Oft dream I of buried Atlantis,
|
2 |
+
lost in the ages that have passed into night.
|
3 |
+
Aeon on aeon thou existed in beauty,
|
4 |
+
a light shining through the darkness of night.
|
5 |
+
|
6 |
+
Mighty in power, ruling the earth-born,
|
7 |
+
Lord of the Earth in Atlantis' day.
|
8 |
+
|
9 |
+
King of the nations, master of wisdom,
|
10 |
+
LIGHT through SUNTAL,
|
11 |
+
Keeper of the way,
|
12 |
+
dwelt in his TEMPLE,
|
13 |
+
the MASTER of UNAL,
|
14 |
+
LIGHT of the Earth in Atlantis' day.
|
15 |
+
|
16 |
+
Master, HE, from a cycle beyond us,
|
17 |
+
living in bodies as one among men.
|
18 |
+
|
19 |
+
Not as the earth-born,
|
20 |
+
HE from beyond us,
|
21 |
+
SUN of a cycle, advanced beyond men.
|
22 |
+
|
23 |
+
Know ye, O man, that HORLET the Master,
|
24 |
+
was never one with the children of men.
|
25 |
+
|
26 |
+
Far in the past time when Atlantis first grew as a power,
|
27 |
+
appeared there one with the KEY of WISDOM,
|
28 |
+
showing the way of LIGHT to all.
|
29 |
+
|
30 |
+
Showed he to all men the path of attainment,
|
31 |
+
way of the Light that flows among men.
|
32 |
+
Mastering darkness, leading the MAN-SOUL,
|
33 |
+
upward to heights that were One with the Light.
|
34 |
+
|
35 |
+
Divided the Kingdoms, HE into sections.
|
36 |
+
|
37 |
+
Ten were they, ruled by children of men.
|
38 |
+
|
39 |
+
Upon another, built HE a TEMPLE,
|
40 |
+
built but not by the children of men.
|
41 |
+
|
42 |
+
Out of the ETHER called HE its substance,
|
43 |
+
moulded and formed by the power of YTOLAN
|
44 |
+
into the forms HE built with His mind.
|
45 |
+
|
46 |
+
Mile upon mile it covered the island,
|
47 |
+
space upon space it grew in its might.
|
48 |
+
|
49 |
+
Black, yet not black, but dark like the space-time,
|
50 |
+
deep in its heart the ESSENCE of LIGHT.
|
51 |
+
|
52 |
+
Swiftly the TEMPLE grew into being,
|
53 |
+
moulded and shaped by the WORD of the DWELLER,
|
54 |
+
called from the formless into a form.
|
55 |
+
|
56 |
+
Builded HE then, within it, great chambers,
|
57 |
+
filled them with forms called forth from the ETHER,
|
58 |
+
filled them with wisdom called forth by His mind.
|
59 |
+
|
60 |
+
Formless was HE within his TEMPLE,
|
61 |
+
yet was HE formed in the image of men.
|
62 |
+
|
63 |
+
Dwelling among them yet not of them,
|
64 |
+
strange and far different
|
65 |
+
was HE from the children of men.
|
66 |
+
|
67 |
+
Chose HE then from among the people,
|
68 |
+
THREE who became his gateway.
|
69 |
+
|
70 |
+
Choose HE the THREE from the Highest
|
71 |
+
to become his links with Atlantis.
|
72 |
+
|
73 |
+
Messengers they, who carried his council,
|
74 |
+
to the kings of the children of men.
|
75 |
+
|
76 |
+
Brought HE forth others and taught them wisdom;
|
77 |
+
teachers, they, to the children of men.
|
78 |
+
Placed HE them on the island of UNDAL to stand as
|
79 |
+
teachers of LIGHT to men.
|
80 |
+
|
81 |
+
Each of those who were thus chosen,
|
82 |
+
taught must he be for years five and ten.
|
83 |
+
|
84 |
+
Only thus could he have understanding to bring
|
85 |
+
LIGHT to the children of men.
|
86 |
+
|
87 |
+
Thus there came into being the Temple, a dwelling place
|
88 |
+
for the Master of men.
|
89 |
+
|
90 |
+
I, THOTH, have ever sought wisdom,
|
91 |
+
searching in darkness and searching in Light.
|
92 |
+
|
93 |
+
Long in my youth I traveled the pathway,
|
94 |
+
seeking ever new knowledge to gain.
|
95 |
+
|
96 |
+
Until after much striving, one of the THREE,
|
97 |
+
to me brought the LIGHT.
|
98 |
+
|
99 |
+
Brought HE to me the commands of the DWELLER,
|
100 |
+
called me from the darkness into the LIGHT.
