Atlantis did not so much disappear beneath the waves as be covered with ice as a result of the catastrophe, and mysteriously this period coincided with the spread of agriculture in key temperate zones above 1,500 metres. The sea level had risen, and the survivors had to find safe places to begin anew. The afterword, by Egyptologist John Anthony West, also supports the relevance of Hapgood's theory. numbers and geometry—the circles, squares and triangles which produce a matrix of space-time-being, animated by spirals of life force. She considers planes of being and how we come into existence, informed as she is by classical metaphors about consciousness as well as discoveries of multiple space-time dimensions. She describes sound, music, ligh and colour as vehicles for geometry to operate as a template for creation. Finally, Karen French explores concepts such as the holographic universe, revealing ancient spiritual expressions as portrayed in mandalas and yantras which show our link with the elemental world and affirm our place and value within the eternal cycle of Being. An illuminating book indeed. The HIDDEN GEOMETRY of LIFE KAREN (FRENCH ATLANTIS BENEATH THE ICE by Rand and Rose Flem-Ath Bear & Company, VT, USA, 2012 ISBN 978-1-59143-137-4 (245pp tpb) Avail: BearandCompanyBooks.com Lees Rand and Rose Flem-Ath sparked controversy in 1995 with their book When The Sky Fell, in which they proposed that the lost continent of Atlantis was in fact Antarctica (see review in 3/01). They have now completely revised and expanded their book with additional coverage of Charles Hapgood's theory of Earth crust displacement, informed by their own correspondence with Hapgood up until his death in 1982. They include unearthed correspondence between Hapgood and US President Eisenhower on the search for a copy of an ancient world map used by Columbus that was supposedly drafted c. 3800 BCE, coinciding with he rise of the Egyptian civilisation. The Flem-Aths have added to their argument with evidence for a rare genetic disease afflicting the Haida of British Columbia, the Yaghan of ierra del Fuego and the Hyksos pharaohs of ancient Egypt, suggesting that they originated from a common ancestor that escaped from Atlantis during a violent catastrophe around 11,600 years ago which resulted in mass extinctions— THE HIDDEN GEOMETRY OF LIFE by Karen L.

French first tackles how our reality is shaped by the language of A PEACEFUL WORLD AWAITS YOU BEYOND ALL RELIGION Most all religions are based upon a bedrock of lies. Christianity was invented by Emperor Constantine, for political purposes, based upon the myth of Mithra, a Persian savior god born on December 25, son of a virgin. Mithra performed miracles and was later crucified. Moses is based on the Sumerian life and legends of Sargon |, King of Akkad, “set in a basket of rushes and “cast into the river’. Egyptians kept exhaustive hieroglyphic records. There is a complete absence of any record of Moses leading over 600,000 men, women and children away from Pharaoh's army. Joseph Smith, founder of Mormonism, was convicted in a court of Law of being an “impostor”, today a fraud, conman, in 1826. He wrote the Book of Mormon soon after.
