The discoveries of these cities forced archeologists to push the dates for the origin of Indian civilization back thousands of years, just as Indians themselves insisted. A wonder to modern-day researchers, the cities are highly developed and advanced. The way that each city is laid out in regular blocks, with streets crossing each other at right angles, and the entire city laid out in sections, causes archaeologists to believe that the cities were conceived as a whole before they were built: a remarkable early example of city planning. Even more remarkable is that the plumbing-sewage systems throughout the large cities are so sophisticated, they are superior to those found in Pakistan, India, and many Asian countries today. Sewers were covered, and most homes had private toilets and running water. Furthermore, the water and sewage systems were kept well separated.31, 15, 39
This advanced culture had its own writing, which has never been deciphered. The people used personalized clay seals, much as the Chinese still do today, to officialize documents and letters. Some of the seals found contain figures of animals that are unknown to us today, including an extinct form of the brahma bull.
Archaeologists really have no idea who the builders were, but attempts to date the ruins (which they ascribe to the “Indus Valley Civilization,” also called “Harappan”) have come up with something like 2500 BC, and older. Radiation from the wars apparently fought in the area may have thrown off any dating techniques.
The Rama Empire, described in the Mahabharata and Ramayana, was supposedly contemporaneous with the great cultures of Atlantis and Osiris in the west. Atlantis, well-known from Plato’s writings and ancient Egyptian records, apparently existed in the mid-Atlantic and was a very highly technological and patriarchal civilization. As we have noted, the Osirian civilization existed in the Mediterranean basin and North Africa, according to esoteric doctrine and archeological evidence. The Osirian civilization is generally known as pre-dynastic Egypt, and was flooded when Atlantis sank and the Mediterranean began to fill up with water.

The Rama Empire flourished during the same period, according to esoteric tradition, fading out in the millennium after the destruction of the Atlantean continent. As noted above, the ancient Indian epics describe a series of horrific wars, wars which could have been between ancient India and Atlantis, or perhaps a third party in the Gobi region of western China. The Mahabharataand the Drona Parva (another ancient Indian epic) speak of the war and of the weapons used: great fireballs that could destroy a whole city, “Kapilla’s Glance” which could burn fifty thousand men to ashes in seconds, and flying spears that could ruin whole “cities full of forts.”31,15,39
The Rama Empire was started by the Nagas (Naacals) who had come into India from Burma and ultimately from “the Motherland to the east,” or so Col. James Churchward was told. After settling in the Deccan Plateau in northern India, they made their capital in the ancient city of Deccan, where today the modern city of Nagpur stands.
The empire of the Nagas apparently began to extend all over northern India to include the cities of Harappa, Mohenjo-Daro, and Kot Diji (now in Pakistan), and Lothal, Kalibanga, Mathura, and possibly other cities such as Benares, Ayodha, and Pataliputra.
These cities were led by “Great Teachers” or “Masters” who were the benevolent aristocracy of the Rama civilization. Today, they are generally called “Priest-Kings” of the Indus Valley Civilization, and a number of statues of these so-called gods have been discovered. In reality, these were apparently men whose mental-psychic powers were of a degree that seems incredible to most people of today. It was at the height of power for both the Rama Empire and Atlantis that the war allegedly broke out, seemingly because of Atlantis’ attempt to subjugate Rama.
According to the Lemurian Fellowship lesson materials, the populace surrounding Mu (Lemuria, which predated the other civilizations) had eventually split into two opposing factions: those who prized practicality and those who prized spirituality. The citizenry, or educated elite, of Mu itself, were balanced equally in these two qualities. The citizenry encouraged the other groups to emigrate to uninhabited lands. Those that prized practicality emigrated to the Poseid Island Group (Atlantis) and those that prized spirituality eventually ended up in India. The Atlanteans, a patriarchal civilization with an extremely materialistic, technology-oriented culture deemed themselves the “Masters of the World” and eventually sent a well-equipped army to India in order to subjugate the empire and bring it under the suzerainty of Atlantis. One account of the battle related by the Lemurian Fellowship in its lessons tells how the Rama Empire Priest-Kings defeated the Atlanteans.
Equipped with a formidable force and a “fantastic array of weapons,” the Atlanteans landed in their vailixi outside of one of the Rama cities, got their troops in order and sent a message to the ruling Priest-King of the city that he should surrender. The Priest-King sent word back to the Atlantean general: “We of India have no quarrel with you of Atlantis. We ask only that we be permitted to follow our own way of life.”