|
101 |
+
Brought HE me, before the DWELLER,
|
102 |
+
deep in the Temple before the great FIRE.
|
103 |
+
|
104 |
+
There on the great throne, beheld I,
|
105 |
+
the DWELLER, clothed with the LIGHT
|
106 |
+
and flashing with fire.
|
107 |
+
Down I knelt before that great wisdom,
|
108 |
+
feeling the LIGHT flowing through me in waves.
|
109 |
+
|
110 |
+
Heard I then the voice of the DWELLER:
|
111 |
+
"O darkness, come into the Light.
|
112 |
+
|
113 |
+
Long have ye sought the pathway to LIGHT.
|
114 |
+
|
115 |
+
Each soul on earth that loosens its fetters,
|
116 |
+
shall soon be made free from the bondage of night.
|
117 |
+
|
118 |
+
Forth from the darkness have ye arisen,
|
119 |
+
closer approached the Light of your goal.
|
120 |
+
|
121 |
+
Here ye shall dwell as one of my children,
|
122 |
+
keeper of records gathered by wisdom,
|
123 |
+
instrument thou of the LIGHT from beyond.
|
124 |
+
|
125 |
+
Ready by thou made to do what is needed,
|
126 |
+
preserver of wisdom through the ages of darkness,
|
127 |
+
that shall come fast on the children of men.
|
128 |
+
|
129 |
+
Live thee here and drink of all wisdom.
|
130 |
+
|
131 |
+
Secrets and mysteries unto thee shall unveil."
|
132 |
+
|
133 |
+
Then answered I, the MASTER OF CYCLES, saying:
|
134 |
+
"O Light, that descended to men,
|
135 |
+
give thou to me of thy wisdom that
|
136 |
+
I might be a teacher of men.
|
137 |
+
Give thou of thy LIGHT that I may be free."
|
138 |
+
|
139 |
+
Spoke then to me again, the MASTER:
|
140 |
+
"Age after age shall ye live through
|
141 |
+
your wisdom, Aye, when o'er Atlantis the ocean waves roll, holding the Light, though hidden in darkness, ready to come when e'er thou shalt call.
|
142 |
+
|
143 |
+
Go thee now and learn greater wisdom. Grow thou through LIGHT to Infinity's ALL."
|
144 |
+
|
145 |
+
Long then dwelt I in the Temple of the DWELLER until at last I was One with the LIGHT.
|
146 |
+
|
147 |
+
Followed I then the path to the star planes, followed I then the pathway to LIGHT.
|
148 |
+
|
149 |
+
Deep into Earth's heart I followed the pathway, learning the secrets, below as above; learning the pathway to the HALLS of AMENTI; learning the LAW that balances the world.
|
150 |
+
|
151 |
+
To Earth's hidden chambers pierced I by my wisdom, deep through the Earth's crust, into the pathway, hidden for ages from the children of men.
|
152 |
+
|
153 |
+
Unveiled before me, ever more wisdom until I reached a new knowledge: found that all is part of an ALL, great and yet greater than all that we know.
|
154 |
+
|
155 |
+
Searched I Infinity's heart through all the ages.
|
156 |
+
|
157 |
+
Deep and yet deeper, more mysteries I found.
|
158 |
+
|
159 |
+
Now, as I look back through the ages, know I that wisdom is boundless, ever grown greater throughout the ages, One with Infinity's greater than all.
|
160 |
+
|
161 |
+
Light there was in ancient ATLANTIS.
|
162 |
+
Yet, darkness, too, was hidden in all.
|
163 |
+
|
164 |
+
Fell from the Light into the darkness,
|
165 |
+
some who had risen to heights among men.
|
166 |
+
|
167 |
+
Proud they became because of their knowledge,
|
168 |
+
proud were they of their place among men.
|
169 |
+
Deep delved they into the forbidden,
|
170 |
+
opened the gateway that led to below.
|
171 |
+
|
172 |
+
Sought they to gain ever more knowledge but
|
173 |
+
seeking to bring it up from below.
|
174 |
+
|
175 |
+
He who descends below must have balance,
|
176 |
+
else he is bound by lack of our Light.
|
177 |
+
|
178 |
+
Opened, they then,
|
179 |
+
by their knowledge,
|
180 |
+
pathways forbidden to man.
|
181 |
+
|
182 |
+
But, in His Temple, all-seeing, the DWELLER,
|
183 |
+
lay in his AGWANTI, while through Atlantis,
|
184 |
+
His soul roamed free.
|
185 |
+
|
186 |
+
Saw HE the Atlanteans, by their magic,
|
187 |
+
opening the gateway that would
|
188 |
+
bring to Earth a great woe.
