1.0   Preamble

This web article is about a mystery which goes by the name of Atlantis ... that is, about a so-called lost civilization or lost continent that simply refuses to stay lost.

In this web article, we use the term Legend of Atlantis because we borrow it from the title of a 1990s documentary.

The mainstream scientist is, of course, derisive of the very idea of Atlantis ... so that for the time being, the matter is still of the Fringe!

So, perhaps, we are justified to use the term Legend of Atlantis, since Atlantis is still but a legend that has yet to be 'proven'.


2.0   Notes

Let's have a quick look at some brief notes about the Legend of Atlantis ...

Thinkquest.org has the following to say about the Legend of Atlantis ...

Summary of the Legend

Plato describes Atlantis as an isle that had its position in the Atlantic. (In order to achieve a better understanding, we have to take note of the former Greek conception of the world: The Atlantic was imagined as the ocean surrounding the former known continents, meaning Africa and Eurasia).

In his description of Atlantis its landscape, nature and metropolis are incomparably beautiful and the culture is very advanced in technology, due to an unusually well educated population. In the end this island disappears into the sea due to an earthquake which might be related to gigantic submarine volcanic explosions. The result is a flood of huge proportions, coming over the land, destroying almost everything. The sea level rises a few hundred meters and so Atlantis sinks. This catastrophe is said to have happened during a single day and night. Plato wrote down his knowledge in two dialogues: Timaeus and Critias. These are the first recorded papers that appeared about Atlantis.

The following comes from a webpage associated or created by University of Rhode Islands ...

The Legend of Atlantis

In the fifth century BC the Greek philosopher Plato describes the disappearance of the island of Atlantis, basing his tale on the account of Solon in the sixth century BC. Solon in turn had received his information from Egyptian priests. Plato’s account, written some time around 360 BC, is in part as follows:

"Now in this island of Atlantis there was a great and wonderful empire which had rule over the whole island and several others, and over parts of the continent . . . But, there occurred violent earthquakes and floods, and in a single day and night of misfortune . . . the island of Atlantis . . . disappeared in the depths of the sea."

Many scholars have speculated that Plato’s account of the destruction and disappearance of the island of Atlantis is a legend that is derived from the great eruption of Santorini in the Bronze Age. Most or all legends are based on some grain of truth, some natural or historical event, that has been re-told, modified and magnified with time. It is therefore well worth while to examine the legend further and look for parallels between the Atlantis account and what we know of Thera, or Santorini, as the island was known in ancient times.

Plato was founder of the famous Academy of Athens, where his most famous student was Aristotle. In the Timaeus and in Critias Plato describes Atlantis as being a circular island, with an interior ring of sea. Passages or canals extended from the inner ring to the open ocean. K.T. Frost was perhaps the first to suggest that the Atlantis legend might be related to the Thera eruption, but he suggested near-by Crete as the location of ancient Atlantis, and the Minoan culture as the basis for the culture of the mythical Atlanteans. Others have gone further and suggested that the island of Thera itself represents Atlantis. In support of this one may point out the ring-like and concentric structures of Thera, the passages to the open ocean, the total destruction of the island and its inhabitants, with a typical Minoan civilization.

Occultopedia says the following about Atlantis ...

3.1   Video Clips

Here is a set of 25 video clips from the popular video hosting site, YouTube, entitled "The Legend of Atlantis - It's Time to Wake Up" ... the "Legend" part of the title refers to the persistent idea of a famous but lost civilization or lost continent, but the "It's Time to Wake Up" part of the title hints at the mystical or esoteric nature of the video's content ...

For sure, these 25 short video clips tend towards the mystical, metaphysical, spiritual, what-have-you ... :)

Oh well ... it's definitely not a Science documentary!

So, be (fore)warned!

Now, while the video represents almost total nonsense and is quite delusional and irrational, we can learn and study from the content of the video (as we can anything!), in the dispassionate manner of a scientist, of course — especially we can find out about what one segment of the Fringe crowd thinks of or about or make it their daily or habitual activity ... this is the segment that tends towards the esoteric and mystical.

