From an esoteric dictionary: SEVEN ROOT RACES humanity in theosophy (see) version of the origin of modern humanity.

Based on the esoteric teaching about the hierarchy of bodies (or plans, see) of a person:

1. physical body,
2. ethereal body,
3. astral body,
4. mental body (lower mind, see Manas),
5. buddhic body (abstract mind),
6. spiritual mind body and
7. causal body.

The last two bodies are .

It is assumed that intelligent life on Earth was created purposefully by a whole complex higher powers, for the description of which there are no words in human languages.

Human Origins from the point of view of Theosophy and Agni Yoga:

First Root Race (self-born)

Second root race (later-born)

Third Root Race (Lemurians)

Fourth Root Race (Atlanteans)

Fifth Root Race (Aryans)

Sixth and seventh root races

The first monads, created simultaneously with the appearance of the Earth, consisted of thin bodies and were devoid of reason. It was First race .

Gradually, all the primary monads disintegrated, and from their elements a Second race . These were monads, similar to the first, but in the course of evolution they have found a new way of reproduction, which can be described as "egg release". Gradually, this method became dominant.

And, as a result, there was The third race is the race of the Eggborn , which at the beginning also did not have a dense, physical body (the geological conditions on Earth were then not suitable for the physical existence of protein bodies).

third race, emerging at the beginning archean era , quickly developed to the level of separation of the sexes and the folding of the rudiments of the mind.

The first three sub-races (traditionally, there are seven of these sub-races within the boundaries of the "basic" races, according to Theosophy) of the Third Race gradually built up a dense shell, until, finally, during the fourth sub-race of the third race did not appear first actually people having a real physical body.

This happened in the era of dinosaurs, i.e. about 100-120 million years BC.

Dinosaurs were big, and people looked accordingly: up to 18 meters tall or more.

In subsequent subraces, their growth gradually decreased. Proof of this, according to Theosophy, fossil bones of giants and myths about giants should serve.

In the first people there was not yet a complete set of bodies: there was no conscious soul, i.e. spiritual mind bodies .

From these human-animals the higher primates (monkeys) originated. After that, according to one of the versions, the higher forces-creators, who caused intelligent life on Earth, introduced into the consciousness of people those actually rational principles, which allowed them to act as teachers of subsequent generations.

The last sub-races of the Third Race created the first intelligent human civilization on the proto-continent of Lemuria, according to other versions, Gondwana.

This continent is located in southern hemisphere and included the southern tip of Africa, Australia with New Zealand, and in the north Madagascar and Ceylon. Easter Island also belonged to the Lemurian culture.

This continent was located in the Southern Hemisphere and included the southern tip of Africa, Australia with New Zealand, and in the north Madagascar and Ceylon. Easter Island also belonged to the Lemurian culture.

At that time already born The fourth race is the Atlantean race on the mainland called Atlantis (it is assumed that its northern outskirts Atlantis extended several degrees east of Iceland, including Scotland, Ireland and the northern part of England, and southern, to the place where Rio de Janeiro is now located).

The Atlanteans were the offspring of the Lemurians who settled on another continent about a million years before the death of Lemuria.

The first two sub-races of the Atlantean race were descended from these first settlers from Lemuria. The third sub-race of the race Atlantov appeared after the death of Lemuria or Gondwana: these were the Toltecs, the Red race.

According to theosophy, the Atlanteans worshiped the Sun, and their height reached two and a half meters. The capital of the Atlantean empire was the city of the Hundred Golden Gates. Their civilization reached its peak precisely during the period of the Toltecs or the Red Race. This was about 1 million years ago.

The first geological catastrophe, which happened about 800 thousand years ago, broke the land connection of Atlantis with the future America and Europe.
The second, about 200 thousand years ago, broke the continent into several islands, large and small. Modern continents emerged.

After the third catastrophe, about 80 thousand years BC, only the island of Poseidonis remained, which sank about 10 thousand years BC.

The Atlanteans foresaw these catastrophes and took measures to save their scientists and their knowledge: they built gigantic temples in Egypt and opened the first schools of esoteric wisdom there.

Esotericism in that era acted as a kind of state philosophy and a familiar view of the world.

The highest value in the face of the threat of the destruction of the continents was considered, first of all, by the highest Initiates, thanks to whom the ancient knowledge was able to survive the millennia.

