[MUSIC "What Are the Wild Waves Saying"]
-
Each one of us is the result of billions
-
of years of evolution and devolution.
-
Billions of years of actions and their
-
consequences have led to this moment.
-
The actions of those who lived before us
-
gave us this body and this life.
-
This is truly an
-
incredible precious gift.
-
But what are we doing with it?
-
How is our behavior today creating
-
consequences for our
-
children and their children?
-
Sadly, our situation is very grave and is
-
becoming increasingly threatening.
-
We face so many immense dangers and yet
-
are totally unaware of the worst of them.
-
To understand the reality of our
-
situation, we need to
-
understand how we got here.
-
Only then can we understand
-
how to truly change our lives.
-
As is often said, those who ignore their
-
history are certain to repeat it.
-
[MUSIC "Jack and Jill"]
-
Every child learns through stories.
-
It is obvious that children's stories are
-
not historical or literal facts.
-
They are inventions designed to help the
-
reader subconsciously
-
understand basic truths.
-
Myths and religious stories are the same.
-
Every religion and mythological tradition
-
tells stories about how the world was
-
created and about our ancestors.
-
But modern people make the mistake of
-
interpreting those stories literally.
-
Religions and myths are not literal.
-
They are symbolic, and one needs to know
-
how to interpret them.
-
In fact, the secret mystical book of
-
Judaism, the Zohar, says so.
-
"The stories of the teaching are the
-
covering of the teaching.
-
"Woe to him who takes that covering for
-
the teaching itself.
-
"There are foolish people who, when they
-
see a man covered with fine clothes,
-
look no further than the clothes.
-
"And yet it is the body that
-
lends value to the clothes;
-
and still more precious is the soul.
-
"The teaching also has its body and soul.
-
"The simple-minded take heed
-
of nothing but the covering,
-
the stories of the teaching;
-
they know nothing else and do not see
-
what is hidden under them.
-
"The well-informed think not of the
-
clothes, but of the
-
body that the story covers.
-
"Finally, the wise think of the soul only,
-
which is the foundation of all the rest
-
and which is the teaching itself."
-
The religious stories, myths, and legends
-
that everyone knows and
-
interpret literally and use as the basis
-
for their dogmas and
-
traditions are like children's stories.
-
They are not literal
-
history, but are symbolic.
-
They hide levels of meanings that the
-
public would never imagine.
-
For instance, the
-
Greek myths are famous and
-
countless books have been written about
-
their meanings, but
-
none of them are true.
-
The real meanings of the Greek myths were
-
never revealed to the public.
-
This is equally true of
-
every religion in the world.
-
Every myth and religious story is
-
symbolic and has
-
levels of hidden meanings.
-
In this series, we will
-
only introduce this subject.
-
It is impossible to include all of the
-
legends and myths
-
from our many traditions
-
or to go deep into the details of many
-
billions of years of history.
-
Here, we are only going to show that
-
there is much for us to learn.
-
Those who wish to dive deeper into this
-
subject will find a very reliable guide
-
in "The Secret Doctrine" by H.P. Blavatsky.
-
This incredible book from
-
1888 laid the foundation for
-
the development of the 20th century.
-
It awakened the West to the universal
-
shared root of all spiritual knowledge.
-
It was also the bedside reader for
-
perhaps the most important scientific
-
mind of recent centuries:
-
Albert Einstein.
-
Everything we will briefly outline here
-
is fully documented
-
in "The Secret Doctrine,"
-
and was expanded upon in the
-
20th century by Samael Aun Weor.
-
"Modern science insists upon
-
the doctrine of evolution.
-
So do human reason
-
and the secret doctrine.
-
And the idea is corroborated by the
-
ancient legends and myths.
-
And even by the Bible itself, when it is
-
read between the lines."
-
Modern science has theorized a timeline
-
of evolution based on bits and
-
pieces of physical evidence.
-
Yet most of our history did
-
not occur in physical matter.