Regarding the ruler’s mild request as a confession of weakness, and expecting an easy victory, as the Rama Empire did not possess the technology of war nor the aggressiveness of the Atlanteans, the Atlantean general sent another message: “We shall not destroy your land with the mighty weapons at our command provided you pay sufficient tribute and accept the rulership of Atlantis.”
The Priest-King of the city responded humbly again, seeking to avert war: “We of India do not believe in war and strife, peace being our ideal. Neither would we destroy you or your soldiers who but follow orders. However, if you persist in your determination to attack us without cause and merely for the purpose of conquest, you will leave us no recourse but to destroy you and all of your leaders. Depart, and leave us in peace.”
Arrogantly, the Atlanteans did not believe that the Indians had the power to stop them, certainly not by technical means. At dawn, the Atlantean army began to march on the city. From a high viewpoint,the Priest-King sadly watched the army advance. Then he raised his arms heavenward and (using a mental technique perhaps known today by certain very knowledgeable persons) he caused the General, and then each officer in order of rank, to drop dead in his tracks, probably of some sort of heart failure. In a panic, and without leaders, the remaining Atlantean force fled to the wait-ing vailixi and retreated in terror to Atlantis! Of the sieged Rama city, not one man was lost.
A Rama Empire “Priest King”?
While this may be nothing but fanciful conjecture, the Indian epics go on to tell the rest of the horrible story, and things do not turn out well for Rama. Atlantis, assuming the above story is true, was not pleased at the humiliating defeat, and therefore used its most powerful and destructive weapon, probably an atomic weapon! These are verses from the ancient Mahabharata:
...(it was) a single projectile
Charged with all the power of the Universe.
An incandescent column of smoke and flame
As bright as the thousand suns
Rose in all its splendor...
...it was an unknown weapon,
An iron thunderbolt,
A gigantic messenger of death,
Which reduced to ashes
The entire race of the
Vrishnis and the Andhakas.
... The corpses were so burned
As to be unrecognizable.
The hair and nails fell out;
Pottery broke without apparent cause,
And the birds turned white...
...After a few hours
All foodstuffs were infected...
...to escape from this fire
The soldiers threw themselves in streams
To wash themselves and their equipment. “44
In the way we traditionally view ancient history, it seems absolutely incredible that there was an atomic war approximately ten thousand years ago. And yet, of what else could the Mahabharata be speaking? Perhaps this is just a poetic way
to describe cavemen clubbing each other to death; after all, that is what we are told the ancient past was like. Until the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, modern mankind could not imagine any weapon as horrible and devastating as those described in the ancient Indian texts. Yet they very accurately described the effects of an atomic explosion. Radioactive poisoning will make hair and nails fall out. Immersing one’s self in water is the only respite, though not a cure.
Interestingly, Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer, the “Father of the H-Bomb,” is known to be familiar with ancient Sanskrit literature. In an interview conducted after he watched the first atomic test, he quotes from the Bhagavad Gita; “‘Now I’ve become death—the Destroyer of Worlds.’ I suppose we all felt that way.” When asked in an interview at Rochester University seven years after the Alamogordo nuclear test whether that was the first atomic bomb ever to be detonated, his reply was, “Well, yes, in modern history.” 44
The Doom of Mohenjo-Daro
Incredible as it may seem, archaeologists have found evidence in India indicating that some cities were destroyed in atomic explosions. When excavations of Mohenjo-Daro and Harappa reached the street level, they discovered scattered skeletons about the cities, many holding hands and sprawling in the streets, as if some instant, horrible doom had taken place. I mean, people are just lying, unburied, in the streets of the city. And these skeletons are thousands of years old, even by traditional archaeological standards! What could cause such a thing? Why did the bodies not decay or get eaten by wild animals? Furthermore, there is no apparent cause of a violent death (heads hacked off, bashed in, etc.).
These skeletons are among the most radioactive ever found, on par with those at Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Soviet scholars have found a skeleton at one site that had a radioactive level fifty times greater than normal.44 The Russian archaeologist A. Gorbovsky mentions the high incidence of radiation associated with the skeletons in his 1966 book, Riddles of Ancient History. 45 Furthermore, thousands of fused lumps, christened “black stones,” have been found at Mohenjo-Daro. These appear to be fragments of clay vessels that melted together in extreme heat.
