Our Mysterious Planet
Lost Civilizations
|
This book is the fourth of a series by David H. Lewis, based on research
involving the infinite powers of the human mind and our universal
energy. Its contents establish the connection between our normally used
powers and the unknown gifted powers from the center of Creation.
We use Norse mythology everyday of the week, either without knowing it or not thinking about it. Tuesday, Wodensday, Thorsday, and Freysday.... Why do these so-called mythologies continue to amaze and confound us? Are they fiction stories built around true and factual events? Nonsense you say--- but you also said that about the mythological Legend of Troy.. and now proven as a factual place in time and history.
All very ancient legend and the most rudimentary history, the vague allusions of Plato, Aristotle and Seneca, speak of a country in the Western Ocean, which would scarcely be likely to be the distant Americas; and I think we may accept those legends as to a land existing in what is now the Atlantic Ocean at about the period discussed, remembering that after all legend is oral history and starts with some foundations.
In spite of the advances in our knowledge of Ancient Egypt which decipherment of many of the monuments of the old Pharaohs has made possible, two basic questions of the first magnitude still remain outstanding in as great uncertainty as in the days of Herodotus. These are the question of the Origin of the Civilization of the Country, and the question of the Dates of its Kings and Dynasties.
Very few published studies about the Etruscan civilization is available to the researcher and student of antiquity. So we feel lucky to reprint rare research on this lost civilization, so feared and revered by the Romans.
Follow the author through his trek across the desert that still hides its secrets of past civilizations.
E.A. Wallis Budge is probably the greatest Egyptologist that England ever produced. His books are written for both the scientist and the layman, in that they are not written in a style that over-uses technical lingo, that bars the layman from enjoying learning about Egypt.
Ceylon (Sri Lanka) is ground zero for lost civilizations! Ceylon is the heralded location where God (or the gods) landed upon Earth and set Adam thereon.
Research into the possibility (probability to the author) that a people called the Nestorians are the Lost Tribes of Israel. The Nestorians adopted early Christianity as their religion.
Anglo-Saxon history is largely ignored by world history books, possibly due to the legends and myths that have come from that history, blurring the lines of history and fiction. Yet, the history is as full and rich as are the myths.
When Edwin Sidney Hartland published his book, The Science of Fairy Tales, in 1891, little did he realize the impact his research into the myths and folklore of the supernatural world of the little folk would have for many generations afterwards.
The Middle East continues to occupy current events, and Iran is becoming a forerunner in all the debates. Iran is also one of the foremost nations preserving its ancient history and supporting archeology in discovering its past. Zoroaster and his relgion that followed had a major impact on Persia, and more than likely the entire civilized world.
This ignored scientific research was by one of India's political warriors, who dared to confront the British occupation and British destruction of his homeland. He finds that Aryan race of man to be birthed from the Arctic areas of the planet, based on readings in the sacred Vedas...and he backs this with independent and scientfic research.
A scientific look and historical studies into Atlantis and other questions of the ancient world.
The Nordic-Germanic --- Aryan mythologies are based around arctic climates. This author presents the viable probability that the Aryan races originated in the Arctic areas of the planet, instead of the torrid climate of the Caucasius Mountains in Iran. This echoes the research of the famous Indian political warrior, Lokamanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak, who came to the same conclusion based on the Vedas and astronomical facts.
