Next time we will read the section from Plato's Critias on Atlantis, so stay tuned!καλῶς ὑμῖν γένοιτο,Josep & LeandrosHere is the section we discuss:τιμαὶ δὲ καὶ ἔπαινοι εἴ τινες αὐτοῖς ἦσαν τότε παρ᾽ ἀλλήλων καὶ γέρα τῷ ὀξύτατα καθορῶντι τὰ παριόντα, καὶ μνημονεύοντι μάλιστα ὅσα τε πρότερα αὐτῶν καὶ ὕστερα εἰώθει καὶ ἅμα πορεύεσθαι, καὶ ἐκ τούτων δὴ δυνατώτατα ἀπομαντευομένῳ τὸ μέλλον ἥξειν, δοκεῖς ἂν αὐτὸν ἐπιθυμητικῶς αὐτῶν ἔχειν καὶ ζηλοῦν τοὺς παρ᾽ ἐκείνοις τιμωμένους τε καὶ ἐνδυναστεύοντας, ἢ τὸ τοῦ Ὁμήρου ἂν πεπονθέναι καὶ σφόδρα βούλεσθαι ‘“ἐπάρουρον ἐόντα θητευέμεν ἄλλῳ ἀνδρὶ παρ᾽ ἀκλήρῳ” Hom.

What you are about to read in these pages, is part of a long and systematic research begun with the intention of re-examining Plato's works of Timaeus and Critias.Its original objective was exceeded by some of those achieved. The idea was to make a connotatively accurate translation through which to examine the logic of the ancient Greek myths and of Plato the Rationalist in the role of Mythographer. This sort of translation is probably without precedence. It is certainly not commercially viable at this stage. But it does provide the accurate sense of every word, phrase, line, paragraph and passage of the ancient text. To ‘study the logic of myths', means to conduct an examination of a mythical account in order to see whether it contains connotations, terms, expressions or a particular form of writing in which can be identified possible axioms, laws, principles and rules or perhaps a systemic procedure that allows the taxonomy of what is true and what is false. To ‘study the logic of Plato', means to seek the rationale of the mythographer and what method (if any) he applied when writing a myth and to determine whether he combined truths and falsehoods and if so, why.Ultimately, to study what a myth is in purpose and in function because the Ancient Greek Myths have shown that contain many and important true information. So, why one should write such a true story in a such way that looks false?Plato was preferred because he has always been regarded as the representation of Rationalism, which somehow seems incompatible with creative writing. Accordingly, the myth chosen as the most appropriate for examination was that of Atlantis because of its workable length -neither too long nor short-, its descriptive elements and the acknowledged authenticity of its author Plato.The results of this taxing, in every aspect, investigation, as the reader will quickly come to appreciate from simply reading the information herein, were entirely unexpected and cannot be regarded as anything less than astounding.(As a whole, the cost of the first research has exceeded € 200.000 and has run into thousands of man-hours. Besides the wealth of information here, there's much more and just as rich.)Although the project's initial intent was to study the logic in myths and mythographers and which study yielded an unexpected amount of data as well as a formal structure to myths, the investigation went on to lead to somewhere completely different and by so doing, reward the author with a magnificent prize (amongst many), namely, the full decipherment of the myth of Atlantis and revelation of the whole truth!There now remains for the archaeologists to confirm these groundbreaking findings since, History seeks the truth, while Archaeology seeks the evidence.The two parts of the Methodology of Mythology (MoM1 and MoM2) that follow are in brief outline and almost exactly as when presented at an international conference of Philosophy and at other scientific meetings and scholarly proceedings, where they made excellent impressions to corresponding acclaim. They reveal a hitherto unknown dimension to myths, at least to those written by Plato and Homer. It is the application of a singular method which sorts out the truths and falsehoods contained in the myth. The MoM also revealed a way of writing which conceals information in outwardly straightforward text, information that would have been discernable only to whoever had been instructed as to this esoteric form of writing.The third part of the project is about Atlantis and its analysis in the book ‘The Apocalypse* of a Myth'. It deals with the decipherment of the myth and the identification of Atlantis as a physical entity. The reader of this site is recommended to go first into MoM1 & 2 and then into the part on Atlantis. It is not obligatory to follow this sequence but it will facilitate the reader's realization that the recount of Atlantis is not a ‘regular' story and has much hidden beneath the surface, even a tiny part is presented here. Certainly, Plato's reports do not make for straightforward or easy comprehension. If they did, the ambiguity surrounding Atlantis for the past ~2.300 years would not have remained so mystifying, simply because it would have been resolved long ago. The reader of this website will almost certainly come to appreciate the words of warning and prior notice as to the aptitude for rational thought that Plato demands of his reader.The same challenges in comprehension apply to the completed and comprehensive book ‘The Apocalypse* of a Myth'. A limited advance edition was published in Greek while the main and updated edition is in English. As assessed by many of the 200 or so test readers of the Greek edition, most being graduates from institutions of higher learning, the book ranges from decidedly thought provoking to highly exciting (for all Scientific fields) even if indeed challenging. Most who sought to fully understand all that the book contains admitted to reading it at least twice in full while going over certain aspects of it several times. It was truly gratifying to hear by many that they placed the book amongst those most often visited in their library, because of the plethora of useful information it contains in general for anyone wishing to delve further into ancient historical events or even for philosophical perspectives, irrespective of the Atlantis storyline.https://platoproject.gr/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

