Guest guest Posted August 21, 2001 Report Share Posted August 21, 2001 List Members, What I always liked about the book The Hollow Earth were the two chapters which brought together the Arctic evidence from the previous books of Reed and Gardner. I always had doubts about the latter half of the book where the author talks about the nature of the underground worlds. One impression that I had was that the author confused the hollow portion, the cavity, with the inner shell. But I have recently gone back and I am finding several things which correspond very well to other accounts. For example, in the chapter on Agharta, the author does differentiate between the cavity and the cavern worlds of the inner shell, althought he seems to run the Buddhist concept of the kingdom of Agharta all through the cavern worlds. That, I believe, is beyond his purview. Here is the pertinent part of that section: "The Empire of Agharta," wrote Ossendowski in his book "Beasts, Men and Gods,extends through subterranean tunnels to all parts of the world." In this book he speaks of a vast network of tunnels constructed by a prehistoric race of remotest antiquity, which passed under both oceans and continents, through which swift-moving vehicles traveled. The empire of which Ossendowski speaks and concerning which he learned about from lamas in the Far East, during his travels in Mongolia, obviously consists of subterranean cities inside the earth's crust, which should be differentiated from those existing in its hollow center. Thus there are two subterranean worlds, one more superficial and one in the center of the earth. Huguenin, whose book on flying saucers and the subterranean world we previously mentioned, believes that there exist many subterranean cities at various depths, between the earth's crust and its hollow interior. Concerning the inhabitants of these subterranean cities, he writes: "This other humanity has reached an elevated grade of civilization, economic and social organization and cultural and scientific progress, in comparison with which the humanity which lives on the earth's surface are a race of barbarians." In his book, Huguenin shows a diagram of the earth's interior, showing various subterranean cities at various depths, connected with each other by tunnels. He describes these cities as existing in immense cavities in the earth. The city of Shamballah, the capital of the subterranean empire, he portrays as existing at the center of the earth, in its hollow interior, rather than inside its solid crust. The whole Agharta chapter is right here: http://skywebsite.com/hollow/thehollowearth/id16.html Posted by Dharma/Dean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
