The ongoing Atlantis quest – fact or fiction?
Two Dandelion authors pursued the Atlantis quest as both fact and fiction.
In outstanding works that support the theory that Atlantis was not only an actual civilization, but one that was highly advanced, Gene D. Matlock and Solara Vayanian deliver convincing evidence.
Matlock's book, titled The Last Atlantis Book You'll Ever Have to Read!: The Atlantis-Mexico-India , is richly laced with linguistic references to Sanskrit and the strong connection between the early settlers of India and North America: “From the start, I was impressed with the high number of ‘Tlan, Atlan, Itlan, etc.’ suffixes in Mexican place names. Also, the ancient Mexicans said that centuries ago, they immigrated to the Americas from a country across the sea, whose name was ‘Tollan’ or ‘Tlan.’
“Still today, in India's schools, professors will fold a world map, sticking a pin through India,” says Matlock, “so that the point of the pin comes out in Mesoamerica, on the other side. They do this to show that the mythical ‘world’ of ‘Atalantes,’ or ‘Nation of the Underworld’ was, in fact, not an infernal region, but the part of the world opposite India: Mesoamerica. Even we Americans call Australia ‘The Land Down Under.’
Matlock’s personal Atlantis quest has been a lifelong mission.
Laurel Johnson,
Senior Reviewer for The Midwest Review states in her review of Vayanian’s Time out of Mind:
"In this fascinating tale about the last days of Atlantis, Solara Vayanian draws chilling similarities between that ancient culture and our world today. America, especially, should heed her words.
"Once a shining beacon to the known world, Atlantis courted its own destruction, just as America is today. Make no mistake. The ancient primordial powers of darkness and light are doing battle in the world around us. Good versus evil.
"The author speaks with thrilling prose and stunning universal truths in an effort to get our attention. World events are leading to another cataclysm.
"The people of Atlantis had drifted from days of glory towards mediocrity. They had forgotten how to live in harmony with the land. Their bodies, minds, and spirits were no longer in tune as they had been once… Atlantis caused its own demise. Will we?
"The light of love unending is the answer. Can we heed it? Love is the only true healer. Are we capable of believing that?
