Theories About Atlantis

Plato

The greek philosopher, Plato, brought to the world, the story of the lost continent of Atlantis. His
story began to unfold for him around 355 B.C. He wrote about this land called Atlantis in two of
his dialogues, Timaeus and Critias, around 370 B.C. Plato stated that the continent lay in the
Atlantic Ocean near the Straits of Gibraltar until its destruction 10,000 years previous.
Plato described Atlantis as alternating rings of sea and land,

with a palace in the center 'bull's eye'.

 The Capitol of Atlantis
Timaeus begins with an introduction, followed by an account of the creations and structure of the
universe and ancient civilizations. In the introduction, Socrates muses on the perfect society (as
described in Plato's Republic) and wonders if he and his guests could come up with a story which
puts this society into action. Critias mentions an allegedly historical tale that he would make the
perfect example, and follows up by describing Atlantis in the Critias. In his account, ancient
Athens represents the "perfect society," and Atlantis, its opponent, represents the opposite of the
"perfect" traits described in the Republic. Critias claims that his account of ancient Athens and
Atlantis stems from a visit to Egypt by the Athenian lawgiver Solon in the 6th century BC. In
Egypt, Solon met Sonchis, a priest of Thebes, who translated the history of ancient Athens and
Atlantis, recorded on pillars in Egyptian hieroglyphs, into Greek.
According to Critias, the Hellenic gods of old divided the land so that each god might own a lot;
Poseidon was appropriately, and to his liking, bequeathed the island of Atlantis. The island was
larger than Libya and Asia Minor combined, but has since been sunk by an earthquake and
became an impassable mud shoal, inhibiting travel between the Atlantic Ocean and the
Mediterranean Sea. The Egyptians described Atlantis as an island approximately 700 km across,
comprising mostly mountains in the northern portions and along the shore, and encompassing a
great plain of an oblong shape in the south "extending in one direction three thousand stadia
[about 600 km], but across the center inland it was two thousand stadia [about 400 km]."
Fifty stadia inland from the middle of the southern coast was a "mountain not very high on any
side." Here lived a native woman with whom Poseidon fell in love and who bore him five pairs
of male twins.
Atlas
The eldest of these, Atlas, was made rightful king of the entire island and the ocean (now the
Atlantic Ocean), and was given the mountain of his birth and the surrounding area as his
fiefdom. Atlas's twin Gadeirus or Eumelus in Greek, was given the easternmost portion of the
island which also lay at its northern extreme facing Gades, a town in southern Spain.
The other four pairs of twins - Ampheres and Evaemon, Mneseus and Autochthon, Elasippus and
Mestor, and Azaes (possibly the Azores) and Diaprepes - "were the inhabitants and rulers of
divers islands in the open sea."
Poseidon carved the inland mountain where his love dwelt into a palace and enclosed it with
three circular moats of increasing width, varying from one to three stadia and separated by rings
of land proportional in size. The Atlanteans then built bridges northward from the mountain,
making a route to the rest of the island. They dug a great canal to the sea, and alongside the
bridges carved tunnels into the rings of rock so that ships could pass into the city around the
mountain; they carved docks from the rock walls of the moats. Every passage to the city was
guarded by gates and towers, and a wall surrounded each of the city's rings. The walls were
constructed of red, white and black rock quarried from the moats, and were covered with brass,
tin and orichalcum, respectively.
According to Critias, 9,000 years before his lifetime, a war took place between those outside the
Pillars of Hercules and those who dwelt within them.
The Atlanteans had conquered the Mediterranean as far east as Egypt and the continent into
Tyrrhenia, and subjected its people to slavery. The Athenians led an alliance of resistors against
the Atlantean empire and as the alliance disintegrated, prevailed alone against the empire,
liberating the occupied lands. ³But afterwards there occurred violent earthquakes and floods; and
in a single day and night of misfortune all your warlike men in a body sank into the earth, and
the island of Atlantis in like manner disappeared in the depths of the sea." Plato claimed it was
somewhere outside the Pillars of Hercules, now known as the Strait of Gibraltar.
Modern scholars generally regard Plato's description of Atlantis as an invention, though its
kernel may have been formed from hazy memories of historical events such as the Thera
eruption. However, in antiquity, there were a few philosophers, geographers, and historians who
believed that Atlantis was real.
For instance, the philosopher Crantor, a student of Plato's student Xenocrates, tried to find proof
of Atlantis' existence. For his opinions we are dependent on Proclus' commentary on the
Timaeus, written in the 5th century AD. Proclus reports that Crantor said he had travelled to
Egypt and seen the same columns on which Plato had seen the history of Atlantis, written in
hieroglyphic characters.
Plato's account of Atlantis may have also inspired parodic imitation: writing only a few decades
after the Timaeus and Critias, the historian Theopompus of Chios wrote of a land beyond the
ocean known as "Meropis." This description was included in Book 8 of his voluminous
Philippica, which contains a dialogue between King Midas and Silenus, a companion of
Dionysus. Silenus describes the Meropids, a race of men who grow to twice normal size, and
inhabit two cities on the island of Meropis: Eusebes ("Pious-town") and "Machimos" ("Fighting-
town"). Hans-Gknther Nesselrath has argued that these and other details of Silenus' story are
meant as imitation and exaggeration of the Atlantis story, for the purpose of exposing Plato's
ideas to ridicule.
Zoticus, a Neoplatonist philosopher of the 3rd century AD, wrote an epic poem based on Plato's
account of Atlantis.
