Atlantis...

[Apprentice666]

Bright Greetings,

I am curious as of who here believes in the "lost city of atlantis", and what theories you believe? I believe it is located in the Bermuda Triangle, and this triangle takes down boats, planes, and etc. because Atlantis was supposed to hold millions upon millions of crystal work and raw crystals. These crystals combines could interfer and bring these things down. Idk, what do you guys think?

[Geministar]

I believe it once existed definantly. Along with Lemuria and other "lost continents" we may not even know about. Every time I turn around it seems there is a new theory as to where Atlantis was. I'm not sure but I do believe it existed. I think it was a Sylvia Browne book I read that very vividley described what it looked like and all about the crystals and such. Its just such a cool sounding place(of course so is Middle Earth, but hey thats just a book...right?JK) I am curious as to what really happened to it. There are suppose to be writings found from people on other sides of the world even around the time Atlantis existed explaing the city, just a little more proof, to me, that it did indeed exist.Good Question though, I'm curious as to what others here think about this subject as well.

I don't know if it existed on earth or another realm, but I feel it may ahve existed.

I think the lost civilization of Atlantis as described by Plato refers to a new world civilization, either in mexico/central america or in the Andes. I've heard theories that is is an island in the mediteranean which blew up from a volcano, but I don't buy that for two reasons: 1.) the mediterranean islands are not past the pillars of hercules (gibraltar) as described by Plato. 2.) Plato describes a continent, not a dinky island.

Also do consider the Canary islands which have strange pyramid structures built on them and were inhabited by a race of blonde haired people known as they guanches. They had a strange written language which has not yet been deciphered, and their legends speak of them being survivors of a lost civilization (or so I recall hearing anyway). It is believed by some that the Canary islands are all that reminds of the continent of Atlantis....

But I personally believe Atlantis was in the new world. Consider for a moment that egyptian mummies have been found to have traces of cocaine and nicotine in them.... these substances are native to the new world only. And it was an egyptian who told Plato of Atlantis. There is plenty of evidence showing a link between Egypt and the new world... and thor heyerdahl built a raft out of reeds and sailed from Africa to south america to prove such contact was possible.

I feel that Atlantis was invented by Plato in the same way that Utopia was invented by Thomas More, as more an exploration of a perfect society than a history of a real place.

[Apprentice666]

You have very strong points, Laisrean. Do you happen to have any links with that information on it so that I may look further into those details? I prefer to inquire where information comes from, nothing against you or anything. lol. I'll google it now.

I think there was an Atlantis, but that it wasn't the wonder city some people make it out to. Chances are there was a culture around greece that was a little more advanced than the others. Its not unheard of for entire islands to go under due to volcanic actvity. People tell stories and over the years things got out of hand with each telling. I'm thinking it was nothing more than some nice city on the island of Thera, not to down play it. It had to be wonderfull to even be remembered for so long, but that people are going to be dissapointed when they find and do not suddenly become enlightened.

[Apprentice666]

Well, several sources tell me that Plato's description of it's size could have been misenterpreted and instead of "1000", it could have been "100" and the island may have been in the Mediterranean Sea not far from the coast of Italy. I like this concept as well as the Bermuda Triangle Concept.

[Zamin]

My theory of Atlantis is that in the future, time travel is possible and to avoid over-population or just for fun, lots of people decide to go back in time and set up a civilisation. They name it Atlantis but then after a while something goes wrong or they all decide to come back to their present day.

Bingo.

I believe it is still around , but its hidden from us ...that maybe different type of wormhole swallowed ,Atlantis hence forth making it VERY hard to find out if the place is real

i very much believe in atlantis..and that the people are very much alive ..and if a suriver of the city , manged to get of the island/city its possible they are living among us ..to this day..

[mayu]

i have heard that atlantis was the first continent, and that people sailed around the world from this point, i will have to remember the film i saw, i got rid of it in a clear out by mistake.

his evidence was the simularities in the buildings and some cultural simularites in both mayan and egyptian. he also makes links to easter island, i must stress these were his ideas and he gave pretty good evidence. i will try and find it out.

okay this is the site, hes the same guy who wrote about the face on mars, i must admit i found his evidence on that pretty good.

I think Atlantis was built on a far away planet by the Ancients. They were at war with the Wraith and had to leave or their city would be destroyed. See, Atlantis itself was this giant floating city out in the ocean. So because the Ancients were losing the battle, they put up a shield around Atlantis and sunk it under water. The remaining Ancients left for Earth, and their history of war became our stories of Atlantis sinking. They did breed with the people of Earth though, so some of us still have Ancient DNA.

The headquarters of the crystal skull too I believe but again I don't actually belive that the Gods had anything to do with the destruction. I've been told and firmly believe this it was down to natural forces which was what caused the destruction. Although Atlantis is still accessible through meditation and visualisation, some say its a state of mind now. For anyone who is interested - the Atlantis cards by Diane Cooper and one of her books may be up your street to study/read!

Also I've received some spiritually inspired poems written about Atlantis if anyone wishes to read them I will post them in the poetry section. But as far as I'm aware, being an old soul myself or having been told about it by many, Atlantis is connected to Lemuria and the island of Mhu. I believe too that reiki has a role to play in this connection, particularly kundalini reiki and I also believe that the rune symbols that we have today have been derived from the old Lemurian healing symbols. As for the crystals..... well we have Lemurian seed crystals here today, what's not to say that there are also Atlantean crystals with similiar purposes?

lol. How do I know this? Experiences on my spiritual journey and resistance to Lemurian crystals - felt anger. I discovered this was connected to the mind's resistence. As for Atlantis itself, the Library itself is very interesting as is the fountain outside of the library although admittedly this was for me accessed through meditation. After the med I saw like a loop of golden light, so the experience even through meditation was interesting enough. And if it didn't exist, how come there is so much info lurking around today? Must be kernels of truth in some of it - that is just my opinion.

Heh! I was going to comment on lifting plot lines and mashing them into another franchise... but then I remembered Aliens vs Predators.

[Ladysadefairy]

I believe it still exist...but in some way its a hidden city..lost to our world but in another concept of someplace we dare not look for..

or if it did exist in someway ..it either got destroyed VIA..natural causes..and the crystals remain burried where the triangle..but deeply emebed into the sand of the ocean..

which causes the unknown cases of disapppearences and plane crashs

Actually that's always been the best evidence -- similar objects and cultural elements that appear between cultures who never could have met. The similarities between Maya and Egyptian would be about the same as the Russian and English alphabets. The theory behind how you combine logograms and sound symbols into words is identical. The only big difference is the specific symbols used. Then you get to world-wide pyramids and so on. It had to come from somewhere.

For the record, I doubt the crystal-powersources and so on. There's no evidence that such a thing is possible.
