Thank you, Summer. That's what I've been trying to say and TheMaster kinda confirms that a little. It's easy to criticise its existence through a perceived lack of evidence, but for me the evidence is of a different kind to what most are looking for. Many are looking for buildings or artefacts they can hold in their hands or point to and say "That's Atlantean". What about the connections people feel, or the list of regressions Star-Child has posted? If regressions are done under hypnosis, are those people lying or relating some kind of fantasy? I'm no expert but I wouldn't think so.
Lynn, all legend is based on fact somewhere along the line. It's similar to children's stories where fanciful notions can have a deeper meaning. Like the rhyme about magpies - one for sorrow, two for joy? If you take a child through the rhyme they end up counting up to ten. Magpies are flocking birds and mate for Life, so one is for sorrow because being alone is bad news for a magpie. Two is for joy because it has a mate for Life. A legend is also coloured by its culture and the story-teller, who might try and make it more palatable for the audience. Remember they came about through illiterate people who had to pass it down through word of mouth. But to my mind there's a bit missing from the process. Would a story-teller colour the story to make it more palatable then teach the audience its true meaning?
After the fall of Atlantis, I believe the Atlanteans went to different locations on the earth or were already in different locations. There's evidence of Atlantean culture in Scotland and its legend tells of giants and the like. There's also areas that look as though they've been nuked - evidence of an advanced culture's war. Thoth is supposed to have been an Atlantean according to both the Egyptians and his Emerald Tablets. Apparently he had advanced sound technology that was used in building - perhaps the same thing that brought down the walls of Jericho. The Sumerians talk of spacemen in their ships, of a people who came from the east and gave them civilisation. That same theme is echoed over and over. Even their gods were very similar, different names (obviously to fit in with the culture) but the exact same roles. This was before history says these cultures could possibly have met. There was an inscription found on a Mayan temple, confirmed to have been carved there the day it was built. It said "Tao T'ien". Tao is 'The Way' as in the Tao Te Ching. T'ien means Heaven. I have a huge slab of a book where the authors have written about all the similarities with the cultures - too many to be mere coincidence.
The Atlanteans would not have used the resources and moved on. They worked in harmony with their environment. What there is evidence of is a comet that hit the earth, shifting of the tectonic plates as you've mentioned, and a nuclear-like war. Whether there was a war or if it was systematic destruction of all that came before is speculation. I believe that if it was war it was planned to happen that way. Part of Atlantis' 'job' was to anchor high dimensional (you touched on that so there's confirmation. More to come :-) beings into the third. If a - for example - sixth/seventh dimensional being came to Atlantis as was slowly 'converted' and their frequencies lowered, Atlantis being there was still a connection back to where they came from. Take Atlantis out of the equation and they have to get on with it. Stranded, essentially.
The Atlanteans didn't value money - they didn't even use it. Gold was used for its properties rather than as a currency or as a status symbol. Gold is a pretty good conductor of electricity. Also bear in mind the human body is a carbon-based bag of water. And being carbon-based, it's not too far from crystal. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I seem to remember that the structure of crystal is very similar to the structure of the carbon in our bodies. Gold would have been pretty common, and there are huge crystal deposits in Arkansas. Becker-Hagens also figures Arkansas in its grid system.
Becker-Hagens Atlantean connection.
http://www.crystalinks.com/grid2000b.gif I wonder if any of the points on the map would correspond to possible locations of Atlantis? Bear in mind the grid is not an exact representation, the grid moves in the same way as magnetic north does.
If you're going out on that limb, Lynn, shift your tail over a bit and make room for me. It's just what I've been thinking about these last couple of days, and I've got a guy sitting waving a pipe at me and a cheesy grin on his face in my head. Atlantis operated at a range of different frequencies - it had to. There were beings there not just from different galaxies but also from different dimensions. If beings came from different dimensions to be integrated into the third then it had to be capable of resonating at those different frequencies. "Atlantis is waiting for you" is what the voice is saying. Perhaps if 2012 theories are to be believed (or some of them at least) and we are moving into the fifth/sixth dimension, perhaps we will again walk through those gates and go sit by the dolphin pool. We get a glimpse of higher dimensions in dreams and astral travel, perhaps in our imaginations and when we mediumistically connect with Spirit. And according to a Bashar channelling (good stuff, master) if we can imagine it then it's real.
I also get the feeling that this will give Grazier an opening :-)
There was a part of Atlantis that - for want of a better expression - went back to where it came from. I get the feeling that it went somewhere else to do the same job, and that when we are able to perceive and resonate we will find fellow Atlanteans all over the galaxy. It would be naive to think we are the only ones or that we were the first. I also believe that there was a systematic destruction of the culture on this planet in this dimension for a reason, whether that was war or planned. But I also believe the Spirit of Atlantis is still here in the people who resonate with it and will one day find it again. I have to go with themaster on this one - "however to a heart based connection to all that is
anything is possible"