The 4th century AD historian Ammianus Marcellinus, relying on a lost work by Timagenes, a
historian writing in the 1st century BC, writes that the Druids of Gaul said that part of the
inhabitants of Gaul had migrated there from distant islands. Ammianus' testimony has been
understood by some as a claim that when Atlantis sunk into the sea, its inhabitants fled to
western Europe; but Ammianus in fact says that the Drasidae (Druids) recall that a part of the
population is indigenous but others also migrated in from islands and lands beyond the Rhine"
(Res Gestae 15.9), an indication that the immigrants came to Gaul from the north and east, not
from the Atlantic Ocean.
Another passage from Proclus' 5th century AD commentary on the Timaeus gives a description
of the geography of Atlantis: "That an island of such nature and size once existed is evident from
what is said by certain authors who investigated the things around the outer sea. For according to
them, there were seven islands in that sea in their time, sacred to Persephone, and also three
others of enormous size, one of which was sacred to Pluto, another to Ammon, and another one
between them to Poseidon, the extent of which was a thousand stadia; and the inhabitants of it
they add preserved the remembrance from their ancestors of the immeasurably large island of
Atlantis which had really existed there and which for many ages had reigned over all islands in
the Atlantic sea and which itself had like-wise been sacred to Poseidon. Now these things
Marcellus has written in his Aethiopica".
However, Heinz Gunther Nesselrath argues that this Marcellus, who is otherwise unknown, is
probably not a historian but a novelist.
An important Greek festival of Pallas Athene, the Panathenaea was dated from the days of king
Theseus. It consisted of a solemn procession to the Acropolis in which a peplos was carried to
the goddess, for she had once saved the city, gaining victory over the nation of Poseidon, that is,
the Atlanteans. As Lewis Spence comments, this cult was in existence already 125 years before
Plato, which means that the story could not be invented by him.
The historian Ammianus Marcellinus wrote that "the intelligentsia of Alexandria considered the
destruction of Atlantis a historical fact, described a class of earthquakes that suddenly, by a
violent motion, opened up huge mouths and so swallowed up portions of the earth, as once in the
Atlantic Ocean a large island was swallowed up. Diodorus Siculus recorded that the Atlanteans
did not know the fruits of Ceres. In fact, Old World cereals were unknown to American Indians.
Pausanias called this island "Satyrides," referring to the Atlantes and those who profess to know
the measurements of the earth.
He states that far west of the Ocean there lies a group of islands whose inhabitants are red-
skinned and whose hair is like that of the horse. (Christopher Columbus described the Indians
similarly.) A fragmentary work of Theophrastus of Lesbos tells about the colonies of Atlantis in
the sea. Hesiod wrote that the garden of the Hesperides was on an island in the sea where the sun
sets.
Pliny the Elder recorded that this land was 12,000 km distant from Cádiz, and Uba, a Numidian
king intended to establish a stock farm of purple Murex there. Diodorus Siculus declares that the
ancient Phoenicians and Etruscans knew of an enormous island outside the Pillars of Heracles.
He describes it as the climate is very mild, fruits and vegetables grow ripe throughout the year.
There are huge mountains covered with large forests, and wide, irrigable plains with navigable
rivers. Scylax of Caryanda gives similar account.
Marcellus claims that the survivors of the sinking Atlantis migrated to Western Europe.
Timagenes tells almost the same, citing the Druids of Gaul as his sources. He tries to classify the
Gallic tribes according to their origins and tells of one of these claiming that they were colonists
who came there from a remote island.
Theopompus of Chios, a Greek historian called this land beyond the ocean as "Meropis". The
dialogue between King Midas and the wise Silenus mentions the Meropids, the first men with
huge cities of gold and silver. Silenus knows that besides the well-known portions of the world
there is another, unknown, of incredible immensity, where immeasurably vast blooming
meadows and pastures feed herds of various, huge and mighty beasts. Claudius Aelianus cites
Theopompus, knowing of the existence of the huge island out in the Atlantic as a continuing
tradition among the Phoenicians or Carthaginians of Cádiz.
Perhaps the Byzantine friar Cosmas Indicopleustes understood Plato better than the ancient and
modern "Aristotelians", says Merezhkovsky.
In his Topographia Christiana he included a chart of the (flat) world: it showed an inner
continent, a compact mainland surrounded by sea, and this was surrounded by an outer ring-
shaped continent, with the inscription, "The earth beyond the Ocean, where men lived before the
Flood." The Garden of Eden is placed in the eastern end of this continent.
 Fire Crystals of Atlantis

Edgar Cayce's Channelings

The Great Crystal
Edgar Cayce first mentioned Atlantis in a life reading given in 1923, and later gave its
geographical location as the Caribbean, and proposed that Atlantis was an ancient, now-
submerged, highly-evolved civilization which had ships and aircraft powered by a mysterious
form of energy crystal. He also predicted that parts of Atlantis would rise in 1969. The Bimini
Road, a submarine geological formation just off North Bimini Island, discovered in 1968, has
been claimed by some to be evidence of the lost civilization (among many other things) and is
still being explored today.
Before the time of Eratosthenes about 250 BC, ancient Greek writers located the Pillars of
Hercules on the Strait of Sicily. This changed with Alexander the Great¹s eastward expansion and
the Pillars were moved by Eratosthenes to Gibraltar. This evidence has been cited in some
Atlantis theories, notably in Sergio Frau's work.
