The Lost Continent of Mu THE LOST CONTINENT OF MU by Colonel James Churchward (1931) James Churchward (1851-1936) This material has been reconstructed from various unverified sources of very poor quality and reproduction CMG Archives http://campbellmgold.com --()-- 1 Preface Above - A Relic from Mu All matters of science in this work are based on the translations of two sets of ancient tablets. Naacal tablets which I discovered in India many years ago, and a large collection of stone tablets, over 2500, recently discovered by William Niven in Mexico. Both sets have the same origin; for both sets are extracts from the Sacred Inspired Writings of Mu. The Naacal tablets are written with the Naga symbols and characters--and, legend says, were written in the Motherland and first brought to Burma and then to India. 2 Their extreme age is attested to by the fact that history says the Naacals left Burma more than 15,000 years ago. Where the Mexican tablets were written is problematical. They are mostly written in the northern or Uighur symbols and characters. What actual writing there is on both sets is in the alphabet of Mu, the Motherland. Whether they were written in Mexico or in the Motherland and brought to Mexico I cannot say. They are, however, over 12,000 years old as shown by some of the tablets. Among the Mexican tablets I have found several speaking of Mu, and others that supply missing links in my Naacal tale of Creation. These I have added to the text of this edition of Mu, giving their dissections, decipherings and translations. Some of the subjects embodied in these American tablets are: an account of the Creation in minute detail, Life and its origin minutely given. The origin and workings of the "Four Great Cosmic Forces." Over 1000 tablets are devoted to this subject and last but not least: The creation of woman. The Naacal tablets which I came across in the Orient were only fragments of the various subjects with many missing links. The Mexican tablets not only confirm the Naacal but supply many of the missing links. I spent many years, proving as far as possible, by experimentation, that the facts set forth in these tablets were true. I spent over 50 years in investigation, research and explorations to prove out what I found written on these intensely interesting Naacal tablets. I have yet to find the first one that is wrong. The Mexican, like the Naacal, indubitably establishes to my own satisfaction that at one time the earth had an incalculably ancient civilization, which was, in many respects, superior to our own, and far in advance of us in some important essentials which the modern world is just beginning to have cognizance of. These tablets, with other ancient records, bear witness to the amazing fact that the civilizations of India, Babylonia, Persia, Egypt and Yucatan were but the dying embers of the first great civilization. The Oriental Naacal tablets which formed the foundation of the first edition of this book were a wonderful history of past man. Niven's Mexican Stone Tablets are equally wonderful and instructive, if not more so. They confirm my contention that the oldest records of man are not to be found in Egypt or the Valley of the Euphrates, but right here in North America and in the Orient where Mu planted her first colonies. I desire here to express my appreciation and thanks for the courtesies and contributions received for the benefit of this book from: The British Museum, London; Bernice P. Bishop Museum, Honolulu; The American Weekly, New York; Capt. E. A. Salisbury, Los Angeles, Cal., Samuel Hubbard, Oakland, Cal., and to William Niven, Austin, Texas, and to Certain Monasteries in India and Tibet whose names are withheld by request. --()-- 3 Contents Preface .................................................................................................................................................... 2 Contents .................................................................................................................................................. 4 List of Illustrations -

    A.·. A.·.: This is a special abbreviation for the name of a magical order, the Astrum Argentum (sometimes the words are reversed or spelled differently) which means “Silver Star” in Latin. The three dots that form a triangle after each “A” not only mean that there is something further that is hidden (that is, there is a spiritual abbreviation), but also form a Masonic symbol indicating that the order possesses the mysterious “Lost Word” of Masonry.

Abrahadabra: A rewriting of the famous magical word Abracadabra by Aleister Crowley. This places the name “Had,” a short form of the Egyptian Hadith that, according to some sources, represents Horus of Behedet, an area in Egypt. Hadith is the second person of the Thelemic trinity. Crowley believed it was the Word of the Aeon. One aspect of this is that it has eleven letters, thus linking the symbol of humanity, the pentagram (five identical letters) with the number of God, the hexagram, (six diverse letters).

