes are manifestations of God's power, a weapon of Nature often used to castigate the nations and to force Evolution to follow its course. Whether catastrophism is our Creator's way or Nature's way, it is definitely wielded to create evolutionary change. The Christ we know was proceeded by many aliases, offhand such as Osiris, Attis, Tammuz, Adonis, Shiva, Kronos, Saturn, Dionysos, Serapis, Mithra, Krishna and the infinite avatars, and Hercules, the great hero and more. There will be others...

Earth Changes

Indonesia was the ultimate boundary of the ancients. Lemuria-Eden is the primordial Paradise where humanity originally arose. It was the dispute between two races, the battle of the sons of Light and the sons of Darkness that led to the destruction of Atlantis. We had had massive extinctions of life on earth hundreds of times. Look at Mars with its dead residues of life, its oceans empty and dry, its terrible dust storms. Nature or Mother Earth sometimes uses its will to remove negative forces. the myths state that Atlantis flooded because they warred. Venus is another instance and became sterile as the Moon.

What is truth? Plato's Atlantis is a luxurious tropical Paradise, bedecked with metals, horses, elephants, coconut, pineapples, perfumes, aromatic wood and other features that were an exclusivity of Indian and Indonesia in the ancient world. The true Atlantis, the archetype of all other Atlantis's is Indonesia or the extensive sunken continent rimmed by this island arc. It was the primordial Atlantis that served as a model for the second Atlantis, the one of the Indus Valley.

Have you ever wondered why the seas became unnavigable? They were covered with thick giant banks of floating, fiery pumice-stone, which were ejected by the giant explosion of volcanic Mt. Atlas, the one who caused the foundering of the Lost Continent. Similar phenomenon on a lesser scale has happened since. There are no sunken continents at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean as an extensive study of this region has unequivocally shown. What exists is a vast Mid-Atlantic Ridge dividing the Atlantic Ocean in the middle. The ridge corresponds not to a sunken continent but to land that is slowing rising out of the sea bottom. Such rifts and ridges exist in all oceans. The two Atlantis's are located in an area where the Mid-oceanic Ridges rise above the surface of the sea.

Where is the True Atlantis?

All nations, of all times, believed in the existence of a Primordial Paradise. This land was considered the abode of the Pure, where man originated and eventually developed the first civilization. As I said before, humans did not have the solid bodies that we use today. What I am sharing is founded on scientific fact not only religion or traditions alone. The causes of the Ice Ages are not well known. Myths state the Pleistocene Ice Age was due to the cataclysmic explosion of Mt. Atlas. The giant explosion of the holy mountain is found in worldwide myths. The Great Pyramid
is a symbol of Mount Atlas, the Holy Mountain, Mt. Meru, and the Pillar of Heaven in Hindu traditions. Mt. Meru collapsed. The volcano is called the Krakatoa, the primordial castration. St. John's Revelation referring to the New Jerusalem is Atlantis, reborn from the cinders, as a Phoenix or Vena in the Rig Veda.

The Egyptians originally came from the Island of Fire, Indonesia, the ancestral land, expelled by the cataclysm. The Aryans, the Hebrews and Phoenicians as well as other nations that founded the magnificent civilizations of olden times migrated from this same source. It is from primordial Lemurian-Atlantis that we have our myths and religious traditions. From Atlantis derive all our science, technology, agriculture, cattle herding, the alphabet, metallurgy, astronomy, music, religion and more. Everything we have came from the second Atlantis from the twin Atlantis we forgot,the home of those who survived the first Atlantis catastrophe. It is in India and in Indonesia we find the secret Atlantis and Lemuria behind the thick veil of their myths and allegories.

A great error was made when researchers of the past and some modern believed Atlantis lay in the Atlantic Ocean. The Hindu myths that told of Atlantis sinking in the Occidental Ocean became interpreted as referring to the Atlantic Ocean, western in regards to Europe, their new residence. The ancient Greeks attempted to end their myths by calling the whole ocean that encircles Eurasia and Africa as Atlantis. They renamed the ocean in their myths and applied it to the Indian Ocean. It is located on the other side of the world. Greek mythos often embodies the confusion of east and west.

Root Races

Each root race passes through various stages: youthful, mature and decline. Each population of a root race is divided into 7 sub races. Each sub race maintains itself for a long time while others are developing alongside it. That is why the world population is as it is because different stages of development are living together here on earth.

With each subsequent sub race, evolutionary changes occur. As an example, memory consisted of vivid sense impressions, color and sound. They then developed feelings, which their Lemurian ancestors did not yet know. Memory came with language. Memory did not show up until the final Lemurian period. The Atlantian period is the one in which the development of language took place. A new bond was formed among humans in the early states of the first sub-race as the result of sound-words inside themselves and to the objects of the external world.

Soul powers of the first Atlanteans still possessed something of the forces of nature. Their sound-words contained a power over things and other human beings. They could cure, advance the growth of plants, tame the rage of animals and perform other similar functions. All these powers progressively decreased in form among the later sub-races of the Atlanteans. As spirit and soul become increasingly earth-matter oriented, the psychic powers decrease.