-
Evolution does not begin or
-
end in the physical world.
-
In fact, the physical world is simply an
-
outer shell, a thin skin.
-
It is the most
-
superficial aspect of evolution.
-
Life emerges from far deeper.
-
The tree of life
-
symbolizes the laws of nature
-
and has many levels of meaning.
-
It is the secret basis
-
of the Western religions.
-
For the purpose of this explanation, we
-
can view it as layers of density.
-
Existence emerges out of a
-
primordial abstract space,
-
and gradually condenses
-
as matter, energy, and
-
consciousness in layers of increasing
-
density, what we can call dimensions.
-
That unfolding occurs in cycles.
-
It expands outward,
-
evolves a bit, and then retreats.
-
It is like our breath or heartbeat.
-
It emerges, then retreats.
-
This cycle repeats and repeats in
-
timescales that are
-
truly incomprehensible.
-
With each expansion, it reaches further.
-
Over vast ages, layers of nature
-
gradually become more dense,
-
until eventually the
-
physical world crystallizes.
-
Here and now, there are many levels of
-
nature that are more subtle than
-
the physical level, but we don't perceive
-
them with our physical senses.
-
We can experience some of those levels
-
dimly when we dream.
-
But unfortunately, we
-
dream without cognizance.
-
We are not aware of those worlds, even
-
though we exist in them here and now.
-
In our current condition, we are limited
-
to our physical senses,
-
which reveal only the outer shell or
-
surface of much deeper
-
events that emerge from the
-
more subtle levels of nature.
-
To help us understand that, we can
-
observe a person and
-
see their expression,
-
but we cannot perceive the cause.
-
That expression on their physical body is
-
a result of what is
-
happening inside of them,
-
their thoughts,
-
emotions, and inner sensations.
-
Our physical senses cannot
-
see those levels of nature.
-
Everything we perceive in the physical
-
world is a result of what has already
-
happened in the internal worlds,
-
in the subtle levels of nature.
-
That is why we can dream
-
about things that happen later.
-
Everything in the physical world was in
-
the subtle world's first.
-
This includes our human race.
-
Our evolution began in the internal worlds.
-
We are not the first
-
human race on this planet.
-
We will not be the last.
-
Before us, there were
-
four great civilizations.
-
Our oldest scriptures symbolize our
-
ancestors differently in each tradition.
-
But once you know the clues,
-
you can see that they all tell the same story.
-
Billions of years ago, there was a race
-
in the subtle levels of nature who had
-
formless bodies made
-
of light.
-
Because of residual
-
karma from previous eras,
-
those beings had to
-
descend into lower forms.
-
They began to inhabit bodies of form.
-
Billions of years ago, when
-
the earth was still in formation,
-
the subtle forms in the internal
-
dimensions were slowly
-
crystallizing into the physical level.
-
"And the earth was without form and void,
-
and darkness was upon
-
the face of the deep.
-
And the soul of the Elohim [of the first
-
era] moved upon the face of the waters."
-
Our mythologies describe primordial
-
titans, great gods and
-
goddesses of ancient times.
-
Those myths, such as Avalon and the Tuath de,
-
represent the
-
ancient race of Polaris.
-
Their lands were remembered as Thule,
-
Tula, Aztlan, Avalon,
-
Asgard, and many other names.
-
"This sacred land is the only one whose
-
destiny it is to last from
-
the beginning to the end.
-
It is the cradle of the first man and the
-
dwelling of the last divine mortal."
-
Today, the physical part of those lands
-
is under the northern ice.
-
The polar race was
-
semi-ethereal, semi-physical.
-
They were very beautiful, with a rich
-
black color, and did
-
not have gender or race.
-
They were filled with
-
virtues, wisdom, and intelligence.
-
Their bodies were colossal, but subtle,
-
amorphous, somewhat
-
like an amoeba or a cell.
-
In the Abhidharma scriptures of Buddhism,
-
they are described as
-
having bodies of light
-
that are not limited by the
-
laws of the physical world.
