The Phenomena Of Abduction
(This is an excerpt from a University Of Metaphysical Sciences course at www.umsonline.org, please feel free to visit the school website)
In
Communion (1987) Whitley Strieber tell the story of what he calls
“a shattering assault from the unknown.” According to his account, in the
winter of 1985 he was “visited” at his cabin in a secluded corner of upstate
New York, taken somewhere against his will and subjected to frightening
and painful medical-like procedures at the hands of small, emotionless beings,
later called “the Grays.”
His memories were retrieved through hypnosis when he sought help for disturbing
depression and feeling of disorientation. He also discovered that there
were many other people, all found to be quite mentally competent, who were
struggling with similar experiences.
Leah Haley is another person who is dealing with the trauma of her experiences
by writing and lecturing. In Unlocking Alien Closets (2003) she
chronicles many experiences of being taken and tested aboard spacecraft.
She adds the component of realizing that many of her experiences after the
initial times were actually happening on military bases. She noted that
at times she became conscious enough to realize that her examiners were
humans wearing masks. She has done research to confirm her memories. She
also reports being harassed by black helicopters and threatened at gunpoint
by military personnel during non-abduction times. She allows us to draw
our own conclusions about these experiences, but she is passionate about
giving her testimony so that we can consider that there may be more to the
“abduction” phenomena than we have been led to believe.
Dr. Steven Greer’s information in Extraterrestrial Contact: The Evidence
And The Implications (1999) is supportive of Ms. Haley’s experiences.
Greer believes that because of the military’s use of reverse engineering
of the technology retrieved from ET crashes and encounters, that many abduction
experiences can be attributed the human originated operations. The purpose
of these activities would be to perpetuate an image of “aliens” (to use
the xenophobic term) as menacing, dangerous and to be feared. As we have
seen in our descriptions of the many and various races interacting with
earth and humanity, this may very well be true of certain groups and agendas.
However, when we generalize this perspective to all ETI groups, we are negative
stereotyping in a way that limits and disempowers us. We are still learning
this lesson on Earth, the problems that result from generalizing conclusions
made about individuals or small groups of people to entire cultures or populations.
One has to wonder what the purpose would be of making us afraid of our ET
brothers and sisters. It reminds me of any religious organization teaching
that the only access to God is through them. The message is that we are
not worthy of accessing the Source ourselves and so we must have an intermediary.
It seems that the MIEC may not want individual humans to access the wonder
and empowerment that comes from direct contact with these beings. Perhaps
they fear that we will realize how truly magnificent we are, and are becoming,
and then we will be less easily controlled.
In her work with clients in the deepest state of hypnosis, Dolores Cannon,
The Custodians: Beyond Abductions (1999) describes the
ETs as our loving parents. The information she accesses explains abductions
with yet another spin. Our ET parents, who created us, are very concerned
with how the way we have treated our planet is affecting our physical bodies.
Because of this they periodically bring certain ones on board their ships
for testing and correction. They are actually assisting us in making our
bodies mores resistant to pollutants and other damaging elements we have
created. Their intention is that we not remember these experiences or that
we not remember them in a way that would frighten or alarm us. She talks
of their use of “screen memories” where the ETs actually project a more
easily accepted image of themselves so we will feel comfortable.
She says they do abide by a code of non-interference. Just like a loving
parent, they regularly provide gifts to help us evolve, gifts such as fire,
cultivation of food or a Master like Jesus. Then it is up to us what we
do with those gifts. They say that they will intervene if we get to the
point of destroying the world, just as a parent would intervene with a teenager
who was endangering him or herself past the point of no return. She laughs
as she recounts how they perceive the view that they are here to take over
the world. “Why would we need to take over the world?” they say. “It’s ours,
it always has been.”
