Geology And The Cosmic
Forces.
The Birth of the Earth. I will commence
this chapter by saying what is said about the creation in the sacred
writings of Mu. There the creation has been divided into seven
commands of the Creator. It was written over 70,000 years ago in
Mu.
Extracts: The first intellectual
command was: "Let the gases which are scattered throughout space
be collected together, and with them let worlds be
formed."
Then the gases were brought together into whirling circulating
masses.
The second intellectual command was
"Let these gases cool and solidify."
Obeying this command, some of the gases
cooled, solidified and formed round worlds. Gases were left on the
outside of these worlds and there were gases contained within them.
Darkness prevailed and there was neither light or sound, for as yet
the atmosphere had not been created.
The third intellectual command was:
"Let the outside gases be separated, so that they form the
atmosphere and the waters." Then the outside gases were
divided; one part went to form the waters, and the remainder formed
the atmosphere.
The waters settled upon the face of the earth and covered it so that
no dry land appeared above the waters anywhere.
Then the shafts of the sun struck the
light which was in the atmosphere and gave it life, and light shone
upon the face of the earth, and the shafts of the sun struck the heat
in the atmosphere, and also gave it life, so that warmth fell upon
the face of the earth.
"The fourth intellectual command
was: Let the land appear above the waters."
The gaseous fires of the underneath, which were contained within the
earth, lifted the land upon which the waters rested, and the land
appeared above the face of
the waters.
Commands 5, 6 and 7 refer to life
only
(Note: at this point in his CF, book 1,
Churchward, apparently for brevity, left out details about 5,6 and 7.
I am including them here taken from the beginning chapter of his
first book "The Lost Continent of Mu" for those who
have not read his first book - Dick Fojut)...
The fifth command was:
" ' Let life come forth in the
waters.' And the shafts of the sun met the shafts of the earth in
the mud of the waters and there formed cosmic eggs (life germs) out
of particles of the mud. Out of these cosmic eggs came forth life as
commanded."
The sixth command was:
" 'let life come forth upon the
land.' And the shafts of the sun met the shafts of the earth in
the dust of the land, and out of it formed cosmic eggs; and from
these cosmic eggs life came forth upon the earth as
commanded."
And when all this was done, the seventh
intellect said: "Let us make man after our own fashion, and let
us endow him with powers to rule this earth."
"Then Narayana, the seven-headed
Intellect, the Creator of all things throughout the universe, created
man, and placed within his body a living, imperishable sprit, and man
became like Narayana in intellectual power, Then was creation
complete."
(end of 5,6,7 above extracted from
Churchward's first book. Continuing hereafter from CF, book
one)...
After a careful study of these old Naacal
writings, I made a study of the chemistry of the earth's crust,
rock formations, and geological phenomena, to ascertain how well
it fitted in with the writings of the earth's first great
civilization. It is left with my readers to say whether or not our
present day scientists appear as mere babes in swaddling clothes
compared with our great scientific forefathers.
To perfectly comprehend the workings of
the great forces which eventually brought the earth into final
magnetic balance I think it is well to first give a short synopsis of
the birth of the earth. Geologists have built up their theories on
elements and compounds of elements coming before them.

Geologists have built up their theories on elements and compounds of
elements coming before them.
I shall take the same material, and also
show what part the Cosmic Forces and thermo-chemistry
played.
After considering many of the
questionable phenomena, I think that the geologists' deductions about them
are erroneous; and that these errors have arisen from the fact that
geologists generally, have completely ignored the presence of the
great forces; also, the peculiar honeycombed condition of the earth's
foundational structure, the primary archaen
rock-granite.
This honeycombed condition must
necessarily have existed; the reasons why will be given
hereafter. One of the greatest errors made by geologists is
the manner in which molten matter cools and
solidifies.
The process of cooling molten matter to
the point where it becomes a solid is: first, a thin shell of
crystals is formed on the outside of the mass, thus forming a crust
or wall.
