THE 'LOST' LAND OF ATLANTIS & THE REAL REASON FOR ITS DOWNFALL, ACCORDING TO PLATO - Duration: 11:05.
THE �LOST� LAND OF ATLANTIS & THE REAL REASON FOR ITS DOWNFALL, ACCORDING TO PLATO.
Advanced ancient civilizations are a big topic of interest among researchers, historians,
archaeologists, and scientists.
Every single year we are gifted with a mysterious find that has us questioning the origins of
the human race and imagining the cultures which roamed the earth before us.
We have found much evidence to suggest that there may have been civilizations in existence
before us which were intellectually, and even technologically superior.
That being said, this theory is still thought to be quite fantastical; despite all of the
evidence which has been brought to light in recent years to support this notion, it is
still largely ignored by the mainstream.
If you are interested in looking at some of this evidence, a great place to start is with
author Graham Hancock, in his book titled The Magicians of The Gods.
Atlantis
If you start talking about the lost, ancient city of Atlantis, most people will probably
think that you�re living in �la la� land.
Many people are unaware that this city has been seriously studied for hundreds of years.
For example, we can see that it was a subject of significant importance for researchers
at the Smithsonian Institution, as emphasized by their Annual Report of the Board of Regents
of The Smithsonian Institution for the year ending June 30th, 1915.
In the report, author M. Pierre Termeir, a member of the Academy of Sciences and Director
of Service of the Geologic Chart of France, gives a lecture regarding the Atlantean civilization.
He makes a compelling case for further study of this lost city:
After a long period of disdainful indifference, observe how in the last few years science
is returning to the study of Atlantis.
How many naturalists, geologists, zoologists, or botanists are asking one another today
whether Plato has not transmitted to us, with slight amplification, a page from the actual
history of mankind.
No affirmation is yet permissible; but it seems more and more evident that a vast region,
continental or made up of great islands, has collapsed west of the Pillars of Hercules,
otherwise called the Straight of Gibraltar, and that its collapse occurred in the not
far distant past.
In any event, the question of Atlantis is placed anew before men of science; and since
I do not believe that it can ever be solved without the aid of oceanography, I have thought
it natural to discuss it here, in this temple of maritime science, and to call to such a
problem, long scorned but now being revived, the attention of oceanographers, as well as
the attention of those who, though immersed in the tumult of cities, lend an ear to the
distant murmur of the sea.
You can read this full report here, starting on page 219.
In his lecture, M. Termeir goes on to present zoologic, geographic, and geologic data to
support the existence of the lost Atlantean civilization.Not only that, archaeological
discoveries on the ocean floor have also raised some questions�
Plato�s Description of Atlantis
Plato, the ancient Greek philosopher, provides a description of Atlantis in his dialogue
Critias, which was never completed.
The following is a summary of his depiction, these are a few of many points I am taking
from Manly P. Halls, The Secret Teachings of All Ages
Atlantis was inhabited by �earth-born� and �primitive� human beings.
One of them was wooed by the god Poseidon, who interbred with the human beings, and they
eventually bore five children.
This interbreeding between gods and humans is a common theme in many historical texts
found throughout the world.
The land was divided into concentric zones of land and water.
Two zones of land and three zones of water surrounded the central island, which had warm
springs of water and cold springs of water.
Atlantis became an established country, with a wise government and an industry that sprung
them to advanced technological heights � beyond even what we have reached today.
Atlantis had limitless resources, wild animals, and precious metals, and was heavily populated.
Atlantis was full of large and beautiful palaces, temples, docks, and a network of various bridges
and canals that united different sections of the kingdom.
White, black and red stones were used in the construction of public buildings.
�They circumscribed each of the land zones with a wall, the outer wall being covered
with brass, the middle with tin, and the inner, which encompassed the citadel, with orichalch.
The citadel, on the central island, contained the palaces, temples, and other public buildings.
In its center, surrounded by a wall of gold, was a sanctuary dedicated to Cleito and Poseidon.�
Atlantis had a number of gardens, full of hot and cold springs.
There were countless temples, public baths, and exercise facilities for both man and animal.
�The part of Atlantis facing the sea was described as lofty and precipitous, but about
the central city was a plain sheltered by mountains renowned for their size, number,
and beauty.
The plain yielded two crops each year, in the winter being watered by rains and in the
summer by immense irrigation canals, which were also used for transportation.
The plain was divided into sections and in time of war each section supplied its quota
of fighting men and chariots.� Atlantis was massive, ruled by multiple kings
who all had control over their land.
Their relationships with the other kings were governed by an original code of ethics that
was engraved by the first ten kings.
�The chief laws of the Atlantean kings were that they should not take up arms against
each other and that they should come to the assistance of any of their number who was
attacked.� The Downfall of Atlantis
These are the essential points Plato makes about Atlantis.
He described it as a great and powerful empire, almost magical, and said that this was the
same empire which attacked the Hellenic states.
He attributes the power and glory they tasted after this venture to their eventual demise,
writing that the love for these ego-driven desires that soon developed among Atlantean
kings �lured� them from �the pathway of wisdom and virtue.�
�Filled with false ambition, the rulers of Atlantis determined to conquer the gods
into his holy habitation and addressed them.
