The Yugas In-Depth
The 24,000 Year Cycle of Man's Rise and Fall

March 2-4, 2012   Puru Selbie

People are fascinated by ancient anomalies: the advanced mathematical knowledge embedded in the ancient Indian Vedas; the unexplained precision construction of the Great Pyramid; Peru's Nazca lines which reveal enormous animal shapes only when high above them; an ancient map which accurately depicts a coastline of Antarctica that has been under ice for thousands of years – just to name a few. What can explain these and other anomalies? Ancient aliens are often put forward. But there is another explanation – that mankind's knowledge rises and falls in a 24,000 year cycle of yugas, or ages – and that our ancestors possessed knowledge and abilities since lost in the dark ages. Nor is the insight the yugas provide limited to the past: having left behind the dark ages, we have entered a new energy age, once again on our way to re-claiming the lost knowledge of our ancient forebears.

	Author and lecturer Joseph (Puru) Selbie is the co-author of The Yugas: Keys to Understanding Our Hidden Past, Emerging Energy Age, and Enlightened Future. Puru studied ancient Western cultures at the University of Colorado and ancient Eastern cultures at UC Berkeley. For over thirty years he has taught and lectured on the yugas and the principles of Eastern philosophy, throughout the U.S. and Europe. Puru lives with his wife at Ananda Village, a spiritual community in Northern California. He is the founder and CEO of Tristream, a web development, marketing, and application design firm and is considered an expert in the field of interaction design.
