     Lemuria The Home of Tamils My Tedtalk at Coimbatore.

    I delivered a talk under the aegis of Tedx ,Combatore on April 8th.

    The event was streamed live.

    I am yet to receive the video or the photographs from the event organisers.

    I saw the photos at Tedx Coimbatore site.

    Many readers ,who have watched the event Live, have been asking me to share the material.

    As I had told the organisers I am very uncomfortable speaking from a prepared text or notes and I speak extempore.

    As the time allotted was 13 minutes, I had to prepare notes and it was a novel and nerve racking experience for me to take notes and rehearse at 1.30 am(?), with two people with Timers.

    It is a different matter that I did not follow the prepared text to the letter in the Talk,though I was  informed stuck to points and ppt thrown up on the screen.

    I am reproducing the Talk from the notes I had prepared.

    I shall share the video as and when received.

    One hundred and fifty years ago, on May 30, 1863, young geologist Robert Bruce Foote bent down and picked up a stone tool on the Parade Ground at Pallavaram cantonment, near Chennai. It turned out to be an epochal discovery. Foote’s discovery revolutionised the study of India’s pre-history.

    Attirampakkam (13°13′50″N, 79°53′20″E, 38.35 m a.s.l), is an open-air Palaeolithic site situated near a meandering tributary stream of the river Kortallaiyar, northwest of Chennai.

The movement of the earth mass, called Navalam Theevu in Tamil, caused the formation of the present continent of India.(McKenzie and Sclater American Geologists).

    7.Lemuria, one of the world’s oldest civilizations, about 2.5 lakh years ago, in Indonesia. Hence, Lemuria and Kumari Kandam, which existed in southern part of India, are different lands.

    (Frank Joseph, Secretary for Ancient American Association, in his book “The Lost Civilization of Lemuria”, )

    8.It was only during the final days of Atlantis that the Lemurians broke these seals and thus saved many surface dwellers from certain death. These people formed a society that subsequently returned for a time to the surface and became the Rama Empire situated in Southern Asia. Then the Great Flood of 8,000 BC ended this attempt to save humanity from the dark ways of the Anunnaki.  (Atlantis Legend)

    The points mentioned are explained in detail in the site, Category ,Tamils.

    I shall locate them and share as, as usual I forgot.

    This was what I intended to speak.

    Question: Who here can remember the name of their great, great

    grandfather?

    Glory of Tamil Language

    1) A language which is so structured that the sounds of the alphabet

    are reflected in its very name – Tamil

    2) Complex and Noble thoughts – 7 words – Tirukural. Long poetic

    story in 1 sentence without full stop – Silapadikaram

    3) Helps you think clearly and express precisely – because of its

    mathematically oriented grammatic structure (Short example)

    4) Ranked on par with Sanskrit – Evolved to grammatical precision

    over 1,50,000 years

    Where did this language come from? My research has revealed

    that it comes from a lost continent – a continent called Kumari

    Kandam.

    (Describing geography and size of Kumari Kandam)

    1) Kumari Kandam – Named after Kanyakumari

    2) It was immense having a land mass of 34 million square miles –

    approximately 29 times the size of present India. And it had a

    population of 64 million.

    3) It extended to Newzealand, spain etc.

    4) Traces of Lemuria can be found even today – Agastya in New

    Zealand, Shiva dance in Australia, Boomerang as an ancient

    weapon.

    5) So diverse – It was divided into 7 groups of 7 each, totalling 49

    territories – Mango land, coconut land etc

    6) And there was something special about those territories –

    Question to audience – How many here have family deities –

    please raise hand. Actually very ancient custom – In Kumari

    Kantam they assigned different Gods to different lands.

    What kind of a society did they have?

    Very intricate and elaborate society structure. For instance, lets take

    marriage – how many types of marriage do we have today? I would say

    3 types – Arranges, Love and Elopment/Running Away.

    In Kumari Kantam they had 7 types of marriage… What happened to this society?

    Unfortunately a tsunami destroyed Kumari Kandam in1780 BC

    approximately. Only remnants of this great society can be found

    throughout the world. Let’s look at a few remnants in India.

    1) Remnants of Great literature

    2) Poomphuhar etc.

    3) Traditions such as Ancestory worship, Pongal, Adi Perukku, Chitra

    Pournami

    Conclusion

    In conclusion , I’d like to leave you with a few thoughts on the

    amazingly pervasive nature of Tamil culture.

