#11 — The following story appeared on page 50 of Timothy Green Beckley’s book, “THE SHAVER MYSTERY AND THE INNER EARTH”.
“…I arrived in Brazil in 1956 and have been carrying on my research since I met a Theosophical leader who told me about the subterranean cities, inhabited by a super race of Atlantean origin, that existed in Brazil.
He referred me to Professor Henrique Jose de Souza, president of the Brazilian Theosophical Society, at Sao Lourenco in the state of Minas Gerais, who erected a temple dedicated to Agharta which is the Buddhist name of the Subterranean world. Here in Brazil live Theosophists from all parts of the world, all of whom believe in the existence of the subterranean cities.
“Professor de Souza told me that the great English explorer Colonel Fawcett is still alive, living in a subterranean city in the Roncador Mountains of Matto Grosso, where he found the subterranean city of Atlantean’s for which he searched, but is held prisoner lest he reveals the secret of its whereabouts. He was not killed by Indians as is commonly believed.
“Professor de Souza claimed he has visited subterranean cities, including Shamballah, the world capital of the subterranean empire of Agharta. I then went to Matto Grosso to find the subterranean city where Fawcett is claimed to be living with his son Jack but failed to do so. I then returned to Joinville in the state of Santa Catarina, and there continued my research.
“Just recently two of my explorers returned from entering a tunnel near Ponte Grosse in the state of Parana. One of them had recently entered alone and spent 5 days in the underworld city there. It had about 50 inhabitants plus children. The fruit orchards were recently planted, and the inhabitants received fruit from another subterranean city.
During the last visit, the two explorers were met at the entrance of the tunnel by a guardian and the chief of the city, who told them that they should return in two years when the fruit trees will start to bear, but cannot enter now.
“These same two explorers entered a tunnel near Rincon, state of Parna, and finally came to a chimney-like structure with four chains hanging down. They descended on the chains but when they came near the bottom, a gas with a chemical odor started to come up and forced them to ascend. Obviously the subterranean dwellers tried to keep them from reaching their city.
(Editor’s Notes: This seems often to be the case).