Une légende qui fait des vagues. Continent disparu dans un cataclysme, civilisation avancée victime de son arrogance, berceau extraterrestre de l'Humanité, l'Atlantide a inspiré d'innombrables théories et spéculations mystiques. Dans cet épisode, Gaël et Geoffroy reviennent sur l'histoire de ce mythe intemporel, sans cesse réinterprété à travers les âges, et qui résonne aujourd'hui plus que jamais face à la fragilité croissante de notre monde.

Muchos son los lugares míticos que han surgido a lo largo de la historia que han llevado a aventureros y conquistadores a realizar expediciones para descubrirlos. Hoy vamos a recordar algunos de ellos, que como son míticos, puede que nunca existieran y si lo hicieron aún no han sido descubiertos. Vamos a recordar lugares como la Atlántida, Ciudad Z, El Dorado y Agartha. Los lugares míticos han sido fuente de fascinación y misterio a lo largo de la historia humana. Estas ubicaciones, muchas veces legendarias o envolviendo relatos que se pierden en el tiempo, están profundamente ligadas a la mitología, la religión, las tradiciones culturales y los misterios de lo desconocido. Aquí te dejo algunos de los lugares míticos más interesantes y su trasfondo: 1. Atlántida La legendaria isla de la Atlántida es posiblemente uno de los mitos más famosos. Mencionada por primera vez por el filósofo griego Platón en sus diálogos “Timeo” y “Critias”, la Atlántida supuestamente era una avanzada civilización que desapareció bajo el mar. Platón describió la Atlántida como una sociedad próspera y poderosa que terminó siendo destruida por un cataclismo divino debido a su corrupción y excesiva ambición. A lo largo de los siglos, la Atlántida ha sido objeto de especulación y búsqueda, pero hasta ahora, su existencia sigue siendo un misterio no confirmado. 2. El Dorado La leyenda de El Dorado se originó en Sudamérica durante la época de la conquista española. Según el mito, existía una ciudad o un reino donde el oro era abundante, y su rey cubría su cuerpo con polvo de oro. Los conquistadores españoles y otros aventureros europeos dedicaron grandes esfuerzos en buscar este lugar mítico, especialmente en la región amazónica y en los Andes. Sin embargo, El Dorado nunca fue encontrado, y muchos historiadores creen que es una mezcla de relatos exagerados y malinterpretados sobre las prácticas rituales de los pueblos indígenas. 3. Avalon Avalon es una isla mítica de la leyenda artúrica. Se dice que es el lugar donde se forjó la famosa espada Excalibur y donde el Rey Arturo fue llevado para ser curado de sus heridas tras la batalla de Camlann. Avalon es descrito como un paraíso terrenal, un lugar místico envuelto en niebla, y en algunos relatos se sugiere que es un sitio de inmortalidad. La conexión entre Avalon y la tradición celta es evidente, siendo probablemente una versión idealizada de las tierras de los muertos o los paraísos celtas. 4. Shambhala En la tradición tibetana y budista, Shambhala es un reino oculto ubicado más allá de las montañas nevadas del Himalaya. Se describe como una utopía espiritual, donde sus habitantes disfrutan de paz, sabiduría y longevidad, y donde el conocimiento es abundante. Los textos budistas mencionan que el rey de Shambhala aparecerá en el futuro para derrotar a las fuerzas del mal y restaurar el orden y la espiritualidad en el mundo. A lo largo de la historia, exploradores han intentado localizar Shambhala en el mundo físico, pero se cree que, más que un lugar geográfico, es un símbolo de realización espiritual. 5. Tierra de Mu El mito de Mu, una civilización perdida, proviene de los escritos del coronel británico James Churchward, quien afirmó haber encontrado antiguas tablillas en un monasterio tibetano que describían este continente. Según él, Mu se encontraba en el océano Pacífico y fue la cuna de todas las civilizaciones antiguas. Al igual que la Atlántida, se decía que fue destruida en un gran cataclismo, pero dejó un legado a través de sus supervivientes que fundaron otras grandes culturas. Aunque no hay evidencia arqueológica de la existencia de Mu, la historia ha capturado la imaginación de los interesados en las civilizaciones perdidas. 6. La ciudad perdida de Z La ciudad perdida de Z es otro enigma que ha desatado la curiosidad de exploradores y aventureros. Se cree que existía en algún lugar de la selva amazónica, y el explorador británico Percy Fawcett dedicó su vida a buscarla. Fawcett estaba convencido de que había restos de una civilización avanzada, similar a las ciudades mayas o incas, escondida en el corazón del Amazonas. En 1925, desapareció sin dejar rastro durante una expedición para encontrar Z. Su búsqueda ha inspirado libros, películas y teorías sobre lo que pudo haber encontrado en esas tierras inexploradas. 7. El Triángulo de las Bermudas El Triángulo de las Bermudas es una región en el Océano Atlántico, delimitada por puntos en Miami, Puerto Rico y las islas Bermudas, donde ha habido desapariciones inexplicables de barcos y aviones. Aunque no es un lugar mítico en el sentido tradicional, el misterio que lo rodea ha alimentado innumerables teorías, que van desde explicaciones científicas, como anomalías magnéticas y huracanes, hasta especulaciones sobre portales dimensionales, actividad extraterrestre o la influencia de la Atlántida. A pesar de los intentos por desmitificarlo, sigue siendo un lugar envuelto en misterio. 8. Valhalla En la mitología nórdica, Valhalla es el majestuoso salón de los caídos, donde los guerreros que han muerto en batalla son llevados por las valquirias. Gobernado por el dios Odín, Valhalla es un lugar donde los guerreros practican batallas eternas en preparación para el Ragnarök, el fin del mundo. Este salón mítico ha sido descrito en sagas y epopeyas nórdicas como un lugar de honor y gloria, y ha capturado la imaginación no solo de aquellos interesados en la mitología nórdica, sino también de quienes buscan en la muerte una glorificación heroica. 9. Hyperbórea Los antiguos griegos hablaban de Hyperbórea, una tierra ubicada más allá del viento del norte, donde los habitantes eran bendecidos con una existencia de paz y abundancia. Este lugar estaba asociado con los dioses Apolo y los vientos fríos del norte. Se creía que sus habitantes vivían sin enfermedad ni vejez, en un entorno donde el sol nunca se ponía. Hyperbórea, en muchas formas, representaba el ideal utópico de los antiguos, un lugar libre de las limitaciones y sufrimientos de la vida mortal. 10. La Fuente de la Eterna Juventud La leyenda de la Fuente de la Eterna Juventud ha sido popular en muchas culturas. Durante la época de la conquista de América, esta leyenda adquirió notoriedad cuando exploradores españoles, como Ponce de León, intentaron encontrar esta fuente en lo que hoy es Florida. Se creía que quien bebiera de sus aguas obtendría una vida prolongada o incluso la inmortalidad. Aunque nunca fue hallada, la historia de la fuente se ha convertido en un símbolo de la búsqueda humana de la eterna juventud y la vida sin fin. Estos lugares míticos reflejan el deseo humano de descubrir lo desconocido, encontrar refugio en lo maravilloso o, simplemente, buscar respuestas a preguntas profundas sobre la existencia. ¿Hay alguna de estas leyendas que te llame particularmente la atención o te gustaría explorar más?