Griffith PDF created for vielewelten.at/Source: GoldenPlanerForum Website Joan Griffith (James Churchward’s god-daughter, also the daughter of his best friend) wrote a more comprehensive article on Churchward’s findings and ideas in the World Explorer magazine. There’s much mystery and confusion, garbled tales and misinformation about the Lost Continent of Lemuria, but even more concerning the man who spent a lifetime trying to put it in its rightful place on the map, Colonel James M. Churchward, author of the Mu books. In 1920, the British-born Churchward came out with his first in a series of five hooks, The Lost Continent of Mu, prefaced by an admonition to "all scientists" to please copy for future reference. important points of pre-history and anthropology he had compiled through more than 50 years of research and exploration throughout Asia and the South Sea: "There was once a flourishing continent in the middle of the Pacific Ocean called Mu ... The greatest tragedy of mankind occurred when Mu sank, carrying down with her 63.000,000 people and a civilization approximately 200,000 years old. This civilization was at its peak before the mountains were raised, when according to Charles Darwin, man was still closely related to the monkey ... South America at that time had an inland sea comparable to the Mediterranean today. The Incas and the Mayas of prehistoric times were the dying embers of an earlier civilization. The oldest records of mankind are right here in our own country, which was one of Mu’s first colonies ..

  • The Flower of Life 1.P65
    THE ANCIENT SECRET OF THE FLOWER OF LIFE VOLUME 1 1 Acknow ledgments There are so many beings—in the hundreds—who have helped bring this work to completion. I can’t name them all, but I feel a need to recognize a few. First of all, the two angels who entered my life long ago and who have lovingly guided my life, you are most honored. Thoth, the ascended master from Atlantis, Egypt and Greece, has given me a great deal of the information in this book. My family, my wife Claudette and my children, who have been my greatest love and inspiration in life. The 200 facilitators teaching this work of the Flower of Life in 33 countries, who have given me invaluable feedback, support and love that has kept me strong. The thousands of students who have written loving letters telling how this work has changed their lives; this has given me strength to continue. Livea Cherish, who put this work into book form from the video format, and Margaret Pinyan, whose fine editing ability allows this book to read so smoothly. Tim Stouse, who created about half the computer graphics, and Michael Tyree, who created the other half; they have made it possible to understand what was being said. And O’Ryin Swanson, the owner of Light Technology Publishing, who had the faith in me to publish this work. To the rest of you who are too numerous to name, I thank you all from my heart with the prayer that this work will actually help people understand who they really are so that together we can create a more loving world—and perhaps even a more loving universe.

Then he searched for tablets of remains and ancient books around the world, and investigated a lot of ancient remains in the world. British: James Churchward The data of the lost continent of Mu Churchward searched the data of ancient book, including: Maya’s Paris Codex, Cortesianus Codex, Dresden Codex and Troano Manuscript, Indian Epic of Lamayana, Egyptian Book of the Death and Tibetan Lhasa Record. Then he wrote “The lost continent of Mu” after 50 years to introduce the land of Mu, which lost at 12,000 years ago. The book was attracted attention by common people. Church- ward understood the existence of ancient land of Mu in view of the Naacal tablets.

  • The Lost Continent of Mu and the Ancient Araucanians
    The Lost Continent of Mu and the Ancient Araucanians Vestiges of a Remote Transcontinental Connection Certainly our western America has more records of the ancient past than all the rest of the world together. James Churchward (The Lost Continent of Mu, the Motherland of Men, 1926) An Araucanian cemetery. A Machi or shaman along the Chemamüll or “Wooden Men”, evocation of the Lituches or “First Men” and totems crowned with the symbol of the eight-pointed star, that is, Venus, the double star of Yephun-Oiehuen (Photograph of Obder Heffer, 1910). James Churchward and his Studies about Mu James Churchward (February 27, 1851 - January 4, 1936) was a British- born writer, inventor, engineer, and sailor. Churchward made known through various books the existence of the lost continent of Mu, submerged in the Pacific Ocean. These works correspond to The Lost Continent of Mu, the Motherland of Men (1926), The Children of Mu (1931), The Sacred Symbols of Mu (1933), Cosmic Forces of Mu (1934) and Second Book of Cosmic Forces of Mu (1935)1. According to Churchward, the inhabitants of Mu possessed a superior civilization and spread it to the rest of the globe. Their vestiges are discovered in Polynesia, Mesoamerica and North America, India, Persia, Egypt and Europe. Mu was also the original homeland of man –the “Garden of Eden” – and reached a surprising 64,000,000 inhabitants. The Mu civilization flourished around 50,000 years before our time and collapsed due to a great telluric catastrophe. 1 Two posthumously published works should be added to this list: The Books of the Golden Age (written in 1927 and published in 1997) and Copies of Stone Tablets Found by William Niven at Santiago Ahuizoctla Near Mexico City (written in 1927 and published in 2014 and included in The Stone Tablets of Mu by Jack Churchward, author’s great-grandson).
