104a. Reading the Pictures of the Apocalypse: Part I. Lecture III 08 May 1907, Munich
Translated by James H. Hindes

We are now living in the age of cultural epochs. Atlantis was the age in which seven great races developed one after another. Of course, the fruits of this race development extend into our epoch, and for this reason races are still spoken of today, but they are really mixtures and are quite unlike those distinct races of the Atlantean epoch.
123. The Gospel of St. Matthew (1946): Jesus ben Pandira and Initiation among the Essenes 05 Sep 1910, Bern
Translator Unknown

Abraham having been selected for his great mission, the Spirit that had been recognized in early Atlantis as the Spirit who moved and lived in all the surrounding world had to enter into his inner organism.
125. Vital Questions in the Light of Reincarnation and Karma 26 Nov 1910, Bremen

If we go back still further—back through the post-Atlantean cultures, back to old Atlantis, and still further back—we come to an incarnation in which we came down into a physical body for the first time.
113. The East in the Light of the West: Evolutionary Stages: Saturn, Sun, Moon, Earth 26 Aug 1909, Munich
Translated by Dorothy S. Osmond, Shirley M. K. Gandell

This is an approximate and broad sketch of evolution from the so-called Lemurian epoch on into that of Atlantis. It was during the Atlantean epoch that, very slowly and gradually, the Earth began to wear an appearance more or less similar to that which we see around us today.
97. The Christian Mystery (2000): The Yoga Path, Christian Gnostic Initiation and Esoteric Rosicrucianism 30 Nov 1906, Cologne
Translated by Anna R. Meuss

It is the sign of Cancer in the zodiac. When ancient Atlantis had perished and the post-Atlantean period began, with the ancient Indian race, the sun rose in the sign of Cancer at the beginning of spring.

Translated by Dorothy Lenn, Owen Barfield

105. Universe, Earth and Man: Lecture VI 10 Aug 1908, Stuttgart
Translated by Harry Collison

If you go back to a time long before the great catastrophe swept Atlantis away we find our ancestors in a condition very different from our own. It was only about the middle of the Atlantean epoch that man received a form essentially the same as he has today.
107. History of the Physical Plane and Occult History 23 Oct 1908, Berlin
Translator Unknown

The difference between that life and this was not the same as today. When the man of Atlantis died, what happened to his soul? It passed over into a condition in which it felt itself absolutely one with a spiritual world, in a world of higher individualities.
99. Theosophy of the Rosicrucian: The Future of Man 05 Jun 1907, Munich
Translated by Mabel Cotterell, Dorothy S. Osmond

And the more we acknowledge this, the more rapidly do we approach the future form of humanity in the Sixth Age. As at that time in ancient Atlantis, in the neighbourhood of modern Ireland, the advanced human beings were drawn to the East in order to found the new civilisations, so have we now the task of working towards the great moment in the Sixth Age, when humanity will undertake a great spiritual ascent.