La Atlántida, una isla legendaria en el Océano Atlántico, situada al oeste del Estrecho de Gibraltar. Las principales fuentes de la leyenda son dos de los diálogos de Platón, Timeo y Critias. En el primero, Platón describe cómo los sacerdotes egipcios, en conversación con el legislador ateniense Solón, describieron la Atlántida como una isla más grande que Asia Menor y Libia juntas, y situada justo más allá de las Columnas de Hércules (el Estrecho de Gibraltar). Unos 9.000 años antes del nacimiento de Solón, decían los sacerdotes, la Atlántida era una isla rica cuyos poderosos príncipes conquistaron muchas de las tierras del Mediterráneo hasta que finalmente fueron derrotados por los atenienses y sus aliados. Los atlantes con el tiempo se volvieron malvados e impíos, y su isla fue tragada por el mar como resultado de los terremotos. En el Critias, Platón proporcionó una historia de la comunidad ideal de los atlantes.

The Atlantis Puzzle, written and directed by Jack Kelley, might seem like some Ancient Aliens drivel at a glance. However, unlike that widely mocked show or the countless movies that “prove” Bigfoot is real, the filmmaker relies on historical facts, the original Plato text that tells of Atlantis, and geography to get to the heart of the matter. Interestingly, said heart is not to prove where or when Atlantis sank but that it did not sink into the ocean. How convincing is the argument made?Electrical engineer George Sarantitis is an avid student of ancient Greece. In looking over Plato's Critias, which is the text that contains the myth of Atlantis, the man discovered several translation errors, such as “ocean” versus “sea” or “this here” versus “that there.” So he has spent years retranslating the text with help and claims to have figured out where Atlantis was and that while it was wiped away, it did not sink to the bottom of the ocean.Kelley meticulously chronicles Sarantitis's claims through interviews, taking the audience on a journey of discovery. His thorough approach, including global travels and an in-depth exploration of Plato's life, is a testament to his dedication. The filmmaker examines known geographical facts (crocodiles live in a desert with no nearby water source?) all to try and verify what Sarantitis says. But just before this becomes a simple puff piece, Kelley scrutinizes Critias for all the things that are not possible, then or now.It is Kelley's unwavering dedication to debunking that gives credence to so much of The Atlantis Puzzle. By openly acknowledging the embellished or simply made-up parts, the elements grounded in history are much easier to swallow, leaving the audience reassured and confident in the credibility of the other claims. It also helps that several indisputable facts also lend themselves to claims made by Sarantitis, such as a 40-kilometer city ruin in western Africa. Aside from Sarantitis, the director talks to a semiologist to better understand the numerous after-effects of earthquakes.Veracity aside, how is the documentary as a motion picture? Kelley, with his expertise in the field, has helmed a very polished and expertly crafted experience. The interviews are interspersed nicely, and the use of a regional map greatly helps all watching understand the areas discussed throughout the 85-minute runtime. The interjection of text to emphasize this claim or that part works nicely, showcasing Kelley's directorial skills and attention to detail. This expertise instills confidence in the audience about the quality of the finished project.The Atlantis Puzzle is not just a documentary, it is an engaging journey that offers more facts and historical precedent than the title might imply. Kelley is a fun host whose natural curiosity rubs off on viewers, making the exploration of ancient mysteries a thrilling and exciting experience. Sarantitis comes across as very passionate and intelligent. The film is well-directed and maintains a nice pace. Most importantly, the movie backs up just about every claim via historical facts or known geographical anomalies. All in all, this is an expertly made documentary that will please history buffs and cinephiles equally.For more information, visit the official The Atlantis Puzzle site.https://www.primevideo.com/detail/The-Atlantis-Puzzle/0IWJPRNDZQM1CHI56Y9RIDL66OBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.
Like most people, writer and filmmaker Jack Kelley thought Plato's account of Atlantis was just an allegory when he, during a vacation on the Greek island of Santorini, was drawn into a world of research that takes the Platonic story seriously. Even in that world, however, there are diverging opinions about the location of the lost civilization. Jack came across the work of Greek engineer and linguist George Sarantitis and thought: “This guy might actually have cracked it.” He made contact, and the collaboration that followed resulted in the newly released documentary The Atlantis Puzzle, based on Sarantits' groundbreaking findings (watch and give a review here or here). Taking Plato's account seriously is controversial. “The very idea of Atlantis is frightening to mainstream academic researchers. They could easily end up looking like fools. The risk-reward is not there. That keeps a lot of first-class minds from seriously addressing what this subject is really about. And Sarantitis is a first-class mind”, Jack says. George Sarantitis refused to believe the two Plato dialogues Timaeus and Critias, where Atlantis is discussed, were just nonsense fables. He retranslated the texts and realized that important concepts had been misinterpreted for centuries. For example, an ‘Atlantic pelagos' does not mean ‘The Atlantic ocean'. ‘Pelagos' is a lesser sea. Earlier translators had only made an assumption, because nobody had ever heard of an ‘Atlantic pelagos'. Sarantitis found a few other things that hadn't been well delineated. For instance, three words for ‘island' are being thrown around. This retranslation led him to the conclusion that ‘the pillars of Herakles', a crucial reference, probably doesn't mean the strait of Gibraltar, which completely changes the idea of where Atlantis may have been located. Sarantitis' surprising hypothesis is that the ‘pelagos' was a series of navigable inland megalakes in northwest Africa where one could sail to the empire known as Atlantis. It is a fact that there are a series of huge salt lakes in the area that indicate that there was once a large body of water, and we now know that the Sahara was a lot wetter at the time Plato points to. Then there is the much-talked-about Richat structure, the ‘Eye of the Sahara', which well matches Plato's description of the Atlantean capital. So, if there was a civilization in this area, why did it disappear? If the extreme climatological changes during the latter part of the Younger Dryas (matches Plato's time frame) were accompanied by earthquakes, tsunamis and other geophysical disasters, a civilizational collapse is plausible. Jack engaged preeminent earthquake expert Dr Scott Ashford for the documentary. “According to Ashford, Plato is accurately describing what the effects of the combination of these natural disasters would have been”, Jack says. Was Atlantis advanced? In Jack's mind, it was sort of advanced for its time but probably more of a hunter-gatherer than a bronze age kind of society. He does not subscribe to the more grand theories out there. But he does give other independent researchers credit for pushing the idea that mainstream academia is ignoring many signs of lost human worlds in lands that are now below water, not just the one Plato is talking about. There are hundreds of ancient flood myths, for example. “Clearly there were kingdoms, tribes, even empires that we don't have any names for today”, Jack says.
Voces del Misterio: El misterio de la Atlántida y de Tartesos. Quizás el mito griego más importante y que más ha perdurado en el imaginario popular hasta la actualidad es el mito de la Atlántida descrito por Platón en los diálogos Timeo y Critias que sitúa esta mítica Isla justo después de las columnas de Hércules y habla de la riqueza mineral de las montañas próximas lo que situaría la Atlántida en el territorio tartésico. Con Jose Manuel García Bautista. Voces del Misterio: El misterio de la Atlántida y de Tartesos.
New ideas about Atlantis have come to light because of a new re translation of the only place we got any information about Atlantis; Plato's Timaeus and Critias (done by George Sarantitis in the documentary "The Atlantis Puzzle"). Sevan is back. The last time we talked with him was about the Richat Structure being the ancient location of the capital of Atlantis. He just directed the Whitest Kids You Know's movie "Mars" - look out for that.

