We Should Learn From The Destruction of Atlantis

Just as man has gazed fascinated into sea, atavistically peering into his past, so has he engaged in a restless quest for Atlantis. In the ocean, said naturalist Richard Carson, he found from whence he sprung, and in Atlantis, a dream of superior culture, prefacing the brief few thousands years of recorded history with which he measured his meager progress.

Since Plato first described the lost continent of the Atlantic twenty-five hundred years ago, more than two thousands books have been written about a legendary land that nobody has seen. There has been books to prove Atlantis, books to disapprove it. Some have been erudite scientists, others by dreamers in search of Shag-ri-La.

While oceanographers, geologists, and ordinary sea divers have been fanning out over Atlantic for centuries in underwater quest, Edgar Cayce merely went to sleep, and saw visions of a magic continent which went through three periods of breakup, the last some eleven or twelve thousands years ago.

Who was Cayce?

Every year, tens of thousands of people from all over the world become interested in the life work of one ordinary man. He was an average individual in most respects: a loving husband, a father of two children, a skilled photographer, a devoted Sunday School teacher, and an eager gardener. Yet, throughout his life, he also displayed one of the most remarkable psychic talents of all time. His name was Edgar Cayce.

For forty-three years of his adult life, Edgar Cayce demonstrated the uncanny ability to put himself into some kind of self-induced sleep state by lying down on a couch, closing his eyes, and folding his hands over his stomach. This state of relaxation and meditation enabled him to place his mind in contact with all time and space. From this state he could respond to questions as diverse as, "What are the secrets of the universe?" to "How can I remove a wart?" His responses to these questions came to be called "readings" and contain insights so valuable that even to this day individuals have found practical help for everything from maintaining a well-balanced diet and improving human relationships to overcoming life-threatening illnesses and experiencing a closer walk with God.

Though Cayce died more than half a century ago, the timeliness of the material in the readings is evidenced by approximately one dozen biographies and more than 300 titles that discuss various aspects of this man's life and work. These books contain a corpus of information so valuable that even Edgar Cayce himself might have hesitated to predict their impact on the latter part of the twentieth century. Sixty years ago who could have known that terms such as "meditation," "akashic records," "spiritual growth," "auras," "soul mates," and "holism" would become household words to hundreds of thousands?

Cayce’s reading on Atlantis, continued to span for over 25 years, the reading were given before the first atom bomb was touched off, before it was known that man finally did have power to blast himself back to the dark Ages, or turn the clock back to stone age and life in in a cave by bleak campfire. Could it be that it all happened before?

Atlantis it was and they destroyed themselves.

Humans are "eating away at our own life support systems" at a rate unseen in the past 10,000 years by degrading land and freshwater systems, emitting greenhouse gases and releasing vast amounts of agricultural chemicals into the environment, new research has found.

Two major new studies by an international team of researchers have pinpointed the key factors that ensure a livable planet for humans, with stark results.


Of nine worldwide processes that underpin life on Earth, four have exceeded "safe" levels: human-driven climate change, loss of biosphere integrity, land system change, and the high level of phosphorus and nitrogen flowing into the oceans due to fertilizer use.

Powerful picture on environmental impact.

Researchers spent five years identifying these core components of a planet suitable for human life, using the long-term average state of each measure to provide a baseline for the analysis.

They found that the changes of the last 60 years are unprecedented in the previous 10,000 years, a period in which the world has had a relatively stable climate and human civilization has advanced significantly.


Carbon dioxide levels, at 395.5 parts per million, are at historic highs, while loss of biosphere integrity is resulting in species becoming extinct at a rate more than 100 times faster than the previous norm.
