Lemurian Scrolls: Angelic Prophecies Revealing Human Origins

by Subramuniya, Sivaya Subramuniyaswami

The Lemurian Shastras, which make up the first half of these scrolls, unfold a remarkable story of how souls journeyed to Earth in their subtle bodies some four million years ago. The narrators of the ancient texts explain that civilization on their native planets had reached a point of such peacefulness that spiritual evolution had come to a standstill. They needed a "fire planet," such as Earth, to continue their unfoldment into the ultimate attainment--realization of the Self within. To persist in the lush atmosphere, genderless, organic bodies were formed through food-offering ceremonies. Later, through a slow process of mutation, the fleshy bodies we know today as human were established as vehicles for reincarnation. As the book progresses, a diminishing of the spiritual forces radiating from the Central Sun of the galaxy is described. As spiritual awareness wanes, the life force of man, kundalini, sleeps and instinctive desire manifests in abundance. These amazing chronicles of early man's life on Earth are told from within great, walled monasteries where narrators look back and forward at the same time, often reading from ancient texts, describing the daily life of those within and outside these sacred citadels. The theme throughout is to continue channeling the pristine spiritual vibration from the Central Sun as long as possible and to preserve the Lemurian culture, its wisdom and knowledge for generations far into the future. This, under the guidance of powerful gurus working closely with great Gods, was the spiritual mission of the dedicated monastics of these eras. Largely it was done by implanting sacred writings in the akasha by mystical means. The Dravidian Shastras, which make up the second half of Lemurian Scrolls, will interest you from the point of view of how humans lived at the end of the Dvapara Yuga, their society, internal and external government, the culture of those early years on the Earth and how some of it carried forth to this very day. Our narrators explain that it was in the far distant past that the people who formed societies realized they needed group spiritual guidance. This group guidance is, to this day, recognized as a viable form of community and leadership. Examples that come to mind are the Dalai Lama's Tibet, where something like one-third of the social order is a monastic group, serving the religious and political needs of the two-thirds family group. Thus their society was transparently stable for hundreds and hundreds of years. This and other societies, such as villages in Europe, where monks and nuns were valued, were settled with a certain percent of monastics who served the religious needs of the other residents. The division of lay community and monastic community results in a wealthy, highly productive, harmonious society. We learn in the Dravidian Shastras just how this was accomplished in the long, long ago. It is prophesied that sustainable societies will once again emerge when mankind returns to the wise protocols of these earlier times, where spiritual men and women, spiritual principles and spiritual sharing guided both individual and society, where religious leaders were valued and sought after, for the populace knew that if they could be engaged in the social effort, they would lend it a light and wisdom that would not otherwise be available or important. These last sixteen chapters of Lemurian Scrolls explain the procedures of management, their gurus and their protocol. We can see its wisdom really worked, and our monastic order endeavored to emulate it as much as was possible in this modern, diverse age where divisions are normally accepted as signs of an advancing civilization and religion is considered an interference with scientific points of view. Migrating to this planet in their subtle bodies, many of our forebearers traveled through the Sun. The beginnings of mankind's mission on this planet came in a far-away time, when the atmosphere was dense with waters and gases. Flowers and animals were larger and more exotic than today. At first, the transformation from etheric to physical form was difficult, but ceremonies evolved which, using the fragrances of fruits and flowers, brought devotionally to special pedestals, assisted in bringing through beings who absorbed these organic essences to materialize a denser, earthly, fibrous body. These beings loved the many jewels and golden ornaments that were crafted to bedeck and help support their flexible forms. Human life did not evolve from lesser earthly species. Yugas before mankind arrived on Earth, celestial beings in wingless spacecraft spread seeds from other planets. Souls arriving in the last Sat Yuga eventually formed monasteries in which experiments were conducted into the nature of life, designing forms it should take on this planet. Their flexible bodies were light and easily flew in the dense air. Occasionally, one would be devoured by an animal, thus capturing this soul in the inca...

The most holy and reverent chronicle of spirit evolution of Lemuria. If only each human being realized that your physical form was yearned for by the spirit form in the universe, then you would cherish each living moment on planet Terra, earth. Realize from whence we came, hence we will return; that is, back to spirit form.
Great gratitude to the universe, for having to sit in meditative form with Subramuniya, upon pilgrimage and opening blessings to the 353-acre sanctuary, home of Iraivan Siva temple.

Essential study for old souls

[bad · Rating 5 out of 5]

this book presents a good view of hindu cosmology from the perspective of shaiva siddhanta (an ancient monotheistic shaivite tradition following philosophical tenents of advaita vedanta). presented is an alternative account of mankind's origination on earth, a description of practices and characteristics of lemurian, dravidian, and shaivite monastics throughout the last sat, treta, dvapara, and kali yugas, and prophesies concerning their development in future ages.

A mystical work capturing the Akashic reading of how lemurian monasteries lived and worked. Wonderful discussion of Yugas (time cycles) as told by Indian ancients and good parallels drawn with modern science.

[Kimberly Simon · Rating 5 out of 5]

A channeled explanation of the seeding of human life on our planet in terms of the yuga timeline. I suggest that the reader familiarizes themselves with the information in the back of the book first on the yugas or seasons of human development in terms of spirituality. A basic knowledge or at least interest in Hindu religion theory is helpful before reading. The book is meant to be read a chapter a day for 27 days. For the serious spiritual aspirant, its a model of divine living to aspire to in this or any lifetime. It's also a combination of creationism and evolution brought about by life on other planets. It is also a work of art literally through imagery. The images though out the book are stories onto themselves.

Personally, I borrowed this book to read and bought my own before my 27 days were up. It's a must have for any spiritual classic library and may inspire a trip to Hawaii to visit the current ashram that is a model of the ancient Lemurian way of life.

An insightful book that gave me a new perspective of humanity's history.

Richly illustrated and conveys certain mind bending views on the evolution of life on earth, including its possible extra terrestrial origins.
