First we all need to understand a profound truth regarding reality. Our physical existence consists of two separate components. The one we know and understand is our physical body. The second is our physical light body whose compatible physical density is at best a thousandth of our observed body or likely massing under a couple of ounces. Yet this light body has an information content that is at least millions of times richer that our physical body. This information is retained with photons that are well bound in the light body.
Because of this clarity, it is time to revisit Adamski which i dismissed when i first encountered him at least forty years ago. It is noteworthy that this starts of with the understanding that reported interactions with light bodies are the source of our tales of angels.
My point is that he is apparently describing something that i understand as essentially plausible and true only in the past couple of years.
The critical takehome is that the important part of all existence happens to be the individual light body which contains almost all the information making up ourselves. Read this as illumination.

The dust jacket illustration was accurately
painted by Jim
Nichols from the descriptions in Chapter 6 of the landed mother-ship and
four
smaller craft that came out of it and parked on the grass- Three human
beings
got out of each of the smaller craft and came up to the two witnesses
and
introduced themselves. The cigar-shaped mother-ship was estimated to be
300 to 350 feet long and the smaller craft were about 20 feet in
diameter. The play of light and color was
astounding.
The starships in this case were occasionally observed to surround
themselves with a cloudlike white vapor to protect themselves from unwanted
observation. The photograph on the dust jacket rear face seems to show this
operation in progress. This picture was taken by Mr. Lauersen as he was walking
his dog near Viborg, Jutland, Denmark, at 09:00 on 17 November 1974.

Notes
from the Book Jacket
This book will, at first reading, be greeted by many with
amazement and disbelief. One must read it a second time before asking oneself
the question, "—and what if it is true?"
For, in reality, it may all be true. And, actually, it is true!
All that which is described in this book really happened. To be
sure, aside from the claim of the author and the corroboration of companions in
the adventure, the 'proof' is meager, but it is precisely this that assures
that the message will be entrusted to men of good will, because they will sense
in their hearts the deep truth of it all.
And now the facts: Giorgio, Tina, Paolo, and other friends have a
number of 'eye-to-eye' contacts with space brothers, with rides in starships,
and with conversations, in which it is revealed to them that they are the
so-called 'angels' of the Bible, or mediators and messengers of those who
served God's will, and still serve, to reveal the truth to men of Earth, and to
guide them on the path toward higher development.

[ i have already reached this conjecture and it conforms well with other independent reports as well - arclein ]
In the course of such meetings, the group received important
revelations and messages of utmost seriousness, which concern all the
inhabitants of this afflicted planet. The invitation to follow paths to a
better way of life is well advised, for the time of great catastrophies and
dreadful happenings about which the Apocalypse speaks is coming nearer; the day
in which "one will be taken away and the other left behind."
On the occasion of one of these unusual meetings, the Earthly
friends, who had been entrusted with messages and teachings, and had been
guests on the flying saucers and the starships, were allowed to have the
wonderful experience of visiting a distant planet, just as had happened to
George Adamski nearly thirty years before.
These contacts and revelations seem, in retrospect, in many ways
similar, both in outer form and in content, to those of Fatima,
Lourdes, Garabandal, LaSalette and others of that sort; yes, they represent a
translation in the context of present day circumstances, and the reading and,
above all, the understanding of this work is important and perhaps decisive for
every person.

PREFACE
On the 10th of May 1990 I gave a UFO lecture
in Rochester, New York, which was sponsored by Bill and Rhoda Sherwood.
That was also the first day of an
extended three week European tour to renew old acquaintences and to pick
up new
information in exchanges of data from UFO investigations. That round
trip
turned out to be a most profitable one indeed in terms of new and
astounding
information.
Before leaving Rochester, Bill Sherwood gave me a small book
which he had translated from German some years before. It was originally
written in Italy in Italian. The title was "ANGELS IN STARSHIPS". He
had printed up a few copies of his translation some years ago, but it did not
get much outside distribution.
The reason for giving me the book had its foundation in the
second purpose of my visit to Rochester, which was to interview Bill and Rhoda
on their aoquaintence with George Adamski, an early UFO contactee who was
successfully put down by the UFO antagonists of the time, abetted by the
popular UFO clubs, none of whom ever carried out any real investigation of the
man or his ET contacts.
My interest and my convictions about the validity of George
Adamski's UFO contacts had been growing steadily since late 1979 when Swiss
journalist Lou Zinsstag had given me her original manuscript on Adamski who
stayed with her on his trips to Europe. She was personally acquainted with
George almost from the time he came to the attention of the press in 1953, and
they corresponded and met when possible since that time. Modified parts of that
manuscript were used in "GEORGE ADAMSKI, The Untold Story" by Lou
Zinsstag and Timothy Good. The gold Papal medal given Adamski by Pope John
XXIII is kept today in the safe in Lou's brother's jewelry store in Basel, Switzerland.
My convictions were reinforced after reading Bruce Cathie's
report on Mr. Adamski following his personal investigations in March of 1979,
the only recognized UFO researcher ever to go to that trouble. He published a report
on his findings in the last pages of his book "THE BRIDGE TO
INFINITY".
An unusual twist in the Adamski story came out of a UFO landing
in England on 24 April 1965, near Scoriton, in Devonshire, where three
space-beings in "light-body" got out of a bell-shaped ship and made
contact with Mr. Arthur Bryant, a gardener there, and one of the ETs indicated
association with the former George Adamski, who left his physical body the day
before in death in the United States of America. That report and its investigation
fills an entire book titled "THE SCORITON MYSTERY" BY Eileen Buckle.
We picked up other confirmations of the Adamski story in our loop
through Europe during the next two weeks, including his private audience with
the King and Queen of the Netherlands in 1959 and his private meeting with Pope
John XXIII in the Vatican a few years later. We spoke to witnesses to both
events and find them to be highly credible.
On our return to London the end of May we met with Benjamin
Creme, who says he is a desciple of Lord Mitreya, one of the mystic masters of
the Far East described in the Theosophical literature of the early 1900s, who,
surprisingly added several more pieces to the puzzle. Mr. Creme told us that
George Adamski was a pupil of one of his masters, and that he met Adamski, a
second degree initiate, in his "light-body", before George Adamski
came to world attention as a UFO contactee.
Mr. Creme affirmed that George Adamski's contacts were real and
that some of them took place in dense physical reality, just as described by
Adamski himself.
To a question about Adamski's contactors saying they came from
Venus, Mr. Creme readily replied that such was really true. In fact he added
the information that there were many Venusians among us then, and even today,
and that George Adamski was a Venusian spirit who had taken incarnation here
for a very specific purpose, which he had fulfilled before leaving this realm
in death of the physical body. According to Creme, Adamski continued in his
Venusian "light-body" after that, which does support the Scoriton
story.
Mr. Creme explained that the life wave in evolution on Venus was
forced up out of its dense physical level, equivalent to Earth now, by a change
in natural conditions there brought on by that humanity itself. They all gave
up their physical bodies in favor of higher dimensional
"light-bodies" now appropriate to their new world of finer
dimensional matter, where they have a form existence with landscapes, trees,
plants, animals, water, clouds, atmosphere, buildings, etc., and a society
appropriate to that vibrational nature of being. At the same time we see a hot,
high pressure, uninhabitable surface at our density of being.
Creme said there is a human life wave in evolution on Mars too,
but that they have come to exist in a vibrational realm of being somewhere
between ours and that of the Venusians, but closer to the Venusians than us. He
also added that there were other inhabited bodies in our solar system
as well, but no others at our same dense vibrational plane of existence.
All of this lent substantial credence to the story in this book,
which is our main reason for publishing it now. Even the title is most
appropriate. Benjamin Creme informed us that Lord Mitreya had told him that all
the angels of all the mythologies and histories of our world were simply
extraterrestrials or extradimensionals, or both, and that they have come and
gone ever since humanity came into being on this planet. Any serious
investigation on your part will also confirm these truths.

"When we speak of
matter we are speaking of the spiritual in a lower state of manifestation,
which is very necessary. A diamond could never have become a diamond with all
its brilliance without having first gone through its slimy lower stage. But all
the time it was going through that stage it had within itself the potential of
its purity and beauty. And matter- the slower rate of vibration - must be
endowed with a certain form of intelligence to obey higher intelligence, yet there
is neither higher or lower..."

Forward
by Eufenio del Buono
When it was proposed that I meet together with Georgio Dibitonto,
I readily accepted; however, I knew the basis for the invitation—to give an
appraisal of the credibility of his experiences with extraterrestrials.
The meetings took place evenings in a beautiful house in the
center of Rome, and the positive impression that the 'contactee' made on me
accompanied me continually as I came to know him better. At first sight, we
greeted one another with a hearty embrace, since, subconsciously, we
immediately felt like 'brothers'. As I listened to his story, afterwards, I
felt a strong sympathy for him, and a distinct impression that I had known him
a long time.
Many years earlier I had a similar,
spiritually moving
experience, when I first encountered George Adamski, the great American
contactee of Polish descent, whom I met on the occasion of a conference
in the Marignoli Palace in Rome. Adamski was the 'Enoch' of the fifties,
who told us about trips in
spacecraft from other worlds for purposes of illumination, and gave the
most
exact details about their structure and function. Furthermore, he told
us about
the space brothers, their appearance, their habits, their manner of
dress and
nourishment, and their deep love for the whole of creation and for the
inhabitants of Earth. Finally, he brought us a vast quantity of
previously
unknown scientific disclosures, and all the knowledge of higher cosmic
philosophy which he had gained during his numerous trips with the
brothers from
the cosmos.
After a dormant period of about thirty years, which was necessary
in order that men of good will could absorb that knowledge, the testimony which
George Adamski had to relinquish because of his death was resumed, and this
happened through Giorgio Dibitonto, the 'Enoch' of the eighties.
After unexpected visions, stirring encounters, and unforgettable
trips on board extraterrestrial vehicles, he was taken to a wonderful planet
where he had one of the most unusual and disturbing experiences. Georgio
Dibitonto tells plainly who the revered personality Ramu really is, which
Adamski concealed under an assumed name, and his high spiritual purpose. For,
together with other space brothers, he has worked diligently and sacrificially
from earliest times, to help the sorrowing humanity of our planet.
The author and his friends, who personally experienced some of
his contacts with him, all know the difficulties many readers will have in
fully accepting this book's message.
In response to the resistance shown by the press and other media
toward the recognition of the existence of extraterrestrial life, we would
point out the astounding parallel between today's reports of sightings and
encounters, and those from ancient times, the Bible, and all through the Middle
Ages up to the beginnings of astronomy and space travel. Here are a few
examples! In Indian sanscript, space vehicles are generally called 'vimanas' or
'ventlas'. Cicero, in the 43rd chapter of his "De Divinatione", writes
of 'balls in the heavens'; Julius Obsequens, in "Prodigia", writes of
'flaming shields', and these descriptions occur likewise in Aschylos, Plutarch,
Seneca, and Valerius Maximus. Xenophon, in the 12th chapter of his
"Anabasis", designates the objects as 'bells', 'dishes', and
'shells'. The ancient chronicler Lycostenes told of 'crosses and beams in the
sky*. Dio Cassius related that, at the first landing of the Romans in Great
Britain under Aulus Plautus in the year 43 B. C., a round object flew like
lightning from east to west.
The news journal of Old Nurnberg in 1561
wrote about 'balls,
discs and tubes in the sky', which held three, four, or more balls
inside of
them, and were seen over the city. 'Dark globes' were seen over Basel in
the Middle Ages, and similarly, there were 'airships' in the skies of
the United States toward the end of the 19th century, and beginning of
the 20th century. During
the second world war, 'balls of light' and so-called 'foo-fighters'
followed
both the Allied and the German aircraft.
In some of the caves of the Camonica Valley in Italy, in Tanum,
Sweden, and the highlands of Tassili, in the Sahara, and in Australia, one can
find rock wall drawings of men in 'diving suits', which even today the
Australian aborigines refer to as 'brothers of light'.
In the caves of Budhistan at the foot of the Himalayas, an
astronomical chart was found which shows the constellations as they appeared
13,000 years ago, with the route between Earth and Venus indicated.
In St. Antonio, in the Susa Valley near
Turin, there is an
engraved elliptical form, from which radiate outwards other lines, in
the midst
of which one can detect a neat row of cup-shaped objects, approximately 5
cm. apart, as if the artist wanted to show that it pertained to a
mother ship with flying discs on
board.
On the 12th of August, 1883, the astronomer, Bonilla, observed,
from the observatory at Zacatecas, Mexico, a great number of oval flying
objects crossing the disc of the sun. As he had just been making photographs
through the telescope, he was able to photograph one of the objects which had
left the formation and momentarily stood still. The same observation was made
simultaneously from observatories at Pueblo and Mexico City. From the
trigonometric calculations made possible by these astronomical observations, it
was established that the flying objects were in the vicinity of Earth.
On the 24th of April, 1874, the astronomer Schafarich observed an
object of high intensity as it left the moon and quickly went off into space.
The astronomer who discovered the planet Pluto, Professor Clyde Tombaugh, was
sitting in the garden with his wife and mother-in-law, one summer evening a few
years ago, resting from the heat of the day. Looking up, he had the good
fortune, as he openly declared, to see a large space ship, whose portholes were
illuminated with a bluish light. —Detailed descriptions of space ships and of
experiences of being taken into them run through the accounts of Ezekiel in the
Bible.
"Besides
the several types of spacecraft so far observed by Earth men, there are also
monstrous sized cruisers of space. None of these have yet landed on this Earth!
The cruisers, according to what I have been told, are of the size of a fair
sized city."
George Adamski, 16 January 1952
CHAPTER 1
The Being with
Wings of Light
That
afternoon I found myself at home. As I happened to raise my head, I noticed a
light in the room, which grew gradually stronger and finally was much more
intense than natural. In the midst of this luminosity appeared the figure of a
young man of extraordinary beauty. As I studied him in utter amazement, I saw
that his feet were lifted slightly off of the floor. He was barefoot, clothed
in a sparkling tunic, and two bright wings. Enraptured with the beauty and majesty
of his countenance, I gazed at him a long time in awe and wonder. This
manifestation lasted for a considerable period of time, then finally
disappeared as if a light were slowly extinguished.
In
the days that followed, I could not erase from my mind the beauty of that
manifestation, or the sweet feeling of peace that seemed to emanate from that
light. It was as if this impression accompanied me silently wherever I went.
Since my youth, I no longer believed that visions could be something real; I had
always considered them to be the product of stimulated fantasy. But now I
thought about the fact that the young person had appeared to me while I was in
a quiet and relaxed state of mind, without any cause for excitement.
The
sense of tranquility which had accompanied that experience was such that I was
able to observe very clearly all details of what had been shown to me. I
couldn't comprehend it, but as I thought about the wings of that being, I said
to myself repeatedly in awe and wonder, "Perhaps the angels, then, really
do exist" !
One
evening before Easter I had just returned home and was about to attend to my
affairs as usual, when the manifestation appeared to me again, in the same
place and in the same manner as before. The whole room was filled with its
light, which seemed to penetrate to my very depths. The radiant beauty of this
being disturbed me strangely, yet I hoped that he would not depart. Deeply
moved by this appearance, I was unable to either compose my thoughts or to
think of anything else.
I
gathered up my courage and asked him who he was. He smiled, and in a loving
voice answered, "I am Raphael". I expressed the wish to learn
something more about him and he said to me, "In the holy scriptures you
will find the Book of Tobias; by reading that you can become better acquainted
with me. You will see me again".
He
stood for a while before me, with a look both pleasant and deeply penetrating
on his shining countenance. Then he disappeared, and the light that had
accompanied his presence also gradually faded away.
Among
my books was a Bible which included the Apocrypha. I opened it, and as if by
coincidence, came upon a page from the story of Tobit. I was surprised; it was
as if an unseen hand had guided me to find this passage so quickly. I began to
read and soon discovered that Raphael meant 'medicine', and 'healing from God'.
The archangel had once come down to Earth in human form, to accompany the young
Tobias on the roads of the world. He had led him to his bride and had healed
her and also Tobias' father. Finally, when they wanted to pay him with gold,
the angel made himself known to them, whereupon he rose up and disappeared from
their sight.
All
this I kept in my heart, and cherished the hope that I would see Raphael again,
as he had promised.
CHAPTER 2
The Chosen Place for the Meeting
I
had lain down for a short rest at noontime. Just as I was falling asleep, a
clear picture loomed up before my eyes. I saw a forest, its trees, underbrush,
and a meadow with a path dividing it. I felt a deep peace come over me. As I
was waiting for some insight into what I had just experienced, I heard the
voice of Raphael saying to me, "Mark well the place! You should be able to
recognize it in the future; it is the place of our meeting".
Then
everything disappeared, leaving me with a feeling of calmness and inner peace.
I sought to determine the manner in which the promised meeting would take
place, and thought that perhaps the next manifestation of Raphael's presence
might take place, not within the walls of my dwelling, but outdoors in a
natural setting. That seemed to me an answer, yet I sensed that it was not all.
I remembered that Raphael had said, "You will see me again". I
decided to wait patiently.
On
the night of April 23. 1980, the angel said to me, "In the early afternoon
of the day after tomorrow, you will drive in your car to Finale Ligure. There
you will learn what to do next. Greetings, in love!" Casting all doubts
aside, I set out on the appointed day. The Riviera was crowded with pleasure seekers,
out for a weekend holiday at the seashore.
Having
arrived at Finale, I no longer had any problems, for the voice of Raphael came
promptly to tell me the way.
"You
must go to Calice," he said, "and from there continue on toward the
mountain. There you will receive further instructions to guide you to the place
of the meeting."
As
I drove along the winding roads of the valley, I could not be certain whether I
was proceeding from my own volition, or if a higher will was urging me on, or a
curiosity stronger than all my fears, or the joyous anticipation of a meeting
which I sensed might take place. The puzzle remained: I could not understand
why I had been invited to go there.
Following
telepathic instructions, I had turned to the right, and was now driving through
another valley, which widened and narrowed in irregular fashion as I pressed
forward in the late afternoon sunlight. I drove until I was told to leave my
small car, a Fiat 500, and go on the rest of the way by foot. After finding a
suitable spot to park my car, just off the paved road, I set off on a path
leading up an incline and continued to follow the inner voice that directed me
whenever I had the slightest doubt.
Ascending
the slope, I was soon completely out of breath, but whether this was because I
was not used to such climbs, or because of the excitement of the unknown, I
could not say. My heart was in my throat. I stood still. At that moment I heard
Raphael's voice saying, "Do not be afraid. Rest a little while, and then
go farther. You will soon feel renewed."
I
did as he said, and felt myself as if bathed in a healing stream. Thus
strengthened and refreshed, I started off once more along the footpath. The sun
was now behind me, and before me was the moon. They seemed to me like heavenly
companions, harbingers, perhaps, of things to come. As I hurried onwards, I
kept looking up at the sky in expectation. I felt entranced.
The
small path now opened into a clearing. To the left I could still see the
valley, and to the right, the mountain. I recognized it as the very place I had
seen in my vision! Looking more closely, I was amazed to realize how familiar
it appeared to me. My excitement quickened. "Breathe deeply and keep on
going," said Raphael. I obeyed, and once again felt a flood of life-giving,
refreshing energy. A soft, pleasant breeze caressed my body. I felt serene and
full of joy. The breeze caused a slight trembling among the leaves, and it
seemed to me that all nature shared my sense of expectation.
Once
more I heard the voice of Raphael, "We are very near now, coming from the
direction of the sun". I had heard it very clearly, as if it came from a
point in the sky behind me. I turned around and saw, in front of the sun, over
the valley, a small patch of cloud, which grew in size as it moved rapidly
toward me. I heard a light humming sound coming from it.
I
felt afraid, but, in spite of my fears, I kept my gaze firmly fixed on the
mysterious object before me. It came ever nearer, reducing its velocity all the
while, and began to descend to a point about one hundred feet above me. Now I
could see it quite clearly. It looked like a large silver plate, in places like
molten glass mixed with molten tin. Around it were lights of different colors,
and underneath were three large spheres. All my fears left me and I felt my
spirits rise to new heights.
The
object again moved through the sky to a point where it hovered over a group of
trees. Now I could observe it better than before. On the upper part was a large
dome, on whose highest point burned a dazzling white light that illuminated the
disc and its surroundings completely. The dome had small round windows around
it, from which a similar light shone, as if the interior was illuminated from
all directions. This light was stronger, but, rather than blinding to the eyes,
it seemed to evoke an overall pleasant feeling within me. By comparison, the
sun seemed now to be but a pale yellow glow. I was drawn to this light as if
under a spell, and felt an unaccustomed joy within me which bestowed a blessing.
From
this luminous disc I heard the voice of Raphael speaking to me. "It is not
the first time," he said, "that we have met with men of Earth in this
manner. From everlasting, we have spoken with mankind from our space vehicles,
flying discs and starships. In your holy scriptures you have read that the Lord
spoke to men of Earth from out of a cloud; your present encounter is no
different from that which was experienced by your forefathers throughout the
ages."
My
astonishment grew as I sought to comprehend the fact that this experience was
one which many others on this planet had had before. Again, I heard the voice
of Raphael, "Welcome from the countless dwellings of the Heavenly
Father," he said. "Our worlds belong to the brotherhood of universal
love. Among us, a degree of harmony and higher understanding prevails, such as
is unknown to your world. Through the ages we have come to you from the heart
of space to offer you help and salvation."
The
place where I was seemed as if transformed, not only by the light of the flying
disc, but also by the things I was being told by that great being. A feeling of
boundless freedom and grandeur, such as I had never known before, overwhelmed
me. It was as if the narrow limitations of my spirit had been torn away.
"We
have long wished for this meeting with you," said the voice. "Our joy
is great. Be assured always of our love for you and your Earth brothers. We
will come again. We greet you in the name of the Father of all."
I
understood that he was also speaking for others who must have been with him
inside the craft. I had wanted to ask him about so many things which were on my
heart, but it seemed inappropriate, and I could not find the right words to
express my thoughts.
"We
will see each other soon again," said Raphael, "but then you will not
be alone. Hail and farewell!"
The
light which surrounded the flying disc suddenly changed color from white to
violet and then a deep orange. There was a flash like lightning, in that moment
I saw clearly the interior, as if it were nearby and transparent. The angel
stood upright under the dome with his arms outstretched toward me. He was
dressed in a garment which reached to his ankles, and there were other persons
around him that I could not see clearly.
The
hovering disc now became a ball of light, and I could hear a soft humming
sound. Then all at once it sped away in the direction of the moon and vanished
from sight in the twinkling of an eye. Over the trees a kind of mist remained
behind, which gradually dissolved in the fresh mountain air.
CHAPTER 3
The First Meeting
on the Ground
Raphael
was there, about fifty meters away from where I was standing. He was about six
feet, three inches tall, and of indeterminate age. His countenance was the same
as when he had appeared to me at my house. He looked just the same, and
radiated the same beauty. He stood there among the olive trees and smiled at
me.
I
felt myself drawn to him, and I was filled with an unaccountable joy in his
presence. He greeted me warmly. I told him I was overjoyed to meet him, and
wanted to say much more, but was unable to, out of sheer excitement.
He
bade me to remain calm and said there would be plenty of time and opportunity
to clear up all the questions that lay upon my heart. I began to understand how
great a sense of concern and responsibility, for the good of the Earth, filled
the souls of these great beings from other worlds. I knew not what they did,
but I knew with an absolute certainty that they worked for the good of mankind
on Earth. Therefore, a profound sense of heartfelt gratitude dominated the
feeling of excitement that had almost overcome me at that first meeting with
the flying discs.
"I
showed myself the first time in my light dimension," he said with a hand
movement to indicate himself. "And now you see me in my cosmic form. We
will help you to gain a better understanding of these realities. You will
remember my telling you that the scriptures record one of my Earthly missions.
Many persons believe this to be merely a fable. You, however, can testify to
its reality. So many of the reported events in the Bible are seen as abstract
or symbolic; nevertheless, they actually did take place, and others will yet
occur in the future. If men of Earth will but open their hearts and minds, they
will gain much knowledge and learn many truths that are now hidden from them.
The moment in history is coming, when your planet collectively will enter an
era such as it has never before experienced in all its many thousand year
history."
I
noted that this great being, for all his simplicity and naturalness, possessed
an inner nobility of character and a great depth of understanding of our
condition. With sorrow, I reflected upon the overweening pride and arrogance of
Earth dwellers, myself included. Who can tell what pains of growth lie ahead of
us, before we can attain that degree of goodness and humility!
"How
beautiful it is!" exclaimed Raphael, turning toward the scene before us.
"Your Earth is one of the most beautiful in the cosmos. But, in spite of
that, it is in danger, because of the pride and egotism of those who would risk
a destruction of unimaginable proportions. Since earliest times, we have
endeavored to help you, to prevent the catastrophe that you are now preparing
for the Earth, and to influence you and your actions for the good. However, we
can only do that in a way that provides for your own development with complete
freedom. Among us there is no desire to use force over other people; we do not
lust for power."
His
words had an earnest tone, yet I could detect no trace of superiority or
condescension, only a deeply felt sorrow, together with great love. Although I
did not feel competent to converse on such a weighty topic, I gathered up my
courage and asked him, "Does this mean that you would help us in the event
that great calamities should befall the Earth?"
"We
are all brothers," he answered, "and children of the one universal
Father. Our love is unconditional toward all, including those who have chosen
to follow paths that lead to misery and death because they stand in opposition
to the Creator's universal laws. They do not understand that 'freedom' means to
travel the paths of love in their limitless diversity. For only in this
direction may true life be found. To misuse the generosity of so good a
Heavenly Father is a great evil, and a challenge to that which we revere as
godly."
His
countenance had assumed a thoughtful expression, though the majesty of his
appearance was in no way diminished. Then it again brightened to an affirming
smile and he said, "There many things we wish to impart to you. We want
you to realize that, in the whole creation, love is stronger than any other
reality. This is the magnanimity of our Father-God. Mankind on Earth will have
to understand how dangerous it is not to conform to the universal teachings
given to them through His great love, and to go against the fundamental laws
that govern throughout the cosmos, allowing life to come forth and be
sustained. If they do not wish to learn this, then they will experience, in
measure corresponding to their error, the purifying power of suffering."
All
this
was said with sadness and deep concern. Now he added, "But you must
go now and seek shelter, for a storm is coming." At that moment, I
became
aware that the weather had indeed worsened and the mountains of the
Tuscany Appenines were already shrouded in low-hanging clouds. It began
to rain, and soon
there was such a downpour that I could scarcely see my surroundings any
longer.
I
hastened to find shelter in a nearby chapel but it was almost in vain; my
leather jacket was soaked through and through, and my hair likewise. My shoes,
socks, and all my hiking gear were thoroughly drenched. It poured mercilessly,
and my discomfort grew so great that I was tempted to give up the venture and
to look for a dwelling where someone might supply me with a change of clothing.
I felt abandoned, and fought with myself, for I was divided on whether to trust
Raphael and wait at the appointed site, or seek some other way out of my predicament.
I was chilled, tired, and soaking wet. In my miserable state, I turned my
spirit toward my celestial visitor, with a plea that he might somehow help me,
insofar as was permitted for him to do so.
Then
I heard his voice answering me from above. "You are a person of weak
faith," he said to me. "Within a short time the clouds will part and
the sun will warm you again." The rain began to subside as though in
response to his words. Gradually I could see the trees and hills more clearly.
A
few minutes later, the sun blinked through the lattice-like openings of the
shifting clouds, and the skies grew quickly brighter. It was as though nature
had come to my rescue after a hard period of testing. Nevertheless, I was still
shivering with cold, and I could not imagine how the sun, which was now close
to setting, could possibly dry me off. Again I directed a plea to Raphael that
I might be delivered from harm. Then I was still and waited patiently.
Before
long, I saw a light coming from the direction of the sun which, as it drew
closer, assumed the form of a flying disc with a dome above. It was high above
the plain and moved quickly forward until it was hovering above me. Then it
began to slowly descend, coming to a stop just overhead. I estimated the
distance to be about seventy-five feet.
"Other
brothers from Earth," said the voice, "will join you for the next
meeting, and also I will have other brothers with me. Soon we shall meet again.
Until then, farewell."
The
glowing object then rose up high, tipped at an angle to the horizon, described
an unbelievably swift trajectory through the sky, and disappeared from sight, I
looked at my clothing and discovered that I was completely dry, as though not a
drop of water had touched me. I felt renewed in every way.
Suddenly,
there appeared high above in the blue sky three groups of flying saucers,
clearly visible, undulating in motion, and oval-shaped from my perspective.
They soon vanished behind the distant mountains.
It
was the twenty-seventh of April, 1980, two days after my trip to Finale.
CHAPTER 4
The Valley of Contact
As
if it were the most natural thing in the world, Tina, my betrothed, described
to me the events of my recent meeting exactly as they had occurred. She
explained to me that she had been together with some of her friends on the
previous Sunday afternoon, when all of a sudden these things were shown to her
in a clear vision. At the same time, a voice within her explained the meaning
of the vision, and told her that she would be with me when the promised meeting
took place. None of those who were with her at the time were aware of what was
going on. A feeling of great happiness and inner peace came over her. She
described to me the place where I had been, the subsequent course of events,
the encounter that took place, and my great annoyance with the weather. Nothing
was left out. I was overcome with amazement, and, above all, I was impressed
with the swiftness with which events were unfolding. Most certainly I was happy
to have a "witness" to what had happened to me.
I
told Tina all about the man from space and how I had first seen him in a great
light in my home. Then, she too became interested in looking up the story of
Tobias, even as I had done.
We
shared our experiences with a few close friends. At night, however, I was
tormented by the fear that I had not kept the secret that Raphael had wanted me
to. For a long time, I tossed to and fro in bed and told myself now I had
surely made a mess of things, and that perhaps Raphael would not want to have
anything more to do with me. In the midst of my anxiety, Raphael again let his
presence be made known to me.
"Nothing
happens without purpose," he said reassuringly. "Don't be fearful.
What has happened was forseen. You will invite Tina as well as your friends to
the next meeting, and you will accomplish what we then ask you to do." My
fears were swallowed up in joy and consolation. In the middle of the night, I
telephoned Tina, and finally fell into a deep sleep as morning dawned.
*
* *
On
the afternoon of May first, we were on the highway going toward Finale. When we
arrived at Calice Ligure, we turned off the main road and began ascending the
mountain.
At
a certain time, Raphael told me that the four friends who had accompanied us
should wait at a place several kilometers from the spot where the meeting would
take place. I indicated to them where they should stop, and drove on farther
with Tina. We came to the place where I had seen the discs the first time.
Raphael asked us to continue on until we came to a very steep road. My Fiat 500
had a great deal of difficulty making the climb. It bounced all around because
there was no longer an asphalt surface and the road was full of stones. We had
to slow down to a snail's pace.
Now
and then Raphael would say something, but we could also hear the voices of
other brothers who were with him. "That is the valley of contact!" Tina
exclaimed, with a shout of irrepressible joy. "I seem to hear voices
everywhere." She showed not the least bit of fear, but instead only an eager
desire to meet these beings from other worlds.
Just
as Raphael had done with me earlier, I now cautioned her to stay calm, remain
quiet, and wait patiently. We arrived at a meadow beyond which it became
impossible to go farther, and there I parked the car. For the first time I
became aware that the day was windy and the skies were gray. But I had no time
to dwell upon that, for suddenly we heard footsteps behind us.
I
turned around and saw three men coming toward us. I was afraid that Tina would
become panic-stricken, but, on the contrary, she got out of the car and went
toward them as if she were greeting old friends. I followed after and found
myself directly facing Raphael, who was wearing a loose-fitting, silver colored
space suit.
He
greeted us joyfully, as did also the other two, who were dressed more or less
the same way as Raphael, except that their space suits were tighter fitting and
darker in color. They were of normal size, and their beautiful features
expressed great beneficence and an inner depth of spirit.
They
introduced themselves, and said that their names were pseudonyms that were
given to them by an Earth brother, George Adamski, who had met them some years
ago.
"I
am Orthon," said the larger of the two. "My name is Firkon," said
the other.
Raphael
took me gently by the arm and led me to a small overlook. There he sat down on
the grass, and I sat down beside him. The other two space brothers remained a
short distance away from us and talked with Tina. I could see their hair moving
in the wind, and also Tina's long hair, and her clothing. Great clouds scudded
across the darkening skies. Raphael and the others seemed to pay them little
heed.
"I,
too, was given a pseudonym," said Raphael. "I was named Ramu, but it
is well that it should now be known who I really am. What Earth brothers must
know is the role that the Heavenly Father has entrusted to us from the dawn of
time, in order that their salvation on this planet might be brought
about."
I
was impressed with the magnanimity and simplicity that radiated from this
person. A perfect balance was manifest in all his actions; wisdom and knowledge
in all his thoughts. His amiability was sincere and natural.
"The
brothers who are waiting below," he added, referring to our four
companions who had accompanied us to the foot of the mountain, "will
receive adequate reassurance that our meeting took place."
He
spoke in perfect Italian, without any trace of an accent. I knew that he need
not speak in order to communicate, but it pleased me greatly that he did so, as
this made him seem more like one of us.
"The
message which we give you," he said, "is for all men of good will on
earth. This will be costly for you, for not everyone will believe you,
understand you and love you. But we will stand by you and help you. It is an
undertaking of love and salvation."
I
had no doubt of the kindness and sincerity of his words, although the full
import of all he said escaped me. I felt it was right to be concerned with love
and salvation, and wanted to do all that I could for the good of others,
whatever that might necessitate.
"We
wanted to meet with you up here in the mountains, far from the physical and
spiritual pollution of the city, in order to tell you that we are now beginning
to become manifest to an ever increasing number of Earth people. Some see us
only as a lightning-fast streak crossing the heavens; others see lights or
signs, or have dreams or visions. To a few we show ourselves, as is now your
experience. The result is that the news of our presence and mission is
gradually made known to those who have not seen us. There is not much time to
lose. If mankind does not see the folly of his behavior, then it is certain
that very difficult times lie ahead. This was forseen in the Scriptures, and
some people know this to be true; unfortunately, most people do not believe it,
thinking that what was written was only a fable."
He
was silent and thoughtful for a while, and then resumed, "Today there is a
strong wind blowing, but soon there will arise from the four corners of the
Earth a much stormier wind that will sweep all clouds before it. The confusion
that reigns over Earth today serves to convince but a few persons that all the
prophecies which we have given mankind to lead them toward a better life are
about to be fulfilled. They have been ridiculed, misunderstood, despised, and
even repudiated. And yet, their words have always been fulfilled."
"So
much sorrow," he added, with a sigh, "sorrow that Earth brothers
could be spared if they could set aside their pride and their reliance on
destructive force. If you would renounce the use of evil to fight evil, then
your way would be shortened, and you would make enormous strides toward the
good." www.universe-people.com www.cosmic-people.com
The
wind stormed about in gusts of fury that at times almost took our breath away.
It shook the trees and furrowed the grass in the meadow. It seemed a harbinger
of the stormy future of our planet that Raphael had been speaking about. Now he
looked me directly in the eyes and said, "If you do not become simple and
good, and if the spirit of pride and power which is so dominant among you is
not conquered, you cannot gain the true knowledge which a proper development
allows. It is important that each individual open his heart and mind to an
understanding of these truths. Many would deny this, out of insolence and
arrogance. By their attitude they make it impossible to allow themselves to be
released from spiritual bondage."
I
expressed my doubts about the possibility of being able to persuade people to
accept such a message from the space brothers, and to change their ways.
"All
of this has been said many times before to the people of this planet," said
Raphael in answer to my protests, "but it is necessary to speak the truth loudly
and clearly in order that those that are ready to hear it can receive it and do
likewise. For those who will not believe and accept it, there are other ways of
learning, which are all a part of the Heavenly Father's work, and still other,
more difficult lessons to follow, in order that no one might be lost or
sacrificed to evil. Many of us have come down to Earth since the earliest days,
and sometimes have been born in earthly bodies in order to fulfill some
particularly difficult assignment, and to confront evil directly. One must
first save oneself, before one can carry out the work for which one was born on
Earth."
I
was astounded at what I had just learned. "Tell me," I asked him,
"do people come to Earth from the higher worlds in order to learn how to
become good, or to help those who must learn? For it is as if one went into the
trenches; first, one must take care not to lose his own life, and then one can
fight the enemy, in order to help save one's comrades-in-arms."
"Yes,"
said Raphael, "but in this battle the weapons are love and wisdom, which
require God's grace and patience, and the confidence that the Father's plan of
salvation, which is set forth in the Holy Scriptures, will be perfectly
fulfilled, in spite of the growing disbelief of mankind. God is called Lord of
Hosts. The Bible tells you of a battle between the heavenly hosts and the
powers of evil. It is good that the Hosts of the Lord are always present,
working diligently for the triumph of the good on Earth,—an invited army in a 'battle'
of love and salvation against evil. Our numbers grow ever larger now in this
time of our coming to Earth for this great mission. We are many."
