लेमुरिया
म्यू, या लेमुरिया, प्रशांत महासागर का एक खोया हुआ महाद्वीप था, जो पुरातत्ववेत्ता और द लॉस्ट कॉन्टिनेंट ऑफ म्यू के लेखक जेम्स चर्चवर्ड के अनुसार हवाई के उत्तर से लेकर ईस्टर द्वीप और फिजी के दक्षिण में तीन हज़ार मील तक फैला हुआ था। भूमि के तीन भागों से बना यह महाद्वीप पूर्व से पश्चिम तक करीब पांच हजार मील में फैला था।
चर्चवर्ड द्वारा लिखा गया प्राचीन मातृभूमि का इतिहास उन पवित्र पट्टिकाओं पर अंकित अभिलेखों पर आधारित है जो उन्हें भारत से मिले थे। भारत के एक मंदिर के पुजारी ने उन्हें इन अभिलेखों का अर्थ समझाया। पचास वर्षों के अपने शोध के दौरान उन्होंने दक्षिण-पूर्व एशिया, युकाटन, मध्य-अमेरिका, प्रशांत द्वीप समूह, मैक्सिको, उत्तरी अमेरिका, प्राचीन मिस्र और अन्य सभ्यताओं में पाए गए लेखों, शिलालेखों और किंवदंतियों का अध्ययन किया तथा इस ज्ञान की पुष्टि की। उनके अनुसार म्यू लगभग बारह हजार साल पहले तब नष्ट हो गया जब इस महाद्वीप को बनाए रखने वाले वायु के कक्ष नष्ट हो गए।
माँ के संस्कार
मातृभूमि को सर्वोत्तम मानने और उसकी आराधना करने की पद्यति - जो बीसवीं सदी में अपने चरम पर थी - लेमुरिया सभ्यता की नीवं थी। पृथ्वी पर जीवन का विकास इस ग्रह पर आत्मा के भौतिक रूप में आने का प्रतीक है। यहां पर शुरुआती रूट रेस ने एक नहीं बल्कि कई सत युगों के दौरान अपनी दिव्य योजना को पूरा किया; यहीं पर मनुष्य के पतन से पहले मानवता अपनी चर्म सीमा पर थी; यहीं पर पौरुष की किरण (आत्मा) के नीचे आते हुए सर्पिल रूप को स्त्रीवाची किरण (पदार्थ) के ऊपर उठने वाले सर्पिल के मिलन के माध्यम से भौतिक दुनिया में महसूस किया गया था।
म्यू के मुख्य मंदिर में दिव्य माँ की लौ को दिव्य पिता की लौ (जो सूर्य की सुनहरी नगरी में केंद्रित है) के जोड़ीदार के रूप में स्थापित किया गया था। शहर के पुजारियों और पुजारिनों ने पवित्र शब्दों और मन्त्रों द्वारा ईश्वर का आह्वान करने के प्राचीन अनुष्ठानों द्वारा इस ग्रह पर ब्रह्मांडीय शक्तियों का संतुलन बनाये रखा। म्यू की दूर-दराज की कई बस्तियों में इस तरह की पवित्र चेतना के कई मंदिर स्थापित किये गए। इन मंदिरो की वजह से पृथ्वी और सूर्य के बीच प्रकाश का वृत्तखण्ड बन गया जो पृथ्वी और सूर्य की लौ से बंधा था। यह वृत्तखंड ईश्वर की विशुद्ध ऊर्जा को पृथ्वी पर पहुंचाने का कार्य करता है जिससे वस्तुएं भौतिक रूप ग्रहण करती हैं।
म्यू पर सदियों से चली आ रही अनवरत संस्कृति के दौरान विज्ञान में अत्यधिक प्रगति हुई जिसे दिव्य माँ की सार्वभौमिक एकता के माध्यम से सामने लाया गया। माँ की यही चेतना पृथ्वी पर सभी प्रकार की अभिव्यक्तियों को सफल बनाती है। ईश्वर के प्रति समर्पित लोगों की उपलब्धियाँ इस बात को दर्शाती हैं कि जिस सभ्यता में माँ का सम्मान और आराधना की जाती है, और उनके सम्मान में मंदिर बनाये जाते हैं वह सभ्यता आसमान की ऊंचाइयों को छू सकती है। इससे यह बात भी स्पष्ट होती है कि मनुष्य रसातल में तब गिरता है जब वह माँ के दिखाए रास्ते से दूर होता है और अपने बीज परमाणु में केंद्रित मूलाधार चक्र की ऊर्जा का दुरुपयोग करता है - जो भौतिक शरीर में मातृ ज्योति के प्रकाश का स्थान है।
लेमुरिया पर मनुष्य का पतन
म्यू का पतन मनुष्य के पतन की वजह से हुआ था, और मनुष्य के पतन का कारण उसका ब्रह्मांडीय माँ के मंदिरों का अपमान करना था। यह अचानक नहीं हुआ था बल्कि धीरे धीरे मनुष्य का अपनी अंतरात्मा से दूर होने के कारण हुआ था जिसकी वजह से वह अपने सिद्धांतों से दूर हो गया और उसने अपनी दूरंदेशी भी खो दी। महत्वाकांक्षा और आत्म-प्रेम में अंधे होकर पुजारियों और पुजारिनें ने ईश्वर का ध्यान छोड़ दिया, उन्होंने अपनी प्रतिज्ञाएं तोड़ दीं और उन सभी पवित्र अनुष्ठानों का अभ्यास भी छोड़ दिया जो वे सदियों से कर रहे थे - पर ऐसे कठिन समय में भी देवदूत परमपिता ईश्वर की अतृप्त लौ पर अपनी निगरानी बनाये हुए थे।
