  • Atlantis White Island, Of White Skinned?

    There are scholars who maintain that Atlantis was first mentioned by Plato.

    But references to the area designated as Atlantis are found in many cultures.

    Atlantis was given its name by the Greeks after Atlas.

    But early Greek legends indicate Sanatana Dharma, Hinduism connection.

    Balarama, Krishna legends have found and there is a view that the Pillars of Hercules was made in honor of Lord Krishna.

    Please check my posts by Googling the term and ramanan50.

    Be that as it may.

    Saka Dweepa is deemd to be Atlantis by taking reference to Sanskrit Texts.

    Atala, one of the regions, out of 14,is a part of the nether world probably indicating that it lies, below, the equator( at least a portion of it).

    ‘

    The Vishnu Purana, one of the oldest of the Hindu Puranas, speaks of “Atala, the White Island,” one of the seven dwipas (islands) belonging to Patala (Book II, chaps. i, ii, and iii). This ancient text locates Atala geographically on the seventh (heat, or climate) zone, which according to Francis Wilford (the translator) is 24 to 28 degrees north latitude, putting it in the same latitude as the Canary Islands just off the North African coast. Col. Wilford rightly calls Atala, “Atlantis, the White Island”. (Wilford, 1808)

    At least one “authority” has attempted to identify Atala with Italy, but Italy is not an island. Also, Italy is 38 to 45 degrees north latitude. Finally, I fail to see any possibility that the “Western Ocean,” mentioned in the texts as its location, could be the Mediterranean Sea when the Karna Parva of the Mahabharata clearly describes Africa as comprising that ocean’s eastern shoreline—placing that body of water clearly to the west of Africa!

    Another non-Sanskrit scholar implies that Atala might be one of the well-known northern lands, such as Iceland or Greenland, and that the epithet “White Island” refers to its being covered with snow the majority of the time—even the mythological Hyperborea has been suggested. This does not appear to be the case.

    Atala and Sveta Dwipa (“White Island”) are not the only names for Atlantis in Sankrit lore. Another name, Saka Dwipa, is used just as often in the Puranas; and according to the Sanskrit Dictionary (1974), Saka Dwipa means “island of fair skinned people.” It is therefore quite possible that “white” refers to the skin color of its inhabitants, rather than to the dominant color of the island—although it should not be assumed that all Atlanteans were white-skinned.

    The terms “Atala” and “White Island” are used also by the Bhavishya Purana (4th cent. B.C.). Here it is stated that Samba, having built a temple dedicated to Surya (the Sun), made a journey to Saka Dwipa, located “beyond the salt water” looking for the Magas (magicians), worshippers of the Sun. He is directed in his journey by Suryahimself (i.e., journeys west following the Sun), riding upon Garuda (the flying vehicle of Krishna and Vishnu) he lands at last among the Magas.

    The Mahabharata (circa. 600 B.C.) also refers to “Atala, the White Island”, which is described as an “island of great splendour.” It continues: “The men that inhabit that island have complexions as white as the rays of the Moon and they are devoted to Narayana . . . Indeed, the denizens of White Island believe and worship only one God.” (Santi Parva, Section CCCXXXVII)‘

    Although there are numerous ancient Egyptian king-lists in existence, only a few include the famous “reign of the gods”. These include the Palermo Stone (2565-2420 B.C.), the Turin Papyrus (1300 B.C.), and Manetho’s Egyptian Chronicles (250 B.C.). Of these, the Turin Papyrus is by far the most complete source.

    The Turin Papyrus (Gardiner, 1987; Smith, 1872) lists ten kings who ruled during the “reign of the gods,” complimenting the fragments of Manetho which have come down to us. Most importantly, it informs us as to the correct number of actual kings, thus helping us to equate Egyptian names with the corresponding Greek names. Below is a list of god-kings from the Turin Papyrus, with Manetho’s fragmented list alongside:

    The Turin Papyrus Manetho’s King-list
    Ptah Hephaestus
    Ra Helios
    Su Agathodaemon
    Seb Cronos
    Osiris Osiris
    Set Typhon
    Horus . . .
    Thoth . . .
    Ma . . .
    Horus Horus

     

    So we have ten Aulitean (or, Aletean) kings reigning in a “foreign land” during the precise time Plato says ten Atlantean kings reigned in Atlantis. The Turin Papyrus also records the installation of the next series of kings in 9850 B.C.! This date is so close to the date given for the end of Atlantis that coincidence is virtually out of the question. In such a case, the equation “Aletean=Atlantean” doesn’t seem out of the question. ‘

    The Santi Parva also describes Atala as being inhabited by white men who never have to sleep or eat. (Ibid.) Interestingly enough, the Greek historian Herodotus (450 B.C.) describes a tribe of Atlanteans who “never dream and eat no living thing”. (History, Book IV) Can this be coincidence? And just as the god Poseidon is very much involved in the Atlantis story, likewise in the Sanskrit accounts we find Varuna (the Hindu Poseidon) very much involved in Atala.