The catastrophes of Atlantis caused new waves of migrations and arose the following sub-races of the Fourth Race:

Huns (fourth sub-race),
proto-Semites (fifth),
Sumerians (sixth) and
Asians (seventh).

Asians, mixed with the Huns, are sometimes also called yellow race , a proto-Semites and their descendants who formed the Fifth Race - White.

Modern humanity interpreted by esotericism as Fifth or Aryan race , which also traditionally includes seven subraces, of which only five are currently available:

1) Indians (light-skinned tribes),
2) younger Semites (Assyrians, Arabs),
3) Iranians,
4) Celts (Greeks, Romans and their descendants),
5) Teutons (Germans and Slavs).
6-7) The Sixth and Seventh Root Races are to come later.

According to the teachings of Theosophy, all human races and their sub-races perform one or another task of human evolution. When one race completes its mission, then the next one appears to replace it, and this is always connected with the transition of human civilization to a new stage.

Topic: "Five civilizations on planet Earth"

According to volume 2 of the "Secret Doctrine" H.P. Blavatsky.

One race of aliens or an ancient civilization before the advent of man can be called reptoids. They differ in that they have scaly skin such as crocodiles, snakes in general, like all reptiles. The torso is folded, their claws are on their legs and arms. Their eyes glow green and yellow. Reptoids differ from other aliens in particular cruelty, and violence against the human race, even sexual contacts with people.

Reptoids are compared with Satan himself or his army, there is evidence that the pronunciation of the name of Christ himself causes a caustic reaction in them. Scholars who deal with the Bible closely argue that in the New Testament, reptoids are a prototype of the devil himself and appear in the form of a snake tempting the first people.

Reptoids are genetically similar to reptiles and belong to an advanced race, they see people as brainless cattle and treat them very negatively and considering people an inferior race. They consider planet Earth to be their ancient home and when they return they will have control over the entire planet. And their planet where they live is no longer suitable to support life on it, well, they are looking for another planet to live on. Some believe that the Reptoids serve the Grays.

Nowadays more about the ancients is considered highly developed civilizations, when there were no or only mammals on Earth began to emerge, these are the mysteries and secrets of history. One race of aliens or an ancient civilization before the advent of man can be called reptoids. They differ in that they have scaly skin such as that of crocodiles, snakes in general, like all reptiles. And all this became known during excavations, paleontologists found parts of the skeleton of a stenonychosaurus, its height was about one and a half meters. The lizard moved on its hind limbs (legs), and its forelimbs (hands) were very dexterous, the thumb grasping finger was especially well developed. And most importantly, he had a large skull, it could easily fit the brain of a chimpanzee. The lizard had a well-developed medulla oblongata and cerebellum just like a human. They developed a unique strategy for hunting, and therefore they could think, evaluate, understand.

About a hundred million years ago, such lizards lived, and they are a bit like a person.

One of the first stages of intelligent life includes such a concept as cynognathus, it belonged to the warm-blooded (in one stenonychosaurus, a four-chambered petrified heart was found, such as in humans and all warm-blooded animals.)

In a word, we can say that there are all the facts for the existence of intelligent dinosaurs at that time. There are opinions that this is impossible, that there was once a highly developed race of intelligent dinosaurs (reptoids or reptilians), well, this can be said about people that they allegedly appeared from mammals. Of course imagine

intelligent dinosaurs with human traits are led by the erroneous ideas of society.

In myths, there are references to snake-like creatures of the reptoid type. For example, in the Mayan civilization, "serpents of wisdom" were revered strongly, like the god Kucumats and the Aztec god Quetzalcoatl. The Hopi Indians have legends about the "sheti" snakes, which were brothers, they lived underground. The myths of India told about the "naga" reptoid inhabitants who lived underground. There are some versions about reptoids that they lived in the Pacific Ocean on the mainland that sank. The ancient Greeks in Athens had the first legendary ruler under the name of Kekrop, one half a man and the other a snake. Western European art in the Middle Ages depicted a serpent of the biblical type, as a lizard of the reptoid type, in the form of a woman with a tail.