The worship of the Moon Mother, the Great Whore mentioned in the Book of Revelation,[1] replaced the worship of the Sun Mother, the Woman whom John saw “clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars.”[2] A black crystal set in lead and stone became the focus for the perversion of the Mother ray and the symbol of the new religion. One by one the inner circles of the temple orders were violated through the diabolical practice of black magic and phallic worship taught by the Luciferians, until a completely false theology wiped out the pristine patterns of the Mother Cult.
Life on the continent of Mu was further corrupted by aliens and fallen angels with their grotesque genetic miscreations, mocking the Godhead and violating the sacred science of the Mother by engaging men in wars of the gods.
The sinking of Lemuria
By and by the early rumblings of cataclysm were heard by the inhabitants of Mu. The altars of the most remote colonies were the first to topple. When the last strongholds—the twelve temples surrounding the main temple—were taken over by the Satanists, the momentum of light invoked by the remnant of the faithful was not great enough to hold the balance for the continent.
Thus Mu finally sank by the sheer weight of Darkness that her children had invoked—and which, because their deeds were evil, they had come to love more than the Light. She went down in a horrendous mass of volcanic fire and exploding lava, and the flame focuses that had sustained a mighty people and a mighty civilization were no more. What had taken hundreds of thousands of years to build up was torn down in a cosmic interval—the achievements of an entire civilization lost in oblivion, the spiritual-material evolution of man stripped from his outer memory!
The loss of the Mother flame
Devastating though that cataclysm was for millions of souls, of far greater consequence was the destruction of the focus of the Mother flame that had blazed on the altar of the main temple—a life-giving fire, the insignia of each man’s Divinity made manifest as Above, so below. Alas, the torch that had been passed was let fall to the ground. The strategies of the fallen ones, who had worked night and day with a fanatical zeal, were successful in accomplishing their end: the Mother flame was extinguished on the physical plane.
For a time it looked as though the Darkness had completely enveloped the Light. Beholding the defection of the race, cosmic councils voted to dissolve the planet whose people had forsaken their God; and this would have been its fate had Sanat Kumara not interceded, offering to exile himself from Hesperus (Venus) in order to keep the flame on behalf of mankind and hold the balance of the Light for Terra until such time as mankind should return to the pure and undefiled religion[3] of their ancient forebears.
Although the physical focus of the Mother flame was lost when Mu went down, the feminine ray has been enshrined on the etheric plane by the God and Goddess Meru in their temple at Lake Titicaca.
