In a past posting, I suggested that UAP intelligences are not only totally telepathic, but also capable of monitoring communications on social media. In a light-hearted way, one reader commented that if an ET were monitoring our online discussion that she essentially wanted to be “beamed up.”
My response is as follows.
WISH DREAM OF ALIEN RESCUE
The wish dream of an alien rescue mission for selected individuals reminds me of other hopes for deliverance by what are imagined to be spiritual entities associated with conventional religions. Alas, I strongly suspect that such popular religious beliefs will not help us to focus on the tasks of working for change here and now on Earth. In a passive mode, we often hope for solutions to our personal and societal problems to come from a “higher power,” in this case “aliens.”
ET HYPOTHESIS MIGHT BE TOO SIMPLISTIC
Although the ET hypothesis in my judgment is the most popular explanation for UFO phenomenon, it certainly has not been totally proven yet. This is especially so, since according to the Virtual Experience Model that I have postulated, the so-called aliens have the capability of employing technologically created “illusions” as mechanisms of contact. Thus, the nature of the intelligences responsible for flying saucers is still a mystery. Given the enormous complexity of flying saucer associated phenomena, prominent researchers like Dr. Jacques Vallee and the late John Keel have repeatedly challenged the ET Hypothesis as being too simplistic to be accepted as a singular explanation for UFOs.
For decades witnesses reporting encounters with UFO associated non-human intelligences have described the so-called aliens expressing concern about war, nuclear weapons, and environmental destruction. The results of the FREE Foundation’s Experiencer Survey were published in Rey Hernandez’ anthology “Beyond UFOs.” Many of the thousands of witnesses in that extensive survey described experiencing dramatic changes in their worldviews associated with being contacted by non-human intelligences. The responders stated that their contacts led them to become, more spiritual, altruistic, and concerned about the environment. These changes in consciousness for many are so radical that they appear to be like those occurring after Near Death Experiences.
Contact activists, such as Rahma’s Enrique Villanueva, have concluded that the aim of contact with “extraterrestrials” is an “expansion of human consciousness.” With this analysis in mind, I strongly suspect that only after our civilization has evolved to the point where we have world peace will we be collectively allowed to know who and what they are.
Whatever the points of origin of UFO intelligences are: ET, “interdimensional”, or someplace stranger, in my opinion only a profound spiritual development and resultant progressive change in human society will allow us to join a larger community of advanced civilizations (if such things exists). In on our current state, on a planet ruled by the greedy and the violent, UFO intelligences probably correctly view us as technologically advanced savages.My assessment for the future of our human family is a harsh one. We will either evolve both spiritually and societally, or our civilization will probably be destroyed, leaving the survivors to live under conditions of barbarism.
NEITHER SCIENCE NOR FAITH WILL LIKELY SOLVE THE FLYING SAUCER MYSTERY
In many ways, ufology is not only a pseudo-science but is also a pseudo-religion. I suspect that many UFO fans believe that science will deliver meaningful answers to the UFO challenge. In this discussion, we should not confuse science with scientism. So called “scientific ufology” in my opinion is a secular based belief system that has an unfounded faith in science as the highest arbiter of truth. Yet how can it apply to what is likely an array of non-human intelligences that not only are totally telepathic, smarter than any human scientist, but also deliberately choose to confuse those who attempt to study them under “controlled conditions”? One simply need look at the failure of Robert Bigelow and Brandon Fugal’s investigations into the place called “Skinwalker Ranch”, to see how easily UFO associated intelligences deliberately confound professional scientists.
As far as the “pie in the sky” notion of alien rescue, let’s have no illusions here. We, the people of Earth, are going to have to save ourselves through a series of monumental efforts to protect the environment, end war and the causes of war. If not, in my opinion, there will be a series of crises that will threaten the existence of our civilization. I am talking here about a massive “die out.”
In the not-too-distant future, we will be faced with the following: a runaway greenhouse effect, temperatures and oceans rising markedly, more droughts, floods and resultant famines and endless wars fought over diminished resources. In a few generations, a massive a reduction of our population might occur. Sadly, billions of us may have to “go see God together.”
So, let’s put aside childish notions of alien rescue, although I must admit that on occasion, I too have contemplated such a fantasy of being “beamed up” to safety. Let us work to inform people about the UFO phenomenon not as if it were religion or a “nuts and bolts” engineering problem, but rather as a potential vehicle for personal and societal enlightenment that will lead to unified corrective actions. If we fail in the tasks of healing our wounded planet and ourselves, then my guess is that for any possible “ETs” present on Earth, we just won’t be worth saving.
Addendum:There are also the practical considerations of potential biohazards that prevent us from being “beamed up,” and in the process having close physical contact with non-human life forms. Conceivably ETs and humans carry in their bodies potentially devastating pathogens against one another. I suspect this might be one of the reasons why “UFO Intel” stages theater of the mind encounters that we recall as if they were physical rather than mental events. This mechanism is part of the Virtual Experience Model that I mentioned above. I suspect that this theory of contact bursts the bubble of many with the ironic view that only physical contacts as portrayed in the movies are “real.” Mind stuff I suspect is what most of our universe is made of, although one can’t touch, taste or smell thoughts.