In the nineties, they started talking about reptoids a lot more and raised this topic to the general public. One of the daredevils, John Rode, began to argue that the dinosaurs did not actually die out, but, according to his version, evolved into the so-called race of lizards, and they, like werewolves, hid among people, living a secret without posing as anything and that they control the world order, the government through such secret organizations such as the well-known Illuminati. But David Icke gave an even more incredible version and announced that the entire British royal family and former US presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, are all actually Reptoids who arrived from the stars to Earth from the Dragon system. In the end, some of the top US government began to be called "minions of lizardoids."

It is assumed that intelligent life on Earth was purposefully created by a whole complex of higher forces, for which there are no words in human languages. The first monads, created simultaneously with the emergence of the Earth, consisted of subtle bodies and were devoid of reason. It was the first race. Gradually, all the primary monads disintegrated, and the Second Race was formed from their elements. These were monads like the first ones, but they evolved to find a new way of reproducing, which can be described as "egg secretion". Gradually, this method became dominant. And as a result, the Third race arose - the race of Egg-borns, who at the beginning also did not have a dense, physical body (the geological conditions on Earth were then unsuitable for the physical existence of protein bodies). The third race, which arose at the beginning of the Archean era, quickly developed to the level of separation of the sexes and the folding of the rudiments of the mind. The first three sub-races (traditionally, there are seven of these sub-races within the boundaries of the "basic" races, according to Theosophy) of the Third Race gradually increased their dense shell, until finally, during the period of the fourth sub-race of the Third Race, the first people actually appeared, possessing a real physical body. This happened in the era of dinosaurs, i.e. about 100-120 million years BC. Dinosaurs were large, and people looked accordingly: up to 18 meters tall or more. In subsequent subraces, their growth gradually decreased. The evidence for this, according to Theosophy, must be the fossilized bones of giants and myths about giants. The first people did not yet have a complete set of bodies: there was no conscious soul, i.e. body of spiritual mind. From these human-animals the higher primates (monkeys) originated. After that, according to one of the versions, the higher forces-creators, who caused intelligent life on Earth, introduced into the consciousness of people those actually rational principles, which allowed them to act as teachers of subsequent generations.

The last sub-races of the Third race created the first intelligent civilization of people on the proto-continent of Lemuria, according to other versions - Gondwana. This continent was located in the Southern Hemisphere and included the southern tip of Africa, Australia with New Zealand, and in the north - Madagascar and Ceylon. Easter Island also belonged to the Lemurian culture. During the period of the seventh sub-race of the Third race, the civilization of the Lemurians fell into decay, and this continent itself went under water. This happened at the end of the Tertiary period, i.e. about 3 million years BC. (The third race is sometimes also called the Black race. Black tribes, African and Australian, are considered to be its descendants.) At that time, the Fourth Race was already born - the race of Atlantis on the mainland, called Atlantis (it is assumed that its northern outskirts Atlantis extended several degrees east of Iceland, including Scotland, Ireland and the north of England, and south to where Rio de Janeiro is now). The Atlanteans were the offspring of the Lemurians who settled on another continent about a million years before the death of Lemuria. The first two sub-races of the Atlantean race were descended from these first settlers from Lemuria. The third sub-race of the Atlantean race appeared after the death of Lemuria or Gondwana: these were the Toltecs, the Red Race. According to theosophy, the Atlanteans worshiped the Sun, and their height reached two and a half meters. The capital of the Atlantean empire was the city of the Hundred Golden Gates. Their civilization reached its peak precisely during the period of the Toltecs or the Red Race. This was about 1 million years ago. The first geological catastrophe, which happened about 800 thousand years ago, broke the land connection of Atlantis with the future America and Europe. The second - about 200 thousand years ago - broke the continent into several islands, large and small. Modern continents emerged. After the third catastrophe, about 80 thousand years BC, only the island of Poseidonis remained, which sank about 10 thousand years BC. The Atlanteans foresaw these catastrophes and took measures to save their scientists and the knowledge they had accumulated: they built gigantic temples in Egypt and opened the first schools of esoteric wisdom there. Esotericism in that era acted as a kind of state philosophy and a familiar view of the world. The highest value in the face of the threat of the destruction of the continents was considered, first of all, by the highest Initiates, thanks to whom the ancient knowledge was able to survive the millennia. The catastrophes of Atlantis caused new waves of migrations and the following sub-races of the Fourth Race arose: the Huns (the fourth sub-race), the proto-Semites (the fifth), the Sumerians (the sixth) and the Asians (the seventh). The Asians who mixed with the Huns are sometimes also called the Yellow Race, and the Proto-Semites and their descendants, who formed the Fifth Race, the White Race.