    In other words, Atala, the White Island is remarkably similar to Plato’s Atlantis, even down to its circular capital city, Tripura! Tripura is made in three concentric parts, just as Plato’s Metropolis is divided into three parts by concentric canals. During the war of the gods and Asuras, the wicked cities of the Asuras began to fall, one by one, amidst loud cries of woe: “Burning those Asuras, he [the hero] threw them down into the Western ocean” (Karna Parva, Section XXXIV).

    Concerning the “concentric arrangment” of Tripura, a recent archeological discovery of a fortified palace in Bactria, India, known as Dashly-3, turned out to be a concentric 3-ringed structure of the “tripura type”. [Their words, not mine.] The archaeologists, excavating under the auspices of the Archaeological Departments of Pakistan and India (Mahadevan, 15), also state that the Dasyas, the builders of Dashly-3, were “Asura-worshippers”.

    In the Surya Siddhanta, an ancient Sanskrit text on astronomy, the translator (W. D. Whitney, 1860) mentions an “island” (dwipa) called Jambu Dwipa, surrounded by rings of alternating land and water. I am tempted to equate Jambu Dwipa with the Atlantean capital, which Plato describes as surrounded by circular canals, “making alternate zones of sea and land” (Critias)…

     

    For instance, it has been alledged that Plato called Atlantis “a continent,” whereas Atala was only an island; therefore, it is reasoned, they could not be one and the same.

    In actual fact, Plato never calls Atlantis a continent: only a “large island”. That Atala is also a very large island can be deduced from the Mahabharata, which describes Atala as having a capital city (Tripura), other major cities with houses, palaces, and streets, and as being populated by numerous tribes, some of whom chose to wage war against other nations. This is not a description of a small island.‘

    That whether it was an Island or a Continent is a non issue.

    Continent may be  a large mass surrounded by water.

    Like Australia.

    The term Asura means powerful.

     

    While Ravana from the southern part of Bharatavarsha is called a Rakashsa, the people of Atala, Atlantis were called Asuras.

     

    This term set me to search for a landmass which had a culture similar to Sanatana Dharma.

     

    One finds references to this in the Ramayana where Sugriva directs hs army to search for Sita in Peru, identifying it with the Nazca Lines, which he called

     

    as  Shiva’s Trishul Mark, the Nazca Lines resemble the Trishul Mark.

     

    The description of Tripura confirmed suspicion that Atlantis is Tripura mentioned in the Purana and destroyed by Lord Shiva.

     

    “However, secondary tradition founded by people and limited in time, and the original tradition has superhuman origin and timeless nature. Because of this myth, and even the Bible texts “Egyptian Book of the Dead” is only secondary to the polar revelation contained in the text of “Avesta”, “Rig” and “Popol Vuh.”There is direct textual overlap between the myth of Tripura and dredaniem of Atlantis. First of all, ‘of course, we are talking about uniformity describe the appearance of Tripura and Atlantis. “Matsya Purana” and “Mahabharata” reported three round town, merged into one, and the first one was made of gold, the other – from the silver, and the third – of iron [29]. In turn, Plato in the dialogue “Critias” said a central island surrounded by the “alternate water and earth rings (earth was two, and water – three) all larger diameter, conducted as if the compass of the middle of the island, at equal distance from each other” [ 30]. Central island and two earthen ring – this is a description of a triple-like Tripura. The walls of each of these cities were covered with metal. The outer city wall was covered with copper, middle – tin, and the inner city – precious orichalcum. [31] The walls of the temple of Poseidon were lined with silver and gold. [32] Such detailed description of the matches in the Indian holy city of ancient myth and prove not only the relationship of the two stories, but the stories of historical authenticity.In other Indo-European sacred myths we find the same pattern.

  • Tripura Rotating Cities Destroyed By Shiva Atlantis

    This Mantra of the Sri Rudram we are aware of.

    Tripura as described in Hinduism

    Lord Shiva is described as Tripurantaka,’one who destroyed Tripurantaka, an Asura and the Tripura, the Triple city.

    This is how Shiva destroyed Tripura.

    ‘

    Vishnu immediately rushed to Shiva , knowing he had to make him angry said “ Tripura should be destroyed. The kings have become evil and they have destroyed the Shiva lingas”

    Shiva flew into a great rage and agreed to destroy Tripura.

    The whole of Tripura could be airborne , by Vedic gyroscopic mercury vortex technology, which could direct imploding and exploding vortices to propel or to stand still, while in air

    Vishnu gave a single arrow the Pashupatastra ( a scalar interferometry cruise missile ) , with could be triggered only by resonance from the pineal gland of Shiva .
    Shiva send this cruise missile which ripped through all three airborne forts one after the other in a devious search and destroy track. Tripura was reduced to ashes in a split second.’ Siva Purana.

