The Story of Atlantis

In Babylon and Egypt the candidates for initiation into the Mysteries were first baptized.

It must be remembered that humanity was still for the most part possessed of psychic attributes, and by this time the most advanced had undergone the necessary training in the occult schools, and had attained various stages of initiation—some even reaching to Adeptship.

Then it was that the first great body of colonists was brought from Atlantis, and some time during the ten thousand years that led up to the second catastrophe, the two great Pyramids of Gizeh were built, partly to provide permanent Halls of Initiation, but also to act as treasure-house and shrine for some great talisman of power during the submergence which the Initiates knew to be impending. Map No.

From the small minority who aspired to initiation, and had touch with the higher spiritual life—who knew that good will towards all men, control of thought, and purity of life and action were the necessary preliminaries to the attainment of the highest states of consciousness and the widest realms of vision—innumerable phases led down through the more or less blind worship of cosmic powers, or of anthropomorphic gods, to the degraded but most widely extended ritual in which each man adored his own image, and to the blood-stained rites of the elemental worship.

Initiation

Initiation is derived from Latin words meaning "to go inside" or "to begin." It fundamentally represents the act of starting a new journey or entering into a new phase of understanding or knowledge.

In education, initiation refers to the beginning of learning something new, like "initiation into mathematics" or any other subject.

Historically, initiation has been significant in various esoteric and mystical traditions.

This concept of initiation was particularly important in hermetic traditions, where it symbolized the transmission of secret wisdom and practices.

Cultural shifts, such as the transition to monotheism in Europe, affected initiation practices.

Secret societies and groups, like the Freemasons and the Illuminati, used initiation to educate their members and bind them to the group through shared rituals and secrets.

In contemporary times, initiation can also symbolize personal growth and learning.

Matias discusses how everyday actions and learning can be seen as forms of initiation, emphasizing the active and willing participation in new experiences as a form of personal evolution.

The discussion also connects initiation to spiritual experiences, where it is seen as a journey to deeper understanding or enlightenment.

This ties back to ancient practices where initiation was part of a path to understanding the divine or the universe.

The Freemasons are noted for having a structured series of initiations, each represented by a degree.

Matias compares the Christian ritual of Communion, where bread and wine are consumed as symbols of Christ's body and blood, to a Masonic initiation ritual that involves drinking wine from a skull.

Making a 40-day fast in the wilderness was a common initiation requirement of the Egyptian priestly schools.

Baptism is a Christian sacrament of initiation and purification that involves the symbolic use of water as a sign of spiritual cleansing.

The mention of Atlantis contributes to the idea that there was a widespread initiation practice in ancient times, where knowledge was passed through structured paths, often involving tests and ceremonies.

Jesus’ Initiation

Methods of Initiation and Evolution of Consciousness: Different methods of initiation used in post-Atlantean mysteries are detailed, including how they evolved up to Christian times.

This includes a comparison between pre-Christian and Christian initiation rites, particularly the baptism by John as a transformative spiritual experience.

The concept of Jesus' initiation refers to various events and teachings in Christian theology that are considered central to understanding Jesus' mission and his role as the Messiah in Christian belief.

This event is seen as an initiation into his public ministry and a confirmation of his identity as the Son of God.

The Last Supper: The initiation of the Eucharist, or Holy Communion, took place during the Last Supper with his disciples.

Crucifixion and Resurrection: The culmination of Jesus' initiation of humanity into a new covenant with God is seen in his crucifixion and subsequent resurrection.

Atlantis: The Last Days

If you look at the remnants of the labyrinth in the Temple of Knossos on the island of Crete, you will see that it was actually an initiation labyrinth from the Atlantean culture.

In the sense of a particular ritual that will allow you at the end to allow your mind to open up to new understandings, new information, and new initiations of the cosmos, this came from ancient Atlantean times.