    1) Manu – Man, First human being was a king of Tamil nation

    2) A Tamil Chera king was such a legendary figure for his honesty

    and integrity that he was appointed to feed the warring armies

    in Mahabarata.

    3) Tamil has a great soul! City is mine and everyone is my relativE.

    What I actually spoke will be known when I receive the Video.

  • Tamraparni River Flowed in Lemuria

    References in Indian literature might be wished away,if one language mentions a fact.

    But it can not be if two languages,which are totally different from each other in Grammar,literature mention the same fact.

    ‘

    Mahabharata

    “Listen as I now recount the isle of Tamraparni below Pandya-desa and KanyaKumari, gemmed upon the ocean. The gods underwent austerities there, in a desire to attain greatness. In that region also is the lake of Gokarna…Pulastya said… Then one should go to Gokarna, renowned in the three worlds. O Indra among kings! It is in the middle of the ocean and is worshipped by all the worlds. Brahma, the Devas, the rishis, the ascetics, the bhutas (spirits or ghosts), the yakshas, the pishachas, the kinnaras, the great nagas, the siddhas, the charanas, the gandharvas, humans, the pannagas, rivers, ocean and mountains worship Uma’s consort there”. Mahabharata. Volume 3. pp. 46-47, 99.’

    One must also remember that the culture of people who spoke and wrote in these languages was different,though there is unity lying underneath the surface.

    I am referring to Sanskrit,two of the ancient languages of not only of India,but of the world.

    These two repeatedly mention the Tamraparani River,now flowing in the south of Tamil Nadu.

    Tamraparni is referred to in Tamil Classic Kalithogai and Sanskrit texts.

    Tamraparani,aka Thammabanni in Pali flowed into Sri Lanka and Vijaya,the first King of Lanka was from Tamils.

    The river flowed into Sri Lanka as well.

    Kumari Kandam.image
    Kumari kandam

    Considering this and Manu having meditated in Madagascar, I postulate that Tamraparni flowed into Lemuria in ancient times and dynasties flourished.

    ‘

    While researching for the material to support my view, I had come across information about the Malaya Mountain, Malayamarutha.

    Malayamarutha is often mentioned in the Ramayana and repeatedly in Tamil Literature.

    Tamil is so obsessive with Malaya Mountain, even the Gentle breeze is named after it, Malaya Marutham.

    This wind is recorded to have emanated from the south.’

    Manu meditated in Madagascar

    Sakatdvipa was 25,600,000 mile

     

    The 49 lands

    This land was divided into 49 Naadu, or territories (probably of the size of small districts) between Kumari river and Pahruli / Prahuli / Pakruli river. These are named as seven coconut territories (Ezhu Tenga Natu), seven Madurai territories (Ezhu Maturai Natu), seven old sandy territories (Ezhu Mun-palai Natu), seven new sandy territories (Ezhu Pin-palai Natu), seven mountain territories (Ezhu Kunra Natu), seven eastern coastal territories (Ezhu Kuna Karai Natu) and seven dwarf-palm territories (Ezhu Kurum Panai Natu). All these lands, together with the many-mountained land that began with Kumari-Kollam, with forests and habitations, were submerged by the sea.

    Tamil Nadu was not the whole Tamil Kingdom.

    Block quote from,

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamraparni is the reference for this article.

    ‘an ancient name of a river proximal to Tirunelveli of South India and Puttalam of Western Sri Lanka.A toponym, “Tamraparniyan” is eponymous with the socio-economic and cultural history of this area and its people. Movement of people across the Gulf of Mannar during the early Pandyan and Anuradhapura periods, between the Tirunelveli river of Pothigai, Adam’s Peak and the estuary of the Gona Nadi/Kala Oya river of Northwest Sri Lanka, Java and Sumatra led to the shared application of the name for the closely connected region’s culture.The entire island of Sri Lanka itself was known in the ancient world as “Tamraparni”, with use dating to before the 6th century BC. It is a rendering of the original Tamil name Tān Poruṇai of the Sangam period, “the cool river Porunai”

    ‘the original Tān Poruṇai river in the Eṭṭuttokai anthlogy, meaning “the cool river Porunai”, to Tān Poruṇdam then Tamira Porunai, to Tamraparni then Tambraparni and now called Thamirabarani River.A meaning for the term following its derivation became “copper-colored leaf”, from the words Thamiram (copper/red) in Tamil/Sanskrit and parani meaning leaf/tree, translating to “river of red leaves”

