[Jitendra Hydonus]

From ‘God talks with Arjuna’ the Bhagavad Gita by Paramahnsa Yogananda

(An) equinoctial cycle taking 24,000 years, have been gone through about 83,000 times during the 2 billion years that scientists estimate the earth has already existed. Whenever this earthly school has fulfilled its temporary purpose in God's scheme according to cyclic timing, or whenever all the inhabitants have been fully educated and manifesting complete divinity, then, through a cosmic deluge, Spirit will not only release human beings but also the Karma-tortured active atoms of the earth. In partial dissolutions, only certain areas of the earth are 'dissolved' such as the continent of Atlantis and the Land of Mu (Lemuria) in the Pacific. Plato accounts the legends of one such a partial dissolution when about 9000 BC the land vibrated and trembled and great fissures appeared; Atlantis disappeared into the surrounding water with 88 million inhabitants.

History could hardly record complete cosmic earthly dissolutions! At such times a planet, for example, and all things on it are converted into diaphanous energy. Only liberated masters, through visions, have seen such cosmic disillusions; and no one except God has kept a record of how many times the earthly school-building and his pupils have been entirely dim dematerialized into astral or causal form, or into mere seed-ideas in the mind of the creator, and then brought forth again throughout the many "Days of Creation" - periods of manifestation which are then followed by "Nights of dissolution."

~Paramahansa Yogananda

mccoy, thanks for providing this video. i wonder what you think he is suggesting here. At first he speaks of Sirius as being a more or less permanent fixture in the sky. i had the impression that it is the star we are orbiting in a 24,000 year cycle but later on he expresses the idea that Pleiades is that star system. After listening through to the end... i wonder if he is of the opinion that we may be at opposites with Sirius in the middle, but we are traveling closer to the Pleiades as both star systems- our Sun and Alcyone are orbiting the Sirius star system.

Eric and Kelly; although you may not find time to listen to the whole presentation. i hope you can tune in at about the 20 minute marker at first.