    Now as to the question where is /was Tripura located ?

    Considering the fact that Vaivaswataha Manu migrated from the Dravida territory to Sarasvathi Valley,while Shiva, Ganesha and Muruga left through the Arabian Sea towards the west, middle-east to settle further east,

    The descendants of the group , which left Dravida for the Sarasvathi Valley,traveled  through Iran, Kazhakasthan through Russia to finally settle down at the Arctic,

    The Rig Veda was composed in the Arctic,

    my search was on to locate the places the descendants of Shiva visited.

    The term Asura means powerful.

    While Ravana from the southern part of Bharatavarsha is called a Rakashsa, the people of Atala, Atlantis were called Asuras.

    This term set me to search for a landmass which had a culture similar to Sanatana Dharma.

    There were two Tripuras.

    One at the North Pole and another at the Atlantis, the Atlantis.

    “ “Mahabharata” states that Tripura was “lap” and rotates on its axis, it can only be understood in the light of the theory Tilak. Such a circular rotation of possible only if it is located in the Center of the World – the North Pole. It is worth noting that the Indian Aryans used to refer to the sacred center of the world the term «nabhif», which means “navel”, “hub (wheel),” “the central point (space) ‘,’ hole recess.” Linked with it the idea of ​​a continuous circular motion. In the Upanishads, for example, the Brahman – the one who “move in circles – brightness, incorporeal, do not carry the scars, bezmuskulnaya, pure, untouched by sin … “It is He who came around.” In other words, the cycle of movement that triggered the manifestation of the eternal, created the worlds … “[7]. In “Isha Upanishad” of Brahman said: “It moves, and it does not move” (v. 5). Being in the center, being in itself, Brahman is stationary, but moves the whole world. Aurobindo says: “The Brahman himself at peace, quiet and motionless, in which he moves and nourishes the energy”. [8] Movement of the world is due to the stationary engine – center. The concept of the center as the wheel is rotating around a fixed axis, could be formed only where such a center was seen as the true reality – the North Pole. As Atlanta, after whom was named Atlantis, holds on his shoulders the vault of heaven, serving as the World Pillar and Indra performs a similar feat. In the “Rig Veda” a lot of places devoted to the description of the action: “Indra supported heaven” (RV. III. 44, 3)”

    Asura completely ceased to distinguish good from bad, day and night, and their fierce and bloody raids on neighbors terrified her senseless cruelty. All it means taking power in the military caste leaders.“Lost in greed and blinded mind, they started without shame or conscience ravage around all populated places. Always and everywhere to escape paying the gods with attendant hosts of the proud new found nothing, they walked, where they would not want to. So dear to the hearts of the gods groves of the gods, the holy abode of the sages, sacrificial pillars village people – all destroyed, defying boundaries insidious Danavas “[53]. On the spiritual fall of the asuras (children are given) report and the “Upanishads.” “Maitri Upanishad” speaks of them as blinded, full of affection, false praise, but “Chandogya Upanishad,” they were referred to as materialists to the worship of “a body”. [54] This is a very interesting concept historiosofic. The loss of the original sacred center leads to the fact that although the sacred tradition and reviving the secondary center, but it will soon deteriorate, without communication with the Divine Source.Considering the problem of the death of civilization, J. Evola writes: “Traditional – organic and articulated – the concept of the state always reflects that natural hierarchy of abilities inherent in man, taken as a whole, in which the purely physical and bodily elements control the vital forces, subordinates in turn spiritual life and character, and at the head of the body is spiritual and intellectual principle which the Stoics called the supreme ruler of the soul, gegemonikonom “[55]. This means that when the asuras put in the center of his life wealth, wealth and physical strength, they have violated the true hierarchy of being and rejected important tradition, which was the cause of their decline and demonic involution.The same ideas are contained in the dialogues of Plato. In the “Timaeus” refers to “the audacity of countless military forces going on a conquest of the whole of Europe and Asia”. [56] “Amazing for the size and power of the kingdom” Atlantis threw all power “to ensure that a single blow enslave both your and our lands, and in general all of the country on this side of the Strait”. [57] The kings of Atlantis, as well as masters of Tripura, are unjust war. Plato explains that in Atlanta “depleted relic of nature’s God” and goodness in them waned. [58] The kings of Atlantis were descendants of the god Poseidon and a mortal woman. Divine and the human were equally represented in them, but the situation gradually worsened.The philosopher says, “But when inherited from God weakened share, repeatedly dissolving in death impurity, and human nature prevailed, then they were not able to bear any longer his wealth and lost decency. For someone who is able to see, they were a shameful spectacle, because squandered the most beautiful of its values, but unable to see what is truly happy life, they looked beautiful and happy just like the time when they boiled unbridled greed and power “[