Wikipedia Logo - for www.mysteries-of-the-world.com

Here is what Wikipedia — the free, user-editable and very useful online encyclopedia — says about the original 5-part documentary "The Legend of Atlantis" ...

The Legend of Atlantis (documentary)

The Legend of Atlantis is a 1990s 5-part documentary mini-series based on Atlantis, prophecy, metaphysical ideas, the occult, conspiracy theories, UFOs/aliens, secret societies, etc. The documentary was created by someone who goes by the pseudonym of "Elia the last prophet" and produced by Gerd Burde (English version) and Gerd Elion von Attiqua (German version).

Part One: Dawn of the Gods (ISBN 3-931695-11-5 & ISBN 10: 0701113324)

(Descriptions are from the video boxes)

"Thousands of years ago the gods came down to Earth from the stars to initiate a genesis. Human civilization was formed and reached a peak with Atlantis. A Dark Age began and the battle of Atlantean gods led to its fall. A secret brotherhood brought Atlantean secret teachings before the fall to Egypt. Through all civilizations and with inspiration from extraterrestrian guards the secret Atlantean brotherhood managed all political systems with an educational mission. The thrilling documentation shows for the first time the secret activities of a brotherhood in relations with invisible masters from Shambhala and Agharta and the secret about the hollow earth."

Part Two: The Secret Brotherhood of Atlantis (ISBN 3-931695-12-3)

"Following the catastrophe in Atlantis all nations were dispersed. A part of the Atlantean brotherhood's secret knowledge survived in Egypt, in India and in Tibet. The heirs of these secret brotherhoods led mankind during the Dark Age...through Atlantean knowledge and through all ages. In modern times the Freemasons, Templars and Illuminati brotherhoods were formed. After World War I the Neutemplerorden and Thule society emerged in Munich and Vienna. New occult sects which saw 'satan' in the old Freemason lodges. With Hitler these occult sects came to power. This thrilling documentation shows for the first time the background of the Third Reich and its intellect which led to the catastrophe of World War II."

Part Three: The Secret Prophecies of the Apocalypse (ISBN 3-931695-13-1)

"Atlantean secret knowledge tells us the legend of mankind and those souls, who have to undergo cycles. With the fall of Atlantis a gigh civilization cycle had ended. All prophecies and more recent Earth changes point out that today's mankind has reached the end of the next experience cycle. Up to the year 2011 the most serious Earth and climate changes, earthquakes, social and political changes have been predicted. This thrilling documentation shows the prophecies of ELIA, the returned prophet and his message on the last days, Christ's return and the space Brotherhood."

Part Four: The Return of the Lightmasters from Atlantis (ISBN 3-931695-14-X)

"Millenniums have passed... since the high culture of Atlantis sank with a catastrophe through power abuse of some corrupt scientists. All humans of that time, who also experienced the descent into the Dark Age, are being reincarnated today. The thrilling documentation shows the return of the Atlantean light children and allows deep insight into the role of the lightworkers and brotherhoods of Atlantis. It shows why some souls reincarnate today and act as environmental protectionists, therapists, artists, esoterics etc. for the healing of the earth. Addresses also the Space Brotherhood events--11:11, the hollow earth, Shambhala and Agharta."

Part Five: The War of Armageddon (ISBN 3-931695-15-8)

"For millenniums the secrets of creation were exclusively limited to an elite of secret societies. Now we have entered the so-called "Last Days" where these secret societies like the Freemasons and the secret political lodges lose their power. This exciting video documentation will reveal the Atlantean secret knowledge on the hollow world and their extraterrestrian civilizations. The secret of the pyramids, the Sphinx, world-wide underground tunnel systems, flight movement of the Nazis to the South Pole and much more allow the viewer to obtain an overview over the final secrets of the past and its connection with extraterrestrians."

