One
of the questions that I am frequently being asked concerning
Atlantean temple practices is what methods of healing did they
employ? Were there hospitals for the sick and establishments
for medical training? Was the treatment allopathic, homoeopathic
or psychic/spiritual, or were other methods used? Once again
we must separate psychic impression and past-life memories from
facts, although the former may ultimately be proven correct.
What we do know from Clement of Alexandria (AD 150) and Lamblichus
(AD 363) is that certain antediluvian medial textbooks, which
could have carried a strong Atlantean influence, contained the
following information concerning the healing knowledge possessed
in ancient Egypt. The healer priests, or ‘shrine bearers’,
learned their medical arts from six different books, which were
among forty-two works purportedly brought to Egypt by a different
race of people before the Flood. These scrolls were shown
to Iamblichus, who was informed that Thoth of Tehuti was their
author. Some Egyptologists have suggested that the Papyrus
Ebers may be a fraction of these lost works. Of the first
thirty-six we need not concern ourselves, as they related mainly
to priestly procedures, but those numbered 37-42 were titled
as follows.
37.
The Constitution of the Body
38. Diseases
39. Instruments
40. Drugs
41. Eyes
42. The Maladies of Women
Information
gleaned from healing methods employed in places thought to be
colonies of Atlantis would also tend to indicate that the Atlantean
healer priests were well-versed in surgery, psychology and psychic
healing. They understood the mind/body relationship and the
need for this to be in balance in order for the individual to
enjoy good health.