Other cities have been found in northern India that show indications of explosions of great magnitude: one such city, found between the Ganges and the mountains of Rajmahal, seems to have been subjected to intense heat. Huge masses of walls and foundations of the ancient city are fused together, literally vitrified! Since there is no indication of a volcanic eruption at Mohenjo-Daro, or at the other cities, the intense heat to melt clay vessels can only be explained by an atomic blast or some other unknown weapon.15,24,45
The cities were wiped out entirely. If we accept the Lemurian Fellowship stories as fact, then Atlantis wanted to waste no more time with the Priest-Kings of Rama and their mental tricks. In terrifying revenge, they utterly destroyed the Rama Empire, leaving no country to even pay tribute to them. The area around the cities of Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro are desolate deserts, though agriculture takes place to a limited extent in the vicinity today.
It is said in esoteric literature that Atlantis at the same time, or shortly afterwards, also attempted to subjugate a civilization extant in the area of the Gobi Desert, which was then a fertile plain. By using so-called “Scalar Wave Weaponry” and firing through the center of the earth, they wiped out their adversaries, and, possibly at the same time, did themselves in! Much speculation naturally exists in connection with remote history. We may never actually know the complete truth, though ancient texts are certainly a good start.
Atlantis met its own doom, according to Plato, by sinking into the ocean in a mighty cataclysm; not too long after the war with the Rama Empire, I imagine.
Kashmir is also connected with the fantastic war in ancient times that destroyed the Rama Empire. The massive ruins of a temple called Parshaspur can be found just outside Srinagar. It is a scene of total destruction ; huge blocks of stone are scattered about a wide area giving the impression of explosive annihilation.42 Was Parshaspur destroyed by some fantastic weapon during one of the horrendous battles detailed in the Mahabharata?
Another curious sign of an ancient nuclear war in India is a giant crater near Bombay. India’s nearly circular 2,154-meter diameter Lonar crater, located 400 kilometers northeast of Bombay and aged at less than 50,000 years old, could be related to nuclear warfare of antiquity. No trace of any meteoric, etc., material has been found at the site or in the vicinity, while it is the world’s only known ‘impact’ crater in basalt. Indications of great shock (from a pressure exceeding six hundred thousand atmospheres) and intense abrupt heat (indicated by basalt glass spherules) can be ascertained at the site.
Orthodoxy cannot, of course, concede nuclear possibilities for such craters even in the absence of any material meteorite, or related evidence. If such geologically recent craters as the Lonar were of meteoric origin, why then do such tremendous meteorites not fall today? The Earth’s atmosphere fifty thousand years ago probably was no different from today‘s, so a lighter atmosphere cannot be advanced as a hypothesis to attempt to explain an immense meteorite size, which of course would be considerably reduced by heat oxidization within a gaseously heavier atmosphere. A theory was advanced by American space consultant Pat Frank to the effect that some of the huge craters on the Earth may in fact be scars from ancient nuclear explosions!40
The echoes of ancient atomic warfare in south Asia continue to this day with India and Pakistan currently threatening each other. Modern India is proud of their nukes, likening them to “Rama’s Arrow.” Similarly, Pakistan would love to use its Islamic bomb on India. Ironically, Kashmir, possibly the site of an earlier atomic war, is the focus of this conflict. Will the past repeat itself in Pakistan and India?
In the crazy world of the new millennium and its underground tunnels, secret bases, UFOs, and nuclear weapons, there is always the possibility that this has all happened before. Maybe it has. Dejá Vu!

The Giza Pyramid Complex
The structures of the Giza Plateau in Egypt are perhaps the most famous examples of technological wonders built by the ancients using technologies we can neither understand nor duplicate today. Who built these monuments, how and why, has been the focus of immense speculation over the years.
The Sphinx is one of the three most controversial structures in Egypt, along with the Great Pyramid and the Osirion at Abydos. Carved out of solid rock, the Sphinx seems to typify the mystery of Egypt as it gazes silently out away from the pyramids. The age of the Sphinx is a matter of great debate. The body is severely eroded, though the Egyptian government is now reconstructing it.
What could have caused this heavy decay? The controversial German Egyptologist Schwaller de Lubicz observed that the the dramatically severe erosion on the body could not be the result of wind and sand, as universally assumed, but was rather the result of water. Geologists agree that in the not so distant past Egypt was subjected to severe flooding. This period is usually held to coincide with the melting of the ice from the last Ice Age, circa 15000 to 10000 BC!112