Paradise lost
The souls who perished with the Motherland reembodied upon a naked earth. Their paradise lost, they roamed the sands whose atoms were etched with the edict of the LORD God “Cursed is the ground for thy sake....”[4] Having no recall of their former estate and no tie thereto—for they lacked the Flame—they reverted to a primitive existence. Through disobedience to the laws of God, they forfeited their self-mastery, their right to dominion, and their knowledge of the I AM Presence. Their threefold flame was reduced to a mere flicker and the lights in their body temples went out.[5]
Man, no longer found in the image of the Christ, became one of the species (Homo sapiens), an animal among other animals, his God-potential sealed for a thousand days of cosmic history. Thus began the tortuous trek of evolution that has brought civilization to its present level and which is intended to culminate in a golden age of Christ-mastery and full God-realization.
The Mother flame rising again
In 1971 devotees of the sacred fire serving in an outer retreat of the Great White Brotherhood magnetized the Mother flame of Mu to the physical octave, thereby anchoring the lodestone for the Aquarian-age culture being initiated in the final decades of the twentieth century. Once again, the torch has been passed; and this time, by God’s grace and man’s effort, it shall not go down!
Just as the worship of God as Father has dominated religious thought for many centuries, so in the next cycle the appreciation of God as both Father and Mother will provide the theme of an Ascended Master philosophy and way of life. This promises to be an era of perfecting the precipitation of Spirit in and as Matter as man takes dominion over the four elements—fire, air, water and earth—which represent the four planes of God’s androgynous consciousness whose cycles he must master prior to his reunion with the God Self. Through the worship of the Motherhood of God and the elevation in society of the functions of the Feminine aspect of the Deity, science and religion will reach their apex and man will discover the Spirit of God as the flame enshrined upon the altar of his own being even as he discovers the Matter of God in the cradle of nature. Moreover, through the enlightenment of the Divine Theosophia he will accept his role as the living Christ—the seed of the Divine Woman.
Transmutation of the records of the fall
In a dictation delivered in San Diego, California, the ascended master Ra Mu has called for the students of the masters to give calls for the clearing of the records of the fall of Lemuria:
Out of the depths of the sea I am come, Ra Mu. I descend upon this place for the clearing of the records of Lemuria. This cleansing of the records beneath the Pacific is necessary in this hour for the balance of the coasts and of the planetary systems as well.
We, then, are grateful to gather with you, souls of light, souls of Lemuria. Our mission in this hour is to call you to the heart of the living flame—the violet flame of the Holy Spirit and of Saint Germain. We call to you, beloved, to give dynamic decrees that the violet light might descend into the very depths of the seas, clearing the records of the continent, clearing those records beneath the seas—and above the seas before the sinking of Lemuria.
Many of you who have gathered here on this coast were present in times of Lemuria. You knew its history, you knew its mountains. You saw the warfare of the gods also.[6] You saw the sinking of Lemuria. Thus you are yet on Lemurian soil and thus you have come back to the place for resolution. The resolution is the resolution of divine love, and truly it must take place 360 degrees of the clock....
Sons and daughters of Lemuria and of planet Earth, I speak to you, then. I advocate that you move with great acceleration to give your violet-flame decrees for world transmutation. Every violet-flame decree that you give contributes to the stabilization not only of this coast but of the entire globe. If you could see the future, beloved ones, you would not hesitate to give many hours a day decreeing for the violet flame to consume records that have befallen those who lived on Lemuria, those who were under the high priests and those who were the murderers of priests and priestesses in that era....
In this hour we ask you to call and give violet-flame decrees for the transmutation of the records of the murder of the Divine Mother on Lemuria.[7] This record is a deep record and it must be cleansed ere you will see women truly rise to their full stature in the fullness of their Christhood and their femininity. Thus the records of Lemuria are holding back levels upon levels of souls who cannot move on because the records of Lemuria have not been transmuted.
Thus the Pacific rim is now the place where the violet flame must be injected, where the violet flame must go to the very depths of the sea and remove these records. When these records are removed, beloved, there will be a transformation in society as great priestesses of old come to the fore again, take embodiment and move with others who are of the feminine ray to bring in the balance of the masculine and feminine and to drive back those fallen angels who have moved against Woman and her seed through these long, long, long centuries of departure.[8]