According to the teachings of Theosophy, all human races and their sub-races perform one or another task of human evolution. When one race completes its mission, then the next one appears to replace it, and this is always connected with the transition of human civilization to a new stage.

In accordance with the law of similarity, one could assume that, like any planet of this material universe, it first exists on the subtle plane, and then manifests itself on the physical plane, gradually becoming denser and denser, exactly the same laws are inherent in the development of man. First there is the Divine monad, which is gradually clothed in more and more dense bodies.

“Finally, in all the ancient Scriptures and Cosmogonies it is indicated that from the beginning man evolved as a luminous, incorporeal form, on top of which, like molten bronze poured into the model of the sculptor, the physical form of his body was built, by means of and from the lower forms and types of animal earth life. The Zohar states:
"Soul and Form, descending to Earth, are clothed in earthly clothing."

The authors of The Secret Doctrine give an understanding of how humanity developed in the First and subsequent Races from the Book of Dzyan and its Commentaries with which they were familiar.
In various ancient teachings, of which the Bible is only a pale reflection, Higher Spirits, Essences, Dhyan-Chohans, Logoi are mentioned (if we adhere to the terminology of the Teachings of the Ascended Masters, we can talk about the Highest Angels), which are the “first-born” Brahma, born of Mind. These creatures are divided into different classes. Now the meaning of the stanza from the Book of Dzyan, given in the Secret Doctrine, will be clear:

12. Great Kogans called upon the Lords of the Moon about the Air Bodies: "Give birth to Humans, People of your nature. Give themtheir inner forms. She isor lay down the outer shells. They will be husband-wives. The Lords of the Flame also…”
13. Let them go, each to his assigned Earth; Seven of them, each to his own Destiny. The Lords of Flame were left behind. They didn't want to go, they didn't want to create.
14. Seven Armies, Will-BornLords, aspired by the Spirit of Life-Giver, singled out People from themselves, each in his own Zone.

In accordance with the Law of Cosmic Cycles, the time has come for the humanity of this fourth round to appear on planet Earth. Apparently, this event could have happened 200-300 million years ago.
There were Entities belonging to the lunar Spirits or Pitris who agreed to create, and there were others called Lords of the Flame who refused. This gave reason to accuse these angels who refused to create of "rebellion" against God.
However, these entities "deprived of the grosser 'creative fire', and therefore unable to create a physical man, also having no Double or Astral Body to bring it forth, for they were without any 'form', are shown in exoteric allegories as Yogis, Kumaras [immaculate Youths ] who became "rebellious" Asuras, fighting and opposing the Gods, etc."

It is difficult for us to judge what really happened. But somehow, this event created a karma or a condition for the subsequent descent of these High Beings into the bodies of people in the Third Race. Now, in order not to interrupt the story, we will simply remember that there were beings in the Angelic evolution that were too pure and spiritually independent, who dared to defend their opinion and refused to “create”.

“Where there is no struggle, there is no merit. Humanity, "earthly and from the Earth", was not destined to be created by Angels from the Primary Divine Breath. That is why it is said that they refused to create, and man had to be shaped by more material creators, who, in turn, could only give what was inherent in their own nature and no more.

The obedient Angels separated from their astral bodies the shadows (Chhaya), which became the bodies of the people of the First Race.

"The First Race of Men, therefore, were merely likenesses, the Astral Doubles of their Fathers, who were the pioneers or the most advanced Essences from the previous, albeit lower, Sphere, of which our Moon is now a shell"

They were gigantic, asexual, air-form creatures 173 feet or 53 meters high (for comparison, the Statue of Liberty in New York is 105 feet or 34 meters high). These forms did not know death and dragged out an unconscious existence for millions of years, like a dream.

“Therefore the First Root-Race of men, sexless and unconscious, had to be thrown off and “hidden until a certain time”; that is, the First Race, instead of dying, disappeared into the Second Race, as certain lower lives and plants pass into their offspring. It was a total transformation. The First Race became the Second Root-Race without giving birth to it, or creating it, or dying."

The theory of the origin of mankind according to the works of E. Blavatsky.

