Good morning. Thank you.
After the two previous talks,
I must refer to them.
There was something that caught my attention:
both have emphasized
one word that I believe is crucial everywhere,
and also at a business school.
The word "humanity."
Sor Lucia Caram talked about humanity,
Angel Bonet finished talking about humanity,
but before that, he made a really interesting reference to robots.
Let's see, robots.
This takes me back because, as you can see,
my talk somehow represents going back to the future,
though it may look like going back to the past.
Let's go back to the past.
The Bible, what does it talk about?
It's about a primitive time in which men didn't work,
it creates a worldly paradise in which men simply lived.
Now, the question is who did all the work in that paradise,
in the case - I mean, if we go beyond the mythical part
that it certainly has.
Greeks talk about a robot in Crete,
and according to Angel Bonet, in 30 years,
I'm sorry, I don't know if it'll be in 30 years,
maybe a little bit more -
we will have 30% of the jobs done by robots.
Alright, the thing is, what about humanity?
What about the distribution of wealth?
Since that distribution is not based,
or it's based according to the working hours,
how many people work and how many don't?
In a society in which robots do all the work,
men could focus on creative activities.
The question is, does that take us back to the worldly paradise?
So, let's talk, in this same context
about a myth, about something that was a myth until today: Atlantis.
I mean, Atlantis from a doctoral thesis view,
a thesis about Ancient Egypt which, surprisingly,
gives us the certainty that Atlantis was a reality.
So, from here on,
all the research carried out for 14 years turns into a business project,
a groundbreaking research project that dare to go beyond
the well known and accepted reality up to now,
and I think it's one of the major topics that business projects -
the risks they involve,
imagine, create, imagine, create, innovate.
Of course, any research project has a question,
and a question after another is what allows us to find answers.
In the case of Atlantis, the question is,
Did Atlantis really ever exist?
For now, this is one greatest ancient enigmas,
and the other question is, How is it possible that nobody
could find an answer to these mysteries?
But as you can see, evidence of its existence is coming to light.
The analysis of the size of Atlantis
only comes to us through Plato.
Plato starts to define a series of six concentric circles
which presents us the first evidence of its existence,
because, as you can see, here we have six earth and water consecutive
concentric circles which come down to prime numbers.
If you multiply by 6, you get the size in Plethrons,
this is the measurement in stadiums,
but the Plethron happens to be a second arch
of half the Earth's circumference.
Sure, the question is, Did the Ancients know the Earth's circumference?
So far, that's not what history is telling us.
But apart from that, let's try to go further.
Let's break molds.
I'm telling you, the size of Atlantis offered by Plato
includes the knowledge of the list of prime numbers.
Well, we could take that off,
but it includes something much more important.
If we add up the perimeters of the 6 circumferences from Atlantis,
that equals 1621 Plethrons, and the sum of the diameters
equals 258 Plethrons,
because 1621 happens to be
number 258 in the list of prime numbers.
If we divide both numbers,
it equals an approximation of Pi, more exactly 2Pi.
That's a lot more than the Greeks knew, they only reached 3.14
and here they're reaching 3.1415, remember it's 3.141592.
So, this geometric structure implies
that whoever designed it knew perfectly well number Pi.
This could seem a coincidence if we limit ourselves
only to this test, but there are many more.
Another evidence, in fact, the very first one,
arises from the reconstruction of the Great Pyramid.
Until now, nobody knew what it was like.
But there was a time
while I was doing a very meticulous computer work,
when I could find an exact reconstruction in my thesis,
and I found something really strange -
there's a formula that validates the accuracy of the reconstruction.
The following analysis of the Great Pyramid
shows us a lot of data, let's say it's the Big Data,
somehow.
It concentrates in a single monument that is somehow explaining
knowledge from the past.
You may ask, Why does this monument gather that knowledge?
Let's see.
So, this scientific data is between 3 and 4 millennia ahead
from scientific discoveries.
One piece of information I found, the first one,
which really surprised me,
is the fact that the area of the Great Pyramid
was exactly 100 thousand times number Pi with 6 decimals.
That meant, exactly, going 3 or 4 thousand years
ahead of maths' scientific progress.
This is what I called "secret code,"
but it's actually called gematria.
In Greek, each number had a letter
followed by an apostrophe.
1 was Alpha followed by an apostrophe
and 800 was Omega followed by an apostrophe.
Let's take the word Atlantis. We substitute all the values,
and we get 892.
We've researched 6 000 words,
and only one, the word Atlantis,
contains number 892, which repeats over and over again
in the Great Pyramid of Giza.
There we have it, and in case we were missing something,
the sarcophagus we put the cap on top
and we compare with the Great Pyramid, the relation is 1 to 892 thousand.
That is, if we repeat 892 thousand times the size of the sarcophagus,
we would get the area of the Great Pyramid.
Now, the question is,
"892 means Atlantis, but what about the thousand?"
This happens to be the millennial anniversary monument
of the destruction of Atlantis.
For that reason, in memory of their dead ancestors
there's all this information included within the monument.
How do we know that?
They used to have these stellar channels
to the north and south,
coming from both chambers,
and these stellar channels point to crossings from Mars,
through the meridian, and it gives the date from the year
2530, specifically October 3rd,
which coincides a thousand years later with the data from Plutarch
about the death of Osiris.
With the position of the sun, the moon and the date
I could work out which was the date,
thanks to the wonderful astronomy software out in the market.