"And
are they all aware that they are here on mission?" I asked. "Many are
not," he answered, "for a veil of forgetting comes over their. so
that they have no clear memory of their past. This forgetting is necessary, in
order that the lifetime they spend on the planet is not too difficult for them
to bear. But afterwards, any soul that belongs to Universal Love and has
completed his time on Earth has full knowledge of who he is, what his work was,
and the never failing help we gave him from cur side."
I
asked, "Does the Scripture speak of this also?"
"Certainly,"
replied Raphael. "The book of Genesis relates that the sons of God were
born on Earth to bring healing to the society of that time, which was already
full of evil, and took unto themselves wives from daughters of men of Earth
that pleased them. Great efforts toward purification were made in those days in
order that the good might gain the upper hand over evil."
This
remarkable being was telling me things which I could not possibly fully
understand at that time. But I knew that they would stay with me in my thoughts
and in my heart. Now, more than ever, I was sure of his goodness and
understanding. I was silent and thought about all the things he had told me.
"You
will ask," Raphael resumed, "why we don't show ourselves to the
inhabitants of Earth openly, or do something great or unusual in order that the
truth might be made known to all, that everyone's eyes might be opened, once
and for all. These are questions asked by a great many Earth people, at least
since the time that Earth became a planet in need of rescue. I tell you now
what has already been said and demonstrated to you before: This is not
possible, as long as the brothers of Earth will not open their hearts to the
Heavenly Father in humility and love. We work for your highest good, and we
discern things which escape your error-blinded judgment. We understand when to
take action and when to wait.
In
other epochs, when things stood differently than they do today, we showed
ourselves and led mankind quite openly. However, we cannot use coercion against
the gift of free will, which God the Father has given to all his children, and
we can state with certainty that the strength of your determination to probe
the limits of rebelliousness will bring you even worse troubles than you have
already experienced in the days to come.
Throughout
the cosmos, it is not permissible for higher developed brothers to violate the
freedom of those who still have a long way to go in their own development. So
much that is bad can best be fought against after its devastating effect has
been experienced by the people themselves, as a consequence of their hardness
of heart. This is not because the good has no power to solve problems; on the
contrary, it is the shorter way, and the way blessed by the Father."
Raphael
stood up, and I did also. "Now we must part," he said.
Tina
and the two space brothers, with whom she had been conversing, came over to us.
"We
work by every means that we can," said Raphael, "in order that the
good will eventually blossom on the Earth. This necessitates on our side a
choice of action, always in harmony with the universal laws which are the
Heavenly Father's will. Many times these are scarcely understandable to you,
because you follow a logic of human might which is opposed to universal love.
As a consequence of the limitation of your human understanding, you err when
you judge us. Therefore it has been said and written, "Judge not."
And yet you do pass judgment on God, on us, and on your brothers. Your judgment
is in measure to your own prejudice. When you have arrived at a true
understanding, the error of having been judgmental will be revealed to you. For
in love lies the true understanding. The planet Earth has less love than the
air which the inhabitants breathe."
The
wind began to storm again and cause everything to tremble. I thought, when such
a kind and amiable brother shows so much concern over conditions on this
planet, the situation must be even worse than I, in my ignorance, imagined it
to be. We bade one another a loving farewell. Raphael assured us that we would
see each other again before long.
They
made their way to their craft, which was hidden amidst protective foliage. I
had the impulse to follow them. Raphael turned around, and without moving his
lips said to me, "not yet. The time will come when you may board our
spacecraft, but not at present."
For
a moment I stood still. Then, once more, I wanted to go on, but a force held me
back so that I had to give up the attempt. Tina waved goodbye, and the brothers
turned and again signaled a friendly farewell. Then we saw the disc rise up over
the green countryside in a tremendous burst of velocity. It ascended to the
clouds in an instant, and disappeared in their midst.
When
we arrived at the place in the valley below, where our friends were waiting for
us, they told us they had seen the flying discs, and they repeated to us
certain parts of the conversation that we had had with the brothers, which they
had received telepathically. In a relaxed and happy mood, we turned again
homeward, stopping for the evening at a little guest house in Finalboro. We
talked about our encounter for many hours before finally going to bed that
night.
The
next day we set out on the return journey to Genoa.
CHAPTER 5
The Heavenly Being
Raphael
spoke to us many times after that meeting, sometimes in the middle of the
night, sometimes during the day. He told us that that method of getting in
touch with us was called "cosmic contact," and that by properly
directing our thoughts we could be in communication with him any time that we
wanted to, in the future.
He
also gave us a few rules of caution: whenever we wanted to be in cosmic
contact, we should first ask the archangel Michael for his protection.
"Call
upon Michael," he said, "and you will have nothing more to
fear!" And that is exactly what we did.
One
evening, just before going to bed, Raphael said to me, "Let yourself fall
into a deep refreshing slumber. You are going to have another visit soon."
I
lay very still, thinking about what he had said. I thought about the great gift
which I had been vouchsafed, namely, to be in contact with the brothers. I knew
that every soul on Earth could speak by means of his mind and spirit to other
souls throughout the universe. I became aware that no one in the cosmos is
alone, and that the brothers never abandon those who live under the difficult
conditions of our planet Earth. They follow, help, and work for the good of
those who allow themselves to be helped and guided. Sometimes they do this
quite openly, at other times they merely give evidence of their activity, and
on still other occasions their help is given in secret ways so that no one is
aware of it at all.
I
recalled the advice Raphael had given me and stayed as quiet and relaxed as
possible. The hours went swiftly by and sleep almost overtook me, yet nothing
happened. Then I thought, perhaps the promised visit would come in the form of
a dream. Raphael had, in fact, told me that dreams are some times the
participation in the life of another cosmic or spiritual dimension within us,
and that our seemingly disconnected and senseless dreams may not in reality be
that at all.
Now
I knew that the brothers from higher worlds revealed themselves to us also in
dreams, thus conveying to us real messages singularly appropriate to our need.
Moreover, the scriptures are replete with instances in which the Lord God makes
known His will to man by means of a dream. Under such circumstances, one is
actually far more sensitive than in the conscious state, to the reception of
promptings and warnings from above.
I
thought about these things and became quite convinced that this would be the
way my visitor would come. But just then I caught a glimpse of a soft,
many-colored flash of light. Looking more closely, I noted that it seemed to
pulse with life. It was as if the hand of some great artist was drawing, in
lines of light, the face and form of a man about thirty years of age.
When
this masterwork was complete, there before my eyes was the figure of a man of
exceptional grace and beauty. I was completely entranced. He was clothed in a
white tunic, with a braided cord about the waist. His countenance was lovely
beyond description. His brow and all the lines of his face possessed a harmony
and peaceful majesty such as I could scarcely before have imagined. He had blue
eyes and chestnut brown hair, which fell to his shoulders. A good-looking beard
completed this image of light.
This
heavenly being radiated a secret deep life-force and an infinite grace, which
gave peace. I felt in him an absolutely pure love, and, in his presence, this
gradually permeated my whole being.
He
came closer to me, with an expression of perfect amiability in his gentle
smile. My soul felt completely overpowered, and yet it could recognize its true
self in him. In his fine, noble face I saw myself, and I felt within myself the
pure, all-consuming love that streamed forth from this being. The feeling of
exaltation that I experienced is impossible to describe; I was in a state of
perfect inner purification and spiritual wholeness. This luminous presence
penetrated every cell of my body, and his radiant beauty evoked a deep sense of
peace and longing for goodnes and love.
The
vision receded, but it left within me a feeling of indescribable joy. I wanted
desperately to know who it was that had visited me. One name rang within me
like a sweet melody, but I did not dare to presume it was right. Then came the
voice of Raphael: "You will see him again, but in a different guise,"
he said, and to that he would not add another word.
I
spoke with Tina about it. We knew that another meeting with the brothers was
supposed to take place on the following Sunday. Our instructions were to start
out on the expressway in the direction of Rapallo. We told our friends about it
and they said they would be happy to accompany us. Their unfailing and
enthusiastic support seemed to me a further gift from the brothers, who by now
had become a very real part of our daily lives.
We
left the autos at a place in the foothills near Zoagli. Paulo, Anna, Gianna and
Roberto remained behind in a meadow. Tina and I went on farther by foot, since
the road was no longer passable beyond that point. We climbed the upward
sloping path, happy as two children setting out on a vacation together. In
spite of the misty weather and cool air, we were perspiring because of the
effort of the climb. We noted that that year, 1980, was having more than a
normal amount of inclement weather.
We
continued on around the hillside until, suddenly, we found ourselves standing
before a valley with steeply sloping sides. In the distance we could see the
sea and a good stretch of coastline. We decided to sit down and rest awhile, in
order to catch our breath. The grass was wet and it looked as though it might
rain again at any time.
We
put up the umbrella that we had brought with us and began once more to climb.
We had gone only a few steps when our attention was caught by a soft,
low-pitched humming sound. We looked up and saw a large disc circling high
above us as if searching for a place to land.
The
agility with which the flying object moved was truly remarkable. It had no
burning lights, and seemed to be dark silver in color. We felt oppressed, as
though our whole bodies might be crushed. Tina cried out, "Raphael, what
is the matter?" I tried, by means of cosmic contact, to ascertain just why
we had this strong feeling of pressure, which by now was causing us no small
amount of anxiety. The stifling feeling grew more intense. Then the disc
withdrew into the distance, and immediately we began to feel well again.
The
voice of Raphael spoke to us, "We wanted to let you experience this
sensation of pressure, in order that you might better understand how you must
undergo a certain amount of purification and reorientation of your life
energies with each new meeting with us. Your planet is in an impure state
because the heart of man is impure. The Earth is out of harmony, and
disintegrating vibrations, like the scourges that lash her sorrowing
multitudes, create ever-widening zones on the planet where the life energies
are undermined. One day you will comprehend the reality of these conditions
which are beyond the grasp of your limited science. Those few who have begun to
realize the true situation are misunderstood and left alone."
I
heard what Raphael was saying to us and was fearful, lest the sensation of
stifling oppression overtake us again.
"Now
we are going," came the voice of Raphael from the disc. "Follow the
path. We will meet again farther up."
Because
of the rain and the mud, we continued the climb with considerable difficulty.
The wet grass was slippery, and we grasped at the lush growth to pull ourselves
forward. At last, we came to a broader footpath that led to a little meadow. We
had scarcely arrived when we saw the disc, standing there on the ground just a
few dozen meters from us. I was surprised to see that it seemed level in spite
of the sloping ground on which it rested. This was apparently accomplished by
varying the lengths of the supporting members between the disc and the
three-ball landing gear, thus maintaining perfect balance.
"How
wonderful!" Tina cried out.
Between
us and the disc, a few meters distant, stood Raphael. The rain had noticably
decreased, but this man from space did not seem to be the least wet. He greeted
us heartily and came closer.
"It
is good to be able to meet with you up here," he said. "What a
beautiful spot on planet Earth this is!"
Tina
called our space farer's attention to the fact that our visits almost always
seemed to take place in the rain.
"That
won't always be the case," answered Raphael, "but the Earth must be
cleansed. Much water will yet have to flow, and not that alone."
Tina
then said that she was really very happy, and that the rain seemed to be quite
a normal part of our meetings; that she understood the idea of a needed
cleansing very well, which this indispensable natural element illustrated so
perfectly.
Raphael
invited us to listen closely to the voice of the rain. He said that mankind was
more and more losing its sense of oneness with nature. "To regain this
perspective," he continued, "would be the key to being healed of many
of the evils that now plague mankind."
We
stood in silence. Only the whispered patter of raindrops falling on leaves and
grass could be heard. Yet, in the drenched surroundings and the gray
atmosphere, there was a quality of vibrant life because of the presence of this
being.
"If
the people of Earth do not return to a state of peace with creation, and do not
learn to relate harmoniously with nature, she will not reveal her heart to
them. They will not be able to develop further, in spite of all their
scientific discoveries."
"True
knowledge, which the higher development of the Creator's children brings with
it, includes the reality of the infinitude of worlds within the universe, which
reaches far beyond the realm of only material dimensions. Your science, which
researches matter only, and does not concern itself at all with that which goes
beyond it, can lead you only to a knowledge of the superficialities of
creation, with the great danger that the most important part will be
overlooked. This is the reason why your achievements are constantly
misapplied."
By
this time the rain had ceased falling and we had again put down our umbrella.
Raphael was leaning lightly against a tree, and every so often he would sweep
the scene with a look of keen intensity, as if in wonder at the blossoming
plant life all around us. We suspected that our meeting might be drawing to a
close.
Raphael
invited us to come with him a little way in the direction toward the spot where
the disc was resting on the ground. "Your science," he continued,
"must learn to recognize its limitations. Matter cannot be master over
matter. When man is awakened to the fact that true knowledge comes in other
ways as well, science will also be a help on the chosen path. So, as you now
are, and wish to remain, we will never be able to give you higher knowledge.
You would want to use it for your purposes of human power, and therefore in
dangerous ways. To that end you are even prepared to bring about disorder and pollution
in the region of space surrounding the Earth. You will find us vigilant,
however, for it will not be permitted that you should unleash death and
destruction over the whole planet."
We
walked slowly together across the meadow. Raphael, tall and majestic, was
between Tina and me. His step was light and sure; his shoes seemed to be made
of a material that was copper-colored and as light as a feather. He wore a
fairly tight-fitting space suit, also of a coppery tone. "You belong to
the brotherhood of universal love," I said. "What, then, is the
meaning of your statement that you would not allow dangerous Earthman to expand
his activity unchecked into outer space?"
"Our
methods are peaceful," he answered. "If you nevertheless insist on
going ahead with your war plans or make false peace proposals behind which you
hide other intentions, you will not succeed, for we will not allow it. First,
you must learn the way of goodness, of universal justice and of love. Only
after that can you do as you please."
"If
I understand you correctly," I responded, "this means that you would
never use force to deny earthman access to outer space, but you would in some
manner make it impossible for him to violate the purity of outer space by means
of the nuclear bomb and other polluting devices which may be sent out from the
earth."
"Right,"
he answered. "And that is also according to the universal law of God our
Father."
He
paused for a while and then went on to say that we would find in our scriptures
that the children who were rebellious against the Universal Father's love were
given a certain boundary beyond which they were not permitted to pass. Only for
the righteous, the children of good will, does the Father set no boundaries on
the paths by which His children come to Him. "The planets of the whole
cosmos," he said quietly, "belong to universal love. They feel bound
to one another in a competition of love and cooperative service. Every brother
feels like a brother because he is the child of a Father-Creator. Knowledge
does not mean "might," as with you, but more cooperativeness, more
humility, more loving kindness. Love means giving, without asking anything in
return. Receiving is included in the idea of love, but it is not the reason
that motivates us to love one another. On Earth one misuses knowledge to rule
over a brother. All too often one who stands higher up promotes injustice, and
forgets what it is like to stand down below. The only might that we recognize
is the beneficent power of the Heavenly Father. The only true power is that
which springs from love. True knowledge and responsibility lie in service, good
will, humility, and simplicity, in view of the immeasurable grandeur of the
universe."
Tina
responded with a commentary on how far we Earth dwellers were from realizing
such a single and wonderful existence. She said that what Raphael had been
telling us about life on those planets that belong to universal love was the
dream of so many Earth dwellers who long for peace and justice.
"Many
of Earth's people," Raphael observed, "pay no attention to the
universal laws of creation, nor do they accept them. Others have perverted
these truths, and complicated them in ways corresponding to the hardness of
their minds, teaching the people to take on burdens which they could not
themselves carry. This too has been spoken and written about. Thus, many Earth
brothers do not obey the divine laws because they are true rebels, and others,
because they do not believe them to be genuine and just. Bad teachers of the
laws therefore have much to answer for with respect to their own brothers. The
scriptures are very strict with such persons."
I
said, in response, that I seemed to recall that some of the truths which he
mentioned were taught to us by Jesus of Nazareth almost two thousand years ago.
"If
you report these, my words, to your Earth brothers," said Raphael,
"you will find a few who say that all this is just a fairy tale. Others
will say to you that, since the same message was given two thousand years ago,
they see no necessity to repeat it now. They will say there is no need to
reveal these truths because they are already so familiar to them. To such
persons, one can only say, "Hats off!" If Earthman had really learned
these teachings and translated them into actual practice, we would not be here
today to bring you this warning. But we have other words for you as well, other
things about which we wish to speak. Let your spirits not be too troubled, for
many are waiting to hear our words, and will rejoice in them."
We
stopped momentarily beside a very unusual bush. Raphael stroked it while he
spoke, and treated it with the respect one might have for another human being.
Tina had again put up the umbrella, since it had begun sprinkling once more.
Raphael paid no attention to the water falling on his head. His hair stayed
dry, and that made me believe he was being helped by some unusual form of
energy.
"The
earth,"
began Raphael, as he tenderly touched the flowering bush,
"was the Garden of Eden, which is spoken of in the scriptures. Eden is
the whole cosmos, which has remained true to the love of the
Creator-Father. There
came a time when the people of Earth wanted to eat of the knowledge of
good and
evil. This was forbidden, since it would bring harm to that which had
been
created. The Father had given His warning. Mankind, however, did not
wish to
believe that warning, and so began to experiment with living after its
own
desires, and with that, the cycle of our present time was begun. You,
who had
eaten the limitless fruits of universal love, wanted to enjoy one single
fruit,
namely to try the pitiable way of wrongdoing. Moreover, you said the way
of
universal love was monotonous and tedious, and thus traduced the story
of God's
divine creation. Man began to put the bad in the place of the good,
selfishness
in the place of love, war in the place of peace, and decadence in the
place of
progress. He went astray, and for that he also gave the Father the
blame, who,
in His love, has given all His children the wonderful gift of free will.
So the
word was fulfilled, which stated. 'If you eat of this forbidden fruit,
you will
surely diet"
An
expression of great seriousness came over the face of this brother from the
universe, reflecting his profound inner anguish, and this touched me to the depths.
Tina looked at him with an expression of anticipation. There was something
about his radiant countenance that awakened within me a feeling of hope. His
cheerful tranquility, and the warmth and loving kindness in his look gave
promise of a way of salvation.
"How
will it be possible," asked Tina, "to overcome a condition that has
already existed on Earth for many thousands of years?"
"It
has all been written," said Raphael, as he resumed walking.
"Everything that might eventuate from the freedom of choice of Earthman
was forseen, and his salvation was provided for through a great plan of love,
corresponding to the justice and goodness of universal law. Rebellious man will
never be abandoned; rather, he will be given support? he will be led, he will
be chastened and comforted. There will come a time when the One to whom is
given power in Heaven and on Earth will come with His own, and then the rule of
evil will be ended, as has been ordained. God the Father will know how best to
deal with those who are not yet ready for salvation. We will then not be able
to do anything further. We will carry out the new plan of the Father, which He
has carefully prepared, but for those concerned, there will be great sorrow and
anguish that they did not understand how to make use of such a great
opportunity of being rescued."
He
was silent for a while. Then he added, "We are the cherubim of the
scriptures. We were appointed by God Himself to be Guardians of Eden. Never
will we allow Earthman to have access to the unspoiled Eden-world, as long as
he has not changed from the spirit of the power of the bad, back to the spirit
of universal love. Travel to the space of other worlds is denied you through
the justice of universal law. First, you must totally renounce the bad. Then the
Earth will again be the Garden of Eden, and the people of Earth will be
accepted by the universal brotherhood. This great hindrance will be removed,
and we will return and be able to move freely again about the Earth, and you
about our dwelling places, as it was before the rebellion."
Tina
smiled and said she wished that day would soon come. Raphael read my thoughts
and repeated what he had already told us. "We," he said with
emphasis, "will never resort to the use of force. Force always brings on
more force, hatred brings hatred, and death brings death. Our weapons are love,
discretion, wisdom and patience. We are, nevertheless, far more effective in
accomplishment than you could possibly imagine. We will not allow evil to take
root in the cosmos, where harmony, love, and the life-force reign. From the
earliest times we have renounced the allurement of evil. Being a creature with
finite limitations brings with it the obligation to trust the Creator, who has
given us freedom and dignity. We love His laws, and know that His love opens
the way to everlasting life. It is foolish not to want to give up a little, and
thereby to miss out on so much happiness. We love God, our Father, because He
loves us. He loves us unconditionally, and we do likewise, for this is the
proper response. Soon your planet will comprehend this too, and the long
awaited day will dawn for you. I tell you truly, it will be soon."
We
came to the place where the disc was.
"That
means," Raphael concluded, "that the cherubim will soon be among you.
Earth will again be a planet of universal love, and no longer in the power of
evil. We will take you with us in space and you will visit other worlds in your
space ships. You will seek out the many mansions of the Father's house, and the
new age of love will put an end to the many thousand year history of war, death
and tribulation."
Here
the meeting ended. Raphael bade us farewell and made his way toward the space
craft, which was now in sight. We would have liked to inspect it more closely.
Raphael turned and said that he was sorry that he could not grant our wish at
this time.
Through
the portholes we could see the faces of two beautiful beings within the disc.
We greeted them with a wave of the hand and they returned our greeting. The
door closed silently after Raphael. Then the white light came on at the top of
the dome. We heard a low humming sound, and saw the three-ball landing gear
retract into the craft, which now hovered with a gentle rocking motion in the
air.
There
was a rustle of leafy boughs, and the shrubs bent low as if pressed by a sudden
gust of wind. We experienced a slight pressure in our eardrums, and the disc
lifted straight upwards, then turned in flight, and disappeared quickly in the
clouds above.
CHAPTER 6
The Mothership from
the Stars
We
drove through Sportono; at the western edge of the village, after crossing a
bridge over the highway, we started up the steeply inclined road before us.
There was a tang of freshness in the air, such as is known to all who travel
the countryside at this beautiful time of the year. We drove for several
kilometers amidst pines and shrubs, green with the touch of nature in
springtime.
Meanwhile,
the night was falling rapidly. The mountain tops were only faintly visible in
the soft glow of the evening sky. The clouds disappeared and stars took their
places in the heavens. The air smelled fresh and clean, washed by the recent
rains.
I
brought our friends' car to a halt at a convenient spot and told them to wait
there, in accordance with the instructions we had been given. Then Tina and I
drove on farther.
We
drove for a short distance under the trees, away from the main road, then
parked the car and went on by foot. Since it was now dark, we had to light our
way by means of a flashlight which we had brought with us. Tina said to me that
if it had not been for the brothers, she would never have ventured forth to
such an out of the way place at night. She found the going very difficult,
since her shoes were unsuitable for such conditions, and we held each other's
hands for support as we tried to avoid the puddles and the mire.
After
we had gone on like this for quite a long while, we began to be aware of
voices. We stopped immediately in order to listen more closely. We could hear
the voices of both men and women.
"It
is they," said Tina. "I am sure of it. They are already here."
I
was almost sure that it was they, but, since I was not receiving mental
confirmation of that by 'cosmic contact', I thought it wisest to proceed with
caution. I asked Tina not to speak loudly, and to go very slowly. She, however,
was full of joy and showed no fear whatsoever.
We
came to a long row of bushes that formed a natural hedgerow bordering a large
level area, which remained hidden from view. We went along it to the end, where
we came upon a rather large meadow. Now and then the call of a night bird
pierced the stillness.
The
air had become noticeably fresher, so that we were glad to be able to don the
pullovers which we had brought with us. With the aid of our flashlight, we
looked over the clearing before us as best we could. It was uncultivated, and
divided down the middle by a strip of tall grass, the two halves of the field
being on different levels. We pressed on through the wet grass.
"I
sense that they are here," Tina repeated. "I feel certain that they
are nearby."
I
insisted that she be quiet, nevertheless, and decided we should wait there
where we were. Meanwhile, we sat down on a large flat stone that seemed
reasonably dry, and waited patiently for some sign of their presence. Then came
the voice of Raphael. It was clear, and nearby. "We are already on the
ground," he said, "quite close to where you are."
Tina
was jubilant, and said again she had felt it unmistakably. We turned off our
flashlight, and Tina pointed to something barely visible at the end of the
meadow, where the terrain rose to a higher level. (3)
There,
where the dark border of the trees could just be distinguished, a light
appeared, which gradually grew brighter and brighter. The outline of a large
cigar-shaped object resting on the ground began to be clearly discernible
amidst the darkness.
"Oh,
how wonderful!" exclaimed Tina repeatedly. We were beside ourselves with
amazement, and utterly astonished at the sight before our eyes.
The
light grew in intensity, and now we could see the thing quite clearly. It was
dozens of meters (perhaps 100 to 120) long, and, at its thickest girth reached
almost to the height of the trees behind it. A long row of round portholes
emitted colored lights that lit up the area where the object was resting. After
a few minutes, the whole thing looked as colorful and brightly illuminated as a
ship starting out on an ocean voyage. We were spellbound as we watched the play
of colored light that now seemed to come from all sides, as if from fountains,
whose sources we could not determine. Tina pulled my arm and wanted us to go
immediately to the giant space ship.
"Let
us wait," I said. "They will surely say something to us soon." We
felt the same great joyousness within us that we had felt on the occasion of
all the previous meetings. So impressive was this great vehicle from space,
that the light-flooded meadow was no longer recognizable? it was as if one had
been transported to a new and awesome world.
The
glow of the cigar-shaped form grew even brighter, and then, before our eyes,
began a play of light from the round windows which was truly a festival of
luminous beauty. The rhythmically dancing beams of colored light touched our
innermost being with a poignancy impossible to describe. Then, from one end of
this ray-ship came, one after another, four flying discs, so brightly shining
as to appear more like globes of white light. They hovered, and gently set
themselves down on the open place in the meadow between us and the big 'cigar'.
The
four small doors opened, and out came men and women. I recognized the form of
Raphael, and my heart leapt for joy, so that it seemed caught in my throat.
Tina waved a greeting. They came right toward us. Their bodies seemed enveloped
in a phosphorescent glow. Raphael was the first to reach us, and the others
followed.
"Welcome
to this place of meeting", he said graciously; "tonight you will meet
other brothers and sisters who work together on this mission".
We
greeted Raphael, and with him, Orthon and Firkon, whom we had already met.
Orthon was distinguished by his erect bearing and noble demeanor. Firkon again
displayed that heartiness of manner which had so impressed us before. We shook
hands all around. Their looks bespoke sincerity and good will; their gestures,
an unpretentiousness that was calming and reassuring.
Then
another brother was introduced to us. He was dark-haired. He impressed us as
one whose talents were along practical lines. He was no less handsome in
appearance than the others, and his behavior was marked by that same harmonious
calmness. "This is our brother, Zuhl," said Raphael, by way of
introduction. "He is greatly valued for his knowledge and ability."
Then
another man was introduced to us, who impressed us immediately with his
kindliness and amiability. He smiled like one who had much to say, tut would
not speak. "His name is George," said Raphael, nodding in my
direction, "the same as yours. This, our brother, lived for a while on
Earth, where he chose to come on an assignment. Now he has returned to
us." We greeted one another with a warm handclasp. Then four young women
came up to us. We were struck by their gracious charm. The smallest one had
blue eyes and light blond hair.
"I
am Kalna," she said, "and I am happy to be here with you."
"I
am Ilmuth," said the second, as she warmly extended her hand. "This
meeting brings me great joy." She was taller than Kalna, and her hair, as
black as ebony, fell freely over her shoulders. Her dark eyes looked at us
penetratingly. She was beautiful, but along with that, modest and
unpretentious, as one could tell by her manner, and by her words, as she spoke
to us.
Then
two more young women were introduced to us, and they were dark complexioned. We
were not told their names. They, too, were a clear example of other-worldly
beauty, and of amiability, grace and goodness. The men and women were all
wearing space suits with rather full sleeves and trousers. From all, there
seemed to radiate a soft glow.
"This
is a very unusual meeting," said Raphael, in his deep melodious voice.
"It is important that you become acquainted with the brothers who are
entrusted with this mission. There are many who are concerned about you. You
will meet all of us eventually, but not at this time."
A
subtle, pleasant, fragrance filled the air. "What a strange, sweet
aroma!" Tina exclaimed. "It seems to be not of this Earth." I
assured her that I, too, had never before experienced so clean and fresh a
scent in the air.
The
brothers smiled. In their presence, we soon felt a sense of trust and intimacy,
such as would have been impossible to achieve in so short a time among Earth
people.
Orthon
looked at Tina with such benevolence, and spoke so tenderly to her that she was
moved to tears. We all sat down in a circle in the grass, without paying any
attention at all to the dampness.
"We
won't allow you to become sick because of it," Raphael said good
humoredly. "Just make yourselves comfortable."
The
air seemed milder now, as if warmed by the light energy, and that made our
hearts glad. A deep sense of peace left us feeling at one with nature. The
space craft were like living onlookers.
"The
inhabitants of planet Earth," began Raphael, sitting relaxed in the center
of the group, his legs lightly crossed, "are ready to spend enormous sums
of money to join us in space. And yet, we are already everywhere on Earth. We
are among you, both visibly, as you see us now, and also in ways unknown to
you. Many know of our existence and our presence, yet deny any knowledge of us.
Many of those who have seen us insist that we behave in a strange and senseless
manner, yes, even that we appear to act contemptuously toward them. Yet they
don't want to take that small step that would lead to an understanding of the
whole picture and answer your longing to know the 'whence, where and
whither?'"
There
followed a period of silence. I rejoiced inwardly over this amazing meeting
with these 'pilgrims of the light,’ in the stillness of the night. I remembered
the words that Raphael had spoken at our meeting at Zoagli, and in my mind
compared them with what he was now saying. I was convinced that the Garden of
Eden had been desecrated beyond recognition by mankind who had rebelled against
the Creator-Father's love. Just being in the presence of these brothers enabled
me to sense and to comprehend so many things. I wished that this night could
continue without ever ending.
"Some
people," Raphael began again, "ask themselves whether we exist at
all, and they think, 'If the extraterrestrials really exist, why then do they
not show themselves to, and cooperate with, us in an open manner?1 However,
many people of Earth know very well that we do exist, and that we do not share
their egotistic outlook or warlike tendency. In reality, they would like to
have us in their power, in order to gain knowledge from us which would give
them greater opportunities for power and domination. That is the reason why we
must act in such a way as to avoid this danger, and why we are waiting for the
time when it will be possible to bring knowledge to Earth brothers from the
children of God, in conformance with universal law."
The
man with my name looked at me with love and compassion. My feeling toward him
was one of gratitude and awe. Now and then we heard the voice of a nightingale
in the woods nearby. In the still of the night, we stood entranced by the
beauty of his song. A fresh aroma permeated the air.
Raphael
said, "Soon the Earth will once more be like the Garden of Eden. But
before her people can be really happy, they will experience much hardship and
suffering, as a result of their stubbornness and hardness of heart. In the end,
however, that love which dwells within each one of you will gain the upper hand
over all your malicious impulses."
Nov
Firkon entered into the conversation. His voice was friendly, and he spoke with
animation: "In the Bible, one may read how the Hebrews made a great
journey, which led them out of captivity. Very well, that is also our message
for these days: the people of Earth should prepare themselves for a new
journey, one that has no equal in all your history. No single event, that ever
yet happened on Earth, can compare with that which stands before you now. In
order to understand that, one must note the signs which will accompany this
journey, according to the text. Clouds and pillars of fire, which today you
would call flying saucers and motherships, were seen over the leaders of the
Hebrews who fled from Egypt. Exactly the same signs and realities portend in
these days a new and final journey, which will lead you out of your present
misery, into the true promised land of universal love. It is most important
that all people understand this. The time is short."
Even
if I had not been thoroughly familiar with the story of the Exodus, in the Old
Testament, Firkon's explanation would have been easy to comprehend.
"We
will accompany you," said Ilmuth in her beautiful, earnest voice, "as
we did in those days, and our presence will be much more in evidence this time.
We will lead you to the Garden of Eden. The path lies before us now, for
already the ten plagues of the planet stand ready to work their harm, as
decreed by those spirits who are mighty in doing evil. You will travel through
a wilderness, in comparison to which the one that the Hebrews overcame would
seem like an oasis. But we will be over you as before, only more visibly, to
aid and comfort you. We will help you in every way that we can. We will be
pillars of cloud by day, and pillars of fire by night. We will never leave you
alone, and you will be protected as no other creatures on your planet have been
protected before. For the forces of desolation on Earth will be mighty
indeed."
Now
Kalna began to speak, and her charming voice was accompanied by the persistent
song of a nightingale in the background. "The Hebrews," she said,
"were led by a great universal brother, who was born here in order to
fulfill this important mission. His name was Moses. You will be led by a new
Hoses whom we all love and admire greatly. He will lead all the people on this
new exodus, like a good brother or father. All who trust in him and want to
have him as their leader, will arrive at that goal that has been already
chosen. No one will be abandoned, if he does not wish to be. The message that
we bring to you from the universe is one of hope and salvation, during this
time when dark clouds are gathering on the horizons of planet Earth."
"You
will discover," said Orthon in a joyful tone, "how much goodness and
beauty is within you, and all throughout the natural world around you. First,
however, the bad will teach you all its disasterous lessons, in order that
those who desire the good may free themselves from the bad and forever ban it
from their own hearts. Unless that happens, Earthman will be a danger to himself
and to the whole cosmos. And we will, as it is written, draw a flaming sword
for the defense of the part of Eden that is unspoiled. We, the cherubim, will
guard the entry to Eden against all who would bring death and disharmony with
them. Only after you have regained your original innocence, and evil can no
longer find refuge within you, or anywhere on your planet, will the gates of
the cosmos again be open to you. That will be a great day, and it will come
soon."
This
brother awakened hope within our hearts. Tina wanted to ask a questions
"Why do you cite only from the Bible?" she asked. "Aren't there
also other texts in which these things you have been telling us were
recorded?"
"Throughout
the ages," answered Raphael, "mankind has been given many revelations,
and these have been spread by many different, trustworthy witnesses. Thus, the
Father wished to enter into the history of mankind in a special way through the
preparation of the Hebrew people, through which Jesus the Christ would later be
born. The Bible gives the revelation of this intervention of God in the history
of mankind. We carried out His will, and constantly followed the progress,
since then, of things which now concern not only those people, but all the
people of the Earth. Other people have started on a different path, but they,
too, will be helped. It is what Jesus Christ said and did that makes the Bible
so important and so timely. The whole Bible is an introduction to the great
revelation which reaches its climax in the apocalypse. In it, all the most
important prophesies of the old and new histories of the chosen people of God
are brought together. There the events are outlined, whose imminent fulfillment
we are telling you about,—the tribulations which Earth must endure, in order to
break the bonds of evil,—the way back to Eden. All prophesies up to this time
have come to pass. Nov we stand at the point of fulfillment of the last one. We
want to communicate to you and to the brothers of Earth those things that we
deem most helpful for them at this time. Too many people today read the
scriptures in the spirit of self improvement only, blind to the real meaning
and unmoved in their hearts. The simplicity and directness of the original has
been lost, and they are no longer understood."
At
this point, Raphael ceased his discourse, remarking that, for reasons of
safety, some of them would now return to the mother ship. It was decided that
Raphael, Orthon and Firkon would remain with us for a little while. The others
would go back in three discs to the mother ship, leaving one on the ground in
the charge of Zuhl. Those who departed for the ship wished us a hearty goodbye?
all said that they would see us soon again, and reassured us of their love and
support. Tina was deeply moved. She said she wished they did not have to part.
But Raphael again said that it was necessary.
The
space brothers went back to the three discs, which, as soon as they were
inside, rose up and flew to the larger starship, where they disappeared inside.
The lights were lowered, as at the ending of a feast, when all is restored to
normal again. Only a faint glow remained where the ship had been. From the
round windows of the disc that still rested on the grass, a soft light was
barely discernible.
Raphael
invited us to go for a short walk with them. Firkon pulled from his pocket a
little flashlight that cast a broad beam on our path. We walked on through the
woods. Tina held on to my arm, and the three spacemen walked nearby, Raphael on
my right, and Orthon and Firkon at Tina's side.
"When
we tell you that you will not be allowed to continue your drive into space, we
are fulfilling the prophesy of Genesis, which says that the Lord God has
appointed us guardians of Eden to keep man from gaining access to the tree of
knowledge, in order that he may not contaminate it with evil. The practice of
evil, which you have steadfastly adhered to, over the history of your planet,
will soon come to an end, for you will see that that way, which you have chosen
to follow, will turn against you. Only the way of goodness and universal love
knows no delays and no evil consequences. Whoever persists in ways that are
erroneous will find that the result will be tribulation. That is an important
provision, by which the children who are in error will not irretrievably lose
their way back to the good Father."
"If
I understand you correctly," I said, "the Earth is near the end of
the present dispensation."
"You
are indeed at the end of this dispensation, this present order," replied
Firkon as he stood still and eyed me intently. "Soon you will be in that
wonderful era, toward which the scriptures of all past times have been
pointing. But the things which must come to pass before that time will be
sorrowful indeed. It is urgently necessary that mankind grasp the seriousness
of the straightforward message we are giving you, as quickly as possible. All
this has been told you long ago in the scriptures. But the true meaning of that
which was said and written for your sake has been lost in the convolutions of your
deluded thinking.
