A WORD FROM THE PUBLISHER
“K
nowledge,” it has
been said “is
power.” We have
also heard that “a
little knowledge is a dangerous thing”
(emphasis on ‘little’). The important
question is, it seems to us: what is
knowledge anyway? Or—to take a cue
from neurotic contemporary
thought—does it even exist?
For many great and ancient spiri-
tual traditions, gnosis or knowledge
of some sort—self-knowing, truth-
knowing, love-knowing, etc.—is ‘a’
goal, if not ‘the’ goal, of the life. And
yet Western culture, it seems to us,
has come to question the very possi-
bility of knowing anything with cer-
tainty, least of all, the answers to ulti-
mate questions of truth—Who are
we?..Where did we come from?..What
James Dean in Rebel Without a Cause
is our purpose? etc. The issue, of
course, is not whether there is such a thing as truth, but rather—whatever it may be—how
capable are we of apprehending it. In fact, from Slaughterhouse Five to Clockwork Orange,
from Catcher in the Rye to Rebel Without a Cause, countless contemporary myths have
made disputing the capacity of humankind to understand truth into a kind of heroism.
From psychoanalysis to existentialism, from situation ethics to political correctness, the
main effect of today’s thought has been to undermine the authority that goes with true
knowledge. Hamlet-like we are left to wonder if we should ‘be’ or not ‘be.’
On such issues, science—at least the kind that dominates our civilization today—does
us little good. The best an honest empirical method can hope to achieve is an indication of
probabilities. Nowhere to be found in the halls of academia is pure knowing, the kind that
comes with what philosopher Theodore Roszak once called “rhapsodic declaration.” Present
in copious quantities, though, is despair.
When, a few centuries ago, we decided to free ourselves from the corrupt priesthood of
the dark ages and to turn to what we thought was a more enlightened way of deciding
things, we believed we were getting closer to true knowing. Ironically, what we got in the
bargain was ‘doubt,’ and to replace old superstitions came a new kind of fear. Instead of hell-
fire we got the void. It has taken a while for the full implications to sink in, but who can
question that a widespread hunger for certitude now threatens to overwhelm civilization.
Sadly, that unrequited longing has already taken many beyond the brink of madness and
into the abyss. And, into the knowledge vacuum created by our corrupt scientific priesthood
has rushed a multitude of false priests and charlatans promising the true wine of spiritual
knowledge but delivering—from genocide to jihad—a plethora of poisons instead. Whether
Adolph Hitler or Osama Bin Laden, the pied pipers of hell, by exploiting the legitimate
human desire for ultimate answers, have continued to ensnare the unwary masses.
Notwithstanding such bitter facts, though, we at Atlantis Rising do not believe that the
quest for truth can or should ever be abandoned. Far from it. We do suggest, however, that
the goal be pursued more sanely, wisely, and less fanatically.
For those lost in the meaningless sea of contemporary life who yet seek to navigate past
the pirate coves and into the safe harbor of true gnosis, it is worth remembering that
anyone claiming special knowledge of such things, and seeking the authority that goes with
it, is subject to challenge and to being required, among other things, to show his real fruits.
Or, to put it another way when it comes to evaluating truth, the proof is in the pudding.
Nothing else has quite the flavor of the real thing.

CALLS FOR A NEW
ROSWELL PROBE
CASSINI DETECTS T he professional debunking class is more than a little exercised
these days. No matter how much they ridicule the opposition,
people keep disagreeing with them. Now, their official version of the
Roswell UFO crash episode has been challenged again, and, this
SATURN time, by a very influential public figure. New Mexico Governor Bill
Richardson, who served Bill Clinton as both Energy Secretary and
SUPER U.N. Representative and who chaired the recent Democratic conven-
tion, has publicly endorsed the idea of reopening the official investi-
gation of the celebrated crash.
BOLTS In the foreword to a new book “The Roswell Dig Diaries” pub-
lished by the Sci Fi channel Richardson says “the mystery sur-
rounding this crash has never been adequately explained—not by
independent investigators, and not by the U.S. government.... There
are as many theories as there are official explanations.

