India
Was the Founder of Atlantis!
-Gene D. Matlock, B.A., M.A.
During the early days of the Spanish conquest of Mexico,
a Catholic priest, Andrés Pérez de Rivas,
wrote of the experiences he had with the Indians of Northern
Mexico and Southwestern United States between 1591 -1620.
He was especially interested in two of their main deities:
"…one they called Variseva. The other was called
Vairubi, who was said to be the mother of the first figure…they
referred to them as the first beings from whom the rest
of mankind was born." (History of the Triumphs of
Our Holy Faith.)
Unlike western readers of my articles and two books,
India Once Ruled the Americas and The Last Atlantis Book
You'll Ever Have to Read, my Hindu readers don't need
me to tell them who Virasiva and Bhairavi are. Father Rivas
described some of the ways the Native-Americans worshiped
Varaseva and Vairubi: "The Indians moved in and out
of this circle, singing and dancing, adorned or painted
with rods in their hands." These rods were undoubtedly
"Lingayats." The good father was especially outraged
by their custom of praying to oblong upright stones with
strange swastika markings and serpents etched on the sides.
No need to explain what these were, either.
If Father's observations about Virasiva, Bhairavi, hand-held
Lingayats, and stone Shivlings were all the evidence I had
that the Amerindians were Hindus, I, too, would be tempted
to regard these anomalies as coincidences. But aside from
the fact that many of them also claim to be Himday, Inde,
Henditre, etc., I can produce hundreds of proofs more!
For example, when I want to identify the Indian origins
of their respective deities, most of the time I have only
to open up my book Siva's Thousand Names, by Subhash
Anand, and find them there.
Although times are looking up, it has been a real struggle
for me to make Christians and Hindus as aware of India's
past dominance of the world as I am. This obstacle is none
other than each group's spiritual subjectivity and sectarian
biases. What both Hindus and Christians believe today is
radically different from the way they worshiped thousands
of years ago. The Hindus dominated the world when Shiva
was almost their only deity. At that time, the other Hindu
deities were now more than Yaksas and Yaksinis. The Christians
can't understand that Christianity was in existence thousands
of years before Jesus Christ was born. Jesus (Yeshua) is
just another name of Isvara or Shiva!
When I tell Christians and Hindus that their respective
"religions" are the same thing hiding behind different
"Halloween masks," and that each has come to be
as pagan and idolatrous as the other, my popularity rating
zooms downward alarmingly. Another thing that some Hindus
dislike about me is that whenever I read the Rgveda or some
commentary about the War of the Mahabharata, I see the Asuras
as "the good guys!" And why not? I'm descended
from the Asuras who fled India thousands of years ago, rather
than submit to being demoted to Sudras and worse. So many
Hindus were living in England when Caesar invaded it that
he had to use Hindu mercenaries to help him govern England
and communicate effectively with the people. Half the place
and last names in England are of Indian origin.
It is not my intention in this article to defend my great-great-great,
etc., etc. grandparents role in that great war but to show
the Indian people how they and my great-etc., grandparents
influenced every crook and cranny of this world.The two
groups who brought India and its institutions to the world
were what the Indians call the Asvin Brothers or the Nasatya
Twins. There is not one nation on earth that wasn't influenced
by these two groups we call "Twins." We of European
descent know them as The Gemini Twins or Castor and Pollux.
The Amerindians call them The Warrior Twins, The Benefactor
Twins, and other similar names. In reality, they were just
two groups of Yadavas whom history calls Pani and Cabeiri
(Kubera).
The Pani (Phoenicians) were international traders who visited
and colonized every country on earth. The Cabeiri accompanied
them wherever they went, exploiting the world of all the
gold, silver, iron, and copper deposits they could find.
For that reason, these words, or their derivations, can
be found all over the world. Even today, Central Mexico
up to and including the American Southwest is known as La
Gran Quivira (The Great Kubera). Nearly all the gold panned
in Southern Arizona leaks out of the sacred mountain of
the O'odham tribe, Babo-Quivari, which means, as it also
means in Sanskrit and Hindi, "Grandfather Kubera."
However, in O'odham it means "Maternal Grandfather
Quivari." Inside this mountain resides their deity
I'itoi (Isa; Shiva). The O'odham also

worship sacred stones
known as Hotai, which my discerning Hindu readers will recognize
as a derivation of one of God Shiva's thousand names: Huta.
(For a wealth of evidence of the O'odhams' relationship
with India, see my book, India Once Ruled the Americas!)