|
189 |
+
|
190 |
+
Fast fled His soul then, back to His body.
|
191 |
+
Up HE arose from His AGWANTI.
|
192 |
+
Called HE the Three mighty messengers.
|
193 |
+
Gave the commands that shattered the world.
|
194 |
+
Deep 'neath Earth's crust to the HALLS of AMENTI,
|
195 |
+
swiftly descended the DWELLER.
|
196 |
+
Called HE then on the powers the Seven Lords wielded;
|
197 |
+
changed the Earth's balance.
|
198 |
+
|
199 |
+
Down sank Atlantis beneath the dark waves.
|
200 |
+
Shattered the gateway that had been opened;
|
201 |
+
shattered the doorway that led down below.
|
202 |
+
All of the islands were shattered except UNAL,
|
203 |
+
and part of the island of the sons of the DWELLER.
|
204 |
+
|
205 |
+
Preserved HE them to be the teachers,
|
206 |
+
Lights on the path for those to come after,
|
207 |
+
Lights for the lesser children of men.
|
208 |
+
|
209 |
+
Called HE then, I THOTH, before him,
|
210 |
+
gave me commands for all I should do, saying;
|
211 |
+
"Take thou, O THOTH, all of your wisdom.
|
212 |
+
|
213 |
+
Take all your records, Take all your magic.
|
214 |
+
Go thou forth as a teacher of men.
|
215 |
+
Go thou forth reserving the records
|
216 |
+
until in time LIGHT grows among men.
|
217 |
+
LIGHT shalt thou be all through the ages,
|
218 |
+
hidden yet found by enlightened men.
|
219 |
+
Over all Earth, give WE ye power,
|
220 |
+
free thou to give or take it away.
|
221 |
+
|
222 |
+
Gather thou now the sons of Atlantis.
|
223 |
+
Take them and flee to the people of the rock caves.
|
224 |
+
Fly to the land of the Children of KHEM."
|
225 |
+
Then gathered I the sons of Atlantis.
|
226 |
+
Into the spaceship I brought all my records,
|
227 |
+
brought the records of sunken Atlantis.
|
228 |
+
Gathered I all of my powers,
|
229 |
+
instruments many of mighty magic.
|
230 |
+
|
231 |
+
Up then we rose on wings of the morning.
|
232 |
+
High we arose above the Temple,
|
233 |
+
leaving behind the Three and DWELLER,
|
234 |
+
deep in the HALLS 'neath the Temple,
|
235 |
+
closing the pathway to the LORDS of the Cycles.
|
236 |
+
|
237 |
+
Yet ever to him who has knowing,
|
238 |
+
open shall be the path to AMENTI.
|
239 |
+
Fast fled we then on the wings of the morning,
|
240 |
+
fled to the land of the children of KHEM.
|
241 |
+
There by my power,
|
242 |
+
I conquered and ruled them.
|
243 |
+
|
244 |
+
Raised I to LIGHT,
|
245 |
+
the children of KHEM.
|
246 |
+
Deep 'neath the rocks,
|
247 |
+
I buried my spaceship,
|
248 |
+
waiting the time when man might be free.
|
249 |
+
|
250 |
+
Over the spaceship,
|
251 |
+
erected a marker in the form
|
252 |
+
of a lion yet like unto man.
|
253 |
+
There 'neath the image rests yet my spaceship,
|
254 |
+
forth to be brought when need shall arise.
|
255 |
+
|
256 |
+
Know ye, O man, that far in the future,
|
257 |
+
invaders shall come from out of the deep.
|
258 |
+
Then awake, ye who have wisdom.
|
259 |
+
Bring forth my ship and conquer with ease.
|
260 |
+
Deep 'neath the image lies my secret.
|
261 |
+
Search and find in the pyramid I built.
|
262 |
+
|
263 |
+
Each to the other is the Keystone;
|
264 |
+
each the gateway that leads into LIFE.
|
265 |
+
Follow the KEY I leave behind me.
|
266 |
+
Seek and the doorway to LIFE shall be thine.
|
267 |
+
Seek thou in my pyramid,
|
268 |
+
deep in the passage that ends in a wall.
|
269 |
+
|
270 |
+
Use thou the KEY of the SEVEN,
|
271 |
+
and open to thee the pathway will fall.
|
272 |
+
Now unto thee I have given my wisdom.
|
273 |
+
Now unto thee I have given my way.
|
274 |
+
|
275 |
+
Follow the pathway.
|
276 |
+
Solve thou my secrets.
|
277 |
+
Unto thee I have shown the way.
|