This
meeting, and all that we had seen and experienced for some time now, was for us
the most tangible proof of the truth of that which was being told to us.
"Why
is it," asked Tina, hesitatingly, "that you don't give this message
to people with influence and power? It is surely much more likely that such
persons would be believed. They could accomplish much toward bringing about the
understanding of those words of scripture that are about to be fulfilled."
It
was Orthon who replied. "We have always chosen ordinary people for our
messages," he said, "who would not distort the real meaning of our
words through the influence of their own thoughts and training. Only a
receptive mind without preconceived ideas is qualified to convey with fidelity
a message from higher realms. The fact that Earth people will not believe what
is told by a common person is proof of nothing but a discrimination based on
arrogance. Nevertheless, we know that those who want to hear this message, and
who love the truth, will not have this difficulty. Each one will feel the truth
of the message within his own heart. Scripture provides the touchstone, or test
of reality, for that which is coming upon your world. We speak to all men of
good will."
"It
is written," added Raphael, in his melodious voice, "that the Lord
God punished man with the worldwide deluge, and that he promised that this
would never happen again. The Bible also says that God made a covenant through
Noah with all mankind, even including those of generations yet to be born. He
gave Noah a sign as proof of His promise to him and his descendents: the sign
of His rainbow in the clouds. Clearly, He did not mean only the rainbow that
you see after a storm, but He chose the expression to symbolize His covenant
with Earthmen, who had rebelled against Him, and had been chastened with the
deluge. The bow was the sign of the bridge of union between two shores; the
divine, where dwelt His true children, and the human where His Earthly children
had chosen to rebel against His law of love. But He placed His bow in the
clouds of the heavens and decreed that the waters of a great flood never again
would fall upon the Earth, to bring sorrow to mankind. Now, when no clouds were
there, that might have brought rain, of what was the Father-God speaking? The
word 'cloud' meant flying ships, spaceships and starships; in other words,
God's covenant would be assigned to us, and, above all, to the one who is in
our midst, and who was sent to Earth, even this new Moses, who now will lead
Earth in its exodus from evil to the promised land of Eden."
"Isaiah
spoke of us when he asked, 'Who are these who fly like clouds, like doves to
their dovecotes?' He spoke of our flying discs, which fly to the motherships,
as you saw this night. The expression 'clouds' is found throughout the Bible.
Ezekiel found himself confronted by a great cloud, and he described the
starship. Read again what he recorded. And what were the pillars of cloud by
day and pillars of fire by night, that led the Hebrew people through the
wilderness? The cosmic majesty of the Lord God is revealed in His heavenly
hosts. He, the Lord of Hosts, has acted through the ages through us with these
signs of His presence. I already told you," Raphael said with emphasis,
"that the Lord spoke from the clouds, as is stated in the Psalms."
Raphael
turned now, in order to come back to the meadow where Zuhl was waiting with the
beamship and the disc. And he said, "It is written: 'I put My bow in the
clouds, and it will serve as a sign of the covenant between Me and the Earth.'
These signs you have before you, and they have been shown to millions of Earth
people. It is of utmost importance, "he said in a strong, clear tone,
"that whoever would understand, should understand the truth of the scriptures.
The truth illumines the understanding and enkindles the heart. On this basis we
do our work, and invite many persons of Earth to cooperate with us."
"Read
what is written!" he continued. "Read and consider carefully every
passage. God said to Noah: 'When I bring my clouds over the Earth, and the bow
shall be seen in the cloud, then I will remember my covenant, which is between
me and you and every living creature of all kinds, and never again shall the
waters become a flood to destroy all flesh."
"Do
you not think that the appearance of our craft in your skies becomes more
frequent? We assure you, God the Father has told us, that the time is now at
hand, in which He has determined to call forth the flagships of the true
children of Earth and soon the rainbow will be seen above them, in order that
the covenant between us and the Father may be known to all, a covenant which
will also be extended to the children of Earth. On these ships from the heavens
we will be found, and there will be before all, the one who promised to come in
the clouds of heaven in glory and power. He will take you you with us back to Eden, to dwell in His garden again.”
In
the meantime, we had arrived at the meadow, and I saw, in the background, the
glimmering light from the starship and from the disc, beside which Zuhl was
patiently waiting.
Now
Firkon took up the conversation: "It is good to emphasize that the hearts
of the people must be made receptive to the message of the scriptures, and that
it should be seen in relation to the signs of our times. Many would like to
solve everything by means of logic and intellectual study, but the truth is
much simpler and more profound than all their hair-splitting. The children of
the Father, who wish to know the truth, will sense that it speaks to their
hearts, and will open themselves to it. We will always be ready to help
you."
Raphael
put a hand on my shoulder, and looked at me with friendly earnestness.
"The revelations," he said, "that we have given you today will
come as a surprise to many, as they did to you. You will experience much
trouble and misunderstanding. It is necessary that this come about, in order
that the veil of unknowing be lifted from these things. Many persons of good
will will respond with belief and aid. Thus, they help to promote the work of
those who do good, and do not lie, and we will be with them. Now we must leave
you, but our greeting is as always,—until we meet again!" With warm
embraces, we bade a fond farewell. The three boarded the waiting disc, which disappeared
inside the starship a moment later. From the huge craft a humming sound could
be heard, and the light around it grew stronger, changing from pearl-white to
orange-gold. Then it quickly lifted starward, streaked like a flash of
lightning, and disappeared from sight.
Our
friends had remained near the spot where we had left them. Robert had recorded
the images that came into his mind telepathically, and had sketched exactly the
starship and the four discs. Nico had seen, from a nearby knoll, a light moving
erratically in the sky. Its zigzag course left no doubt of its identity. Anna
and Paul had followed parts of the conversation by means of cosmic contact,
mentally. Each one had received a sign that confirmed the reality of the direct
contact with the space brothers that Tina and I had experienced.
It
was with a feeling of great inner happiness, after this deeply moving
experience, that we drove back down to the Riviera to resume our journey back
to Genoa.
CHAPTER 7
A Meeting in the
Midst of People
One
evening, I invited Tina to go for a walk with me along the shore at Nervi. We
also asked our good friends, Paulo and Roberto,to come with us. We left our
auto near the train station, and started off on the road to the seacoast. It
was a beautiful evening and the air was mild. We walked for a long time along
the coast, stopping now and then to watch the play of waves that sprayed the
banks with foam. We had the feeling that something out of the ordinary was in
the air. In my mind I turned to Raphael, seeking to come into cosmic contact
with him, but I received no answer. We turned around and went back in the
direction of the station. But, as we reached the wide alley of palms with its
beautiful spring-like aroma, Tina and I both felt a sense of great peace come
over us.
Suddenly,
I was surprised by something and I pressed Tina's hand. She said nothing; she,
too, saw what had astonished me so: Raphael was walking on the sidewalk across
the street. He was accompanied by one of the other space brothers. The two were
walking leisurely, and with no apparent concern. If one had not known who they
were, one would have surely taken them for two distinguished looking men of
Earth. In a manner as inconspicuous as possible, I left the side of the street
where we were walking in order to draw nearer. Tina remained with our friends,
who seemed oblivious to what was going on.
Raphael
turned around, gave me a slight smile of recognition, but said, by means of
cosmic contact, that we could not converse together in normal speech at this
time. So I followed them from a short distance. There, before my eyes, was the
proof that the brothers were among us, working for us, even in these days!
Raphael
was wearing a very elegant looking suit made of a light weight blue fabric. The
other man was also elegant, but dressed more in sports attire. As I thought it
over, it became clear to me that the love which these beings felt toward us was
truly unconditional. They were ready to do everything possible in order to help
us, even to be one with us on Earth.
"When
you read the Bible," said Raphael in spirit, "you will find it is
written: 'Be not forgetful to be hospitable to strangers, for in so doing some
have entertained angels unawares.'"
He
continued on his walk, his companion at his side. I followed after them,
outwardly showing no particular interest, but I thought deeply about these
words of scripture. I could scarcely believe that I was being privileged to
experience these things which were so clearly stated there.
Raphael
continued, "Although we were received with love and respect by the
brothers of Earth in former times, that would not be the case today. On Earth,
as we have said before, there is less love than the air you breathe." Then
he said something, as if he were reassuring someone, and added,to me,
"Today we cannot show ourselves openly. Whoever will believe in the
goodness and truth of our message, will do so because he finds a parallel
within his own heart. Those who choose not to believe will also find ample
evidence of our presence in their midst. There will come a time when we can
show ourselves openly; then our joy will be great indeed!"
After
these words, he wished me well on my walk with my friends, and begged me not to
continue following him. He turned and sailed at me, and his companion did
likewise.
CHAPTER 8
Explanations and
Teaching
On
another occasion, a meeting with Raphael had been arranged. We arrived at the
meeting place as the sun was beginning to set. The travellers of the light did
not make us wait for them very long. We saw Raphael, and with him were Firkon,
Orthon, Kalna and Ilmuth. They came nearer and greeted us most heartily. We sat
down in the grass. From up here we could see the valley lying before us, and,
in the background, the sea. A few meters behind us, began the trees of the
forest.
Raphael
gave a quick glance toward Firkon, and I understood that he was asking him to
begin speaking. And so Firkon began, in his characteristically lively manner.
"When
we say to you that our starships travel rapidly about the universe, this must
not be understood to mean that we travel in material regions only. The universe
contains boundless regions beyond the material one that you know. The only
dimension that is observed by your science is the material. The cosmic
dimensions, however, are so rich in number and variety, that you cannot have
the faintest idea about them. It would take a great deal of time and knowledge
to begin to appreciate what we are telling you. In no way can you, with mere
fantasy, comprehend more than the smallest part of such a grand reality."
Firkon
waited to allow some of that which had just been said to penetrate our
understanding. I saw how attentively the space brothers, sitting around us,
were listening.
"In
the cosmos," he continued, "there is not the only material dimension.
There are ultra-material dimensions that encompass not only length, breadth and
depth, but a much greater richness of life-realities, as a consequence of which
all of that which you call behind, in front of, over, under, within and
without, become outmoded concepts. The higher a universe is, the more its
life-force expresses itself in new, free forms, and the consciousness extends
itself to a more comprehensive point of view. Each cosmic dimension is suitable
for a human body of a corresponding grade of development. Each new universe,
brought forth through man's soul development, represents itself to him and his
mind, which has attained a new and higher individuality, with a meaning and a
new way of thinking, which was unknown in the earlier outmoded dimension. Thus
each new step in the overall universe brings new realities and new
ways-of-being of the life force with it, and this derives directly from the
same universal laws that govern the whole creation. The more developed, and
thus complete, the dimensions are, the more the consciousness knows of that
which it experiences, namely love; the love by which all was created, and which
works within us. The all-embracing love is the life-force that holds together
all that is."
Firkon
paused again. The lively tone of his voice and his gestures gave life to his
discourse, which he illuminated with examples and comparisons.
"As
soon as a starship lands on the Earth," he said, "it is fully
materialized. It remains, however, enveloped in cosmic power, which makes it
independent of gravitational laws of the planet. For this reason, we can lift
off from the Earth with ease, and, in a moment, overcome all the laws known to
your physics. Thus we rise from the Earth at the ideal velocity for
dematerialization with no difficulty at all, because we are not constrained by
the law of gravity. When we raise the frequency of our life-vibration, we find
ourselves perfectly attuned to the life of other dimensions. Quite voluntarily
we can ascend to the heavens of higher dimensions, or descend to lower
dimensions, even to this material stage."
I
wanted to ask a question: ”- The starships," I asked, "- in which
dimension do you construct these?"
Firkon
smiled and explained: "We can build than in whatever dimension we wish.
For us, it is quite simple. When one has great Knowledge and uses it in
complete harmony with the creation, the universal laws of God our Father
cooperate willingly. Then all things are good, and all things are possible.”
"In
the scriptures it is said repeatedly that all that God the Father created was
good, even very good; for it was the work of His hands. The hardships came
first to those who wanted to explore evil ways. They wandered away from a
knowledge of the universal laws, and their ignorance led to arrogance. Every
good child of the Father puts himself with simplicity and perfect trust into
the hands of his Creator, who has not left anything out of consideration for
his well-being. He works through creation itself, and through His more highly
developed children. They stand nearer to Him, and know better His laws of love.
When, however, His children, as has happened on Earth, no longer put their
trust in the One who made all that is, and become rebellious and proud, then
everything becomes difficult and involved."
Firkon
indicated, with a gesture to Orthon, that he should continue the discourse.
Orthon began to smile, and said, "We showed Jacob the ladder which
extended from Earth up to Heaven. He saw the angels ascending and descending
it. Do you not think," he asked, "that this ladder represents all the
cosmic dimensions which separate Earth from Heaven? We traverse all these steps
from Heaven to you below,and return back up again. At the top of this ladder is
Heaven's gate."
Tina
asked for an explanation of this Heavenly gate which Orthon spoke of. "The
cosmic domain," he responded, "which we call Heaven's gate,
comprises, to state it practically, the last dimensions whose form yet
corresponds to that which you know. Beyond that is found the universe of pure
absolutes, the pure life-force, the essence of life, which no longer needs the
means of outer form for expression. To give you some idea of that," he
explained further, "below Heaven's gate, in the cosmic regions and in
their universes and worlds, there are many, many levels of existence in space,
but above that region are the conscious essences that build space. The higher
one rises in the cosmos toward Heaven's gate, the more one frees one's self
from form, in order ever more freely to express the universal consciousness. To
realize this is the highest potential within us, and one comes consciously to
the bosom of the Creator in a state of holy godliness. The vision of the
eternal becomes ever deeper and more real. But one's development never ceases.
The Father-Creator has no limits, and also sets no limits on His good children
who wish to travel the infinite path of His Godly love."
Now
Tina posed a further question: "When one in prayer says, 'Our Father, who
art in Heaven,'—does that 'Heaven' refer to a place beyond the Heaven's gate,
or also to cosmic space?"
Orthon
smiled. "God," he answered, "cannot be confined to any space,
either cosmic or supra-cosmic. But beyond Heaven's gate, in the highest purity
of consciousness, one possesses always an immediate awareness of the godly
essence. The participation in the reality of God becomes ever more constant and
spontaneous. Therefore, Heaven is the Godhead itself, which brings space into
being, but one also understands it to mean every level within space, which is
to be attained in this upward progression toward the Creator, the source of all
knowledge and all happiness."
A
look came over Firkon's face, as though he were about to express a thought that
was especially difficult to understand. "It is, to be sure, a question of
technical expression and of word usage, but the most important concepts can
best be sketched in broad strokes as we have here been doing it. All that is
expressed in words suffers a limitation. The cosmos is a world of limitless
wonders. The abodes of the heavens represent the flowering of consciousness
with respect to the unlimited possibilities of love, which is the foundation
for everything, the life-giving essence of the universe. Love is divinity itself.
The ladder of development of the life-force, the dimensions, the abodes of
life, the path of the carrier of divine consciousness, —nothing in Creation is
found wanting or idle. The Father created everything with infinite care, with
the finest gradation, and with incomprehensible love. The marvelous laws of the
universe stand at the service of His children, whom He loves with an infinite
love. They, however, have been given so high a degree of freedom and dignity,
that they have the possibility of opposing God's plan of love and everlasting
life, and bringing it to utter confusion. Man must come to realize that he is a
creature with the single limitation that he is not God, and therefore it is to
God alone that he owes obedience and love. The sin of forgetting that, was the
beginning of evil in the cosmos."
I
thought about the fact that Earth men seem to conduct their lives as though
this were the only one. So I put the question to Raphael: "Isn't it
possible to give some concrete evidence to Earthmen as proof that there are
other worlds where beings like you are living? That would surely bring more
certainty to their thinking; for they live in the error of maintaining that
after life on this Earth, there can be no other."
Raphael
looked at me with loving kindness, but in his eyes was a half-veiled sadness,
which seemed to me almost like a reproach. "You still do not
understand," he said after a pause, "that it is not the outward proof
that will cause many to turn from error and wrong-doing. So many proofs have
been given to man over the many thousands of years of a history full of blood
and injustice. But these were rejected, and so, for many, the responsibility
and blame grew greater. Jesus gave many proofs during His public life, also as
He died on the cross, and even after His death.
Few,
however, have accepted them. Today, many people are seeing things which would
make it possible to accept the reality of what we have told you, yet they have
given them a misleading explanation. And when they are persuaded to give up
their skepticism, they console themselves by saying that one day these facts
will be explained by conventional science. Your world will not be saved by
proofs, but by the love, patience and belief of those on Earth who are already
spiritually progressed, namely men and women of good will. The unlimited power
of love will triumph over evil, which is ultimately limited in its nature. So
your way of death and of rule by force will come to an end. The love of the
Father, and of His children, who are true to Him, will be the irresistible
power that moves the stubborn-hearted; then will their minds be opened. Of what
use is it to appropriate new truths without first having gotten rid of the
errors in one's way of thinking? It would only increase the burden of blame.
You must understand," he said, "that the light that is given mankind
is just that which is most useful, not more, for too much would harm the eyes
of your understanding, so accustomed to the darkness."
"Does
that mean," I asked, "that this illumination will come not all at
once, but in gradual steps?"
"That's
right," responded Raphael, who seemed to have grown more cheerful.
"God does not wish to destroy, and our actions toward His erring children
are in accordance with His love. Still, it is important to do all that is
possible to make sure that the paths to evil do not extend beyond certain
allowable limits. The farther His children stray from the right path, the more
painful is the return. Suffering is the great universal voice that yearns for
salvation. It is the echo of that which God the Father feels, whose anguish is
immeasurably greater than all the sorrows of His creatures. He allows His
children, beset by fears, to taste a tiny crumb of this divine anguish, in
order that they may come to realize that true happiness comes only by staying
close to Him, in His truth and wisdom." Silence reigned. I had never
thought about the fact that God was a Being who could suffer anguish. I had
imagined that nothing could disturb His infinite bliss. Firkon looked into my
eyes; I knew that he could read my thoughts. He smiled; then he grew more
earnest, and said: "Certainly, my dear, nothing can touch the infinite
bliss of God. But that does not mean that He cannot, at the same time, sorrow
over the waywardness and suffering of His children. He suffers with them, but
He does not lose His divine bliss."
Then
he was quiet and thoughtful. He sighed, and added with great earnestness:
"If you could only know what is meant by the sorrows of God!.." He
said no more; I only noted he seemed suffused with sadness. I saw in him a
great son of the Father's, totally dedicated to manifesting the limitless love
of that infinite Being, a Being who had given His children the extraordinary
gift of freedom, and did not deserve to have such a trust betrayed.
I
asked a pardon for my slowness of comprehension and my hardness of heart.
Raphael smiled and said that all creation was a school of love. He assured me
that this was a truth that would be verified to anyone who opened his heart to
goodness and simplicity.
Now
Kalna's sweet voice joined with the others in conversation; her countenance was
radiant. "The scriptures," she said, "often speak of the
innermost heart in which God speaks to His children. It is in the dimension of
the spirit, that part of the human being which corresponds to the innermost
consciousness. Heart and spirit mean the same thing, in the scriptures. The
heart does not concern itself with the difficulties of understanding, but it is
capable of immersing itself in the contemplation of God, in His love, His
truth, and His very Being. When the children of the Father cross the border we
have called Heaven's gate, and enter the universe of pure spirit, then do they
see with unobstructed vision the Divine in its infinite wonder; then do they
participate in everlasting life, not with the mind's understanding, but in a
clearer fashion by the heart and soul. Men of Earth have placed inordinate
value on the mind's ability to analyze and formulate, but they have imprisoned
the heart. They have become lost in a labyrinth of thought, and have allowed
pride to establish its presence in the all-pervading intellectual process.
First, errant understanding sought to nullify the heart, and directed all its
disrupting activity toward its enslavement. But to destroy the dimension of the
heart is to bring about everlasting death, the death of the spirit, the
ultimate repudiation. Jesus spoke truly to you concerning these matters. Your
misfortunes," Kalna continued, "stem from the fact that, in you, mind
and heart stand in constant conflict. Or, to put it a better way, you have set
matter and spirit against each other. This state of war arises from the pride
that dwells within you. Pride leads to trouble. All of your afflictions, in the
dimension of the spirit, come from your mind, which is permeated with pride. If
you could free your mind from its presumptious arrogance, and become meek and
simple, pure and good, as the Father-God created you, then you would solve the
whole problem of evil and your unhappiness."
Now
Ilmuth entered the conversation. Her eyes sparkled. "You are
convinced," she said, "that it is hard to get rid of pride. You are
right about that, for just now are you able to see everything through the lens
of understanding, and also the way of purification. Moreover, you have been
taught a perfectionistic way of purification, which for you is not realistic,
so that you finally came to the conclusion that the way of goodness for you on
Earth was impossible. Also, this came about because your teachers and spiritual
guides were themselves often full of pride and perfectionism. In reality,
however, the way to purification and release from overweaning pride consists of
small steps, a gradual purification, bit by bit. Similarly, one breathes more
and more oxygen into the lungs, in order to rid the body of toxins. Your spirit
has all the potential needed to bring about a complete turnaround, if you would
daily bring to your consciousness more humility and simplicity, and you would
also discover that you are something more than you previously believed you
were. On the other hand, if you allow yourselves each day to go a little
farther toward evil, through ignorance and arrogance, then the dimension of
your heart will die as surely as if stabbed to death, without your even being
aware of it. God is good. He regards lovingly even the smallest impulses toward
good within your heart. He requires very little from His lost children, in
order that they might be saved. But if one is to be saved from overweaning
pride, one must turn away from arrogant thoughts. Humility and simplicity lead
to humility and simplicity. Love and patience lead to love and to inner peace.
Don't think too much about your badness, but much more about the goodness of
the Father, and of His faithful children, who work for your well-being in His
name."
Now
Raphael spoke again; "The intellect," he said, "has the ability
to alter and distort that which it receives from the dimension of the heart.
Yet a thoughtful and well-disciplined mind, not in contradiction to the voice
of the Spirit, can help the heart to express its unique wisdom. The intellect
becomes ensnared if it represses or subverts this wisdom. Then the heart and
the mind become enemies of each other, and the result is all manner of
misfortune and sickness, which have brought so much pain and hardship into your
lives.”
"I
repeat: the mind can become the enemy of the all-embracing love and laws of
God, and can be used to destroy the love within the human heart. The way which
has been shown to you, as we have pointed out several times, is the way of
simplicity, humility, and loving-kindness. Strive toward these things, for you
owe it to God. Pray to Him for a new mind and you will see salvation
come."
Ilmuth
continued, "For one who loves the good, there is no death. It is a great
error to believe that everything ends with the death of the physical body. This
is the fruit of inner blindness and ignorance. To die means to be born with a
new body on another planet; it means to allow new life potentials hidden within
you to find expression. To enter life in new worlds means to allow a more
highly developed consciousness to become active; it means to be happier in a
higher state of awareness, in an environment with richer possibilities.”
"Jesus
warned men of Earth to beware, lest the love within their hearts be swallowed
up by their pride, and the brilliance of their minds, for thus they may become
spiritually impoverished to such a degree that they can no longer be born on
higher planets, but they run the risk of falling into such a state of confusion
that it can only be compared with death. The sorrow of the Father over these
lost children is so great that they become aware of it; their troubles
increase, because their stubborn wills refuse to free themselves from their
imprisonment by their own hardness of heart. There are some who are so obdurate
and behave so abominably that they not only become depraved themselves, but
they drag others down with them; they become virtual demons, —with such, how
can one not speak of death? There is always hope of salvation, but it is not
right to presume upon the generosity and loving kindness of so trustworthy a
Father. This can bring suffering, for God is just. Woe unto us, if He were
not!"
There
followed a silence that seemed somehow like an admonition. The sun had already
set, and the mountains were enveloped in a dark blue haze. The valley seemed to
have grown more mysterious.
Raphael
said it was time to bring our visit to a close, but he also promised to meet
again with us soon. "We have much more to say to you," he remarked.
Evening
was near, and the twilight drew its soft mantle over all the surrounds. We bade
farewell like friends of long standing, sad that we must part. We were asked by
Raphael to stand back a few dozen meters. We saw the little door of the flying
disc begin to open, and a snow-white light shone through, illuminating all the
surrounding flora. All went aboard, and again raised hands in a gesture of
friendship. Then the door closed noiselessly once more and immediately the disc
rose up with unbelievable speed. Shortly afterwards, it had disappeared from
sight. The meadow grass was pressed down flat where the disc had rested, while
taller grasses rustled slightly in the breeze.
CHAPTER 9
A Light on the Sea
On
the evening of the fifteenth of June, I was at home, and was just about to read
a portion of the book of Genesis, when I was aware of coming into cosmic
contact. The voice of Firkon was inviting me to come with Tina and our friends
to Nervi. We drove there and parked near the railway station, as before, then
started off on a long walk, but nothing unusual was seen or heard. Yet I
remained calm; I was certain that the brothers would show up before long. We walked
first on the road to the small village, then turned and came back on a walkway
by the sea. Gianna said she was ready to spend the whole night walking, if they
could surely see something. I responded that patience would always be rewarded,
yet, in my heart, I began to fear that, for whatever reason, they might not be
able to appear.
Suddenly,
however, we saw a white light coming across from the sea, from the direction of
San Fruttos. In his excitement, Paolo shouted out loudly and I had to urge him
to regain control of himself.
The
light came nearer, until it was about fifty meters from the shore which our
walkway bordered. Now the flying disc was there, where it could be easily seen
by all, and Paolo and Gianna called out excitedly, "It is really them! It
is the brothers!"
Paolo
had a clear cosmic contact, and he could tell us exactly what was about to
happen throughout the various phases of the encounter. "Now they are
switching on the white light on the underside," he said. And the light
really did go on. "Now they are making the light brighter!" And the
light would grow brighter. "Now they are about to dim the lights!" And
the lights would grow dimmer.
And
so it continued. Paolo announced in a loud voice when the red, green and blue
lights would go on, and they promptly did so. The flying disc changed many
different colors, and then flew off in a southwest direction and disappeared
over the horizon.
The
voice of Raphael reached me in cosmic contact, recommending that we restrain
our eagerness for a contact, and suggesting that we leave that area. I was
afraid that the other people there, who had also seen the disc, might stop us
and question us about it, but Raphael assured me that this would not happen.
There
was an older couple near us who stood there literally open-mouthed, staring
into the heavens. They probably could not possibly have made sense out of what
was really there. Perhaps they could have believed it was some unusual
aircraft. I thought about giving some such explanation to them, but Raphael
advised me not to do it.
I
obeyed, and we went from there with great joy in our hearts.
CHAPTER 10
The Blessed Lady
The
following meeting took place in the grain fields of the great plains region. We
had spent many hours to get there by auto. As always, we were directed by
cosmic contact. The weather was warm and pleasant, though the sun was from time
to time covered by a thick cloud. Having arrived at the place of meeting, we
left the car and continued by foot alongside the fields of grain. The arch of
the heavens seemed much wider than it did in the mountainous regions where our
previous contacts had taken place. Suddenly, we saw several formations of
flying discs going by, such a number of spacecraft that we were utterly amazed.
As each formation flew by, there was a distinctively pleasant sound, as of
waves, or the music of innumerable heavenly choirs.
Then
we saw the starship coming from a certain point in the sky. It came closer, and
then came to a stop, hovering several hundred meters over the field of
partly-harvested golden grain. A flying disc emerged, larger and more beautiful
than any we had seen before.
Tina,
as always, broke out with irrepressible shouts of joy. The cosmic flying disc
landed on the small strip of meadow land that separated two grain fields.
Raphael, Firkon, Orthon, Kalna and Ilmuth got out, accompanied by a young woman
of exceptional beauty, who impressed us deeply. All were simply dressed, with
loose flying suits or long dresses that came to the ankles. The fabric seemed light
and without seams, and the colors shimmered from beige to light blue, and from
blue to violet. The young woman was dressed in soft, sky-blue; her hair was
chestnut blond, and fell to her shoulders. She wore a pair of sandals that
seemed to be woven of gold, yet gave off such an irridescent splendor of many
colors as to be beyond description. She appeared to be about twenty years of
age. Her lovely eyes were blue, and expressed a great kindness and
understanding. A quality of refinement and magnanimity radiated from her whole
being. She moved with a graceful, natural simplicity as she came toward us.
"Welcome
to this meeting with us, which we have desired for so long a time," she
said softly.
Raphael
made the suggestion that we sit in the shadow of a large tree that stood on the
edge of the little meadow between the two grain fields.
The
big disc rested on the ground a few dozen meters away from us and we could only
see it from a standing position; when we sat down, it was concealed by the tall
growth. Everyone found a comfortable spot. The charming young lady sat on a
small rise of ground covered with soft grasses. Raphael said that the cosmic
beamship, which we could still see motionless in the sky, was protected by a
magnetic field, and would be invisible to other human eyes.
The
brothers made known their joy in being with us, and we did the same. Then all
became quiet, and the lovely young woman from the higher realms began to speak.
"When
it is permitted to you to travel throughout space in our starships, there will
be many other things that we wish from our hearts to share with you. The
present mission has as its purpose to bring you the knowledge, and allow you to
have the experiences, to make it possible for you to bring our message to your
Earth brothers. All life in the universe is connected in the present moment.
When a planet is in danger, and threatens the peace and harmony of the Father's
whole family, we seek to save it, in His name."
All
of us had turned toward her, and we listened with rapt attention. The reddish
sunlight fell on her face in an engaging play of color and shadow which served
to enhance her great natural beauty, while her words and gestures bespoke an
extraordinary wisdom and knowledge.
"The
good," she continued, "elicits further good, and joy responds with
joy. Love stimulates more love, and knowledge promotes knowledge. The whole
life of the cosmos is in motion. The same law holds true for the bad, which
leads to more of the bad, when it does not serve to demonstrate the futility
and harm of wrong action. On your planet, wrong action has brought about more
harm, through death and destruction, than was ever known in former times.
Nevertheless, we are here to assure you that everything necessary will be done
to save you."
She
was quiet for a while, which only served to focus our attention more sharply,
if that were possible. "All children of universal love are now working for
your planet, which finds itself in mortal danger. Soon the people of planet
Earth will experience a period of tribulation, such as you have never known in
all of your past history."
Now
the wonderful lady spoke slowly, and sadness veiled her countenance; her voice
was touched with melancholy. In spite of that, her majestic bearing seemed in
no way diminished; on the contrary it was enhanced. "We are," she
began again, "unsatisfied with the conduct of the Earth brothers. In the
course of time, we have allowed numerous warnings to be given, and there has
been no lack of signs. But still, the originators of death and destruction have
carried on with their dreadful plans, and the others paid no attention, not
wishing to become too involved, and thinking only of their own affairs. The
Father can no longer suffer the foolish obstinacy of many Earth people, and
soon these will bring upon themselves a mighty chastisement which will serve to
purify their hearts, but also, to bring about the destruction of many of the
good and beautiful things that have been accomplished on this planet."
With
astouding clarity, this exalted being from the higher realms explained what lay
on her heart. "We extend to the inhabitants of Earth a final invitation,
in order that all who, from their hearts, wish for the victory of the good, and
the return to the simple, treasured values of life, can join together with us
in our efforts for your salvation. As long as the children of Earth do not
conclusively renounce the evil tendencies that are within them, we cannot grant
them any further knowledge. The Earth cannot remain as it is at present; a new
age is needed, to bring all humanity to the point where it can take the right
steps to a development which win deliver it from a thousands-of-years-long
history of blood and destruction."
Her
soft voice bespoke both a sense of sorrow and of urgency. "We invite all
people of good will to lift their eyes to heaven, to become better every day,
even if for only a few minutes, to open their hearts to humility and loving
kindness at least in some small way, so that their eyes will be opened and they
will see clearly the enormous danger of Earth's present situation. Then, and
only then, will our message of hope and salvation take root within your hearts.
One does not have to do very much, but that little which can be done, must be
done on a daily basis, in the everyday things of life, and the changes must
come in every heart."
With
a sigh, she added, "No one on Earth can avert the destruction that
heedless men have prepared for the planet. The rescue must come from heaven; we
need the cooperation of all, and a return to compassion and rectitude. This is
a goal that truly can be attained by each individual in himself, and in his
surroundings; each one can lay a small stone. Many stones will be added by us,
and then we will provide for the remainder, so that the edifice of love and
preservation for the future may be erected. Our concern for you," she said
with a heavy sigh, "is a small part of that of the Father's. In recent
years, you have come to a point in history which, to say the least, is far
beyond the borders allowed by the Father's universal law, and you take no
notice of it, as if you were blind. We send you warnings continually, but you
heed them not, as if you were deaf. You do not want to pray, for want of
humility, to the One who could save you, and you steer toward an unprecedented
disaster as though it were nothing to be concerned about at ail. We want you to
come to see this clearly, and to do what the righteous universal laws require,
in order that we may spare you enormous suffering. Some suffering is necessary,
in order for a new day to dawn upon your planet, in which pain and evil are
overcome, but it is possible to avoid the worst,—perhaps it is still possible.
This is the last great message of love and preservation that we will give, in
order to jar your consciences awake to see the things which stand at your
door."
Her
eyes met mine, and then Tina's. I was shaken to the core, for I thought, if
this was the last warning, we must have arrived at a point where the outlook
was exceedingly grave. I felt for a moment utterly confounded, yet the grace
and compassion of her countenance saved me from complete despair.
"We
will never be believed," I said. "No one will want to believe that
you have given us a last warning about the danger hanging over the Earth."
To
this, she responded: "The events soon to occur will make many of the proud
become humble, and those who are more agreeable by temperament will become more
receptive as they see increasingly that events are occurring exactly as you
have told them. When God asked Moses to deliver His people from bondage, and
Moses expressed his doubt that people would believe in his mission, the Lord
assured him they would believe him because they would see with their own eyes
that his words were being fulfilled. Certainly you also must accept the fact
that many will laugh at you and contradict you, and your words will not serve
to better those who are lacking in humility. But you should say them anyway,
and we will stand beside you. It is urgently necessary for all to keep the true
situation before their eyes, and to encourage each one to change his or her
thinking and individual life toward more simplicity and compassion, even if
only a little each day. We will also teach you to pray, and everyone will see
that prayer is the most beautiful response that the children can make to the
Father. Nothing is simpler or greater than to put one's self in union with the
whole brotherhood of universal love of the children of the good Father and
Creator. This is another one of those things that Earthmen of simplicity and
good will must continue to do if the planet is to be saved."
Her
last words were not clear in my mind. Had I understood what she was saying? She
read my thoughts, and said, "To pray means to lift one's own heart to heaven,
to the Creator, and to us, His faithful children. Pray in the way you find most
effective, at the time that suits you best, but neglect not to pray! It
requires so little, but it accomplishes so much."
With
great earnestness, she continued, "The present times on Earth were
foretold thousands of years ago. The signs that would herald this age were also
foretold. These signs have now been given, and continue to be given. However,
man on Earth is too egotistically preoccupied with thoughts of his own personal
advantage, with his needless fears, and the continual pursuit of his misguided
ways. We will speak of that in more detail when we are on board our starship.
Above all, I want to tell you that a wonderful time lies ahead for planet
Earth. That long-foretold age will come, in which the dreams of people of good
will can be fulfilled; there will be no more death, or sickness or sorrow.
Righteousness will come alive in the hearts and lives of the children of Earth.
But mankind has the power to thwart this final consummation of the planet,
through acts of irretrievable destructiveness. We would take a hand in things,
to rescue those who would be sacrificed to such total devastation. It is
incumbent on all of you to prevent such a catastrophe, and to make possible
that, after the storm, a time of peace and joy shall come to Earth on its
upward climb toward the happy state of the more highly developed planets. At
all events, this time shall come, and it could be very soon. After that, all
prophecies will be fulfilled, concerning the last days. Truly, these things
foretold in the scriptures will occur, but the hour and duration is known only
to God, for the reason that the freedom of all His children is genuine, and not
one of appearances only."
My
mind contested with my heart, which fully grasped the meaning of her words. The
majestic lady from the higher realms smiled, and gave me renewed courage.
"Do
not try to understand all at once those things which will be explained to you
later. We will prepare you gradually, so that you will not be overwhelmed. We
will also help you to accept the things of great import that will be revealed
to you. This is quite necessary, and you need never fear losing your inner
balance; we will give you peace and tranquility, strength and courage. You,
yourself, will be astonished about this."
I
was grateful to her, and I could see that Tina had a more relaxed expression on
her face. What I was hearing seemed to me more important than I had thought at
first, and a feeling of dreadful apprehension almost overpowered me. But in a
moment it left me. Now I felt free again, and no longer doubted the help which
would be given to us, or that the Earth brothers would be receptive to this
great message of assistance from these wonderful beings and the exalted lady
from the higher realms.
"Whatever
is necessary will come to pass," she said, "but soon the words of the
prophets will be fulfilled, and the whole world will be astonished." Her
expression was that of one who is thoughtfully recollecting words that are
engraved on her heart.
"Now,"
she said, with a voice of certainty, "I am about the Father's businss,
creating a new Heaven and a new Earth. The things of the past will no longer be
thought about; they will not return to mind. And what follows will be a life of
ongoing joy."