-
They could stretch or
-
constrict themselves at will.
-
Their purpose was to lay the foundations
-
for life on this world, and to guide it
-
for billions of years.
-
In the ancient scriptures, they have many
-
names and symbolic representations.
-
The Indian scriptures call them
-
Prajapatis, the self-born.
-
In the Bible, they are called Elohim.
-
The first root race was a divine
-
humanity, a race of gods.
-
They still exist today, but
-
in a subtle level of nature.
-
The polar race did not have gender.
-
They were androgynous, male-female,
-
and reproduced by fissiporous asexual
-
reproduction, they simply divided their
-
body to make a new one.
-
Just as cells today have no gender and
-
reproduce asexually by splitting,
-
that is how our ancient ancestors
-
reproduced, and it is
-
how our body first begins.
-
The ancient myths of the creator gods
-
represent the polar race.
-
From deep within the subtle levels of
-
nature, they have been
-
guiding the evolution of life
-
on this planet for billions of years.
-
So when the moment was right, they made
-
terrific efforts to
-
perform great feats of creation,
-
to initiate a new cycle of evolution, a
-
new race of human beings.
-
Over millions of years of evolution, the
-
Elohim guided the
-
development of a new race
-
in a slightly more dense form.
-
We call them the Hyperboreans.
-
The physical part of some of their lands
-
still exists today in
-
northern Europe and Asia.
-
The Hyperboreans were smaller than the
-
polar race, but still
-
enormous compared to us.
-
Their bodies were a little more dense
-
than the polar race, but
-
were still not fully physical.
-
In the Bible, this is represented by
-
another level of light.
-
"And the Elohim [of the first era] said,
-
"Let there be light,
-
and there was light."
-
They were also
-
androgynous, male-female in one being,
-
but could manifest as
-
male or female as necessary.
-
The Hyperboreans reproduced by budding,
-
by sprouting a new body on themselves.
-
Over many millions of years, the
-
Hyperboreans evolved and devolved.
-
Their civilization had
-
stages, just as each day does:
-
dawn, midday, sunset, and midnight.
-
These are the four ages.
-
The Golden Age, Silver
-
Age, Bronze Age, and Iron Age.
-
The four stages in the life of anything.
-
The stages of evolution and devolution.
-
In their Iron Age, some of the
-
Hyperboreans began to devolve and show
-
signs of self-interest,
-
selfishness.
-
Over the course of millions of years,
-
this self-interest caused some of the
-
Hyperboreans to
-
degenerate further and further.
-
They began to show qualities of the lower
-
kingdoms of nature, the animals.
-
Eventually, they devolved into forms
-
similar to primates,
-
and that devolution has
-
continued to this day.
-
The physical bodies of modern-day
-
primates are devolved forms that began
-
back in the Hyperborean era.
-
And those old bones of animalistic humans
-
that scientists have
-
said are our ancestors
-
are actually the remnants
-
of degenerated Hyperboreans.
-
At the end of the Hyperborean era, there
-
was violence and darkness.
-
The Hyperborean race was
-
destroyed by hurricanes.
-
A select group of them was taken out to
-
lay the foundation for a
-
new era of development.
-
"And the Elohim of the first era said,
-
"Let the waters under the
-
heaven be gathered together
-
unto one place, and
-
let the dry land appear."
-
The continent Lemuria, or Mu, was the
-
first dry land on Earth.
-
This was when the physical
-
level was fully crystallized.
-
In the Bible, it is called Eden.
-
That ancient continent
-
was in the Pacific Ocean.
-
Remnants of that civilization can be
-
found all around the Pacific,
-
like Easter Island,
-
and Australia.
-
The Lemurians were smaller than the
-
Hyperboreans, but giants compared to us.
-
The average lifespan of the
-
Lemurians was 1,500 years.
-
They spoke face to face
-
with the gods, the Elohim.
