    Hollow Earth Theory

    As science and science fictionmerge, we unravel the ancient mysteries

    of the human experience. If indeed entitiesexist beneath the surface of the planet,

    they would not live in molten rock but inspace ships. And as the tectonic plates are

    breaking - it is either by their doing, a

    knowing that the consciousness hologramthat creates this reality is ending so they

    no longer have to monitor from below, orthey emerge as the plates naturally breakapart.

    Hollow Earth Theories always propose a central sun, aliens, and mythical subterranean cities and civilizations that

    some believe could link science and pseudoscience if physically discovered. Glaciers at both the Arctic and Antarcticregions are melting down at an accelerated rate, which will reveal the truth behind this mystery and its metaphoricconnections to other creation myths in the story of humanity's journey on planet Earth.

    According to the Hollow Earth Hypothesis, planet Earth is either wholly hollow or otherwise contains a substantial

    interior space. The hypothesis has long been contradictedby overwhelming observational evidence, as well as by the

    modern understanding of planet formation; the scientificcommunity has dismissed the notion since at least the late18th century.

    The concept of a hollow Earth still recurs infolklore and as the premise for a sub-genre of adventure

    fiction. It also features in some present-day

    pseudoscientific and conspiracy theories.Underground civilizations link with the 'Hollow

    Earth Theory'. There are supposedly races that exist in

    subterranean cities beneath planet Earth. Very often, these

    dwellers of the world beneath are more technologicallyadvanced than we on the surface. Some believe that UFOs are not from other planets, but are manufactured by strangebeings in the interior of the Earth.

    Conventional Hollow Earth Theories:

    Early History

    In ancient times, the idea of subterranean realms seemed arguable, and became intertwined with the concept of"places" such as the Greek Hades, the Nordic svartalfheim, the Christian Hell, and the Jewish Sheol (with details describing

    inner Earth in Kabalistic literature, such as the Zohar and Hesed L'Avraham).

    2 | P a g e

    Edmond Halley in 1692 put forth the idea of Earth consisting of a hollow shellabout 800 km (500 miles) thick, two inner concentric shells and an innermost core, about

    the diameters of the planets Venus, Mars, and Mercury. Atmospheres separate theseshells, and each shell has its own magnetic poles. The spheres rotate at different speeds.

    Halley proposed this scheme in order to explain anomalous compass readings. He

    envisaged the atmosphere inside as luminous (and possibly inhabited) and speculated thatescaping gas caused the Aurora Borealis.

    De Camp and Ley have claimed (in their Lands Beyond) that Leonhard Euler also

    proposed a hollow-Earth idea, getting rid of multiple shells and postulating an interior sun1000 km (600 miles) across to provide light to advanced inner-Earth civilization (but theyprovide no references). However in his Letters to a German princess Euler describes a

    thought experiment involving a patently solid Earth.De Camp and Ley also claim that Sir John Leslie expanded on Euler's idea,

    suggesting two central suns named Pluto and Proserpine (this was unrelated to the

    dwarf planet Pluto, which was discovered and named some time later). Leslie did proposea hollow Earth in his 1829Elements of Natural Philosophy(pp. 449453), but does not

    mention interior suns.

    19th century

    In 1818, John Cleves Symmes, Jr. suggested that the Earth consisted of a hollow shell about 1300 km (800 miles)thick, with openings about 2300 km (1400 miles) across at both poles with 4 inner shells each open at the poles. Symmes

    became the most famous of the early Hollow Earth proponents. He proposed making an expedition to the North Pole hole,

    thanks to efforts of one of his followers, James McBride, but the new President of the United States, Andrew Jackson,

    halted the attempt.Jeremiah Reynolds also delivered lectures on the "Hollow Earth" and argued for an expedition. Reynolds went on

    an expedition to Antarctica himself but missed joining the Great U.S. Exploring Expedition of 1838-1842, even though thatventure was a result of his agitation.Though Symmes himself never wrote a book about his ideas, several authors published works discussing his ideas.

    McBride wroteSymmes' Theory of Concentric Spheresin 1826. It appears that Reynolds has an article that appeared as a

    separate booklet in 1827: Remarks of Symmes' Theory Which Appeared in the American Quarterly Review.In 1868, a professor W.F. Lyons published The Hollow Globewhich put forth a Symmes-like Hollow Earth hypothesis,

    but didn't mention Symmes. Symmes's son Americus then published The Symmes' Theory of Concentric Spheresto set the

    record straight.