She
was silent again, and her expression was one of surpassing kindness and grace.
Tenderly, she looked first at Tina, and then at the others, as though she
wished to speak to the whole race of mankind, saying, "The wolf and the
lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. There shall
be no more evil on the Earth, nor destruction. Behold, this is what will soon
come to pass on Earth after the time of tribulation."
"We
would like," she continued, "to talk to you further about all the
beauty that awaits you, but we cannot allow you to forget the conditions that
really exist on Earth today. As a result of self-serving actions of many
individuals, there is war, poverty, and oppression, and you will have to endure
a painful period of cleansing, before the words which I quoted are fulfilled in
reality. Pray that the time of evil my be shortened. "
Raphael
seemed overburdened with a great sadness, and so did the others. Their outward
appearance reflected a lively participation in the thoughts expressed by this
noble being from the higher worlds. Her demeanor bespoke resoluteness and
composure. She continued, "Sodom and Gomorrah were, in fact, destroyed by
fire, in order that they might be saved by a different destiny than is provided
by the material form of manifestation, which they had so abused. We are here
for the sake of all Earth children, to warn you of an impending holocaust. If
we were to show ourselves today, as in former times, we would fare no better than
did those brothers who were sent to tell them of imminent doom. The corrupt
people of that city wanted to use force against our messengers. Today, we would
be treated even more disrespectfully? at best, with indifference or with
condescending smiles."
She
looked at me directly, and there was reassurance in her radiant eyes. It calmed
the wild anxiety her words had aroused in my heart.
"We
will not do as we did before," she began again, "when we intervened
with fire, as we do not wish to allow you to be swallowed up in an abyss? today
you have prepared your own chastisement. We will use the fire to wrest new life
from the devastation which you have initiated, and which will lay waste to the
whole planet. It would do no good to take from you the death-dealing weapons of
your arsenals? you would promptly build new ones. The use of those weapons
would inflict such punishment on yourselves, in terms of death and destruction,
that you would soon come to your senses. The planet would rise again, inhabited
by those who had earned the right to dwell thereon in the new days. Then would
the Earth once again be the Garden of Eden."
I
recalled to mind the picture of the consequences of atomic warfare, which the
brothers had shown me. My home city, along with many others, had disappeared
from the face of the Earth, and, after the purification by fire, plants and
grasses began to grow again. Scattered dwellings, people cultivating the soil,
animals, and scenes of beauty and simplicity filled my heart with love and joy.
I saw how the brothers came and worked together with these new people of Earth.
I could also see that communication had been established between the brothers
and Earth people. I understood that a rapid development would enable our planet
to participate in the great cosmic realities before long.
Some
people, who lived where my city is now, had gone aboard a starship. These
pictures, which were being shown me, ran quickly through my mind, in vivid
accompaniment to the words just spoken by the lady from the higher realms.
Again, I saw what was impressed on my mind a short time before: people were
fleeing to the hills, while, in the valleys below, atom bomb explosions in
chain reaction were showering destruction everywhere.
I
saw thousands of flying discs and starships arrive. Men, women and children
were entering open doors, others were sucked up and lifted off the ground, for
there was not even time for a landing, the rescue work was so urgent. Again I
saw these things, and found that the words of this wonderful lady had described
the true circumstances of humanity's plight in the greatest detail.
She
waited until my thoughts and great agitation had calmed down somewhat, and then
continued, "Unfortunately, Earth people today think the scriptures are
only fairy tales, and take great pains to convince others like themselves that
all that stands written there is merely symbolic. That is a great evil, which
serves to spread the delusion still more. Noah was laughed at when he foretold
the flood, which then really did come. It is written that that came about as a
result of corruption of the souls of that time. When the force of one's very
spirit becomes corrupt, then the material and cosmic life, which are in very
close union with the spiritual, must share the burden of all the consequences.
All spiritual pollution causes pollution in the other dimensions, which
maintain a living interdependency with the spirit. Your planet is becoming ever
more impure because you are impure in your hearts. The wickedness, and
therefore impurity, of the people of Noah's time brought about the catastrophe
that came to them. Today a much greater one faces you, in view of the
consequences for the whole Earth. We give you this last warning in the hope
that you will come to realize the true situation you are in, but we have no
intentions of putting our brothers in the dangerous position of those at the
time of Sodom and Gomorrah, when the inhabitants of those cities sought to take
our emissaries by force."
Her
voice
became firmer, without, however, losing its softness of tone. The
gestures of her expressive hands served to emphasize the force of her
words,
"You, today, believe less than ever in the prophesies, even though they
have been fulfilled, time and time again. Soon the lament over Babylon
will be a reality on Earth. Already the three angels of the apocalypse
have come to
warn mankind of the impending disaster, but no one, or at least only a
few,
have accepted their message, or even heard them. For a long time, the
prayers
of the martyrs have sought the end of suffering and injustice for the
good
brothers on Earth. The seventh seal has already been opened by those who
had
the power to do it, and still have. Now, because of the stubbornness and
folly
of many, the Earth will hear the seven thunderclaps and drink from the
seven
goblets which hold the seven plagues. But this time will be greatly
shortened
because of the prayers of the righteous, as it is written."
We
saw the eyes of the beautiful young woman fill with tears, luminous droplets shining
on her dark lashes. Tina cried, and said that she wished to console her in her
deep sorrow. I was embarrassed, and acknowledged to myself that I would never
understand why these exalted creatures took upon themselves the burden of our
predicament. In them was only love, with no desire to use violence against the
great evils of this Earth, which were causing so much trouble for the cosmos. I
thought of the Father's sorrow, and realized it was inevitable that these
children, who loved Him so very much, would share in His sorrow. But still, my
thoughts were a jumble of confusion. I understood, and yet again I didn't. I
was tremendously moved.
The
gracious lady turned toward Tina, who was weeping, to comfort her: "All
people of Earth who long for true justice and the triumph of the love of the
Universal Father on Earth, have nothing to fear. If we were able to bring
succor to one small group of people in the wilderness, then you can imagine
what great help and support we could give the race of man assembled under the
banner of Almighty God in the unprecedented wastelands of this most fateful
time in history. We would be above you and at your side. We would never abandon
you, and through you we would be able to bring many brothers to safety, who
otherwise would have been lost."
"In
those days," she continued, as Tina wiped the tears from her eyes,
"it was Moses who led his people, whom we wished to rescue from slavery.
There were very important reasons why we chose to do this, for their sake.
Today, the hour of universal truth has struck, and a new Moses will lead all
who wish it to safety, without regard to race or nationality. He will be able
to read in each heart the slightest longing for goodness and justice, which is
the same as universal love."
The
young woman was silent, and Raphael indicated that he had something to say.
"It is written," he commenced, "that, in that moment, of two men
working in the field, one will be taken and the other left behind; of two women
grinding at the mill, one will be taken and the other left behind. Whoever
meets the prerequisites to be rescued will be rescued. We cannot force anyone,
not even for the purpose of rescuing them. Brothers cannot be brought to other
worlds against their wishes. The Father never uses force to compel one to come
to Him. Each one does it freely, on his or her own volition. Since the hour is
nigh, it is necessary to think carefully about this, so that the time, which
has been prepared by the insanity of man, will not come as a surprise."
Firkon
gestured with his hand, to indicate that he, too, wished to speak. "The
scriptures tell you," he said, "to be conscientious in your devotion,
but today hypocrisy and denial abound. It was said that signs in the heavens
would herald the new age of love on Earth, although this would be preceded by
great tribulation. Does it not seem to you that these are the signs foretold?
Our starships and flying discs are seen by people of Earth in ever greater
numbers. There are lights that move in the heavens, and signs in the sun, the
moon and the stars. Many persons are witnesses to these extraordinary
occurrences. Haven't you begun to realize that for some time now we have been
signaling to you the approaching fulfillment of all prophesies? The signs
already are seen in the heavens. Strange things are happening, as foretold in
the writings of John? for example, the waters that turned red in the rivers and
seas. The mighty rulers of Earth now have the means to kill the people and
leave the material things undisturbed. These and other things, when you
consider them thoughtfully, confirm that you are in the times that were
foretold. "
Orthon
sighed, and said, "Rumors of war and nation against nation never before
occurred under the circumstances of today, when it is possible to destroy the
whole planet. Not to see this is blindness, and not to hear of it, deafness
indeed! The one who has come to bring you these tidings implores you to be
understanding, and not to dissemble. That which touches you on the human level
you do understand. Likewise, open your hearts and minds to these things which
can bring you true happiness." Orthon became quiet, and I noted that he
was finished with what he had to say.
The
gracious lady from the universe arose, and we all did the same. The sun was now
lower, and lightly veiled in misty clouds, which painted the sky with reddish
strokes. We walked through the wheat fields, and the young woman stroked some
of the heads of grain. Then she stood still and turned to us: "Fear not!
No person of good will should allow anxiety or fear to touch his or her heart.
Whoever loves peace and truth, for them there will soon be great celebration.
Not a hair of your head will be touched, except there be a redeeming purpose,
known only to the great Universal Father."
She
went a few steps in the direction of the disc-shaped craft, which one could now
see behind the stalks of grain. Majestically it rested there and reflected the
colors of the sky from the surfaces of the round dome, which appeared to be a
crystalline meld of metal and glass. No lights were visible inside it, yet the
gleam of reflection was such that one might expect it to burst forth with light
at any moment. With majestic dignity, the young woman raised her gracious,
all-loving eyes to mine; from them, there seemed to emanate a powerful radiance
that penetrated deep into my soul and granted me unspeakable joy and inner
peace.
"In
the appearances at Fatima," she said, "thousands of people witnessed
the great apocalyptic sign in the sun. Two great wars were unequivocal proofs
of the truth of that message, which is the same message I have given you, and
is nothing other than a clarification of the scriptures for your times. You are
living in the days that immediately precede the thousand year kingdom forseen
by John. Soon you will understand what he meant by his prophesy of this kingdom
and the first resurrection. You will experience what it means for the survivors
to be taken up into the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. Very soon the new
day will come," she added in a firm voice, "in which a new humanity
will dwell on the Earth. The animals will no longer be wild, neither poisonous
nor harmful. Your fears about the sad events that are anticipated will change
to unimaginable joy. We will be with you during the time this is coming to
fulfillment, and after that, in the New Age of universal love on your
planet."
I
was certain that I would see her again. Now Raphael said that the time of
departure had come.
The
flying disc opened to receive these distinguished persons who had come to us
from the higher realms of the universe, and lifted up into the rose-colored
evening sky. There, it turned gracefully and entered the mother ship, which
hovered high above the grain fields. In a moment, the spaceship zoomed toward
the sun, its colors changing from deep blue to light orange. We stood there,
spellbound by the beauty of the setting sun.
CHAPTER 11
The Sun Miracle
On
the twenty-ninth of June, 1980, I invited our friends on an outing in the
Bracco region, and for the first time, Gianna came with us. I knew that the
brothers would give some sign of their presence, and therefore I had agreed
with Tina that I would go ahead to the mountains alone, in the hope of having
at least a short close encounter.
At
three o'clock in the afternoon, we exited the highway at Levanto, in order to
drive farther into the mountains. After a short time we succeeded in finding a
place to park between two pine groves. We left the cars there, and began to
trudge up the steep pathway by foot. It was very beautiful up there, and our
hearts were filled with happy anticipation.
As
we arrived near the top, we sat down on the grass and had some refreshments, in
expectation that the brothers from space would somehow make their presence
known to us. later, since nothing happened, I went off by myself and climbed a
little farther. In the meantime, I had noticed an irregular cloud formation in
the sky, and the sun was hidden behind the clouds. It was beginning to get
quite misty, as the temperature was rapidly falling. I was becoming concerned
over the brothers' silence; we had received no contact at all. So I hiked back
down to Tina and the others, below. There it was not so cold, but,
nevertheless, the air was not exactly warm, and the moisture was rather unpleasant.
Silently, I asked the brothers if they would not at least give some sign of
their presence, but the silence dragged on until five o'clock in the afternoon.
I could not understand what had happened, and began to have strong doubts about
whether I had understood their message correctly in the first place. I excused
myself to the others, and said I did not know what to make of it. The brothers
gave no indication that they knew of our anxiety. The fog was beginning to
close in on us, and I made the suggestion that we return to the autos and wait
for some sort of direction.
I
had made my recommendation when I heard telepathically the trustworthy voice of
Raphael saying something I had heard many times before: "O you of little
faith!" he said in a kindly manner, "How easily you become
faint-hearted. Have patience! In the meantime, we will send you a little
sunshine!"
A
moment later the fog began to lift and a pleasant sun warmed the air, so that
the temperature rose noticeably. I felt indeed like a man of weak faith, and
determined to drop my impatient frame of mind immediately.
We
all climbed higher on the trail until we reached the place where I had turned
around earlier. The sky had turned blue again, and the dark cloud formations
withdrew over the horizon. We had become quite jovial; Nico even felt like
laughing aloud for sheer joy, just to realize that a contact with the space
brothers had been made. We sat down on the grass, and I marveled at the
extraordinary beauty of the landscape, the pines and ferns, and the profusion
of shrubs and flowers. I took delight in the variety of color of the grasses,
which were no longer as tender as in springtime, yet still showed their young
freshness.
While
each in his own way was absorbed in contemplation of this festival of nature,
suddenly Gianna shouted, "Look—the sun!"
The
light all around us had grown noticeably dimmer. In front of the sun a large
globe or disc circled in undulating fashion, creating the impression that the
sun itself was beginning to rotate. At first, I was afraid, but then I watched
with calm fascination while the light rays seemed to dance and play over all
the surroundings.
"If
you had looked toward the sun earlier," said Raphael in cosmic contact,
"you could have seen us sooner. But now, we wish to bring you greetings of
God the Father, The Creator of the sun, which gives life to the Earth, in
accordance with His will."
In
utter amazement we watched the dramatic spectacle before us, comparing
observations excitedly from time to time. Nico had his sun glasses with him, so
we all tried using them to observe the rotating globe. In that way, one could
see more clearly how the object moved over the sun's disc with a circular
motion. It gave the impression of seeing the sun itself wobbling on its axis.
This
phenomenon continued for some time, and I sat down on the grass to rest. Tina
came over to me, and, in hushed voices, we talked together about this sign we
were seeing.
"The
word apocalypse," she said, "frightens me, in spite of the fact that
it was carefully explained to us that we have nothing to fear. The important
thing is, that people all over the world change their ways of thinking and
acting toward one another, if they are to be saved."
Hoping
to encourage her, I said, "If we fix our minds on the wonderful works of
creation, and on the power of love to serve and to save, we will best be able
to help others, and will also be helping ourselves."
Gianna
said she believed in the triumph of universal love, which is stronger than all
the power of evil in the world, Nico spoke of justice, and said it was hard for
him to see why anyone would think of it as punishment. Thus, each one expressed
his or her convictions.
The
sun-apparition was still there, and now we could see the rotating disc more
clearly. Somebody made the suggestion that we offer a prayer to the Father.
Gianna improvised one that came straight from the heart. She thanked Him for
His gift of life, for the Earth and the Sun, and the brothers from space, who
were so noble and so gracious.
Tina
beseeched Him to grant that man's understanding would be illumined with
universal love, and that people all over the Earth would turn away from evil
ways, in order that the new age of peace might begin.
Together,
we prayed the Lord's Prayer. We were all deeply moved, and each one felt in his
or her heart the power and the caress of the great, compassionate Father in
Heaven.
Suddenly
Nico cried out, "Look up by the sun!" The sun seemed to still be
turning, but now the disc had moved off to the side, just within a fiery circle
surrounding the sun. It was not as easy to look at as before, because of the
brightness of the sun. But we could see the sun and the discs as two separate
objects now, and gradually everything returned to normalcy again, including the
light over the surrounding landscape where we were.
"That
was a gift from God the Father to us!" Gianna exclaimed.
"These
signs in the heavens must surely cause the people of Earth to ponder," said
Tina. The others, however, could not grasp what was already abundantly clear to
us.
We
turned our steps back down toward the valley, since it was already evening, and
we thought we might otherwise have a problem finding our autos in the dark.
CHAPTER 12
On Board the
Starship
On
the evening of the twenty-seventh of July, 1980, there was another contact in
the mountains. We had climbed but a short while when the light from the flying
disc announced the presence of the brothers from space. Presently, Raphael came
toward us and led us to the craft, which was resting on the ground among
scattered trees. A brilliant white light from the open door illuminated the
surrounding landscape. Reading my thoughts, Raphael reassured me I need not
have any fears of deception, or of being disturbed. Seen from so close, the space
vehicle looked very powerful; its surface seemed to pulsate with a soft glow.
Tina was visibly moved. Raphael stepped into the ship and motioned with his
hand for us to follow. Tina went first, then I, and finally Paul, who had come
with us.
The
inside was simple, yet elegant. The central room was illuminated with light
that seemed to come from all directions, as no single light source was to be
seen. Under the large dome, four panels with built-in charts served as walls.
An unaccustomed empathy prevailed; we were all flooded with this same unearthly
light, and with an energy that was more spiritual than physical. Peace and a
sense of inner freedom was mixed with a sense of gratitude to these wonderful
beings, who had given us such an opportunity. It moved me with feelings that
cannot be described.
Tina
was engrossed in conversation with Orthon, while Firkon explained something to
Paul, who seemed filled with awe. I said to Raphael that I could find no way to
adequately express my joy in being here.
Raphael
smiled and looked at Paul, who was silent now, and showed by his expression
that this experience was, for him, too precious to be spoiled by words.
One
of the panels had many brightly colored lines on it, and it fairly sparkled
with its rapidly changing patterns of light. A brother, who was sitting
opposite it, stood up and came over to greet us. He was tall, and had
blue-green eyes; his chestnut-colored hair, which fell almost to his shoulders,
gleamed with copper colored highlights. I was impressed by his distinguished
and courtly manner. He excused himself, and returned to his post at the
illuminated panel.
The
door closed, and the floor beneath our feet trembled lightly with a barely
detectable vibration. "We are climbing," said Raphael. "Soon we
will be on board the starship."
In
the room under the large dome were three groups of chairs. Raphael invited us
to sit down, and he joined us. The other brothers spoke in muted voices with
the man who seemed to be the pilot.
"The
starship," Raphael told us, "is above the Earth's atmosphere. We will
be there momentarily".
Orthon
and Firkon came over and sat near us. Firkon said how happy they were to have
us on board the flying disc, and smiled good-naturedly over my fears of
something having gone wrong, while we were on the way to the place of contact.
"As you see," he said reassuringly, "we are all safe and
well." I laughed with him and said that I, too, felt well, better than I
imagined I would under the circumstances. Tina expressed her amazement at how
simple, quiet and functional all the arrangements within the disc seemed to be.
Paul managed to comment on how surprised he was to find himself actually
traveling in space. I thought about the brothers' loving kindness and obliging
generosity in granting us such a powerful transformative experience in this
simple way. I felt that the unfolding course of events in which we were
participating was the fruit of great wisdom and consummate insight into these
things. How much time elapsed, I could not say. All of a sudden, I was aware of
a slight jolt.
"We
are here," Raphael informed us. "Now we are entering the
mothership."
We
stood up and the little door opened. After stepping out, we went down a rather
low passageway. The walls seemed to be made of material compounded of metal and
glass. They possessed a soft, translucent quality that was very pleasing to the
eyes. At the end of the passageway was a door with no apparent latch, which
opened automatically at Raphael's approach.
We
stepped into a fairly large room. The walls were similar to the walls of the
passageway, but flooded with light, and the beautiful translucent quality was
even more pronounced. The whole room seemed alive with a subtle corruscation of
changing color, as if bathed in the light of innumerable tinted reflections
from some unseen source. It gave a pleasant tone of warmth and elegance to
everything the eye could see.
Tina
wanted to feel the fabric of one of the easy chairs that were set in
appropriate groups here and there about the room. Firkon smiled at her, sensing
the questions in her mind. This material, which resembled white gold, could
have been a kind of cloth, yet its strength and pliancy were such as to suggest
something totally unknown on Earth.
"We
have much to discuss," Raphael said. "The time is short." I
noted that, since we had been on board this spaceship, all sense of time had
left me.
Raphael
invited us to sit down. We three sat on a large comfortable sofa, before which
six armchairs were arranged in a semi-circle. On three of these sat Raphael,
Orthon, and Firkon. I looked up at the ceiling of this beautiful room and noted
that it was not as bright as the walls. Almost imperceptible changes in color
tone created an impression almost of something flowing. It was as if unseen hands
were playing with a fine sort of ribbon, and the effect on the observer was
very soothing and pleasant.
Kalna,
Ilmuth, and Zuhl came up to us, and we were inwardly full of joy. Under this
beautiful illumination, and in their splendid colored outfits, they seemed more
youthful than before. After greeting us warmly, they sat down in the remaining
chairs.
"We
have long awaited this moment," Raphael said, in a tone of evident
sincerity. His voice added to the sense of joy we already felt. Tina, Paul, and
I revealed our mood in our expressions, and so did they; their look was
penetrating, respectful, and full of love. I could not help but praise the
exceptional beauty of the flowers which were arranged in crystal vases on a low
table on our right. The colors were brilliant, and the forms varied from oval,
to round, to cup-like. I had never seen anything like them on Earth. They
spread a subtle aroma throughout the room, as pleasant as it was unobtrusive.
"Universal
love is the life of the whole creation. The secret of evil lies alone in the
loss of love. To love means to be in the light. Inner blindness, ignorance, and
depravity are all the consequences of a failure of love. The essence of the
Divine Being is love, and the whole creation derives from it."
With
these words, Raphael began to speak of things that riveted our attention
completely. "The bad," he proceeded to say, "consists of not
staying within the power of love. For those who are within the power of love,
it is not hard to walk on the unending path of understanding that leads to the
Creator, the deepest longing of every created being. For the individual who is
not within the power of love, and therefore is within the power of evil, true
understanding is difficult and even impossible. The more one abides in the
light of understanding, the easier is the inner actualization of love. The more
one persists in staying within the force of evil, and therefore far from the
light of understanding, the harder it is, ultimately impossible it is, to be
within the power of love.”
"Unfortunately,
on Earth there is little love and little understanding. That is the reason why
mankind must go through so much trouble and sorrow, and must realize the error
and delusion of the force of evil, before it succeeds in finding the true path
to the Creator, the source of all goodness."
Then
Raphael
spoke a great truth: "While you are in darkness," he said,
"you make everything complicated. Simplicity is one of the best paths to
the light. Therefore, it has been said to you, that in order to enter
into the Kingdom of Heaven, you must become as a little child. That
which is great and deep, is
always very simple."
Now
Orthon chose to speak, and said, "Many things will be shown you. We will
proceed simply and systematically, so that you will have a sound basis of
fundamental truths that will help you to become accustomed to higher realities.
After that, we will invite you to look over the starship with us, and to
celebrate together."
Firkon
begged us to prepare our hearts and minds to receive fully all that we would
see and hear aboard this starship.
"Look
in this direction," said Kalna, as she pointed to the wall on our left,
opposite the table with the flowers. "See what will be shown there."
We
turned, and all watched intently the place she had indicated. The room lights
gradually dimmed, creating a mood of intimacy. Tina's and Paul's eager
anticipation could be seen in their expressions. From a certain place in the
room came a sort of smoke, like steam building up to form a little gray cloud.
The cloud began to change its form until the outline of three persons came into
view. We watched with astonishment this unbelievable transformation, which
seemed to arise out of thin air. Gradually, we saw the outline assume the
appearance of a man, a woman, and a child. They were really there, before our
eyes, yet, at the same time, they seemed like figures in a movie, or in a
tableau. Next, the cloud fashioned an outdoor scene, including trees, grass,
flowers, and shrubs. The man sat on a large stone. The woman stood beside him,
dressed in typical country fashion. The child played on the ground nearby. It
was a country scene, perhaps a small family outing. The figures, which had been
in shades of gray up to this time, although clearly possessing depth, began now
to gradually take on color. At the same time, the whole scene became brighter
and more vivid, and we noted that, at the same time, the room was getting
darker. I was more and more fascinated with what I saw.
The
man stood up and spoke to the woman, who, we assumed, was his wife. The child
was busy playing with some toy, and paid little heed to his parents nearby. We
heard the harmonious voice of Ilmuth calling our attention to something.
"Now," she said, "we will show you something in this family
scene which we are very anxious that you should understand. Pay close
attention."
The
color of all the objects in the scene at first grew brighter, then gradually
diminished. The clothing of the three persons seemed to dissolve in a meld of
pastel shades, then rearrange themselves until we could see three well-dressed
persons, a man, woman and child who were the same, and yet not the same as
before. The flesh tones seemed now to have a shimmering light blue quality, as
if lit up by some inner radiant source. The bodies seemed somehow lighter than
the previous ones. It was as if two bodies were superimposed, one over the
other. We could clearly discern the separate bodies of each of the three
persons, yet they appeared as one. This remarkable illusion repeated itself,
and still other bodies came into view, exactly similar in outward appearance,
yet distinguishable through subtle changes in color and luminosity. I could
observe, in this remarkable stereoscopic display, that the deeper the layer
that was being revealed, the more luminous it was, yet the light from the inner
bodies did not prevent our seeing the outer bodies clearly. I counted seven in
all. The innermost one was pure white, and seemed to pulse with rhythmic
emanations. With each pulse, light streamed forth and flooded all the other
bodies, right up to the last, flesh-colored one on the surface.
"Look
closely!" exclaimed Ilmuth. "Observe also the plants and the
rocks." They were undergoing the same transformation as the persons. I had
never before seen such a display. Everything had such a life-like depth,
richness of color and symmetry of form, and such a rhythmic progression from
one light-manifestation to the next, that I was astounded. I could not possibly
have imagined such a thing.
"In
this way," explained Ilmuth, "you can visually comprehend the various
dimensions of the life-force in man, in the world of plants, and in the mineral
kingdom. These seven dimensions may also be subdivided into groups of three
similar states of being."
I
looked again and saw that the first three bodies, which were closer to the
surface, appeared particularly like one another with respect to density and
degree of luminosity. The next three were brighter, and seemed to be finer in
texture and detail the deeper they lay. The innermost one, pure white, was
especially bright, and from it rhythmic waves of living light bathed each of
the other bodies. It became clear to me that no method we have on Earth could
so effectively demonstrate all these living realities, and that this
unbelievable scene gave my mind insight into possibilities that would have
never revealed themselves under ordinary circumstances.
"The
outermost body," said Ilmuth, "is the material body. The others are
not of material energy, but of cosmic, or astral energy, as your teachers on
Earth call it. With each of these bodies man can live in different worlds and
dimensions, and on the higher developed planets. The outermost body dies, and
the next one beneath it is fully prepared to adapt itself to the energy field
of its new surroundings. That is what happens at the time of death, but, in
reality, it is only a birth with the new body in a higher dimension, in a
higher world of the same level of development as the newly won body. Since the
dimensions are very numerous, the number of possible bodies within man are not
just seven, but many more. We show you only seven in order to make it easier to
understand."
I
was completely absorbed in learning about these wonderful new realities. I
heard Tina's voice call out, "The beauty of the innermost glowing form is
too marvelous for words!"
"It
is that, especially, that we wanted to help you better understand," Kalna
responded, taking up the conversation at this point. "The pure, white
body, which sends forth waves of life-energy to the astral bodies, right up to
the material body, is the visible manifestation of what you call 'spirit'. In
the scriptures, you will find it said that man is a unity of body, soul, and
spirit. Thereby, it is understood that 'body' refers to the mortal body, 'soul'
to the astral body, and 'spirit' to that essential part of man which is
immortal and therefore never dies, as it is the seat of life and of
consciousness."
"The
spirit," Ilmuth interjected, "has the capability of living anywhere
in the whole universe, provided only that it may not go beyond the boundary
known as Heaven's gate when clothed in an astral body, and that it stay in a
cosmic world at an appropriate level of development."
Firkon
explained further: "The brothers from the 'essential' universe, such as
we, have already developed the spiritual body, and therefore normally live in
the wonderful worlds of light of the ultra-cosmic universe. The brothers from
these higher realms, often referred to in the Scriptures as 'angels', or 'the
Lord', can travel in cosmic dimensions, and can clothe themselves with cosmic
bodies when it is needed. On the other hand, the brothers who are not so far
developed that they can free themselves from cosmic love and cross the boundary
beyond which lies the eternal universe of light, have the possibility of making
journeys to worlds at stages of development beneath their own. This they can do
freely, motivated by their own understanding or their sense of obligation; a
task undertaken either on their own initiative, or as an assignment entrusted
to them to fulfill. In order to gain experience at a higher level, as you are
now, you must trust us, who have already gone beyond the heavenly boundary, and
therefore have the knowledge that allows us to bring you opportunities for
travel to worlds that are above your stage of development."
"Then,"
Paul broke in, "may we say that you might be called brothers of the whole
universe, and the others, who cannot yet free themselves from the cosmic body,
might be called brothers of the cosmos?"
"Exactly
right," answered Orthon. "Our knowledge is spiritual, and that
encompasses also cosmic knowledge. On the other hand, there are brothers who
have a great deal of cosmic knowledge, but are poor in spiritual understanding.
One must always use the cosmic powers within the framework of understanding of
the spiritual, or mystical powers, and that means to have trust in the Creator,
who works through His children of light. One who works only through the cosmic
powers has no guarantee that he does what is right, and will not result in
negative consequences. If, however, he works together with those who are in the
light, who are always under the guidance of the spiritual forces, and are
acquainted with the marvelous ways in which the Creator accomplishes His
purposes, in silence and in power, then he becomes an enabler in the universal
plan of love and salvation under God's providence. Such a person will not be in
danger of falling into error. No one can, of himself, have unlimited Knowledge
and wisdom."
Raphael
gently called our attention to what was now taking place in the animated
color-tableau, which at this moment portrayed the three figures in a garden.
The husband and wife had evidently had a falling out. The husband was gesticulating
wildly, giving unrestrained expression to his emotions. We could hear their
voices. He was hurling accusations at his wife, which, although I could not
understand them, seemed to have something to do with the child. The child
continued playing, and paid little heed to the heated argument going on between
his parents.
"Watch,
now," said Raphael, "and you will see the effect of anger on the
bodies and souls of these unfortunate people."
The
man's invectives grew stronger as he mercilessly blamed his wife for imagined
faults and shortcomings. He was infuriated, while she maintained a stunned
silence. As I was watching the figure of the man, the outlines of his body
became distorted, as if altered by some rough force. The harmony of the lines
was badly disturbed. The inner spiritual body lost its snow-white splendor. It
turned darker, emitting spasmodic showers of muddy fragments that penetrated
the other bodies, agitating them with abrupt changes of brightness, form and
texture.
The
husband was shouting now, while his poor wife was in tears. His spiritual body,
at first spotted and flecked, was now almost dark brown. His whole being was
saturated with this unsightly coloration, and his figure seemed to be shrunken
and deformed. She outer, material body, although the vessel containing all the
other bodies whose beauty and radiance had been so badly affected, suffered the
least damage of all. Now, waves of this dark disharmonious life-energy could be
seen emanating from the man, going out in ever-broadening circles ail around
him. They penetrated the woman who soon took on the same characteristics, her
life-force growing darker, and her spiritual, cosmic and astral bodies becoming
distorted.
"What
you are seeing," explained Raphael, "happens to every human being who
allows anger to enter into his consciousness. His life-energy becomes dim and
disfigured. This disorientation spills over from the spiritual body to all the
other bodies, right up to the material body, and all suffer thereby. The
life-energy of every single being is, through his environment, intimately bound
up with the life-energies of other beings of his kind, and therefore he will be
helped by the brothers, if he lives a good, well-disciplined life, but he does
harm to all other members of the human race, if he lives a bad life with no
sense of responsibility toward his fellow man. All creation is at every moment
in a lively reciprocal relationship with all other parts of creation. All
exists in reality, and the finer the reality is, the more it is imbued with
life. Thought, and its forms, and that which you call fantasy or imagination,
has a reality or expressive power greater than matter alone can possibly
possess. I would add that those persons still bound to materialistic thinking
would be astonished to learn how great an influence their thoughts, feelings,
and emotions have on the energy of the material elements of their environment.
But, since they view everything through the lens of materialism, they create
for themselves an illusion which makes matter appear to be very real and solid,
and every finer reality, inconsequential and empty.
Meanwhile,the
husband in the scene continued in his tirade, and the aforementioned energy
contagion of bad will now flooded over the child, although he continued to act
as though he paid no attention to the strife going on between his parents. The
surrounding plant world now gave evidence of coming under the influence of the
dark disorder of successive waves of negative energies, and this effect also
penetrated the rocks, the air, and the ground. Even we began to be affected by
this disagreeable onslaught against our original sense of well-being.
"How
frightful!" exclaimed Tina. "Absolutely terrible!"
The
scene underwent a change, and gradually returned to its original state. Now the
husband embraced his wife tenderly and dried her tears. The child went over to
his parents and laughed with joy. Not only the three human figures, but also
the plant and mineral world of their surroundings underwent a sort of transformation.
Waves of light and color bestowed new life and harmony on everything they
touched. We felt joy and happiness return to us, even as the fearfulness of the
recent experience began to subside.
The
scene dissolved bit by bit, and the cloud of vapor faded to gray, then
gradually disappeared altogether. The room light became as before. Raphael and
the others smiled at us like good friends who return again after a painful
separation. I thought for a moment about the trip from Earth to the starship where
I was now with Tina, Paul and the brothers, and my heart was full of joy.
Raphael
took up the conversation again: "If all children of God the Father used
the precious gift of freedom which He gave them to follow the infinite paths of
all-love, and had entrusted themselves solely to the beneficence of His
universal laws, then it would not be necessary to experience life in cosmic
dimensions that are so very restricted in comparison with the infinite universe
beyond the heavenly boundaries. As there was a rebellion long ago that
persuaded many souls that man could manage his affairs without God, or the help
of those who were obedient to God, the spirit of human pride arose, and the
propensity toward undisciplined, selfish action. Therefore, knowing that others
would emulate this bad behavior, the Father created dimensions with narrower
boundaries, namely the cosmic, astral and material worlds, which, while equally
wonderful, being the work of His hands and reflecting the beauty and harmony of
Heaven, nevertheless were restricted worlds. There, many of His children were
tempted to substitute egotism for all-embracing love, evil for good, cruelty
for kindness toward brothers and sisters. They learned to follow the way of
wrong action instead of right, of hatred instead of love, spiritual blindness
instead of true understanding, which would have led to abundant life.
Therefore, matter was created, so that the spirit and consciousness, which are
integrally joined with the material body, would have a wall of protection
around themselves. You have seen that the material body is the least sensitive,
and moderates and restrains disturbances in the finer bodies. If those children
had no material bodies, and also no astral bodies, then their souls, which
sometime want to test the ways of evil, would perceive the consequences in a
much more unprotected and painful manner.”
"It
is important that one become convinced of the futility and danger of evil
during this material life, for otherwise he will experience it in fuller measure,
more painfully, in the finer dimensions of higher reality. It is necessary that
man learn to understand the loving-kindness of the Father, who does not deny
freedom to those of His children who are not faithful, but has made it possible
for them to learn in an environment more protected from suffering. Suffering
is, in itself, a means of healing, anguish is the voice of the Father calling
His children home, suffering is purification and love. Until the last, lost
child of the Father has returned, there will always be suffering. You saw the
effect of remorse when this husband realized he had greatly wronged his wife
and done harm to the sensitive soul of his child. The pain that arose in his
consciousness was a living energy released from his spirit, that restored
harmony and order to his wife, his child, and to his own being."
"When
goodness and love again predominate among Earth children," said Kalna
tenderly, "then your spirits will release a wonderful life-energy which
will give light to your understanding and warmth to your hearts. Then will the
beneficent power which radiates from within you heal all the brokenness of your
spiritual, mental, and material condition. Even the animals will become more
tame, the plants more beneficial, the minerals more pure. You cannot imagine
how very dependent the whole living web of the environment is on your
consciousness. The sentient being truly determines the composition and quality
of the living environment of his own world. Everything is a living reality, every
emotion, all your wishes, thoughts or feelings, and, likewise, all of your
suffering. To neglect this is to prolong your journey back to the light by many
hundreds of years. Every child of the Father will come to realize, of his own
free will and through the power of his conviction, the truth of the good, and
the delusion of evil. We will always help you until the time comes when the
Father is again able to rejoice in your perfect love and trust, for He alone is
the Creator God, the highest source of all love.”
"Every
thought has its own form, its own color, its own sound, its unique aroma, and
its particular meaning. This is true for everything that lives within the human
spirit. The children of the Father can create either a paradise or a state of
unending hell. The Father will always strive to draw them again to Himself, and
we will be His true children and co-workers, until all become convinced of the
truth and the justice and the beauty of His ways."
Firkon
looked deeply into my eyes, and I could tell that he knew the question in my
mind. "Yes," he said, with a tone of finality. "Of course, all
this will come to an end. The children of the Father who persist in wrongdoing
win soon be compelled to see things in a new light. They will have caused so
much anguish on Earth that even the blind will see and the deaf will hear.