-
The Lemurians could see all the
-
dimensions of nature.
-
They knew their purpose and their future.
-
They had no pain in death or in birth.
-
After 150,000 years of evolution, the
-
Lemurians reached a
-
degree of civilization
-
that we today are still
-
very far from reaching.
-
They had flying ships and
-
boats propelled by atomic energy.
-
They used nuclear energy.
-
They had cosmic ships that allowed them
-
to travel to other worlds.
-
"And the Elohim [of the first era] said,
-
"Let us make mankind in our
-
image after our likeness."
-
"So the [androgynous] Elohim created a new
-
race [through evolution] in
-
their own [androgynous] image.
-
In the image of Elohim created they them.
-
They created them male-female."
-
The first Lemurians were hermaphrodites.
-
A hermaphrodite has both
-
male and female sexual organs
-
and reproduces the species asexually
-
alone, by fecundating
-
one egg with one sperm.
-
Then, over millions
-
of years of evolution,
-
the Elohim guided the
-
division of the sexes.
-
Through gradual evolution, Lemurian
-
children began to be born
-
with one sexual organ more
-
accentuated than the other.
-
That became more and more common until
-
finally children were
-
born with a clear gender
-
as a man or a woman.
-
This did not happen
-
from one day to the next.
-
The division of sexes
-
took millions of years.
-
The separation of Adam and Eve in the
-
Bible symbolizes the division into
-
sexes that happened in the Lemurian era.
-
That is recapitulated in the development
-
of every fetus today.
-
At first, the fetus has no gender.
-
Then there is a moment when the fetus
-
evolves to be either male or female.
-
This is why the males of
-
today have inert nipples.
-
This is why the females of today have a
-
clitoris, which is an atrophied penis.
-
Our physical bodies today have remnants
-
of our ancient past when human beings
-
were hermaphrodites.
-
Obviously, once the sexes were divided,
-
sexual cooperation was required in order
-
to reproduce the species.
-
Menstruation remained in the feminine
-
sex, but the egg was unfertilized.
-
It was necessary to have the cooperation
-
of the masculine sex
-
to fertilize the egg in order to
-
reproduce the species.
-
All of this was in accordance with the
-
designs of the Elohim.
-
At first, the sexual cooperation of male
-
and female was a sacred
-
event only for reproduction
-
that was only performed
-
at special times of year,
-
and only at the temples under the
-
guidance of the Elohim.
-
That is the origin of the
-
tradition of the honeymoon,
-
a special trip for the married couple to
-
initiate reproduction.
-
Back then, the sexual act was an act of
-
prayer, and there was no lust or orgasm.
-
The couple would unite sexually in the
-
temples and remain that way, focused in
-
prayer and meditation.
-
The Elohim would guide a single sperm
-
from the male to the
-
egg in the female's body.
-
The Lemurians practiced "immaculate conception,"
-
reproduction without orgasm.
-
So as you can see, from race to race,
-
over billions of years, sexual
-
reproduction evolved.
-
The polar race evolved to reproduce by
-
the fissiporous asexual
-
generation, by splitting.
-
The Hyperborians evolved to reproduce by
-
asexual budding. The Lemurians evolved
-
from gemmation at first, reproduction by
-
means of an egg, and then
-
reproduction by sexual cooperation.
-
Throughout these root races, for billions
-
of years, humanity
-
evolved with sexual purity,
-
and was approaching a critical step, the
-
opportunity to become Elohim
-
themselves, gods and goddesses.
-
For the evolution of humanity to advance
-
further, the Elohim needed the Lemurians
-
to fully crystallize in the physical world.
-
Their physical bodies were ready,
-
but their consciousness was not fully
-
enveloped in their physical bodies.
-
They were so devoted
-
to divinity, and so pure, so innocent,
-
that they did not want to
-
go into the physical world.
-
They could only hazily perceive the
-
physical world.
