The Others
Starting from several assumptions: We are visited by non-human beings. They are more technically advanced than we are. Some are kind, some are dangerous, some are indifferent to us. Governments around the world have kept them secret for at least 80 years. Although there has been extensive interaction, much of it seemingly random, most have been reluctant to tell the story of their encounter. At the same time, it seems that most, if not all of the visiting extraterrestrials do not want to become widely known; they have also been secretive. This has been a crazy situation, since our acknowledgement and relationship with these beings is significant.
In recent decades there have been surveys of people that have had contact. Surprisingly, many have had repeated experiences, and a majority of these have been positive. Most of the evidence for their existence is anecdotal. There has been almost no physical evidence. There have been some witnesses to recovered spacecraft, but this remains to be fully revealed or disclosed. The Others do not seem to fear us, but wait for us to develop to the point where we can accept them.
The anecdotes of experiencers tend to be fantastic and unbelievable. They are generally ridiculed. They can not explain the very strange things that have been happening to them. Information we have gathered is piecemeal and fragmented. We have not been able to study them scientifically. They do not fit the way that we look at things. That information that we do have seems impossible, incomplete, and often contradictory. Their manifestations are generally outside of the human framework.
Despite their enigmatic quality, recent surveys show that ET appearances and abductions follow a pattern, or patterns. We might believe the varied narratives that some ETs have given which experiencers have recounted, but these stories are quite mixed. Confusion reigns, particularly since we, as a whole, are ignorant of the different species. Some of the species demonstrate caring for us, and others have an extreme antipathy. Some seem to want to heal us and develop our species, and other extraterrestrials want to manipulate or destroy us.
Ironically, what we need to do is expand our science to include what is not visible. A model is the study of Near Death Experiences. Although we have religions that accept what is not visible, many religious people have a tendency to view extraterrestrials as angels and demons. This is not helpful. We need to bridge the gap between faith and ignorance and knowing.
We have been given various historical narratives by different extraterrestrials. Some say that we have been ‘seeded’ by other species. The accounts of genetic meddling are numerous. Considering that recorded human history goes back only a few thousand years, it is difficult to know conclusively if these are true—or if true, incomplete. There is so much that we don’t know.
If there is such mystery and obfuscation and ridicule—why try to find out the truth? Aren’t you curious? Don’t you want to know? There has already been much disclosure, but most of it is not ‘official’, by governments and scientists. Much of the truth is anecdotal. And varied. It will make your head spin. Some of it, some part of it, you will decide is true, even if it defies logic and possibility. It is truly a different world.