Timaeus by Plato audiobook. 'Our intention is, that Timaeus, who is the most of an astronomer amongst us, and has made the nature of the universe his special study, should speak first, beginning with the generation of the world and going down to the creation of man...' 'Timaeus' is usually regarded as one of Plato's later dialogues, and provides an account of the creation of the universe, with physical, metaphysical and ethical dimensions, which had great influence over philosophers for centuries following. It attributes the order and beauty of the universe to a benevolent demiurge - a 'craftsman' or god - fashioning the physical world after the pattern of an ideal, eternal one. The dramatic setting of the dialogue is the day after a discussion in which Socrates has described his ideal state - as in the 'Republic'. A conversation between Socrates, Critias, Hermocrates and Timaeus, including Critias' account of Solon's journey to Egypt (where he hears the story of Atlantis), soon gives way to the monologue by Timaeus that forms the bulk of the work. 'Timaeus' is translated by Benjamin Jowett and his comprehensive introduction to and analysis of the work precedes the text itself, which he describes as 'the growth of an age in which philosophy is not wholly separated from poetry and mythology'.

Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! Desde hace más de dos mil años, la historia de la Atlántida, ha captado la imaginación de generaciones enteras hasta la actualidad. Este misterioso continente, descrito por primera vez por el filósofo griego Platón en sus diálogos "Critias" y "Timeo", ha sido objeto de fantasías y leyendas. Platón narró la existencia de una avanzada civilización que, en un solo día y una noche, fue tragada por el mar sumergida en en medio de gigantescas olas, desapareciendo del mapa sin dejar rastro. Otros han sugerido que la historia de la Atlántida, podría estar basada en eventos reales o en una civilización antigua que realmente existió, aunque tal vez no exactamente como la describió Platón. Algunas teorías apuntan a catástrofes naturales, como la erupción de Thera (Santorini) o el colapso de civilizaciones avanzadas, como los minoicos, como posibles inspiraciones para la historia. A lo largo de los siglos, la idea de la Atlántida, ha sido adoptada y reinterpretada por diversas culturas. Algunos lo consideran un mito inspirador, mientras que otros lo han asociado a teorías puramente especulativas sobre civilizaciones avanzadas y perdidas. ¿Es la Atlántida un mito, una simple invención literaria de Platón para plasmar sus ideas filosóficas y morales, o una civilización real perdida en el tiempo? Esto es solamente un avance de lo que os espera… Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals

This week Ryan Seven returns with some intriguing new research regarding Plato's story of Atlantis. What did the Old Master encode within his legendary narrative? Find Ryan here YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/BrotherBones1111 From the web: The original account of Atlantis comes from two of Plato's dialogues: “Timaeus” and “Critias”. These dialogues were written around 360 BCE. Plato crafted these dialogues as a festival speech to be delivered during the Panathenaea, in honour of the goddess Athena. In the dialogues, Socrates asks three men to share stories about ancient Athens and its interactions with other states. Critias, one of these men, recounts a tale passed down from his grandfather, who had met the Athenian poet and lawgiver Solon during his travels to Egypt. According to the Egyptians (as relayed by Solon), there once existed a mighty empire called Atlantis. It was situated on an island in the Atlantic Ocean and ruled over other islands and parts of Africa and Europe. The city of Atlantis was meticulously designed, with concentric rings of alternating water and land. It boasted rich soil, advanced engineering, extravagant architecture, and organised military and civil administration. Their rituals paralleled those of Athens, including bull-baiting, sacrifice, and prayer. However, Atlantis became imperialistic and waged an unprovoked war against the rest of Asia and Europe. In this conflict, the much smaller city-state of Athens stood as the sole defender against the invading Atlantean forces. Against all odds, Athens triumphed, defeating Atlantis and preventing enslavement. After the battle, violent earthquakes and floods struck, causing Atlantis to sink into the sea. All the Athenian warriors were swallowed up by the earth. In Ancient Greece, psychedelic mushrooms played a significant role in religious and spiritual practices. The Eleusinian Mysteries were celebrated in honour of the goddess Demeter and her daughter Persephone. These mysteries were regarded as the most sacred of all the rituals in Ancient Greek religion. Ancient pottery and paintings depict Persephone and Demeter holding mushrooms. These depictions suggest that the use of psychedelic mushrooms was well-known during ancient Greek times. While the exact details of the Eleusinian Mysteries remain shrouded in secrecy, it is clear that psychedelics played a crucial role in these sacred rituals. Plato, the renowned ancient Greek philosopher, was indeed initiated into the Greater Mysteries. This initiation occurred when he was 49 years old, and it took place in one of the subterranean halls of the Great Pyramid in Egypt. Plato himself acknowledged the significance of these mysteries. In his famous dialogue on the immortality of the soul, the “Phaedo”, he stated: “Our mysteries had a very real meaning: he that has been purified and initiated shall dwell with the gods” . #atlantis #lostcivilisation #plato _______________________________ Follow us here: https://allmylinks.com/the-amish-inquisition Signup for the newsletter, join the community, follow us online, and most importantly share links!