Mens' hearts will grow out of their thousands of years old state of
intransigence, and they will long for the light. Then the Father will enjoy a
feast, such as has never before been in all creation, because the lost son has
finally returned home to his Father's house."
"It
is written," Raphael added thoughtfully, "that only the sons of
perdition will be lost. This causes infinite grief for the Father, and is a
sorrow to us as well. These recalcitrant persons do not want to learn their
lesson, but they will no longer be able to harm others. For them, the whole
plan of love and salvation will have borne no fruit. None of us can put
ourselves in God's place. He will have provided for even such as these. But,
woe unto them, who turn away from the infinite mercy, compassion and justice of
the Father. These impenitent brothers ought never to forget that there is for
them at any moment grace, forgiveness, and love."
"All
that has happened on Earth in these thousands of years," Raphael said with
great sadness, "in the long history of blood, suffering and injustice in
the cosmos, will serve as a horrible example, in which error in all its many
forms is to be found. This condition has now come very close to the limits the
Father has established in His loving heart. He will no longer allow the
suffering of the innocent; the time of retribution has come and all will be
judged with His perfect justice."
Tina
was earnest and attentive. Paul looked at Raphael with friendly curiosity.
"Look,
now," said Ilmuth, "we have something else to show you." Again
the room light dimmed. The gray cloud appeared, quickly took on color, and
before us we saw the figure of a child who, in her material body, was severely
crippled. The finer bodies, however, radiated in lustrous splendor, creating an
impression so altogether charming and harmonious, that Tina uttered an ecstatic
cry of admiration. I reflected on the irony of this striking contradiction. The
inner beauty of the child was more overpowering than the outward impression of
her being sadly crippled.
"When
the consciousness of man in its function as energy, and life dispenser, becomes
disordered, and thus brings about these unhappy conditions on your
planet," said Ilmuth, "then we are often the ones who take possession
of these bodies. You are not aware of it, but almost always it is an angel who
comes down to dwell and suffer in a crippled body or a sick mind, to take on an
important and effective assignment, which works to the advantage of the Earth
brothers in their great need. "
She
was silent. I was shaken by what I had seen and heard. My love for these
brothers grew greater than before. The spiritual body of the poor child shone
forth with indescribable beauty. This wonderful light poured softly and
continuously through the other bodies and into the surrounding space.
"These
are the ones," she said, "who light up your world. When you on Earth
one day understand these things, there will no longer be those who accuse God
of creating hardships in order to torment people, but rather you will blame
your evil ways and hardened hearts, and give thanks to those who, though
blameless, wanted to bear your burdens, rather than theirs, in order to save
you. How, otherwise, would you make sense out of the blood of the martyrs, or
all the good works and love of past years? What would be the meaning of the
sacrifice of the One who died upon a cross, in order to lift up the whole truth
before your eyes, and to teach you the greatest lesson in universal love that
was ever given on Earth? The moment of truth draws nearer, and as soon as the
veil of unknowing, (which was necessary in order to ameliorate the pain), is
withdrawn, each person will know whether he was born on Earth to be saved, or
to save others, after he himself finds salvation. For even the angels, when
born on Earth as men or women, must first be saved, and then they will have the
power to save others, while they continue to carry out their difficult
mission.”
"Some
of us choose to bear suffering in a martyr's body, rather than allow you to
experience to the full the ravaging work of evil. It is written, you should not
judge. Judge not, but abide in love, for that is the only guarantee of victory
of good over evil. Put your trust in God and in His children who work for your
healing, in love. Be righteous and unassuming!"
Ilmuth
ceased speaking. The smoke cloud lost its color and quickly dissolved, taking
with it the winsome figure of the little handicapped child. The light returned
to the roan in the starship. I sought to fix in my mind clear recollections of
this fantastic experience.
Raphael
invited us to follow him. Orthon and Firkon came with us. Me visited various
sections of this giant, luxurious space liner. In one roon we enjoyed a
delectable drink together. Then Kalna sang for us, and we listened to music
that was so exquisitely beautiful that Tina was moved to
tears.
Our hearts were filled with joy and peace, and the certainty of the brothers'
unconditional love. Then they led us through the passageway into the flying
disc that was to bring us back to Earth. Again, it was Raphael, Orthon and
Firkon who accompanied us on the trip.
"The
time will come," said Ilmuth, while Kalna smiled at us, "when we will
no longer need to part. All the brothers of Earth who wish to, will be able to
fly with us in space. It will suffice for them to have the wish to do it, but,
above all, they must know that they are children of the Heavenly Father's love.
Together we will visit new worlds and explore distant regions of space. We will
continually undertake new missions of love and learning for other brothers, who
wish to progress rapidly to a higher stage of development. And then, we will
stand face to face with the Father, for we will move out beyond Heaven's gate.
Be assured of that," Kalna said with finality, "for it is the
truth." We all embraced in a final farewell.
We
took our places in the flying disc, whose atmosphere had to be adjusted to
prepare us for the return journey to Earth. Our hearts were still in space, on
the rayship, with all its magic charm of color, luminescence, and tranquility.
The disc brought us back to the place where we had been picked up just a few
hours before. It was approximately six o'clock in the morning.
CHAPTER 13
Sojourn in Space
Now
I will tell you about some other extraordinary experiences that Tina, Paul and
I had the privilege of sharing on another trip into space with the visitors
from the stars.
After
we encountered the round object at its landing place, in accordance with
telepathically received instructions, we boarded it and were lifted into space.
The flying disc rose in the limitless void. Millions upon millions of stars
came into view, and they seemed much brighter than they would have appeared
from Earth? they blazed up like so many colored flares in the distance.
My
excitement was such that I was touched with fear; I felt so infinitesimally
small in comparison with this magnificent spectacle. I thought about the
infinite greatness of the Father, the Creator of all these wanders, and prayed
that He might teach me to love Him in my brothers, and in all things that were
created by Him.
In
the certainty that He had heard me, I said to Him that it was my most ardent
wish to learn enough about universal laws and infinite love to travel anywhere
in the cosmos, to go beyond Heaven's gate, and marvel at the infinite beauty of
unbounded creation. I hesitated, because I was afraid my prayer was too
presumptious, for so insignificant a creature.
Raphael
smiled and his look was full of loving kindness. "No," he said,
"the righteous wish to dwell in the Fatherhouse of God is not
presumptious. The most ardent wish of the Father Himself is that all His
children, who are on the path through the cosmos, will return to Him."
The
cosmic space which I could see consisted not only of a powerful play of
pulsating lights, but was flooded with luminescent particles that streaked out
of the dark background of space, as if following a track determined by some
invisible force field.
Raphael
pointed out to us the mighty cigar-shaped spaceship that hovered there in space
before us, at a distance that was difficult to estimate. It was surrounded by a
white glow, which shifted occasionally to a delicate orange or blue chromaticity.
Light rays streaming from the round windows of the great cigar-shaped space
vessel added to the luminous effect.
The
ship was longer and more slender than the one that had landed on the ground at
Spotorno; it was a dramatic and awe-inspiring sight.
Raphael
announced that we were about to enter the ray-ship with the flying disc. A
moment later, we stepped out into an inner landing room where the disc had set
down. I saw a light coming from one wall. Through a door, we were led into a
reception room. There stood a table, some easy chairs, and a sofa. They all
seemed to be made of the same material, which was slightly translucent. Upon
being seated, I noted that the chairs were quite firm, yet pleasantly yielding.
The
light within this wonderful ray-ship produced an effect on us which I was
unable to explain. We felt freshened and renewed, and all our spiritual
energies rejoiced in an indescribable sense of peace. At the same time, we
found ourselves in a state of well-being which changed us and awakened all the
sleeping powers within us. We felt keenly receptive to all that might be
imparted to us by words and images. Our hearts burned with an all-inclusive
love, such as is rarely felt on Earth.
Ilmuth
came in, and with her a man, whose appearance evoked admiration immediately, by
reason of his beauty and congeniality. We sat in a half-circle on the sofa and
chairs.
The
man looked very kindly at us and started to speak: "Our mission to you,
which was initiated from above, is coming to an end. But here you have the
opportunity to learn and experience things that will help you to be prepared.
We must speak to you about a great many more things than we were able to before
this, in view of the short time at our disposal, and other problems that we had
to undertake to mitigate on your behalf. That should not trouble you, for we
will stand by you always, and give you the light and help that will be
absolutely essential to you."
At
this point Orthon came in, and with him, Zuhl. They sat down and remained
silent while the man continued his discourse.
"On
Earth," he said earnestly, "there are many serious and pressing
problems. The under-developed state of many parts of the world results in
starvation and death through undernourishment and disease, as a consequence of
poverty. That is a very heavy burden of guilt to be borne by those people who
have a thriving culture. On Earth there are so many resources and means of
alleviation, that everyone could be provided for, as needed, in an orderly
fashion. But egotism and inordinate desire for wealth and power are the reason
that the poor suffer terribly and are lost."
Tina
interrupted him and asked, "Why don't you intervene to save these people
from starvation? Why isn't it possible to arrange things so that those who have
the potential and the will to ameliorate these deplorable conditions might be
enabled, with your help, to do so?"
The
man wrinkled his noble brow and sighed. "That we cannot do," he said
emphatically, "and that grieves us sorely. If we were to inject ourselves
so openly into the affairs of your planet, we would create much more serious
and difficult problems. We have already told you that you are acquainted with
only a part of the problem; actually, we have had to take action in order to
bring about a more just distribution of blessings, and we have also had to
intervene, to a degree, in your warlike confrontations. Everything would be
different: we would be drawn into the tangled web of hatred and power-seeking
that prevails on Earth, and we, too, would be acting out of a position of
superior power and might. In contrast to that, the universal laws are in a
position of being able to ultimately root out, once and for all, by way of
divine patience, the evil that is within man. Those who suffer unjustly will be
rewarded in measure far beyond your ability to comprehend.”
"Therefore,
the One who came to Earth and gave His life for His brothers said, 'Blessed are
the poor, for theirs is God's Kingdom! Blessed are those who now hunger, for
they shall be filled! Blessed are you who now weep, for you shall rejoice!'.
And He also said, 'Rejoice on that day and be glad, for great is your reward in
Heaven!'”
"There
are so many, and such good reasons, why we work on the spiritual root-cause of
your condition; we work in the innermost hearts of those who suffer, and are
the angels of comfort to those who bear heavy burdens. The Father has given us
this assignment for the Earth, for this planet which we watch over and love,
and which, in spite of all appearances, we are leading to the great healing, in
order that all may find the One who longs to bring them to the heavenly
dwelling that is their birthright. Did He not say to you before He died, 'You
are from below, I am from above; you are of this world, I am not of this world?'
Before He parted, He said, 'If I go, and prepare a place for you, I will come
again and take you with me, so that where I am, there you may be also.'”
"He,
whose wisdom was far greater than ours, and whose love more than contained all
that we are capable of, could forsee all things, and understand all things. He
taught us that patience is one of the great paths to everlasting life.”
"The
evil which has taken possession of so many rebellious brothers is so tough, it
will only meet resistance with counter-resistance? the patience and suffering
of good people stand in contrast to this. They will gain the victory over
error. To meet violence with violence, force with force, and evil with evil,
would not root out the latter, but would only create favorable conditions for
the triumph of evil itself, as has happened time and again over the past
thousands of years on Earth. Our understanding allows us to avoid such errors.
Thus the scriptures refer to the patience of the righteous and of the
saints."
He
was silent and it seemed as though he was well aware of how much trouble and
sorrow there was on Earth. His countenance brightened to a smile that indicated
hope, and he went on; "We have said to you that this is really the end of
evil on Earth. Already the seventh trumpet stands ready to announce the tidings
of release. The seventh seal is already broken, through the action of the One
who never lies. The cup of Godly anger is filled for those who, for a long
time, have taken perverted delight in the suffering of others."
These
last words were spoken in a strong voice, and I was troubled and astonished to
hear them. Paul, who always had so little to say, looked at him and asked,
"How is it possible to reconcile the love of the Father and the universal
brotherhood with the Godly anger, that you have just spoken of?"
The
man sighed. "When a father has good children and obstinate children,"
he said in a low voice, "he first gives a warning to the unruly ones.
When, however, they continue to ignore the fatherly advice, and stubbornly act
so as to endanger both themselves and their brothers, then the father's warning
becomes stronger. But the father's severity is not ill-intentioned. He is a
good father, and his only concern is for his sons to use good judgement, for
their own sakes. If, however, the sons persist in insane acts which threaten
their own existence, the father will have no recourse but to use all his might
to avoid such a disaster. And when an incorrigible son turns against him in
contempt, and inflicts unending sorrows on his brothers as a result of a
self-seeking desire to dominate others by might, and to impose his own will at
all costs, then will the father, spurned and betrayed, find that his heart
burns with anger. A strong punishment will then be the last possible means to
prevent the total corruption of the recalcitrant one, who otherwise would
subvert the good and peaceable sons. The people of Earth should come to realize
that the Godly anger, which the scriptures often refer to, is not just a poetic
figure of speech, but the greatest sign of the Father God's love for His
wayward children.”
"We
worship God for His loving-kindness, His mercy, and His justice, which are
infinite. But we also worship Him for His Godly anger over the children of
Earth, who have brought about the conditions for the destruction of their own
consciousness, and the material life of the planet." He drew his hand
across his forehead, then drank a small amount from a cup.
At
this point, Raphael took over the discourse, and said, in his pleasing and
earnest manner, "Yes, the people of Earth are arming themselves for the
destruction of the planet. They have amassed an enormous quantity of deadly
weapons, and seek to justify this by maintaining that if they did not do it,
the others would. That is as if we were to arm ourselves to the teeth in order
to destroy the people of Earth, and God the Father were to say, if we were not
to do it, then the people of Earth would. That is an insane philosophy, which
has been used on Earth through the ages to justify evil in all its forms.
However, that will in no way absolve man of the crime of preparing for the
destruction of one of the most beautiful dwelling places in the universal
Father's kingdom!"
Raphael
was evidently very much concerned, and his manifest anguish reflected the depth
of his love for our Earth and its inhabitants. After a short pause, he
continued, "We repeat what has already been written, that God will arm His
creation! Then all will come to know how right the Scriptures are, for the
words which the Father has revealed to us, and which we, since the earliest
days, have transmitted to you, are true. All things which the great masters,
and foremost Christ, the universal sovereign Lord, have said, will be
fulfilled, as has been the case up to this very moment."
He
held up his finger, and I noted with what rapt attention all the brothers who
were present listened to his words. "He told you that you would hear of
rumors of wars and great devastation. He said that this would not yet be the
end, but that, shortly before the end, such things would occur. Do you not have
the impression that the Earth is all ready to ignite itself, like a field with
many small fires before the mighty conflagration? Is it that you do not allow
yourselves to grasp the daily possibility of self-destruction of the planet as
the impending fulfillment of prophesy? Jesus said to you, that you could indeed
discern the signs of the weather, but not the signs of the times, and therefore
you were hypocrites. Do you not, then, find it impossible to deny these obvious
truths?"
Now
Firkon joined in, and he begged us to think over carefully what John had
delivered to us concerning the words of the Lord Jesus Christ. "You can
read the words of the Master," he began, "in the gospel of John:
'There are many things I have yet to tell you, but you could not understand
them yet. But when the Spirit of Truth has come, He will guide you into what is
yet to be, for He shall not speak of Himself, but what He has heard, that will
He speak of. '”
"Today
it is given to the people of Earth to understand many things that were
predicted? they want to hear them. That will make it possible for you to look
forward to the great disasters which threaten the planet, and not to fear the
powers of evil, which will be unleashed in the days ahead. The more the powers
of evil oppress the children of the Father, the more the Father will answer the
needs of His own with help, light and strength, in order that they may come
through victoriously, according to the laws of love."
Kalna
invited us to stand. The serious words of prophesy that we had been hearing did
not deny us a sense of deep peace and even joy, to be here on this wonderful
starship. We were aware that the ship was not standing still in space, but was
moving at a rate that would have seemed an impossible speed to Earth people.
This knowledge only served to increase our sense of well-being. How well the
brothers treated us! Our hearts were at peace, and our minds were being
constantly opened up to new truths and ways of understanding.
After
those last words about the promised assistance to the people of Earth at the
time of the great happenings which the planet would soon face, we were led into
another room, where several of the brothers were gathered. We all sat on
comfortable cushions, on a little raised platform made of wood. Kalna and
Firkon remained with us; Raphael and the others said they would rejoin us a
little later. I examined the cushions with great curiosity, and together, Tina,
Paul and I discussed the color and the material of the covering, which appeared
to have no seams or fasteners.
Kalna
said, "Soon the Earth people will enter upon very sad times, the
consequence of their errors of many centuries. But God, in His great love,
which constantly unites Him with His children, has prepared His plan of
salvation. The Scriptures have taught you all that you need to know in order
that these days will not 'come without warning, nor find you unprepared, but
rather that you may abide in the true light and receive divine solace. That
which Jesus could not make clear to the people of His times, because they were
not prepared, and were as yet incapable of understanding it, (the times being
not yet ripe), will become known to you in the coming years, and you will learn
of it in fullest measure. This knowledge will be indispensable to you in
helping you to confront these experiences."
Just
then, Raphael and Orthon came in, and at the same time, four other men and
three women. After greetings were exchanged, they sat down near us. Raphael
requested our attention, while several presentations were shown to us. Kalna
began to speak: "Now you will see some scenes," she said,
"concerning that event which you call 'death', and we call
'transition.'"
Again,
as before, we saw a little colored cloud grow larger and form itself into
figures. The scene showed a sick man lying in bed, evidently close to dying. He
breathed with labored gasps, and there were some people, whom I took to be
family members, standing near the head of the bed.
"This
is a scene on Earth," said Kalna. "It is going on right at this
moment somewhere on your planet. We can, if we choose, show you scenes from the
past, from the present, and sometimes even from the future. Watch, and see what
happens now!"
I
watched with great curiosity, and suddenly it seemed to me that the one man
became two. A figure exactly like the man, but very light, rose up horizontally
from the bed, and after turning in the air, slowly lowered itself until its
feet were touching the floor. At the same time, the man in the bed stopped his
heavy breathing and lay very still, while the members of the family began to
weep and wail. The body of the man on the bed lay lifeless, motionless, eyes
closed, while the duplicate figure looked at the body on the bed and the crying
relatives with an expression of surprise. He tried to comfort the people, and
make them realize that he was not really and finally 'dead'; but they paid no
attention to him and continued their lamentations by the body on the bed.
Kalna
now explained the scene to us as follows: "This man, this Earth brother,
has now come to the end of his earthly existence. Now he is living in a new
body, in a new, higher frequency of life-vibration. He is astonished to see his
coarse-material body lying lifeless on the bed, and it took him several minutes
to realize the true state of affairs. He wanted to be in union with his
relatives, who were bemoaning his physical death, but did not yet realize that
he was now living in another dimension, different from the material one. This
brother is now learning two new realities through direct experience. First, he
has made the wonderful discovery that there is life after death, without the
physical suffering that had so plagued him at the end. Second, that he can not
make himself understood to his loved ones, who are still in the material life.
He realizes that, although he can still see and hear them, it is no longer
possible for them to ascertain his living presence directly."
Kalna
interrupted her talk long enough for us to see how useless were his efforts to
get those people to realize that he was still alive, and that bodily death did
not extinguish life.
"Now
you will see another scene," Kalna announced, "the first meeting with
the brothers of other dimensions, brought there from other worlds, to receive
this brother who has just made the transition from the dimension of gross
materiality to a different form of life. We have already told you that,
throughout creation, no one is left all alone in his time of need."
We
saw men and women arrive at that place, as though they had come through the
walls. Their ages seemed to be between fifteen and forty years old. The
youngest, who still seemed like a boy, walked up to the man, who at this point
looked to be perhaps forty, (although his body on the bed looked significantly
older), and embraced him. He called him 'Papa', and the man threw his arms
around his neck with the words, "My child! How happy I am to see you
again! I have missed you so very much! But how is it that you are here?" The
boy didn't answer directly, but said that things were going well with him, and
that he had been waiting for him for a long time. There were embraces and
moving words exchanged between the man and all who had come to receive him.
The
man looked again at his lifeless body in the bed, and wanted to speak with the
mourning relatives, but the others explained to him that this was not possible,
and they added that they would later show him how one could keep in touch with
those who remained on Earth, through thoughts and love.
I
was surprised, and I could hear Tina say repeatedly, "That is
unbelievable, but wonderful."
Paul
spoke briefly about how greatly this demonstration of the truth of ongoing life
had impressed him. "Especially when you consider," he added,
"the horror with which most men view death, and the years that they spend,
mourning the death of loved ones."
During
the showing, I asked Kalna why such a great truth could not somehow be brought
out to the people as common knowledge.
"There
are reasons," she answered, "why Earth people can not know all about
the true state of affairs. Through sorrowing and seeking, which are necessities
born out of their impoverished spiritual condition, they attain an inner worth,
and are enabled to raise their consciousness to a level from which they can
appreciate these living realities."
Meanwhile,
the brothers who had come to receive the departed man took him to a new place
that was quite different from the room where all this had been taking place up
to now.
"You
see now the astral reality," Kalna explained, "that is, the living
reality corresponding to the energy field of higher vibrations in this place
where they are in a finer degree of manifestation."
They
didn't walk very much, and, in fact, it seemed to me that they moved forward
while scarcely touching their feet to the ground. The man took a few steps at
first, but after observing the others for a moment, he too was able to go
forward without moving his legs, just gliding easily over the ground. The group
came to a small reconnaissance disc whose door stood open.
"We
are going inside now," the boy said to his father. "Then we will go
to the place where we live." They entered, and the disc rose from the
ground and disappeared into the wide expanse above.
The
scene ended, and light came on in the room again, bathing the beautiful
wood-grained surfaces with warm tints of color. Firkon again took up the
discourse: "We bring to you the relatives, friends, and acquaintances who
are waiting for you on the higher worlds. If some of them already are living on
planets beyond the heavenly boundary, they are in a position to will themselves
to come here from the higher universe. However, if they find themselves on
planets that are not yet very highly developed, then they need our help and our
spacecraft in order to travel through space. At the time of physical death, a
person is brought to another world. The removal from Earth, without the dense,
mortal body, may be accomplished either by means of a flying disc and starship,
or by the use of cosmic or mystical (supernatural) power, depending on how
highly developed the consciousness of the individual may be. In the latter
case, he may be brought to his destination in the universe by the application
of the law of duplication. To do this, the new astral, or spiritual body is
enveloped in a protective life-force shell, which very quickly brings the
brother to the desired place. This means of transport can also be easily used
by us, if we wish. Many strange apparitions actually occur in this way, if the
visitor from other worlds too often uses this means of making contact with
persons of Earth. Normally, however, when more than two persons are
transported, the best way is to use the spacecraft. This affords greater safety
and assurance of preservation of the life-energy in accordance with the cosmic
laws.”
"On
occasion," Raphael explained, "we can lift an Earth-dweller from the
face of the planet without the flying disc having to land, and without his
having to enter through the door of the craft. From the flying disc an energy
field is sent out, which lifts him up and inside of the craft by momentarily
raising the vibrations of his life-force. The energy we send him envelops him,
protects him, and frees him from the physical laws of gravity of the planet.”
Raphael
interrupted his talk. The melodious sound of beautiful music filled the room of
the starship. Tina began conversing with Kalna, and Paul with Orthon. Firkon
told us we would now have a short intermission. He informed me that the
starship was not far from the place we were going. I asked him several
questions, some pertaining to my private life as an Earth person. He answered
them all with such patience and loving kindness that I was moved to ask,
"Why is it that you show us so much love?"
Firkon
held his hands up to heaven and answered, "God loves us, and we love
you."
We
continued in conversation until Raphael again requested our attention, saying:
"The scriptures tell you that when the time of tribulation cones, all the
people of the Earth will see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great
power and glory. 'He will,' the Bible says literally, 'send His angels with a
great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together His elect from the
four winds, from one end of Heaven to the other.' It says further, 'It will be
as in the days of Noah. In truth, as in the days before the flood, they were
eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until Noah entered the
ark, and knew they nothing until the flood came and took them all away; so
shall it also be with the coming of the Son of man.' We have," continued
Raphael, " already reminded you of the words of the Evangel: "Then
shall two men be in the field; the one shall be taken and the other left
behind. Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and
the other left behind.' Now you know what it means, to be taken from the Earth,
or lifted up, or evacuated. You have seen, and we have explained in what manner
this may be accomplished."
I
recalled the scene they had shown, and Kalna's words of explanation, and
finally, Raphael's further elucidation.
“Picture
in your mind," Raphael began again, "the situation on your planet
right after an atomic war, as we showed it to you once in cosmic contact. In
such a case, we would immediately evacuate the Earth brothers from the surface
of the Earth, but we could not do this for the enemies of love, even if we
wanted to. The life-energy of their bodies, as a result of their state of
consciousness and the disordered and impure condition of their finer bodies,
would not allow us to evacuate them from the Earth. And even if it were
possible for us to do so, it would be a greater evil than for them to be left
behind on Earth. For this reason, Jesus spoke to you about the fires of
Gehenna, and of a hell, which perpetrators of evil, death, and all wicked
thoughts and deeds will experience unless they are purified through deep-felt,
honest repentance. This works to cleanse and restore balance, and so creates
the conditions of life-energy for a reconstruction of the life-expression at an
appropriate level. These brothers would see us as something terrifying or
monstrous, for their consciousness is sadly deformed, and, in addition to that,
they would suffer harm from the energies of our flying discs and starships, as
their mode of life would seem to be so completely turned upside down, it would
not be able to accommodate the harmonious and unchangeable order which is the
rule with us. The inner torment of one who is so out of harmony with the
universal laws of the Father, is in itself a means of salvation and a reminder,
in spite of all impenitence, that true freedom is found in goodness and in love
for the Creator and the brothers.”
"In
any case, even if, through the Creator's forbearance and our intervention,
Earth humanity were to escape the tragic moment foretold in the Scriptures, the
Lord would still come, and we with Him, to prepare for the final victory over
evil in the world, and the evacuation from the Earth for all who can be saved
will follow, before the end comes."
Raphael
having apparently ended his discourse, I ventured to ask a question: "You
have told us that the fulfillment of the third prophesy of Fatima pertains to the
time just before the beginning of the thousand year reign of the Kingdom on
Earth. Is it absolutely unavoidable, that there should be a third world war, an
atomic war, to destroy the powers of evil and to bring in a New Age of lasting
peace?"
Orthon
sighed. He folded his hands and seemed to be searching his innermost thoughts.
"The mother of Jesus," he said, "is, next to the Lord, the
wisest and most worthy of the heavenly beings. Her love for the Father, for
Jesus, and for us all, is immeasurable. She has greater understanding than any
other child of the Father. To us, she is our great sister, but, more than that,
she is our great Mother: the 'Mother of the omniverse'."
This
wonderful, royal woman of the universe remains in indissoluble union with my soul,
and enkindles my heart with pure, unending joy. Tina often speaks of her, and
constantly affirms that she loves her more than she can say. We always feel her
presence with us.
Raphael
took up the thread where Orthon had left off: "She appears on Earth far
more often than most people are aware. Several times she has certified her
presence with signs that arouse awe and wonder, such as at Fatima, where,
through the sun-marvel, she announced and verified that you stood at the
beginning of the apocalyptic times, foretold by John. Two parts of the message
revealed at that time have already been fulfilled. The ‘blaze of light from the
north in the skies of Earth', heralding the second world war, that apocalyptic
moment of unleashing of destructive power, has come just as she foretold. Now
we are nearing the time for the truth of the third prediction, (which has not
been officially revealed so far), to be fulfilled. We are striving to ensure
that the people of Earth might be spared a gigantic tragedy.”
"On
Earth today, there loom up ever more storm centers of hatred and warfare
between brothers. Finally the fire will burn at full blaze, and the folly of
the perpetrators of hatred and death will be fully exposed in the
holocaust-sacrifice which follows. We implore the Father that you may be
delivered from so great a calamity.”
"We
pray the Master and the universal Mother that everything possible will be done
to ameliorate such unthinkable suffering. We know that it must needs come, but
we continue to pray and to work without ceasing, in order that love will then
quickly gain the upper hand, and the new day that has been so long foreseen,
will dawn upon the Earth. The danger from the pollution of water, atmosphere,
and all the elements of your planet, is growing day by day. Earth dwellers have
set out on wrong paths, often with short-sighted material gain in mind, to the
detriment of their health and life-energy. Rampant error amd spiritual
disharmony have produced a natural deterioration and material disharmony.”
"It
was not forbidden to make progress; this was, in fact, in accord with the will
of the Father, who gave such great gifts to His children; but the Earth
children have plundered the resources of their planet, this dwelling place that
was made through His love. Now it is exacting a penalty from them. But most of
all, they penalize themselves for their own errors. Soon the words of the
apocalypse will come to be realized: 'And I saw an angel come down from Heaven,
having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. And he laid
hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the devil, and bound him for a
thousand years. He cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a
seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, until the thousand
years should be fulfilled.'"
"It
is also written," said Kalna, "that this was to be the first
resurrection. Truly, those who are lifted from the Earth will experience this
in their material bodies, which will have undergone a process of dematerialization,
and will be like ours, with the capability of rematerializing when it is
needed. The Scriptures say further :'Blessed and holy are those that take part
in the first resurrection. Over such, the second death hath no power. They
shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with Him for a thousand
years.' Therefore," explained Kalna, "whoever is transported from the
Earth will be one of our own, somewhat as Elijah was, who was taken away in one
of our starships, and ten years later could return to bring a message to the
Earth-dwellers of that time. Those who will rule with Christ for a thousand
years, will be able to live on Earth, and He will be in the midst of them, and
we will also be there. And they will be able to ascend with Him, and with us,
into the higher worlds of the limitless universe. The Earth will once more take
its rightful place in the brotherhood of universal love, and will again, as
already told to you, become a true Garden of Eden. We will no longer have to
turn you away from entering Eden, that unspoiled region which has remained true
to the Father and His universal laws. We, the cherubim with the drawn, flaming
sword , will be among you, and you will be with us. Also, you will undertake
missions on behalf of Him who has power in Heaven and on Earth, in accord with
the Father's will, and His loving kindness will be the foundation of His
sovereign government. Truly, the resurrected shall be priests of God and
Christ,—a priesthood that proceeds directly from Him, according to the promise
made by one of our ambassadors to Earth, the great priest-king Melchisedec. And
then you will know no other death. In any event, the word which was delivered
to you, in accordance with the truth, will be fulfilled."
We
were invited to rest on comfortable beds in small rooms with low level
illumination. Tina, Paul and I each went to our rooms. We were not tired, but
we understood that this rest would give us new energy, and would refresh our
spirits for the things that were ahead of us. Kalna and Raphael accompanied us.
The others took their leave in friendly fashion and wished us a comfortable
period of relaxation. My heart was full of gratitude to these brothers, and a
deep sense of joy welled up within me. I felt protected and inwardly reflected
on the many new insights that had been granted us. I soon lapsed into deep and
refreshing slumber, as did the others, each in their own rooms.
CHAPTER 14
Prayer and
Messages
We
were awakened by the sound of beautiful music and a gradual increase of the
illumination in the room. Raphael and Kalna came to get us, and to accompany us
to a room where we were entertained. Several young men and women danced with
exquisite grace. Others sang to instrumental accompaniment. The brothers who
played were excellent musicians, and revealed great sensitivity and musical
feeling. Some of the instruments were completely unfamiliar to us, having no
similarity to our instruments at all. Others could be described as similar to
the violin, harp, trumpet or oboe; one was like a cross between one of our
early keyboard instruments and an organ. The tones were pleasingly mellow,
expressing through simply structured harmony a mood that was uplifting and
inspirational in the extreme. Several pieces, although far removed from
similarity to Earthly music, recalled to mind certain arias by Bach.
The
brothers came and went quite informally. There were men and women of
indeterminate age; I would have guessed they might be between fifteen and
thirty-five. Their expressions were gentle and good-natured, in spite of
differences in personality and outward appearance. Some seemed to be
temperamentally inclined toward reflection; others were more active and lively
by nature. There were different facial types and characteristics which we on
Earth would attribute to different racial origins, or regional heritage. All of
them greeted us heartily. Many stayed for a while in conversation, to show
their friendly inclination toward us, or to hear some news. All were well
informed on who we were, where we were from, and on the course of the mission
that Raphal and the others were carrying out with us.
There
was some more choral singing, which we found completely charming. And, again,
there was dancing by men and women who moved with such ease and grace as to
fill us with admiration.
At
a particular moment, all became quiet. One of the brothers, who seemed to be
very well loved and honored for his high standing and knowledge, said in a loud
voice: "May the Heavenly Father bless our brothers from Earth, and the
brothers from planets in all the creation. May His love touch the hearts of all
those on Earth who do not know Him. May the infinite light of His being make
itself known to those who can not see Him. May God protect and reward all those
who work in His just cause. May He draw every lost son to Him by the power of
His loving-kindness."
After
these words, the whole company of people said a prayer together in hushed and
fervent tones: " Most beloved and praiseworthy Father, You who are
above all creation! How sweet it is to call upon Your name. Your love
penetrates every chasm and enraptures our hearts. We pray now for all the
brothers of Earth. Give them Your light and Your fire. Forgive them all their
offenses. Help them to forgive their brothers, who cannot love. Take away all
the sins of the whole cosmos and of the Earth-world. May all your children know
You, O Father, and love You everlastingly. Hear us, O Father, and give us joy
and peace in that knowledge. Amen."
A
feeling of blessed peace came over us with these words of prayer from the
brothers. Tina's eyes were filled with tears. Paul was deep in thought, and
remained silent. I looked at Raphael, who said: "God the Father, He who is
good and gracious, great and almighty, allows us to be aware of His Godly
presence and His loving smile of approval."
There
followed a period in which each person in the group spoke silently in his or
her own heart to the Father. I felt His presence more clearly than if He had
taken on form and become a visible being. I loved Him for myself, and for all
His children on Earth. I loved Him because He, alone, is worthy of all love.
A
wall at the side of the room began to slide open, revealing an adjacent room in
the starship. Now there was a single larger room, to which still more men and
women came. All sat down. Raphael arose and began speaking as follows:
"The whole federation of brothers, who live in the consciousness of the
Father's universal love, have accompanied the brothers of Earth since the
earliest times, over a long and difficult path. But, at this particular time,
the planet is coming into the fulfillment of events of greater import, foreseen
since the beginning by God the Father, and concerning which we were appraised a
very long time ago,— those things which we inspired the prophets to write down,
while they were living on Earth, fulfilling their chosen missions of
leadership.”
"We
have always shown ourselves to the people of Earth, and made contact with them,
to let them know of our presence. Since the second world war raged across the
continents of Earth, we have devised ever more effective methods of influencing
your people. Since the end of the war, which caused so much misery and sorrow,
we have seen to it that a steadily increasing number of brothers have become
involved in contacts of the visible and tangible kind. This will increase, in
spite of the hindrances and prejudices which stand in the way of carrying on
our work. Our star-ships are quite visible, and our flying discs go through
motions and send out colored lights in a manner utterly impossible for any of
your craft,—on land or sea, or in the air. Anyone who sees us hovering
motionlessly in the sky, cannot doubt that we are there. And those who witness
our zig-zag flight across the heavens, or observe the awe-inspiring fireballs
we send out, and other inexplicable aerial phenomena that defy the laws of
science as you know them, have no other choice but to finally acknowledge our
presence in your skies."
Raphael
looked at Tina, Paul, and me as one who knows he has attentive listeners. Then
he went on, "We carry on contacts with Earth brothers in other productive
ways as well. We speak to their spirits, their hearts and understanding, also
to their imaginations, not forcefully, but in a way so as . to share our
thoughts and feelings, and to give them light and understanding. We do this in
gentle ways, so that they are free either to accept these truths or dismiss
them from their minds and go their own way. These are the times for which the
words of Joel were written: 'Your sons and daughters shall prophesy, your old
men shall dream dreams, and your young men shall see visions'. For the children
of Earth, now is the time that the words of the prophet are fulfilled: 'I
will,' said the Lord, 'show wonders in the Heavens and in the Earth, blood,
fire and pillars of smoke.'"
Raphael
invited the whole company of brothers to apply themselves toward the
deliverance of the people of Earth, in the name of God the Father. All listened
closely to his every word.
"We
are very disturbed," he said solemnly, "over the things which are
soon to come upon the Earth." Then he added, in an attitude of devotion,
"But we put our trust in the infinite compassion and loving-kindness of
God, of Christ the Lord, who died on this planet out of love for the brothers,
and of His blessed Mother, who intercedes constantly for us through the heart
of Her Son, and that of the Heavenly Father."
He
had hardly finished these words, when the lights began to dim. I noticed that
Raphael joined the group who were seated. Now we were shown a scene which was
so dreadful that I would rather not describe it. A man's voice spoke the words
of the prophet Joel: "The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon
into blood, before the great and terrible day of the Lord has come."