    ‘The region stretching to Sri Lanka south of Tirunelveli – the citadel of the Pandyan kingdom around the Tān Poruṇai river in Tamil Nadu – was referred to as Tamraparna by extension in the ancient period; Korkai, one of the Pandyan kingdom’s early capitals and the epicentre of the pearl trade, was located at the river’s mouth.Referring to pearls, Kautilya in his Arthasastra speaks of two varieties, “Pandya-Kavadaka” (of Kavadapuram) and “Thamro Par nika, that which is produced in the Tamraparni”, and notes the Pandya country is famed for its gems and pearls. He describes Tamraparni as “a large river, which went to meet and traverse the sea (samudram avaghate) containing the row of islands”. In the grammar anthology Tolkāppiyam, the Chera king Yanaikatchai Mantaran Cheral Irumporai, a contemporary of Pandyan king Nedunjeliyan II c. 135 AD, is mentioned in the phrase honouring the Lord of the river Tān-Poruṇai thus, Vitar-c-cilai poritta ventan vali, Pun-tan porunai-p-poraiyan vali, Mantaran ceral mannavan vali which describes “Long live the king who engraved in the hill, Long live the lord of the river Porunai filled with flowers and cool water, Long live the King Mantaran Chera”

  • Lemuria Size 34 Million Square Miles Details Evidence

    There is skepticism about the lost continent of Lemuria.

    However there are extensive references to Lemuria in Tamil Literature of the Sangam Period .

    Multiple ancient and medieval Tamil and Sanskrit works contain legendary accounts of lands in South India being lost to the ocean. The earliest explicit discussion of a katalkol (“seizure by ocean”, possibly the sea water rise) of Pandyan land is found in a commentary on Iraiyanar Akapporul. This commentary, attributed to Nakkeerar, is dated to the later centuries of the 1st millennium CE. It mentions that the Pandyan kings, an early Tamil dynasty, established three literary academies (sangams). The first two sangams were not located in South India now but in an ancient Tamil country in the south which then sank. The first sangam flourished for 4,400 years in a city called Tenmaturai, attended by 549 poets (including Agastya) and presided over by gods like Shiva, Kubera and Murugan. The second sangam lasted for 3,700 years in a city called Kapatapuram, attended by 59 poets (including Agastya, again). The commentary states that both the cities were “seized by the ocean”, resulting in loss of all the works created during the first two sangams. The third sangam was established in Uttara (North) Madurai, where it is said to have lasted for 1,850 years. The Pandyan capital of Kapatapuram finds mention in the Ramayana and Chanakya’s Arthasastra (ca 4th century BCE).

    Nakkeerar’s commentary does not mention the size of the territory lost to the sea. The size is first mentioned in a 15th-century commentary on Silappatikaram. The commentator Adiyarkunallar mentions that the lost land extended from Pahruli river in the north to the Kumari river in the South. It was located to the south of Kanyakumari, and covered an area of 700 kavatam (a unit of unknown measurement). It was divided into 49 territories (natu), classified in seven categories: elu teñku natu(“seven coconut lands”), elu maturai natu (“seven mango lands”), elu munpalai natu(“seven front sandy lands”), elu pinpalai natu (“seven back sandy lands”), elu kunra natu (“seven hilly lands”), elu kunakarai natu (“seven coastal lands”) and elu kurumpanai natu (“seven dwarf-palm lands”).’

    Consider the following facts.

    1..The Vedas mention Tamil kings and goods like Sandalwood,Pearls having been imported from Dravida Desa, Dravida means Sooth.

    2.Vaivswatha Manu, the first of the present  Kali Yuga,  meditated  in  plateau near Madagascar  before migrating to Ayodhya.

    3.Ancestor of Rama, Nala visited Thirunallaru, Pondicherry. .

    The temple at Thirunallaru is dedicated to Shani, Saturn and is a place where one goes on Pilgrimage to ward off Saturn’s malfeasance.

    Nala visited  the Pond in the temple, called Nala Theertha to ward off Saturn’s effects.

    Nala Theertha is still there at Thirunallar and people follow the same tradition is followed even to day.

    4.Mahabharata refers to Nala having visited the place in the Vana Parva.

    5.Tami kings were present  in the Swayamvra of Damayanti, who later became the wife of Nala.

    6.Tami Kings were present in Sita’s and Draupadi’s Swayamvara.