-
In a sense, their perception was like
-
the opposite of ours. We only perceive
-
the internal worlds
-
dimly, such as in dreams.
-
For them, it was the opposite.
-
The physical world was dim. It was
-
perceptible, but not interesting.
-
They loved the light of divinity that
-
they saw with their superior senses.
-
They wanted to see divinity, not the
-
physical world. So they were
-
at a kind of boundary between
-
the subtle world of the fourth dimension
-
and the concrete world
-
of the physical dimension,
-
and they did not want to continue their
-
development into the
-
physical world.
-
So the Elohim
-
guided the evolution of the Lemurian
-
bodies to develop a
-
special organ to attract the
-
consciousness towards the sensations of
-
physicality.
-
In esotericism, that organ
-
is called kundabuffer.
-
It was at the bottom of the
-
spinal column and formed a tail.
-
This event is mirrored in our development
-
as an embryo.
-
For a brief time, the human embryo
-
has a tail.
-
That is a recapitulation of
-
our ancient past.
-
With the tail in place,
-
the Lemurians
-
definitively turned their attention
-
towards physicality.
-
And over millions of years,
-
their consciousness became fully secured
-
into the physical bodies, and
-
therefore the physical world.
-
Once that tail was no longer necessary,
-
the Elohim guided
-
nature to devolve it away,
-
and over time it was dropped from the
-
physical bodies of the Lemurians.
-
We still have a vestige of it at the base
-
of our spinal column.
-
It is called the coccyx.
-
Unfortunately, that tail was
-
attached for a little too long.
-
It left a shadow in our psyche:
-
fascination with physical sensations.
-
In the Western scriptures, Adam and Eve
-
symbolize the Lemurian humanity.
-
The myth says that Eve was tempted by a
-
serpent to eat a forbidden fruit,
-
the fruit of the tree of knowledge.
-
"Of the tree of knowledge of טוב [purity],
-
and רע [impurity],
-
thou shalt not eat of it.
-
For in the day that thou eatest, thereof
-
thou shalt surely die."
-
The tree of knowledge is also symbolic.
-
Its true meaning is hinted at throughout the scriptures.
-
"And Adam knew Eve, his wife, and she
-
conceived and bare Cain."
-
"And the angel said unto her, Thou shalt
-
conceive in thy womb,
-
and bring forth a son,
-
and shalt call his name Yeshua, "saviour."
-
Then said Mary unto the angel,
-
how shall this be,
-
seeing I have not known a man?"
-
The Hebrew word דעת
-
implies sexual knowledge.
-
Unfortunately, the scriptures about this
-
were translated poorly
-
to enforce the dogmatic philosophy taught
-
to the public about
-
so-called "good and evil."
-
The mythological symbolic tree of
-
knowledge hides
-
secret teachings about sex.
-
Towb טוב means "pure, good, ethical, sweet."
-
Rah רע means "pollution, impurity, wickedness."
-
These are the polarities of sexual action
-
and the potential results of sex.
-
There is a pure ethical form of sexual
-
cooperation, and there is an impure,
-
polluted form of sex.
-
The pure form can create an
-
Elohim, a Buddha, a master.
-
The impure form creates devils, monsters,
-
pain, and suffering.
-
This is what was hidden, because knowledge
-
is power, and sexual
-
knowledge is very dangerous.
-
Over billions of years, our ancestors
-
evolved to reach sexual cooperation,
-
and were being prepared by the Elohim to
-
utilize sex in a pure
-
way based on genuine love,
-
to develop their consciousness so
-
humanity could become Elohim and enter
-
the superior kingdoms of nature.
-
But the Lemurians were tempted by pleasure.
-
While away from
-
the temples, the males, longing
-
for union with the females, tempted them
-
with their symbolic
-
serpents, their sexual organs,
-
and the women tasting that pleasure
-
wanted more.
-
It is obvious that the story of Adam and Eve is
-
symbolic, and it is obvious that it is
-
about sex, but humanity has never
-
understood it. Now you will.