Thule, in the Greek and Roman mythologies, is a place, usually an island, in the far north,
perhaps Scandinavia. It was first mentioned by the Greek geographer and explorer Pytheas of
Massalía (present-day Marseille) in the 4th century BC. Pytheas claimed that Thule was six days
north of Britain, and that the midsummer sun never set there. Thule is sometimes seen to have
some commonality with Atlantis.
As continental drift became better understood and accepted during the 1950s, most "Lost
Continent" theories of Atlantis were shown to be impossible. In response, some recent theories
propose that elements of Plato's story were derived from earlier myths.

Gordon-Michael Scallion
Atlantis existed almost 250,000 years from its first age to its final days, the last of its islands
going beneath the seas around 9,000 years ago. This means that if you reincarnated into the Earth
realms during the past quarter million years, the odds are high that you lived in Atlantis for one
or more lifetimes. Since the culture of Atlantis existed through nearly 10 grand cycles of the
precession of the equinoxes, you may have spent literally hundreds of lives in Atlantis or its
colonizes.
Cycles repeat, and the same stellar energies that governed the last days of Atlantis have come full
cycle again. Atlantean souls began returning to Earth during the past century in numbers
significant enough to affect the development of many nations on Earth--especially technological
nations such as Germany, the United States, England, and Russia. Atlanteans embarked on a
project that took more than 100 of our current years to complete. Far from their Atlantean
homelands in a region they knew to be safe from the Earth changes-- they built a time capsule--a
message to help future humans understand what had happened. They knew the mistakes they had
made for themselves at that time. But it was too late to stop the destruction, for the greater Earth
changes had already come, destroying their homelands and the great civilizations they had built.
They knew earth changes would surely happen again, as the precession reached its apex once
more, 13,000 years hence. They built their time capsule to last--to warn future generations in
time to avoid the mistakes the Atlanteans made, and save civilization from destruction. The
Atlantean time capsule was not merely a building but a "machine" of sorts--and instrument
which could foretell when the same fate would come to those of the future-- the people of the
20th century. This is the Great Pyramid in Giza, Egypt.
The Great Pyramid was constructed over 12,500 years ago. It is an Atlantean instrument
conceived by Ra, a priest from the land of Dar, and engineered by Thoth (Hermes) from Atlantis.
Construction was carried out by a work force of native Egyptians and the black races of people
known as the Nubians and Zuleans who occupied the east and west banks of the southern Nile
River.
If the cycle is to repeat --the changes will come swiftly and without warning. In Atlantis 95% of
the population was lost to the waters.
Going back in time some 225,000 years-as time is reckoned from the present--we meet the entity
Om, the great leader of an ancient race known as At-el, preparing to meet not only his own
destiny but the destiny of the world. Living in the region we now know as Tibet, the At-el are
primitive by our standards. They are a brave and noble culture of hunter-gathers, small in stature,
compared to the race of giants who dominate the Earth at this time.
The At-el have skin the color of bronze, with deep penetrating eyes, that are black or gray. They
are similar in appearance to the Native Americans that lived in the Mississippi basin at the turn
of our 18th century. They stand, on average, only about 5 and 1/2 feet tall, though their heads are
larger, even, than ours today.
The At-el people lived in small family clans that banded together, making up the single tribe.
These clans have evolved directly from soul groups--entities who are reincarnated lifetime after
lifetime into the same families--though to be sure, new souls do enter, so the clans continue to
grow in size, over time, and new clans are often created.
During this time in Earth's history, the consciousness of humanity is much different than ours
today. Where today our individual memories are built up in us from birth, such is not the case
with At-el, for they are a group-memory race of people. Each member of each At-el clan is
deeply connected to their specific soul group incarnate. The total memories of the clan are
accessible to each individual in the clan, and is from birth. As each clan member experiences
new things, these are added-- or remembered --within the collective consciousness of the clan.
Individual thought is also present in the At-el people, but only as it interacts with their share of
memories. The group-memory of each clan flows and swells constantly - each experience is
accessible to all, and owned by no one.
Now, the collective memories of one clan--or soul group-- of the At-el can not be felt or seen by
those in other clans, except for the rare individual who has the gift of this unusual ability. The
entity Om is such a person, and as such, he is considered to be a leader of the people. With his
great knowledge and memory of all the clans, he may speak for the tribe to mother Earth, and to
all the elements, which the At-el see as Gods.
The Festival of Fire
It is during the festival dedicated to the element fire-- on the 10th full moon in the 13 lunar
months of the At-el year - that Om will experience something like no other At-el, indeed, like no
other entity on Earth, has ever experienced at a festival, or anywhere else for that matter. At
festival time, the collective joyful memories are often induced amongst clan members, not unlike
our experience of sharing an album of family pictures with friends and family, laughing together
and remembering the good times had by all. The whole tribe congregates at festival time,
creating, for once, a new experience of love and joy that can be shared by everyone.
For the 'celebration of fire', the largest hut --the At-el temple--is set up to receive the
congregation, and a large stone altar is placed in the center. Wood and crushed stones have been
prepared the previous day, and are now placed into the stone basin at the foot of the altar and lit.
The leader, Om, enters the altar area, and begins his dancing and chanting. It is in this manner
that Om usually leads the tribe to dance and chant and after some time signals the rest to join
with him. As the chanting increases in power, Om begins to receive visions from the 'collective
memories' of all the clans present. When Om receives these memories at the festival, he is able to
pass them on to others-- his visions become their visions. This is taught by the At-el's to be a gift
from their Gods, the great elements.