Then
a woman's voice spoke the following words of hope: "Whoever shall call on
the Name of the Lord shall be delivered; for in Mount Zion and in the spiritual
Jerusalem shall be deliverance of the remnant, as the Lord hath said, and of
those whom the Lord hath called."
We
saw innumerable men, women, and children, who had been evacuated from Earth and
brought up to one of the starships, which were assembled in large numbers over
the devastated planet. It was as if everyone who was rescued carried a sign of
recognition on them, for they seemed to radiate with the same white glow as the
starships.
The
light came on again, and Raphael stood up. "The Scriptures," he said,
"call God the Lord of Hosts. As Jesus, the Son of the Living God, was born
in the stable of Bethlehem,—that symbol of the infinite humility of this great
brother,—it was the hosts' of the Lord who sang, proclaiming the good news of
His reign of peace to men on Earth. Now we stand at the beginning of the final
battle against evil, and of suffering, which has all too long afflicted the
children and grieved the Father. Very soon the trumpets of the victory of the
good, of justice, and of all-embracing love will be sounded. On Earth, there
will be a sunrise such as has never before been seen, not once since the time
of the first Eden. The remnant will, so it is prophesied, work together in
steadfast allegiance with the One who rules in righteousness because He is
good, just and true, as it is written."
Raphael
sat down, and after a short pause, continued, "We will first evacuate the
brothers who have always sought after goodness and justice; after that, the
repentant, and finally, those who came to acknowledge and worship God the
Father only at the last minute. There will be deliverance for all, except for
those who have become enslaved by their own hardness of heart. He who has ears
to hear, let him hear!"
He
was
silent, then spoke in a more gentle manner: "We invite all brothers of
the Earth to open their hearts to the good, and we pray that they turn
to God
the Father and to us, who are His agents on Earth. All your longings
will
always be answered, as has been the case through all time. We are in a
position
to know your thoughts and the needs of your hearts. And this is
infinitely more
true of God the Father. We beseech and implore you, good and righteous
people
of the Earth, to root out, once and for all, this brother-murdering
pride that
so poisons the spirit of mankind today. Not one syllable of your prayer
will be
lost, not one sigh of your soul for truth and justice will be in vain.
Beseech
and implore, and every day be meek and pure in heart. Your heart should
not
become discouraged because of human failure. At any moment there is
forgiveness
and compassion. To the degree that you are humble and penitent, every
sin is a
means for knowing greater love and grace. The Father has placed us by
your
side, and has sent you One whose knowledge, understanding and love far
exceeds
anything you can imagine. A Master has been given to you, whose wisdom
and
compassion are without bounds. With Him is also His blessed Mother, the
Queen
of the universe. She who at Fatima, that tiny, out of the way
Earth-village,
gave to simple country children the news of the impending apocalyptic
time now
coating upon Earth as a consequence of man's monstrous folly. She
intercedes
for, and works every minute on behalf of, the children of Earth, but the
burden
that she carries grows ever heavier, and the responsibility, almost
unbearable.
There are universal laws of justice which the Father has provided in
order to
safeguard the love between His children, and between Himself and them.
It
grieves us to have to say to the brothers of this planet that we have
long
since gone beyond the allowable limits, in this regard. In place of the
rivalries of the past, may there now be a kind of competition of
kindness, of
piety, and of modesty. May there be a return to the simplicity of former
times,
which need not in any way stand in conflict with the progress in
technical
development you have attained, when that development is used for the
good. Soon
the Lord will come, and we will be with Him. The Kingdom of Love will be
re-established on Earth, and it will be a great day for all who have
looked
forward to it, but a dreadful day for those who have opposed it, the
enemies of
love, of the Lord and of God."
Two
messages were given to us, one of them sealed. As he gave the second one to me,
Raphael said, "Soon His kingdom will come on Earth, a kingdom of the
spirit which cannot be entrusted to any hunan power. That also has been
determined, and is recorded in the Scriptures.”
We
were told that the starship was now hovering in space; soon we would enter the
flying disc in order to return to our familiar world again.
CHAPTER 15
On A Wonderful
Planet
We
entered the large flying disc. With us came Raphael, Firkon, Orthon, Kalna,
Ilmuth, Zuhl, and three others of the brothers, two men and a woman. There was
an atmosphere of celebration in the air. The inside of this reconnaissance
craft was different from the one we had been in before. The control room and
the larger inner rooms were separated by softly glowing partitions. In the
middle of the main room was a large column of light, which reached from the
floor to the apex of the domed ceiling.
We
went over to one of the portholes which could be seen along the outer wall.
"Oh, dear Lord!" exclaimed Tina, stepping back as if to recover from
a sudden surge of excitement over what she saw.
Paul,
entranced by the spectacle, could not take his eyes from the scene. We were
gently descending toward the surface of a beautiful world. A greening nature
touched the plains, hills and mountains with life. A large river, in which were
many islands, emptied its blue waters into a great sea. The sky was full of
disc-shaped flying craft. I saw no cities, dwellings, or communities of any
kind. This surprised me, but Raphael, who had read my thoughts, said, "In
these worlds, which are true to the universal laws, man lives in structural
harmony with nature."
The
soft sunny light of a great luminous orb in the sky shed its pleasing splendor
on all the landscape below. I noted that the light was a little different from
that of our own wonderful sun. It filtered down through veil-like cloud patterns
in the light blue sky, lighting up nature's realm in color, sometimes vivid,
sometimes more subdued. Before we knew it, we had landed in the midst of a
luxurious plant-world on a large hill. We could hear in the background the
soothing sound of the sea, as waves lapped gently at an unfamiliar shore. In
the air was a slight breeze. We stepped out onto a grassy plot, quite similar
to our own Earth, except for the variety of tones of green. The trees and their
leaves were more ornamental in form, and delicate in coloration that those I
was familiar with. Among the luxuriant growth were numerous plants and trees
bearing fruit, similar, though not identical, to those we have on Earth. Some
resembled apples, pineapples, or bananas, others were more like cherries or
grapes. Such a profusion, diversity and harmony of plant life, one could have
scarcely ever imagined.
Several
friendly animals came up to us; they were something like our large pandas on
Earth. They showed no fear and posed no threat, seeming happy to have us pet
them.
Then
we started off with the brothers in the direction of a large field, where we
could see a number of reconnaissance craft landing, while others were just
taking off. As we walked along near the field, Ilmuth told us that this was one
of the most important meeting points for the brothers from many worlds. We
walked around a tree with an enormous trunk, whose branches must have reached
out more than a dozen meters in all directions. Its leaves were broad and
beautifully patterned with fine gradations of color ranging from green to red.
I observed it, entranced, while Tina ran up to touch it, by way of greeting.
After that, we walked on farther with the brothers, led by Raphael.
The
hill we were on dropped off steeply down toward the sea, and along the coast
the flora became even more abundant. There, below us we saw a huge building,
like a mushroom or discus, resting on the ground. I had the impression it might
be a dwelling or a temple, or perhaps a guest house, like one of our hotels on
Earth. The building's exterior colors ranged from shades of green to chestnut
brown, from heavenly blue to beige. It struck me that they harmonized perfectly
with the natural setting of the surroundings. Here and there we could see
terraces with a carpeting of decorative moss.
The
great disc-shaped structure seemed to have been constructed of the same
material as the starship, in which we had come there. Although it gave the
impression of being translucent, there was no way to see what was on the
inside. We drew closer, and entered by an open door. The scene that we looked
upon is indescribable! We were in a huge assembly hall, yet it was a park-like
setting, for underfoot were great panels of short meadow grass, bordered with
moss. There were also carpeted areas, which blended beautifully with the
natural decor. Chairs and benches were arranged in groups, some on the carpeted
areas, and some on the lawns. At one side of the great room were lounge chairs
and sofas, all facing toward the center of the room, as is the pattern in some
of our auditoriums. Colums of various sizes rose from the grassy floor to the
ceiling, and into the space above.
Actually,
we discovered, these were the trunks of especially chosen trees, which also
provided a natural ceiling. Their leafy crowns served to diffuse the sun's
bright rays, producing a pleasing play of light and shade that contributed to a
beneficial atmosphere of relaxation and peace. While one could not see into the
building, in spite of its translucent quality, yet it was possible to see
outside and admire the magnificent panorama of nature that was all around us,
and this scene was pleasantly moderated by the filtering action of the walls
and ceiling. At the sides and back of this large hall were small doors which,
without any visible door latches noiselessly opened and closed as people went
in and out. I assumed they opened into rooms used for purposes of recreation,
reading, dining and rest.
From
here we went outdoors again, and Raphael led us to a little area of lawn surrounded
by hedge rows. Huge ornamental shrubs tempered the light from their life-giving
orb, creating lacy patterns of light and shade. We were told that the brothers
were going to put on a play for us here.
We
sat down on the grass. Meanwhile, other persons came to join us, many of them
exchanging greetings and words of conversation. Then all was still. A large
audience filled the green. In the foreground, in front of some of the shrubs,
clouds of colored vapor appeared, and before long had built themselves into a
substantial-looking outdoor theater stage. The light from this mysterious
energy-construct harmonized well with the existing light, but was significantly
brighter.
Several
brothers stepped onto the 'stage' and began with a play in the form of questions
and answers, a sort of comedy, light entertainment or operetta, as we might
call it on Earth. Next came some scenes that were full of light-hearted
celebration and good humor. Everybody laughed and we, too, were swept up with
the gaiety of it, watching this lively play with so many turns of subtle humor
to it, all portrayed with consumate skill. The cheerful natural surroundings
seemed to enhance the spirit of infectious levity that prevailed. Effects were
achieved such as would not likely have been possible in any other setting.
Then
the scene changed, and there followed the production of a gripping story: a man
and a woman, together with other brothers from the higher developed planets of
the universe, were in search of a fellow human who longed to find God, and had
made a journey into space in hopes of finding Him there, without the equipment
necessary for a successful voyage. His knowledge was limited, but his desire
was so great that he abandoned all caution in his eagerness to find a. world where
he might see the Creator's unveiled face with his own eyes and know at first
hand God's perfect love and divine justice. This story, which might sound
almost banal from such a brief summary, was most movingly and convincingly
portrayed, with great fidelity to true life. I saw that many of the brothers
were deeply touched, and that Tina's eyes were moist with tears. Paul told me
that, for his part, he could easily identify with the deep longing of that
simple child of the universe.
After
that, there was a musical play which included many beautiful scenes of group
dancing and interpretive dancing.
We
were completely fascinated by the subtly changing effects of color, light, and
perspective achieved in those scenes, as if choreographed by some unseen
source. The performance was altogether so compelling that one felt more like a
participant than a spectator. I was always aware that it was possible to create
a mood by means of dramatic stage effects. But I could not account for the
sense of close inner relationship I felt with the players in that play.
A
wonderful celebration of joy in one another's presence took place on the green
after the plays. All these brothers from many worlds were happy to see each
other again, and to have the opportunity to exchange news and experiences from
their home planets. I could not say how long all this lasted. As the
life-giving rays of their great 'sun' touched our bodies with pleasant warmth,
so the spirit-lifting power of this mutually edifying social time touched our
souls with inner satisfaction.
After
a while we returned and once more went inside of the large mushroom-shaped
building. Here, we found the brothers were gathering together in great numbers.
A wonderful aroma, such as of blossoms in springtime, filled the air. The
beautiful young woman from the higher realms was there before us all, smiling
and majestic. And at her side was a man of magnificent bearing. I recognized
Him as the One who had appeared to me in the form of a light apparition, one
night after Raphael's annunciation. As at that time, He was clothed in white,
had blue eyes, chestnut-hrown hair and beard, and appeared to be about thirty
years of age. With them, were a number of men and women, of striking, yet
unassuming, beauty, whose gracious and reverent demeanor aroused feelings of
great respect. Now all eyes were turned expectantly toward the exalted lady of
the universe and toward the Lord, who was about to speak.
"Love
be unto all the children of the Heavenly Father," He said, "and peace
to the people of good will from the Earth!" His words commanded the total
attention of everyone present.
"I
gave my life for my lambs on Earth," He continued in loving tones that
went straight to the heart. "I received the power from my Father to lay
down my life and to take it up again. That is the assignment that was given to
me by my Father in Heaven."
His
beneficent glance turned toward the queenly person beside Him. She looked at
Him, and again for many minutes the response of joyous acclamation swept in
waves across the crowd.
"Soon,"
He said, turning again to the audience in the great hall, "we will be able
to say to the people of Earth that all the Scriptures have been fulfilled.
Scon, I will make all things new, and, according to the promises, there will be
a new Heaven and a new Earth. These I will bring into being, in accordance with
my Heavenly Father's will."
"You,"
He said in a firm and gentle voice, "are my friends and my brothers. With
you I will bring together all my children from all times, and everything will
be fulfilled in accord with the Father's laws of universal love. Justice will
reign, and all will see and recognize the truth. Out of respect for the
Father's great gift of freedom to all of His children, we gave only love, deeds
of kindness, and words of life to those who also worked against us, to smother
the happiness of truth and stifle the joy of our heart and to cause us much
suffering and pain. We took this suffering upon ourselves, as we also do
willingly today, because we want to share in the suffering of God the Father.
But, above all, we have determined to give the word which would show the right
path for man to take, and which would, through its power, bring the gifts of
understanding and everlasting life. Many children of God the Father have spread
my words to the people of Earth; they reveal the thoughts and heart of the
Creator. Therefore, they are not always loved and esteemed by those who do not
honor the Father's truth.”
"Many
prophets preceded My coming to the world of the children of Earth. When I did
come, I was called the Word by those who were my own, and who received me. I
told them who I was, and was delivered unto death. I showed myself in this
body, which was able to go through the walls of the Earth-dweller's houses, and
I ate with them, in order to show them I could, whenever I wished, be
transported to other dimensions and other surrounds. You, brothers, have gone
before me and have followed in my steps. And even now, you continue to do as I
do and desire that which I desire, for that is the will of the Heavenly Father,
who binds us together in His all-embracing love. However, this word, which many
messengers have brought to Earth, and which I taught and lived, did not
persuade some opponents of the light to adopt the way of love and universal
truth. We were patient, and will always be patient, for the Heavenly Father is
patient. But the sorrow which He felt, and the pain of so many brothers who
unjustly suffer, and in so many times and places have suffered, were known in
Heaven. The brother John heard the prayers of the martyrs and, divinely
inspired, recorded his apocalyptic vision in the book of Revelation.
"Therefore,
the Father has asked of me that all things on Earth should be made new, and
that my enemies,—the enemies of freedom, happiness and universal love—should be
made His footstool. It has been determined that the planet Earth and its
children, who suffer from hunger and thirst, but who long for brotherly love
and justice, will at last be restored to peace and tranquility. Therefore, soon
the Heavenly Father and I, my blessed Mather, and all the children of the
universal brotherhood, will experience together the return of Earth, the
prodigal, to the fellowship of love and peace, which unites us all in God the
Father. In other times and places, the Father's constant concern has been over
His children's sin and sorrow, strife and destruction, but no longer will this
be true of planet Earth. Truly, the Earth will once more become a paradise, a
garden of Eden. On the starships there will be feasts of celebration and great
joy when we deliver into the Father's hands, and to His dispensation of
infinite love, compassion, justice, His readiness to forgive and slowness to
anger, the opponents,-~those brothers who did not want to learn from the
thousands of years experience of evil, and chose to remain deaf to the word of
love and truth that was given them, and was sealed with the blood of the
martyrs."
There
was a sympathetic response from the audience, from which it was evident that
they shared deeply both in the anguish of Earth's travail and the joy over the
prospect of a new dispensation.
"Soon,"
He said, "I will come, brothers of Earth; yes, we will come in the clouds
to bind the power of hatred and death. Then you will see virtues of humility
and integrity shine forth. Service in love and learning will replace the grip
of might. It will be the end of the beast that wanted to put itself in the
place of God. Man is symbolized by the number six, whereas the number three is
the symbol for God. Six-sixty-six is three sixes, and therefore represents the
man who would put himself in the place of God the Father. That is the number of
the beast that will be defeated, and with it the false prophet, who has given
his own false word, a word which is not mine, nor yours, nor that of the only
true universal Father.”
"When
all has been brought to fulfillment, then you, the cherubim of the scriptures,
will take up your guardianship duties, and ensure that all my Earth children
can travel throughout the numberless realms of space created through the
Father's love. I can testify to the joyous, creative power of the Father's
love. No one knows the Father as I do. His children have the right to explore
the immense reaches of space, to visit innumerable created worlds, and to pluck
the abundant fruits of His love, but they do not have the right to abuse His
great love, or to betray themselves, their own lives, or those of their
brothers.”
“We
sent Noah, Moses, Elijah, Enoch, and many others. The brother Elijah, a great
son of the Father, cried out, 'I am consumed with eagerness for God, the Lord
of Hosts!' And, like him, so have others we have sent out prayed to Him who
sent His heavenly host to Earth before Him. We carried Elijah and many others to
our starships, and thus occurred an instance of the first resurrection of the
body, of which all the prophets have spoken, and of which John also spoke in
the book of Revelation, in connection with the millennium.”
"We
have always accompanied the people of Earth, just as Raphael once did accompany
the young Tobias. Never have we left you all alone. Our word meant salvation
and true understanding for all who would accept it as the light of truth. We
showed the prophets a vision of the end times and the final victory of the God
of Hosts, following a foolish insurrection of many of His children. Ezekiel was
shown things that even now are being seen, and will be increasingly seen in the
coming days. It is written, not that He created darkness, but that He created
light, and separated it from the darkness. For this was done by One who had the
power to do it. All that the Father made was good,—exceedingly good, as the
Scriptures which tell of creation repeatedly state. After the exodus from
Earth, the likes of which have never been known in the history of the world, or
of religion, every man-made law will make way for the Godly and universal laws
of the Heavenly Father.”
"The
children of all-embracing love will no longer be seduced into dishonoring
themselves; the putrefaction of every whited sepulcher will be made known. The
history of evil will come to an end, and every deceitful trick of the prince of
darkness will be exposed. Soon those previously sealed up things which were
uttered by the seven thunders will be seen and understood throughout the Earth.
Prepare yourselves, you who hunger and thirst because of injustice; the
heavenly kingdom is near, and all will see it. Not a single one of your heart's
desires will be unfulfilled." Everyone arose, and their voices joined in
unison:
"Our
Father, who art in heaven,
Hallowed be
thy name.
Thy kingdom
come,
Thy will be
done, on Earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this
day our daily bread,
And forgive us
our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors;
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from
evil."
Radience
streamed from the figures of the Lord and the blessed Lady. He stood in a
golden light, and she in a snow-white light, which seemed to fill the whole
room. At first, the snow-white light of the blessed Lady predominated. It was
as if a sun of incomparable brilliance were shining in the temple, reaching
into the farthest corners, blessing all in its path. I could tell that all the
brothers around me could sense the influence of that shining glory, as I could.
At a very deep level, we felt, increasingly, in union with one another and with
the blessed Lady herself.
Every
thought, feeling, emotion and insight blended together in one great symphony of
love. What we experienced was a true harmony of mind and heart. The feeling
inspired by that wonderful, luminous presence united and enkindled our spirits.
We were all one.
I
was aware of invisible worlds and the brothers that inhabited them. I sensed a
love which embraced all Creation, and a longing which drew my whole being
toward the Father. It was as if showers of blessings were pouring down on us
from above, suffusing us with deep feelings of cleanliness and release.
Now
it was the figure of the Lord that shone with a brightness that rivaled the
sun, and that fine golden light bestowed on everyone present a feeling of
ecstasy and inner wholeness. In this house of living light, I was aware of
entire universes. I knew that man had no limitation in the dimension of the
spirit, and, at the same time, I felt enveloped in perfect peace and melted
with quiet rapture.
When
all this was at its highest point, and I felt surrounded by the steadfast love
of all the brothers, the most pure and unselfish love of the universal Mather,
and the life-giving love of the divine-human Son, a sublime fire took
possession of every living being present. It was like a golden cord, from abyss
to abyss, from world to world, from heaven to heaven, from ecstasy to ecstasy.
In that fire, all things were revealed, all mysteries were made clear. I heard
again the words that had been given to us, and I knew that this fire expressed
them all. I saw a Godly Countenance of incomprehensible beauty coming down from
above. It drew closer to look into our eyes and claim possession of every fiber
of our being; and so also with respect to each individual brother(and sister)
present, and the divine Mother and the Lord.
This
sublime personification repeated itself a second, and yet a third time, the
last time seeming to appear as if coming from all directions at all points in
the room at the same time. It enkindled in every heart a longing for peace and
love that could only be satisfied by being willing to lose one's self
completely in God.
Then
it was all over and we left in quiet contemplation of what had taken place.
After an experience like that, it took quite a little while for us to return to
reality and regain the strength needed to resume normal functions of life
consistent with our actual surroundings at the time.
We
returned to the flying disc. Our parting was a festive occasion, which once
more served to demonstrate the brothers' unqualified love for us, and good will
toward the planet Earth. Boarding the disc with us were Raphael, Firkon, Kalna,
Ilmuth and Zuhl, who was our pilot. The circular craft trembled slightly, and
we climbed up in the bright sky toward the mother-ship which hovered silently
in the thinner atmosphere above. The journey back to Earth had begun.
CHAPTER 16
The Last Meeting
In
early September, 1981, we received the call to our last meeting. We proceeded
to a certain region near Genoa, as directed. Arriving at the appointed place,
we soon saw the landed flying disc, a silent, shining wonder in the gray
morning light. Three human figures were moving toward us, and we stood there in
the grass waiting for them. I felt heartsick and sore distressed to think that
this might be our last meeting together.
The
sight of that beautiful young woman from the highest heavenly realms, who had
such unbounded love that she would humble herself to visit the children of
Earth in their time of need, touched me so deeply that I was scarcely able to
hold back the tears. The others who were with me were also visibly moved, and
kept their gaze intently fixed on the three visitors. It was not the same as when
we were on that wonderful planet we had visited. And yet, that divine personage
was standing before us even as then, and our hearts were enraptured with pure,
untainted love.
The
young lady smiled with gentle gracious warmth. "Now," she said,
"all is complete. You are ready for your mission of being witness to what
you have seen and what you have heard. God's spirit will be your helper."
I
felt so small and imperfect before this wonderful being that I could not bring
myself to speak. But she waited and smiled again, and before long my timidity
left me.
"What
should we do?" I asked, "and how are we to do it?"
The
look of gentle compassion never left her eyes, and the measured silence that
greeted my queries gave eloquent response. It was as if she wanted to allow us
time to focus our powers of attention to the fullest degree. Then she began:
"It is not necessary to follow a human plan. The Spirit will lead you and
teach you what you should do and what you should say. You know enough now. Did
you not see how simply we led you to an understanding of that which is
essential? Truly, this is the greatest teaching of Heaven for you, dear
children: simplicity, which is perfect humility."
She
repeated with emphasis, and it fell upon our ears like a melody:
"Simplicity,
honesty, humility!"
A
deep sense of peace settled upon me and released my mind from every question
concerning the future of the mission entrusted to us, and the way in which it
could best be carried out. The beautiful young woman also had other things to
say to us at that time. Raphael and Firkon followed her words attentively,
smiling now and then.
"Several
times," I said, "there has been talk about the book that should be
published. Please tell us what we are expected to do."
Her
response was gracious and definite. "You will write a book," she
said. "The publisher will cone forward at the right time, and the Spirit
will lead him to publish it in accordance with the wishes of the highest
Heavens. Have faith always, in order that God may guide your steps!"
It
was now about mid-day. The thick canopy of clouds that had covered the sky
began to disperse, and between patches of cloud and mist, bright rays of
sunlight came streaming through. The young woman looked as if she were wrapped
in a mantle of golden light. In the aura of her queenly presence, we
involuntarily dropped to our knees. Firkon began to recite in prayer: "The
angel of the Lord brought the message to the Virgin Mary."
"And
she conceived by the Holy Spirit," Raphael responded, with deep reverence.
All
of us, brothers from Earth and brothers from the stars, knelt in a circle
around the Virgin Mother, who stood with Her hands folded and Her shining
countenance turned heavenward, as if in rapt adoration of the Father-Creator of
us all.
Her
dress seemed to be made of the finest silk; it was light blue and had no seams.
There was a white sash about her waist. The sleeves were white, and gathered at
the wrists. Her brown-blond hair fell in waves over Her back and shoulders.
Raphael
wore a gold-colored tunic, which at times seemed to take on a dark yellow or
chestnut-brown hue. Firkon wore a loose-fitting khaki-brown flying suit. Both
wore sandals of a color somewhat like copper, while the blessed lady was
barefoot.
Raphael
began to pray, using the words of the 'Ave Maria'. We prayed after him, and
blessings filled our hearts to overflowing. We would have gladly stayed there
where we were much longer, or have gone back into space with Her, so great was
our feeling of joy and benediction in Her presence. But she gently bade us,
with a gesture of the hand, to stand up.
"You
will find little understanding on the part of mankind on Earth," She said,
"but those who wish to understand, will listen to you. Many who believe in
God will accuse you of desecration, because you have dared to represent
Heavenly realities and supernatural beings in cosmic or universal terms. Ask
them why God Himself wanted to descend to the cosmos, and, on Earth, appear in
human form. Fear not,' The Spirit will lead you and support you, as will a part
of those who are dedicated to serving Jesus and His cause,—namely, your
salvation."
The
young woman also told us many things concerning the coming times, as well as
the mission entrusted to us, and made us aware of some of the problems that we
would encounter while getting started on our mission.
"You
have nothing to fear," she said. "You will give your witness. Be
humble, and serve your brothers as God serves us and we serve you. I will
always be near you, and will care for you, as would a mother."
She
said still other things to us, and gave us further advice, wise and prudent, in
the manner of a mother or an elder sister, acting out of gracious concern. Then
She blessed us, laying hands on each one in turn. She smiled on us once more,
and while we were still kneeling in the grass, returned with Raphael and Firkon
to the ship.
The
disc hovered but a moment, then streaked upward with a flash, and disappeared
from sight. In our hearts we felt a tremendous sense of inner peace, in spite
of the poignant realization that this was probably our last meeting.
CHAPTER 17
A Gift of Rescue
It
was not easy to return to the routine of daily life without the prospect of
further contacts with the brothers. But we had not lost the ability to have
'cosmic contact', and that enabled us, during the time that followed, to make
our concerns known to Heaven. In particular, it was made clear to us that we
must make our witness to Earth brothers without waiting for further contacts or
unusual happenings.
I
thought about many things that had been said to us. Now, I could understand why
we were repeatedly told: "You must have great faith." Truly, I had
for a long time had the impression of living life immersed in light, and now I
felt plunged into darkness. I began, for the first time, to really understand
what it means, in this world, to have faith, in order to keep moving forward
into the light. These days were, for me, difficult to bear.
Certain
things which they had said came to my mind again: "You will know, and yet
you will be, otherwise, like everyone else," or: "If, in past times,
any Earth person had had such an experience as yours, and then had been brought
back to resume normal life without our help, that person would have surely
suffered from insanity. But do not be afraid; you will not lose your minds.
None of you will become insane." That gave me renewed faith and inner
strength, and helped greatly to relieve my feelings of anguish.
Tina
and Paul also had to endure a similar period of testing. Now and again we would
have long talks about this, and often Tina would grow disconsolate and resort
to tears. I began telling certain of my friends and acquaintances something
about the experiences we had undergone,-myself as leader, and the others along
with me. The word got around, and soon the people of our village were talking
about it. We were not spared from a good deal of skeptical comment and other
painful experiences that added to our personal difficulties. Tina was urged to
suspend her activities altogether for a certain period of time.
Accompanied
by
Paul, I began to talk to the first groups of persons that expressed a
sincere desire to learn just what had happened. Paul felt confident and
sure of
himself. I, on the other hand, felt a certain amount of inner
resistance,
primarily as a consequence of my natural shyness. Urged on by the
example of
Paul's courage, I began giving talks before various groups of people in
Genoa. Whenever I had to speak, I seemed to receive the strength to do
so; I felt peaceful
inside, and because my heart was full of love, the words flowed easily.
Then,
again, my former mood would overtake me, and I would have liked to have
gone
into hiding. When people asked me all manner of questions, I would
remember how
many questions we had asked the brothers from the universe. Several
times I had
asked Firkon (who never wished to reveal his true name to us), why they
treated
us with so much love and patience. Their answer was always the same:
"God
loves us, and we love you." So now we, in turn, felt an inner compulsion
to transmit this great love to the Earth brothers.
In
the six months of meetings with the brothers, the voice of the Lord had often
spoken to me. It urged me to open ray Bible in the quiet of my room, and to
read it and pray.
This
I did, and while I read the words of the Scriptures, the Lord spoke to me and
helped me to understand many things that were previously not clear. His voice
was pleasant amd impressive, and it inspired me with new enthusiasm whenever I
heard it. I was enthralled by the beauty of the biblical narrative, and had to
marvel at the way in which the events of our day could be read into the words
of that ancient text.
I
saw Him in the midst of undulating colored light, as He had appeared to me one
night many months earlier. Often I was aware of His presence at my side, and
always I felt strengthened with a deep sense of inner peace and joy.
One
day as I was thinking about the words the brothers had spoken to us such a
short time ago, I opened my Bible at random, and was suddenly aware of the
Lord's presence near me, and I heard Him say: "Too long have I dwelt among
those who hate peace. I speak words of peace, but they press on for war." The
words are to be found to the one hundred and twentieth Psalm, which is entitled:
"The Enemies of Peace."
I
was confused, and asked what war He was speaking about. He answered:
"The
true realities are spiritual, not material. When I speak to you, I refer above
all to that which pertains to the spirit. However, I have told you before that
the listerial destiny and the spiritual destiny are closely bound
together." There followed a long silence, during which I was acutely aware
of the presence of the Lord, who was now at my right side. When He spoke, there
was sadness in His voice:
"A
great war, such as the planet has never before seen, will be but a pale
reflection of the spiritual destruction that the enemy will bring upon the
children of the Heavenly Father. As it is written in the Revelation of John, it
will even cause the stars of heaven to fall. But not all. The Father will
answer with love and an incomparable gift of rescue for the Earth."
I
recalled what the Blessed Lady had told us at the time of our meeting on
the
great plain. I understood that this referred to the third message of
Fatima, and the events that would occur just before the millenium, as
John had prophesied
in Revelation. Again there was a long period of silence. I saw His
radiant
face. I sensed that He had more to say, and I waited expectantly. This
prophesy
would be especially difficult for Earthman to accept, and yet I took it
as a
wonderful indication of compassion and grace. He continued: "Read the
messages from my loving Mother: Fatima, LaSalette, and others. She has
come
down to bring a great germinating seed of love and salvation to the
Earth, but
also to bring an earnest warning to those who wish to see the triumph of
evil
over all. These purveyors of calamity will have not the least excuse for
the
devastation that follows, for there have been such prophesies and
portents that
even the blind and the deaf must be aware of your perilous state."
The
Lord was now no longer in the form of an almost tangible presence near me, as
before. My heart was filled to overflowing with an inexpressible love, despite
the feeling of sadness that accompanied His final words.
I
wanted immediately to go out from my room and tell everyone I met on the street
that we must all get busy and actively work for change—to become better
persons, individually, and a better people, collectively.
I
thought of the words of Jesus, that no man stands above the Master. I wrote in
my notebook, as always, the words He spoke in my mind, and I renewed with my
whole heart my steadfast determination to do my modest best for the cause of
the planet's salvation. This is the obligation, and the glorious opportunity,
entrusted to all persons of good will.
CHAPTER 18
Physical Evidence
of My Encounter
Genoa, March 4,
1984
In
the second chapter of my book, "Angels in Starships", originally
published by Edizioni Mediterranee in Rome, I told, as I did also in the German
manuscript, of my first experience with a flying disc from outer space.
Busy
with important matters that were on my mind at the time of the first writing, I
neglected to include some significant details which I would now like to
mention, since I have received a friendly inquiry from the editor of the
journal, "UFO Nachrichten", in Wiesbaden. On the pages of the second
chapter of "Angels in Starships", I reported everything that I had
recorded concerning that first meeting with the archangel Raphael by the
hovering spaceship, at which time he spoke with me for about two hours. But
what I did not put into writing, and what was known to only a few witnesses —no
eyewitnesses to the occurrence, but some to whom I spoke about it shortly
afterward—was the fact that at the moment the spaceship (which throughout the
encounter had been hovering over some trees) started to leave, it put out such
a burst of energy that all the joint compounds and sealing gaskets of the
engine of my auto, (a Fiat 500L), were melted. When I tried to start my motor,
it put out a great cloud of white smoke.
I
could not tell the mechanic, whom I called about the problem, the true reason
for the breakdown, because I was afraid he would never believe me. He checked
the car carefully, and was astounded at its condition. The only possible
explanation he could offer was that I must have driven in slow traffic for a
long time, causing a massive engine overheating which melted the joint
compounds and gaskets. But he really had no explanation at all, that could
satisfy him For my part, I did not press the matter further, and simply agreed
that he might be right, so no more questions were asked. In order not to have
to reveal to the auto repair man my close encounter with the extraterrestrial
flying disc, and since I could not disprove his theory, I kept quiet, and let
him entertain his own ideas about how this engine damage might have occurred.
Thus
came
the evening of that significant day, and I had to return to Genoa by
train. I left my Fiat 500 at the repair garage in Finale.
Some
time later, I asked Raphael and the other space brothers why they had allowed
this harm to come from the flying disc, a thing which had caused me
inconvenience because of having to return to Genoa by train, and to spend money
for auto repair. I told Raphael that it didn't seem to me to be in tune with
their teaching about universal love.
Raphael's
answer seemed reasonable and well-considered. He said that it was very
important that I have no doubt that I had a real encounter with the flying disc
and with him. With an indication such as this, which could not possibly be
misunderstood, I would have no lingering doubt that I might have had a dream
experience, or might have been the victim of some strange fantasy. According to
him, the fact that the cosmic energy from the space vehicle could do serious
damage to my auto would be evidence that I could not easily set aside, of the
reality of all that I had experienced. I was urged not to let the incident
trouble me, nor to be excessively concerned about the reasons for it. I was to
accept the fact that there was a purpose behind that which was done.
Now
I want to relate another incident, still in connection with that first
encounter, known only to two of my friends in Genoa. Against Raphael's wishes,
I went to that first meeting with a mini-tape recorder, which I carried
concealed in my pocket the whole time, in an effort to obtain as much evidence
as possible. Raphael, who without doubt knew about it, warned me not to make
use of any technical apparatus during our meeting together. But he did not
specifically insist that I turn off the recorder. He did tell me that no
picture taking would be allowed.
During
my return trip from Finale to Genoa after the meeting, I held the mini-recorder
to my ear to hear how much of that first meeting might have been successfully
recorded on the tape. I was very happy to find that the apparatus did indeed
play back some portions of my conversation with Raphael, although in an
irregular and incomplete form; evem the humming sound of the nearby spaceship
could clearly be heard.
The
following morning, when I had to return the mini-tape recorder to my two
friends in Genoa, I could not resist the temptation to give them at least some
idea of the reason for my asking to borrow their little recorder. So I wanted
them to hear at least the first part of the recording I had played over to
myself while on the train. To my great surprise, it was almost completely
erased, as if by some invisible hand. What little was left of the voices and
the humming sound seemed so distorted , it was of no use at all, and my friends
could not understand what could have happened to cause their recorder to
produce such a poor result.
These
and other details which I purposely left out of the Italian edition of "Angels
in Starships" certainly add nothing, especially on the human level, to the
inner and spiritual realities of those supernatural events that I, Tina, and
the other friends from Genoa experienced. But for us, they remain as an
enrichment of the experiences which we had, and they could also serve as
objective proof. They confirm, on the human level, the great and sympathetic
concern, as well as the awesome activity, of the extraterrestrial brothers who
visit us.
Giorgio Dibitonto, Genoa
Concluding
Remarks
by Eufemio del Buono
In my Forward, I set forth some pertinent facts as a background
for the text. It is my hope that these closing remarks will provide an informative
and enlightening supplement.
In order to complete our journey to the past, it remains but to
turn our attention to the Holy Scriptures. If one studies the sacred literature
of the people of all the Earth with an open mind, one will discover that the
'sky cars' in the writings from India, China and primitive America, the
'feathered serpent' of the Popul Vuh, (Bible of the Quiche Indians of the great
Mayan race), the 'firebird' of the Hopi Indians, the 'transparent spheres and
sky pearls' of the Kaniur and Tamiur,(sacred books of the Lamas of Tibet), as
well as the 'clouds and pillars and fiery chariots' of the Old and New
Testaments, all possess remarkably similar characteristics. We have the
'vimanas' or 'ventlas' of the Asiatic Indians, the mighty flying craft of the
Gods of Homer, the globes and shields in the heavens of Cicero, Julius
Obsequens, and Plinius the elder, Seneca, Valerius Maximus and Xenophon, also
the spheres and trumpets of Lycostenes, and finally the discs and cigar shaped
flying objects of our time. The only difference is that in the past, sightings
were described in mystical or awe-inspiring terms, in the light of the
knowledge of those days.