4.0   Postscript

This web article comprises some notes as well as a set of YouTube video clips, on the Mystery of Atlantis, aka Legend of Atlantis.

The brief notes on the Legend of Atlantis show that, at best, we have only hearsay accounts — and not even secondhand, but third-hand accounts! — of the Legend of Atlantis.

The YouTube video featured here, in this web article, tends towards the mystical and esoteric ... still, the material is useful for study and analysis — so that, at the very least, we know what the Fringe crowd is about on the Legend of Atlantis.


Nuff said!

Four Points to Note

  1. Recently, we added a simple blog so that you know the latest changes. To get the updates automatically, CLICK HERE to subscribe to our RSS (you will get a new window or 'tab'). Thanks and cheers!
  2. Please do not assume or conclude that, just because I present many views (in the form of textual notes and video clips) on this website, it means that I am in agreement with or that I believe in the views offered-proferred ... That would be displaying such a parochial and provincial attitude, towards this website and towards me as well!

    As an ex-military officer, I assure you that I am in the habit of reading, viewing and digesting lots of stuff that I don't necessarily believe in ... We call all the stuff we read, view and digest, 'military intelligence' ... The same applies with 'business intelligence' in the business world, of course.

    Our aim, as usual, is to find out what others (including our friends, enemies, competitors, suppliers, strategic partners, business partners, etc.) believe in ... In order to do that effectively, we have to 'get out of the way', so to speak ... we have to remove our humongous ego! ... else we will never ever really have gotten started in our journey of exploration and discovery of the Mysteries of the World .

  3. Here is a sentiment that I am wholeheartedly in agreement with ...
    As I sit down to redo this book for an American audience, what rises before me is last night's dream: I'm in a broad and beautiful land among many trees. It's night. I look up at a huge old tree that's dark against the starry sky in its detail of twig and branch. There is room enough here for all of us, I realize, here in this big, intricately textured park. But I see that some want to cut down the trees and level it out, so huge throngs of people can gather to gaze up at the sun's glare. I watch dark twigs fingering the remote, untouchable stars. A voice speaks: "Don't turn this into a Copernican Garden."

    Waking up, I remember that I went to sleep wondering how to put this book together. And I take "Copernican Garden" to mean a parking lot vista where masses gather to honor the bright sun of traditional science with its old rules as the center of the universe.

    So I will not cut down the trees and level this book out. It is between you and me [or you and I], a conversation as we stroll along in a moonlit fractal garden past webby connections of thought that merge to patterned insight. Here hidden delights nestle in scaling patterns of self-similar but never quite repeating beauty. Here the tree of life hold stars in its branches. No matter how huge, this garden stays human-sized because we have a place in it, you and I. No need to cut down the connective forest and level things out for that bright Sol [sun] of left-brain logic whose daytime dazzle — so close and glaring — can blind us to the myriad constellations beyond.

    [...]

       — Katya Walter, Tao of Chaos
            Sub-title: Merging East and West
            (1994, 1996)

  4. Here is an observation (adapted) made in the Acknowledgement page of a book ...
    It takes many minds to produce a book [including an e-book, of course]. Although most authors [especially of non-fiction books and articles] would prefer not to admit this fact, fundamentally they are merely 'synthesisers' of accumulated knowledge.

    The process of synthesising may unveil a new reality map, or paradigm, which, in due course, will be used by future pioneers to unveil further paradigms.

    This principle was summed up by Sir Isaac Newton when he remarked: "If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants".

As stated in our Mysteries Blog , the 'Mysteries of the World' Website does NOT aim to sensationalize any particular 'Mystery', although we will examine and explore all possible viewpoints pertaining to each 'Mystery' — including the fringe AND the mainstream.

We will, of course, come to a conclusion (eventually!) about each 'Mystery' ... even if that conclusion may eventually turn out to be 'as yet unresolved' or 'unexplained to our satisfaction'.
