War is a State of Mind and Much More

The current situation in Eastern Europe and the Middle East are reminders of what war is & why we must abolish it. War with UAP intelligences is impossible. Peace starts as a state of mind.

Although the US has only 4.24 percent of world’s population, The United States Department of Defense’s share of global military expenditures is about 40 % ($916 billion in 2023). Wars over millennia have been fought over territory, for religious reasons, to gain natural resources and human slaves. In terms of ruling elites, posing as the protectors from enemies both real and imagined, is an effective way of gaining support from a population. This is because a frightened people are often more easily controlled.

Since 2017, prominent former members of the US defense and intelligence communities have described UFOs (now officially called UAP) as an air safety and national security issue. If the intelligences responsible for “Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena” chose to wage war against humanity, it certainly would not be an equal conflict. This is not only because UFOs likely employ tremendously powerful energy systems for propulsion, but also because they outmaneuver our planet’s most advanced military aircraft. There is, however, an even more important reason why war with UFO intelligences would not result in a terrestrial victory.  This is because of the monumental psychic capabilities of the non-human intelligences (NHIs) associated with UFOs.  As a UAP contact experiencer, I know that these “Others”:

1.Are totally telepathic

2.have full access to every experiencer’s entire storehouse of memories

3.can induce altered states of consciousness and 

4.create sensory illusions akin to what we call “Virtual Reality” in targeted humans (for more details follow links to blogs on the Virtual Experience Model below.)

With such awesome psychic powers, these NHIs would be able to confound every soldier and defeat any army sent against them

At the current time, the societal discussion has been limited to the reports of witnesses describing anomalous lights in the sky and what are often perceived of as physical craft with astounding flight characteristics.  The enormous body of experiencers who reportedly have been in contact and communication with UAP NHIs is nearly completely ignored. 

Mostly in the arena of science fiction is there any focus on encounters that people might be having with the so-called “space aliens.”  For those who are interested in human non-human interactions, information can be found in work of the Dr Edgar Mitchell Foundation for Research into Extraterrestrial and Extraordinary Encounters(FREE). This group designed an in-depth survey administered to several thousand self-described UAP contact experiencers. The project consisted of hundreds of multiple-choice questions as well as a written portion. The findings of this study can be found in the book “Beyond UFOs” with  Rey Hernandez as the one of the authors and this anthology’s primary editor. 

I advise those who truly want peace to look both outwards towards the manipulations of oligarchs/corporate elites as well as more importantly inwards, toward those ego-based mind structures that promote war from within the thoughts of each person

In my view, true spiritual development has little to do with the many stories that followers of various organized religions tell themselves again and again. I believe that spiritual development occurs by following the path of diminishing the power of egoic mind structures. What is the ego? One definition for ego is a near complete identification with form. This includes both things and thought forms

According to Eastern spiritual traditions, those that let the ego run their lives are forever trying to enhance their sense of self by having more. This usually means more money, attention, sexual gratification, and more power over others. However, with the ego in charge, no possession is ever enough. Thus insatiable desires are created that typically lead to dissatisfaction.  In addition, we should recognize that although the ego identifies with form, it also goes beyond mere identification. The ego takes over when we are in survival mode, when the form we defend is one’s human body. Concerns about survival allows the ego to play a major role in problem solving and in most people this leads to incessant thinking. Our thoughts create a continuous “voice in the head” dwelling on the past with regrets and anxiety  about the future. 

In this manner, uncontrolled thinking can become addictive. It is sometimes called the “monkey mind” with its continuous uncontrolled chatter.  Meditation and its equivalents, like walking in nature, making art and playing music are wonderful because they can terminate the ego’s incessant thinking. These activities facilitate our focusing on the here and now.  

The ego has nothing do with states of being that we call, “peace, love and joy.” According to Eastern spiritual traditions, these states of being come from no-thing, i.e. that formless place that spiritual seekers often call “universal consciousness.” Following this dictum, I endeavor to meditate, make peace from within and work for peace in the outside world of form that is called “external physical reality.” 

Comment and Reply

On another social media page, a question was asked by a commenter in response to this posting. She wanted to know if the stupidity of war would ever end. 

My response is as follows,

“I suspect that victims of the massive Aztec human sacrifices in Pre-Columbian Mexico might have asked a similar question. “When will people stop cutting out beating human hearts for the “Sun God?” We now no longer have human sacrifice in the Aztec tradition. It is my belief, my hope, that someday war will have gone the same way as ritual human sacrifice. There are those that say it is “impossible to end all wars.” My reply to them is, “We must be realists, demand ‘the impossible!’”

This blog is a detailed analysis of the reasons for 75 years of denial of the reality of UFOs. Flying Saucers threaten our planet’s elites, but not the Earth’s people.

In the long run, a social movement based on an accurate assessment of those opposing contact with UAP intelligences will be required. I believe such a social movement should be called “a cosmic peace movement.”
