Evolving of the remarkable book THE LEMURIAN SCROLLS is herewith described.

1. Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami, said his inner psychic eye opened on a book .


2. In 1997 the book was released after 24 years to the general public.


3. The book was written in 2 parts at the ashrams by the disciples : one part near the end of the Treta Yuga and the other in the Dvapara Yuga. quote


4. Mankind's migration from the Pleiades Star story of mankind's migration to Earth from the Pleiades star cluster during the Satya Yuga -- a story I will briefly summarize here.


5. They first arrived in subtle etheric bodies. They formed physical expressive bodies through uase of thick gases and healthful substances.


6. Those who were first to arrive aided the ones who arrived subsequently by making offerings to them of cut fruit, flowers and other substances, the essences of which the arriving beings used to manifest delicate physical forms. These bodies ebventually became densified.


7. The celestial beings would stand on the pedestal and absorb the Earth's pungent substances and with it materialize strong physical bodies. In the beginning it took a long time to bring the etheric body of a soul into physical form so he could walk off this pedestal on his own in the Earth's atmosphere.


8. This was done on the temple pedestal.


9. Celestial beings rapidly populated the earth from several of the different planets.


10. Thus, the souls arrived in full force to begin a long, tedious evolutionary pattern through the three yugas to follow.


11. Near the end of the Treta Yuga, some of these celestial beings were caught and eaten by the planet's carnivorous creatures, and in this manner they entered the evolutionary cycle of animals, being reborn afterwards with an animal nervous system and animal instincts but a divine soul The unique place of animals in the evolutionary cycle seems here to be accounted for.


12. Kali Yuga- Liberation from the animal body.


13. Western esotericism. Secret inner tradition of all religions claimed. The writings of Helena Blavatsky. In 1848, at the age of seventeen, the young Blavatsky fled on a stolen horse from an unhappy arranged marriage, to spend the next ten years wandering around the world, collecting esoteric wisdom from a wide assortment of gurus and masters -- Her 10 years of odyssey collecting esoteric wisdom from the masters attuning her higher self thereby.


14. In 1875, she cofounded the Theosophical Society.


15. Now a mature Adept in her own right, Blavatsky claimed to represent a secret association of mystical Adepts who had sent her forth to correct some errors that had developed in the nascent Spiritualist movement (which, she said, they also had created). An extraordinary account of Spiritualism's origins was given by an eminent Theosophist, the Countess Wachtmeister, addressing a Spiritualist audience in 1897.


16. As quoted by Jocelyn Godwin ("The Hidden Hand - Part I: The Provocation of the Hydesville Phenomena." Theosophical History. 1990. III/2) -- she related: A group of Atlantean Adepts, who had brought with them the traditions of that older period of time and the knowledge of Occultism, as practiced in those early days, seeing how the world was rushing down into materialism with rapid strides, noticing how, as persons were developing their intellectual powers, the churches gradually lost their hold upon them, and so having nothing to cling to they were drifting down into materialism, the Lodge determined to stop this terrible downward course; and a spiritual influx was thrown down here into America, and then began the Rochester manifestations, these Adepts being living men, great souls from Atlantis incarnated into the bodies of North American Indians. It was they who brought forward this grand movement of Spiritualism.
17. Tidal wave of humanity 7 great races andf the catalcysms of water and land displacement at the end of each successive age. Blavatsky
18. 4th and 5th races Atlantis and our prsent race.Communications between Atlantis and Egypt (not a colony of Atlantis). Ancient connection between Central American peoples and the Lost Continent of Atlantis.
19. Annie Besant's talk on the Brotherhood of Yucatan. Most of you have doubtless heard of the Brother­hood of Yucatan, in Mexico, an exceedingly remark­able group of Occultists, who came down by definite succession in Fourth Race bodies, maintaining the Fourth Race methods of occult progress...
20. They are utilising bodies whose nervous constitution is very much finer, is more highly organised, especially those who in the decadence of the Fourth Race went on under the special guidance of the White Lodge of the time, and took up methods which were specially intended to save the Fifth Race from the catastrophe in which a majority of the Fourth Race were over­whelmed in the great cataclysm of Atlantis.
21. None the less, as I say, the Fourth Race remains the majority [on earth today?], and this Occult Brotherhood of Yucatan is specially charged with looking after them. Their methods have always been -- as were Fourth Race methods of the past -- those which dealt with the advance of mankind through what is called now "the lower psychism" that is, through a number of occult phenomena connected with the physical plane and tangible, so that, on the physical plane, proofs might be afforded of the reality of the hidden worlds...
    

The following is excerpted from 2012 and the Shift of Ages: A Guide to
the End of the World (Adventures Unlimited Press).