Erich von Daniken asserts in his book, "Memories of the
Future", that it was not God's chariot that Ezekiel saw at the river
Kebar, but simply a spaceship which the prophet, knowing nothing of space
flight, could only describe in the vocabulary of his time.
When the NASA engineer, Joseph F. Blumerich, (from the American
space program), read von Daniken's took, he was disturbed, both from a
scientific and religious point of view. He determined to refute the author's
thesis on scientific and technical grounds, and began his own study of the
Ezekiel text. To his great surprise, he came to the conclusion that von Daniken
was right. Following the exact description which the prophet gives, a spaceship
could be designed consistent with engineering principles, which would not only
be technically feasible, but also practical for accomplishing its intended
purpose. Blumerich reported his work in detail in his book, "The
Spaceships of Ezekiel". Although his original intention of disproving von
Daniken's thesis ended in defeat, he writes, "Never was defeat so richly
rewarding, so fascinating and enjoyable."
Today, following George Adamski and this book, "Angels in
Starships", we can combine the two interpretations in this way: one may
assert that Ezekiel and some of the other prophets really had seen flying discs
and spaceships, and had even flown in them occasionally; and one may also be
sure these were the 'chariots of the Lord'. Neither of these realities excludes
the other; on the contrary, they tell us about a possible bonding or synthesis
of science and religion.
Actually it is clear, as Adamski taught us and this book
confirms, that there is no reality in Creation that is not religious, since all
was set in motion by the Eternal Word, and since nothing in the universe that
God created and gave to man can remain forever unknown or beyond man's
understanding.
Therefore it is obvious that with this new viewpoint, nothing is
made less sacred, but rather more understandable, for we know that this 'cosmic
fleet' has always been active over our planet and it will continue to work, and
that its goal is the development of a supernatural order from a supernatural
source.
Today we can read the testimony of Ezekiel, of the prophets, and
of the modern contactees, and understand the cosmic and supernatural reality of
the visitors who come from the universe of many realms.
Moreover, and this is the spiritual side of the phenomenon, we
can well believe that the universe is not just the result of a chance meeting
of atoms, as many like to maintain, but the realization of a great plan that
springs from the heart of God, and that Creation itself is ruled in perfect
harmony by exact and eternal laws.
Concerning the possibility of other life-forms in the universe, a
great theologian, the Dominican Father Monsambré, has expressed himself in
these words: "Why should not the stars be inhabited with beings lower than
the angels, but more advanced than we are? Between the recondite life of pure
spirit and our dense, rational, vegetative life, there is surely room for other
forms of life. Could one not believe that the divine Shepherd might leave the
ninety-nine steep in the other realms of space in order to seek the hundredth
who was lost here below?"
Therefore the Earth is but one of the many dwelling places in the
Father's house; it is the planet of testing, of opportunity for restoration,
and of healing, where mankind, because of his freedom of choice and his limited
understanding, must walk paths of pain and suffering to refine his spirit and
make his weary ascent up the ladder of development.
One may assume, then, other intelligences, or as Father Monsambré
says, other life-forms with the ability to reason, who have developed sciences
far in advance of our own, and who, in addition, are obedient to the cosmic
laws of love and brotherhood, but who live on other planes and planets of the
Father's house of many dwelling places. If these beings are given the
assignment, (or assume it of their own free will), of watching over mankind in
his development, giving advice or warning according to need, as citizens of the
cosmos and guardians of the eternal laws which govern the development of the
universe, then we can see the basis for the appearance of these intelligences
and their conveyances at this time. We can understand their effort to bring the
higher cosmic thoughts and teachings to even the common man, who was so long
shielded from them, as well as to the prophets and mystics who, as spiritually
developed persons, were always more receptive to them.
The foregoing reasoning also explains why the presence of such
beings is frequently alluded to in the works of ancient historians, who
recorded unmistakable sightings, as well as in the Holy Scriptures of all the
people of the Earth, which tell of supernatural envoys who bring moral
instructions and admonitions directed toward the betterment of mankind.
Moreover, it explains why the planet has never been conquered or overrun; and
finally, it gives us the reason for the continual presence in the skies of
Earth, a presence which is more noticable under special circumstances, and
occurs on a massive scale when mankind nears the end of a cycle of development.
The proof that the 'end times' are at hand is furnished by man
himself with the costly error he has committed; namely, after having succeeded
in splitting the atom, he has applied that enormous, awesome power to
self-seeking and destructive purposes. This represents a bad use of the freedom
to choose one's destiny, and when that happens, the immutable laws of cause and
effect sooner or later enter in to upset all man's proud intentions by releasing
the deadly effects of built-up negativity, and causing them finally to undo
him.
The frightful nuclear outlook has demeaned the spirit of man and
shamed his wisdom, in that it has made him capable of destroying himself and
all other living species on the surface of the Earth. And it is likewise
possible to carry this hate and destruction into the universe because of the
great imbalance between his intellect, (which on the level of technology and
natural science is outstanding), and his conscience, which is fatally lacking
in moral and spiritual development. This then explains why, since 1945, the
time of the first atomic bomb explosion, these extraterrestrial 'guardians'
have increased their activity and have shown themselves in greater numbers over
the whole planet, with landings and many times with contacts with Earth people
from all nations and all walks of life.
After this brief overview of the background of the phenomenon of
the extraterrestrial flying discs, although not exhaustive nor presented in an
original manner, it should be evident that the contents of the book,
"Angels in Starships" can now be read with greater understanding.
The attentive reader may ask, having learned the identity of
Ramu, if the extraterrestrials act only for the benefit of those who accept the
Old and New Testaments. The answer was given by the appearance of a great
cosmic space fleet on November 4, 1954. On that day, forty flying discs came in
delta formation from the four directions of the compass over Rome, and then, over
the Vatican City, the center of Christendom, and formed an immense Greek cross,
the symbol of the universal brotherhood.
After reading this book, it would be useful to read again about
the glory of the Lord as revealed to Ezekiel, about the burning bush from which
the Lord spoke to Moses before He led His people with fiery discs and
column-like space ships, and so many evidences of that sort that are to be
found in the Bible. In this way one can understand that all that Georgio
Dibitonto, Tina, and their friends, and other contactees of different nations
and religions have experienced, is part of a great operation of rescue and
homecoming for all mankind, that is being carried out on a grand scale over the
whole planet by this extraterrestrial space fleet.
It is not surprising that the 'contactees' are not chosen from
the ranks of the educated or scientific elite, although there are exceptions;
the extraterrestrials do as Jesus did, who befriended simple fishermen. They
trust their message to humble persons, who are gifted with spiritual
receptivity and strength of soul.
Relying on these inner resources and guidance from above, one can
learn the significant message this book has for us without the encumbrance of
tedious detail, which most people would probably find unbelievable anyway. Ramu
spoke with great insight when he told Georgio: "The confusion which reigns
over Earth today serves to convince but a few persons that all the prophesies
which have been given to mankind to lead them toward a better life are about to
be fulfilled. They have been ridiculed, misunderstood, despised and even
repudiated. And yet their words have always been fulfilled. So much sorrow that
Earth brothers could be spared if they could set aside their pride and their
reliance on destructive force. If you would renounce the use of evil to fight
evil, then your way would be shortened, and you would make enormous strides
toward the good."
For George Adamski, life was full of bitter disappointment.
Giorgio Dibitonto is well aware of this, and gives the message which he
likewise received solely on the basis of his love and good faith. It is up to
the reader to allow himself the spiritual receptivity necessary to embody it
and let its light shine through his soul and manifest through his actions.
At Fatima, thousands of persons saw a light or a luminous object
come from the heavens to Earth where Luzia spoke with the apparition of the
Virgin Mary. This was witnessed even by non-believers who were there at the
time to observe the promised wonder from the skies. I believe this object and
these realities were the same as those experienced by Giorgio, Tina, and their
friends, and the same as those experienced, each in a different way, by George
Adamski and many other people all over the Earth, as well as the prophets of
former times. Ezekiel is perhaps the most striking illustration of the latter,
with his description of discs and vehicles.
The evangelist Luke recorded for us the words of the Master:
"When you see a cloud rising in the west, you say at once, 'A shower is
coming'; and so it happens. And when you see a south wind blowing, you say,
'There will be scorching heat"; and it happens. You hypocrites! You know
how to interpret the appearance of Earth and sky; but why do you not know how
to interpret the present tine? And why do you not judge for yourselves what is
right?"
Jesus' warning is again sounded by this book, 'Angels in
Starships', as it was by Adamski, this time in a way appropriate to today's
understanding, yet fitting in perfectly with the message of the evangelist,
who, over two thousand years ago, wrote: "There will be great and awesome
signs in the Heavens". However, the terrible happenings in our world come
from Earthman's pride and stupidity, whereas the signs in the Heavens are signs
of love and brotherliness, shown by the extraterrestrial brothers for the
salvation of mankind.

APPENDIX I
A Summary of
George Adamski's contacts with Venusians
No more appropriate summary of the earlier contacts by George
Adamski with the same Venusian extraterrestrials mentioned in this Dibitanto
story may be found than that published in a volume appropriately called THE
SCORITON MYSTERY by Eileen Buckle, published by Neville Spearman in 1967, and
now long out of print.
We found it so difficult to excise any part of that summary,
published as Chapter Three, that we have freely reproduced those fifteen pages
here as an Appendix to this work. We highly reccomend a detailed reading of
that whole book for more precise corroboration of the entire George Adamski
story and the Venusians activities here on Earth.
Our own personal interest in the Adamski
Story had been sparked
by our investigation in the 1960s of William D. Clendenen's sightings,
contacts, and finally being taken aboard a bell-shaped ship very much
like one
George Adamski photographed. This first happened to Clendenen up in
Washington State and followed him to Tennessee and eventually to
Mississippi.
Bill had been seeing strange unexplained moving stars at night
for some time, and when he first read of Adamski's experiences he mentally
asked the moving stars to give him a sign if there was anything to all this. In
response - the "stars" flew sharp-angled triangles over his head,
something no manmade object could successfully do, and he became convinced.
Then he was approached very closely by an Adamski-type bell-shaped craft over
his home above Puget Sound and he could observe the detail very closely. It was
just like the one George Adamski had photographed at 09:10 in the morning of 13
December 1952 over Palomar Gardens, California.
Shortly after this sighting the extraterrestrial occupants of the
craft began contacting Bill mentally and would set up meetings with him in
secluded spots which he would go to and meet them. Finally he too was taken
aboard the ship and allowed to ask questions and to examine the ship. These
remarkable contacts continued after that and they changed Bill's life forever.
Shortly after the aerial display of lights moving in triangles
Bill Clendenen contacted George Adamski and advised him what was happening.
Adamski warned him to keep his secret among close friends or expect trouble for
speaking out.
Another case of Venusian contact I investigated was that of Navy
Lt. Commander Frank Halsey and his wife Tarna. Frank, a near relative of 5-star
Admiral "Bull" Halsey, began experiencing contacts with the same
Venusian extraterrestrials that had begun contacting his uncle somewhat
earlier. The ETs eventually allowed Frank Halsey to bring his wife into the
contacts and they went aboard the ship together.
The Halsey's dutifully reported their
contacts to U.S. Navy intelligence and it went up the line. Tarna told
me that there was a time during
Eisenhour's later years as President of the United States, after
President
Eisenhour had experienced his own fact-to-face contact with
extraterrestrial
intelligences, when she and her husband had been summoned to the White
House to
discuss their experiences with the President. As agreed at that time,
they have
never released the details of their two hour meeting with the President.
In the 1970s I began a 5 year line of correspondence with Ron
Card, a university student in Miami at the time, who was being contacted by
healthy youthful-looking human beings who told him they came from what we call
Venus. They eventually took him to their ship, a bell-shaped craft, and then
aboard it and answered many of his urgent questions. Those contacts continued
for many years and Ron learned the virtue of silence. His story alone would
fill a big book.
About the time I was working with Ron Card, I came into posession
of the Mitchell sisters 216 page personal account of their contacts with human
beings who said they came from Venus, who repeatedly took one then the other
aboard their bell-shaped craft and out to a mother-ship in space. Helen and
Betty Mitchell, native Texans, once appeared on a lecture platform with George
Adamski, and their statements were summarized from memory by Gray Barker and
published in a small paper-covered pamphlet titled THE MITCHELL SISTER'S STORY.
They too learned the virtue of silence. Nothing else was ever published.
But there were other contacts of my own with contactees who
believed their human visitors came from Venus, and even Mars and Jupiter, all
of which has finally resulted in my deciding to publish some of this material
for other interested students of this exotic subject to evaluate as I have, and
to come to their own conclusions.
Here then is the first of my releases on contacts with human
beings who say they come here from what we call Venus. The next one will be
release of Lou Zinsstag's own manuscript on George Adamski titled GEORGE
ADAMSKI, THEIR MAN ON EARTH. That book may also be obtained from this
publisher. This one is published as a real original document, unedited and
unaltered in any way- from Lou Zinsstag's writing, so as to preserve as much of
her own personality in the document as possible. It is another 160 page book
like this.

George Adamski
THE SCORITON MYSTERY
In 1953, a book was published which perhaps more than any other
helped to awaken the interest of people all over the world in the coming of the
UFOs. The first part of Flying Saucers Have Landed was by Desmond Leslie
and brought into sharp focus the story of many interplanetary visits of the
past, culled from ancient sources, and many more recent observations of space
craft.
The second part of the book, by George Adamski, went even
further. He claimed to have met a messenger from Venus in the desert not far
from his home at Palomar Gardens, California. This event was witnessed by six
other people, all of whom swore affidavits to the fact. This was the first
occasion a man from Earth made contact with a man from space and published the
fact widely.
George Adamski was born in Poland on 17
April, 1891. When only
one-and-a-half years old his parents emigrated to the USA, where they
settled at Dunkirk, New York. They had a deep reverence for the wonders
of the
creation as manifested in nature which they instilled into their son.
Although
his formal schooling was short in duration, he received a vital part of
his
education through private lessons.
The five years from 1913 to 1919 Adamski served in the Army with
the 13th Cavalry on the Mexican border. In 1917 he was married to Mary A.
Shinbersky, who died in 1954. When he was nearly forty, Adamski settled down
for the first time, after much wandering. He gathered some pupils together and
became a teacher of metaphysics and philosophy.
In 1944, Adamski and some of his pupils moved
to the slopes of Mount Palomar where the world's largest telescope was
being completed. He was interested in
astronomy and spent much time studying the night sky with a six-inch
reflecting
telescope and a fifteen-inch telescope housed in a small observatory.
The
six-inch telescope was fitted with a camera with which he took pictures
of the
moon and obtained his first photographs of space craft. It was during a
meteor
shower in 1946 that he and a number of friends saw a gigantic space
craft
hovering high above a mountain ridge south of Mount Palomar, towards San
Diego. At the time the thought that it could be an interplanetary space
ship never
entered his head. That night, over the radio it was announced that
hundreds of
people had reported a large cigar-shaped space ship they had seen
hovering over
San Diego during the meteor shower. Adamski was still incredulous but a
few
days later, when a group of people were discussing the sighting with him
in a
cafe, six military officers who had been listening to the conversation
joined
in, declaring that it was not as fantastic as it sounded. 'We know
something
about this,' they said, but would not say more except that the ship they
had
seen did not belong to this world. From that day Adamski began to watch
the
skies in the hope that he might observe the amazing sight again. It was
during
the summer of 1947, when much discussion began on the flying saucer that
he was
rewarded with a sighting of several squadrons of UFOs. For many years he
spent numerous
outdoor vigils, watching for and attempting to photograph these objects.
Gradually he came to hold the opinion that what he saw and photographed
were
space ships from other planets, and longed to meet the occupants.
On 20 November, 1952, Adamski was out on one of these trips with
six of his friends, Mrs Alice K. Wells, Mrs Lucy McGuiness, Dr and Mrs George
Hunt Williamson, and Mr and Mrs Bailey. The party had set off early that
morning for an isolated spot in the desert where previous landings had been
alleged to have taken place. As they were sitting over a picnic lunch there
suddenly appeared a gigantic silvery cigar-shaped dirigible from over the
mountain ridge. It drifted soundlessly in their direction and then seemed to
hover motionless. Adamski had a hunch that the ship wanted to make contact with
him and asked two of his companions to drive him along the highway. As they did
so the great ship appeared to pace the car. They turned off into a rough track
leading to the spot where he wanted to set up his telescope and camera. Having
assembled his equip ment he asked his two companions to get back to the others
as quickly as possible and watch closely for anything that might take place.
Adamski was hoping for a picture in close-up and more detail than
he had succeeded in getting before. After a few minutes his attention was
attracted by a flash in the sky and almost instantly a beautiful, small craft
appeared to be drifting through a saddle between two of the mountain peaks and
settling silently into one of the coves about half-a-mile from him. He was
hastily taking pictures of it when it disappeared over the hill. Soon after he
caught sight of a man standing about a quarter of a mile away at the entrance
to a ravine. As Adamski approached the man a strange feeling came over him. The
stranger was somewhat smaller than himself and considerably younger. He had
long, sandy-coloured hair and wore an outfit something like a ski-suit.
Suddenly it flashed upon him that he was in the presence of a human being from
another world. The beauty of his form surpassed anything he had ever seen and
the expression on his face was exceedingly pleasant. The lengthy conversation
which followed was conducted almost entirely by gestures and a form of
telepathy, for the man seemed to know only one or two words of English. Despite
the difficulty of communication Adamski was able to deduce that the man came
from Venus, that his intentions towards earthmen were friendly and that he and
his fellow Venusians were greatly concerned with the danger of atomic
explosions on earth. The spaceman walked with Adamski to a hillock behind which
his hovering scout ship had been hidden. Adamski greatly admired its
irridescent colours but unfortunately received an electric shock which numbed his
arm when he inadvertently stepped too close to the rim of the flange. Anxious
about his exposed negatives in his pocket, he reached for them, whereupon the
visitor indicated that he would like one, promising that it would be returned.
He politely refused Adamski's request for a ride as he had to be going; and,
stepping lightly on to the craft, he sailed away.
Throughout this incident which lasted an hour, a number of
'planes had circled over the vicinity. One large B36 had appeared right over
the scene. Meanwhile, Adamski's friends had been keeping watch. They had seen
him talking to another person dressed in a brownish garment. Afterwards they
examined the two sets of footprints in the damp sand. One set, Adamski's, led
back to the road, and the other, a much smaller size, vanished where the saucer
had been hovering. George Hunt Williamson was able to make plaster casts of
these prints containing symbols which later gave rise to many attempts at
interpretation.*
* See Other Tongues, Other Flesh, by George Hunt Williamson
(Neville Spearman).
On the morning of 13 December, a sequel occurred. The saucer came
to Palomar Gardens and approached within a hundred feet of Adamski. A hand
appeared from an open porthole and dropped the same holder which the spaceman had
borrowed on 20 November. When the film was developed later the original
photograph was found to have been washed off and a strange message in
hieroglyphics substituted. On this second visit Adamski had his six-inch
telescope already set up and when the craft was within approximately two to
three thousand feet he managed to get the now famous shots of the scout ship.
It was independently photographed by Sergeant Jerrold Baker, who got a picture
as the craft flew away, quite close to the ground.
* * *
Since the publication of Flying Saucers Have Landed, claims
alleging contact with men from space have been made by numerous people, some
probably true, others undoubtedly spurious, but it is George Adamski who has
borne the brunt of the ridicule from the sceptics regarding such claims.
Perhaps this was because he was the first to reach the public eye. An added
factor is that he offered more of a challenge than anybody else in respect of
corroborative evidence. There is a schism in the ranks of ufologists. Some ardently
support Adamski's claims, others are open-minded about them. There are many
again who are committed to disbelief for various reasons. Strange cults and
pseudo-mystical movements, jumping on the flying saucer bandwagon, borrowed
heavily from Adamski's story whilst superimposing their own ideas, attributing
them to the space people The ludicrous results inevitably rebounded on Adamski,
whose story many people lumped together with the fantastic hotchpotch of
emotionally coloured, evangelical, pseudo-religious contact stories which
sprang up like mushrooms in the wake of his book.
This is another of the reasons for the fierce antagonism towards
Adamski's allegations, for it has been said that the attention they received
has been in large part responsible for the ridicule that has become associated
with the flying saucer subject, and the widespread belief that people who take
an interest in UFOs are members of the lunatic fringe. In trying to make the
subject respectable, Adamski has been pilloried by some ufologists as the main
culprit responsible for the mockery of what should be studied in all
seriousness. Although not necessarily accepting his story, many ufologists on
the other hand concede that Adamski has been invaluable in bringing the flying
saucers to the public's attention. I would agree with them myself. He has done
much to capture the imagination of people all over the globe and draw them into
a lifelong interest in these alien craft.
I must admit that I was one of them, for
prior to 1953 I had
scarcely heard of flying saucers. I had been told that they were things
Americans had seen from aeroplanes occasionally, and anything that came
out of America was highly suspect! My introduction to them really came
when I chanced to see the
review of Flying Saucers Have Landed in the Observer of 4
October, 1953. The review was a very fair one and the accompanying photograph
of the scout ship imprinted itself on my mind. Later, I discovered an article
in a back copy of the now defunct magazine Illustrated, and I confess
that it was the artist's impression of the handsome, blonde-haired Venusian
with enigmatic smile which really captivated the romantic young
thirteen-year-old I then was. I bought the book shortly afterwards and I
thought then, as I do now, that Adamski's story was convincingly told. From
that time on I had to pursue the truth about the flying saucers.
Because of the excellent photographs and the support of six
witnesses as evidence, many people either believed Adamski's remarkable story
or were at least prepared to retain an open mind. But Adamski did not stop
there. He subsequently went on to describe further contacts. Inside the
Space Ships, published in 1955, was an even more sensational book
than its
predecessor. He tells how, in February 1953, he felt a strong urge to
visit Los Angeles. After booking in at a small hotel where he was fairly
well known he mooched
around waiting for—he knew not what. Suddenly he was approached by two
strange
men who addressed him by name. Though he had no idea as to their
identity he
trusted them instinctively and accompanied them to a car park where
their Pontiac was waiting. They drove him into desert country during
which time one identified
himself as a Saturnian and his companion as a Martian. They turned off
on to a
dirt road along which they drove for some time. On alighting, Adamski
noticed a
glowing saucer parked on the ground and saw his friend of the first
meeting
servicing the craft. They all four climbed into the saucer which brought
them
to a Venusian mothership lying at about the height of forty thousand
feet in
the earth's stratosphere. Here Adamski met and talked with many space
people
and had a chance to inspect the interior of the ship. From one of the
portholes
he was able to take a look at outer space and found that against the
totally
dark background innumerable flickering lights were to be seen.
The next contact was brought about in similar manner but this
time he was brought to a much larger scout ship. It was over one hundred feet
in diameter and he was informed that it came from Saturn. The mother ship to
which he was taken, a huge seven-decker affair, belonged to no one planet. It
was a universal ship manned by people of many planets and on this particular
trip there were men and women from Venus, Saturn and Mars. They worked in a
spacious laboratory from which small remote controlled monitoring discs were
sent out to gather data.
The book tells how in the next few months Adamski had more
contacts, both with the space people working here on earth and with those in
space ships. In one of these meetings he was allegedly taken to the other side
of the Moon whose image was reflected by telescope on to a screen. Contrary to
what is believed by astronomers, there was enough atmosphere on the hidden side
to support life, and he was told that temperatures were not as extreme as
supposed. Communities were observed in valleys and on mountain slopes, also
trees and a number of lakes and rivers. It is possible that these subsisted in
an artificial environment, formed in pockets on the Moon's surface.
Inside the Spaceships was more than a good
many ufologists could swallow, even if they had been able to credit the first
book. Such was the powerful evidence in favour of the first claim that whilst
disbelieving these subsequent claims, many still believed m the first contact.
The attacks were now doubled in vigour with new grounds for discrediting
Adamski, such as his statements about the Moon which were contrary to the
pronouncements of science.
Over the years a number of attempted exposés have been made but
none of these could be said to be conclusive. The supporting evidence is too
strong to be lightly dismissed on the other hand, to view of the further
evidence which has come to light and which is related in this book, I deem it
necessary to review these arguments briefly. For this purpose I have listed the
main points or criticism which have been raised in connection with the first
contact in the desert, together with the answers to them from tne defending
side.
(1) Why were not more photographs taken of the contact, in
view of the fact that in the party there were two ordinary cameras and a
cine-camera?
Mrs Bailey, one of the witnesses, was in the final stages of
pregnancy and in a very excited state at the time. The camera she and her
husband had brought was a borrowed one and they were not used to it. They took
a film, but when it was developed it was blank. About six or seven still photos
were taken by Adamski, but the plates were spoiled when he walked under the rim
of the flange of the saucer. One of these was published in the Phoenix
Gazzete, but it was very poor. Desmond Leslie has examined the negatives of
these and maintains that a saucer was faintly visible, about twenty feet in the
air and fifty yards away over the rocks.
(2) Plate 7 in Flying Saucers Have Landed was
ascribed to Sergeant Jerrold T. Baker. He has since denied he took this
picture, saying that Adamski took it and ascribed it to someone other than
himself to provide evidence.
Desmond Leslie talked to the local mayor and three other reliable
witnesses, all of whom testified that when the plates were developed Baker was
thrilled that his picture had come out, constantly drawing their attention to
it, 'Look at the one I took' sort of thing. Apparently Baker of his own free
will wrote a detailed letter 'to whom it may concern' explaining how he took
the picture. No one knows why he retracted. Perhaps some sort of pressure was
put on him to do so.
(3) The photographs of the scoutship resemble a lamp-shade.
They could be photographs of a model.
The photographs were shown to John Ford, the film director, and
Joe Mansour whose job it was to photograph model aircraft to make them look
like the real thing for illustrations in model aircraft catalogues. He has
visited Adamski and inspected his equipment. He declared that the reasons he
believed Adamski's photographs were not of models was that he thought he
himself was incapable of making a model sufficiently good from which these
photographs could be faked. It would have been extremely dangerous for him to
have attempted a fraud of this description. It was generally agreed that to
have produced a fake Adamski would have had to construct a full-sized model or
use costly equipment he obviously did not possess. Even then this would not
have assured a good result.
(4) The Moon photograph in the book has been criticised
because one of the saucers appears to be inside the telescope. When asked
about it, Adamski himself could not explain this, but Desmond Leslie inspected
the camera and the telescope and found that the two rims were not properly set
so that they did not He flush with one another. This accounted for what
appeared to be the dark curve of the moon in the wrong place. Desmond Leslie
got a similar effect when he took other photographs with the camera as a test.
(5) Why was the Baker photograph blurred when it was taken
with a Brownie which cannot be out of focus? Many genuine flying saucer
photographs are blurred which is due to the force field surrounding them
affecting the negative. Some regard the characteristic blur as one of the tests
of the genuineness of such a photograph.
(6) Why was the plaster of paris so conveniently handy at the
encounter?
George Hunt Williamson, one of the witnesses, is an
anthropologist and always carried plaster with him on his trips for
anthropological purposes.
(7) Why did the party not attract attention of passers by on
the road? Also: One of the witnesses is said to have retracted his
testimony.
The scenery there consists of low foothills which hid them from
view of the road. Al Bailey subsequently retracted his testimony, saying he
could not see anything and he was sure no one else could either—but he was in a
different place from the others. Alice Wells, Lucy McGuiness and the
Williamsons all saw Adamski talking to a man in a one-piece brown costume.
Williamson maintained that it is certain the Baileys could not have seen the
incident from where they were stationed.
(8) Alice Wells could not have drawn the picture of the
Venusian that she did; she could not have seen the man through binoculars
clearly enough to have distinguished his features. This is true, but she
could see the figure when she looked and Williamson was beside her also gazing
and advising as she drew. Adamski later advised and corrected the features
Alice Wells admits she could not see.
(9) Adamski's story was ghost written and embellished.
This is untrue. He wrote it himself but it was polished slightly
by Mrs Clara John.
(10) It is said that during the desert contact a number of
military aircraft had circled over the vicinity. Surely they would have seen
and reported the presence of a UFO in the area? The Hon. Brinsley le Poer
Trench possesses a photostat copy of a letter on file written from Project Blue
Book admitting that a UFO was over Desert Centre on 20 November, 1952. This was
a report filed by US Air Force pilots over the area on that day.
* * * *
A few months after Flying Saucers Have Landed came
out the
sceptics were faced with explaining away a piece of corroborative
evidence
which was both remarkable and unexpected. To date, no satisfactory piece
of
explaining away has ever been adduced. On the morning of 15 February,
1954, a thirteen-year-old boy, Stephen Darbishire, had a persistent
nagging feeling prompting him to
go up the hill behind his house at Coniston in Lancashire. He climbed
the hill
with his eight-year-old cousin, Adrian Mayer, and took with him a little
Kodak
camera, hoping they might get some good photographs of birds or scenes.
While
they were walking on the hill Adrian suddenly slapped Stephen on the
back to
draw his attention to a queer shining object which was drifting slowly
downwards from a gap in the clouds. It descended into a dip between the
hills
and it could not have been more than a hundred yards away as Stephen
quickly
took two photographs of it. As the flying saucer flew off it went out of
the
sun's rays and he noticed it was made of a 'plastic-like metal which
light
could travel through but I could not see through it'. What he meant to
say was
that it was translucent. It had a cabin showing four portholes in a row
and a
three-ball undercarriage; the bottom came nearly to a point. Except for
the
swish as it went away, it was completely soundless.
Adamski described his saucer thus: 'It was a beautiful small
craft shaped more like a heavy glass bell than a saucer. Yet I could not see
through it any more than one can see through the glass bricks that are popular
in some of the newer office buildings and homes, which permit more light to
enter than would solid walls. It was translucent and of exquisite colour.'
Leonard Cramp made an orthographic comparison of the Adamski
Scout photograph with that taken by Stephen Darbishire. The procedure, together
with the full story is described in his book, Space, Gravity and the Flying
Saucer. This showed that the Coniston Saucer was identical to that of
Adamski's. The integrity of Stephen Darbishire and his family is beyond
question. The question posed is: If Adamski's photograph is a fake, where did
he obtain the original on which to base his fake?
Corroborative evidence of another kind was brought to light with
the publication of a book by the French explorer Professor Marcel F. Hornet. Sons
of the Sun was first published in 1958 in German and later in
English in 1963.* It describes the discovery of symbols closely
resembling, and in some cases
identical, with those on the photographic plate Adamski received from
the
Venusian in 1952. The symbols were found among several thousands of
characters
on a huge boulder in north-eastern Brazil, known as the Pedtra Pintada.
Their
age is estimated as at least ten thousand years but more likely as
thirty
thousand years old. Adamski said that in a subsequent meeting, his
Venusian
friend told him that the messages he gave him were of a 'universal
character'.
* Published by Neville Spearman.
In his first contact, Adamski learned that large numbers of other
planets throughout the universe are inhabited, and on enquiring how many were
inhabited in our own system, the answer was given by a large round sweep of the
hand with vertical sweeps across it, implying that all of them were. He
indicated that the form of the inhabitants is more or less universal and tried
to elaborate further with more gestures, perhaps trying to say that there were
differences in size and colour, etc. This information cuts right across all
that modern astronomy has told us, although some scientists go so far as to
admit the likelihood of life of some form on our nearest planetary neighbours,
Mars and Venus. Conflicting data has been received by our scientific
instruments regarding the temperature and the atmospheric content on Venus and
some have ventured that conditions
there may not be much different from that of our own world.
However, if all our planets are inhabited there must be some radical
flaws in our knowledge, and it is not surprising that Adamski's claims should
be so unacceptable to most of the orthodox scientists.
Scientists once theorised that the major planets, Jupiter,
Saturn, Uranus and Neptune, were each a huge mass of rock overlain by a sea of
hydrogen and with an outer layer of gases visible to telescopes. Another, more
recent theory, holds that each of these planets is an enormous sphere of
hydrogen which becomes metallic towards the centre owing to the enormous
pressure exerted. Spectroscopic studies seemed to confirm that one or other of
these theories was correct. Now, however, the spectroscope is no longer
regarded as infallible and it seems that astronomers do not actually know very
much about conditions on other planets. All old assumptions may well prove
incorrect.
Despite all the official cover-ups one thing cannot be more
certain, and that is we are being visited by alien space craft, whether
they come from our system or outside it. For the last twenty years they have
been arriving in great number. Many, many different models have been observed,
although there seem to be a few basic types such as the 'mother ships' or
carrier craft (which are generally cylindrical or cigar-shaped), circular
'scout ships' (flying saucers), and small remote controlled devices. An
increasing number of well-attested cases arc brought to notice in which
landings and the occupants were seen. The saucer people vary a great deal in
size and superficial characteristics but with very few exceptions they are
reported as human or humanoid in appearance. These sightings confirm Adamski
on that point at least, for with the great variety of types of craft and the
differences in their personnel we are obviously being visited not only by the
people of one planet but several different planets, even allowing for racial
differences such as we have on our own world.
If Adamski is right and some of these people arrive from systems
beyond our own, then it is probable that they have mastered properties of space
of which we have no knowledge. Even if we could attain the speed of light, the
time taken to reach our nearest stellar neighbour would be four and a third
years. Unless our visitors have an extremely long lifespan it seems unlikely
that they would travel many years to pay us a casual visit. There is a
prediction of the theory of relativity which states that for a moving observer
time moves slower than for an observer at rest. Controversy reigns amongst
physicists on this. Some postulate that the effect would be counteracted during
periods of acceleration and deceleration, so that a space traveller would not
return to his own planet to find his fellows more aged than himself. If time
dilation docs occur, then visits from the inhabitants of distant solar systems
would be not only feasible but probable. And how can we be sure that the speed
of light cannot be surpassed?
There can be no doubt that many alleged contactees were inspired
by Adamski and invented stories based upon bis. It is not surprising that a
number of researchers tend to look with favour only on reports of encounters
with space beings who behaved with apparent indifference or, in a few cases,
hostility. The orthodox contact, the kind in which conversations on religious,
scientific or philosophical matters are alleged to have taken place and where
the contactee seeks to publicise his story, is dismissed. Nevertheless, there
are quite a few well-attested borderline cases involving ordinary people when
they were quite unprepared for a contact; in these cases the witnesses do not
seek publicity, indeed, they frequently try to avoid it. Their reaction is
often one of annoyance or puzzlement. Take the following example, reported by
three separate witnesses, none of whom wanted to give their names. It occurred
on 20 July, 1956, in Panorama City, California, near Los Angeles.
The first was a housewife who saw a tremendous object shaped like
a ball land near her house. Three occupants emerged. Each was about six foot
eight inches in height, wearing a tight green suit and with long blonde hair
hanging down to the shoulders. They told her they were from Venus and would not
harm her, but she thought it was some kind of stunt for a movie company and
told them to get off her property.
Only a few minutes later, in nearby Van Nuys, a telephone lineman
was startled by an enormous ball landing only about a foot from the pole on
which he was working ... 'I was so scared that I felt like getting on top of the
pole, but instead I got down and started to inspect the huge ball. Just then
three guys walked right through the ball and came toward me.' The men were very
friendly and shook his hand. They seemed to be holding some kind of mental
communication among themselves,' he continued, 'but they spoke with their
mouths to me.'
Yet another witness was startled when the UFO landed on his front
lawn and the three occupants started toward him. The dogs kept barking so
loudly that they apparently became frightened and left. They just got in the
ball and vanished.'
* * * * *
To the delight of his protagonists, Adamski's description of
outer space was apparently verified by the observations of astronauts as they
orbited the Earth. In Inside the Spaceships he says:
'I was amazed to see the background of space is totally dark. Yet
there were manifestations taking place all around us, as though billions upon
billions of fireflies were flickering everywhere, moving in all directions as
fireflies do.'
On his trip through space on 20 February, 1962, Colonel John
Glenn, one of the first American astronauts, had this to say: These little
green things that I thought (at first) to be stars were actually a bright
bluish green, about the size and intensity of a firefly on a really dark night.
These little particles were about eight to ten feet apart, and there were
literally thousands of them.'
It is debateable whether Glenn's description tallied with
Adamski's in every respect. Whilst his description of them cannot prove he was
ever in space, they are certainly a point in his favour. In all, there is no proof
that Adamski was telling the truth, only circumstantial evidence, nor, on
the other hand, is there proof that he was not. There is no gainsaying
the fact that he stuck to his story throughout the years, in the midst of
ridicule and scorn on the one side and all-believing adulation on the other.
I never met Adamski personally and have only heard tape
recordings of his lectures. Not being able to claim first-hand knowledge of
what he was like as a person, I can only judge him by what others have said.
