Course XXIX - Teaching 6: Three First Lemurian Sub-races

The first sub-race, called Za, evolved while the Lemurian Continent was being formed; this sub-race was totally like the last Hyperborean sub-race.
These beings were almost continuously lying down, and their reproduction was through eggs.
Blood became thick and skin opaque by stabilization of blood vessels and torrid heat.
Some 6,000,000 years ago, they inhabited the vast continent called Zalmali in ancient writings; this continent covered all Australia and centre of present Pacific Ocean, and extended to part of Africa, southern Asia and South America.
This extremely monotonous territory, with quite poor vegetation, just much later will develop the giant Lemurian flora.
Sometimes earth and sea did not differ because the earth was a vast sea of mud, which boiled continuously.
Mountains were not such, but certain protuberances formed by volcanic gases from inside upwards.
A continuous viscous vapor ascended from this mass of earth and water, and formed a perennial atmosphere of nebulae and weightiness.
Heat and vital essences formed multiple insects in depths of the sea: from monstrous amoebae to starfish, from little mollusks to the biggest were gestated during the first Lemurian sub-race.
But the compound of mud was really characteristic and different from present mud because it was earth and iron that became alternately hot or cold under certain chemical elements deposited in it by certain gases.
The giant flora starts developing in the second sub-race: immense green layers, which gradually became ferns and, over all, a characteristic plant used by the Lemurians for their canes and to remain standing up; this plant got hard by the terrestrial heat, not because of its internal elements. This took place in a peculiar way: under the external layer of the terrestrial crust there were certain liquid deposits of spheroid forms, the roots of these plants reached those deposits and, as it were, they remained to soak.
This tree was distantly similar to present eucalyptus, but immensely bigger and its leaves had a more penetrating perfume than the flower of the magnolia.
While the second sub-race, called Za-Ha, progressed, the first continental earthquakes took place and divided Lemuria into two large parts, besides islands and rocky isles.
The monads demanded their bodies to stand up; in short, to perfect the cerebrospinal system. Now the spine was perfect and hard, and all nervous nets were tended. The encephalic mass just needed to come into contact with minds of human monads; so, the wonderful organism would work. First efforts were in vain. Men were unable to stand up as long as they did not retain the gestating egg within; but they could lean on the trees that, as it were, became the houses of the Lemurians.
Two opaque points on their hollow faces denoted how the sons of the mind strove for an organ of vision outwards, as soon as the abode of the mind was prepared. And they developed their sight thanks to continuous shakes, thunders, lightnings, volcanic eruptions and powerful luminous meteors that emerged from the terrestrial mud.
During the third sub-race, after new seismic movements, the Zami leaned again on the trees, and did not expelled eggs; even though they were bisexual, some of them perfected the female side and were able to retain the egg until expelling the foetus.
Lemurian men can be clearly defined on this sub-race.
After so many changes and metamorphoses, this Race could happily switch from animal to human.
The student may imagine a man two meters eighty centimeters tall, but disproportionate. An immense body supported by legs relatively short, and immense half-round legs, flat, with short toes.
A typical remainder of the ancient Lemuria is a race entirely extinct and descendant of the Lemurians, the Patagonian of South America, described by Magallanes’ companions.
The arms of the Zami were very long, almost until their feet –indispensable to stand erect.
Their head was very small in relation to their big jaws, wide ears, and wide and flat nose.
Their eyes were no more than two dead points, prepared for a future development, their forehead was one finger high, and their skull was entirely open, but protected by strings of skin covered with fuzz, which did not hide it.
As we said, their skin became compact and hard by a prevailing blood circulation and by the torrid atmospheric temperature; at birth it was especially red, as that of a boiled shrimp; later, it became darkish as the result of time and dirt.
