–
Atlantis is the story of a future probability projected backward into an apparent past.
The ideas of Atlantis are partially composed of future memories. They are psychic yearnings toward the ideal civilization – patterns within the psyche, even as each fetus has within it the picture of its own most ideal fulfillment toward which it grows.
Atlantis is a land that you want to inhabit, appearing in your literature, your dreams, and your fantasies, serving as an impetus for development. It is real and valid. In your terms it is not „yet‘ physical fact, but in some ways it is more real than any physical fact, for it is a psychic blueprint.
It carries also, however, the imprint of your fears, for the tales say that Atlantis was destroyed. You place it in your past while it exists in your future. Not the destruction alone, but the entire pattern seen through the framework of your beliefs. Beside this, however, many civilizations have come and gone in somewhat the same manner, and the „myth” [of Atlantis] is based somewhat then on physical fact in your terms.
The species then moves into its own new houses. Atlantis is the story of a future probability projected backward into an apparent past.
Your planet as you know it is a certain kind of focus point for consciousness. At your level you think it is divided into areas of land and water-continents and oceans, islands and peninsulas, cities and woods-because that is all you perceive. Your consciousness is tuned in to frequencies of perception that give you that impression. A cat’s world, or an insect’s or a plant’s, are each far different, yet equally valid.
As simply as I can explain it, your planet is also „divided” into time and probability areas. Period. So many civilizations exist at once, then, and there are certain bleed-throughs. In your terms some civilizations are real and perceivable, and some are not.
Atlantis. First of all, take it for granted – as you do – that your ideas about the age of the earth are erroneous. There were intelligent human beings far earlier than is supposed; and because you assume a one-line kind of progression from an apelike creature to man, you ignore any evidence that shows to the contrary. There were highly developed human beings with elaborate civilizations, existing simultaneously with what you might call animal kingdoms – that is, more or less organized primeval animal tribes, possessing their own kinds of ‘primitive‘ cultures.
Those animal kingdoms, some of them, utilized tools. Their senses were extremely acute, and their ‘cultures‘ dealt with a kind of transmission of knowledge that made a highly complicated vocabulary unnecessary.
Those species did not vie for domination of the earth, but simply shared the same general environment with the more sophisticated groupings beyond their own perimeters. There were many highly technical human cultures, but in your terms not on a global scale. The legend of Atlantis is actually based upon several such civilizations. No particular civilization is the basis, however. Apart from that, the legend as picked up, so to speak, by Plato was a precognition of the future probability, an image of an inner civilization of the mind actually projected outward into the future, where it would be used as a blueprint – the lost grandeur, as, in other terms, Eden became the lost garden of paradise.
Ruburt has implied in his novel „The Education of Oversoul Seven“ that some archaeological discoveries about the past are not discovered in your present because they do not exist yet. Now such concepts are difficult to explain in my kind of prose, and in your language. But in certain terms, the ruins of Atlantis have not been found because they have not been placed in your past yet, from the future.
Now the future is probable. However, in your terms there are ruins of the civilizations that served as the ‘concrete‘ basis for the one Atlantean legend. Those civilizations were scattered. The so-called ruins would not be found in any one place as expected, therefore. There are some beneath the Aegean Sea, and some beneath an offshoot of the Atlantic, and some beneath the Arctic, for the world had a different shape.
In far greater terms time is simultaneous, so those civilizations exist along with your own. Your methods of dating the age of the earth are very misleading.
In your terms, from your present you ‘plant‘ images, tales, legends, ‘at any given time,‘ that seem to come from the past, but are actually like ghost images from the future, for you to follow or disregard as you choose.
Atlantis and the Garden of Eden are the same in that regard.
When you think that perhaps your species came from another planetary system, in time terms, then of course you are still dealing with old concepts. In your usual terms of thinking, the earth does not exist at all–not if you are considering it as a chunk of matter occupying a certain position in a physical cosmos. It is really futile to question whether the universe came from a big boom or is constantly expanding (though in those terms I have said it continually expands, as an idea or a dream does). I am not saying the universe does not exist–only that it does not exist in the way that it seems to you.