THOUGHT FORMS ARE ALSO “REAL.”
Mental contact that occurs in a virtual or “Matrix” like reality, what I call a Virtual Experience of the Second Kind, as well as virtual memory or VE-3, are also “real”, even though they are mental constructs. The notion that only 4D reality, the kind we experience in usual states of consciousness is “real” and that mental encounters are not, says more about our limitations, namely the predominant metaphysical belief in physicalism, than it does about what has been called the “full spectrum of reality” that UAP Intelligences employ when interacting with us.
Only once we acknowledge that these extraordinary phenomena involve our co-creating in the psi realm contact experiences with the so-called ETs, will we, in my judgment, begin to understand what is truly going on.
FLYING SAUCER INTELLIGENCES ARE LIKELY IN THE “BELIEF BUSINESS.”
One of pet term for the alleged “aliens” is TOWCET. It is pronounced, “toe set.” This acronym stands for The Others We Call “ET.” From the learned investigations of Dr. Jacques Vallee and Mr. John Keel, it becomes clear that TOWCET has probably been in the belief business for ages. As disturbing as it might be, we should ask the question, “Have our religions perhaps been shaped by our interacting with super-intelligences that we now call “the extraterrestrials?”
PLAYING WITH FIRE
Even if “they” possess the awesome power to co-create with us entire belief systems, we should cautiously speculate in this regard. I am concerned about what in the past has happened with the Protestant Reformation and in the present involving the crisis of Islam with the Sunnis fighting the Shias. To challenge established religions can provoke terrible violence. I am suggesting that such a heretical view is in a sense “playing with fire.” Any disclosure of an “ET” presence must be carefully prepared for, to minimize the damage caused by likely violent responses on a planet already ravaged by intolerance, hate, fear and endless warfare.
THE PERNICIOUS ROLE OF THE EGO
From a spiritual point of view the “ego” can be viewed as a false sense of self. The ego is a mental structure which identifies with form, both physical objects and thought forms. Spiritual teachers have labeled this identification with form as a “core error.” According to the followers of Buddhism the ego has turned our world into “the nightmare of the day.”
Twenty-five years ago, when I first started listening to the spiritual teacher Eckert Tolle’s audio books “The Power of Now” and “The New Earth”, I had great difficulty internalizing his message. I suspect it was my core materialistic ideology that made me forget the simple lessons of Tolle. Each time I replayed the audiotape, it was like I had never heard the words before. I urge all disclosure and contact workers to study Eckert Tolle’s books. In California his audio books are in many Public Libraries.
If we are to create a social movement that links UFOs to possible solutions for the crises facing our civilization, that campaign must have at its foundation an identification with the formless, i.e. Consciousness itself. Tolle describes this as unbounded consciousness as “being” and not with any of the infinite physical or thought form creations that exist in the Cosmos.
SPIRITUAL TRANSFORMATION WILL BE REQUIRED
Without activists undergoing a profound transformation of consciousness, a future cosmic peace campaign that I have envisioned will surely flounder. Without this change in consciousness, prominent members of the cause (that are called its “leaders”) will be unable to separate what is good for them personally, from that which is needed to win a struggle benefiting all. How often have we complained about the misdeeds of gurus, “charismatic” leaders, and hucksters in the carnival like environments that are the ufology and the New Age subcultures?
How often have we failed to see that the core error exists, not only in those that exploit others in service to their egos, without recognizing and struggling against those same dark forces existing within ourselves? Although it may sound ambitious to the point of being grandiose, I urge those that might want to be part of a grand campaign to save Earth civilization, to look deeply within. And I will endeavor to do the same.
For me simple explanations are the most useful. My focus is rather specific, and it has to do with a vision of facilitating a peaceful spiritual movement based on the concepts and practices of Eastern mysticism and what is too often labeled a political “leftist” analysis of society as its superstructure. These two components, spiritual and political, I hope will enable a mass movement to unite the planet based on cooperation and mutual respect. As I have posted before on these social media pages,
“We look inwards, into the formless realms of consciousness to become the change we want to see in the world. We look outwards, to find kindred activists souls to make those changes in the world of form.”
One Mind, one creation, one love, one people!
Additional blogs on the psychosocial/political challenges in the UFO field:
You can’t control a person who wants “no thing.” I suspect that Flying Saucer Intelligences are feared by our planet’s elites because they can’t be controlled by the usual methods applied to the general population. If we start to identify, not with things and thought forms, but rather with universal consciousness, then ultimately, we cannot be controlled either.
Confirmation rather than the big “D” Disclosure is likely the next step in the gradual acclimatization program. The possibilities of linking flying saucers to solutions for major terrestrial problems is discussed.
If flying saucer intelligences threaten all terrestrial elites, but not necessarily the Earth’s people, then it is understandable that governmental response to UFOs is a counterintelligence one.