Rudolph Steiner's Akashic Record

Steiner states that the early Atlanteans had a different mental capacity than ours; they were not equipped with logic but did have a highly developed memory. Whatever they performed, they did from memory. They thought in images, like our animals and not in concepts. Over a long period of Atlantean life they lived uniform lives because of the developed and faithful memory. They did not invent a million years ago, they remembered. People respected a person who looks back upon long experience.

The Mystery Schools back then had a requirement for admission. The student had to remember previous incarnations and acquired the faculties for receiving wisdom. No logic...only memory. The personality was not important. They knew how to control the life force, how to control the energy dormant in grains and plants. They had vehicles that could float at ranges lower than mountain ranges. The vehicles could not be used today because at that time the cover of air, which enveloped the earth was much denser than it is now. During the early cycle the water on the whole earth was much thinner than today. Because of the thinness, the water could be directed and used for technical services. Civilization was radically different than ours.

Atlanteans took into himself water, which could be used by the life force of his body to increase physical power when he needed them for a project. Their ideas of fatigue and depletion of forces were quire different from ours. In the early cycle, the community did not resemble our modern city. They lived in alliance with nature. This alliance continued to the middle of the third sub race. Settlements resembled a garden in which houses were built of trees with artfully intertwined branches. Their social sense was related to nature. Nature was considered common property. Plants and animal form have become quite different since that time. All of nature has been subjected to transformation.

Early Atlanteans...

The early Atlanteans sense of feeling according to Rudolph Steiner and his access to the Akashic Records, was dramatically different than how we understand the sense of feeling. If the Atlanteans were tired and needed rest, they would enter their physical body. For activity, they would enter the spirit world. In the spirit world, they felt transposed into a group soul. During this early first period of Atlantis, a process took place in which human beings gradually passed from one set of conditions into their opposite. Gradually, the etheric body was being driven into the physical and this occurred during the last third of the Atlantean epoch. They originally felt at rest in the physical and alive in the brilliance of the spiritual world. As the shift from the one viewpoint changed, they withdrew from the spiritual into the physical. The Atlanteans at that stage of physical evolution finally understood themselves in the confinement of a body shell as an independent being.

Gradually, it dawned upon them that they were egos with their own consciousness and not the group soul they had previously known as their identity. As they spent more time in the snail-body, they knew what they were and learned to perceive the physical environment that used to be seen only as vagueness. Now, when they descended fully into their physical bodies and looked at the sky, they did not see the rainbow but they finally did see something like a circle formed of color. They were seeing for the first time the sun although at that time the sun did not penetrate with its power through the heavy mist. The awakening of external consciousness was connected with the emergence of the Sun from the mist. Now, we can understand why so many early religions worshipped the Sun. The early Atlanteans did not require the Sun to physically live because, remember, they spent more of their time out of the physical body then in it.

Once the Sun appeared and physical and environmental changes occurred, the door of inner spirit vision closed to these beings. This is a cosmic process in world history. Consciousness of self evolves through spiritual darkening. In this way, human beings grew away from the brilliance of the group souls but gained individuality. It was a long time before they really grew to possess individuality, as we know it. Souls today are still searching for the spirit contact they once had when they were not as grounded in matter.

Rudolph Steiner and the Akashic Record

The following information in this particular article is partly taken from Rudolph Steiner and his exploration of the Akashic Record approximately a million years ago. The early people had a will that was magical. An example was their ability to affect the growth of flowers. Natural surroundings depended on the beings that lived during that epoch. Steiner places land masses prior to the Atlantean beginning and states that they were essentially manipulated by the use of evil will of an earlier root race who were divided in the area of intention referred to as the Lemurians. A small group survived and were the earliest Atlanteans. Race development and soul development work hand in hand. It was after this catastrophe we come to the ancient Atlantean epoch when the human race developed in a more expanded way in the physical senses. More on that later. They lived very differently than we do. They had a kind of spiritual vision and their bodies had a different construction. The etheric body was not yet so firmly bound up with the physical body. Keep in mind, there were different epochs or stages of Atlantean growth. Later, towards the last third of the Atlantean epoch did the projecting etheric body draw in and take the form of the present physical human head.

Their bodies did not look like ours and their whole soul life was different. If you were to visit early Atlantis, you would find that it was not surrounded by air as the present earth but by air saturated with volumes of mist with water. This air became clearer and more transparent the further Atlantis developed. The mists were densest where the more advanced Atlantean civilization developed. Atlantis was covered far and wide by mist. No division of rain and sunshine. No rainbows...not until Noah after the flood witnessed the first rainbow. From the point of physics, it was impossible before due to the weather conditions to see a rainbow. Ancient Atlanteans lived in a different state of consciousness and memory was different from what we have now. Today, we use our physical senses during the day. At night and asleep our etheric and astral body and ego withdraw. In the morning, everything returns. It was just the opposite experience for the early Atlanteans.

During the early Atlantean period, their physical world was entirely different. We see objects in clear outlines. They saw objects indistinctly like someone would who is very nearsighted. Only gradually through time did the clear outlines develop. In early times, objects looked like cloudy structures. Early Atanteans did not sleep like we do. Since the physical formations were misty, human beings lived within a spiritual or more subtle world where they had better sight. Spiritual beings, not physical ones, were their companions. Just the opposite of the average humans experience today. More...