When this crust or wall is formed there is
no material shrinkage in the size of the body until the time when the
whole mass solidifies, and is brought down to atmospheric
temperature. Thus, taking a spherical body, the only shrinking in the
diameter of the body would be the amount of contraction of two
crystals, one on each side of the sphere, which is infinitesimal.
So that when the earth cooled, she never lost any size through
cooling.
I can imagine how this assertion will be
met by geologists, scientists and unthinking laymen. With flushed
faces, sneers and loud speaking they will declare: "Why it has
been positively proven that the diameter of the earth has shrunk 20
miles in cooling." I am not going to argue with them in the
amount of shrinkage; but as to whether the shrinkage was due to
contraction in cooling, I emphatically say it was not. Further, had
the contraction been due to cooling, the great divine laws of
creation as laid down by the Creator could not have been carried
out.
I will explain how the crust of the
earth was cooled and solidified, following a natural law, which we
see exemplified every day. I speak from practical experience in
cooling and solidifying large masses of molten matter.
As soon as the outside wall or crust is formed, by a skin of outside
molten matter cooling and turning into crystals, and joining each
other, the molten-
As will be seen, the building up of the solid has taken place from
the OUTSIDE and was continued inwards to the
center.
When the molten matter cools and
crystallizes, each portion of molten matter that goes to form a
crystal occupies more space than the crystal itself; consequently,
as the building goes on, the adhesions of the planes of the
crystal become reduced in area, thereby reducing the strength of the
whole, and the strength of the adhesion between
crystals.
This condition with the further cooling of
the mass brings about internal strains within the body, which are
gradually intensified as the temperature of the mass drops down to
atmospheric temperature. This is caused by the withdrawal of the heat
force from the mass.
I have previously shown that heat is--a
force occupying space, and that temperature is the measurement of the
VOLUME of heat present. It can now be readily appreciated that when
the heat is withdrawn from the super-heated body, cooling from a
molten state, the central crystals of the mass, instead of having the
bolstering power of a force, replaces it with a vacuum, so that the
adhesions become weakened, often resulting in actually breaking the
adhesions, causing long cracks to be formed in the body of the
mass.
Quite often when casting steel ingots, a
regular hollow is formed in the ingot if the metal is poured too hot.
This is technically called "piping." This condition only
occurs when cooling metal from a molten state, and occurs because in
building up to the outside crust all material has been drawn from
the center, leaving it hollow. The outside crust does not
contract to fill in the cracks or pipe in the ingot. Neither has the
earth's crust shrunk to fill in the cracks and fissures in the
primary rock which were formed there during the cooling of
it.
These cracks and fissures in the
earth's foundational rocks were formed there for nature's purposes.
They were pre-ordained to carry out creation as planned by the
Creator. This will hereafter be shown and explained.
The formation of the primary
rock granite, was an undeveloped foundation which required compacting
before a heavy super-structure could be built upon
it.
The development and completing of this
foundation was the reason for most of the changes that took place in
the earth's surface during the past millions of years. It was the
cause of the many submersions and emersions of lands that have
taken place during the many millions of years that have elapsed
between the archaen time, and the end of the tertiary era. Gases
have been the active forces which have been the agents of these
changes.
Gases are responsible for our mountains
and mountain ranges. They have been responsible for the depths of our
oceans and seas; and gases are responsible for our earthquakes and
volcanos today.
Had the gases remained inactive from
the beginning, not one inch of land would ever have appeared
above the waters.
The gases were encased in and within
the primary archaen granite for a purpose; to become the agents
for bringing the land above the waters, digging it over, forming soil
on it, cultivating it, and preparing it for the advent of man. Man
could not appear before the proper condition for his existence had
been completed; when this condition was completed, man
appeared.
GASES. First
Command...
I shall make a start with the earth's
original form which was gaseous. I will make the start from this
point because it will better enable my readers to follow my ideas and
conceptions concerning the disposition of various gases during the
earth's cooling, the gases which went to form the earth's
nebula.
