An understanding of the Greek Myths are as follows.
All the Gods and goddesses and wars of Greek mythology are not LITERAL of course, and neither are they fairy tales, but stories that reveal deep truths within the human mind.
Just like the Bible it uses fantastic stories of god killing tribes and commanding dead animals, talking snakes and donkeys, that's because it's mythology, and these things happen in Mythology.
consider the following statement that sums up the entire Bible
"your enemies shall be of your own house"
of course your own house, your brain/mind.
The entire Bible is a war between the higher and lower mind, and it's the same in GREEK mythology, the same wars, they are all INTERNAL, and all the myths are in the vernacular of the battlefield, because this is where the final battle is fought, in the MIND. Allow no Trojan Horse to enter your thought patters, your subconscious mind. The revelations story is about overcoming the EGO/satan.
Below is the myth of Atlantis, yes it's a myth.
see how clever the Greeks were, in describing, the higher mind/Zeus, destroying the lower mind and casting beneath the sea. This is a metaphor for overcoming the EGO/MIND.
The whole Greek myths are about this war, and winning, rising to a higher consciousness (Atlantis Rising).
The Internal war.
According to Greek mythology, Atlantis was an ancient island (dating back to at least 1400 BC) in the Mediterranean Sea near what we now know as Greece. Poseidon, who was god of the sea and brother to Zeus (the top god in Greek mythology), appointed his son Atlas as ruler of Atlantis.
The vast island was bigger than the continents we know today and it prospered as a peaceful, wealthy, powerful and sophisticated place. Unfortunately all this good fortune made Atlantis's people feel superior and had them acting spoiled and even lazy.
Such behavior angered the gods, who decided to punish Atlantis by destroying it with the power of earthquakes and volcanoes. At the end of one day and one night Atlantis was flooded and buried beneath the ocean, never to be seen again.
while so many people and so much time has been wasted by researchers trying to find the lost city of Atlantis, it's obviously just a myth.Its the lower ego mind.
The earthquakes and such describe the ascension of the Kundalini energy rising to the spine and the pineal gland.
of the Cyclops myth, and lightning bolts from Zeus, destroying the lower quality.
Notice the city of Atlantis is powerful spoiled and lazy, this is the mind controlled by the lower Ego. No real Atlantis except in your own mind.
ATLANTIS is the human brain
“The religion of the Atlante-ans, as Plato tells us, was pure and simple; they made no regular sacrifices but fruits and flowers; they worshiped the sun. In Peru a single deity was worshiped, and the sun, his most glorious work, was honored as his representative. Quetzalcoatl, the founder of the Aztecs, condemned all sacrifice but that of fruits and flowers.
The first religion of Egypt was pure and simple; its sacrifices were fruits and flowers; temples were erected to the sun, 'Ra', throughout Egypt. In Peru the great festival of the sun was called 'Ra'-mi. The Phoenicians worshiped Baal and Moloch; the one represented the beneficent, and the other the injurious powers of the sun.”
Ignatius Donnelly, “Atlantis and the Antediluvian World”
Homer, Plutarch, and many other ancient writers mention islands situated in the Atlantic "several thousand stradia from the Pillars of Hercules." Pillars, obelisks, and towers have all been shown to have Masonic significance. Hercules performing his twelve labors has been shown to reference the Sun, the mushroom, and consciousness in general.
The Maya have much in common with the Indians as well. As to the similarities between the Mayan and Hindu religion and language, Hinduism Today says, ‘Chacla in Mayan refers to force centers of the body similar to the chakras of Hinduism. K’ultanlilni in Mayan refers to the power of God within man which is controlled by the breath, similar in meaning to kundalini.
Mayan chilambalam refers to a sacred space, as does Tamil Chidambaram. Yok’hah in Maya means ‘on top of truth,’ similar to yoga in Sanskrit.’ The Maya also had the same goddess Maya, mother of the gods and man, as in India. Furthermore, the legendary founder of the Maya was the god Votan or Wotan, a name identical to the god of Teutonic tribes. There are many such correspondences between the Old and New Worlds.”
