In 1983, Paul LaViolette (www.etheric.com/GalacticCenter/Galactic2.html) presented evidence to the scientific community indicating that Galactic core explosions actually occur about every 13,000-26,000 years with major outbursts, and more frequently with lesser events. He says that emitted cosmic rays escape from the core virtually unimpeded. As they travel in a radial pattern outward through the Galaxy, they form a spherical shell that advances at a velocity approaching the speed of light, with electromagnetic pulses and a gravity wave that can trigger tsunamis, earthquakes and cataclysmic events on our planet. Paul LaViolette thinks this is what happened to Atlantis and could very well be happening today.

Cosmic rays are energetic particles coming from all directions in space, producing the ionization in our atmosphere. Cosmic rays also have an extreme energy range of incident particles that allow for access and the availability to study aspects of their field, which cannot be studied in any other way.

The sun discharges a significant amount of these high-energy particles. “Solar cosmic rays” originate in the sun’s chromosphere. Most solar ray events occur after solar flares. Scientists now believe that cosmic rays can affect our weather. Cosmic rays cause clouds to form in the upper atmosphere, after the particles collide with other atmospheric particles in our troposphere. A cosmic ray shower is the process of a cosmic ray particle colliding with particles in our atmosphere and disintegrating into smaller pions, muons, etc. which is called a cosmic ray shower.

The tradition of the Sun Path revelations was lived by the ancient Persians as they looked up to the Sun and addressed the high Sun-spirit as `Ahura Mazdao’ The mystery traditions teach us that “the soul who appeared in Jesus of Nazareth had gone through various earlier incarnations in various parts, and we are led back to the time when this bearer of the later name `Jesus of Nazareth’ had attained, in the Persian world, a remarkably high state of initiation and performed a work of the highest significance. The Akashic record shows how this individuality had already worked in the spiritual world of the ancient Persians, how he looked up to the Sun and addressed the high Sun-spirit as `Ahura Mazdao.’ We must realize that it was into the bodies of this individuality, who had gone through these incarnations, that Christ entered. What does that mean, `Christ entered into the bodies of this individuality?’ It simply means that the Christ used these three bodies—the astral, the etheric, the physical—for His life and work upon Earth.” Steiner writes that all we think, feel and put into words depends upon the astral body that we all have, and that it bears all of these aspects of our being.
