A topic of interest for me. In fact, I’m quite fascinated by this topic. I’m definitely not a promoter of this model, or of any model for that matter. These things are not set in stone for me. I feel we the common people know very little when it comes to nature of reality, space, consciousness, or even our own planet. We have much, much to learn still.

Out of the Bottomless Pit

Legends Abound
Legends abound throughout many cultures about the origin of the first people who inhabited the earth. Some describe a race appearing from inside the earth. For example Indian folklore tells of "white tribes that live in the earth" appearing occasionally from caves. A series of Cave drawings from India shows a group of people emerging from a hollow void beneath the earth. According to local legends these were the first human beings that left a subterranean world to begin populating the surface world.
Native American legends from the Mandan, Sioux and Tuscaroras include their tribal origins as coming from inside the earth. Eskimos have the same tribal teachings. The Shawnees claim a civilization of "whites" lived in Florida before they arrived and left their buildings going back into caves in the earth. Incas have a similar folklore of a subterranean white race that travels via caves. From China, Iceland and the South American Aztec’s their writings tell of an inner domain created by the "gods" for the first humans. An Eastern legend describes the origin of Adam came from inside the earth. A Hindu legend adds that Adam was a king of a group who fled a great cataclysm into the hollow earth and then returned to repopulate afterward. Tibetan monks refer to two underground areas Shambala and Agatha as underground dwelling places for ascended masters and others. Orpheus went into the earth to seek out Euridice of Greek mythology, Apollo’s real home was among the Hyperboreans inside the earth of Roman Mythology. The Valkries descended and ascended into an inner domain in Nordic mythology. Even today, the Bon Po sect of Tibet claim to be in contact with underground masters and the "King of the World"; Lord Maitreya, in tunnels and caverns in the Himalayan mountains.
Names like Agharti, Shamballa, Shangri-La, Thule, Arktos, Valhalla, and Hades all speak of different cultural beliefs in an inner earth. The concept in myth and legend is truly as universal as the Flood.

I stay barefoot as much as possible. I don’t like wearing anything on my feet ever. I was born and raised in Russia, so of course there during cold seasons you have to wear warm socks and shoes, but for the past 25 years I’ve lived in Jacksonville Florida, and here you can pretty much remain barefoot most of the year. My feet are now used to walking on any surface because of walking barefoot for so many years. I’m glad that this documentary educates the public about the importance of our bare feet connecting with the earth’s surface, and exposes the damage that is caused by shoes. I would add however that they are missing the bigger picture. It’s much bigger than modern humans no longer being naturally grounded due to shoewear. There is a problem with pretty much every aspect of modern civilization. Modern humanity is absolutely disconnected from the organic systems and cycles of earth. Modern urban cities are like farms for domesticated human cattle. Modern urban cities are like artificial environments that shield us, disconnect us from the rest of the organic nature that surrounds us on this planet. We exist as aliens on earth. Everything we use, and consume is artificial, inorganic, synthetic, and everything we do is unnatural
