For someone wounded perhaps a bit too much by the human all too human, modern, superflously unfounded and semi-automatic “skepsis” in his mentation (which Nietszche so beautifully already derailed a century ago), the author has, nonetheless, a good heart and fairly open mind one will see when reading this work of his (regardless what was automatically imbibed by him from being born when and where he was).
If he didn’t start from such limitations of conception (which Buddha centrally said he came to transform) he would have found more as he jetted around the globe...looking for?
While I appreciate people’s love for more materialized and not always just testimonial “facts;” You have to find the right testimonies first usually in searches or you can’t even begin aright. It saves time from going in circles. Only then will you find all material data confirming what many ancients already knew if what they say is so - or not if not. As a journalist you would think he would have known this. He needed the full map before compassing about.
So he approached this search very much cart before the horse prematurely and found little for he started in his understanding inside himself with little overall conception, far from the vast fullness; and so, little materiality could do for him in light of that.
He just didn’t know that over 20 writings in each of all 12 of the main cultures’ lore collections around the globe speak fairly extensively on Lemuria (or “Patala that became Atalas”).
There are a few bits and pieces found in his searches to be commended though. And it is good that he tried.