    Recent Theories

    The Thule Society, which was well known by Adolf Hitler,reported much about Tibetan myths of openings into theEarth. There is even a theory that Hitler ordered a research journey for such an opening in Antarctica, based on a speech

    of Admiral Donitz in front of a German submarine in 1944, when he claimed "The German submarine fleet is proud of having

    built an invisible fortification for the Fuhrer, anywhere in the world." During the Nuremberg Trials, Donitz spoke of "aninvisible fortification, in midst of the eternal ice."

    As the story goes, Hitler and his followers wanted to create a race of super soldiers; an Ayran race (like theAtlanteans) to rule the world. They came to this conclusion through the acceptance of many occult beliefs and practices,including the Hollow Earth Theory. There is a legend which says that Hitler and his chief advisers escaped the last days of

    the Third Reich by going through the opening at the South Pole (Antarctica) where they discovered an entrance to theEarth's interior.

    According to the Hollow Earth Research Society in Ontario, Canada, they are still there. After the war, theorganization claims, the Allies discovered that more than 2,000

    scientists from Germany and Italy had vanished, along with almost a

    million people, to the land beyond the South Pole. This story getsmore complicated with Nazi-designed UFOs, Nazi collaboration with

    the people who live in the center of the Earth, and the possible

    explanation for "Aryan-looking" UFO pilots.

    In 2005, Steven Currey Expeditions planned an expedition tothe North Pole region to explore for a possible opening into the inner

    Earth. Brooks A. Agnew took over as leader on Currey's death in 2006,

    with the plan of taking 100 scientists and film makers to the supposedArctic "opening" in 2009.

    An early twentieth-century proponent of hollow Earth,William Reed, wrote Phantom of the Poles in 1906. He supported the idea of a hollow Earth, but without interior shells or

    inner sun.Marshall Gardner wrote A Journey to the Earth's Interior in 1913 and an expanded edition in 1920. He placed an

    interior sun in the hollow Earth. He even built a working model of the hollow Earth and patented it. Gardner made no

    mention of Reed, but did take Symmes to task for his ideas. In the same time Vladimir Obruchev wrote a fiction novelPlutonia, where the hollow Earth's interior possessed one inner (central) sun and was inhabited by prehistoric species. The

    interior was connected with the surface by a hole in the Arctic.

    Other writers have proposed that ascended masters of esoteric wisdom inhabit subterranean caverns or a hollowEarth. Antarctica, the North Pole, Tibet, Peru, and Mount Shasta in California, USA, have all had their advocates as the

    locations of entrances to a subterranean realm referred to as Agartha, with some even advancing the hypothesis that UFOshave their homeland in these places.

    Raymond W. Bernard

    In 1964, Raymond W. Bernard, an esotericist and leader of the Rosicrucians published The Hollow Earth - The

    Greatest Geographical Discovery in History Made by Admiral Richard E. Byrd in the Mysterious Land Beyond the Poles - TheTrue Origin of the Flying Saucers. Bernard tells stories about people who have entered the inner earth and what has

    happened to them. It mentions a photograph published in 1960 in the Globe and Mail in Toronto, Canada which shows abeautiful valley with lush hills. An aviator claimed that he had taken the picture while flying into the North Pole.

    In his Letters from Nowhere, Bernard claims to have been in

    contact with great mystics in secret ashrams and with Grand Lamas in Tibet.

    He was, in short, another Gurdjieff. Dr. Bernard "died of pneumonia on

    September 10, 1965, while searching the tunnel openings to the interior ofthe Earth, in South America."

    Bernard seems to have accepted every legend ever associated

    with the hollow Earth idea, including the notions that the Eskimos originatedwithin the Earth and an advanced civilization dwells within even now, revving

    up their UFOs for occasional forays into thin air. Bernard even accepts

    without question Shaver's claim that he learned the secret of relativitybefore Einstein from the Hollow Earth people.

    The Adventures of Admiral Byrd

    Admiral Richard E. Byrd of the United

    States Navy flew to the North Pole in 1926 andover the South Pole in 1929. he referred to

    Antarctica as "The Land of Everlasting Mystery".In reference to the North Pole he wrote: "I'd liketo see that land beyond the North Pole, it is the

    Center of the Great Unknown."