    7.Madurai Meenakshi’s father fought along side the Pandavas in the Mahabharata battle.

    8.Tamil King Udiyan Cheralaathan fed both the Pandava’s and the Kaurva Army in Mahabharata war.

    9.Lord Krishna, Arjuna, Balarama,Sahadeva were on a Pilgrimage to south.

    10.Tamil Kings were present in Yudhitra’s Rajasuya Yaaga.

    11.Shiva and Subrahmanya were worshiped widely  in the south much before than the Sanatana Dharma .

    12.Patanjali who founded the Yoga System learned it from Lord Shiva/Agastya from the south.

    12.Sage Agastya  who is considered as a co founder of Tamil along with Lord Shiva and Subrahmanya (called as Murugan in Tamil) is found in New Zealand.

    13.Maoris and other aboriginal tribes  still speak a corrupted form of Tamil.

    14. Australian Tribes perform Shiva’s Trinetra dance even today.

    15.Tamil ancestry has been found among the Mu, Sumerian civilizations.

    16.Lord Ram waged a War against Atlantis when an atom bomb was dropped in Mohenjadaro.

    You may read detailed article on each of these by googling the search term +ramanan 50.

    Now to the size of Lemuria,

    Lemuria  was located to the south of Kanyakumari, and covered an area of 700 kavatam, staes Nakkerar in his commentry of Iraiynar Agapporul.

    Irayanar refers to Lord Shiva.

    This work belongs to Sangam Era of Tamil and is lost ans known by its reference to it in the later Tamil works.

    The distance from Kanykumari to Zealand is   11.204 Km.

    ‘

    Kanyakumari To New Zealand Distance – 11223 Km 880 Mtrs http://www.distancesbetween.com/flight-distance/distance-from-kanyakumari-to-new-zealand/21327/ic4/

    In miles it is 7002.

    One Kavatam is equivalent to 10 Miles and seven Hundred Kavatam is 7000 Miles .

    Lemuria extended from North to South from Kanykumari to new Zealand, 7000 Miles!

    From the East to West.

    ‘There have been numerous locations picked for Atlantis, from Sweden to Indonesia. Nearly all of them are wrong. Plato was quite clear on the location. All of the others are, by definition, not Atlantis. According to Timaeus and Critias, the two dialogues which are the source of the Atlantis story, the lost island was beyond the Strait of Gibraltar, in the Atlantic Ocean. The nearest portion of Atlantis was facing a region in Southwestern Spain called Gadira. This is the region surrounding modern Cádiz (Phoenician Gadir, Roman Gades and Moorish Qādis). Most claimants ignore this very specific detail from Critias”

    That is , from to Spain, the outer most reach of Atlantis towards East to Kanykumari is,

    4941 Miles.

    (The air travel (bird fly) shortest distance between Spain and India is 7,951 km= 4,941 miles. http://www.distancefromto.net/distance-from-spain-to-india

    So the size of sunken Lemuria could have been 7000* 4941, that is  34,587,000 Square  Miles.

  • Bhagavatha Skanda Purana Identify Kumari Kandam

    When one goes through the History of ancient India in detail by checking up various texts in  all the languages o India, especially the  ancient ones like Sanskrit and Tamil one finds that they corroborate each other.

    Tamils, an ancient people of India, though followers of Hinduism have  a distinct identity o their own and have influenced the practices of Sanatana Dharma to such an extent that some Vedic practices have been modified  by the Rishis  and these practices are being followed by the  people from the South  of Vindhyas.

    2d606-kumarikandam1
    Kumari Kandam ,The Sunken Continent

    The Rishi was Apasthamba and the wearing of Mangal Sutra was introduced from the Tamil Culture to Vedic Marriages.

    Through the canards of  Aryan Invasion and the myth that Tamils were against Sanskrit and Sanatana Dharma, facts point to the act that each support and corroborate the other.

    Please read my articles on these subjects.

    While the reference to Lord Subrahmanya as Skanda in Vedas is sketchy the Tamils worship Murugan, name meaning unsurpassed Beauty, was carried to such heights that he is credited with Lord Shiva and Sage Agastya as the founder of the  Tamil Language.

    Lord Murugan has temples all over Tamil Nadu and one o the earliest temples in Pondicherry Saluvarkuppam is dated around 300 BC!

    His six special temples called Arupadai Veedu, Six houses wich show the correct Path are in Tamil Nadu.