Gases have been responsible for all of
the most important changes that have taken place in the earth's
typography from time to time.
The workings of the gases account for many
well-known phenomena, the origin of which are, and always have been,
matters of mystery and controversy among scientists.
The earth's nebula was a whirling,
circulating mass of hot elementary gases, which has been estimated to
have been from 400,000 to 450,000 miles in diameter. Before
proceeding further let us make sure that the earth's original form
was gaseous, as stated in the sacred inspired writings of
Mu.
To arrive at the original and primary
state of any elementary body, we have to invoke the aid and
assistance of chemistry. A chemical analysis is the undoing of a
previous chemical action called a synthesis.
A chemical analysis is therefore the
untying of a previously made chemical
knot.
The last chemical analysis or the
untying of the last chemical knot must therefore bring matter back to
its original form.
A chemical analysis brought about by the
aid of the common acids does not bring the matter back to original
form; it only separates the elements of a compound, and then not
perfectly, as there are still left what are termed
impurities.
I must therefore employ thermo-chemistry,
where the final analysis is brought about by the aid of the heat
force, which transforms the elements into gases.
As there is no known form of analysis
beyond this, we may presume that we have arrived at original form.
This confirms the sacred writings and proves that what is now the
solid crust of the earth was originally elementary
gases.
As a further proof that the foregoing is
correct, with the aid of heat turn earthly elements into gases; then
in turn cool the gases again. They return to solids, thus proving
beyond question that the original form of the earth was gaseous. As
an example of this nature today, let me call attention to what has
been termed dust clouds which commonly appear after a major volcanic
eruption. This is a well known phenomenon to scientists.
After a major eruption vast dust clouds
are to be seen at high altitudes
in the atmosphere, so dense as to often
affect the sunlight. These clouds have been reported to extend
thousands of miles, half way around the earth. The ejections from the
volcanos normally are lava, which is molten rock, flames and smoke.
It is inconceivable that the super-heated flames could carry up
fine particles of dust without melting them and turning them into
gases. The heat in the (gas) belt has been at a temperature
sufficiently high to melt the rocks and form lava out of them; the
dust was also in the belt, why was it not melted with the
rocks?
To me this is the only reasonable solution
of these clouds: The dust left the crater in the form of
super-heated gases, and being hot ascended; the higher they were
carried, the cooler became the temperature; the flames were made
up of both non-solidifying and solidifying gases.
When the solidifying gases arrived at
the cold strata of the earth's upper atmosphere, it caused them to
cool and solidify in the form of a fine dust, making what science has
called dust clouds.
These dust clouds float on until drawn down to the surface of the
earth, by the great central magnet. After settling on the land, the
first rain would naturally carry it into the soil, and where it fell
on water it would naturally sink to the bottom.
In this way we see nature taking from the
center to add to the surface. No doubt electric storms have much to
do with bringing the dust down to the surface from the
atmosphere.
Cooling the Gases of the
Earth's Nebula.
We see this same thing happening today in
various spots of the universe. One which I think duplicates the
earth's nebula, moon and all, appears in the constellation of
Andomeda.
When the gases were brought to a center
by the great molding force, they had an exceedingly high temperature
which is demonstrated by the fact that now to turn the matter back
into original form, an exceedingly high temperature
is required.
Whether it was the effect of ether surrounding the cooling
gases, whether it was the dividing of the gases themselves, or
chemical affinities, or the great molding force, or a combination of
them all, I am not prepared to say; but certain of the various
gases went into chemical compounds and intimate unions, cooled,
solidified and formed the initial crust of the earth.
There were more than 80 elementary gases
composing the earth's nebula.
Out of this number ONLY six went to
form the initial rock granite - aluminum, calcium, magnesium,
potassium, silicon and oxygen.
Hereafter I will call these six the
solidifying gases and the balance non-solidifying.
At the time when some of the gases began
to assume a molten form, they apparently began to divide to a certain
extent only; apparently right in the middle of the nebula an
area of the heavy rock-making gases was drawn towards the center in
the form of a sphere.
