Atlantis
Lost, Ancient Civilization

No one knows for sure whether Atlantis is real or just a city made up for a story. Atlantis has been found all over the world but no one knows for sure where Atlantis really is.

What is Atlantis?

Here's an article from http://www.geocities.com/rokkagurl/atlantis%5Fhome.html

Atlantis The Lost Civilisation

Atlantis is thought to be a continent in the Atlantic Ocean, that, according to Plato, an advanced civilisation, developed of some 11, 600 years ago. It is believed by some people, that there was a great disaster, causing it to sink, many miles below the surface of the water or there is the universal flood, that is written in such stories as there is in the bible.
Know one knows exactly where this 'lost' continent is found, or for that matter if it even exists.
However, in nearly all known, and recorded ancientreligons, there has been accounts of either a lost city, that has sunk due too a great disaster, or the universal flood.
Sometimes 'Atlantis' is referred to as "The Garden Of Eden" and other paradises.

What exactly does the name 'Atlantis' mean?
The word Atlantis, is if you keep to the terms in mythology it has a number of different meanings, and are often interpretable into whhich they were adapted locally. For instance, in Greek Atlas,'A', meaning 'The one who could not withstand' and 'tlas' meaning 'the skies'.
Atlas was the mythical god, referred to as the 'Pillar of Heaven' that is its support. When Atlas became overburdend with too much expected fo him, the skies fell down, burying Atlantis.
The words Atlas and Atlantis origially came from the Sanskrit, ['The Holy Language of India']
The Sanskritname for their hell is atala, meaning, 'deprived of its pillar', 'bottomless' or more preferably 'Sunken to the Bottom'.

The Soul of Atlantis is so present in all things that we do that practily our whole way of living actually began from this Lost civilisation. From our religon to magic,divination,laws and commandments to our holy scriptures, philosphy and metaphysics, maths, and music and even our poetry all come to us from Atlantis. No wonder that authors discover so many vestiges of Atlantis just about anywhere and everywhere, mistaking the copies for the real thing.
Atlantis also bring to us, through its heritage the arts and techniques such as agriculture and animal domestication and the greatist inventions including stone masory, sculpture, paper the alphabet, medicinal drugs, gunpowder and weaving.

Intriguing read! It REminded me about Linda's teaching about Atlantis - Giza Pyramid connection.

How appropriate that ATLANTIS should contain the word ATLAS, which is a word we nowadays use to describe a bound collection of MAPS!

Is Atlantis missing from our atlases?

I think Lemuria was supposed to have been a rather large bit of land that connected India and Australia, but sank over time.

I guess Lemurs came from there?

Atlantis was supposedly a more "scientifically" oriented society, using technology, crystals, traveling around the globe, etc. Lemuria was a more "natural" society ... love and peace, telepathy, no technology. Both were spiritual but in a different way.

Lemuria would seem more like the Garden of Eden to me. Everything was natural. Atlantis was more like our Western society - using science and technology to produce knowledge.

Atlantis = 'tis natal
natal sin
is sin

Interesting, huh?

Atlantean crisis was result of some approaching comet that Atlantean scientists had made miscalculations about (during construction of pyramid).

This is said to be described in Worlds in Collision by Jules Verne. Somebody already posted one topic regarding this several months earlier. I forgot subject name.

Linda has written only very few details about Atlantis in Star Signs.

Linda has written results of Atlantean crisis would not end even after Aquarian age as per astrological calculations. Though it is theoretically possible for that cataclysm to conclude in Aquarian Age. This is regarding 'second sun'.

It is scientifically possible to produce another sun by installing nuclear fission or fusion reactors in space. In this way it would be possible to place any number of suns in sky. We could even have 'third sun', 'fourth sun' and even more!

Obviously, lot of things depend on spiritual enlightment of scientists and their level of spiritual evolution.

Hello lovely people...
When I read through this fascinating topic, I am reminded of Linda's words regarding the importance of Atlantis and former Atlanteans to the time in which we are currently living. She wrote that many priests and priestesses from Atlantis who lived there before its demise and did not do enough or say enough to warn others have reincarnated to America at this time. America is, of course, the reincarnation of Atlantis. We (the children of light), as Linda foretold, are being given another chance to warn others of the destruction that our actions in the world will bring about if we don't wake up.
Here are some other tidbits to chew on:
As explained by an Egyptian priest to the Greek Solon: the final destruction of Atlantis by a series of powerful earthquakes occured approximatly 11,600 years ago and was not long after a great flood. According to Edgar Cayce: the original continent of Atlantis had broken up into a chain of 5 major islands about 52,700 years before present. A second upheaval occurred approx. 30,000 B.P. and left 3 major islands: Poseidia, Aryan and Og. Poseidia sank around 12,600 B.P. and the last inundation occurred around 11,600 B.P. Ancient Persia is referred to in Cayce readings as the "Aryan Land", and a portion of Peru as "Og" - suggesting that colonists from those Atlantean islands settled there. Other points of dispersal were Egypt, Morocco, the Pyrenees, Yucatan peninsula, Peru, and various parts of North American not blanketed by glaciers - e.g. the American southwest.
Peace to all of you.