    In his diary, Byrd allegedly tells of

    entering the hollow interior of the earth, alongwith others and traveling 17 miles over mountains,

    lakes, rivers, green vegetation, and animal life. He

    tells of seeing tremendous animals resemblingthe mammoths of antiquity moving through the

    brush. He eventually found cities and a thriving

    civilization. The external temperature was 74degrees F.

    His airplane was greeted by flying machines of a type he had never seen before. They escorted him to a safelanding area where he was graciously greeted by emissaries from Agartha. After resting, he and his crew were taken to

    meet the king and queen of Agartha. They told him that he had been allowed to enter Agartha because of his high moral andethical character. They went on to say that they worried about the safety of planet due to the bombs and other testing done

    above the surface by governments. After the visit Byrd and his crew were guided back to the surface of the planet.

    Byrd stated that the North and South Poles are only two of many openings into the center of the Earth. He also

    wrote about seeing a sun below the Earth.

    Concave Hollow Earths

    Humans live on the interior; with the universe in the center.

    Instead of saying that humans live on the outside surface of a hollow planet, sometimes called a "convex" hollow-

    Earth hypothesis, some have claimed that our universe itself lies in the interior of a hollow world, calling this a "concave"hollow-Earth hypothesis. The surface of the Earth, according to such a view, might resemble the interior shell of a Dyson

    sphere. Generally, scientists have taken neither type of speculation seriously.

    Cyrus Teed, an eccentric doctor from upstate New York, proposed

    such a concave hollow Earth in 1869, calling his scheme "Cellular Cosmogony".

    Teed founded a cult called the Koreshan Unity based on this notion, which he

    called Koreshanity. The main colony survives as a preserved Florida statehistoric site, at Estero, but all of Teed's followers have now died. Teed'sfollowers claimed to have experimentally verified the concavity of the Earth's

    curvature, through surveys of the Florida coastline making use of"rectilineator" equipment.

    Several twentieth-century German writers, including Peter Bender,

    Johannes Lang, Karl Neupert, and Fritz Braun, published works advocating thehollow Earth hypothesis, or Hohlweltlehre. It has even been reported, although

    apparently without historical documentation, that Adolf Hitler was influencedby concave hollow-Earth ideas and sent an expedition in an unsuccessful

    attempt to spy on the British fleet by aiming infrared cameras up into thesky (Wagner, 1999).

    The Egyptian mathematician Mostafa Abdelkader authored several

    scholarly papers working out a detailed mapping of the concave Earth model.See M. Abdelkader, "A Geocosmos: Mapping Outer Space Into a Hollow

    Earth," 6 Speculations in Science & Technology 81-89 (1983). Abstracts of

    two of Abdelkader's papers also appeared in Notices of the American

    Mathematical Society, (Oct. 1981 and Feb. 1982).In one chapter of his book On the Wild Side (1992), Martin Gardner

    discusses the hollow Earth model articulated by Abdelkader. According to Gardner, this hypothesis posits that light rays

    travel in circular paths, and slow as they approach the center of the spherical star-filled cavern. No energy can reach thecenter of the cavern, which corresponds to no point a finite distance away from Earth in the widely accepted scientific

    cosmology.A drill, Gardner says, would lengthen as it traveled away from the cavern and eventually pass through the "point

    at infinity" corresponding to the center of the Earth in the widely accepted scientific cosmology. Supposedly no experimentcan distinguish between the two cosmologies. Martin Gardner notes that "most mathematicians believe that an inside-out

    universe, with properly adjusted physical laws, is empirically irrefutable". Gardner rejects the concave hollow Earth

    hypothesis on the basis of Occam's Razor.In a trivial sense, one can always define a coordinate transformation such that the interior of the Earth becomes

    "exterior" and the exterior becomes "interior". Such transformations would require corresponding changes to the forms of

    physical laws; the consensus suggests that such theories tend towards sophism.

    Contrary Evidence:

    Gravity

    The best scientific argument against that of a hollow Earth (or in fact any hollow planet) is gravity. Massive

    objects tend to clump together gravitationally; creating non-hollow spherical objects we call stars and planets. The solid

    sphere is the best way in which to minimize the gravitational potential energy of a physical object; having hollowness is

    therefore unfavorable in the energetic sense. In addition, ordinary matter is not strong enough to support a hollow shape ofplanetary size against the force of gravity.