With it however were carried vast
volumes of the non-solidifying variety. A complete separation
between the solidifying and non-solidifying gases was NOT made, so
the earth's crust commenced to be formed with the gases
unseparated.
As previously stated the cooling and
solidifying commenced near the center of the nebula. Volumes
of gases of all sorts lay within the forming crust and volumes of
gases of all sorts lay on the outside of the crust.
Among the outside gases were vast volumes of the heavy,
solidifying gases. These gases eventually went to form the gneiss
rocks, which were laid down upon the granite. The balance of the
outside gases went to form the atmosphere and waters.
In this way we see nature taking from the
center to add to the surface. No doubt electric storms have much to
do with bringing the dust down to the surface from the
atmosphere.
The material of the gneiss rocks went into
various chemical combinations and, one after the other, cooled until
molten, then rested on the gneiss.
The earth was moving at the time and her impetus caused the molten
matter to spread and flow. As these rocks were not all formed at the
same time, but one after the other, they were
stratified.
This is the reason why we find the gneiss
rocks stratified and the granite unstratified, although some of the
earliest of the gneiss rocks are made of identically the same
chemical compound as the granite.
The granite at the time the first gneiss rocks were being laid down
was exceedingly hot. It had not sufficiently solidified to prevent
the gneiss from running into it.
During the formation of the granite
rock, some of the non-solidifying gases went into chemical
combination with each other, forming highly explosive gases, which
are now called volcanic gases. These volcanic gases were
encased in and within the granite rock.
In the granite rock they formed chambers
for themselves, and vast volumes were incased within the crust
itself. These confined gases could not escape without first
puncturing the rock above. This they were incapable of doing at
first, because the rocks were too hot and too
pliable.
As the granite rock was being formed by
one set of gases, at the same time the explosive volcanic gases were
being formed by another set of gases, so that within the granite rock
there were huge volumes of these explosive gases awaiting
freedom.
How the Explosive Gases
Formed Chambers for Themselves.
As vast volumes of the volcanic gases were
associated with the solidifying gases at the time the granite rock
was being formed, room space was required for
their accommodation.
These gases could not remain
equally distributed throughout the solidifying mass, as in such a
state they would have prevented the adhesion of the crystals as they
were formed. Had this adhesion of crystals been prevented, only hot
masses of powderlike, crumbly matter could have been
formed.
These volcanic gases collected in bulk,
forming huge bubbles; the rock was formed around them,
and thus incased them. In this way a huge chamber was formed in the
granite rock, filled with the most explosive form of
gases.
From the foregoing it will be seen that
granite, the foundation of the earth when laid down, was a
perfectly honeycombed mine of explosive gases.
In an estimate I have made of the possible volume of these gases,
I think fully one-half of the rock was made up of these
chambers, and that up to the end of the Tertiary Era, by the
blowing out of these chambers down to the gas belt line, fully
20 miles of the earth's diameter was reduced. I made this calculation
on the average depth of the gas belts today.
It was by the blowing out of these
chambers, and their roofs falling to their floors, that the
earth's diameter was reduced, and not by shrinkage in cooling.
I think this should end the teaching of the geological myth of
"the fault," upon which our scientists are basing the
origin of earthquakes.
The origin of an earthquake is the
movement of gases, and gases only, attempting to reach one of the
outlets in a (gas) belt, and finding the passage blocked, they have
to clear it to pass on.
When a chamber was blown out the roof fell
to the floor, the waters rolled in over it, and then another
super-structural rock was formed upon it. Regarding the size of these
chambers, they no doubt varied considerably.
Some were mere pockets a few feet in height only, while others
were hundreds and thousands of miles long and of great height and
area.
The average was less than 300 feet in height from floor to roof, This
is verified where we find a coral limestone built up on the roof of a
fallen chamber.
I do not think that the deepest spots in
our oceans are the result of the blowing out of a single
chamber.