Plato brought the legend of Atlantis to the world in the Timaeus, and in the Critias provided many details of the fabulously wealthy and technologically advanced society that fell into disharmony and disappeared in a great earthquake 9,000 years earlier. As the character Critias relates the story, over time the Atlanteans gradually forgot their divine origin from the god Poseidon and began to pursue material wealth, losing their harmony and bringing upon themselves the punishment of Zeus. On December 3, 2023, members of the Toronto, Calgary, and Chicago Philosophy Meetup groups addressed the curious ending of the tale told by the character Critias, just as he was about to quote the words of Zeus. Was this cliff-hanger, “and he said …” a theatrical device of Plato, or a case of lost writing, or was Plato telling us that no human can know the mind of a god? The theme of memory plays throughout the dialogue, and Critias says that memory is particularly difficult when opinion applies in representing human actions over time. Was the ancient story that Critias relates a warning to the Athenians of his time about social constitutions like those of Atlantis that become too rigidly rooted in the past, and are there warnings in it for our time? The mystery of Atlantis has endured for 2,400 years since Plato's writing, and in our discussion we may have found some clues to understanding the lessons of Atlantean history.
This is a thesis about Nietzsche. My obsession with Nietzsche started when I was sixteen years old. Inspired by Nietzsche, I went back to Homer and to Plato and read them through Nietzsche's provocations. These provocations also inspired me to learn Greek. I would guess I thought through the ideas behind this thesis around the time I was twenty-two years old. The fundamental problem that motivated me then as it does now: what is life as opposed to death, and what is life as full of life, as opposed to life as diminished life. ... While it would greatly amuse me to claim now that I learned all my naughty ideas from my advisors, and that there is a secret Straussian finishing school for people like me of unusual persuasion, I think even they don't deserve this. I've learned everything I care about on my own and certainly not from any professors. It's not arrogant of me to say this, but the truth. ... They enjoy the notoriety and the implication that they must be very powerful operators, or Machiavellian eminences-grises. This is much better than the thought that they are an ineffectual ladies' reading group. They are so powerful that they've been almost completely eliminated from the few positions they once held at prominent universities. Other Straussians deny these claims but engage in a different outlandish self-flattery where they view themselves as preservers of classical philosophy and the light of freedom of thought, republican moderation, and so on...and other pieties of this kind. None of these things are true. ... Critias, Socrates' student, was the Hitler of the ancient Greek world. He and his friends established a regime based on atheistic biologism so to speak; on “Sparta radicalized,” a eugenic antinomian dictatorship. He was maybe what Hitler's most hysterical detractors claim of him today. Critias killed more Athenians in his short rule than died in the decades of the war with Sparta. He expelled almost everyone from the city, and burned the docks, which were the perceived source of democratic power. He wasted all the priests of Eleusis for being tedious religious moralists. He saw the purpose of the Spartan constitution as the creation of one “supreme biological specimen,” and Critias sought to found a state based on such ideas. He and his friends were overthrown quite quickly. ... dysgenics as opposed to eugenics combined with modern technology --another product of Socratic-Alexandrian scientific civilization--leads to mechanized and universalized dysgenics. I am trying to explain some of the implications of the work of Nietzsche for a world in which he is still the only prophet, and will remain so for some centuries.
Plato's Pod introduces its 4th season by demonstrating the relevance of ancient philosophy to modern technology with the question, “What Would Socrates Say About ChatGPT?” We take Socrates to the offices of OpenAI to meet the company's CEO, Sam Altman, and imagine the questions that Socrates would have after the technology is explained to him. In the course of the imagined meeting, we bring a number of Plato's dialogues previously featured in the podcast into consideration, including the Cratylus, The Republic, the Phaedo, the Phaedrus, the Meno, the Statesman, the Theaetetus, the Critias, and the Philebus. What do you think - are there some timeless and fundamentally questions about our relationship with technology?
Next Level Soul with Alex Ferrari: A Spirituality & Personal Growth Podcast