he Camino de Santiago is an an-
cient pilgrimage route that tra-
verses Spain from its beginning in
the Pyrenees to the tomb of St.
James the Apostle, located at the Cathedral
of Santiago de Compostela in Spain’s north-
western province of Galicia. The Camino
saw as many as 2,000,000 pilgrims annually
in the Middle Ages, and is regaining similar
popularity today. Because of the Camino's
importance in medieval times, it holds,
within its declared boundaries of 25 kilome-
ters on either side, the greatest concentra-
tion of Romanesque and Gothic architec-
ture in the world.
Known generally as a Catholic pil-
grimage, little is said or known of the pre-
Christian Camino, sometimes called the
“Route of the Stars.” Evidence indicates
that the origins of the Camino can be traced
back into prehistory, long before the re-

he Sci-Fi Channel’s new hit televi-
sion spin-off based on the ex-
tremely popular Stargate SG-1 se-
ries has hit the ground running. If
you haven’t seen it, the story takes a team of
Earth’s ‘best & brightest’ through the ‘star-
gate’ (a device created by an ancient race for
instantaneous interstellar travel ) to a far-off
galaxy where they discover the lost city of
Atlantis.
Atlantis is actually a huge, self-
contained, undersea city which appears to
be abandoned except for plenty of high-tech
gear including a collection of spacecraft
small enough to fit through the stargate. In
episode one, Atlantis responds to the visi-
tors' presence by releasing its undersea
moorings and rising to the surface to be-
come a floating city. Unable to return to
earth, the team must explore local worlds
through the stargate to find food and alli-

Perhaps the most dramatic reference to
the Mer-Ka-Ba in the Bible comes from II
Kings and the story of Elijah, the prophet
who never died, but who may have returned
as John the Baptist, the forerunner and ini-
tiator of Jesus. We read that the Lord sent
Elijah, and his disciple and successor Elisha,
to a place called Beth-el (II Kings 2:2). This
was same place where Jacob had seen the
ladder to heaven. Beth-El (meaning ‘House
of God’) is also known as Luz (‘light’), and is
considered by Jewish mystics to be one of
the ‘Seats of the Immortals’. Shambhala, we
recall, is also called the dwelling of the
immortals.
At Beth-el, the sons or the brotherhood
of prophets came out to greet Elijah. Fifty of
the brotherhood follow Elijah and Elisha to
the Jordan river. Upon arrival Elijah and
Elisha cross the Jordan, which takes its
name from Eridanus, the river of life, or the
Milky Way.
Elijah rolled up his mantle or cloak and
struck the water of the river. The water was
parted and the two prophets cross the river.
Suddenly, a Merkaba of fire appears, and
Elijah disappears in a whirlwind. On the
third dimension of reality, the one we are
tuned to, Elijah has vanished! Has he
crossed the Milky Way?
Most biblical interpreters explain these
verses in the following way: Elisha had a “vi-
sion” of a war chariot of fire. He halluci-
nated or “imagined” something chaotic (the
“whirlwind”).
However, something very profound hap-

and earth. It also employs a science of num-
bers and proportions, as a system of discrete
and powerful forces, and their relations, that
underlie every act of creation.
This “spiritual science” is considered by
some to lie, like the Route of the Stars, at
the heart of all religions, including Chris-
tianity itself. It was preserved by the med-
ieval masons, the builders, architects and
sculptors of the churches along the way. Or-
ganized in lodges or guilds, the medieval
masons were the precursors of contempo-
rary Freemasonry, “high priests” in a lin-

knowledge, capable of uniting the material
and the spiritual, the human and the divine.
A Journey on the Camino is, in this
sense, a Journey into the Ancient Mysteries,
a Primordial Traditional that once “was,”
but has been “lost,” and can be regained.
The name “Santiago” itself comes from
“Jaime,” or “James,” and like the Italian
“Giacome” and the Basque “Jakin” means
“sovereign,” or “wise man” while “Compos- Cloister at the
tela” would signify “field or clearing” from Monastery of Santo

Nevertheless, it has been pointed out that
the site at which the Cathedral stands is
“Compo,” not “Campostela,” indicating a
possible connection with the “compos,” or
“seed of wisdom,” of Alchemy. “Santiago de
Compostela” would mean, then, “Wise Man
of the Star.” In a similar manner, the Great
Work, the path of spiritual development of
the Alchemists, is sometimes called the “Ca-
mino de Santiago.”
A Journey on the Camino is an opportu-
nity to explore and interpret, witness and ex-
perience the preservation of such a “spiri-
tual science” it is also an opportunity to
consider its very source.
Like the labyrinth that is its symbol, the
ancient Camino is a Journey to a place of
union, to the center of All That Is, whereby
the pilgrim can attain self-salvation. It is an
opportunity to weave, at every step, myth
and history, life and symbol, time and the
timeless, until they merge.