At this particular festival of fire, Om dances and chants, and as the others join in, the air is thick
with the images and joyful memories that flow from clan to clan throughout the festival circle,
and a great happiness comes over all of those in attendance.
For even when an At-el memory contains negative images, it is always interpreted as positive in
the end. Even in facing death, a clan member is seen to be overcoming obstacles through his or
her strength, bravery, or stealth. And back through the generations of the clans, each act is
remembered with fierce pride and good feelings.
As the images begin to fade this time, something startling happens. Om begins to receive new
memories--memories foreign to him and all of the clan of At-el. Those who share his thought cry
out, because they do not understand what they are seeing. The joyous dancing and chanting stops
abruptly. These visions are not from the group memories at all! These are images of places and
people never seen before - these are not of the At-el.
Nothing like this has ever happened before, and for once, the At-el are afraid. Some of the people
run from the temple. Others stand motionless, tears running down their faces. Many look to Om
for guidance. Where had these visions come from? What are they? Om, does not know, but he is
not afraid. His strength clams the people who witness it, and this spread-- as group-memory--to
the rest of the clan's people. And one by one those who remained, slowly back away from Om
and out of the temple.
After the festival, the tribe goes on with daily life as if nothing has occurred. The memory of
what happened has been stored away in the clan's consciousness - safely out of mind until
invoked at some future festival, when once again that which is not of one's own soul group may
be shared by all. Only Om is left with the strange vision still lingering in his mind. And like all
wise leaders, he is thoughtful, and waits.
The Festival of Air
One lunar cycle having passed, the next festival commences-- the festival of air. As he has many
times before, Om begins the celebration by chanting and dancing. The group-memories come to
him, as always, and the others begin to experience the shared imagery of the tribe. This time,
however--just as it occurred during the festival of Fire--images of strange people, their lands, and
their homes fill the minds of the At-el clans people. As the vision unfolds, they recognize Om in
the foreign place, and witness the strange, tall people bowing down to him--a symbol of respect
for his power-- and the fear that had been presented in the clans is gone.
With this experience, a new seed of consciousness has evolved, not only in At-el, but in all the
races of the world. For time is not linear, but circular; memory is not only a link to the past, but
to the future as well. From this point forward, each clan member would be able to recall events
yet to come--through Om's connection--and thereby become part of his new memory. Om does
not understand entirely what is occurring, but now that he has seen himself in the images, he
knows that what he has seen is the future, not an alternate past, and that he must be patient to
learn what to do next. It is his job to lead his people forward, to meet the strangers in the dream
visions,and so meet with his destiny.
Om's Vision
The temple is prepared for the water celebration, and a large stone bowl is placed in the center of
the hut. Water from the mountain streams has been placed in the basin, and the ceremonial ladles,
carved of wood, rests along side it. From these ladles, each clan member will drink to the
element water, sharing in its bounty.
Om enters the altar and begins his dance and chant. A strange look comes over him, and all those
in attendance watch him with curiosity. No one joins in. As Om continues to dance, his chanting
voice filling the temple, images unlike any he has seen before once again flood his mind. Quiet
and motionless, all of the people of the clans of At-el share his sight. Om sees some of the tall,
almost giant people of his two previous visions, and a strange building that seems to move and
sway on a great body of water such as never been witnessed by the At-el.
Om is present once again, and he lives in the floating building with the giant people. There are
many At-el present too. Abruptly, the vision changes and the large entity wearing clothing totally
foreign in style speaks to Om. He says that Om is now about to embark on a now marvelous
quest. Once completed, his journey will enable all of the world to enter an age of joyful
coexistence, and the great elements will be in harmony with all tribes everywhere.
The Quest
The entity in Om's vision instructs him to take half the At-el tribe---1,555 clans people---on a
journey that will lead to a new land located in the middle of a great sea. In order to do this,
however, they must first travel far into the west, to an unknown land called Zu.
There they are to meet a strange-looking people who sometimes live in even stranger-looking
buildings that move upon the water. Upon arriving in Zu, situated on the coast of what we now
call the Arabian Sea, Om will meet the leader of the Zu people, and from there he and the At-el
who traveled with him will be guided to the new land.
Om and his followers leave on the next lunar cycle, at the time of the festival of Earth. It is the
height of the celebration, but Om is not presiding. The evolution of consciousness has already
begun, and there are now others to lead the chanting and dancing for those that are left behind. It
is understood that this parting is joyous, and the clans that are staying behind wish well to the
ones who are going away. The travelers set out of their homeland on foot, under a full moon.
Years will pass before they reach their destination.
The summer zenith and a bright, full moon usher Om, and his surviving followers into the
foreign land they seek. At the coast, they are met by the Zulean people of the visions. They are a
tall, black-skinned people, with high foreheads, deeply recessed penetrating brown eyes, and
large lips. The colossal Olmecs statues--still found in the world today--closely resemble the
ancient race of Zu.
Although the Zu are at first fearful of the strange visitors, Om and the other At-el clans people
are quickly welcomed into the Zu culture. The leader of the Zu, called Un Towee, has
experienced a prophecy describing Om and his followers, and instructs him to aid them when
they arrived.
The Zu are a kind and loving, family-oriented people, who live by the sea in a large colony.
Beautiful gardens dot the landscape, and children everywhere are engaged in a game using long,
thin stick and a hard ball made for the sap of large tress found in the surrounding hillsides. The
sport is to hit the ball into a ring fixed on a pole at the center of each game site. Compared to the
harsh terrain of the At-el homeland, this is a lush land.
