HISTORY
OF THE END OF THE WORLD:
THE
SiTU ACADEMY: Introduction to Atlantis.
The
cellar was crowded this evening. Word has spread fast, that Jian,
nicknamed “the crazy monk”, would give an extra lecture on
Atlantis, due to recent developments. Some said it had to do with the
Crimean-crisis. Quite recently an enormous, buried, pyramid was found
there. According to some, this find was the reason Putin annexed the
Crimea. “Old artefacts and buildings can be used as weapons in a
battle for supremacy on another level.” Jian immediately started
talking when he entered the room. “No time to spare. This was a
possibility to imprint some concepts and reveal some secrets.”, he
thought, “Adolf Hitler immediately got hold of the “Spear of
Destiny”; a spear, that supposedly had pierced Jesus at the cross.
Later in history it enlarged the power of Kings and emperors in
Europe. It made them invinceble in battle. Hitler had the relic
brought to Berlin.
“But
concepts and names can contain power as well. Demons seem to hate a
crucifix and hearing the name of Jesus Christ. Atlantis as a concept
and a name have power, contain hidden messages and have enormous
attraction on humans for more than 2000 years. Explorers searched
for it and archeologists dugged and dived for it. The library,
containing just books, media and documents about Atlantis, would be
hughe and groing every day.
The
story of Atlantis was first written down by Plato, a famous teacher
and philosopher, in the fourth century BC. He describes Atlantis and
the catastrophic events that destroyed it. A story brought back by
the great Athenian politician Solon, from a trip to Egypt. It was
here he picked up the tale of Atlantis, which the Greeks chad
forgotten. Even though they defeated the Atlantean fleet and army!
Plato
was of middle-age, when he wrote his dialogues and the philosopher
did even finish the story. It ends in mid-sentence.
But when we look closer, things are getting completely different. Plato heard the story of Atlantis at a banquet, with several guests. These were feasts and the Greek loved wine. In this context Plato heard the story of the unforunate city. He was not even 20 years old!
Plato
himself noted, that the nice thing about Atlantis was, that it is
fact. Not fiction."
