I am currently in the process of re writing and editing my book, which up until now did not really mention Lemuria, except in passing. I now feel though that I need to include at least a couple of chapters on it, since I under estimated its importance. It was after all the motherland in more ways than one. The name Mu of course means motherland, but it seems that it was also mother to Atlantis, and various other ancient civilisations, which have had a great influence on the world, as these were originally Lemurian colonies.
Having trawled through the web there seems to be a great shortage of books specialising in this area, compared to Atlantis, so I wondered whether anyone on here may have any thoughts or information that may be able to help.

Hi Talisman, Sounds good, I believe Mu was first mentioned in Hawaii's
legends also China may have mention of a lost land in the Pacific?
RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
You could try the College of Psychic Studies, June.
If you click on The College, you'll find their Library. Under Publications are lists of tape recordings of lectures, and for the princely sum of £1.00 you can buy the full list.
I bought a tape on Lemuria, but it must have been 10 years ago, I'm sure I still have it somewhere. PM me if you get no joy elsewhere.
The College is a wonderful place, with wonderful people. I'd highly recommend a visit to anyone who hasn't been there, and their Light magazine, to which I subscribe, is one of the best ... and most sensible!

RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
There's a whole series of books from many years ago by a guy called Churchward, all on Lemuria. As I recall, he says that in India in the 1800s he came across ancient texts preserved from Lemurian times. He was able to translate these and from that could write about Lemurian science and etc. No evidence, ut the books were somewhat convincing and are the largest resource on the subject I can think of.

RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
A lot of things have been telling me that many of the secrets of Mu were once contained in the library of Alexandria, which was destroyed by the Muslims, much like how the Protestant reformation destroyed the mystical angelic views in Ireland. Many of our visions and dreams can be great reference to the society of Mu, for it is Mu which possesed strong powers in mental vision. As we ascend together, we discover our ancient past. Much of the scientific, and or archeoligcal evidence is kept underwraps. The government has alot to do with it, and their control on the thoughts of the nation. But we are breaking free of this, and following no others but our own paths taking into acount the wisdom of wise masters.
I suggest delving into the emerald tablets of Thoth. For he has existed for many cycles of evolution above and beneath the cricles of time.
As for what I have read about Mu(Lemuria). It had alot to do with water. Was this moterland an etheric plane in the minds of forms living in the water of the first descending evolutionary cycle of earth? Well, many sources state that the new earth will be manifested by the imagination (which is now known, that the word imagination has a label of limitation from a material mind). So we must look at what the ancient prophets say about the future, to discover the deepest past.
Many dreams had I about discovering ancient treasures in the water. Many dreams about water.... Mu and water, a great connection. Without water, there would be no life. So first there must have been just water, then land, then lands breaking off from the one land, and so on and so on. So perhaps Mu was the first civilization of water, and Atlantis was the first civilization of land. And many sources state that Atlantis came after Mu. So what would be the reason of the Gods to create land? So that then we could discover fire? and add to the database of physical elements? For in the circle of time, we came from One, broke off from One, and come back to One. I remember reading in the tablets of Thoth that the One with God brok off with God so they could realize their perfection with God. Seperate and chaotic is distant from ordered and whole.
Here is a great source with archeoligical evidence supporting Atlantis. As for Mu, I have not yet searched the website. But I find the archeoligical discoveries fascinating, and reminiscent of visions I have been having.
The most recent visions are that of Gem stones, and light and energy manifested through motions of the hands.
To discover more about Mu, you must become like the Mu. Meditate, and discover the universal wisdom to unlock the key to the ancient mystery.
RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
Thanks everyone. I meant to say that I have now actually finished 2 chapters on Mu to be added to the book, uisng in the end a variety of different sources, most of which I found via the net, including James Churchward, Blavatsky et al, and also an excellent book by someone called Wishar S Cerve which I got second hand on amazon for a fiver. This is apparently a psuedonym of H Spencer Lewis, who brought the Rosicrucian movement to the US, and is packed with loads of information. His books on Jesus are also very interesting. Of course I am always open to new ideas that I may have missed.

RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
Hi Talisman,
One thing about Mu as compared to Atlantis is that sources tend to say it was all a loooong time ago? Whereas the remnants of Atla probably went down only circa 10,500 BC. What times or dates have you come across for the end of Mu? All a long time ago or...?
RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
From memory ... Mu is much older than Atlantis. I just did a quick search, and there are huge discrepancies (which they admit) between the "guesstimates".
From
this question is asked: "Does the discovery of the Hobbit of Flores - in October 2004 - two months before the tsunami and earthquakes - in any way link to Lemuria?"
Possibly hugely irrelevant. I'll have to dig out that tape of mine and listen again. I believe the speaker is considered an authority on the subject, but can't even recall the name.[&o]
Laura.
RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
The dates I have for Lemuria/Mu are that it was founded around 900,000 BCE and ended, at the hands of the Atlanteans around 25,000 BCE. Atlantis itself went down, like others have said around 10,500 BCE.
Not sure if there is a connection to the hobbit or not, I will have to dig out an article I saved on this from a recent edition of New Scientist. I believe there is also a programme on later in the week about this, will have to check the dates and post on here letting people know. I am sure there will lots of interest.
June
RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
Ooh sounds wonderfull, i love reading books on Atlantis and Lemuria, and i'm reading one at the moment by Diana Cooper if anyone is interested, it is very good, will have to look out for that programme then T 😉
RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
It's on tomorrow night on BBC 2 (see my other post on the science forum).
June
RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
On TV, June? I hope I can make that.
Meanwhile, though it's hard to say how to know, I don't see Lemuria as being around as recently as 12,500 years ago. Just instinct. I think it's long gone.
RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
Fascinating thread, I must say, but....can 'BC' and 'AD' be used instead of 'BCE'?
Love,
Patsy.

RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
Will try and remember. Will have to remind myself though, as I have got used to using BCE.
June
RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
Thanks, June. I have no idea what a 'common era' is, but I can identify with 'Before Christ.'
Love,
Patsy.

RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
Reason for using BCE instead of BC is down to the fact that BCE is non-denominational. There's further explanation here:

RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
But I thought we lived in a Christian culture in the west? Why the need to change timings like this, so not to 'offend' anyone? The most offence I've seen is from those who expound these things, not from 'ordinary' people of all faiths.
This is supposed to be 'before the common era' and 'common era.' When did 'before the common era' change to 'common era', why did it, and what makes 'common era' here today? It's nonsense on stilts and it's political correctness gone mad.
Love,
Patsy.

RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
Main reason for this post: to backtrack on myself.
A book I've read three times over the years and an absolute classic (essential reading IMHO) is "A Dweller on Two Planets" by Phylos the Thibetan. Here he clearly states that three parts of Mu survived through to the final sinking of Poseid, the last remnant of Atlantis, around 10,500 BC. IMO Phylos in that book is an authoratative source (as far as'messages' and channels go). He says that three portions of Mu survived until then,and two went down in the Earth cahnges of 12,500 years ago. The surviving portion is Australia. Basically these changes on that datewere not just the sinking of Poseid, but much else happened - for example, a lot of Europe didn't exist and was under water until then.
Side issue: BC and BCE.
I tend to use BC/AD as why not? But to do so is considered politically incorrect, so to raise the issue is, I presume, politics? - which I'm told isn't allowed now on HP? It's hard therefore to discuss that subject here.

RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
I think we can allow a ltttle leeway here with regard to BC/BCE.Fear not I willnot be sending any warning messages to anyone then.I must admit that I only really use this term because everyone else (as in writers) does, publishers therefore seem to expect it.It is a little [sm=offtopic.gif]though, so I willget back to the subject in hand.
I have heard vagely of Phylos the Tibetan, and will have to try and look his work up on the web. It depends I suppose though on what he means by parts of Mu. Is he referring to the continent itself or its colonies, which could arguably be considered parts of Mu. I have also heard though thatAustralia is the last surviving portion of Mu, and the Aborigines are supposedly the remnants of the fourth, orwas it fifth root race, I forget how many there were now. If my memory serves me correctly I got this from a channelled bookof Saint Germain called Earth's Birth Changes. It was published in Australia .....
June
RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
Well, arn't we all from a motherland?
RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
Hi, June. A threepence -worth from me...
By Lemuria or Mu, Phylos meant the actual landmass, yes. Interesting, as one might wonder why Poseid/Mu/Atlantean technology wouldn't be discovered all over the present world - but he says that apart from colonies they kept to themselves i.e. the present landmasses for some reason were still primitive in their civilisation, hence the archeological record is as it is - as if Poseid never existed, as if the whole world had always been primitive.
BCE/BC etc is off-topic but one would hardly start a whole new thread to discuss it! :DI reckon publishers are just trying to be PC, afraid of not being. Even ten years ago I had a huge on-going battle when in a book to be published I had the phrase, "masters of art" - and the publisher, to be PC, was trying to change it to "masters and mistresses of art"! Gawd, they didn't even 'get' the obvious second, slightly smuttymeaning. I did get that change deleted.
The book 'channelled by Saint Germain'. Just IMHO - well, thousands would agree, actually - Saint Germain doesn't write through any channeller and never will. So that aint him. 😉

RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
June, just a few words from me on the off-topic topic of BC/BCE, if I may, because I do want to make the point .....
Patsy asked a question about common era, and I did a quick search on BCE to make sure I'd got the words right. I then grabbed the nearest result and posted the link which gives the definitions with suggested time scales for their usage.
It was never my wish or intention to start a religious or political discussion, here or elsewhere ... merely to post a source of information.
Laura.
RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
Don't worry about it Laura, it is not a problem as long as things do not get out of hand. There is a fine line between being political and making a point. We all understand here that sometimes people feel a need to make and illustrate their point.As long as that is done in a sensible and non confrontationalway (as you have done) that does not cause offence, thereis no problem. I then have no problem here.
I would suggest though that we now put this matter to bed and move backto the original spirit of this thread.
June
RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
Thanks, June.
Laura.
RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
Hello June,
I just wanted to say that I did not intend for my comments to be taken out of context, or that they be seen as 'political.' It is so-called 'political correctness' that I cannot abide.
Love,
Patsy.

RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
I know you well enough nowPatsy to have worked that one out for myself, so again please don't worry on my account. We all get a bit annoyed from time to time, and I don'tmuch care fora lot of the PCstuff either.
June
RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
On PC I feel half-way as i do see the need but it goes too far.
Purely in joke i had it in mind to start off a "non-PC" thread - but I don't think what I had in mind would pass muster!!
RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
Thanks June and David.
Lemuria is much older than Atlantis, I think. June, wasn't it mentioned in the tablets of ancient Ur?
Love,
Patsy.

RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
According to my information Lemuria was founded approximately 900,000 BCE, forming a series of daughter empires around 500,000 BCE. Atlantis was the first of these. Others much later on included central China,and Egypt. Lemuria fell around 25,000 BCE, as the Atlanteans were no longer happy with being daughter. They wanted to become mother. Atlantis itself fell around 10,500 BCE.

RE: Lemuria - A Quest for Information
Interestingly I was just at a book store and I found a book that said, "The Lemurian Scrolls", and it had snanskrit beside it. It was in the ancient Indian section.
I took a quick peek inside, and it had precepts and light giving wordswith an inexplanible feel. I did not buy the book, although I feelI should've. I will recieve the scrolls someway or another.
BTW, if you want deep info on Lemuria, check out sacred-texts.com
