Okay. I think there might be something to a variety of mythological creatures and beings from folklore. I'm not ready to give this subject matter full credibility, but I think it is an area worthy of more critical study.

'Atlantis' is a subject that has always intrigued me. It seems somehow in-between reality and myth.

Maybe.

Oh really? That's fascinating. Do you have any examples?
He is the one, that is anyone who heard the voice of Brahma (or his God) while others did not hear it.I am sorry to not understand your question (i.e. who is the 'he' in the second sentence?). Maybe expand your thoughts.
My apologies for on re-reading it, I find that he could have referred to Brahma.

If you do an internet search on Japanese Tsunami Ghost Stories you can find many things even involving temple priests. Enjoy!
Well there are many gods in Hinduism. People feel they receive visions and communication all the time and I'm sure not everyone hears them. I believe there are innumerable above the physical plane beings that can communicate with us.
If memory serves me correctly, his uncle (along with a friend of his) picked a girl up near the Golden Gate bridge who was acting distressed. She got in the back and did not respond to questions. They figured she had been in an accident and were asking her if she needed to go to a hospital or the police. Somewhere along the way, before they got to the other side of the Golden Gate, she vanished from the back seat. They were freaked out, understandably.
She might have been a suicide, since the Golden Gate Bridge is one of the top suicide destinations in the world.
A possibility. A car wreck is something else I consider as other accounts of phantom hitchhikers seemed to be associated with areas where a wreck occurred. Exactly why someone would be reborn as a ghost, I hesitate to say. The Buddha teaches the ghost realm is a possible destination for rebirth and considers it a bad birth. The Buddha typically uses the adjective "hungry" in connection with ghosts. They are driven by desires that they can never fulfill. They are not considered evil; but, they can be dangerous.
I tend to view ghosts as spirits who have gone through intense trauma and haven't processed it or let go, and so aren't prepared to move on. They need to be helped by experienced (actual) mediums or shamans at times, or to reach out to those on this plane of existence that they may still have ties to.

About a year ago I came across a site where it was stated Ishwara wasThe God and all others were demi-gods and as such were avatars of Ishwara. Brahma was seen more as a Pantheistic God.
Hindus do not worship the idols but use them as a focal point for that which lies above and beyond.
Atlantis is mentioned in the Sanskrit writings; where it was situated and what it's people looked like.
Because, it happens! It just hasn't happened to you. There are simply too many incidents to discount it out of hand.
I'll tell you something else....it probably never will happen to you. I think apparently the "ruler of this world" -- John 12:31 -- is happy where you're at, in life. Only you can change that, my friend!

That's it, right there, George....."forces unknown to current science."
It's a masterful enemy, when he can get you to think he doesn't even exist!
I think you are confusing Brahma with Brahman (with a 'n').

And yet even more unsubstainted claims are thrown at me like they have meaning...
Where was it located?
A bit south from Gabraltar i.e near north coast of Africa near Meditarranean sea.
You stimulated my curiosity so I went looking and came upon the following link which I found to be very interesting reading.