In
the mid-1970's, a Hindu Guru of the 2,300-year-old Natha lineage,
Satguru Sivaya
Subramuniyaswami, said his inner psychic eye opened on a book
from the ancient
library of the deity Subramanya. In the weeks and months
that followed, his
disciples gathered close and transcribed while he watched
the pages turn and
read the text aloud. The result was a remarkable book,
Lemurian Scrolls, which
remained restricted to high-level initiates
in the Saiva Siddhanta Order for the
next twenty-four
years. In 1997, while preparing a private printing of a few
hundred copies
for long-time students, Subramuniyaswami relates that the "divine
thrust
came to release [Lemurian Scrolls] freely to the world at large," and the
book was published for the general public.
Lemurian Scrolls, he says,
was
written in two parts by disciples at ashrams in Lemuria, one part near
the end
of the Treta Yuga and the other in the Dvapara Yuga. The book opens
with the
story of mankind's migration to Earth from the Pleiades star
cluster during the
Satya Yuga -- a story I will briefly summarize here.
The first humans
arrived on Earth, the Scrolls say, in subtle etheric
bodies, and used the "thick
clouds of gases and healthful substances" on the
planet to form physical bodies
through which to express themselves. Those who were first to arrive aided the
ones who arrived
subsequently by making offerings to them of cut fruit, flowers
and other
substances, the essences of which the arriving beings used to manifest
delicate physical forms. Their bodies eventually became dense enough
to
smell and feel, and in time they were able to eat normally like the
animals that
already occupied the planet. This was done in temples, where
the priests would
make the offerings on a pedestal, which served as a focus
of concentration.
The celestial beings would stand on
the pedestal and absorb the Earth's
pungent substances and with it
materialize strong physical bodies. In the
beginning it took a long time to
bring the etheric body of a soul into physical
form so he could walk off
this pedestal on his own in the Earth's atmosphere.
But through the
thousands of years that passed, it became a very rapid process,
and the
entire Earth became populated with celestial beings from several of the
major planets in the galaxy. Thus, the souls
arrived in full force to begin a
long, tedious evolutionary pattern through
the three yugas to follow.
Near
the end of
the Treta Yuga, some of these celestial beings were caught and eaten
by the
planet's carnivorous creatures, and in this manner they entered the
evolutionary cycle of animals, being reborn afterwards with an animal
nervous
system and animal instincts but a divine soul. The process of
becoming liberated
from the animal body after that would take an extremely
long time, but during
the Kali Yuga, the Scrolls predicted, a human kingdom
would begin to emerge from
the animal kingdom, and at the end of the Kali
Yuga the conditions would appear
for many souls to become liberated, having
realized the Self and thus
accomplished their purpose in migrating to the
planet.

Since at least the latter half of the 18th century, Western esotericists have
claimed that there is a secret inner tradition that has been upheld by
enlightened people in every religion from ancient times to the present. Among
the proponents of this philosophy, the writings of Helena Blavatsky have
had a uniquely far-reaching impact.
Madame
Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (b. 1831 - d. 1891) was a daughter of Russian nobility
and an intellectual heiress to the Russian Age of Enlightenment. In 1848, at the
age of seventeen, the young Blavatsky fled on a stolen horse from an unhappy
arranged marriage, to spend the next ten years wandering around the world,
collecting esoteric wisdom from a wide assortment of gurus and masters -- no
doubt among many extraordinary adventures and equally extraordinary hardships.
In 1873, she immigrated to New York City, where in 1875 she co-founded the
Theosophical Society.
Now a mature Adept in her
own right, Blavatsky claimed to represent a secret association of mystical
Adepts who had sent her forth to correct some errors that had developed in the
nascent Spiritualist movement (which, she said, they also had created). An
extraordinary account of Spiritualism's origins was given by an eminent
Theosophist, the Countess Wachtmeister, addressing a Spiritualist audience in
1897. As quoted by Jocelyn Godwin ("The Hidden Hand - Part I: The Provocation of
the Hydesville Phenomena." Theosophical History. 1990. III/2) -- she related:
A group of Atlantean Adepts, who had brought with them the traditions of
that older period of time and the knowledge of Occultism, as practiced in those
early days, seeing how the world was rushing down into materialism with rapid
strides, noticing how, as persons were developing their intellectual powers, the
churches gradually lost their hold upon them, and so having nothing to cling to
they were drifting down into materialism, the Lodge determined to stop this
terrible downward course; and a spiritual influx was thrown down here into
America, and then began the Rochester manifestations, these Adepts being living men, great souls from Atlantis
incarnated into the bodies of North American Indians. It was they who brought
forward this grand movement of Spiritualism.
And all this
time we thought it was the dolphins.
In an article published in The
Theosophist in 1883, Madame Blavatsky succinctly summarized her own chronicle of
human history:
During the occupation of the Earth for one period by the
great tidal wave of humanity," she wrote, "seven great races are successively
developed, their end being in every case marked by a tremendous cataclysm which
changes the face of the earth in the distribution of land and water. The
present race of mankind, as often stated, is the fifth race. The inhabitants of
the great continent of Atlantis were the fourth race. When they were in their
prime, the European continent was not in existence as we know it now, but none
the less was there free communication between Atlantis and such portions of
Europe as did exist, and Egypt. The ancient Egyptians themselves were not an
Atlantic colony.
In the same article she
affirmed that there was "an ancient connection between the central American
peoples and the lost continent of Atlantis."
Annie Besant --
President of the Theosophical Society after the death of Blavatsky's successor
-- was essentially in agreement with Countess Wachtmeister's account. Joscelyn
Godwin -- my primary source for the history of Theosophy -- quotes from a talk
given by Besant in India during World War I and published in 1921; I reproduce
here a slightly different selection from the same talk, which I will quote at
length for different reasons.
Most of you have
doubtless heard of the Brother­hood of Yucatan, in Mexico, an exceedingly
remark­able group of Occultists, who came down by definite succession in
Fourth Race bodies, maintaining the Fourth Race methods of occult
progress... They are utilising bodies whose nervous
constitution is very much finer, is more highly organised, especially those who
in the decadence of the Fourth Race went on under the special guidance of the
White Lodge of the time, and took up methods which were specially intended to
save the Fifth Race from the catastrophe in which a majority of the Fourth Race
were over­whelmed in the great cataclysm of Atlantis. None the less, as I say, the Fourth Race remains the majority [on
earth today?], and this Occult Brotherhood of Yucatan is specially charged with
looking after them. Their methods have always been -- as were Fourth Race
methods of the past -- those which dealt with the advance of mankind through
what is called now "the lower psychism"; that is, through a number of occult phenomena connected with the
physical plane and tangible, so that, on the physical plane, proofs might be
afforded of the reality of the hidden worlds...
