Work, In the Curtain of Time, by Edgard Armond

The first human groupings appeared in two continents that existed millenniums and disappeared, namely:

- Lemuria, in the south of the Asia, where the Third Race existed, being the first to inhabit the Earth;

- And Atlantis, situated in the Atlantic Ocean, between Europe, Africa and current America, where the Fourth Race existed.

The men of the Atlantis civilization adored the Sun and the stars, the animals and nature in all its manifestations, forming a polytheistic culture, which the Spiritual Protectors of the Race tolerated until some limits, although existed already, in the sanctuaries and in the temples, priestly organizations which paid cult to a God Only - Atman, the Great Spirit -, consequence of the work of the Missionaries which incarnated twice there.

The Atlantis multiplied forming a community of powerful nations and established colonies, above all in the east, which ones, after the disappearance of the continent, developed and expanded themselves with refugees' afflux, at the zone of the current Mediterranean, in the north of Africa and in the south of Europe, forming the cores of several antique groups which ones, later, mixed with the Greeks, generating the root of Europe's current formation, giving the ethnological roots to Barbarians, Tuaregs, Libyan, Nubians and Ethiopians.

In the last periods of the Great Atlantis, the utilization of the spiritual knowledge’s degenerated in such a form, that the belief in a God only stayed blurred by the practices of the black art, by the cult of the mythological gods and by the order interests purely in the material matters.

No attitude or decision took place without priests' previous audience, magicians, fortune-tellers, and sorcerers.

The hatreds and the ambitions where multiplied by the use of the powers of the darkness; murders, personal revenges and endless disputes among families and tribes occurred everywhere.

And finally the peoples of several provinces had begun to annihilate themselves in extermination wars, by influence of these terrible and annihilating powers which aimed, as usual, to divert the men of the straight ways of the spiritual evolution.

The priests of the Supreme God, in the silence of their sumptuous temples, tried impotently to impose new directions to the multitudes and many of them were even, together with these corruption forces.

They were the legitimate and spiritual guides of these people which, blindly, always had obeyed them. But, when they allowed the dominance by these forces, they started to compete with themselves, for the possession of greater powers and thus delivered themselves definitively to the handcuffs of the darkness.