-
The temptation of Adam and Eve symbolizes
-
all of the ancient Lemurians
-
who began to have the sexual
-
act away from the temples.
-
They were tempted by their own minds
-
and by pleasure, and eventually
-
they discovered the orgasm.
-
The orgasm happens when the body is
-
overcharged with sexual power
-
and cannot control it.
-
The orgasm is a
-
short circuit that expels
-
all of the accumulated power.
-
The orgasm is symbolized
-
by the forbidden fruit.
-
It is forbidden
-
because the sexual power creates
-
life both externally and spiritually.
-
The sexual power is the
-
fuel for the consciousness,
-
the "living waters" that create eternal life.
-
That is why serious
-
practitioners in all religions
-
preserve their sexual power.
-
When you eat
-
the forbidden fruit, you
-
waste your sexual power,
-
rather than using it for its intended
-
purpose, the
-
development of the human soul.
-
When the sexual power is expelled, lost,
-
through the orgasm, the
-
consciousness is weakened.
-
Through the orgasm, the Lemurians
-
expelled the sexual power
-
that gave them their beauty,
-
spiritual powers, and purity.
-
So they degenerated.
-
Tempted by desire for pleasure,
-
that ancient humanity
-
polluted the sexual act.
-
Rather than the tree of knowledge leading
-
to good, to purity, it
-
led to pollution, impurity.
-
Before that mistake, they were pure,
-
happy, and innocent, and they knew
-
and they knew divinity face to face.
-
After polluting the sexual act with the
-
orgasm, they discovered
-
shame, fear, and discontentment.
-
They lost sight of divinity.
-
They discovered pain,
-
the feeling of being
-
disconnected from divinity,
-
and disconnected from others.
-
Eden, "happiness," was lost.
-
In the myth of Adam and Eve, when they
-
were expelled from Eden,
-
this represents how the
-
Lemurian humanity entered fully into the
-
physical world.
-
This was supposed to happen anyway,
-
but while retaining consciousness of the
-
internal worlds.
-
The problem was,
-
they ate of the forbidden fruit.
-
So instead of entering the
-
physical world consciously,
-
the Lemurians entered through indulgence
-
in desire, with the
-
consequences that result from it:
-
suffering, pain, and unconsciousness.
-
The Lemurians lost the ability
-
to see the superior dimensions.
-
They lost the ability to
-
see the gods, the Elohim.
-
They lost their
-
beauty and innocence,
-
and instead fully crystallized
-
into the physical world, fallen, expelled
-
from paradise.
-
This also occurred over a long period
-
of time. It was not
-
from one day to the next.
-
Subsequently, because they had lost their
-
powers, they sought to
-
recover them by selfish means.
-
They began to use their rituals and
-
spiritual knowledge selfishly,
-
which turns it into black magic.
-
In the last days of Lemuria,
-
black magic spread everywhere.
-
The Lemurians devolved into
-
warring tribes, and in their pride and
-
anger, they unleashed
-
atomic weapons on each other.
-
For 10,000 years, earthquakes destroyed
-
the continent of Lemuria
-
and threw it all to the
-
bottom of the ocean.
-
Today, only a few traces remain.
-
At the last moment, a select group of
-
Lemurians were taken out to be
-
the seeds for the development
-
of a new era.
-
The Elohim fought valiantly
-
to plant those seeds and made great
-
sacrifices for them to rise higher, but
-
the consequences of the fall from Eden
-
could not be avoided.
-
And so the cycle of
-
evolution and devolution began again.
-
The Atlantean humanity was the next great
-
civilization in ancient times,
-
still millions of years ago.
-
In the beginning, in their
-
golden age, the
-
civilization of Atlantis was beautiful.
-
Law and ethics were respected as sacred.
-
Love and sex were
-
considered sacred and holy,
-
and the sexual act was only performed for
-
the reproduction of the species.
-
The Atlanteans also had technology far
-
more advanced than ours.