Although on the whole people flocked to his lectures, he was by no means his
best on the public platform. His thick accent and general approach tended to
shock English audiences in particular. By temperament he was impetuous and
intolerant of those who disputed with him, as might be expected of one
fanatically aware of his own truthfulness. Many complained that he would not
give a direct answer to a direct question. Those who met him found he had a
charming, compelling personality. Although perhaps convinced of his sincerity,
some would prefer not to commit themselves to belief in his stories, saying, by
way of compromise, 'he had an experience'. For many he did not live up to their
ideas of what a chosen contactee should be like; expecting a superman or a
saint, disappointedly they found instead a human being with human failings. He
liked to enjoy himself and despised ascetism. He was a heavy smoker and liked a
strong drink, but this does not mean to say he was an alcoholic; that was just
a vicious smear eagerly seized upon by his emotionally biased opponents. Every
night he would partake of an old Polish health remedy consisting of about a
third of a tumbler of neat whisky with pepper in it. He needed only three or
four hours sleep at night, yet he had the energy of a man half his years.
Perhaps this was due to the old Polish health remedy.
The news of George Adamski's sudden death on 24 April, 1965,
carried in the late flash of the May/June issue of Flying Saucer Review, came
as a shock and not without a touch of sadness to a great many saucer fans,
whatever their views on his claims may have been. One might have supposed that
the controversy surrounding this colourful figure would gradually fade away and
be forgotten. When I read Desmond Leslie's obituary in the next issue of Flying
Saucer Review I paid very little attention to the last paragraph, it
sounded too wishful and unlikely. But that ending was only to be the beginning
of this story.
'We shall miss George. Miss him very much, but I cannot feel sad
at bis going. He gave his utmost to the work and the world will never be quite
the same place again, richer for his coming, a little poorer for his going. But
I don't believe we have seen the last of him. If he is reborn on another planet
he has promised to come back and contact us when possible.
'With George anything could happen. And usually does!
'Dear old Space Man—Go in Peace!'

APPENDIX II
The Mitchell Sisters' Report
Among others who have claimed contact with extraterrestrial human
beings who say they come from Venus are the Mitchell sisters from Texas.
Helen and Betty Mitchell were told that they had been watched
from a very early age and were in a sense guided in their development to
adulthood when their first conscious contacts with these watchers began. We are
very familiar with this pattern now, but in the 1950s when these events were
taking place this kind of preparation was unheard of and was thus rejected by
most researchers and all the organized UFO dubs.
Conditions were then much as they are now. We fear what we do not
understand and we attack the unknown out of a lack of knowledge. If we were a
little better informed we would see the foolishness of our attacks.
Now our science tells us that we can not perceive any sign of
human habitation on the Venus we see with our instruments. The extremely high
surface temperatures and the excessively high pressures at ground level are
simply too hostile for physical life as we know it.
But is physical life as we know it the only intelligent life in
our solar system, or elsewhere? We are told by students of metaphysics, and
even by various extraterrestrial visitors, that there is life everywhere, in
different degrees of manifestation. They say that the life wave on Venus exists
in a level of vibration different from ours and is only perceivable by us when
the Venusians slow their rate of vibration down to match ours. They tell us
that there is a life wave of hunan beings in evolution on Mars also but that it
vibrates at a different rate fro ours and that of the Venusians as well. They
both nave to control their natural vibrations into ours to interact directly
with us.
Here then is a brief description of the Mitchell sisters' contacts
with Venusian visitors as taken from a platform lecture in 1959 and published
by the late Gray Barker.
This report is offered in support of the contacts described in
the text of this book.

An Address Delivered by Helen Mitchell at
the Buck Nelson Convention June 28, 1959
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Since many of you have never heard our story before it would
hardly be proper for us to go into a lengthy discussion of what the Space
people have told us without first telling you how we came to meet the Brothers.
Two years ago, in May of 1957, Betty and I
were in a downtown St. Louis coffee shop. We had been shopping and had
stopped off to get a coke and refresh
ourselves. While in the coffee shop we were approached in a very
mannerly way
by two gentlemen dressed in grey suits, who managed to interrupt into
our
private conversation. As they spoke to us we found that they were from a
huge
mother-craft orbiting the planet Earth, and that their names were Elen
and
Zelas. They told us that we had been very closely watched by the Space
People
for the last eight years, and that our progress had been noted off and
on from
the time of our birth. Betty and I were both inclined to think that
someone was
playing a silly joke on us and we laughed when they told us this, but
they were
not laughing and were serious and stern. We were strangely shocked;
however,
when they told us of a few incidents in our childhood that no one could
have
possibly known excepting the family. They told us that we had been
selected as
contacts by the people of space to serve as channels through which they
could
give certain information to Earth, and that we had been carefully
watched, as I
stated before. They told us of the reasons why the space people were
coming to
Earth and that they were here to guide Earth along the lines of
Brotherhood and
Science. We were very much amazed at their words, and we noted
particularly the
kindness and warmth that shone in their eyes. With a single glance from
them we
seemed to sense the vast wisdom and brotherhood which they must have
lived
among. After talking with us for a little over two hours they left and
told us
they would contact us again, but it was not until a week later that we
were
impelled to again return to the same coffee shop.
When we entered the door we again saw one of the Space Brothers,,
and he gave us instructions at that time for building a device whereby we could
contact the Space People. His instructions were expilict and precise, for he
warned us that unless we placed every piece of the device in the proper place
we would not be able to contact them with it. We were not allowed to take the
drawn diagram of the device with us, but we had to remember it as it was
explained to us. When we obtained the proper pieces for the device we
constructed it when we returned home, and were happy to find the results were
satisfactory. We were amazed when we tuned in on the mother craft and spoke
with the same person we had earlier seen. We were also allowed to speak with
the commander of the craft, who at that time was known as Alna. In the
following six months we spoke many times with the space people through the
device, and received much information about their homes, sciences and craft.
In November of '57 I was alone in downtown
St. Louis on business
when I was again contacted by the space people and at their request went
with
them by automobile into Illinois where we drove to a heavily wooded
area.
There, I was told, was where they landed when they had business or
contacts to
make in St. Louis. Settled back behind an old barn was a circular craft
that I
judged to be approximately 9 feet in height, and about 38 feet in
diameter. It had a domed top, but no portholes. The sliding door was
open and there was a
uniformed operator sitting at the controls. I was nervous although I
knew no
harm would come to me, and I was visibly shaking, but Zelas only smiled
as
though to reassure me. The flight to the mother craft took approximately
15
minutes, and I was told the magnetism of the small craft would not
affect my
watch since it would be balanced by the magnetism of my own body.
However,
while in the mother craft the magnetism of it caused my watch to stop,
and it
was de-magnetized in a small machine before I left
Inside the mother craft we entered the huge receiving room for
the smaller craft. There were many huge machines in this room, and there were
also many other uniformed men standing around obviously working upon the
machines or moving them about. They glanced at us when we entered, but then
returned to their work as before. The hall that we entered was softly lit and
was curved both at the ceiling and corners. We entered the first room to the
right which apoeared to be a room for relaxing. There were divans and contoured
chairs with white upholstering that had a thread or design of a golden hue
woven in it. The room was meticulous and vast, and as I stood observing the
beauty of it three uniformed men approached us. Their uniforms were of a
blue-gray color with a slight metallic look, and I learned the jodphur type
boots they wore were actually attached to the uniforms, and were not a separate
piece of apparel. The uniforms were soft to the touch and the texture of
velvet. I was then introduced to the three men and learned that the one was
Alna, the commander of all craft operation upon Earth. Alna spoke with a very
heavy accent, and was much darker than any of the others. His skin had a high
bronze tint to it, as compared with the lighter complexions of the others.
From this room I was shown the control section where I was told
our calls were received when we operated our device. Here they placed a call
through to our telephone in St. Louis by adjusting a series of dials, and I was
allowed to speak with Betty and tell her that I was with the Brothers. I was
also shown a scope similar to a television screen, the only difference being
this was at a slight elevation on the control counter, instead of standing up
at eye level or in a box type cabinet which our television sets consist of.
This scope could obviously reflect any particular building or house that the
space people desired to observe, and when I looked at the scope when Alna
requested me to do so, I could see the inside areas of my home and could see my
sister, mother and the children moving about. It was as though the entire roof
had been removed and only the walls remained of the house. When I asked them
how this was done, they explained that the first set of vibrations that left
the roof were erased and the vibrations of the furniture and people inside were
received on the scope, and therefore it appeared as though the instruments in
the control section were actually looking through the building.
From this section we entered another much larger control section
and I watched other uniformed men working about their work with much deftness
and swiftness. I was told then that we were going to dine, and when we entered
the dining area it appeared as a vast empty room. However, tables and chairs
rose from the floor section, and I dined with them after humbly and
respectfully listening to a prayer Alna said in the Universal Tongue. The food
consisted of three different types, and a drink similar to apricot nectar was
enjoyed. There was little conversation during the meal, and when all had almost
finished Alna told me I could witness a dance performed by two of the Space
Brothers. This dance was most unusual and fast, during which the two men passed
a small object from one to the other, sometimes throwing it in the air and
catching it before it fell upon the floor. I expressed my thanks to Alna for
allowing me to see this, and when we left the dining area we moved down the hall
to what obviously was an entertainment room where the Brothers spent many
relaxing hours. Many men were in the room, some sitting at tables and others
playing a game similar to our Shuffleboard. I was asked if I would like to try
the game, and after watching Alna I understood simply how it was done. A round
colored disc about 4 inches in diameter was placed on the floor in a particular
square, and by mind power alone the disc was to move across the floor to
another particular square. This section of the floor was electrically charged
and receptive to the thought waves leaving a person's mind. Alna took a blue
disc that was handed to him and placed it on the floor causing it to move a
considerable distance. Then I was handed a red disc and asked to try. I was
doubtful if it would work for me, and the only thing I could think of was to
silently command the disc to "Go." I was amazed when the disc moved
slowly up the floor, but quite some distance from that of Alna's. When I
glanced at my watch and noticed it had stopped, it brought Alna's attention and
he said for this time he felt I should not be held up longer from my other
activities, and that a second trip would be longer. It was then that he took my
watch and placed it in a small machine in the first control section and then
set it for me, obtaining the proper time from a scope that contained many
symbols and crossed lines on it. Then with Zelas and Benen I returned to the
craft receiving room and entered again a smaller craft with them. I do not know
exactly what series of air locks the craft enter and leave the mother craft,
but there was a large dark section upon the floor in the receiving room and as
we entered the smaller craft to leave Zelas pointed it out and told me that was
area where the craft left. The trip back was quick and short, and as we drove
back to St. Louis I recounted in my mind all the things I had seen. Being
alone, I wanted to be able to tell anyone else as much as I could; however, we
decided that we would not then tell anyone else of our experiences until we had
enough information to relay to the public. Last year at Buck's Convention we
were called upon to speak, but we were neither prepared nor expecting that we
would be called upon for a speech. I did, however, say a few words and since
that time we have delivered several lectures to various groups.
A few weeks ago we were contacted by the Brothers and were told
that the Martian Council had requested us to speak of the powerful effects of
the A and H bombs and also the future of those responsible for it's evil. When
we were told these requests we asked for information to give Earth's people,
and the following is what they have given us, and was prepared by one of the
Brothers known as Sigt. I will go directly into his message and then would like
to take up a subject that many people have questioned us about—such subjects as
evil flying saucers and evil space people, also strange phenomena that seem to
defy natural law will be spoken of. Now, I would like to give you Sigt's message:
"Earth's scientists are creating around planet Earth the
most deadly condition to material man than ever before. The explosions of the A
and H bombs are placing the residue particles of radioactivity into all the
materials of Earth. Each human being upon Earth now carries a certain degree of
radioactivity in their bones and systems. Why should it be significant to hear
of this when you cannot see the radioactivity, nor hear it as it does much
destructive work? In the advanced laboratories of Mars we have proved the
destructibility of such uncontrolled energy. Radioactivity drops, upon the
grass, buildings and people after being carried by the air currents around an
explosion. This energy is in minute particles that have the effects of
deterioration to the molecules of all material things. This radioactivity
settles around an object or body and penetrates the outer area of the surface
or skin. What does radioactivity look like, you may wonder. As an explanation,
many of you have seen small dust spirals along the streets or in a dusty area
that swirl around and around in circles that then seem to disappear.
Radioactivity has the same effect and looks very similar as it settles around a
body. The small particles are caught up in a swirling counter-clockwise motion
that causes it to be driven down into the surface of the body cells. This
energy, once inside the body, offsets the balance of the normal cell and causes
it to become either agitated into more activity as it tries to cast back out of
the system this radioactivity, or else the radioactivity attacks cells that are
already weakened by illness, and immediately sets up a destruction of them.
When this new activity occurs in a normal cell a powerful microscope would
reveal the atomical structure of the cell is creating a counter offensive
action that is clockwise as compared to the counter-clockwise motion of the
radioactivity. When this occurs, there is eventually a breaking down of the
cell's motion, for as the explosions of the A and H bombs continue the action
of the radioactivity is strengthened by this and overpowers the clockwise
motion of the body cells that are attempting to throw off the radioactivity.
Thus, the body cells are forced to become activated in the same manner. This
creates a drawing together or construction of the cells and creates abnormal
conditions and illnesses. As the radioactivity increases the rate of motion
increases around each body living on Earth. This changes the cell formation and
in the next generation this inherent condition is accentuated by the
accumulated mass of more radioactivity. In the second and third generations
these changes are visible as definite deformations of the body, and this in
turn, if not controlled, will lead to a generation of mutants.
What does radioactivity sound like? I will try to explain. Many
people are receptive to certain high vibratory sounds that are derived from the
atomic explosions, and are the elemental changes in the atmospheres of Earth.
These high pitched sounds are very serious, for they can almost pierce the very
soul consciousness, and cause changes there. The consciousness of Man is being
affected every day by these vibrations that these explosions have created, and
unless these are altered or until the explosions of this nature are stopped the
Mind of Man will be changed in drastic measures. Some of these notes can cause
a perfectly healthy person to develop a fatal illness, some can affect the
mental processes terribly, other of these vibrations, if not altered within the
consciousness of the individual, can cause one to commit acts that otherwise
would not be done. But most serious indeed are the changes in the atomical
structures of the atmospheres of Earth. Here the greatest battle of all is
arising. The Earth wants to separate with this activity, but the
consciousnesses of the higher evolved here upon Earth and in Space are
preventing this, until Earth can adjust.
How can you stop this from happening? The answer is simply stop
the unnecessary tests of these bombs. For those who maintain it is necessary to
show the military strength, we can only say what strength is there to be shown
that deprives the people, vegetation and animals of a perfectly beautiful and
attainable future otherwise. Is it truly possible that the deceivability of
such destructive weapons can replace sane, sound actions of better living? It
is necessary now for the Space People living upon Earth to take protective
measures or otherwise suffer the same effects from radio activity as the
citizens. It is not possible for us to give Earth's people enough of the
protectors without the co-operation of the governments, and such co-operation
is at present unattainable. The continuance of these tests are affecting all
responsible for them, and if one accepts reincarnation as an answer it would be
definitely seen why no one here or responsible for these tests would want to
re-live again in mutated bodies of the future generations. If reincarnation be
unacceptable to the average person, then the knowledge that these tests are mutating
their children and their children's children should be sufficient reason for
stopping them. Our warning to Earth is cease your tests and save your
future."
What the Space People are trying to make
clear in this message
and many others similar to this is that Earth is now in a most perilous
situation, and faces self-destruction of humanity. In the two years we
have
contacted the Brothers they have been concerned and talked most
frequently
about the destructibility of the A and H bomb. Speaking of this
destruction,
the questions I mentioned earlier come to my mind, and that is
concerning the
evil flying saucers and evil space people. First, we must consider the
evidence
presented. There have been saucers that were reported as having a
negative
effect upon people by burning them or causing nausea, etc. And in some
instances there have been cases reported where people have been
assaulted by
beings that have emerged from some saucers and actually attacked them.
The
descriptions of these beings have been generally of a small type of
people who
were unusually crafty or mischievous and who actually grasp the person
and
attempted to drag them into their craft. Where do these beings come
from, and
why are they entering this system? No doubt most of you will agree there
is a
tremendous battle going on between the good and the bad, which concerns
all
thoughts, actions and influences. From thousands of years ago to the
present
age this battle between right and wrong has been waged against
civilization and
has balanced first in favor of the good and right-ous, and then turning
and
swaying in favor of the wicked or evil. This strange course of events
has been
necessary for certain conditions to prevail upon Earth, so that
beneficial
results would come about. The devastating bubonic plague that swept
England in the dark ages was indeed a terrible thing and was judged to
be just that by the
people, but this negative condition actually paved the way for more
sanitary
conditions. All evil will give way to the good, and all wrong has a
right. The
space people that have negative qualities about them are coming from
farther
space systems, although I do not wish to imply that all space craft from
farther systems is evil. Many of the craft from farther systems are very
good
and are trying to also help Earth; however, it is only those certain
evil
systems that we should consider when I say those from a farther system
than our
own. It is these negative beings who are here for the purpose of
actually
taking people from Earth to indoctrinate them with their ideas, so they
in turn
will cause confusion and disturbances upon the planet. The true purpose
behind
this is to prevent harmony and peace, for they are in alliance with
those
beings living in Earth, who themselves will be forced to leave Earth
when peace
and brotherhood is completed. The gains that these negative people
obtain from
their alliance with those other negatives in Earth is not known by us,
but it
must be quite profitable for them to engage so actively against the
Space Brothers
who are trying to help Earth. The Space Brothers who are trying to help
Earth
have to contend with these craft and beings from other less desirable
systems,
and also have to contend with the disbelieving masses of people who
either do
not know of the need for harmony and peace or those who do not want to
listen
to their urgent requests. The job of the Space Brothers is not easy, for
it is
necessary to prepare the people of Earth to accept their existence, and
also to
guide them in proper understanding so that peace and co-existence will
be
possible.
Many people seem to feel that the negative beings are only from
planet Earth and consists only of those fallen angels who were cast out of
heaven by a Supreme Command from the Most High. Many can quote the proper
passages of the Bible and prove that there are fallen angels living here on
Earth, who cause the necessary confusion and evil which we here must live
among. There are those intelligences of superior powers whom we would call
fallen angels living in Earth, but it is not wholly from them that the evil or
bad flying saucers come. As you look up into the sky at night you see
multitudes of stars, planets and suns moving on in beautiful orbits. However,
if you could move out through space and watch the barbarious conditions that
exist upon some of these stars you would be shocked. There are some systems
advanced in scientific accomplishments to the degree of mastery over space, and
these systems are those who have advanced in science alone and who have little
spiritual advancement. They come here to Earth and to other planets in farther
systems to form alliance with those intelligences who will provide them the
necessary fulfillment of their evil desires and wishes. Planet Earth is now
visited by such craft, whose occupants live and profit from the unrest and
disharmony present. Who can truly say what percent of our actions are fueling
these being with necessary materials and profit. What these profits are cannot
be said by us, for only each one of us in his own understanding could know in
Truth what their actions consist of that could be used as a fuel by the
negative ones. These negatives can present very good arguments and can deceive
the unwary in many ways. Their goal is to conquer and own, without any concern
how they do it. They may use one form of attraction one time and another the
next. Now, how, you probably think, do we know about this. I can only say that
many times, more than we have recorded or remembered, we have been interrupted
in our attempts to contact the Brothers by means of our device, and then
encounter the beamed transmission of a negative craft. In many instances these
beings have mocked our efforts and have belittled the Brothers and us. Other
times they have lied and said they were the M-4 Section of Mars and they had a
message for us from the Council, and that we were to say such-and-such or else
we were to stop speaking altogether. Patience is a good way to win with their
persistence, for they cannot persist too long without getting angry and
revealing themselves. Once we were interrupted by them and told flatly who they
were and what they wanted us to do. They asked us to prepare a book for them
and expose the whole untruth connected with the story of the fallen angels.
This book was to be delivered by one of their very advanced minds, and to be
created in manuscript form by us and offered for publication. Please notice
that I said this book was to be done in this manner at their request. We
refused to do as asked by them, and burned the first few sections of their
story when it was delivered to us. From that time up to the present we have
been interrupted only occasionally, and then their attitudes have not been
quite as demanding. We refuse to have anything to do with this type of beings
and wish to serve only those of goodness and light.
The subject of negative beings can be connected directly with
much unusual phenomena that seems to be completely contrary to natural law.
However, nothing can defy the absolute laws that God created, but many of these
laws are simply not known nor understood by millions of people. The percentages
of people who can manipulate these laws is very few. As said before, many
beings of a negative nature do live in Earth, and there are some of these who have
the power to do unusual things. Many times strange phenomena have been noted to
take place, such as objects moving freely in the air; articles appearing and
disappearing; solid objects passing through walls, door, etc. The number of
unusual happenings are numberless. Many of these happenings are due to the
mischievous minds of negative beings, who merely change the molecular polarity
of the structure of an object and cause it to pass through the air as though
defying gravity. Truly such an object is moving freely through space, but only
due to the natural law of gravity. If an object such as a glass contains the
positive polarity of mass, then the earth below it is of a negative polarity.
Merely by changing the positive polarity of the glass to a negative polarity it
will cause the glass to push away from the earth which is also of a negative
polarity. The law of a magnet can be applied to this simple demonstration, for
"Like polarities repel, and unlike polarities attract." Two negative
polarities will push away from each other, whereas two polarities of different
natures will cling to each other. Thus, gravity, or more simply said, polarity
controls such unusual demonstrations. It does, however, take a very great Will
Power to command such objects to move. Nothing can be done outside of natural
law misapplied power and nonsense must still obey the laws of God, for nothing
can be outside of His Laws. An important thing, however, is that not all
unusual happenings are the result of negative beings, but much of it is
unknowingly set into motion by the minds of Earth people, who happen to set
into motion the law of polarity and gravity.
I would like at this time to dispense with the subject of
negative things, and like to direct your thoughts to something of a more
affirmative nature. I would like to give you a little of the prophecy for Earth
that the Brothers gave us. However, at no time do the Space People or Betty and
I want you to think that these prophecies are definitely what will happen to
Earth. The Brothers told us that these things would happen only if Earth
follows the parth of advancement that she had been doing before the explosions
of so many bombs. These explosions could alter these conditions very much, for
as the Brothers said, these explosions are altering the atmospheres and
materials for Earth. It is from man's past actions and advancement that these
prophecies are dervied from, and it is from this that the future is formed.
Thus prophecy can change and 10 years from now these same prophecies could be
wrong, but only if Earth's people continue with the A and H bomb explosions and
if a series of serious battles and conflicts result upon Earth.
As for the prophecies themselves, the Space
People tell us that
Earth will have an axis change, and that this will cause America to
become warmer and certain parts of Europe to become colder. This axis
change should come
about slowly and be a gradual thing, and will be if nature is left
alone;
however, there are certain people who wish to bring about this change
too
quickly. As for the manner of clothes people will be wearing upon Earth
in the
future we will see that the men will wear clothes that have a tighter
fit,
wheras the women will wear looser and longer dresses. The homes will
change
with the circular home being preferred. There will be a screened dome
top to
the homes, which will open to let in the air. Lighting will be from the
walls
and a circular rim around the ceiling. This lighting will be automatic
and
adjust itself to the proper brightness. All power for the kitchen,
laundry,
heating and lighting will be provided by small individual unts in each
home
that is inexpensive to operate. The countryside will be beautiful, for
all
wires, telephone poles and power stations will disappear, along with the
billboards and other unsightly scenes. The entire mind of man will
enlarge in
spiritual growth, for unmoral books, shows and entertainments will be
revised
to teach Truth. Television will be the greatest channel for Truth to
reach the
minds of the people. As the mind of man changes to higher thoughts, so,
too,
will much of the material requirements change. And it will come to pass
when
the dietary habits of man will also change. No longer will slaughter
houses be
seen, for the eating of meat will diminish. It will not entirely
disappear, but
the vast slaughter of animals will cease. Earth will cease to have
epidemics of
disease, and therefore newer systems of laboratories will appear.
Illness
itself will be are individual thing, and will be corrected, quickly and
safely
in the laboratories. What more can we ask for, for doesn't this sound
like
Earth could be a beautiful place? There is more—much more—but time does
not
permit me to enlarge on all the prophecies for Earth. Among the many
things to
happen Earth will also have space flight, and will enjoy the
companionship of
the Space People. When Earth has risen to this height of advancement
space
flight will become a common thing, and Earth's people will then perhaps
go out
and serve other less fortunate planets, just as the Space People are
serving
Earth now.
There are only a few more things I would like to mention and they
are concerning a question which has been asked of us. A few months ago Betty
and I announced that we were publicly withdrawing from actively speaking. But
since that time an erronious idea has sprung up that perhaps we had been
shut-up by the Three Men in Black. We would like to clarify this, for we have
not been visited by anyone who threatened us, and we were temporarily
withdrawing from the saucer field for personal reasons. These reasons were due
to certain changes we were going to make, and one was due to the fact that I
was going to leave for France. However, different plans have been formed and I
am not going to leave for France; therefore, we will be available at times for
lectures and speeches.
For those of you who would like a little more definite account of
our first meeting with the Brothers and more details of my visit to the
mother-craft, we have several mimeographed copies of two speeches that were
delivered in Kansas City at the UFO Study Club. These speeches include
information of the Brothers and also descriptions of a Martian city. If you
would desire a copy of these from us they may be had at a small charge of 50c
each.
In closing my speech I would like to publicly thank the Space
people who have given us much information and I also thank you, Ladies and
Gentlemen, for your time.

An Address Delivered by Betty Mitchell at
the Buck Nelson Convention, June 28, 1959
This address followed the one delivered by her sister, Helen
Mitchell. Ladies and Gentlemen:
When Helen and I made our preparations to come to the Convention
we felt it would be interesting to get as much direct information as we could
from the Space Brothers, so when we contacted them we asked if there were any
definite statements they had to give us. We received a lot of informatoin from
the M-4 Section on Mars and Helen presented it in her earlier speech, but we
also contacted the planet Venus an received much interesting information from a
Venusian called Tregon. I would like to read his message for you, which we
received just a few days before we came down here, so without any further
comment at this time I will quote the message from Tregon of Venus:
"Often the revised facts of Earth's history come to our
attention, for the credibility of the human mind is filled with much
misrepresentations. As our sciences developed on Venus we were able to devise
machines capable of picking up the past actions of history and by a series of
transformers create the scenes and sounds of unforgotten history. Many scenes
that have been completed on Planet Earth have been viewed, and it is with
understanding that we realize the means of recording for Earthman were
inadequate. Barriers of language and habits prevent the interpreters of knowing
what ancient man meant by his words and phrases which he left as a record of
his deeds and actions. Languages that have long since ceased being spoken or
learned create much of the present man's difficulty in comprehending what his
ancestors meant by certain symbols and figures. The present stage of man cannot
possibly know what was in the thoughts of the ancient man, who left as a record
chipped symbols and signs upon rock and marble. The dead languages of the past
create the insurmountable barrier, for it was thus the purpose and plan of the
Creator to prevent the understanding of certain tribes. When the decree was
given to have the tribes split and the languages differ upon Earth it was for the
purpose of veiling the darkness from the untrained mind of the evolving souls
living on Earth. Thus the sealing up of ignorance and the fallen angels began.
As history proceeded the decrees of those possessing the wisdom
of darkness grew until they recorded much false history that glorified their
deeds. The sons and daughters of man had learned the wisdom of entering heaven,
but falsely used the illumination they gained and instead of living according
to the proper laws they built and obtained material creations to satisfy their
bodes. Thus the spiritual advancement of man was prevented from properly
developing, and the decree of severance and chaotic though filled the Earth.
Much time passed before this was completed, for it was from Venus that the messengers
came to start these changes. Changes came and flooded the Earth and the
separation of people began. Through these many years the Greek civilization
came and passed, leaving it's imprint with the only means of communication
known then, but those of different language found they could not comprehend
what the ultimate motive for certain symbols was and as the vast civilization
of the Greeks fell into obscurity so, too, did the true meaning of their
records. Roman history came also and then left, along with the Egyptian rulers
and people; but none of this history is known today in it's true sense. The
language barriers are definite and profoundly confusing to the minds of man who
tries to surmount them. Earth man was thus protected from himself by this severance
of language, for the wisdom of some historical periods and people would have
been destructive. Those people who came to Earth, being sent by the Creator in
His wisdom, served to prolong the advancement of man and his material
creations, for it was known that Earth man could create anything then that his
imagination would reveal. Earth man had reached an evolutionary cycle where he
responded to the intellectual flash of creation that was bom from his mind. He
could see mental images of vast material creations inspired by the elevation of
his thoughts, and in disobedience to his spiritual growth he sought to satisfy
this and create similar effects. Knowing the effects this would have upon the
development of his mind the messengers of Venus came to prevent the
destructibility of man. The True Creator was no longer exemplified in man's
mind, for it became filled with the material wonders devised in his
imagination. The centuries of advancement that Venus had, before, Earth knew
the trend of man's feet, placed her people in a position to see the evil that
Earth was committing. Those wicked people who, during the rise of Earth's own
civilizations, had been cast down to Earth were creating monarchies of slavery
of Earthman. This time in Earth's history was during the Atlantean period, and
the separation of Earth man's minds was decreed to take place. Those from Venus
came, and gave warning to the faithful of Earth, who, unlike the other
Atlanteans, followed the laws of the Most High. The story of a man called Noah,
in your Holy Book, was one of the faithful who survived this cleansing of
Earth. Those unfaithful of Earth who followed the fallen angels were deprived
of their powers to control by the division of the Universal Tongue. No longer
could one language be understood by another, for the different ones of faith
who were saved created various dialects and interpretations at the guidance of
the messengers.
As a means of preserving their might and power the Atlanteans
wrote upon stone tablets and inlaid their writings in marble slabs thinking men
in the future would look upon his recordings and wonder at their power. Now,
their magnificent temples and homes lay beneath the ocean in obscurity, lost
ever to the minds of man. The tongues of the Earth are many and varied, for not
even two people of the same tongue use exactly the same phrases. It is possible
for those of the same tongue to understand each other's ideas and words, but
when one interprets the language of another into their language some of the
true meaning is lost. This is the diversion of the tribes of man as decreed by
the Creator. In the age of the Atlanteans the evils of Earth were multiplied by
the Evil ones who fled from the exploded planet called Lucifer, and who created
the same evil on Earth as they had created on their planet. False worships grew
and multiplied on Earth at their direction, and the fallen angels of Lucifer
lead astray many of Earth's inhabitants. Seeing this, the wise ones of Venus
came to Earth in their craft. Earthmen called these craft
"fiery-chariots," and a "wheel inside a wheel," other names
given to the craft of Venus by Earthmen has been a "cloud."
The years of Atlantis were spent by a growth of intelligent
comprehension in man, and it was through this growth that man's eyes became
open to the evils around him. He no longer lived in a world of innocence and
obedience, but the people began to follow the evil influences that the fallen
ones of heaven had brought with them. Earth was then polluted, and as a new
cycle of change in the heavens began the wise ones of Venus came to Earth to
warn all to repent, but many did not follow their guidance. Being wholly
instructed by the Most High Council the Venusians who came to Earth told the
faithful to leave for certain areas, and thus the Bible tells of only the one
story of a man called Noah, who with his family built a means of sustaining the
change which was to come to Earth. The wicked and evil ones died in the axis
change and cataclysms that occured, while the faithful were saved by proper
warning according to the order of the Most High.
Again now, we watch Earth follow the path of Atlantis. Terrible
releasing of energy in bombs is creating your Earth into a place of desolution.
Plants and animals are being scourged by it, and soon even the water will
become undrinkable due to the radioactivity of these bomb releases. Our help
can only come after a certain length of time has lapsed from the one cataclysm
to the next. We can offer our warnings, and guide those who are faithful to certain
areas, but we cannot ourselves move to stop the tests of the bombs. Earthman
brings upon himself unnecessary tribulation. The question of another major war
is asked many times by Earth people, and we say that there must not be another
war. The Truth in your Holy Book will come to pass, for we see again the evil
works Earth does and the Most High Council can rule at any time upon the
necessary actions. We repeat, we cannot intervene in your bomb tests, for the
will of Earthman must be fulfilled; so, too, must the Law and if such evil
actions of man do not change we will lift the chosen people to watch from afar
the rest of Earth's woes. Let those who have ears to hear, let them hear."
Signed, Tregon of Venus.
I have a few comments to make concerning this message from Tregon
of Venus, for I was very much interested in knowing of the rise of Earth's
earlier civilizations, particularly the Atlantean. Many people have asked us of
this phase in Earth's history and so it was natural that we would prefer to obtain
the Space Brothers' opinion. So many really important facts are contained in
Tregon's words that I would like to draw your attention to a few in particular.
At the first of his message he said, "... the human mind is
filled with much misrepresentation." Then he went on to say how false
history is accredited to this misrepresentation, and he explained why this came
about. We all know that much of the facts in our history books are based only
on a few records and that these could have been hurriedly and falsely written
or transcribed. The plain truth that any of the ancient languages cannot be
completely understood today is due to the fact that the human mind is divided
in it's wisdom, and that certain knowledge then, does not prevail today.
Therefore the present mind cannot possibly understand all the phrases and
written symbols that the ancients tried to reveal in their records. Our
explorers and archaeologists are now finding and uncovering strange records and
symbols that they cannot decipher. A language of symbols was the only way to
record the Universal Tongue. The people of ancient Atlantis spoke the Universal
Tongue, and as we recall in the message of Aregon, he said that due to evil
acts the people and tribes of Atlantis were split and I quote his words,
"... it was thus the purpose and plan of the Creator to prevent the
understanding of certain tribes." We learned that the fallen angels were
the beings who lived on the planet Lucifer, that once was in an orbit between
Mars and Jupiter, and that these evil beings fell to Earth after refusing to
accept the word of the Most High Council. We can understand why these beings
were considered as angels and why they are considered as falling from heaven to
Earth. At the time of Atlantis the beings upon the planet Lucifer were
extremely advanced and possessed Space flight and wisdom that Earth man does
not yet even know. They were thus advanced far beyond the modern man of Earth,
and were indeed possessors of rare wisdom. Their fall occured when they disobeyed
the Most High and continued with devastating experiments that caused their
planet to be exploded. Thus cast out by the Most High and the other angels they
descended to earth where they were forced to rebuild and start anew. They had
lost a vast and beautious planet, and thus fell to the early civilizations that
Earth possessed at that time. They continued their evil on Atlantis and when he
Angels in heaven saw this they were commanded by the Most High to cause this to
cease by scattering the people and dividing the language, so the evil ideas of
the fatten ones would not be understood. When the messengers from Venus arrived
to start the work of the Most High, Tregon tells us that, "... the sealing
up of ignorance and fallen angels began."
Since the space people of Venus did instruct and guide the
faithful people of Earth to sacred places where they would be safe when certain
changes took place, we know that they will again do this at the proper time.
Our scientists know that there are cycles of activity that Earth passes through
and Tregon also said in his message that "... as a new cycle of change in
the heavens began the wise ones of Venus came to Earth to warn all to
repent." The people of Venus knew of the inevitable axis change that was
to bring a flood and cataclysms to Earth. The faithful were warned and only
those who were full of obedience to the Most High received the warnings and
instructions. Thus Earth was cleansed and the evil ones with their records and
language sank with Atlantis and other continents, while the faithful were
saved.
We find the space people are now prepared to again warn those who
are faithful and to show them sacred ground to go to, also to lift them from
the face of Earth itself and protect them from the radioactivity and evil of
those who do not follow the laws of the Most High. Our Space Brother has said,
"... Let those who have ears to hear, let them hear." Tregon has told
us that the evil of Earth will continue until the planets and oceans are
radioactive unless Earthman puts a stop to this evil.
The space people cannot intervene, nor cause all the A and H
bombs to become inactive, for they, too, are held in a certain status until the
time comes when then Most High issues a decree of action for Earth. No doubt
they have the wisdom and means of making all the storage of bombs inactive, but
they will not nor cannot interfere unless the order is given by the Most High.
The Brothers have told us before that the evil ones of Atlantis were
experimenting with such energy releases that our scientists are playing with
today in the A and H bomb experiments, and that due to this they brought about
the axis change more quickly than the natural change would have been. He has
told us the tribulations of Earth could be brought about too quickly, for an
axis change is coming and if left unhampered it will be natural and slow; but
if the explosion of bombs continues it could bring about this axis change too
quickly and cause cataclysms.
Many times the enthusiast asks us, "Why don't the Space People
just come down and take over? Earth would be better off." But Tregon has
answered that question, and until Earth is again ready for the natural axis
change they will only issue warnings and perhaps take the faithful up to the
far heavens where they will wait the final cleansing of Earth's surface.
The problem of flying saucers has become very deeply interwoven
with the fate of Earth, and none who investigates the phenomena can come out of
it without sensing the complexity of the solution. No one can give a definite
occount of all the Space people's purposes, but we can share the information we
do get and piece together the intricate puzzle of what they are, why they come
to Earth, and how Earth is being benefited by them. To the faithful who keep
the Laws of the Most High we can only phrase the words that so often come to
our minds, "... rejoice, and be exceedingly glad: for great is your reward
in heaven: ..."
Thank you. Ladies and Gentlemen, for your time.