The truth of the matter is far more spectacular.
All That Is creates its reality as it goes along. Each world has its own impetus, yet all are ultimately connected. The true dimensions of a divine creativity would be unendurable for any one consciousness of whatever import, and so that splendor is infinitely dimensionalized (most intensely throughout), worlds spiraling outward with each ‘moment‘ of a cosmic breath; with the separation of worlds a necessity; and with individual and mass comprehension always growing at such a rate that All That Is multiplies itself at microseconds, building both pasts and futures and other time scales you do not recognize. Each is a reality in itself, with its own potentials, and with no individual consciousness, however minute, ever lost.
In that kind of framework, how can I explain an Atlantis? It exists both in your past and future, a probable world that some of you will choose from a model placed in the past of your future – partially based upon fact, in your terms, but with its greatest validity lying in its possibilities.”

一般而言，人們認為偉大的亞特蘭提斯文明（Atlantis)已經是過去式，將它視為沉入海底的遠古大陸。然而，在地球實相裡，它其實根本還沒有浮出，且會發生在未來──人類真正需要清楚知道的是，它未來會從海底浮現出來，還是從人類的心靈深處覺知後方才展現？
賽斯談到亞特蘭提斯時，最終的解釋是亞特蘭提斯屬於未來。以往人們認知裡，亞特蘭提斯屬於過去的說法，其實是一種投射，人類至今找到的遠古遺跡並不是亞特蘭提斯──事實上，它在歷史上真正的發生是在未來而不是過去，因為人們沒有「未來已經存在」的概念，所以集體人類在心靈當中感受到亞特蘭提斯文明，是同時性的時間投射到過去。
很多人以為，亞特蘭提斯文明在過去已經結束了，但其實它就是人類下一個文明的名稱，那是個精神與物質同等進化的偉大文明，而現在科學家、考古學家所找到的亞特蘭提斯文明遺跡，事實上是地球過去的三個小區域文明的扭曲，偉大的亞特蘭提斯文明一直存在於人類心靈的現在，它正是我們要走向的未來。
亞特蘭提斯文明，代表人類心靈高度成長、與大自然和平共存的境界。這個世界有過和平的時代，但從來沒有過真正平等的時代──每個人因著自己內在的神性與佛性，而感受到眾生是平等的。我想告訴大家，所有人類正在往這個偉大的時代前進，可是，在過程的混亂當中，許多人迷失了人生的方向。因此，整個新時代的思維，所要導向的是一個偉大的亞特蘭提斯文明，在那裡，人類開始體會到一切萬有的愛，重新回到宇宙創造與慈悲的懷抱，真正看到周遭的人，都是我們靈性上的兄弟姊妹，全世界的兩性、家庭、婚姻、親子、生死問題解決了，種族歧視消弭，不再有已開發與未開發國家的問題，國家界線將不需要存在。
人類有史以來第一次發現自己在時間中的地位，偉大的內在存有同時派出每個具肉身的自己，在不同的歷史時代經驗人生，而人們有意識地成為實相的創造者，所有內在過去轉世自己的記憶復活，將大大的豐富人格存在的踏實性，人類偉大的精神能力開始展現；當過木匠的自己、當過冒險家的自己、當過帝王的自己等，所有過去的記憶都將從很深的潛意識浮現到意識層面；這個世界不但不會毀滅，相反地，還會進入精神與物質的高峰時代。
最重要的是，大家對未來世界要抱持美麗的願景，去除內心的恐懼，相對來說，人們不需要像基督教所講的最後審判，真正的審判其實是回到自己身上、對存在做很深的沈靜與覺察，因著內在神性的浮現，對累生累世的轉世人格作統整，而最終是愛與接納。因此，賽斯才會很開心地宣稱末世不會發生，世界也不會毀滅，審判是內在發生的一個過程。

在畫這幅時，主人希望是藍色綠色系，再加一點植栽的呈現，腦裡浮現去年在Madrid的Royal Botanic Gardens的場景。那是我想像中的亞特蘭提斯- 下一個文明