-
They traveled to other planets.
-
They combined science with
-
spiritual power. They knew
-
how to place the consciousness
-
of living things into humanoid, android
-
robots to serve them.
-
They knew how to de-gravitate
-
anything, making it easy to
-
move even enormous objects.
-
They had beautiful religions.
-
All of the religious teachings
-
of the Inca,
-
Maya, Aztecs, Greeks, Phoenicians,
-
Scandinavians, and the Hindus
-
all have Atlantean origins.
-
The gods and goddesses of those
-
traditions were the heroes,
-
kings, and queens of Atlantis.
-
The Atlanteans reached the highest point
-
of civilization, culture, and knowledge
-
in our history.
-
Then, at the peak crisis
-
necessary for the development of
-
humankind, the Atlanteans had
-
to face the temptation
-
of the tree of knowledge.
-
The Atlanteans were tempted by
-
the forbidden fruit,
-
and most failed.
-
Then humanity branched
-
into two opposed paths,
-
the pure and the impure.
-
The pure preserved their sexual power.
-
They rejected the orgasm
-
in order to gain something
-
better: spiritual fire and the
-
strengthening of their consciousness.
-
The impure encouraged the orgasm.
-
They sought pleasure and power,
-
and their influence spread rapidly.
-
As a result, the devolution of the
-
Atlanteans accelerated.
-
Sex became a tool for pleasure
-
and power.
-
The Atlanteans had orgies.
-
They mixed sex with magic
-
and developed a taste for lust,
-
pride, anger, and envy.
-
The physical bodies of the Atlanteans
-
were smaller than the Lemurians,
-
and did not live as long. Where the
-
Lemurians lived from 1200 to 1500 years,
-
the Atlanteans lived
-
only 600 to 700 years.
-
To extend the beauty and the lifespans of
-
the rich and powerful,
-
the Atlanteans began
-
to harvest glands and hormones
-
from the poor.
-
They transplanted
-
hearts, kidneys, and even brains.
-
As a result, an Atlantean could remain
-
alive for many centuries
-
beyond their normal lifespan,
-
and through many bodies
-
without interruption.
-
Their senses were also
-
less powerful than the
-
Lemurians, and over the course of time,
-
because of the many
-
abuses they were pursuing,
-
their perception worsened.
-
They lost sight
-
of the superior worlds
-
and lost sight of the gods,
-
In their pride and desire to recover
-
their spiritual powers,
-
they revived the black magic
-
of the past and developed it to
-
become more powerful.
-
In short, the Atlanteans devolved
-
much further than the Lemurians.
-
"And God saw
-
that the רע of mankind
-
was great in the earth,
-
and that every imagination of the
-
thoughts of their hearts
-
was only רע continually."
-
Those on the pure path warned them
-
that the end of their
-
civilization was approaching,
-
but the Atlanteans laughed
-
and mocked them.
-
In their Iron Age, the Atlanteans
-
devolved into a series of wars
-
so profound they are still remembered
-
today in the Mahabharata.
-
This series of wars lasted for hundreds
-
of thousands of years,
-
and it led to the use of
-
atomic weapons,
-
which triggered huge earthquakes.
-
The first was
-
800,000 years ago.
-
The second was
-
200,000 years ago.
-
The third and the last,
-
the one that
-
finished Atlantis for good,
-
happened about 11,000 years ago,
-
and it triggered a flood
-
that totally sank the remnants of the
-
Atlantean civilization.
-
At that last moment,
-
a select group of
-
Atlanteans from the pure path
-
were taken out,
-
exactly as it happened
-
with the previous races.
-
Cultures all over the world
-
remember that event in the stories of
-
Noah, Vaivasvata, Utnapashtim,
-
Deucalion, and hundreds more.
-
...stories that symbolize how a handful of
-
pure Atlanteans escaped
-
to prepare for the creation
-
of the next civilization:
-
us, our modern humanity.