    Someone on the inside of a hollow Earth would not experience an outward pull and could not stand on the inner

    surface; rather, the theory of gravity implies that a person on the inside would be nearly weightless. This was first shownby Newton, whose shell theorem mathematically predicts a gravitational force (from the shell) of zero everywhere inside a

    spherically symmetric hollow shell of matter, regardless of the shell's thickness.

    A tiny gravitational force would arise from the fact that the Earth does not have a perfectly symmetrical sphericalshape, as well as forces from other bodies such as the Moon. The centrifugal force from the Earth's rotation would pull a

    person (on the inner surface) outwards if the person was traveling at the same velocity as the Earth's interior and was incontact with the ground on the interior, but even at the equator this is only 1/300 of ordinary Earth gravity.

    The mass of the planet also indicates that the hollow Earth hypothesis is unfeasible. Should the Earth be largely

    hollow, its mass would be much lower and thus its gravity on the outer surface would be much lower than it currently is.

    Seismic Information

    Although not visually observable, the core of the Earth is observable via vibrations (primarily from earthquakes)

    passing from one side of the planet to the other. Using this method, geologists have been able to establish the structure ofmantle, outer core, and inner core known today. A hollow earth would behave entirely differently in terms of seismic

    observations.

    Visual Evidence

    The deepest hole drilled to date is the SG-3 borehole which is 12.3 km (7.6 miles) deep, part of the Soviet Kola

    Superdeep Borehole project; thus, visual knowledge of the Earth's structure extends that far.

    Hollow Earths in Fiction

    The idea of a hollow Earth is a very common element of fiction, appearing as early as Ludvig Holberg's 1741 novelNicolai Klimii iter subterraneum (Niels Klim's Underground Travels), in which Nicolai Klim falls through a cave while

    spelunking and spends several years living on both a smaller globe within and the inside of the outer shell. Other pre-20th century examples include Giacomo Casanova's 1788 Icosameron, a 5-volume, 1,800-page story of a

    brother and sister who fall into the Earth and discover the subterranean utopia of the Megamicres, a race of multicolored,hermaphroditic dwarfs; Symzonia: A Voyage of Discovery by a "Captain Adam Seaborn" (1820) which reflected the ideas of

    John Cleves Symmes, Jr. and some have claimed Symmes as the real author; Edgar Allan Poe's 1838 novel The Narrative of

    Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket; and George Sand's 1884 novel Laura, Voyage dans le Cristal where unseen andgiant crystals could be found in the interior of the Earth.

    More recently, the idea has become a staple of science fiction, appearing in print, in film, on television, in comics,

    role-playing games, and in many animated works.The idea as also used by Edgar Rice Burroughs, the creator of Tarzan, in a series of novels beginning with "At the

    Earth's Core" (1914). Using a mechanical drill, his heroes discover a prehistoric world 500 miles below the surface. Lit byan inner sun, this inner earth is called "Pellucidar" due to the constant light of the unsetting inner sun. There is also an

    inner moon which creates a "Land of the Dreadful Shadow" by blocking the light of the inner sun for a portion of Pellucidar.

    Burroughs also makes use of the idea of openings at the poles, and has zeppelins travel to the interior of the earth viathese openings. There are seven novels in the "Pellucidar"series.

    The Elder Race - The Shaver Mystery

    One of the most controversial tales of inner-Earth-dwellers is the so-called Shaver Mystery. In 1945, Amazing

    Stories magazine, under the editorship of Ray Palmer, ran a story told by American writer and artist Richard Shaver, whoclaimed he had recently been the guest of what remained of an giant race called the Elder Race, or Titans, an undergroundcivilization that lived in caverns under the earth.

    Shaver contended that the Elder Superior Pre-historic Race came to this planet from another solar system in our

    prehistoric past. After a time of living on the surface, they realized our sun was causing them to age prematurely, so theyescaped underground, building huge subterranean complexes in which to live. Eventually, they decided to seek a new home

    on a new planet, evacuating the Earth and leaving behind their underground cities - a honeycomb of caves in the Earth -

    populated by artificial beings: the evil Dero, detrimental robots and the good Tero, integrated robots. Shaver claimed tohave met the Tero.