Here Plato�s narrative comes to an abrupt end, for the Critias was never finished.�
Plato also tackles the subject of Atlantis in his Timaeus, writing of a story told by
Solon � who himself is said to have heard the story in Egypt, passed on to him by a
priest via hieroglyphic inscriptions in a temple in Sais � in which a violent cataclysm
sank the continent.
Thus, the Island of Atlantis completely disappeared.
�A technologically sophisticated but morally bankrupt evil empire � Atlantis � attempts
world domination by force.
The only thing standing it its way is a relatively small group of spiritually pure, morally principled
and incorruptible people � the ancient Athenians.
Overcoming overwhelming odds . . . the Athenians are able to defeat their far more powerful
adversary simply through the force of their spirit.
Sound familiar?
Plato�s Atlantean dialogues are essentially an ancient greek version of �Star Wars.�
� � Ken Feder, professor of archaeology, taken from his book �Frauds, Myths and Mysteries:
Science and Pseudoscience in Archaeology.�
The Egyptian connection is also interesting to bring up here because Crantor, another
ancient Greek philosopher, asserted that the Egyptian priests declared the story of Atlantis
to be written upon pillars which were still preserved circa 300 B.C.
Manly P. Hall has noted that, before this cataclysm, a portion of the population left
and did not succumb to the egoistic tendencies which apparently led to the downfall of Atlantis.
Was the philosophic, religious, and scientific knowledge of Atlantis passed on?
There are many similarities between the reported teachings of Atlantis and those of other cultures,
such as the Mayas of Central America.
According to Manly P. Hall, from the Atlanteans, �the world received not only the heritage
of arts and crafts, philosophies, and sciences, ethics and religions, but also the heritage
of hate, strife, and perversion.
The Atlanteans instigated the first war; and it has been said that all subsequent wars
were fought in a fruitless effort to justify the first one and right the wrong which it
caused.�
Before Atlantis sank, its spiritually illuminated Initiates, who realized that their land was
doomed because it had departed from the Path of Light, withdrew from the ill fated continent.
Carrying with them the sacred and secret doctrine, these Atlanteans established themselves in
Egypt, where they became its first divine rulers.
Nearly all the great cosmologic myths forming the foundation of the various sacred books
of the world are based upon the Atlantean Mystery Rituals.�
One of the most interesting parts of this story, to me, is the fact that this place
is often remembered as a place of glory, light, and abundance, which it was.
But they were not immune to the dangers of avarice, either, as H.P.
Blavatsky makes clear: �Under the evil insinuations of their demon, Thevatat, the Atlantis race
became a nation of wicked magicians.
In consequence of this, war was declared, the story of which would be too long to narrate;
its substance may be found in the disfigured allegories of the race of Cain, the giants,
and that of Noah and his righteous family.
The conflict came to an end by the submersion of the Atlantis, which finds its imitation
in the stories of the Babylonian and Mosaic flood.�

Gita Life Tips: Effects of excessive greed - English Meaning Of Verse 16.10 - Duration: 1:37.
Filled with insatiable desires, with pretentiousness, pride and arrogance, holding untrue views
in delusion, they work with impure resolve.
A major aspect of the materialistic world view is greed.
Shri Krishna refers to this greed using the phrase "duspooram kaamam", meaning selfish
desires that can never be satisfied or fulfilled.
People who follow the materialistic world view believe that one who is without selfish
desires is as good as dead.
They do not believe that selfless action, work that benefits someone other than themselves,
is worth anything.
This greed propels them to "dambhaha" or pretentiousness.
They do not see the harm in putting on a show in order to gain favours or get what they
want.
As they accumulate more wealth and power, they feed their superiority complex, resulting
in "maanaha" or excessive pride.
When their pride reaches greater and greater heights, they become drunk with their ill-gotten
accomplishments and possessions.
This is "mada", intoxication.
We keep coming back to the theme of ignorance and delusion, of "moha", when we analyze the
materialistic world view.
When one cannot tell right from wrong, one begins to develop views that are not based
on truth or rationality.
It is no surprise that the activities or undertakings of such people are impure, lawless, without
any consideration of duty or the big picture.
Defrauding others or destroying others property are illegal in the eyes of the law, but perfectly
legal from their standpoint.

Ranger Zach is at the top of Pompeys Pillar with a story of the past. - Duration: 1:03.
(Birds Chirping)
Hi all, it's Ranger Zack out here at Pompeys Pillar again showing you some more fun stuff.
If you look out in that valley there, in 1873, General Custer camped out there.
He was helping guide the railroad going west as they were expanding the railroad and he
was an American General protecting the Army with his soldiers and the 7th calvary.
They camped out right down there in that valley.
There's a famous painting in our visitor center actually of the event of him down there.
It's of where some Sioux warriors were over here on the Pillar side shooting bullets off
into the camp men while they were bathing down there in the Yellowstone River.
The picture has the naked men running back to camp.
There's even stories of one man running all the way back to a different camp further up
in the hills back there.
So if you can imagine that would be quite funny.
