89. Awareness—Life—Form: The Logoi 02 Jul 1904, Berlin
Translated by Anna R. Meuss

Rudolf Steiner
Biblical name of manu, one of the highest initiates on Earth. In ancient Atlantis leader of the Sun oracle and founder of post- Atlantean civilization. See lectures given in Berlin on 15 February 1909 and Munich on 7 March 1909 in The Principle of Spiritual Economy GA 109, tr.
254. The Occult Movement in the Nineteenth Century: Lecture II 11 Oct 1915, Dornach
Translated by Dorothy S. Osmond

Rudolf Steiner
In that periodical I had published articles dealing with the problem of Atlantis and the character of the Atlantean epoch. These articles were afterwards published as a separate volume entitled Unsere atlantischen Vorfahren (Our Atlantean Forefathers).
A member highly respected in the Theosophical Society had read these articles dealing with Atlantis, and asked me a question. And it is this question which I want to mention as a noteworthy experience in connection with what was said in the lecture yesterday.
All communications received by that Society from the spiritual world—including for example, those given in Scott-Elliot's book on Atlantis—came entirely in the way described, because that alone was considered authoritative and objective.
93. The Temple Legend: Atoms and the Logos in the Light of Occultism 21 Oct 1905, Berlin
Translated by John M. Wood

Rudolf Steiner
Spiritual science, on the other hand, puts the commencement of the Ice Age into the middle of Atlantis—‘The cosmos became calculable for the first time around 13,500 B.C. At that time most of Atlantis was already submerged’ (Blavatsky).
97. The Christian Mystery (2000): The Secret of the Grail in the Works of Richard Wagner 29 Jul 1906, Landin
Translated by Anna R. Meuss

Rudolf Steiner
This was a very long time ago. There was a time when Atlantis existed in a region that is now part of the Atlantic Ocean. Our far distant ancestors, the Atlanteans, lived there. The whole population of Europe and Asia, all the way to India, were descendants of the Atlanteans. Conditions of life on Atlantis were very different from those in which people lived later on. Atlanteans lived in a completely hierarchic system guided by such initiates.
106. Egyptian Myths and Mysteries: The Experiences of Initiation. The Mysteries of the Planets. 05 Sep 1908, Leipzig
Translated by Norman MacBeth

Rudolf Steiner
The Egyptian physician knew one thing—that the conditions that prevailed in ancient Atlantis, and that could still be perceived in initiation, could in a certain sense be reawakened. The consciousness in which man lived in Atlantis was a dim clairvoyant consciousness.
98. Nature and Spirit Beings — Their Effects in Our Visible World: Whitsuntide: Collective Spiritual Striving and Working toward Spiritualisation of the World I 07 Jun 1908, Cologne
Translated by Antje Heymanns

Rudolf Steiner
Let us follow backwards the evolution of mankind up to ancient Atlantis. In former times man lived in the old Atlantis, a continent that is now covered by the Atlantic Ocean.
34. From the Contents of Esoteric Classes III: 1913–1914: The Theosophical Congress in London

92. Richard Wagner in the Light of Anthroposophy: Lecture Two 05 May 1905, Berlin
Translator Unknown

Rudolf Steiner
The soul is referred to as water; possession, implying power, is still guarded by the surging astral forces, by the Daughters of the Rhine. The Ego, or egoism coming out of Atlantis is gradually prepared. But this human being who was originally a soul-being possessed something which he must renounce: it is love, which does not, as yet seek another being outside, but finds its satisfaction within itself.

265. The History of the Esoteric School 1904–1914, Volume Two: Preparatory Lesson I 07 May 1912, Cologne

Rudolf Steiner
1 But the higher powers were always active on the physical plane as well, in order to let spiritual forces flow into human life, especially in the mysteries. One could go back to Atlantis in this regard, but let us talk about the post-Atlantean mysteries. Pupils were drawn to them so that they could be gradually introduced to the secrets of the universe and the development of humanity.
