James Churchward, though known as an occult writer, explored themes of lost continents and ancient, hidden civilizations. His work delves into the mysteries of the Pacific Ocean, positing the existence of a motherland of humanity. Churchward's writings are characterized by their speculative nature, drawing on ancient texts and his own travels to construct narratives of forgotten worlds. He sought to unveil hidden truths about human history and the origins of civilization.
In this 1933 work, occultist James Churchward explores the lost continent of Mu, believed to be the origin of all human civilization. He argues that various world religions share a common foundation rooted in Mu, supported by symbols from ancient tablets. This book appeals to students of comparative mythology and esoteric traditions.
In India, the author had the revelation of the lost continent of Mu (or Lemuria), the Atlantis of the Pacific Ocean. A great priest Rishi initiated the young officer into deciphering the sacred tablets stored in his temple. After 12 years of study and meditation, the author found evidence that these tablets told the story of humanity and constituted the ultimate traces of the first written language of man. After leaving India, he began searching for other concrete evidence of Mu's existence. From Tibet to Egypt, from New Zealand to Easter Island, he pursued his ancient quarry and discovered several texts engraved in the sacred language of Mu. However, it was the discoveries of archaeologist William Niven in Yucatan that would allow him to complete his work and reveal to the world the history of the vanished continent of Mu, the cradle of humanity.
Auf den Spuren von Wissen und Weisheit einer geheimnisvollen Kultur
Dans ses deux premiers ouvrages, le colonel James Chrchward révélait l'existence, à l'aube de l'humanité d'une Atlantide du Pacifique, Mu, le continent perdu, la mère patrie de l'humanité. Dans ce nouveau volume, l'auteur s'attache à prouver que toutes les religions ont une seule et même origine, les écrits secrets de Mu, à commencer par la religion osirienne, dont les précesptes se retrouvent dans les enseignements de Jésus. Ainsi, Osiris et Jesus ont puisé leur science dans le même ouvrage, surgi de la nuit des temps. Moïse condensa les 42 questions de la religion osirienne pour en faire les Dix Commandements. Enfin l'auteur fait toute la lumière sur les doctrines ésotériques de Lu et sur la science occulte de ses prêtres.
Kontinent Mu byl před 25 000 lety centrem lidské civilizace. Nacházel se v Tichém oceánu mezi Amerikou a Asií a byl zničen zemětřesením zhruba před 12 000 lety. Zbyly z něj pouze ostrovy jako Tahiti a Havaj. Autor po informacích o světadílu Mu pátral celý život v různých končinách světa, v Indii, na Sibiři i v jižních mořích a skládal obraz civilizace, jejíž vliv cítíme dodnes, třebaže se ztratila v šeru věků.
