Finding Deeper Meaning In the Ancient Civilization
The riddle of Atlantis has captured the imaginations of devotees of esoterica and baffled archivists for more than two thousand years. With our own rapid “magical” advances in communication, New Age readers have at their disposal a wide variety of titles treating different aspects of the mystery of Atlantis, both from a scholarly perspective and online novels.
There are more thoughts regarding what the nature of this early race engendered and beneath which sea the lost continent can be recovered than nearly any other of the many stories involving prehistoric superior cultures. Yet the tale of a Utopian culture which preceded ours has lived on exactly for the reason that it appeals so strongly to the quester after knowledge.
Prolific author Edgar Cayce described Atlantis as a vast continent, rivaling the dimensions of Greenland. As it is told in the prophet’s astounding version, the people of Atlantis had mastered supernatural psychic talents and mechanisms, and seeded colonies to the peculiarly similar pyramid building cultures of the founders of Western Civilization and the pre-Columbian Americans. The topic is in many cases grouped with past lives.
It is likely the inhabitants of the island were centered on environment-friendly energy sources, growing their empire from geothermal power.
Theories regarding the position of the “Lost Continent” vary widely from the Pacific Ocean to the Western Atlantic, although, naturally most of the focus centers on well-known options which are islands in the vicinity, most notably Crete and Cyprus.
The mystery may always remain concerning what marvels the Atlanteans mastered, however, the literature seems to indicate: our species has achieved high levels of advancement rising and falling in a cycle of growth and fall, more times than we might possibly imagine, long before what we normally regard as marking beginning of history.