Acharya S., “The Christ Conspiracy” (276)
So the Mayan and Indian words chakra, kundalini, and yoga share identical sounds and meaning. The word “Maya” means “Illusion” in both languages as well and refers to our material existence, which both cultures believe to be illusory. They believe, as all ancient cultures believed, that we are immaterial souls having a physical experience.
In Sanskrit, “Atl” means “to support or uphold” as Atlas was said to hold the world on his shoulders.
Alonso de Molina’s 16th century dictionary of the Nahuatl language, “Vocabulario En Lengua Mexicana y Castellana” says that, "The words Atlas and Atlantic have no satisfactory etymology in any language known to Europe. They are not Greek, and cannot be referred to any known language of the Old World. But in the Nahuatl language we find immediately the radical 'a', 'atl', which signifies water, war, and the top of the head.”
Why the top of the head?
The word “atl” is found in it's branches, like his arms, supported the heavens. The oak’s association with Atlas implies a primeval tree cult or pillar cult, a memory of it surviving in Kritias, Plato’s Atlantis account, when he described a ceremonial column at the very midpoint of the Temple of Poseidon, itself located at the center of Atlantis. The Atlanteans’ oldest, most hallowed laws were inscribed on its exterior and sacrificial bull’s blood was shed over it by all 10 kings of Atlantis in that civilization’s premiere ritual.”
Frank Joseph, “The Atlantis Encyclopedia” (208)
The pineal gland (6th chakra, the third-eye) lies at the geometrical center point of the brain. Plato’s account of Atlantis described a “ceremonial column at the very midpoint of the Temple of Poseidon, itself located at the center of Atlantis.”
The ceremonial column (Oak Tree, Tree of Life, Staff of Moses etc.) is the human spine with 33 vertebrae. The actual medical term for the 33rd vertebrae which holds up the skull is “Atlas,” same as the King of Atlantis.
In Atlantean mythology, Atlas holds up the world or the heavens and in your body the Atlas vertebrae holds up your head/mind. In Atlantean mythology, Atlas has 7 daughters who spend all their time guarding and dancing around the Tree of Life; In your body you have 7 energy centers (chakras) dancing around your spine.
Plato described Atlantis as being shaped like three concentric circles of land separated by concentric circles of water. In other words the shape of a bull's-eye. Why would the center of a target be called a “bull’s-eye” anyway?
The Atlas vertebra holds up your brain, your “third eye” is at the center of your brain, and the center of Atlantis is a “bull’s-eye.” In fact, your skull, which Atlas holds up, is shaped just like Atlantis is described. At the center point is your third eye.
The third eye is separated and surrounded completely by water/fluid. Next is the cerebral cortex, the meat of the brain. Then around that is a layer of constantly flowing/pumping blood. And lastly around that is the skull.
Plato said sacrificial bull’s blood was shed over the exterior of the Temple of Poseidon, which is also consistent with the blood that flows over the exterior of the brain.
“Bulls were associated with divine regents in Sumer, Egypt, Assyria, Minoan Crete, Greece, Rome, Iberia, and Ireland. All of these cultures featured traditions of a great deluge from which their ancestors came with all the accouterments of a high civilization, including, most importantly, matters of kingship. In each people, their king was ritually identified with a sacred bull, because it was important for a leader to identify with the tremendous strength and aggressiveness epitomized by such an animal.
In preCeltic Ireland, the new monarch had to undergo a ceremonial bath of bull’s broth, which he then drank from an Atlantean-like golden cup. The Egyptian Hape, better remembered by his Greek name, Apis, was the sacred bull of Memphis. Like the bulls at the Temple of Poseidon, he was allowed to roam free in a courtyard of the temple.”
Frank Joseph, “The Atlantis Encyclopedia” (78)
If the Temple of Poseidon (between your “temples”) is your brain then Atlantis’ bull’s eye is your third-eye/pineal gland which literally “roams free in the courtyard of the temple” because it is surrounded by water/fluid.
Bull's eyes also just happen to be red, white and black, the same color as Santa, the Amanita Muscaria, and the flag of Egypt.