    According to Shaver, the Dero, live there still, using the fantastic machines abandoned by the ancient races totorment those of us living on the surface. As one characteristic of this torment, Shaver described "voices" that purportedly

    came from no explainable source. Thousands of readers wrote to affirm that they, too, had heard the fiendish voices from

    inside the Earth.Despite the enormous popularity of the "Shaver Mystery in Amazing Stories", Palmer milked it for all it was worth,

    and more. The location of the entrance to this underground world was never divulged. Although few really believed the

    story, and many suspect that Shaver may actually have been psychotic, Shaver always averred that his story was true.

    Agartha:

    Agartha (sometimes Agartta, Agharti or Agarttha) is a legendary city that is said to reside in the Earth's core. It is

    related to the Hollow Earth theory and is a popular subject in Esotericism. Agartha is one of the most common names citedfor the society of underground dwellers. Shamballa (also known as Shambalah or Shangri-La) is sometimes said to be its

    capital city.The mythical paradise of Shamballa is known under many different names: It has been called the Forbidden Land,the Land of White Waters, the Land of Radiant Spirits, the Land of Living Fire, the Land of the Living Gods and the Land of

    Wonders. Hindus have known it as Aryavartha (literally : The Land or Realm of The Aryans ; the Land of the Noble/WorthyOnes") - the land from which the Vedas come; the Chinese as Hsi Tien, the Western Paradise of Hsi Wang Mu, the Royal

    Mother of the West; the Russian Old Believers, a nineteenth-century Christian sect, knew it as Belovodye and the Kirghizpeople as Janaidar. But throughout Asia it is best known by its Sanskrit name, Shambhala, meaning 'the place of peace, oftranquillity.'

    While once a popular concept, in the last century little serious attention has been paid to these conjectures (withthe possibly apocryphal exception of Adolf Hitler), and the theory is not supported by modern science. The idea of

    subterranean worlds may have been inspired by ancient religious beliefs in Hades, Sheol, and Hell. Ferdynand Antoni

    Ossendowski's 1920 book Beasts, Men, and Gods also discusses Agartha. The myth of "Agartha" is also known as"Shambhala", as it was known in India, the underworld realm peopled by initiates and lead by 'the Masters", Masters who

    are the Spiritual leaders of humanity.

    Agartha is the great Asian University of the Initiates of the Greater Mysteries. Their 'Mahatma' ('Great Soul'), Who

    is also known as " The Lord of The World " , plays the part of the supreme spiritual leader of humanity.According to Alexandre Saint-Yves d'Alveydre (1842-1909) of France, the secret world of "Agartha" and all of its

    wisdom and wealth "will be accessible for all mankind, when Christianity lives up to the commandments which were once

    drafted by Moses and Jesus, meaning 'When the Anarchy which exists in our world is replaced by the Synarchy". Saint-Yvesgives a 'lively' description of "Agartha" in this book as if it were a place which really exists, situated in the Himalayas in

    Tibet. Saint-Yves' version of the history of "Agartha" is based upon ' revealed' information, meaning received by Saint-Yveshimself through 'attunement'. Saint-Yves d'Alveydre created the Archaeometre.

    Shambhala concept figures prominently in Vajrayana Buddhism and Tibetan Kalachakra teachings and revived inthe West by Blavatsky and Theosophical Society. As with many concepts in Vajrayana Buddhism, the idea of Shambhala issaid to have an 'outer,' 'inner,' and 'secret' meaning.

    The outer meaning understands Shambhala to exist as a physical place, although only individuals with theappropriate karma can reach it and experience it as such. There are various ideas about where this society is located, but

    it is often placed in central Asia, north of Tibet. The inner and secret meanings refer to more subtle understandings of what

    Shambhala represents, and are generally passed on orally. Alice Bailey transformed it into a kind of extradimensional orspiritual reality. The Roerichs see its existence as both spiritual and physical.

    The Hollow Earth or hollow planet theory is also supported by superconscious knowledge based channeledsources of universal nature like Seth channeled by Jane Roberts, Ramtha by J.Z. Knight and Datre by Aona.