Om and Un Towee find between themselves and instant kinship, and plans are quickly made for
the journey ahead. While six full cycles of the moon come and go, the Zu--experienced seafarers
and boat builders--construct a large sailing vessel for Om and his tribe. The ship, a yawl by
today's definition, can carry all of Om's people, plus a contingency of 13 Zuleans--one for each
month of the year. These 13 are chosen to accompany the At-el as navigators and sailors, and to
discover with them this still unknown New World.
On the first new moon, at the exact moment the darken moon reaches its highest point in the sky,
Om and his shipmates set sail for the narrow body of water we now call the Red Sea. At this
point, it must be understood that the world of Om's time is geographically much different than
our own. From the Red Sea, it is possible to navigate directly into what we call the
Mediterranean, and then on into the great Atlantic Ocean, where the land that is the final
destination of his vision inspired quest lies waiting.
Six lunar months after their departure, the explorers pass into thestraits, today called Gibraltar,
and head due west. With the sun rising behind the ship in the morning of the next full moon,
theZulean lookout sights land and calls out to those down below.
Om and his people crowd to the railing to behold the distant shoreof a mighty continent. Today
all that remains of this great land are the tiny islands we know as the Azores.When the ship
reaches its destination and drops anchor some 500 yards from the shore, all aboard--Zuleans and
At-el alike--await the next high tide so that they may disembark. They prepare themselves for
landing in this new uncharted land bypraying, and by purifying themselves with smoke and oil-
baths.
At high tide, they put shore in long boats. On the beach, they conduct a ceremony in reverse to
the element water; and as Om and his people are from the land of the At-al, they name this new
land At-el-an.
Ec-Kar of Atlantis
Ec-Kar is a fifth-level initiate, High Priest of the Educational Presidium, and teacher at the most
famous University of Atlantis - Ata-Ruumn. It located on the coast of the city of Poseidia.
Poseidia is one of the five large island kingdoms of Atlantis. It is known for its riches, culture,
and temples of wisdom. Thousands arrive daily to but, sell, and trade goods, and to attend
cultural activities.

He is a man in his eighteenth cycle - each cycle consists of seven years. He is short for Atlantean,
standing at 5 feet 6 inches tall, has bronze colored skin, balding head, ad a long white beard. He
wears white robes and papyrus-reed sandals. He is telepathic and can manifest before his
students at will.
Lesson one:
The 'Hall of Ages' where Ec-kar has taught his students about their Atlantean heritage and
origins.
Lesson two:
In the 'Hall of Sciences' - Ec-kar has taught collective thought.
Lesson three: Lemuria
Ec-kar's students consider Lemuria their Motherland. He teaches them that it was in Lemuria that
the colonization of Atlantis first began. The Lemurians were like thought projections, not
physically solid. It made them higher in frequency and closer to the Creator's energy vibration
level. Their souls came to Earth to experience the physical vibration. They were large in stature,
about nine feet tall. Their skin had an aqua cast changing from blue to green in conjunction with
two seasonal cycles each year. Their faces were elongated and oval. Their eyes were large with
lids running vertically. The texture of their skin was slightly scaly. They breathed through their
skin, not lungs. The temperature of the planet, the atmosphere, the light and the orbits of the
other planets were much different then. The first Lemurians were androgynous, neither male nor
female.
It all began with the projection of 144 soul groups - representing the projection of 33 million
souls. Some of the souls came from the 'Red Planet'.
Some groups chose water, some the plant, mineral, or animal kingdoms. The greater experiments
were with the animal kingdom as this realm allowed for longer life spans and greater mobility.
The Earth had giants and elves. Some came from the stars and projected into physical form,
Pleiades and Sirius. They came in space craft different than those of the Atlanteans, called Valix.
Lesson four:
The Creator formed all souls in his image, as spiritual beings. As the souls reached out to
experience different realities they began to define themselves by groups, according to their
particular experience. Within this structure each soul group had the ability to chose the physical
form it wished to express. Once a soul group was chosen, the soul groups were able to increase
their numbers by replicating themselves, much as a single celled life-form divides again and
again. Each cell remains a portion of, and a duplicate of, the original.
Ec-Kar teaches that the Earth has seen many civilizations - some of who have come from other
worlds to learn and experience.
Lesson Five: Hall of Images
A virtual-reality library where all Atlantean history may be accessed as holographic imagery.
The sea fills the Halls of Ata-Ruumn, bringing with it the aroma of fresh oranges, just delivered
by-transport from the colonies. Students move briskly through the corridors, disappearing into
respective halls. Ec-kar's pupils wait at the entrance to the Hall of Images. At the appointed time,
their teacher arrives, and they follow him silently into the Hall.
It is a huge room--a perfect cube, one hundred feet in every direction--and fashioned from
limestone blocks. Ec-Kar bows gently to his students, acknowledging their presence, and moves
directly to a control instrument on one side of the great room. Without a word, he places his
hands over a panel carved with strange symbols his students have never seen before.
He selects one of the symbols and passes his small chubby hands over it; an expectant silence
fills the Hall. Following Ec-kar's gaze they turn towards the center of the room, watching as the
bright clear light gradually appears in the empty air at the middle of the space. As the light grows
in intensity, colors appear and radiate outward, up to the ceiling, - a hundred feet high - and out
to the walls, bathing the students and Ec-Kar in a rainbow glow. In a matter of seconds the light
disappears, suddenly replaced by what appears to be an enormous, and very solid, dome-shaped
structure.