“In this West African version of the flood, Obatala is the Yoruba version of the Greco-Atlantean Atlas: Oba denotes kingship, while atala means ‘white.’ Yoruba priests wear only white robes while worshipping him, and images of the god are offered only white food. Among these sacrifices are white kola and goats, recalling the Atlantean goat cults known to the ancient Canary Islanders, off the coast of northwest Africa, and the Iberian Basque.
Obatala’s chief title is ‘King of Whiteness,’ because he is revered as the white skinned ‘Ancient Ruler’ and ‘Father’ of the Yoruba race by a native woman, Oduduwa. Like Atlas, Obatala was a giant in the middle of the sea, and the ‘seven chains’ which signal the end of the Deluge may coincide with the seven Pleiades, associated throughout much of world myth with the Flood’s conclusion.
Directly across the Atlantic Ocean, in the west, the Aztec version of Atlantis – Aztlan was referred to as the ‘White Island.’ In the opposite direction, in the east, Hindu traditions in India described ancestral origins from Attala, likewise known as the ‘White Island.’”
Frank Joseph, “The Atlantis Encyclopedia” (209)
Is this where we get our legends of an Ivory Tower on an island? Was it a real tower on a real island or our ivory spines on the islands of our bodies? Or was it both?
“‘The White Island’ described in the great Indian epic Mahabharata and in the epic poems, the Puranas, as the mountainous homeland of a powerful and highly civilized race located in ‘the Western Sea’ on the other side of the world from India … Atala itself sank in a violent storm.”
Frank Joseph, “The Atlantis Encyclopedia” (33)
“The nations on the west of the Atlantic look to the 'east' for their place of origin; while on the east of the Atlantic they look to the 'west': thus all the lines of tradition converge upon Atlantis. But here is the same testimony that in the Garden of Eden there were four rivers radiating from one parent stream.
And these four rivers, as we have seen, we find in the Scandinavian traditions, and in the legends of the Chinese, the Tartars, the Singhalese, the Thibetians, the Buddhists, the Hebrews, and the Brahmans. And not only do we find this tradition of the Garden of Eden in the Old World, but it meets us also among the civilized races of America. The elder Montezuma said to Cortez, "Our fathers dwelt in that happy and prosperous place which they called Aztlan, which means 'whiteness.’”
–Ignatius Donnelly, “Atlantis: The Antediluvian World”
The Bible stories featuring a garden, tree, serpent, and golden apples are known the world over and they originate from the Atlantean legend. “The history of the old testament is the history of Atlantis.”
Comyns Beaumont
“The American Tree of Life The Toltec legends speak of a garden, a tree, a serpent and a woman that was the mother of all mankind. They also speak of a race of giants that were in the world from the earliest times.”
Ignatius Donnelly, “Atlantis and the Antediluvian World”
“(The) Tree of Life (is) a mythic allusion to the human spinal column as the bearer of seven major energy centers known as chakras, or spiritual ‘wheels’ in Indian kundalini yoga. The concept originated in Atlantis, with its seven Hesperides, daughters of Atlas, and the golden apples of eternal life they guarded.”
Frank Joseph, “The Atlantis Encyclopedia” (272)
"Mythology often appears to be describing body sensations when it speaks of serpents, as well as describing the human spine, which can be symbolized as the tree or twin trees or the serpent or twin serpents.
The serpent image connected with the spine has its best-known representation in the Indian Kundalini mythology.
Chetwynd (1982) describes body symbolism that is related to the serpent as ‘connected with the spinal column, which joins the physical nature (the genitals) to the spiritual nature (the head).’”
Gerry Anne Lenhart, “The Genesis Model”
In other words the “fall” and the “flood” whether or not they happened physically, likely happened within an individual or on a spiritual level.
And Atlantis, whether or not was a real island continent heading an advanced global civilization, likely also referenced the soul, the pineal gland, and chakra system within the individual.
The most sacred secrets of the Masons and world Royalty pertain to the chakra/energetic system, the Amalita Muscaria, DMT, and Kundalini yoga’s activation of the crown chakra.
“A new center – presently dormant in the average man or woman – has to be activated and a more powerful stream of psychic energy must rise into the head from the base of the spine to enable the human consciousness to transcend the normal limits.
This is the final phase of the present evolutionary impulse in man.
