THE TALE OF THE CREATION.--The following is what I found in the old
Oriental Naacal writing, supplemented by the Mexican Tablets: [....]

Scroll down under that section and notice how many illustrations are
labeled Naacal.
There are some quote comparisons about creation between Churchward and
Twitchell on the following a.r.e. link.

Paul Twitchell (in Shgariyat-Ki-Sugmad) apparently suggested that the
Records of the Kros go back farther than the the Naacal. Earlier than
that, however, a religion that came off of the planet Venus was called
the Naacal religion.

Another a.r.e. thread with Churchward and Twitchell quotes is here.
Example:
"The Lemurians had the greatest civilization known to the world. It
developed on the great continent of MU in the midst of the western
ocean, and spread around the world with many subempires. It was a
tropical country of vast plains. The valleys and plains were covered
with rich grazing grass and tilled fields. There were only low rolling
hills and no mountains, for the peaks and ranges of great heights had
not yet been forced up from the deep centers of the earth."
Shariyat-Ki-Sugmad, Book One (Third printing 1997), p. 57.
Although the word "mountains" appears on p. 52 of the same book, the
description of Lemuria with low rolling hills is similar to the way
Col. James Churchward described it. He too, suggested the mountains
had not yet been raised.
Quoting - Lost Continent of MU:
"It was a beautiful tropical country with vast plains. The valleys and
plains were covered with rich grazing grasses and tilled fields, while
the low rolling hill-lands
were shaded by luxuriant growths of tropical vegetation. No mountains
or mountain ranges stretched themselves through this earthly paradise
to give an irregular, jagged,
yet soft and graceful sky line.
"Mountains had not yet been forced up from the bowels of the earth.

1926; pages 23-24

I've read all the Churchward books and also the Shariyat's by Paul
Twitchell. In some places I had the same feeling reading Churchward as
I did when reading The Path of the Masters, by Julian Johnson. That
is, I saw information I had read about also in Eckankar books.