This theory was finally formed by October 1888.
This theory was developed on the basis of Esoteric Buddhism, ancient Indian, ancient Chinese, ancient Egyptian, ancient Greek myths and legends, in addition, myths and legends of many countries were used. Christian and Jewish religious books were used. This is the largest esoteric work that connected all worldviews into one single one. At the same time, E. Blavatsiakaya completely denies Darwin's theory that man descended from apes. And vice versa, he first proclaimed that the first people participated in the creation (appearance) of monkeys and other animals.
In her book The Secret Doctrine, Blavatsky explains that all events in the universe
Occur by the will of the Almighty (the Supreme Mind, his name is different in different legends).
The first people on Earth - the first race were the offspring of the "Moon Ancestors" (intelligent beings sent to Earth from the Moon). She believes that life forms in the Universe are diverse, life exists not only on Earth, but also on the Moon, Sun, Venus, Mars, Mercury and other planets of the Universe. And all these forms of life are connected with the Higher
Beings and the Supreme Mind. The first race of people was incorporeal (without physical bodies). The First Race gave birth to the second race (also incorporeal) by budding (separation from itself). The third race of people also arose from the second race by separation from it (budding, excretion).
Gradually, the third race began to become denser, the etheric bodies of the people of the third race became denser (people began to have physical bodies). People of the third race began to look a little like modern people, but were very high (up to 50 meters exhausted). This race was at first asexual, but by 18 million years ago the people of this race were divided into men and women. By this time, people of this race (Blavatsky calls them Lemurians, although the name Asura is sometimes used). The Lemurians lived on the large mainland of Lemuria. Lemurians
The Higher Mind (Brahma), with the help of his assistants, created four categories of creatures on Earth - gods, demons, progenitors and people. Gods (suras) are the first races of people on Earth (incorporeal races), demons (asuras) are the third race of people (also incorporeal), progenitors are the third race (with physical bodies- Lemurians) and a quadruple race (Atlanteans). People are the fifth race - the descendants of the Lemurians and Atlanteans, who live at the present time. In addition, Blavatsky mentions various other forms of intelligent life on Earth - snakes, dragons, fallen angels, etc.
Blavatsky claims that the Lemurians, and especially the Atlanteans, had different skin colors - yellow, red, brown. The Lemurians received knowledge (intelligence) from the Sons of Wisdom (Sons of the Sun) and lived at first together with them. The Sons of Wisdom became the first divine dynasties that led the life of the Lemurians and Atlanteans.
The book of Blavatsky says that the Lemurians gravitated from the North Pole - to the Hyperborean Continent, and the Atlanteans - to south pole. The book says that Manu was not a man, but was a representative of the first human races. The earliest representatives of the fourth race were not Atlanteans, just as they were not human Asuras and Rakshasas (these are different branches of the Lemurians). After the death of Lemuria from subterranean fires (Lemuria went under water), the Lemurians and Atlanteans began to constantly decrease in growth. Most big flood 850,000 years ago, darkness sank most of Atlantis and the remnants of Lemuria. This flood was preserved in the memory of the Aryans (as the people of the fifth, modern race are called).
Our races testify to the same thing, that they originated from the Divine Races, no matter what name the latter are called. In addition to the Lemurians, other names were also applied to the third race of people - Titans, Kabirs, Devas. Blavatsky's book says that our fifth race already existed about 1,000,000 years ago, based on the descendants of the Hyperboreans and Atlanteans.
According to her calculations, the Third Race was already during the Triassic epoch, since several mammals already existed at that time. In the Eocene, Miocene, Pliocene epochs, the Third Race has now almost completely disappeared, carried away by the terrible cataclysm of the Secondary Age, leaving behind only a few mixed races.
The fourth, born millions of years before the said catastrophe, perished during the Miocene period, when the Fifth (our Aryan Race) already had a million years of independent existence.

I have been studying for a long time (and studying the works of Blavatsky) and I consider this theory the most correct (although there are some points and interpretations that I do not like). But on the basis of this theory, it is quite understandable to explain the presence of many incomprehensible academic science facts ( archaeological finds age 500-200 million years)
According to this theory, it is not man who descended from the monkey, but vice versa - the appearance of monkeys on Earth is the result of activity during the existence of the most ancient human civilizations.
