My Original Thesis…will put you to sleep
The purpose of this research is to provide an explanation of why people living around Mt. Shasta maintain a mythology explaining the origin and purpose of humankind connected to Atlantis and Lemuria. Accounts are based in historical and occult materials, personal narratives of transformative experiences and paranormal phenomena.
It is not the purpose of this paper to determine if the Lemurian Fellowship, I AM Movement, Rosicrucians, Theosophists and Brotherhood of the White Temple Church are part of a cult network. Ethnographic research was conducted in August in Mount Shasta and surrounding areas of Weed, Dunsmuir and McCloud with those identified as participants in groups that support the belief of Atlantis and Lemuria.
The results are that people in this area accommodate a worldview that is not based on the rationalism as outlined during the Enlightenment era. Myths construct part of a worldview that differs from the dominant culture.