    Other Theories

    An early source for the belief in underground civilizations is The Smoky God(1908) by Willis George Emerson (1856- 1918), which claims to be the biography of a Norwegian sailor named Olaf Jansen. The book explains how Jansen's sloop

    sailed through an entrance to the Earth's interior at the North Pole. For two years he lived with the inhabitants of an

    underground network of colonies who, Emerson writes, were a full 12 feet tall and whose world was lit by a "smoky" centralsun. Their capital city was said to be the original Garden of Eden. While Emerson does not use the name Agartha, later

    works such as Agartha - Secrets of the Subterranean Cities have identified the civilization Jansen encountered withAgartha, and its citizens as Agarthan.

    According toSecrets, Shamballa the Lesser, one of the colonies, was also the seat of government for the network.WhileShamballathe Lesser is an inner continent, its satellite colonies are smaller enclosed ecosystems located just beneath

    the Earth's crust or discreetly within mountains. Cataclysms and wars taking place on the surface drove these people

    underground. These were said to include a lengthy Atlantean-Lemurian war and the use of thermonuclear weaponry that

    eventually sank and destroyed these two highly advanced civilizations. The Sahara, Gobi, the Australian Outback and thedeserts of the southwestern U.S. are said to be but a few examples of the devastation that resulted. The sub-cities were

    created as refuges for the people and as safe havens for sacred records, teachings and technologies that were cherishedby these ancient cultures.

    It is believed that the great kingdom of Lemuriawhich was located in the Gobi desert in Mongolia was destroyed

    byAtlantis in a great war that led to a cataclysmic destruction of Atlantis and Mu. Mu was a great city on the surface of

    what is now the Gobi desert. It had 2 satellite cities by the name of Agartha Alpha and Beta that survived the destruction.The inhabitants of Agartha are said to have scientific knowledge and expertise far beyond that of the people who

    live on the surface of the planet, lost technology from the days of Atlantis.

    The descendants of ancient Lemuria now live in peace in subterranean caverns. The leaders of these states(variously calledAscended Masters, Guardians of the Tradition, Psychoteleios or "the perfected ones", the the Shining Ones,

    the Ancients, the Watchers, the Immortals, the Monitors, the Hidden Directorate, the Children of Seth, etc.) all follow what isknown as the Ancient Path and do not interfere in the lives of humans that live above the surface. Nor is there anyinteraction between them.

    There are no entrances to Agartha Alpha and Beta from any other part of the planet. The only entrances are in theGobi desert itself and are secured by illusory technology that is beyond the comprehension of modern science.

    The Tibetans refer to the cities of Agartha as Shambala and have believed for centuries in their existence asreservoirs of ancient knowledge and advanced technology.

    Tibet

    In Tibet, there is a major mystical shrine also called 'Patala,' which is said by the people there to sit atop anancient cavern and tunnel system, which reaches throughout the Asian continent and possibly beyond. The Nagas also havean affinity with water, and the entrances to their underground palaces are often said to be hidden at the bottom of wells,

    deep lakes and rivers."

    Inhabitants

    The Old Ones - In an article entitled

    "The Hollow Earth: Myth or Reality" for AtlantisRising, Brad Steiger writes of the legends of

    "the Old Ones," an ancient race that populatedthe surface world millions of years ago andthen moved underground. "The Old Ones, an immensely intelligent and scientifically advanced race," Steiger writes, "have

    chosen to structure their own environment under the surface of the planet and manufacture all their necessities."

    "The Old Ones are hominid, extremely long-lived, and pre-date Homo sapiens by more than a million years. The Old

    Ones generally remain aloof from the surface peoples, but from time to time, they have been known to offer constructivecriticism; and it has been said, they often kidnap human children to tutor and rear as their own."

    Buddhist Theory

    It is believed to be a race of supermen and superwomen who occasionally come to the surface to oversee the

    development of the human race. It is also believed that this subterranean world has millions of inhabitants and many cities,its capital being Shambala.

    Ancient philosophy states that Agartha was first colonized thousands of years ago when a holy man lead a tribe to

    the underground. The people have scientific knowledge and expertice far beyond that of the people who live on the surfaceof the planet.

    Hindu

    The Ramayanaone of the most famous texts of India tells the story of the great avatar, Rama. It describes Rama as "an

    emissary from Agartha" who arrived on a Vimana. In India there is an ancient belief, still held by some, in a subterranean

    race of serpent people who dwell in the cities Patala and Bhogavati. According to the legend, they wage war on the kingdomof Agharta. "The Nagas," according to "The Deep Dwellers," "are described as a very advanced race or species, with a
