A famous psychic told me I'd lived in Atlantis. I don't know if I believe it.
It's good for you to be cautious with any psychic, famous or otherwise, especially when they tell you you have lived in Atlantis in the distant past. I myself would not believe such nonsense, if I went to a psychic and I would be told that I have lived in Atlantis in a distant past life.
When it comes to Atlantis it's all fabrication, whether it was suggested by outside sources, or a creation of our own minds. Atlantis, Plato's Atlantis, to be clear, never existed back then, therefore no one could possibly have lived, in a previous incarnation, in an Atlantis which Plato made to, conveniently, sink around 11,600 years ago as easily as he made it up, to begin with. Plato's Atlantis was a philosophical allegory tool, as far as the academic world is concerned. And I'm not even certain that academia has it correct. It certainly would be nice if today we had someone claiming to be the reincarnation of Plato, and had a good recollection of what he wrote, and why, someone very credible subjectively, and also having some kind of verifiable objective evidence, which could shed some light on what his story of Atlantis was all about. And more importantly, tell us why the story of Atlantis was left off in the middle of a sentence, as the Critias dialogue shows, and then also tell the world why he never wrote the following and expected 3rd dialogue of the series, the Hermocrates.
And anyone claiming to have recollections, vague or otherwise, of having lived in the land of Atlantis thousands of years ago only brings discredit to the truth of reincarnation. And this goes doubly for any psychic appeasing to their paying customers' whims and wishful thinking of having had an incarnation in Atlantis.
Madam Helen Blavatsky and Edgar Cayce are to blame for this nonsense on reincarnations in Atlantis , which, starting with Blavatsky, and then followed by Cayce, they took Plato's Atlantis to "a whole different planet," as the saying goes.
From Plato's Critias dialogue:
Such was the vast power which the god settled in the lost island of Atlantis;
and this he afterwards directed against our land for the following reasons, as
tradition tells: For many generations, as long as the divine nature lasted in them,
they were obedient to the laws, and well-affectioned towards the god, whose
seed they were; for they possessed true and in every way great spirits, uniting
gentleness with wisdom in the various chances of life, and in their intercourse
with one another. They despised everything but virtue, caring little for their
present state of life, and thinking lightly of the possession of gold and other
property, which seemed only a burden to them; neither were they intoxicated
by luxury; nor did wealth deprive them of their self-control; but they were sober,
and saw clearly that all these goods are increased by virtue and friendship with
one another, whereas by too great regard and respect for them, they are lost and
friendship with them. By such reflections and by the continuance in them of a
divine nature, the qualities which we have described grew and increased among
them; but when the divine portion began to fade away, and became diluted too
often and too much with the mortal admixture, and the human nature got the
upper hand, they then, being unable to bear their fortune, behaved unseemly,
and to him who had an eye to see grew visibly debased, for they were losing
the fairest of their precious gifts; but to those who had no eye to see the true
happiness, they appeared glorious and blessed at the very time when they were
full of avarice and unrighteous power. Zeus, the god of gods, who rules according
to law, and is able to see into such things, perceiving that an honourable race
was in a woeful plight, and wanting to inflict punishment on them, that they
might be chastened and improve, collected all the gods into their most holy
habitation, which, being placed in the centre of the world, beholds all created
things. And when he had called them together, he spake as follows–2
