root race timeline confusion

interesting thank you sir
I look forward to it
but i am impatient
even if overlap... does not compute...
this race very brief window of development in comparison...
lemurian race even bigger time period...
age difference but not great enough to account for millions of years vs a few thousand...
is time condensing?
is the 108 lives spread between races, or restricted to just one
thank you very much i appreciate your time

The sidereal year exists as well as the terrestrial year. We understand the terrestrial year as being the movement of the earth around the sun during a period of 365 days. The terrestrial year has four seasons: spring, summer, autumn, and winter. The sidereal year also exists, lasting for approximately 25,968 terrestrial years.

Our solar system travels around the zodiacal belt and during its voyage many unusual things happen. The solar system returns to its original point of departure after completing its voyage around the zodiacal belt, thus concluding the sidereal year.

The sidereal year also has its four seasons: spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Spring is the Age of Gold, summer is the Age of Silver, autumn is the Age of Copper, and winter is the Age of Iron.

Each Root Race endures a complete voyage of the solar system around the zodiacal belt.

Our present Root Race, the Aryan Race that populates the five continents of the world, was born after the universal flood and will last throughout the era of Aquarius, which we are presently in. The voyage of our solar system began in Aquarius and will end in Aquarius.

Before this present voyage, our solar system completed another voyage. Another Root Race existed during that previous voyage, that is to say, during that previous sidereal year. I would like to emphatically refer to the Root Race that inhabited the lost continent of Atlantis.

According to the above each root race only lasts for one sidereal year or 25,968 terrestrial years. I would also like to know how this adds up. Are these years to be taken literally? Is there a source for the millions of years mentioned in the video? Thank you.

The great war between the solar and lunar races in the submerged Atlantis was marvelously chanted by the Asians in their Mahabharata. Traditions state that such a war endured for many thousands of years. This war, made up of a series of wars, lasted for centuries, and started about 800,000 years ago. According to The Secret Doctrine, this is the date on which the first of the three Atlantean catastrophes occurred. The second catastrophe occurred 200,000 years ago. These wars ended with the third and last catastrophe related to Poseidonis Island in front of Gades, which happened about 11,000 years ago.

"The Fourth, born millions of years before the said cataclysm took place, perishes during the Miocene period, when the Fifth (our Aryan race) had one million years of independent existence. How much older it is from its origin -- who knows? As the "Historical" Period has begun, with the Indian Aryans, with their Vedas, for their multitudes, and far earlier in the Esoteric Records, it is useless to establish here any parallels." -Blavatsky, Secret Doctrine

Do not take numbers literally, especially when they are discussed by a master.