How is this explained? If we analyze the myth of Osiris,
we realize that he's nothing but the personification of Atlantis,
Atlantis' personification.
What other evidence do we have?
The texts from the Temple of Edfu,
very interpreting, but look at this,
they're written in hieroglyphs.
A wonderful story, the texts of the reconstruction
of the Temple of Edfu, which say the wisdom of Egypt
comes from seven wisemen from "The primitives land."
This was an island which sank into the sea
due to a sudden flood
which killed almost all its inhabitants.
So, water cataclysm. Look what the Bible says
and what the Gilgamesh myth says,
it talks about a flood,
water cataclysm, it's a parallelism.
So, the fact that the Great Pyramid had so much built-in science
led me to a specific analysis of the monument,
and I found very surprising things.
And also in Giza.
Geometry connected the location of Atlantis
which we could locate after years of research.
Where did this idea come from? Geometry links the Great Pyramid
with nearby cities, as we can see here.
This also occurred with the monument group,
Sure, in order to find a place you need directions and distance,
and the question is, In which direction is Atlantis?
How far away is Atlantis? The answer is in Giza.
But it's not only there, it's also in Egypt.
We have scientific evidence about its location
in geometry, maths, astronomy, geodesy, geography and mythology,
among other disciplines.
Cross-discipline connections have been the key
in finding Atlantis.
So, it's here.
We have a lot of evidence on its location,
and we know it's been under these waters for 5545 years.
Now, the question is, Which was the cause of destruction?
I already told you, a huge cataclysm in the form of a flood,
and the other question is, Is it possible to unveil a city
at the bottom of the sea?
Well, Heraklion is 6 km away
from the coast of Egypt and only 10 meters deep,
and it wasn't discovered until 2000.
How big was Atlantis?
If we compare it with Barcelona, it's the size of the wider part
plus three blocks of houses.
Obviously, the bigger a city -
we're talking about a city with 5 km of diameter -
the easier it is to be located.
What happened when I showed the discoveries about the Great Pyramid
to the press?
To my amazement, there were 16 million people in Spain only,
and we were only talking about the reconstruction of the pyramid.
I presented it to the Spanish National Research Council,
I created a specific subject in the School of Architecture
because it's unusually important.
Another issue that arised in the previous talks
is communication.
If people don't know about something, it doesn't exist,
and this is valuable for the business.
It's advertising value was the first thing
that made us think this was a self-financing project.
Today we know - we were talking about the future of humanity,
we talked about going back to the future, now let's see why.
Today, we know Project Atlantis
makes us rewrite the history of civilization.
The technology they used
to build the Great Pyramid is unknown.
They moved 100, 200 and 400 ton blocks in Giza.
Nowadays, it would be difficult to move and cut them.
The question is, Why did they do it?
There can only be one answer.
They wanted to show their tech knowledge,
they wanted to show who they were.
Imagine we go to the future,
imagine that 300 or 400 years have passed
and we've found a way to travel to the past.
Sometimes it seems
that the Great Pyramid and Giza was built by travelers from the future.
It's science fiction, obviously,
but it's closely related with the title of the talks.
Why am I telling this? Because a lot of tech elements
are there, and we have no explanation for that.
Until the XX c. we still don't have the math and scientific discoveries
that the monument has, and I can't describe in detail.
I think here, we're always agreeing on a key idea,
that is service to humanity.
Project Atlantis can't be measured
only in economic terms because of the significance
of the discovery of Atlantis
to the history of civilization and to the future of humanity.
We still have to understand what happened,
and probably, one of the greatest myths will fall down,
the myth of contemporaneity, of continuous progress
in humanity.
As a species, we're so arrogant
that we can't accept we've had a breakdown
and we had to start from scratch.
This is becoming evident.
So, we have to ask ourselves, What would've happened
if the earthquake in Fukushima had 2, 3 or 4 more degrees
in the Richter scale? Which area of Japan would've disappeared if that tsunami
took away the tech in Fukushima to the bottom of the sea
releasing a great amount of radioactivity?
When Yahveh says in the bible, "I forbid you to eat
from the tree of the knowledge," the question is,
Isn't he telling us about a previous destruction,
and maybe about an energy chaos?
I'll leave that question hanging.
Which are the means needed to find the Atlantis?
An oceanographic ship and a submarine, that's it.
Clearly, all means.
So, we have the knowledge
and together - because this is a large scale project -
we could begin the biggest adventure of the XXI c.
which would be finding Atlantis.
And maybe, just maybe, it's just a hypothesis,
this could represent going back to the future.
Here's the logo of Project Atlantis.
As you can see, it's just the circles from Atlantis,
and the channel, because there was a channel
with 50 stadiums that reached the city.
Now I'll ask you to do something,
focus there for a moment.
See? What's this? Do you know what this is?
I'll go back. Can you see that the rings are repeated?
They're projected. Do you know what this is?
Anyone?
Public: the galaxy.
No, but you're close.
It's a comet,
and the question we ask today is, Did Atlantis have this shape
because it wanted to tell us about a comet?
To conclude, my thought is that research projects
have to be business projects, because in our system
there's no other way of carrying them out.
It's necessary in every research project,
and every business project, to use the imagination,
the work, the objective and rational research
through a doctoral thesis and the like,
and from there, find projects that could be useful for everyone,
useful for humanity.
Maybe Atlantis, with its message,
contained a help request to save the planet,
we don't know.
Thank you.