    One of these is in Tiruchendur in Tamil Nadu on the eastern coast.

    He is reported to have won Sura Padma and killed him from here.

     

    Note that Kumarikandam lies in that area.

    ‘In the 19th century, a section of the European and American scholars speculated the existence of a submerged continent calledLemuria, to explain geological and other similarities between Africa, India and Madagascar. A section of Tamil revivalists adapted this theory, connecting it to the Pandyan legends of lands lost to the ocean, as described in ancient Tamil and Sanskrit literature. According to these writers, an ancient Tamil civilization existed on Lemuria, before it was lost to the sea in a catastrophe. In the 20th century, the Tamil writers started using the name “Kumari Kandam” to describe this submerged continent. Although the Lemuria theory was later rendered obsolete by the continental drift (plate tectonics) theory, the concept remained popular among the Tamil revivalists of the 20th century. According to them, Kumari Kandam was the place where the first two Tamil literary academies (sangams) were organized during the Pandyan reign. They claimed Kumari Kandam as the cradle of civilization to prove the antiquity of Tamil language and culture.”

    Kumari Kandam is detailed in ancient Tamil Literature in detail, including the Cilappadikaram and Manimekalai.

    They record that, as the Sangam Literature does, that the Kumarikandam was destroyed by a Tsunami.

    Kumarikandam is proved.

    Please check my articles on this.

    Skanda Purana deals with Lord Subrahmanya’s birth and exploits.

    This also mentions Kumrikandam thus.

    ‘”Within Bhārata-varṣa, there are nine khaṇḍas. They are known as (1) Aindra, (2) Kaśeru, (3) Tāmraparṇa, (4) Gabhastimat, (5) Kumārikā, (6) Nāga, (7) Saumya, (8) Vāruṇa and (9) Gāndharva.”

     

    CC Antya 2.10, Translation and Purport:

    People from all over the universe, including the seven islands, the nine khaṇḍas, the planets of the demigods, Gandharvaloka and Kinnaraloka, would go there in the forms of human beings.

    For an explanation of sapta-dvīpa, see Madhya-līlā, Chapter Twenty, verse 218, and Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Fifth Canto, Chapters Sixteen and Twenty. In the Siddhānta-śiromaṇi, Chapter One (Golādhyāya), in the Bhuvana-kośa section, the nine khaṇḍas are mentioned as follows:

    aindraṁ kaśeru sakalaṁ kila tāmraparṇam
    anyad gabhastimad ataś ca kumārikākhyam
    nāgaṁ ca saumyam iha vāruṇam antya-khaṇḍaṁ
    gāndharva-saṁjñam iti bhārata-varṣa-madhye,’

    ‘Kumari Kandam is described as the kingdom of the Earth in theAndakosappadalam section of Kanda Puranam.’

    Aindram a Grammatical work of the early Tamils was destroyed.

    This might be from the land mass Aindra.

    Tamraparnam might mean the early Tamisl 47 Kingdoms.

    River Tamraparni still flows in Thirunelveli district, Tamil Nadu.

    This river lowed, in earlier times to further south  and joined the sea in Kumarikndam as the now defunct  ancient River Pahruli.

  • Rama Atlantis War Kavatam Periplus Port Window Of Lemuria

    I have recently published an article Rama Atlantis War, where I had mentioned that Seth of Osiris lineage fought with Rama and Rama defeated him, thereby establishing the Rama Empire in Sumeria.

    Osiris’s son Horus entered into a treaty with Lord Rama to fight against Seth who usurped the Kingdom in Sumeria and Osiris also wanted to check the power of the Lemurians.

    Now Lemuria is called as Kumari Kandam in Tamil Literature and Tamil Literature abounds in Lemuria references.

    Please read my posts on this.

    If Horus and Rama had entered into a pact to defeat Seth and Lemurians, who were Lemurians and in what state had they had been?

    I remembered the description in Tamil of the Kumarikandam especially in the Sangam Literature and their assertion about the city of Kapadapuram, also called as Kavatam.

    ‘According to historians, Kuadam was very close to Tiruchendur. Abraham Pandithar says that Greeks in those days named it as Periplus port’ ( Wiki)

    The Tami land extended from Kapadapuram to Then Madurai.

    The distance is about 7460Kms and the western side the land stretched to Africa!( 700 Katham)

    In this area there were 49 Tamil Kingdoms, called Ezheezh Nadukal( 7*7 countries).