Some of the students turn towards their teacher questioningly unable to accept what is occurring.
Others just stare. The dome is a golden vision, slowly rotating, as if barely floating above the
floor. The massive structures seems immovable; yet, it has materialized from thin air and it spins,
propelled by an unseen force. To these students, many from less advanced cultures of their
regions, what appears before them is unbelievable. For here in the grand Hall of Images, is the
secret of Atlantis' power - the Dome of Light.
Ec-Kar moves slowly towards the dome, and upon reaching it, turns to face his class. "My
friends, the purpose of our visit to the Hall today is to prepare you for a different type of journey
than any of you have ever experienced. At our last meeting, I said that you would have an
opportunity to recall your soul's journey through many lifetimes. But in order for this to occur,
you must first be well-prepared for such a journey - just as many of you prepared for your travels
from the distant lands you call home to At-Ruumn."
Ec-Kar is standing only a few feet from the Dome of Light. Although the class now understands
that the dome is only a holographic image, it still looks very real, and the size of it - hovering as
it does behind Ec-kar - seems rather menacing, dwarfing their teacher's otherwise imposing
stature.
He continues. "For thousands of years, the Dome of Light has enabled our land to enjoy its great
riches. And while we have shared many of the fruits derived from this technology with those
outside our land, we cannot share its specific engineering principles. Shortly, you will understand
why. But, in order to comprehend what I am about to share with you, you will need to stretch
your minds to accept possibilities which are, perhaps, beyond your wildest imaginings.
"Let us begin today's lesson. For every energy there is an equal and opposite energy. Just, as the
day brings light, the opposite is true for night. Now, between light and dark there is a neutral, or
transference point. It is within this transference point that the secret technology of the Dome of
Light may be found.
Let us look at one of Nature's marvelous examples of the energy transference, gravity. The Earth
receives various emanations from the sun and sends back to the sun its opposite force. The
gravity we all take for granted on Earth is one effect of the rays moving through the sun - Earth
continuum.
"The Dome of Light works in a similar fashion by capturing and holding the energy at the
moment of transference between star energy and its converted opposite. The captured energy is
stored in containment chambers buried deep beneath the Dome to use any way we choose."
Ec-Kar pauses, to see that the class understands, before he continues.
"Through the tuning devices we use aboard our Valix craft, and in our homes and buildings, the
Dome of Light transmits the power generated via ultraviolet waves, thus propelling our ships,
cooling and heating our cities, or allowing for communications. The power is immediately
transferred, whatever the need. However, there is a dark side to this great invention as well, for it
is also a weapon of imaginable power.
"Now, please observe that the dome is golden in color. It is constructed from poured granite and
lined with an organic material capable of containing the enormous energies accumulated inside.
"Watch now what happens to the top portion of the dome."
Ec-Kar returns to the panel, makes an adjustment at the controls, and the image reacts. Slowly,
an opening appears in the top center of the dome and a green light flow into it from above.
"You are now viewing the Dome of Light in operation. I this way, it captures the solar
emanations within its field.
The students watch the hologram in amazement, as Ec-kar continues his lessons.
"The reason we are here is not only to introduce you to Atlantean technology, but to let you
experience another benefit of this great power - soul travel.
Together, as time- travelers, we will now return to a period of history when this Dome of Light
was used to create what - even now - you would consider miracles. Realize that these 'miracles'
are still possible today, but due to your caste system they are not available to any of you, your
families, or indeed your countries. In fact, even my own caste position enforces certain
restrictions pertaining to this technology. This is simply the way of things.
"While relatively small, the image of the Dome that you now look upon represents, nevertheless,
a power source unequaled on our planet. This technology is trusted only to those in the Energy
Ministry caste. Since its invention, it has brought both miracles, and destruction to not only our
land, but the world. I tell you this, my friends, so that you may understand that with power comes
responsibility - one that we as a nation did not always follow."
A student raises her hand.
"Yes, Ma-Riel?"
"I have observed the Valix craft many times, and that is does not have an operator of any type.
How can this be? And how is it that it runs so silently, floating above the ground as it does?
Those my from country say it is magic, and that the Atlantean magicians are to be feared."
Ec-Kar moves closer to the class as he responds. "Ma-Riel, that which is misunderstood often
creates fear. 'Magic' is merely a way of explaining what is feared . . .the unknown."
"How does the Valix, the people-transporter, work?" asks Ma-Riel.
Ec-Kar responds, "The Valix, and indeed all Atlantean technologies, operate through the Dome
of Light. Each transport-vessel draws energy from the nearest Dome. Once accessed, power is
transferred to the 'motivational instruments' inside the Valix craft. Amplifiers are embedded
throughout the outer skin of the vessel, and these circuits create an opposing gravitational force
that interacts with the Earth. This lifts the craft. For most uses, the Valix are automated and
follow preprogrammed routes. No operator is required."
Jalaum for the Ur, raises his hand and asks, "Ec-Kar, is there a distance limit for the
transporters?"
"For ground transports, remote operation is possible to the horizon. For air transports, the outer
atmosphere is the only limitation for the ring of the Domes created in our land serve as a
network. Each contains the others."
"The Dome of light was originally designed to communicate with intelligences existing in
alternative realities, and ultimately, with the Creator."
"Did this work?" asks another student.