The antidiffusionist scholars of the United States want
you and me to believe the lie that all the ancestors of
our Native-Americans entered the Western Hemisphere via
the Bering Strait. The truth of the matter is that most
of them were brought here on the ships of the Phoenicians
(Yadavas), of which there were two groups: Near Eastern
and Indian. The story of how they spread to every country
on earth is truly fascinating. As a caste of traders and
shippers, which in ancient India meant that only they could
legally build ships and trade, their numbers began to grow
beyond India's need for such a large caste. Finally, after
a series of small wars, they mutually agreed to spread out
over the entire world. The Yadavas who went to Central Asia
had a nearly exclusive monopoly over that part of the world,
including Egypt and Europe. The Yadavas of Northern India
put down trading factories in most of the Far East and the
Malayan Archipelago. It's difficult to say who discovered
America first: those of the Near East or those whose ships
plied the Pacific. Legends state that prevailing winds and
currents forced the Central Asian Phoenicians or Yadavas
to what is now Mexico's West Coast, on the shores of Veracruz
(Vira-Kurus) state. Later on, groups of Phoenicians and
Cabeiris were landing on both the Atlantic and Pacific coasts
of Mexico, also in South America.
These two groups immediately saw magnificent opportunities
for trading and mining in the Americas, but the tribes who
lived there were too sparse and primitive to be of service
to them. It was then that they decided to bring over settlers
from India and possibly even parts of the Near East.
Although there are still many primitive tribes in the world,
it is difficult for us to even visualize the primitivity
of most of mankind between ten to five thousand BC. They
were little more than animals. At that time, certain groups
of India-Indians became the first fully civilized human
beings. Their upward climb was always being threatened by
the hordes of human animals that roamed India in those days.
According to what we easily infer from many Hindu myths,
the most unredeemable cannibals and savages were sent to
Patala or Atala (The Underworld), in the hopes that many
of them could be trained in the arts of civilization. "The
Underworld," which later came to connote "Hell,"
and for good reason, was called thusly because according
to the ancient Indian way of thinking, India was Tal or
Tala ("The Surface") while its opposite, Atal
or Atala, was "Under the Surface," just as Americans
like to call Australia "The Land Down Under."
The people on "The Surface" were known as Talan
("Surface People"), while those "down below"
were Atalan. The myths of the Meso-Americans (Nahuatl-speaking
peoples like the Aztecs, the Mayas, and the original settlers,
the Olmecs) all claim that they came from a land called
Tollan or Tlan, which is none other than India: "Surface
People" or Talan. Back in India, Mesoamerica was known
as Atalandesha; to the Greeks and Middle Easterners as Atlantis.
The Mesoamericans themselves thought of themselves as Atlanteca
("Underworld People"). The Central Asian Phoenicians
called their land in the Atlantic, Al-Atlantis. For that
reason, names having Atlan roots are found all over Mexico:
Autlán; Atlán; Mazatlán; Zihuatlán;
Cuautitlán; etc. Aztatlán, on Mexico's West
Coast in Nayarit (Nairitti) state, means in Sanskrit, "Where
the Moon sets in Atala)" or the westernmost border
of Atlantis. The hereditary kings in this area were called
Nayar.
Not all the people sent to Patala or Atala were crude savages.
Some of them were highly civilized and went there, mainly
to what are now the Mayan lowlands in Central America: the
Nagas who, in reality, were Yadava warriors, traders, and
miners (Cabeiri). The land of the Nagas in Central America
was doubtlessly called Nagasetra because even today, that
region is called Nacaste. Evidently, these Nagas built a
great civilization there because Plato mentioned the wonders
of Atlantis in his Timaeus and Critias.
Indian myths and legends mention that many deities (really
exalted men) visited Patala or Atala. One of these was Vishnu
who went there to help the survivors rehabilitate themselves
from the ravages of a flood that nearly destroyed Atlantis.
This "Vishnu" was what the Mexicans called Quetzalcoatl;
the Mayans, Kukulkan, and the Inca and Moche Guculmatz.
Here are some proofs for my skeptics:God Vishnu's representative
in Patala or Atala had to be none other than the Quetzalcoatl,
Kukulcan, or Guculmatz. I say this because Vishnu's Vimana
(modes of transportation) were an eagle and a raft of snakes.
Quetzalcoatl's, etal Vimanas were also an eagle and a raft
of snakes. The eagle signified the ability of those ancient
travellers to traverse long distances, heedless of obstacles.
The raft of snakes was just the Phoenician Nagas on their
ships, the prows of which of resembled snakes and dragons.