The cerebrospinal system of man has to undergo a radical change, enabling consciousness to transcend the limits of the highest intellect.
Here reason yields to intuition and revelation appears to guide the steps of humankind.
This mechanism, known as Kundalini, is the real cause of all so-called spiritual and psychic phenomena, the biological basis of evolution and development of personality, the secret origin of all esoteric and occult doctrines, the master key to the unsolved mystery of creation, the inexhaustible source of philosophy, art, and science, and the fountainhead of all religious faiths, past, present and future.”
Dr. Lee Sanella, “The Kundalini Experience”
“So what is meant by the term Kundalini experience? Kundalini is a Sanskrit word that can be translated as ‘coiled up.’ Kundalini is represented in many Tantrik illustrations as a sleeping serpent, coiled 3 ½ times, at the base of the spinal cord.
REV. 11:9 From among the peoples, tribes, languages, and nations people will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days, and will not allow their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb.
The popular view of Kundalini is that it is a dormant power that lies waiting to be unleashed, by means of various practices. The ‘serpent power,’ once awakened, is coaxed up the central channel of the spine, entering the chakras (psychic energy centers) until it reaches the Crown chakra and the yogi achieves ‘illumination.’”
Phil Hine, “Kundalini, A Personal Approach”
“The caduceus symbol of coiling snakes is thought to be an ancient symbolic representation of Kundalini physiology. The concept of Kundalini comes from yogic philosophy of ancient India and refers to the mothering intelligence behind yogic awakening and spiritual maturation.
It might be regarded by yogis as a sort of deity, hence the occasional capitalization of the term. Within a western frame of understanding it is often associated with the practice of contemplative or religious practices that might induce an altered state of consciousness, either brought about spontaneously, through a type of yoga, through psychedelic drugs, or through a near-death experience
According to the yogic tradition Kundalini is curled up in the back part of the root chakra in three and one-half turns around the sacrum.
Yogic phenomenology states that kundalini awakening is associated with the appearance of bioenergetic phenomena that are said to be experienced somatically by the yogi. This appearance is also referred to as ‘pranic awakening’
Prana is interpreted as the vital, life sustaining force in the body. Uplifted or intensified life energy is called pranotthana and is supposed to originate from an apparent reservoir of subtle bioenergy at the base of the spine. This energy is also interpreted as a vibrational phenomena that initiates a period, or a process of vibrational spiritual development …
Kundalini is mainly associated with Hinduism. However, Kundalini as a spiritual experience is thought to have parallels in many of the mystical and Gnostic traditions of the world's great religions.
Many factors point to the universality of the phenomenon. The early Christians might have referred to the concept as 'pneuma', and there are some recent parallels in contemporary Christian Charismatic 'Holy Ghost' phenomena.
Religious studies also note parallels in Quakerism, Shakerism, Judaic Shuckling (torso rocking prayer), the swaying zikr and whirling dervish of Islam, the quivering of the Eastern Orthodox hesychast, the flowing movements of tai chi, the ecstatic shamanic dance, the ntum trance dance of the Bushman, Tibetan Buddhist tummo heat as practiced by Milarepa, and the indically derived Andalusian flamenco (Sovatsky, 1998).
Kundalini practice is centerfold in Japan's Aum Shinrikyo group and Kundaliniyoga is also one of the stages the practitioner is able to achieve.”
Crystalinks, “Kundalini” (http://www.crystalinks.com/kundalini.html)
“The ancient yogis and sages who developed Kundalini Yoga had a deep respect for the Creator of this human body. They knew, in their profound devotion and worship, that so perfect a Creator could only have created perfection in design, function and potential. Based on this respect, they sought knowledge of the totality of the human being. They researched the human ability to maintain good health, increase vitality, open consciousness and expand the experience of the excellence of human life.
Their research gave them a great understanding of the nervous system, glandular system, organ system, energy system, and brain. They learned how blood, nerves, muscles, organs, and glands all work together.
They investigated the seen and the unseen, and the interrelationships between the physical and the subtle. From this research they developed Kundalini Yoga. Kundalini Yoga is a highly evolved technology based on a through understanding of the ecology of the human body, how the breath affects the thinking, how the angle of a finger affects the pituitary gland.
