Quest for the Lost Civilization

 

This is without a doubt one of the best documentary series ever made. Graham Hancock has put together so much evidence and consulted with so many of the world's top experts in their fields. Based on original research from the best selling book Heaven's Mirror.

Last week you started a Graham Hancock thread.

 

Why not put this new thread in there?

Or better yet in the Off Topic section.

 

We all know you're very interested in him, but this is a taoist philosophy site. If everyone made a dozen threads (u have a few dozen) on there pet issues it would be a very unfocused & relatively unvisited site.

 

I know you want to educate people but please keep the nature of this site in mind. There may be other web sites which could use 3 or 4 new threads a week on Hancock, Intelligent Design, etc.,

From the book Zhuan Falun-

So the issue of the lost civilizations in prehistory is relevant to spiritual culitivation.

 

I can't speak to the relevance of the topic, but I have often wondered about the origins of Taoist Alchemy/energy arts/Yoga, ect.

 

It is my impression that the current state is much degraded from what it was just a few hundred years ago in China. Because of masters dying off or being killed without passing on their knowledge, or simply because the knowledge is inherently difficult to pass along, much has been lost and what is left is only known to a few. That is my impression, anyway; the perspective of a recent initiate secluded in the midwest.

 

Was there a time when it was a common knowledge? Maybe not in recent memory, but perhaps when the human race was more in tune with nature? I would like to think so. I feel that, rather than exploring some spooky occult mumbo jumbo (as was recently suggested to me), I am reawakening a very natural and healthy sense of myself and my environment.

Absolutely, Pyramid does mean "Fire in the Middle", and I do believe it could originally have been talking about some type of energy practice or meditation.

Regardless of how far I take theorizing about the past at times, I definitely agree that there is a lot of truth to your statements.

 

People always think things are getting more and more advanced as modern society progresses. In fact, in many respects the old ways are superior, more advanced, and more difficult to attain and grasp.