I rather think that a series of chambers
lay directly under one another, and close at that.
Following natural laws these old archaen gas chambers should
represent area rather than height. This seems to be verified by
several phenomena following a blowout. All through the past
millions and millions of years, from the Archaen Time down to the end
of the Tertiary Era, the earth's foundation rock, granite, has been
sliced up through volcanic workings.
The land and rocks have been raised and
submerged over and over again. Each time they have been compacted by
the weight of the water above, so that now nearly all if not
entirely all of the old archaen gas chambers, anywhere near the
surface of the earth, have been blown out, worked over and
compacted.
If any do remain they are exceedingly small, mere pockets, and of the
isolated variety; that is, they have no connection with the earth's
center or cracks and fissures leading to the earth's center.
At present for many miles below the earth's surface (down to the
gas belt lines) the primary rock is a solid foundation for the
superstructure resting upon it.
Eliminating
Chambers
I have already shown that the earth's
crust was full of cracks and fissures caused by internal strains in
cooling; these became the passageways for the gases from the
earth's center to the chambers above.
The earth's center is composed of all the
elementary gases which formed the nebula. They are the gases
"within." Much of the heavy gases have gone into a molten
state, leaving the non-solidifying gases free.
*(Dick Fojut interjecting an opinion here. The
gases Churchward described above WERE in Earth's center - the hollow
- as Earth formed, AT THE BEGINNING. But when you get to the end of
his "Addenda" chapter he foresees a future time when ALL
the free gases will have been worked out of the crust and
consequently, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions will cease. At
some time AFTER Earth formed, the volumes of free gases in the hollow
may have been worked out of the center, outward into the molten layer
and into the hard crust above, by centrifugal force. Emptied of most
of the volatile gases, "Nature" may have THEN begun work on
a second crust and atmosphere within the hollow. It had to start
sometime. Why not then? My opinion. - Dick Fojut)*
--------------------------------------------------
The earth revolving on her axis is
carrying around this molten matter, but not at so rapid a gait as the
crust is moving. This causes a friction between the central molten
matter and the hard crust. The frictional line forms a magnet, and is
the source of what is termed gravity. It has two divisions, as
heretofore explained. The friction is enhanced by the central
centrifugal force thrusting it against the
hard crust.
As they are carried around, the free gases
come into contact with the hard crust.
By the tremendous weight of the molten
matter driven against the crust by the unmeasurable power of the
central centrifugal force, the free gases are forced up into the
cracks and crevices to the chambers.
They are forced from the lowest down chamber to the one nearest the
surface.
**This one, being already full, has to
find room space for the new gases thrust upon it. ** As new
gases flow or are driven in, so the roof is forced up. This goes
on until the thickness of the roof will stand no more
raising.
Weak spots in it have developed; these
the gases puncture and escape as volcanos. When they have been
exhausted where their bolstering power ceases to sustain the weight
of the roof, the roof crashes down.
The fallen rocks seal up the passage to
the chamber below. Then the chamber below has to take charge of the
new gases from the earth's center. This it does until it meets the
fate of the one just blown out above it, and so it has gone on until
the accumulated rocks above are thicker than the gases can lift and
puncture.
Then they attempt to lift and puncture
the rocks above them. This they are incapable of doing. The rocks are
lifted until a huge tunnel is formed to the next lateral chamber, and
so on from one chamber to another, thus forming a
belt.
At spots the gases found weak spots in the
roof; these they followed up, eventually piercing the roof and
forming a crater through which the gases of the
belt are emptied out.
In places the forming of these belts
cracked the roof above so that the gases had a free passage to an
isolated chamber which was upholding land out of
water.
This they caused to be overcompressed.
It then blew out and the land above with all on it sank and became
submerged. Prominent instances of this in the past are the
submersion of Mu, Atlantis, Bering Land Bridge, overland route
to Europe and ancient Ceylon. At places there were no
chambers to run into; the belt then bored along in
the lines of least resistance, raising mountains and
mountain ranges.