    ‘

    Adiyarkunallar mentions that the lost land extended from Pahruli river in the north to the Kumari river in the South. It was located to the south of Kanyakumari, and covered an area of 700 kavatam (a unit of unknown measurement). It was divided into 49 territories (natu), classified in the following seven categories:

    • Elu teñku natu (“Seven coconut lands”)
    • Elu Maturai natu (“Seven mango lands”)
    • Elu munpalai natu (“Seven front sandy lands”)
    • Elu pinpalai natu (“Seven back sandy lands”)
    • Elu kunra natu (“Seven hilly lands”)
    • Elu kunakarai natu (“Seven coastal lands”)
    • Elu kurumpanai natu (“Seven dwarf-palm lands”)(wiki)

    Many Tamil Hindu shrines have legendary accounts of surviving the floods mentioned in Hindu mythology. These include the prominent temples of Kanyakumari, Kanchipuram, Kumbakonam, Madurai, Sirkazhi and Tiruvottiyur.[8]:57–69 There are also legends of temples submerged under the sea, such as the Seven Pagodas of Mahabalipuram. The Puranas place the beginning of the most popular Hindu flood myth – the legend of Manu – in South India. The Sanskrit-language Bhagavata Purana (dated 500 BCE-1000 CE) describes its protagonist Manu (aka Satyavrata) as the Lord of Dravida (South India). TheMatsya Purana (dated 250–500 CE) also begins with Manu practicing tapas on Mount Malaya of South India.[8]:57 Manimeghalai (dated around 6th century CE) mentions that the ancient Chola port city of Kavirippumpattinam (present-day Puhar) was destroyed by a flood. It states that this flood was sent by the Hindu deity Indra, because the king forgot to celebrate a festival dedicated to him.

    There are refernces in Atlantis legends that the earth had an inner core populated with people.

    “The first is Mother Earth’s inner crust, which is a continuation of the external surface crust. The two Polar Regions each have a large entrance or hole, somewhat like a cored apple, and the crust wraps itself down and around the mantle into the hollow interior. The outer and inner crusts have very similar topography: Both comprise oceans, continents, mountain ranges, lakes, and rivers. It is merely that the inner crust faces the Earth’s core. This core glows and is surrounded by a cloudy veil. The light given off is more diffuse that the light of the Sun, so the daylight in inner Earth is softer and gentler than on the Earth’s external surface. The second main feature of inner Earth is the so-called cavern worlds. These are immense hollows within the mantle, some of which are natural features created by Mother Earth, while others were made using the advanced technology of inner Earth’s major society, the land of Aghartha. This land is the last living remnant of Earth’s second Galactic Federation colony, Lemuria.

    Lemuria, in her original form, was a surface society with a subterranean component. The primary capital city was situated on the large island that sank beneath the waves of the Pacific some 25,000 years ago. A secondary capital city was located in inner Earth. It was to this city that the government of Lemuria moved after the cataclysm. The new ruler of the surface, the Empire of Atlantis, ordered the major tunnel entrances to be sealed. It was only during the final days of Atlantis that the Lemurians broke these seals and thus saved many surface dwellers from certain death. These people formed a society that subsequently returned for a time to the surface and became the Rama Empire situated in Southern Asia. Then the Great Flood of 8,000 BC ended this attempt to save humanity from the dark ways of the Anunnaki. Despite this setback, Lemuria persisted in her role of protecting the surface world from these havoc-wreaking rapscallions. It was her galactic emissaries that maintained membership for this solar system in the Galactic Federation.

    After the Great Flood and the demise of the Rama Empire, the Lemurians regrouped and named their newly combined society Aghartha. The capital Shamballah was relocated to a cavern located far beneath the city of Lhasa in modern Tibet. Many tunnels connect Shamballah to the surface in the Himalayas. These were used by holy men who came to spread their great energy and divine wisdom to the outside world. In this area, an extraordinary place was kept for special occasions, where holy men and their chosen disciples met in order to maintain Mother Earth’s sacred energy grids. This work, together with numerous rituals performed daily throughout inner Earth, is largely responsible for keeping alive the divine energy that is Lemuria’s main legacy to the surface peoples of Mother Earth. Lemuria, and later on Aghartha, have continuously held the Light for your transformation back into fully conscious Beings of Light.”( Source. http://www.paoweb.com/sn020706.htm)

    The term Kapatam means Window.

    Probably the reference in the Atlantis legend means Kapadapuram when they say Lemurians emerge from the sea.

