The story

The first ones had no name

The first ones had no name

Chapter 1

The first ones had no name

The Anunnaki came first, but they didn't stay. Earth's own first civilization rose even before Lemuria, which is about 500,000 years old. We just call them pre-Lemurians.

Chapter 2

Copying the stars

Early humans were in touch with star peoples, and they modeled their own civilizations on them. Faded memories of those days survive in names like Shambhala, Mu and Atlantis.

Chapter 3

When the Gobi was green

Today the Gobi is a desert. Back then it was a lush paradise, home to Shambhala. It was a school for the spirit, where people meditated and learned.

Chapter 4

Shambhala never left

Shambhala didn't vanish. It moved to another frequency, a reality right beside ours. From there it sends caring energy, to help people find their own inner light.

“They have always been helping.”

Chapter 5

Under sand and ice

In the Himalayas, a great civilization called Dowi lies mostly buried under sand. Antarctica had a civilization before the ice. So did South America's high plateaus.

Chapter 6

They made it to space

Some of these ancient peoples learned to fly in space. Now and then they still come back, to peek at what their old home planet has become.
