Lemuria hypothetical or a reality..

[Carmen Elsa Irarragorri Wyland]

Lemuria is the name of a "lost land" variously located in the Indian and Pacific Oceans. The concept's 19th century origins lie in attempts to account for discontinuities in biogeography; however, the concept of Lemuria has been rendered obsolete by modern theories of plate tectonics. Although sunken continents do exist — like Zealandia in the Pacific and the Kerguelen Plateau in the Indian Ocean — there is no known geological formation under the Indian or Pacific Oceans that corresponds to the hypothetical Lemuria.

Though Lemuria is no longer considered a valid scientific hypothesis, it has been adopted by writers involved in the occult, as well as some Tamil writers of India. Accounts of Lemuria differ, but all share a common belief that a continent existed in ancient times and sank beneath the ocean as a result of a geological, often cataclysmic, change. There is no scientific evidence to support these claims.

"Lemuria" entered the lexicon through the works of Helena Blavatsky, who claimed that the Mahatmas had shown her an ancient, pre-Atlantean Book of Dzyan...Within Blavatsky's complex cosmology, which includes seven "Root Races", the "Third Root Race" occupied Lemuria.

She describes them as about 7 feet (2.1 m) tall, sexually hermaphroditic, egg-laying, mentally undeveloped and spiritually more pure than the following "Root Races".

Before the coming of the Lemurians, the second "Root Race" is said to have dwelled in Hyperborea.

After the subsequent creation of mammals, Madam Blavatsky revealed to her readers, some Lemurians turned to bestiality.

The gods, aghast at the behavior of these "mindless" men, sank Lemuria into the ocean and created a "Fourth Root Race" – endowed with intellect – on Atlantis?

The later theosophical author William Scott-Elliot gave one of the most elaborate accounts of lost continents. The English theosophist received his knowledge from Charles Webster Leadbeater, who communicated with the Theosophical Masters by "astral clairvoyance".

In 1896 he published The Story of Atlantis, followed in 1904 by The Lost Lemuria, in which he included a map of the continent of Lemuria as stretching from the east coast of Africa across the Indian and the Pacific Oceans."

To me Lemuria is a reality, but it exist in a much higher dimension, and I have memories of it, and it can become visible to me, if and when I raise my awareness and consciousness. Thus it is still there, as everything is that is not limited by our perception of time and space.