Laura Coe is an author, life coach, and speaker who specializes in personal development and spirituality. She has written and spoken extensively on the topic of the Akashic Records. In this episode we discuss about Atlantis and lost civilizations of humanity and the spiritual implications of what happened to those societies.Atlantis is a legendary and mythical island believed to have existed in ancient times. The story of Atlantis has captured the human imagination for centuries, inspiring countless tales, theories, and speculative works. The first known mention of Atlantis comes from the writings of the ancient Greek philosopher Plato in his dialogues "Timaeus" and "Critias."According to Plato's account, Atlantis was a mighty and prosperous civilization that reached its zenith around 9,000 years before his time. It was a highly advanced society with exceptional architecture, technology, and knowledge. Atlantis was said to be ruled by kings descended from the god Poseidon and was located beyond the Pillars of Hercules, believed to be either the Strait of Gibraltar or the Mediterranean Sea.The fall of Atlantis is a central part of the story, as its people became corrupt and indulgent. As a result, the gods punished them, causing the island to sink into the sea, disappearing in a cataclysmic event.While many consider Atlantis to be purely a fictional creation of Plato's imagination, others have searched for evidence of its existence throughout history. Numerous theories and speculative locations have been proposed, but no concrete evidence has been found to support the existence of a lost city called Atlantis.As a result, Atlantis remains one of the most enduring mysteries and intriguing legends, reminding us of the allure and fragility of great civilizations throughout the annals of time. Its legacy continues to be a symbol of a golden age and a cautionary tale, encouraging exploration, discovery, and a fascination with the unknown.Please enjoy my conversation with Laura Coe.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4858435/advertisement

Send us a Text Message.The lost city of Atlantis was said to be an ideal, utopian society, flourishing under the noble leadership of 10 princes who swore an oath to the gods to never let greed, arrogance, or hate interrupt the peace of their righteous civilization. It was technologically advanced beyond our comprehension even today, a prosperous maritime trading post, an inspiring world leader. That is, until human nature - ego - got in the way as it so often does. Atlantis quickly fell from grace, smote by the gods, destroyed in a single day by earthquakes and floods, lost to the ages. But did you know, the questionably true story of Atlantis ironically inspired some of the most arrogant and hate filled atrocities ever committed by man? Let's fix that.

This week Chris Tolworthy, author of ‘Jack Kirby's History Of The Future: 2026 and the Great Disaster' returns for a deep dive on the evidence for Atlantis predating Plato's account in Timaeus and Critias. We also intend to cover how archaeological evidence confirms the story, how it was preserved through astronomy and mythology; and may even be written into our own DNA!

The only historical reference to the lost continent of Atlantis is found in the final dialogs written by the Greek philosopher Plato. In the first of three intended dialogs, Timaeus lays out creation of the universe and establishes the foundations of government detailed in Plato's early work: Republic. The second dialog, Critias, discusses a possible historical account of the distant nation of Atlantis including some description of its might and of its destruction. The end of Critias has been lost to time and the third dialog, Hermocrates, was likely never completed due to Plato's death. Is there enough descriptions of this lost kingdom to find clues in the ancient world and discover its final location or was Atlantis a fabricated element to serve a purpose in Plato's dialogs?Support the show
Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss Plato's account of the once great island of Atlantis out to the west, beyond the world known to his fellow Athenians, and why it disappeared many thousands of years before his time. There are no sources for this story other than Plato, and he tells it across two of his works, the Timaeus and the Critias, tantalizing his readers with evidence that it is true and clues that it is a fantasy. Atlantis, for Plato, is a way to explore what an ideal republic really is, and whether Athens could be (or ever was) one; to European travellers in the Renaissance, though, his story reflected their own encounters with distant lands, previously unknown to them, spurring generations of explorers to scour the oceans and in the hope of finding a lost world. The image above is from an engraving of the legendary island of Atlantis after a description by Athanasius Kircher (1602-1680).

