Mt Shasta - California

[Sundararajan]

American Indians believed that Mt. Shasta was of such immense grandeur that its existence could only be attributed to the Great Spirit. They also believed that an invisible race of little people lived on its slopes as guardians. If you tried to climb the mountain and were found to be an unworthy person, they would throw you off to your death! They also have legends of Bigfoot and other mysterious beings and forces connected with Mt. Shasta.

THE SANSKRIT CONNECTION - MOUNT SHASTA, CALIFORNIA 

Mt. Shasta, Cascade Range, Siskiyou County, California. 

Mount Shasta, California. It is the scene of a number of spiritual legends and is regarded as a mystical power source. The peak is visible from more than 150 kilometres away.

The most ancient tales of Mt. Shasta mysticism come from the Native American folklore. Occulaist Kenneth Grant regards the mystical power of Mt. Shasta equivalent to the mysticism of Mt. Arunachala at Tiruvannamalai in India. Mt. Arunachala is regarded as the manifestation of Lord Shiva himself. 

Says Kenneth Grant, "Arunachala is the most sacred holy place of all........ Ramana Maharshi once said that Arunachala was the top of the spiritual axis of the earth and that there must be another mountain corresponding to it at the opposite side of the globe. I am suggesting that the other mountain is Mt. Shasta.  Mt. Shasta and Mt. Arunachala are two of the major spiritual power spots of planet Earth".

Look at the Sanskrit connection to the word Shasta. Shasta (शस्त) means beautiful, fortunate, auspicious, excellent, praiseworthy and commendable. Shasta also means 'eulogy'. What one word could describe the beauty and mysticism of Mt. Shasta better.

Native Americans also called Mt. Shasta ' Uytah -Ku' or 'White Mountain', possibly a corruption of 'Shweta-Naku' (श्वेता- नाकु) also meaning 'White Mountain' in Sanskrit. Another name for Mt. Shasta was ' waika ', which is also probably a corruption of the Sanskrit ' shweta ' (श्वेत) meaning 'white'. In fact, the English word 'white' itself derives from the Sanskrit ' shweta '. Another Sanskrit word also meaning white is ' shuchi ' (शुचि) and could have been distorted into ' shasta ' over time.

Archaeologists are now beginning to study the many megalithic sites around Mt. Shasta and the higher valleys of the mountains in the region. At one point, a stone marking on one of the stones coincides exactly with the only spot on Winter solstice day , from where one can see the sun appear directly from behind the Mt. Shasta peak. 

There is much left to uncover and explore at this unique site.

Brilliant lights are seen to sail about Arunachala that seem to be under intelligent control. There is supposed to be a city inside of the mountain. It is inhabited by yogic adepts. Upon death if you are not quite high enough to merge with the Supreme Spirit then you might at least go to live inside Arunachala. The adepts from inside Arunachala can change their shape to any human or animal form and travel incognito in the outside world. This is similar to the stories about the Lemurians from Mt. Shasta. The legend grew from an offhand mention of Lemuria in the 1880s, to a description of a hidden Lemurian village in 1925. In 1931, Wisar Spenle Cerve wrote Lemuria: the lost continent of the Pacific, about the hidden Lemurians of Mount Shasta .
