When the Lemurians realized that their land was destined to perish, they petitioned Shamballa-the-Lesser, the head of the Agartha Network, for permission to build a city beneath Mount Shasta in order to preserve their culture and their records.
Shamballa-the-Lesser is inhabited by the Hyperborean civilization which left the surface of this planet well over 40,000 years ago.
Shamballa, a sacred city in the Gobi Desert, is believed to be the spiritual headquarters of the Great White Brotherhood, a group of enlightened beings who guide humanity.
The city of Shamballa symbolizes the highest spiritual consciousness and the ultimate goal of the soul's pilgrimage.
The journey to Shamballa is depicted as a spiritual quest where the aspirant must pass through various trials, purifying the lower aspects of their being until they reach the heights of divine understanding.
The Manu had some children sent to Shamballa, among them Uranus and Neptune, Surya, Saturn, Vulcan and Venus.
A second invasion again left only a few children, raised in Shamballa.