"Yes. We were able to follow a departed Atlantean from the moment of his death to his next
reality. We broke contact only just prior to his return to Earth in a new incarnation. You must
realize that the Dome of Light, while it may appear to be a marvel to you, is simply an
instrument that allows us to do what our ancestors accomplished with the power of only their
minds. For in the early days of Earth, we were much closer to the Creator."
"What other ways is the Dome of Light used?" asks a pupil named Panter.
Ec-Kar gesturing to the east, says, "Though we are but a few minutes walk from the ocean here,
the temperature outside is quite high today. Yet it is comfortable 70 degrees everywhere within
these Halls! As I have shared, light has its opposite, and energy exists in both, so is the case in all
Nature. Through a process called hysteresis, the temperature is controlled to a very fine degree.
The same process is used in all Atlantean structures - from the Valix transporters, the homes and
buildings."
"Are there educational uses? can the Dome make us smarter?" asks Du-Ta-Rahn.
"Intelligence is made up of ingredients, like a cake. Is it part genetic, part experience, part diet,
part environment, and part soul-development. All of these parts, however, can be overridden by
will. Your will. Do not ever allow yourself to be confused on this important point: whatever you
will yourself to do or to be, you shall become. It is one of the divine laws of Nature.
"There are several educational uses for the Domes. Depending upon an individual's caste, for
example, the Textile Ministry may allow for a robe of learning to be assigned. These are woven
so as to make the wearer into a receiver. Information, which is beamed throughout the 'Dome
network' each day by the Presidium, is amplified by the robe's fibers.
These couple directly with the body's neuro-pathways or meridians. The short-term memory
zones are stimulated, and the information impresses upon them. If the wearer recalls a particular
piece of that new information within the day, it is transferred to a middle-zone, and finally, the
individual continues to work with the new information. If he does not work with it, it will fade,
just as dreams do. For this is the same portion of the brain used by the souls to review its daily
experiences, what we learn we must use, and practice, in order to keep it. Without practice, all
wisdom is lost.

Long ago there was an planet called Atlantis which housed a civilization of highly evolved
beings. Their planet was destroyed about 90,000 years ago. Many fled to Earth, living on the
surface of the planet or above in spaceships. The population was approximately seven and a half
million people.
Crystals played a major role in their lives. Atlanteans had many subterranean tunnels which
contained giant fire crystals, their main source of power. These were quartz crystals - 20 feet tall
X 8 feet in diameter - three crystals set in triangular patterns. Giant copper rods conducted
energies from crystals creating a grid which had various purposes. Cities were domed with force
fields of energies, set into place containing the vibrations of the atmosphere to the many large
buildings. A main healing temple was circular with a 60 foot diameter. The domed ceiling
contained dozens of crystals that were not so much used for healing and balance to ward off
illness. A Temple of Sound was used to aligned the body's energy centers (chakras).
The Pyramids of Atlantis were three sided and generally made of crystals. They were used as
antennas to draw and amplify energies from the universe. There were about 100 of these edifices.
They were set up in various triangulation patterns all over the planet. They set a global grid work
of magnetic energy dividing the planet into different geographic magnetic centers -for population
concentration - and to hold the planet in its orbital path. Most of these pyramids, physically do
not exist any more. Those that do exist are buried in different areas. The centers where the
pyramids exist energetically draw people to them for magnetic initiation - a total alignment of
etheric crystalline centers for healing. Pregnant women were placed in a chamber for 24 hours
where a crystal sent information of a higher frequency to the fetus.
Children remained with their parents for the first two years of their lives. They were then taken
to a central compound where they lived all together with group mothers who raised the children.
All of the children got to play with all of the parents every day. There was no child abuse or
feelings of lack of love. At adulthood children did not have guilt to care take parents.
Psychologically parents and children were far more adjusted then they are today.
People lived in communities of attached homes, their design based on the use of the building and
geometric construction. The tallest building was about 12-14 stories high. Healing centers were
triangular in shape. Average buildings were 2-3 stories high. Communication was telepathic,
verbal, or tones. Large quartz crystals often amplified the frequencies and vibrations.
When a person was old and their body could no longer function - they would lie down and go to
sleep - never to wake again. That person's soul had peace in its relationship with God and
understood that the soul would return. There was no fear of death. The physical body is nothing
more than a manifesting consciousness tool of the soul. It is the vehicle through which the soul
expresses. When the soul is finished what it is here to do it can leave. It is within our capacity to
close our eyes and for the soul to leave. There is no reason to have prolonged illness and
suffering. That is just part of the soul's fear of leaving.
Biogenetic experiments created mythological beings; mermaids, Cyclops, gargoyles, etc.
Duality existed. Negativity and pole shifts caused the downfall of Atlantis.

Francis Bacon's 1627 novel The New Atlantis describes a utopian society, called Bensalem,
located off the western coast of America. A character in the novel gives a history of Atlantis that
is similar to Plato's, and places Atlantis in America. It is not clear whether Bacon means North or
South America.
In middle and late 19th century, several serious Mesoamerican scholars, starting with Charles
Etienne Brasseur de Bourbourg, and including Edward Herbert Thompson and Augustus Le
Plongeon proposed that Atlantis was somehow related to Mayan and Aztec culture.
During the late 19th century, ideas about the mythical nature of Atlantis were combined with
other lost continent myths such as Lemuria by popular figures in the occult and the growing new
age phenomenon.
Helena Blavatsky, the Grandmother of the New Age movement, writes in The Secret Doctrine
that the Atlanteans were cultural heroes (contrary to Plato who describes them mainly as a
military threat), and are the fourth "Root Race", succeeded by the Aryan race.
