106. Egyptian Myths and Mysteries: The Ancient Egyptian Doctrine of Evolution 13 Sep 1908, Leipzig
Translated by Norman MacBeth

The forms in Lemuria were different from those in Atlantis. In those times beings went through much more rapid changes than they do now. In addition, these forms were still filled with spirit.
99. Theosophy of the Rosicrucian: The Nature of Initiation 06 Jun 1907, Munich
Translated by Mabel Cotterell, Dorothy S. Osmond

It has been said that the inhabitants of old Atlantis could perceive wisdom in all that surrounded them. The further we go back into the far past, the more we find states of consciousness through which men were able to perceive the creative powers which pervade the world, the spiritual beings which surround us.
101. Myths and Legends, Occult Signs and Symbols: Norse and Persian Myths 14 Oct 1907, Berlin

We said that the part of the Germanic myth that we discussed then ties in with the exodus of the chosen few near present-day Ireland, which was once part of Atlantis, whose population had advanced in development and then moved east. What is called the more advanced race of the Atlanteans founded the eastern cultures.
102. The Influence of Spiritual Beings on Man: Lecture III 15 Feb 1908, Berlin
Translator Unknown

These teachers were beings of Venus and Mercury, and they went on working far beyond the Age of Atlantis. But they are not to be looked on as we look on our present teachers; the Venus beings must rather be thought of as those who endowed man with his intellectuality.
104. The Apocalypse of St. John: Lecture IV 21 Jun 1908, Nuremberg
Translated by Mabel Cotterell

A smaller part, living in a region near to our present Ireland, developed to the highest flower of the civilization of Atlantis and then journeyed towards the East. We must clearly understand that this was only the principal stream.
104. The Apocalypse of St. John: Lecture VII 24 Jun 1908, Nuremberg
Translated by Mabel Cotterell

Previously he was above in the spiritual world. In Atlantis he still had a dim clairvoyance. He now comes down and reaches the line during the period of the Roman Empire.
238. Karmic Relationships IV: Lecture VI 16 Sep 1924, Dornach
Translated by George Adams, Dorothy S. Osmond, Charles Davy

Then I returned to the book itself, Schelling's Ages of the World, which is indeed somewhat abstractly written, but in which one may clearly recognise something like a description of ancient Atlantis—quite a spiritual description, containing spiritual realities, however much distorted by abstractions.
238. Karmic Relationships IV: Lecture IX 21 Sep 1924, Dornach
Translated by George Adams, Dorothy S. Osmond, Charles Davy

During this journey he writes a wonderful little book, Über die letzten Dinge, containing descriptions of elemental Nature which seem almost like an attempt to caricature the descriptions of Atlantis, magnificent, but of course entirely mad from the standpoint of the psychiatrist. Yet these things must be considered karmically.
228. Man As A Picture of The Living Spirit 02 Sep 1923, London
Translated by George Adams

Only the most external and physical element remained behind when at a certain time of old Atlantis the great teachers of mankind migrated to the Moon, which had itself withdrawn from the Earth long before.
157. The Destinies of Individuals and of Nations: Lecture XI 20 Apr 1915, Berlin
