Great book

Anything by frank Joseph is amazing. This is no different. A very well thought out and presented case for the existance of both Atlantis as well as Lemuria. I Highly reccommend it.

Fascinating!

I have been fascinated with ancient cultures (and possible ancient cultures) since I was a teenager - and I continue to be awed by the archeological findings & ideas presented about civilizations that may have been much more technologically advanced than we've given them credit for... If you have similar interests, "Edgar Cayce's Atlantis & Lemuria" will be of great interest to you. It recounts Edgar Cayce's readings about the sunken lands of Atlantis & Lemuria, and shows how stories that closely match these readings have been handed down over millenia in various cultures - as well as how recent archeological finds have also closely matched the information given during Cayce's readings. Plato wrote of Atlantis thousands of years ago, and even though we recognize him for being a person who consistently pursued the truth, his writings on Altantis is one of the few things our society discounts as fancy - doesn't that seem odd? Although there is no proof yet - proving once and for all that Atlantis is a tale or truth - there does seem to be quite a lot of compelling evidence for the latter. I guess only time, and open-minded archeologists & scientists, will tell... Overall, I found this book to be an interesting, thought-provoking read. If you are at all interested in the possible existence of Atlantis, I would highly recommend it.

Fills In The Missing Pieces Of The History Books

I feel this is a great book, especially for followers of Edgar Cayce. I don't understand why some other reviewers said that this book somehow corrects what Edgar Cayce said. To me it is in complete agreement with what Cayce said, even to the point of devoting an entire chapter to people who were identified in the Cayce readings as having lived in Atlantis. They had names like 'Aa-rr-ll-uu' and 'Sululon'. Scientific evidence does not exist to prove things like the Atlanteans' crystal technology, their ability to travel through time and space, etc.. Since the author is a researcher he doesn't claim that scientific evidence exists where none does exist. But I don't see where he tries to disprove these fantastic but possibly true theories either. This book discusses the Atlantis that Plato spoke of but by then Atlantis was much like the other races that existed around 1200 BC. This was a much different Atlantis than the one Cayce spoke of with its crystal technology, death rays, genetically engineered 'things', etc.. The islands of Atlantis sank over a period of thousands of years, not all at once if I understand the legends correctly. I believe that proof of Atlantean technology does exist. It's been sitting on the Giza plateau for thousands of years. It's called 'the great pyramid'. In his book The Giza Power Plant Christopher Dunn proves that the great pyramid was a form of nuclear reactor. Dunn's book proves that the great pyramid was built by people who had god like powers and knowledge of time and space. It was Edgar Cayce in another incarnation as the high priest Ra Ta who built the great pyramid. The sacred geometry for building the great pyramid was given to Ra Ta by another god like being named Horus. This idea is consistent with 'Edgar Cayce's Atlantis And Lemuria'. This book indicates that these god like beings from Atlantis and Lemuria became the mythical gods of later races such as the Incas and Myans. Those later races talk of 'gods' who came from the sea and taught them about new technologies, astronomy, etc.. Eventually most of this knowledge was lost as these civilizations de-volved to the point of like the Incas began the practice of human sacrifice. There's a big part of the Atlantis story that's still enshrouded in mystery. All we have is a few statements from Cayce's psychic readings and a few archeological sites under water. You get glimpses of these mysterious topics when in the Cayce readings it refers to things like 'visitations of those from the outer spheres'. This would seem to imply that Atlantis was being visited by beings from other planets, other dimensions, etc.. This book offers a comparison between what happened to Atlantis and our modern world. Atlantis was destroyed by the greed of individuals. For them this was catastrophic because their greed could be transformed into energy by the terrible crystals. The final paragraph of this book is: "Everyone senses a crossroads just ahea

Enhanced with a photo section of fascinating areas

In Edgar Cayce's Atlantis And Lemuria: The Lost Civilizations In The Light Of Modern Discoveries, Frank Joseph (editor-in-Chief of the popular science magazines "Ancient American") examines through the means of archaeological and other fields, how modern discovers are bolstering the idea that Atlantis and Lemuria really existed and were not simply literary creations of Plato some twenty-four centuries ago. Revealed are disturbing parallels between those ancient civilizations and our own contemporary societies. The engaging and compelling text is enhanced with a photo section of fascinating areas currently under scientific investigation for sings of these lost cultures and peoples. Edgar Cayce's Atlantis And Lemuria is highly recommended reading for students of archaeology, antiquity, and the metaphysical prophecies and visions of the late Edgar Cayce.