More than 2300 years ago, the first mention of a continent was presented. It was a land of technological advances and utopia for its people. It became known as the continent of Atlantis. However, they became greedy, petty, and "morally bankrupt," and the gods "became angry because the people had lost their way and turned to immoral pursuits". As punishment, the gods sent "one terrible night of fire and earthquakes" that caused Atlantis to sink into the sea. Since then, rumors of every type abound regarding the city and continent of Atlantis. Was it as technologically advanced as believed? Where did it exist, and more importantly, did it even exist at all. Join Gary and GoldieAnn as they take a walk within the mist, and expolre the Lost Continent of Atlantis.

In this I take things a little slower - but it's well worth the journey through Plato - even Plato's uncle "Critias" makes an appearance - and the great defender of liberalism John Milton who was one of the first to argue against censorship. Milton was one of the first to argue "truth will out" in a battle against falsehood. Popper disagreed - but agreed with Milton that censorship was never good. So what was the disagreement and how was it resolved? We learn Plato endorsed a "blood and soil" fallacy that tyrants (and not so tyrants) have used to exploit racial divisions for political reasons through to today. Popper criticises not merely the low-hanging fruit of racism but also of the origins of liberal ideas and how they can also lead to tyranny if not looked at under the brighter light of fallibilism - which as I have argued before is like an acid that is able to dissolve through dogmatism and relativism alike. Popper uses the idea that truth is NOT manifest to explain how we can better build a tolerant society by just appreciating that we can all be in error.

In this weeks episode, Josh and Ritchie get into a conversation on the Lost World of Atlantis! They give some preparatory notes and background information on the source material that comes from Plato. They get into some of the story from Plato's "Critias". They get into the divine council and occultic overtones to the story. They discuss how Atlantis fits into Randall Carlson and Graham Hancock's Younger Dryas theories, and finally they give their take on the story and show how it should be understood mytho-historically while also drawing some application from the story. Let us know what you think about this episode! You won't find content like the anywhere else!
This week Atlantis researcher and content creator Mat Chinn returns to show us some of his latest work. Since the time of Plato and his dialogues Timaeus and Critias, scholars, authors and independent researchers have been consumed with finding the fabled lost civilisation of Atlantis. Plato's recount of the information given by Egyptian High Priests to his Greek countryman and statesman Solon has often provided the launchpad for research in this area, and the eerily accurate date that Plato provides (c. 9500 BC), and its temporal association with the Younger Dryas climatic upheaval has only added fuel to the fire in recent years. Following clues from Plato's account, beyond the Pillars Of Hercules, many locations have been proposed for its location. From The Azores and The Richat Structure, to Doggerland and Antarctica. Can modern science and engineering aid us in our quest? More recent technological developments in satellite photography, oceanography and bathymetry surveying may finally provide indisputable evidence for the existence of Atlantis, a claim that has led honest and hard working researchers to be labelled as kooks, cranks and fantasists for daring to approach this subject with an open, enquiring mind. Well not here. We love a good mystery at The Amish Inquisition and can't wait to hear how Mat's research has evolved since we last spoke and if we are any nearer to nailing down this historical enigma. ______________________________________________________________________________________ For more information on Mat's work, follow these links: Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/c/Apocalypse0/featured Odysee - https://odysee.com/@Apocalypse:5 ______________________________________________________________________________________________ #Atlantis #lostcivilization #ancienthistory After our chat with Mat, we covered the usual housekeeping and some current events..

Russell Gmirkin is back to talk about his blockbuster latest book: Plato's Timaeus and the Biblical Creation Accounts: Cosmic Monotheism and Terrestrial Polytheism in the Primordial History. Join us as we discuss the book's mind-bending conclusions: Plato's Timaeus and Critias were sources for much of the biblical primordial history, from the creation of the cosmos and mortal creatures, to Eden, the Flood and the Nephilim. Genesis reflects Plato's cosmic monotheism and terrestrial polytheism, which devolved into Exodus-Judges' monolatry. Plato was also perhaps the first totalitarian political theorist. And his legacy lives on today.

Just because Plato's Atlantis was never intended to convey history doesn't meant it didn't have some historical inspiration in the form of a Bronze Age natural disaster...