This technology works with the systems of the human body using the body’s own means. Hand position, breath, posture, sound, and motion are employed in various ways to create the optimum balance among all the body’s components … until recent times these techniques had been secret, taught only to a chosen few.”
Harijot Kaur Khalsa, “Kundalini Yoga, Physical Wisdom”
“Contemporary spiritual literature often notes that the chakras, as described in the esoteric kundalini documents, bear a strong similarity in location and number to the major endocrine glands, as well as nerve bundles called ganglions. One speculation is that the traditional practices have formalized a method for stimulating the endocrine glands to work in a different mode which has a more direct effect on consciousness, perhaps ultimately by stimulating the release of DMT by the pineal gland, which may be analogous to the 'pineal chakra'.
The late Itzhak Bentov studied Kundalini from an engineering perspective. According to Bentov (1990), the 7.5 Hz oscillation of the heart muscle rhythm induces mechanical Hz frequencies in the brain, that in turn create a stimulus equivalent of a current loop.
The nerve endings in that loop correspond to the route through which the Kundalini ‘rises.’ This current polarizes the brain part through which it flows in a homogeneous way, effectively releasing tremendous amounts of stress from the body.
The body then becomes an effective antenna for the 7.5 Hz frequency, which is one of the resonant frequencies of the ionosphere. In layman's terms, you then pick up information from the air. This might account for repeated descriptions of heightened senses as a result of rising Kundalini, e.g. as described by Yogananda:
‘The whole vicinity lay bare before me. My ordinary frontal vision was now changed to a vast spherical sight, simultaneously all-perceptive.’
Egyptian one tenth, same as bible?
"I was in mourning on my throne, Those of the palace were in grief….because Hapy had failed to come in time. In a period of seven years, Grain was scant, Kernels were dried up…
Every man robbed his twin…Children cried…The hearts of the old were needy…Temples were shut, Shrines covered with dust, Everyone was in distress….I consulted one of the staff of the Ibis, the Chief lector-priest of Imhotep, son of Ptah South-of-the-Wall….
He departed, he returned to me quickly, He let me know the flow of Hapy…Learn the names of the gods and goddesses of the temple of Khnum: Satis, Anukis, Hapy, Shu, Geb, Nut, Osiris, Horus, Isis, Nepththys…
As I slept in peace the god stood before me, I propitiated him by adoring him and praying to him. He revealed himself to me with kindly face and said: I am Khnum, your maker!
My arms are around you…For I am the maker who makes, I am he who made himself, Exalted Nun, who first came forth, Hapy who hurries at will…I shall make Hapy gush for you, No year of lack or want anywhere, Plants will grow weighed by their fruit…Gone will be the hunger years…Egypt’s people Will come striding…
Hearts will be happier than ever before….I made this decree on behalf of my father Khnum…In return for what you had done for me…all tenants who cultivate the fields…their harvests shall be taken to your granary
All fishermen, all hunters…I extract from them one tenth of the take of all these…One shall give the branded animals for all burnt offerings and daily sacrifices, and one shall give one-tenth of gold, ivory, ebony, ochre, carob wood, carnelian, all kinds of timber…" (as translated by Lichtheim)
Bahgavadgita
Kalkin (a man on a white horse)---this incarnation is yet to come and will mark the end of all evil in the world. The last incarnation which has not appeared on earth. At the end of the present age humanity will be obscured in darkness and moral values will disappear.
Vishnu will return in the form of Kalki who will restore dharma and will begin a new era of purity and peace. This incarnation is usually depicted as Vishnu riding a white horse carrying his usual sacred objects with a sword instead of a club. kalki can be depicted as a God with the head of a horse and four arms
Instead of a physical and cataclysmic destruction of an advanced Atlantean/Lemurian civilization I propose rather a psycho spiritual loss of cosmic consciousness of ancient man (maybe even a synthesis of both!).
This traumatic loss resulting in the neurosis we jokingly call "modern mans advanced technological history" and the materialist/rationalistic consensus trance. The psychosis referred to here brought on by the loss of the symbiotic relationship between early man and entheogenic (god manifesting) plants that started our rapid evolutionary change (+- 30 000 years ago).