In the 19th century Blavatsky gave impetus to the idea of an Atlantic continent running through
the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. She gave some brief history of its inhabitants, identified its
location, the times of the sinking of the larger part of the continent, and the time of the last
submergence of its principle remaining island. She also specified some land still in existence as
land today that was part of Atlantis then. She gave various cultural arguments for its existence.
The science of her day was quite inhospitable to the idea of a continent in the middle of the
Atlantic Ocean because it was committed to the idea of extreme gradualism. It was Blavatsky
who brought the attention of the western world to Atlantis. This has been almost entirely
overlooked. Blavatsky mentioned Atlantis in her introductory book, Isis Unveiled published in
1877. The book was sold out on the first day of its release to the public.
Five years later Ignatius Donnelly published his well researched "Atlantis: Antediluvian world".
He is usually given credit as the "Father of modern Atlantis research". No doubt from the close
time connection, he was inspired by Blavatsky. She should be acknowledged as the inspiration of
the modern Atlantis movement. In 1888 Blavatsky published her magnum opus, The Secret
Doctrine. This is a difficult work - but most seminal. It is encyclopedic. In it she gives many
more details of Atlantis.
Her most specific comment showed a knowledge of the Ocean bottom unheard of by anybody in
her time. Notably Challenger discovered the Mid-Atlantic ridge. At Tristan D'Hunca the ridge
had become so small as to be undetectable by their method. Blavatsky asserted that if it could be
traced further it would be found to continue around under Africa and up into the Indian Ocean.
Today we have confirmed the Ridge continues exactly as she claimed as a tectonic plate
boundary.
Blavatsky asserted that Atlantis had been centered on the Mid-Atlantic ridge. She said that Plato
- as an initiate required by pledge to withhold certain information - had purposefully combined
the older larger continent sized land mass with what was the remaining island. We see evidence
of this combining if we examine the Greek and the English.
She also asserted that the larger land mass had extended over a much larger area and even
reached from the Western Hemisphere to the African continent. So the recent discoveries of a
possible Atlantis-style civilization off Cuba are included in her view of Atlantis. The discoveries
in the Atlantic support her view. She asserted that references to Atlantis abound around the
world's older nations. That was unexpected and highly "undocumented" in her time. Now those
have been traced and found.
In 1940, Lewis Spence published the now classic "Shadow of Atlantis". Indeed Atlantis had cast
its shadow just as she had claimed. In 1882, one of her teachers had written a letter to Sinnett and
given the exact year of the sinking of Atlantis. It was 9,564 BC. Now, more than one century
later, hard science has averaged together time estimates from many scientific sources and
obtained a date that is very close to the date given in 1882. This scientific estimate is detailed in
Cataclysm.
The Piri Reis Map enters into the controversy over Atlantis, especially in considering the view
that Atlantis was in Antarctica. That map could only have been made with knowledge of how the
Earth looks from a high altitude. Blavatsky had asserted that the Atlanteans know of flying
machines and that knowledge of such machines had passed on to the Hindus. The odd fact of the
high altitude of the Piri Reis maps confirms her statement. In the Secret Doctrine, Blavatsky had
noted the relevance of "Phaeton" or "Typhon". Now the scientific evidence has placed very
meaningful particular importance on these "myths". Blavatsky also asserted that there had been
much prior civilization prior to Atlantis.
We are at the close of the cycle of 5,000 years of the present Aryan Kali Yuga or dark age. This
will be succeeded by an age of light. Even now under our very eyes, the new Race or Races are
preparing to be formed, and that is in America that the transformation will take place, and has
already silently commenced. This Race will be altered in mentality and will move toward a more
perfect spiritual existence.
That the periodical sinking and reappearance of mighty continents, now called Atlantean and
Lemurian by modern writers, is not fiction will be demonstrated. It is only in the 20th century
that portions, if not the whole, of the present work will be vindicated. A world destruction as
happened to Atlantis 11,000 years ago... instead of Atlantis all of England and parts of NW
European coast will sink into the sea, in contrast, the sunken Azores region, the Isle of
Poseidonis, will again be raised from the sea. Lemuria was destroyed by fire. Atlantis was
destroyed by water- the Flood and the destruction of the fourth race and of the last antediluvian
monster-animals.
Aleister Crowley wrote an esoteric history of Atlantis, although this may be intended more as
metaphor than as fact.
The concept of Atlantis also entered National Socialist (Nazi) theory through Theosophy and
Anthroposophy. In 1938, Heinrich Himmler organized a search in Tibet to find a remnant of the
white Atlanteans. According to Julius Evola (Revolt Against the Modern World, 1934), the
Atlanteans were Hyperboreans - Nordic supermen who originated on the North pole. Similarly,
Alfred Rosenberg (The Myth of the Twentieth Century, 1930) spoke of a "Nordic-Atlantean" or
"Aryan-Nordic" master race. (Nordic aliens)

Similarly, Alfred Rosenberg (The Myth of the Twentieth Century, 1930) spoke of a "nordic-
atlantean" or "aryan-nordic" master race.
In the mid-1940s, J. R. R. Tolkien reshaped his legendarium to contain elements of an Atlantis
myth . The Lord of the Rings (1954/5) contains only obscure references to this, and the myth was
published only posthumously, in the Silmarillion (1977).
Jane Roberts' work also contains references to Atlantis.
Rudolf Steiner wrote of the cultural evolution of Atlantis.
