The cult of the Mother, destined to come into prominence in the twentieth century, was the foundation of the civilization of Lemuria—that lost continent that sank beneath the Pacific Ocean many thousands of years ago. The evolution of life in the Motherland and her colonies represented the initial thrust of Spirit into Matter on this planet. Here, where the early [[root race]]s completed the cycles of their divine plan during not one but several [[golden age]]s that reached their apex prior to the [[Fall of man]], the masculine ray (the descending spirals of [[Spirit]]) was realized through the feminine ray (the ascending spirals of [[Matter]]) in the world of form.

Mapa da Lemúria de O Continente Perdido de Mu, de James Churchward (1927). Este mapa, baseado na leitura de textos antigos por Churchward, mostra o continente da Lemúria como era antes de sua destruição final.

Mu, ou Lemúria o continente perdido do Pacífico, que, segundo descobertas de James Churchward, arqueólogo e autor de O Continente Perdido de Mu, estendia-se do norte do Havaí até cerca de cinco mil quilômetros ao sul da ilha da Páscoa e das ilhas Fiji, constituído de três áreas de terra que compreendiam mais de oito mil quilômetros de leste a oeste.

A história da antiga terra-mãe de Churchuward baseia-se em registros encontrados em tábuas sagradas que ele afirma ter descoberto na Índia. Com o auxílio do sumo sacerdote de um templo hindu, ele decifrou as tábuas. Durante cinqüenta anos de pesquisa, confirmou o conteúdo em obras subseqüentes, inscrições e lendas que veio a encontrar no sudeste da Ásia, em Yucatán, na América Central, nas ilhas do Pacífico, no México, na América do Norte, no antigo Egito e em outras civilizações. Ele estima que Um tenha sido destruída aproximadamente há doze mil anos, devido a um colapso nas câmaras de gás que sustentavam o continente.

A cultura da Mãe

O culto à Mãe, destinado a se destacar no século vinte, foi o fundamento da civilização da Lemúria - aquele continente perdido que afundou sob o Oceano Pacífico há muitos milhares de anos atrás. A evolução da vida na Pátria e em suas colônias representou o impulso inicial do Espírito para a Matéria neste planeta. Aqui, onde as raças raiz completaram os ciclos de seu plano divino durante não uma, mas várias eras de ouro que atingiram seu ápice antes da Queda do homem, o raio masculino (as espirais descendentes do Espírito) foram realizadas através do raio feminino (as espirais ascendentes da matéria) no mundo da forma.

In the main temple of Mu, the flame of the Divine Mother was enshrined as the coordinate of the flame of the Divine Father focused in the Golden City of the Sun. Perpetuating the ancient rituals of invocation to the Logos and intonation of sacred sounds and mantras of the Word, priests and priestesses of the sacred fire held the balance of cosmic forces on behalf of the lifewaves of the planet. Throughout the far-flung colonies of Mu, replicas of the temple and its flame-focus were established as shrines of the Virgin consciousness, thereby creating between the earth and the sun an arc of light, anchored in the flame below and the flame above, which conveyed the energies of the Logos necessary for the precipitation of form and substance in the planes of Matter.

Far beyond our own meager accomplishments, the great advances in technology made during centuries of continuous culture on Mu were brought forth through a universal at-one-ment with the Divine Mother, whose consciousness embraces the laws governing all manifestation in the earth plane. The accomplishments in every field of endeavor of a people dedicated to the plan of God revealed through his All-Seeing Eye show to what heights a civilization can rise when the Mother flame is honored and adored in every heart and guarded and expanded in shrines dedicated to her name. And it becomes clear that man’s fall from grace was, in actuality, the result of his falling away from the cult of the Mother and his misuse of the energies of the seed atom focused in the base-of-the-spine chakra, which establishes the light of the Mother flame in the physical body.

The Fall of man on Lemuria

The fall of Mu, then, was the direct result of the Fall of man, which reached its lowest point in the desecration of the shrines to the Cosmic Virgin. This came about gradually through compromise with Principle, separation from the Holy Ghost, and the loss of vision that inevitably results therefrom. Blinded by ambition and self-love, priests and priestesses no longer tended the flames; forsaking their vows, they abandoned the practice of those sacred rituals that had remained unbroken for thousands of years—even as the holy angels keep perpetual watch over the unfed flame that burns upon the altar of the Most High God.

The worship of the Moon Mother, the Great Whore mentioned in the Book of Revelation,[1] replaced the worship of the Sun Mother, the Woman whom John saw “clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars.”[2] A black crystal set in lead and stone became the focus for the perversion of the Mother ray and the symbol of the new religion. One by one the inner circles of the temple orders were violated through the diabolical practice of black magic and phallic worship taught by the Luciferians, until a completely false theology wiped out the pristine patterns of the Mother Cult.

Life on the continent of Mu was further corrupted by aliens and fallen angels with their grotesque genetic miscreations, mocking the Godhead and violating the sacred science of the Mother by engaging men in wars of the gods.

The sinking of Lemuria

By and by the early rumblings of cataclysm were heard by the inhabitants of Mu. The altars of the most remote colonies were the first to topple. When the last strongholds—the twelve temples surrounding the main temple—were taken over by the Satanists, the momentum of light invoked by the remnant of the faithful was not great enough to hold the balance for the continent.

Thus Mu finally sank by the sheer weight of Darkness that her children had invoked—and which, because their deeds were evil, they had come to love more than the Light. She went down in a horrendous mass of volcanic fire and exploding lava, and the flame focuses that had sustained a mighty people and a mighty civilization were no more. What had taken hundreds of thousands of years to build up was torn down in a cosmic interval—the achievements of an entire civilization lost in oblivion, the spiritual-material evolution of man stripped from his outer memory!

The loss of the Mother flame

Devastating though that cataclysm was for millions of souls, of far greater consequence was the destruction of the focus of the Mother flame that had blazed on the altar of the main temple—a life-giving fire, the insignia of each man’s Divinity made manifest as Above, so below. Alas, the torch that had been passed was let fall to the ground. The strategies of the fallen ones, who had worked night and day with a fanatical zeal, were successful in accomplishing their end: the Mother flame was extinguished on the physical plane.

For a time it looked as though the Darkness had completely enveloped the Light. Beholding the defection of the race, cosmic councils voted to dissolve the planet whose people had forsaken their God; and this would have been its fate had Sanat Kumara not interceded, offering to exile himself from Hesperus (Venus) in order to keep the flame on behalf of mankind and hold the balance of the Light for Terra until such time as mankind should return to the pure and undefiled religion[3] of their ancient forebears.

Although the physical focus of the Mother flame was lost when Mu went down, the feminine ray has been enshrined on the etheric plane by the God and Goddess Meru in their temple at Lake Titicaca.

Paradise lost

The souls who perished with the Motherland reembodied upon a naked earth. Their paradise lost, they roamed the sands whose atoms were etched with the edict of the LORD God “Cursed is the ground for thy sake....”[4] Having no recall of their former estate and no tie thereto—for they lacked the Flame—they reverted to a primitive existence. Through disobedience to the laws of God, they forfeited their self-mastery, their right to dominion, and their knowledge of the I AM Presence. Their threefold flame was reduced to a mere flicker and the lights in their body temples went out.[5]

Man, no longer found in the image of the Christ, became one of the species (Homo sapiens), an animal among other animals, his God-potential sealed for a thousand days of cosmic history. Thus began the tortuous trek of evolution that has brought civilization to its present level and which is intended to culminate in a golden age of Christ-mastery and full God-realization.