    The Kapadapuram was established by  a Tamil Pandya King .

    ‘With this loss of the large territories of the Pandiya country and the demise the Paandiya king Kadungkon, the next successor to Paandiyan throne was the king Paandiyan Nediyoan. This king escaped the great disaster and moved more towards the north and captured many new regions including parts of Chera and Chola countries and made them into a new Pandiyan country.

    He distributed the captured lands to his subjects who met the loss of their own lands but possibly escaped this great tragedy, made him get the title “Nilam Tharu Thiruvit Pandiyan” (which means: “the Pandiyan who made the kind gesture of lands”) and as “Nilam Tharu Thiruvit Nediyoan”.

    The Paandiyan king Nediyon built his new capital city at Kapaadapuram (Kavaadam) closer to the sea. The Paandiyan king with a view of preventing further sea disasters had a festival in celeberation for the Sea God, and hence he was known as “Munneer Vilavu Nediyon” (Munner Vilavu = Sea (God) celeberation) and also as “Vadivalamba nintra Paandiyan”.

    He also excavated a new artificial river named “Pahruli Aaru” flowing through the city of Kapaadapuram towards the sea of the Indian Ocean possibly to make the region fertile and self sufficient in water.

    He also re-organised the Second Thamil Sangam at Kapaadapuram and as an initial measure requested the renowned Tamil Poet of the period the Tholkaappianaar to compose a new Tamil Grammer, as the original Tamil Grammer composed during the period of first Thamil Sangam by the great Poet Agaththiyar known as Ahaththiyam, apparently was lost in the great Land Slide in which the first capital city ‘Then Mathurai’ (South Mathurai) also known as “Naan maadak Koodal” went under sea.

    (Source.  http://www.mayyam.com/talk/showthread.php?9994-A-brief-study-on-the-Pandiyas-(Paandiyar)-of-the-quot-Second-Sangam-quot-Period-of-Tamil-Nadu)

    “. The new ruler of the surface, the Empire of Atlantis, ordered the major tunnel entrances to be sealed. It was only during the final days of Atlantis that the Lemurians broke these seals and thus saved many surface dwellers from certain death. These people formed a society that subsequently returned for a time to the surface and became the Rama Empire situated in Southern Asia. Then the Great Flood of 8,000 BC ended this attempt to save humanity from the dark ways of the Anunnaki.”

    The Atlantis people’ sealing the Lemurians’ probably means the Mascarene plateau.

    Lemuria existed south of this plateau, which was consumed by the sea about 6000 years ago.

    The surfacing of Rama dynasty may indicate the fact that Satyavrata Manu ancestor of Rama had migrated to Ayodhya(whose son Ikshvaku founded the Ikshvaku Dynasty) and the subsequent emergence of Lord Rama and His Kingdom.

    One may note that the Ramayana and the Puranas call the Tamil areas as Dravida, meaning South, Dasyu, meaning who do not follow all the percepts of Sanatana Dharma( though they were practicing Sanatana Dharma they were not Fire (Agni) worshipers),and Viswamitra banished his sons to the south directing them to go to the Dasyu Land.

    Normally this area has been taken as stretching from the Vindhyas, but due to the emergence of the Fact about Mascarene Plataeu , the reference may be to Manscarene plateau

    To sum up,

    The Lemurians (Tamils) were in existence during the Ramayana Period,

    Their land was extended to Then Madurai from Kapadapuram.

    They were a part of the Rama Empire,

    the Tamil Timeline is,

    1. Mathivanan, then Chief Editor of the Tamil Etymological Dictionary Project of the Government of Tamilnadu, in 1991 … the following timeline …:ca. 200,000 to 50,000 BC: evolution of “the Tamilian or Homo Dravida”,
      ca. 200,000 to 100,000 BC: beginnings of the Tamil language
      50,000 BC: Kumari Kandam civilisation
      20,000 BC: A lost Tamil culture of the Easter Island which had an advanced civilisation
      16,000 BC: Lemuria submerged
      6087 BC: Second Tamil Sangam established by a Pandya king
      3031 BC: A Chera prince in his wanderings in the Solomon Island saw wild sugarcane and started cultivation in Tamilnadu.
      1780 BC: The Third Tamil Sangam established by a Pandya king
      7th century BC: Tolkappiyam (the earliest extant Tamil grammer)…

    The continent was destroyed by three large floods which wiped out most of the golden civilization with it:
