1 00:00:02,860 --> 00:00:07,670 [Music] 2 00:00:14,270 --> 00:00:10,970 hello and welcome to episode number 83 3 00:00:18,769 --> 00:00:14,280 of the point of convergence podcast as 4 00:00:20,870 --> 00:00:18,779 always I am your host EXO academian 5 00:00:23,570 --> 00:00:20,880 within the vast historical literature 6 00:00:25,250 --> 00:00:23,580 associated with the UFO phenomenon there 7 00:00:27,170 --> 00:00:25,260 are references to numerous kinds of 8 00:00:29,390 --> 00:00:27,180 craft cited and numerous kinds of 9 00:00:31,970 --> 00:00:29,400 entities encountered 10 00:00:34,190 --> 00:00:31,980 interestingly even within a subset of a 11 00:00:36,650 --> 00:00:34,200 certain group of entities distinct 12 00:00:38,270 --> 00:00:36,660 patterns sometimes emerge suggesting 13 00:00:40,369 --> 00:00:38,280 specific Enterprises have been 14 00:00:43,130 --> 00:00:40,379 undertaken at various points in history 15 00:00:45,170 --> 00:00:43,140 by these various groups 16 00:00:46,970 --> 00:00:45,180 one such unique pattern took place 17 00:00:48,889 --> 00:00:46,980 between sometime in the late 20th 18 00:00:50,450 --> 00:00:48,899 century stretching up until around the 19 00:00:52,610 --> 00:00:50,460 turn of the millennium 20 00:00:54,670 --> 00:00:52,620 this specific Endeavor was concentrated 21 00:00:57,410 --> 00:00:54,680 around what have come to be known as 22 00:00:59,450 --> 00:00:57,420 abductions in other words The Specific 23 00:01:01,910 --> 00:00:59,460 Enterprise involved not just sightings 24 00:01:04,430 --> 00:01:01,920 but people being abruptly physically 25 00:01:06,590 --> 00:01:04,440 taken from their homes to some other 26 00:01:09,350 --> 00:01:06,600 place whether this be an apparent 27 00:01:11,090 --> 00:01:09,360 spacecraft or some alternate realm where 28 00:01:13,789 --> 00:01:11,100 specific actions were undertaken 29 00:01:15,649 --> 00:01:13,799 involving both physical examinations and 30 00:01:18,230 --> 00:01:15,659 what can only be described as activities 31 00:01:19,910 --> 00:01:18,240 pertaining to a large-scale reproductive 32 00:01:24,890 --> 00:01:19,920 program 33 00:01:27,230 --> 00:01:24,900 involving at minimum Untold thousands of 34 00:01:29,210 --> 00:01:27,240 human beings some men and women having 35 00:01:32,270 --> 00:01:29,220 reproductive material taken from them 36 00:01:34,190 --> 00:01:32,280 eggs from women and sperm from men as 37 00:01:36,530 --> 00:01:34,200 part of a scheme to produce what have 38 00:01:39,530 --> 00:01:36,540 come to be known as hybrid beings 39 00:01:42,109 --> 00:01:39,540 entities part conventionally human and 40 00:01:44,330 --> 00:01:42,119 part something else the question around 41 00:01:46,310 --> 00:01:44,340 the nature of this something else is a 42 00:01:49,249 --> 00:01:46,320 matter of some debate one that we'll be 43 00:01:51,170 --> 00:01:49,259 delving into in this episode 44 00:01:52,850 --> 00:01:51,180 once the initial extraction of a 45 00:01:55,910 --> 00:01:52,860 reproductive material had taken place 46 00:01:58,069 --> 00:01:55,920 many abductees slash contact d slash 47 00:01:59,510 --> 00:01:58,079 experiencers pick your designation of 48 00:02:01,310 --> 00:01:59,520 choice and those involved have 49 00:02:03,649 --> 00:02:01,320 differences of opinion on what they 50 00:02:05,389 --> 00:02:03,659 prefer to be called were later shown 51 00:02:07,789 --> 00:02:05,399 what for all intents and purposes 52 00:02:11,150 --> 00:02:07,799 appeared to be their very own hybrid 53 00:02:13,130 --> 00:02:11,160 offspring sometimes these others most 54 00:02:15,650 --> 00:02:13,140 often colloquially referred to as aliens 55 00:02:18,110 --> 00:02:15,660 would ask these human abductees to 56 00:02:20,510 --> 00:02:18,120 interact with said Offspring to fulfill 57 00:02:23,869 --> 00:02:20,520 some form of Developmental bonding 58 00:02:25,430 --> 00:02:23,879 said abduct T slash contactees often 59 00:02:27,530 --> 00:02:25,440 mentioned feeling both a deep connection 60 00:02:29,990 --> 00:02:27,540 to these apparently hybrid children 61 00:02:32,330 --> 00:02:30,000 while also sometimes feeling a sense of 62 00:02:33,890 --> 00:02:32,340 revulsion arising from their atypical 63 00:02:35,750 --> 00:02:33,900 form 64 00:02:38,449 --> 00:02:35,760 as I mentioned this specific 65 00:02:40,910 --> 00:02:38,459 hybridization Enterprise seemed to phase 66 00:02:43,190 --> 00:02:40,920 out around the turn of the millennium 67 00:02:46,070 --> 00:02:43,200 at this point many of these adductee 68 00:02:48,170 --> 00:02:46,080 slash contact d slash experiencers were 69 00:02:50,210 --> 00:02:48,180 telepathically told that they wouldn't 70 00:02:52,430 --> 00:02:50,220 be seeing the apparent aliens nearly as 71 00:02:55,250 --> 00:02:52,440 much anymore indicating the Enterprise 72 00:02:57,290 --> 00:02:55,260 had been successful enough that a page 73 00:02:59,630 --> 00:02:57,300 was now being turned 74 00:03:02,030 --> 00:02:59,640 of course the specificity of this entire 75 00:03:04,550 --> 00:03:02,040 Enterprise raises many intriguing 76 00:03:07,369 --> 00:03:04,560 questions what was the ultimate purpose 77 00:03:09,290 --> 00:03:07,379 of this hybridization program what role 78 00:03:11,630 --> 00:03:09,300 if any do these apparently hybrid 79 00:03:14,390 --> 00:03:11,640 Offspring play in the future of human 80 00:03:16,610 --> 00:03:14,400 civilization and in what way might this 81 00:03:18,830 --> 00:03:16,620 Enterprise serve as a kind of fail-save 82 00:03:21,470 --> 00:03:18,840 against the potential of a coming Earth 83 00:03:23,270 --> 00:03:21,480 cataclysm that experiencers of this type 84 00:03:25,670 --> 00:03:23,280 were warned was bound to be Our 85 00:03:28,910 --> 00:03:25,680 civilization's Fate should we fail to 86 00:03:31,309 --> 00:03:28,920 turn from our misguided airing waves 87 00:03:33,290 --> 00:03:31,319 these are the profound but mind-bending 88 00:03:37,070 --> 00:03:33,300 issues we'll seek to find some clarity 89 00:03:40,670 --> 00:03:37,080 around in this the 83rd episode of the 90 00:03:46,070 --> 00:03:43,910 [Music] 91 00:03:47,809 --> 00:03:46,080 as I mentioned in the introduction today 92 00:03:49,729 --> 00:03:47,819 we're going to be talking about alien 93 00:03:51,710 --> 00:03:49,739 abduction at least that's what it's 94 00:03:53,449 --> 00:03:51,720 colloquially referred to 95 00:03:56,270 --> 00:03:53,459 much of the cases we'll be drawing from 96 00:03:58,550 --> 00:03:56,280 today are from Dr Johnny Mack's 97 00:04:01,009 --> 00:03:58,560 groundbreaking book abduction human 98 00:04:02,869 --> 00:04:01,019 encounters with aliens 99 00:04:05,210 --> 00:04:02,879 as I also mentioned in the introduction 100 00:04:08,030 --> 00:04:05,220 here we're referring to what seems to be 101 00:04:10,250 --> 00:04:08,040 a specific reproductive program a 102 00:04:12,530 --> 00:04:10,260 hybridization program that was 103 00:04:14,929 --> 00:04:12,540 undertaken by some sort of apparently 104 00:04:16,490 --> 00:04:14,939 alien group from the late 20th century 105 00:04:17,449 --> 00:04:16,500 up until around the turn of the 106 00:04:20,150 --> 00:04:17,459 millennium 107 00:04:22,250 --> 00:04:20,160 which is to say it's not that abductions 108 00:04:24,830 --> 00:04:22,260 in the broadest sense don't still happen 109 00:04:27,230 --> 00:04:24,840 but this particular program did seem to 110 00:04:29,090 --> 00:04:27,240 have a specific lifespan that Drew to a 111 00:04:31,189 --> 00:04:29,100 close sometime around the turn of the 112 00:04:33,710 --> 00:04:31,199 millennium again as I said in the 113 00:04:36,469 --> 00:04:33,720 introduction many of the abductee slash 114 00:04:38,330 --> 00:04:36,479 contact these slash experiencers 115 00:04:40,129 --> 00:04:38,340 actually experience telepathic messages 116 00:04:42,890 --> 00:04:40,139 around that time at the turn of the 117 00:04:45,890 --> 00:04:42,900 Millennium saying that they would not be 118 00:04:47,749 --> 00:04:45,900 seeing these others so much anymore and 119 00:04:50,030 --> 00:04:47,759 the implication was that this program 120 00:04:52,189 --> 00:04:50,040 had been successful and that now it was 121 00:04:53,629 --> 00:04:52,199 drawing to a close although there was 122 00:04:56,030 --> 00:04:53,639 hints perhaps that they would hear from 123 00:04:57,890 --> 00:04:56,040 them more later and I would suggest that 124 00:04:59,510 --> 00:04:57,900 even some of those people have 125 00:05:02,749 --> 00:04:59,520 experienced more telepathic messages 126 00:05:05,570 --> 00:05:02,759 especially more recently which might be 127 00:05:07,850 --> 00:05:05,580 important significant pertinent to what 128 00:05:10,010 --> 00:05:07,860 we're talking about these days in terms 129 00:05:13,249 --> 00:05:10,020 of the possibility of a coming cataclysm 130 00:05:15,050 --> 00:05:13,259 some final chapter in human history or 131 00:05:16,909 --> 00:05:15,060 at least the potential of it and if 132 00:05:19,790 --> 00:05:16,919 nothing else the Turning of a 133 00:05:22,070 --> 00:05:19,800 significant page in human history 134 00:05:23,689 --> 00:05:22,080 now before we dive into cases from this 135 00:05:26,590 --> 00:05:23,699 book we should just paint the picture 136 00:05:29,270 --> 00:05:26,600 historically here this book came out in 137 00:05:32,629 --> 00:05:29,280 1994. again the book is abduction human 138 00:05:34,610 --> 00:05:32,639 encounters with aliens by Dr John E Mack 139 00:05:36,590 --> 00:05:34,620 now what's interesting is that of course 140 00:05:39,409 --> 00:05:36,600 that was a very different time than now 141 00:05:42,290 --> 00:05:39,419 we sometimes forget how different things 142 00:05:45,110 --> 00:05:42,300 are now as opposed to then now we're 143 00:05:47,990 --> 00:05:45,120 hearing about UFOs UAP and sightings and 144 00:05:49,370 --> 00:05:48,000 whatnot almost daily even in some of the 145 00:05:51,469 --> 00:05:49,380 mainstream media 146 00:05:54,050 --> 00:05:51,479 and the notion is that perhaps 147 00:05:55,670 --> 00:05:54,060 disclosure is not that far ahead that we 148 00:05:56,689 --> 00:05:55,680 really are seeing moves in that 149 00:05:59,270 --> 00:05:56,699 direction 150 00:06:01,550 --> 00:05:59,280 but looking back to the 1990s that was 151 00:06:04,310 --> 00:06:01,560 not the case pretty much at that point 152 00:06:06,529 --> 00:06:04,320 UFOs were still considered Fringe it was 153 00:06:08,629 --> 00:06:06,539 X-Files episodes kind of enthusiasts and 154 00:06:11,090 --> 00:06:08,639 that kind of thing and certainly the 155 00:06:14,029 --> 00:06:11,100 notion of alien abduction actually being 156 00:06:16,730 --> 00:06:14,039 taken by alien beings up into spacecraft 157 00:06:19,249 --> 00:06:16,740 and then having bizarre sometimes 158 00:06:21,430 --> 00:06:19,259 seemingly ritualistic hybridization 159 00:06:24,469 --> 00:06:21,440 reproductive experiments taking place 160 00:06:26,870 --> 00:06:24,479 was certainly not a mainstream notion 161 00:06:29,210 --> 00:06:26,880 and so when people began to have these 162 00:06:31,550 --> 00:06:29,220 encounters you can imagine how shocking 163 00:06:33,950 --> 00:06:31,560 it was to them not just because of The 164 00:06:36,290 --> 00:06:33,960 Uncanny nature of the experiences but 165 00:06:37,670 --> 00:06:36,300 because there really was no precedent in 166 00:06:39,710 --> 00:06:37,680 human history 167 00:06:41,930 --> 00:06:39,720 and because of that of course many of 168 00:06:43,249 --> 00:06:41,940 these people had nowhere to turn when 169 00:06:45,469 --> 00:06:43,259 they tried to explain what was happening 170 00:06:47,870 --> 00:06:45,479 to family members they were often 171 00:06:49,430 --> 00:06:47,880 rejected and there was questioning about 172 00:06:51,830 --> 00:06:49,440 their mental health of course because 173 00:06:54,830 --> 00:06:51,840 this again was not on the radar for the 174 00:06:57,529 --> 00:06:54,840 vast vast majority of our population and 175 00:06:59,689 --> 00:06:57,539 so these people while they tried to find 176 00:07:00,890 --> 00:06:59,699 different ways of dealing with this by 177 00:07:03,050 --> 00:07:00,900 going to different 178 00:07:04,430 --> 00:07:03,060 authorities and whatnot it just wasn't 179 00:07:06,350 --> 00:07:04,440 something they could find they couldn't 180 00:07:08,270 --> 00:07:06,360 find authorities that were willing to 181 00:07:09,350 --> 00:07:08,280 talk about this who had any familiarity 182 00:07:11,930 --> 00:07:09,360 with this 183 00:07:14,390 --> 00:07:11,940 even official or semi-official groups 184 00:07:17,510 --> 00:07:14,400 like mufon didn't really deal with this 185 00:07:19,430 --> 00:07:17,520 back then this was all brand new in our 186 00:07:21,110 --> 00:07:19,440 cultural Zeitgeist altogether 187 00:07:23,870 --> 00:07:21,120 and I just want to make that point to 188 00:07:27,050 --> 00:07:23,880 remind us all just how discombobulating 189 00:07:29,150 --> 00:07:27,060 terrifying shocking these events were 190 00:07:30,469 --> 00:07:29,160 again not just because of the nature of 191 00:07:32,570 --> 00:07:30,479 the events which were shocking in 192 00:07:34,969 --> 00:07:32,580 themselves but because there was nowhere 193 00:07:37,610 --> 00:07:34,979 to turn this was not part of our 194 00:07:39,830 --> 00:07:37,620 cultural milieu at all so again these 195 00:07:42,050 --> 00:07:39,840 people felt very alone and that's where 196 00:07:43,790 --> 00:07:42,060 someone like John Mack came in because 197 00:07:45,589 --> 00:07:43,800 again he actually listened to these 198 00:07:47,450 --> 00:07:45,599 people and while he was a skeptic of 199 00:07:49,909 --> 00:07:47,460 this entire notion to begin with 200 00:07:52,370 --> 00:07:49,919 because of his years of experience in 201 00:07:54,110 --> 00:07:52,380 research and as a psychotherapist it 202 00:07:56,330 --> 00:07:54,120 became clear to him these people were 203 00:07:57,409 --> 00:07:56,340 rational they were coherent they were 204 00:07:59,450 --> 00:07:57,419 not suffering from any kind of 205 00:08:01,909 --> 00:07:59,460 Psychopathology they seemed to be 206 00:08:03,469 --> 00:08:01,919 recounting actual experiences and 207 00:08:06,469 --> 00:08:03,479 certainly their body language and even 208 00:08:09,409 --> 00:08:06,479 their body output in terms of PTSD 209 00:08:11,990 --> 00:08:09,419 post-traumatic stress symptoms seemed to 210 00:08:14,210 --> 00:08:12,000 speak to the veracity of these claims 211 00:08:16,249 --> 00:08:14,220 something really did happen even if it 212 00:08:18,589 --> 00:08:16,259 stretches our understanding of what is 213 00:08:21,350 --> 00:08:18,599 real that's what he concluded and he 214 00:08:23,330 --> 00:08:21,360 proceeded with that notion in mind 215 00:08:25,730 --> 00:08:23,340 I'd also like to remind us here that 216 00:08:28,909 --> 00:08:25,740 while times have changed and the Notions 217 00:08:30,890 --> 00:08:28,919 of UFOs UAP in our midst is much more of 218 00:08:32,449 --> 00:08:30,900 a mainstream conversation now and the 219 00:08:34,010 --> 00:08:32,459 government certainly seems to be not 220 00:08:35,870 --> 00:08:34,020 only taking it seriously which they 221 00:08:37,490 --> 00:08:35,880 always did but what's different now is 222 00:08:39,469 --> 00:08:37,500 they're taking it seriously and they're 223 00:08:41,990 --> 00:08:39,479 acknowledging there is a there there 224 00:08:43,969 --> 00:08:42,000 even if it's only kind of a coded kind 225 00:08:46,430 --> 00:08:43,979 of message at this point but the general 226 00:08:48,410 --> 00:08:46,440 public is slowly being acclimatized to 227 00:08:51,350 --> 00:08:48,420 this notion that there are anomalous 228 00:08:54,650 --> 00:08:51,360 objects or phenomena in our skies and 229 00:08:56,329 --> 00:08:54,660 elsewhere hence we have Arrow which is 230 00:08:58,190 --> 00:08:56,339 tasked to get to the bottom of what 231 00:09:00,829 --> 00:08:58,200 these objects are what these phenomena 232 00:09:03,350 --> 00:09:00,839 are that seem to be with impunity coming 233 00:09:05,389 --> 00:09:03,360 over U.S airspace and whatnot 234 00:09:07,610 --> 00:09:05,399 but again all of the focus there is on 235 00:09:09,829 --> 00:09:07,620 the objects on the phenomena in the sky 236 00:09:12,230 --> 00:09:09,839 right not on what's actually happening 237 00:09:15,290 --> 00:09:12,240 to people we are not yet publicly 238 00:09:17,389 --> 00:09:15,300 dealing with the messages experiencers 239 00:09:19,730 --> 00:09:17,399 have received the encounters that 240 00:09:21,410 --> 00:09:19,740 experiencers have been through so in 241 00:09:23,030 --> 00:09:21,420 that sense things haven't changed all 242 00:09:25,070 --> 00:09:23,040 that much and I can tell you that 243 00:09:26,509 --> 00:09:25,080 experiencers still feel often left out 244 00:09:29,210 --> 00:09:26,519 of the public conversation right now 245 00:09:31,130 --> 00:09:29,220 because they are not being listened to 246 00:09:33,170 --> 00:09:31,140 they're not being sought out for their 247 00:09:34,910 --> 00:09:33,180 testimony hopefully that will change 248 00:09:37,610 --> 00:09:34,920 soon 249 00:09:39,710 --> 00:09:37,620 okay let's address something else that I 250 00:09:42,650 --> 00:09:39,720 hinted at in the introduction the 251 00:09:45,230 --> 00:09:42,660 question of what do we call these others 252 00:09:47,570 --> 00:09:45,240 now on the one hand we often refer to 253 00:09:50,509 --> 00:09:47,580 them as aliens and even this book is 254 00:09:52,490 --> 00:09:50,519 subtitled human encounters with aliens 255 00:09:55,610 --> 00:09:52,500 I'll just remind you there that aliens 256 00:09:57,290 --> 00:09:55,620 doesn't necessarily mean space aliens as 257 00:09:59,810 --> 00:09:57,300 I mentioned recently on a liminal frames 258 00:10:01,850 --> 00:09:59,820 podcast episode I think it was I had a 259 00:10:04,490 --> 00:10:01,860 friend who had a band in high school 260 00:10:07,009 --> 00:10:04,500 called alien and the psycho and actually 261 00:10:09,889 --> 00:10:07,019 is a translation of a passage in the Old 262 00:10:12,230 --> 00:10:09,899 Testament where actually the alien there 263 00:10:13,670 --> 00:10:12,240 was a different human tribe right so 264 00:10:15,190 --> 00:10:13,680 that's interesting this term doesn't 265 00:10:17,630 --> 00:10:15,200 necessarily mean 266 00:10:19,430 --> 00:10:17,640 extraterrestrial and it even if it means 267 00:10:21,590 --> 00:10:19,440 extraterrestrial it doesn't mean that it 268 00:10:25,430 --> 00:10:21,600 might not have some sort of genetic link 269 00:10:27,530 --> 00:10:25,440 to us and I raised that because there is 270 00:10:29,030 --> 00:10:27,540 some evidence that these others these 271 00:10:31,850 --> 00:10:29,040 particular others at least some of them 272 00:10:33,710 --> 00:10:31,860 do have a link to us now some would 273 00:10:36,230 --> 00:10:33,720 suggest this means that they are us from 274 00:10:38,990 --> 00:10:36,240 the future perhaps time traveling 275 00:10:41,990 --> 00:10:39,000 neo-humans or as Michael Masters has 276 00:10:44,210 --> 00:10:42,000 coined extra tempestrials 277 00:10:46,190 --> 00:10:44,220 so when some people say non-human 278 00:10:47,150 --> 00:10:46,200 intelligence and land on that as a new 279 00:10:49,310 --> 00:10:47,160 term 280 00:10:51,410 --> 00:10:49,320 I sometimes am more comfortable with a 281 00:10:53,630 --> 00:10:51,420 term like non-conventional human 282 00:10:56,329 --> 00:10:53,640 intelligence because again we don't know 283 00:10:58,550 --> 00:10:56,339 that it's absolutely not human 284 00:11:01,069 --> 00:10:58,560 even again according to the lore of some 285 00:11:02,630 --> 00:11:01,079 of the Roswell crash material there are 286 00:11:04,610 --> 00:11:02,640 hints that there was a genetic link 287 00:11:05,990 --> 00:11:04,620 between us and them in terms of the 288 00:11:07,970 --> 00:11:06,000 bodies that were recovered from this 289 00:11:11,030 --> 00:11:07,980 scene which again raises questions 290 00:11:13,009 --> 00:11:11,040 around what does alien mean here how 291 00:11:15,230 --> 00:11:13,019 could there be this link 292 00:11:17,389 --> 00:11:15,240 furthermore we sometimes refer to them 293 00:11:18,889 --> 00:11:17,399 as visitors but the thing is they may 294 00:11:20,690 --> 00:11:18,899 have been here as long as we have 295 00:11:22,250 --> 00:11:20,700 perhaps even longer 296 00:11:24,230 --> 00:11:22,260 and in that sense they're not really 297 00:11:26,389 --> 00:11:24,240 visitors although I guess you could 298 00:11:28,730 --> 00:11:26,399 argue that they are visitors to our 299 00:11:31,190 --> 00:11:28,740 Consciousness in terms of our awareness 300 00:11:32,690 --> 00:11:31,200 of their presence but nevertheless you 301 00:11:35,090 --> 00:11:32,700 see what the challenge is in terms of 302 00:11:37,670 --> 00:11:35,100 how to refer to them that's why I often 303 00:11:39,829 --> 00:11:37,680 opt for the others just because they are 304 00:11:41,930 --> 00:11:39,839 in some way not exactly us even if 305 00:11:43,910 --> 00:11:41,940 they're somehow linked to us and so that 306 00:11:46,430 --> 00:11:43,920 feels like a term that is the best fit 307 00:11:47,930 --> 00:11:46,440 often but not always and again it just 308 00:11:50,030 --> 00:11:47,940 points to the fact that because we're 309 00:11:52,550 --> 00:11:50,040 still trying to figure out exactly who 310 00:11:54,530 --> 00:11:52,560 they are who we are for that matter and 311 00:11:56,210 --> 00:11:54,540 how we may be linked we're going to have 312 00:11:57,829 --> 00:11:56,220 challenges knowing exactly how to refer 313 00:11:59,630 --> 00:11:57,839 to them and perhaps there is no perfect 314 00:12:01,370 --> 00:11:59,640 term 315 00:12:04,370 --> 00:12:01,380 all right so here we're speaking about 316 00:12:06,530 --> 00:12:04,380 alien abduction now this is a notion 317 00:12:08,630 --> 00:12:06,540 rooted in popular culture because there 318 00:12:10,970 --> 00:12:08,640 actually are stories now accounts that 319 00:12:13,490 --> 00:12:10,980 have come out and most people are now at 320 00:12:14,569 --> 00:12:13,500 least aware of the elements of these 321 00:12:16,730 --> 00:12:14,579 reports 322 00:12:20,930 --> 00:12:16,740 and they include the following elements 323 00:12:22,790 --> 00:12:20,940 number one missing time abductees often 324 00:12:25,069 --> 00:12:22,800 report periods of time during which they 325 00:12:28,630 --> 00:12:25,079 cannot account for their whereabouts or 326 00:12:31,550 --> 00:12:28,640 activities two presence of aliens 327 00:12:33,610 --> 00:12:31,560 abductees frequently report being taken 328 00:12:36,290 --> 00:12:33,620 aboard a spacecraft and encountering 329 00:12:39,350 --> 00:12:36,300 non-human entities which are often 330 00:12:40,850 --> 00:12:39,360 described as gray-skinned large-eyed and 331 00:12:44,030 --> 00:12:40,860 hairless beings 332 00:12:46,310 --> 00:12:44,040 number three medical examinations many 333 00:12:49,850 --> 00:12:46,320 abductees report undergoing medical 334 00:12:52,550 --> 00:12:49,860 procedures including the insertion of 335 00:12:55,629 --> 00:12:52,560 implants or The Taking of tissue samples 336 00:12:57,769 --> 00:12:55,639 number four telepathic communication 337 00:12:59,990 --> 00:12:57,779 abductees often report receiving 338 00:13:02,509 --> 00:13:00,000 information or instructions from the 339 00:13:04,629 --> 00:13:02,519 aliens telepathically that is 340 00:13:08,090 --> 00:13:04,639 mind-to-mind contact and communication 341 00:13:10,310 --> 00:13:08,100 number five paralysis abductees 342 00:13:13,790 --> 00:13:10,320 frequently describe being unable to move 343 00:13:15,889 --> 00:13:13,800 during the experience number six fear 344 00:13:17,509 --> 00:13:15,899 and anxiety the experience of alien 345 00:13:19,850 --> 00:13:17,519 abduction is often described as 346 00:13:22,129 --> 00:13:19,860 terrifying with abductees reporting 347 00:13:23,629 --> 00:13:22,139 feelings of fear anxiety and 348 00:13:25,850 --> 00:13:23,639 helplessness 349 00:13:27,769 --> 00:13:25,860 now regarding this last piece a key 350 00:13:29,930 --> 00:13:27,779 distinction to make here is that these 351 00:13:32,269 --> 00:13:29,940 particular kinds of encounters are 352 00:13:34,310 --> 00:13:32,279 particularly shocking more so than 353 00:13:36,949 --> 00:13:34,320 sightings in the sky even when those 354 00:13:38,930 --> 00:13:36,959 involve telepathic downloads because 355 00:13:41,629 --> 00:13:38,940 these specific abduction encounters 356 00:13:43,850 --> 00:13:41,639 involve coming into close contact with 357 00:13:46,790 --> 00:13:43,860 beings of a decidedly non-conventional 358 00:13:49,009 --> 00:13:46,800 nature their form their shape their 359 00:13:51,170 --> 00:13:49,019 presence is shocking in itself 360 00:13:53,690 --> 00:13:51,180 and also because the encounters are 361 00:13:55,250 --> 00:13:53,700 number one abrupt one moment you're 362 00:13:57,069 --> 00:13:55,260 alone in the next moment these beings 363 00:13:59,750 --> 00:13:57,079 are there with you in close quarters 364 00:14:00,710 --> 00:13:59,760 often after passing through solid walls 365 00:14:02,870 --> 00:14:00,720 no less 366 00:14:05,449 --> 00:14:02,880 and number two because these encounters 367 00:14:08,389 --> 00:14:05,459 are physical in nature meaning they 368 00:14:10,550 --> 00:14:08,399 manifest as solidly to their as anything 369 00:14:13,490 --> 00:14:10,560 or anyone else in our waking State 370 00:14:16,730 --> 00:14:13,500 consensus reality these are not dreams 371 00:14:18,710 --> 00:14:16,740 Visions or examples of hypnagogia as 372 00:14:21,230 --> 00:14:18,720 Skeptics try to insist 373 00:14:23,870 --> 00:14:21,240 now regarding the recounting of 374 00:14:26,870 --> 00:14:23,880 experiences with apparent aliens in 375 00:14:29,269 --> 00:14:26,880 apparently abduction experiences much of 376 00:14:31,550 --> 00:14:29,279 this material arises from hypnotic 377 00:14:34,670 --> 00:14:31,560 regression that is to say a therapist 378 00:14:36,949 --> 00:14:34,680 puts a person under hypnosis and then 379 00:14:39,230 --> 00:14:36,959 with the aid of that hypnotic regression 380 00:14:40,689 --> 00:14:39,240 they were able to recover more material 381 00:14:43,129 --> 00:14:40,699 than they necessarily remembered 382 00:14:44,750 --> 00:14:43,139 consciously but we should make the point 383 00:14:46,490 --> 00:14:44,760 here that many of these people do have 384 00:14:48,590 --> 00:14:46,500 conscious memories and it's the 385 00:14:50,870 --> 00:14:48,600 conscious memories that led them to the 386 00:14:52,069 --> 00:14:50,880 therapist to begin with if they had no 387 00:14:53,930 --> 00:14:52,079 memories of this they wouldn't have 388 00:14:56,269 --> 00:14:53,940 sought out someone like John Mack in 389 00:14:58,550 --> 00:14:56,279 this book abduction to begin with these 390 00:15:01,310 --> 00:14:58,560 people were not suffering from any kind 391 00:15:03,170 --> 00:15:01,320 of malady otherwise it was the nature of 392 00:15:06,110 --> 00:15:03,180 these experiences which they consciously 393 00:15:08,030 --> 00:15:06,120 remembered that made them seek out some 394 00:15:10,069 --> 00:15:08,040 sort of assistance to make sense of what 395 00:15:12,050 --> 00:15:10,079 was going on again because it did seem 396 00:15:15,170 --> 00:15:12,060 to stretch the Notions of our consensus 397 00:15:17,269 --> 00:15:15,180 reality our model of reality altogether 398 00:15:19,189 --> 00:15:17,279 so I want to make that point these 399 00:15:21,829 --> 00:15:19,199 people sought out a therapist like John 400 00:15:24,590 --> 00:15:21,839 Mack because they consciously remembered 401 00:15:27,470 --> 00:15:24,600 having experiences that were uncanny in 402 00:15:30,170 --> 00:15:27,480 nature and in this case the therapy 403 00:15:32,389 --> 00:15:30,180 helped them uncover more memories to 404 00:15:34,610 --> 00:15:32,399 bring more clarity to them 405 00:15:37,550 --> 00:15:34,620 now I want to make this clear while 406 00:15:40,129 --> 00:15:37,560 hypnosis done poorly can lead to false 407 00:15:42,290 --> 00:15:40,139 memories it's also my perspective that 408 00:15:44,870 --> 00:15:42,300 regression done properly according to 409 00:15:46,910 --> 00:15:44,880 strict protocols can be helpful for 410 00:15:49,370 --> 00:15:46,920 people seeking to gain more clarity on 411 00:15:51,530 --> 00:15:49,380 their encounters when they already have 412 00:15:52,790 --> 00:15:51,540 conscious memory of an encounter that's 413 00:15:55,610 --> 00:15:52,800 key 414 00:15:58,129 --> 00:15:55,620 now speaking of hypnotic regression as a 415 00:16:01,009 --> 00:15:58,139 tool Kathleen Martin has recently 416 00:16:02,810 --> 00:16:01,019 weighed in on this matter now who is she 417 00:16:06,050 --> 00:16:02,820 she is a well-known UFO Abduction 418 00:16:08,689 --> 00:16:06,060 researcher author and lecturer with 23 419 00:16:10,370 --> 00:16:08,699 years of experience in the field this is 420 00:16:13,250 --> 00:16:10,380 what she said recently in an article 421 00:16:15,769 --> 00:16:13,260 addressing hypnotic regression as a tool 422 00:16:18,829 --> 00:16:15,779 quote the use of hypnosis to recover 423 00:16:21,470 --> 00:16:18,839 lost memories of missing time during a 424 00:16:23,569 --> 00:16:21,480 purported UFO Abduction has engendered 425 00:16:26,930 --> 00:16:23,579 more controversy than nearly any other 426 00:16:29,090 --> 00:16:26,940 topic among UFO researchers and anti-ufo 427 00:16:31,490 --> 00:16:29,100 research Skeptics deniers and 428 00:16:33,590 --> 00:16:31,500 disinformants Scholars point out that 429 00:16:36,110 --> 00:16:33,600 although hypnosis facilitates the recall 430 00:16:38,329 --> 00:16:36,120 of accurate information we may 431 00:16:39,710 --> 00:16:38,339 unwittingly manufacture details that 432 00:16:41,350 --> 00:16:39,720 were not previously part of the 433 00:16:43,610 --> 00:16:41,360 historical narrative 434 00:16:45,350 --> 00:16:43,620 particularly when the hypnotist 435 00:16:47,629 --> 00:16:45,360 pressures the client for detailed 436 00:16:49,850 --> 00:16:47,639 information that is not available in 437 00:16:52,009 --> 00:16:49,860 their conscious memories some radical 438 00:16:54,470 --> 00:16:52,019 critics extrapolate that imperfect 439 00:16:59,810 --> 00:16:54,480 hypnosis is reason to dismiss its use 440 00:17:02,269 --> 00:16:59,820 entirely I disagree quote unquote 441 00:17:04,130 --> 00:17:02,279 now she goes on to say quote hypnosis 442 00:17:06,049 --> 00:17:04,140 should not be used by investigators to 443 00:17:08,329 --> 00:17:06,059 determine if an individual has been 444 00:17:10,789 --> 00:17:08,339 taken to a non-human environment and 445 00:17:13,010 --> 00:17:10,799 developed amnesia for the event we must 446 00:17:15,049 --> 00:17:13,020 rely on the witness's conscious recall 447 00:17:16,970 --> 00:17:15,059 and the physical and circumstantial 448 00:17:20,630 --> 00:17:16,980 evidence in support of the witnesses 449 00:17:22,730 --> 00:17:20,640 statements prior to hypnosis unquote 450 00:17:24,890 --> 00:17:22,740 so a couple key points there we should 451 00:17:26,750 --> 00:17:24,900 not be using hypnosis to try to see if 452 00:17:28,909 --> 00:17:26,760 there was an abduction event we should 453 00:17:31,130 --> 00:17:28,919 only use it as a tool to further refine 454 00:17:32,990 --> 00:17:31,140 statements that were already made based 455 00:17:35,029 --> 00:17:33,000 on conscious recall 456 00:17:37,970 --> 00:17:35,039 secondly she pointed to the fact that 457 00:17:39,830 --> 00:17:37,980 Scholars do consider this a valid means 458 00:17:43,430 --> 00:17:39,840 most of the time it's just when it's 459 00:17:46,310 --> 00:17:43,440 used improperly that problems arise 460 00:17:49,490 --> 00:17:46,320 now speaking of that what exactly is 461 00:17:52,370 --> 00:17:49,500 hypnosis why does this work this is how 462 00:17:54,529 --> 00:17:52,380 she defines it quote some researchers 463 00:17:57,289 --> 00:17:54,539 claim that no one knows what hypnosis is 464 00:17:59,750 --> 00:17:57,299 however a psychiatrist David Spiegel 465 00:18:01,549 --> 00:17:59,760 medical director of the center for 466 00:18:04,070 --> 00:18:01,559 integrative medicine at the Stanford 467 00:18:07,250 --> 00:18:04,080 University School of Medicine informs us 468 00:18:09,950 --> 00:18:07,260 that hypnosis involves disassociation in 469 00:18:11,690 --> 00:18:09,960 a structured setting whereby one idea is 470 00:18:14,270 --> 00:18:11,700 brought into Focus while the field of 471 00:18:16,190 --> 00:18:14,280 vision is narrowed all other competing 472 00:18:19,430 --> 00:18:16,200 thoughts are omitted and one's attention 473 00:18:20,990 --> 00:18:19,440 is concentrated in a hyper memory in 474 00:18:23,630 --> 00:18:21,000 other words we enter into a state of 475 00:18:25,970 --> 00:18:23,640 intense concentration that permits us to 476 00:18:29,090 --> 00:18:25,980 filter out distractions and to focus our 477 00:18:30,529 --> 00:18:29,100 attention on a certain past event this 478 00:18:33,610 --> 00:18:30,539 leads to better recall of information 479 00:18:38,150 --> 00:18:33,620 than our conscious memory can elicit 480 00:18:40,730 --> 00:18:38,160 unquote so that's key it's about zeroing 481 00:18:42,950 --> 00:18:40,740 in on a memory not adding details to the 482 00:18:45,350 --> 00:18:42,960 memory and again that is only a risk 483 00:18:47,390 --> 00:18:45,360 when it is done poorly when the hypnotic 484 00:18:50,510 --> 00:18:47,400 regression is done poorly or when you 485 00:18:52,789 --> 00:18:50,520 have a therapist actually trying to ask 486 00:18:54,710 --> 00:18:52,799 leading questions that can take the 487 00:18:56,510 --> 00:18:54,720 memory in a different direction and 488 00:18:59,029 --> 00:18:56,520 actually produce false memories as a 489 00:19:01,669 --> 00:18:59,039 result but again done properly this is 490 00:19:04,310 --> 00:19:01,679 about creating a disassociation in a 491 00:19:06,650 --> 00:19:04,320 structured setting so as to zero in on 492 00:19:08,870 --> 00:19:06,660 an actual memory 493 00:19:10,669 --> 00:19:08,880 all right now let's get to more of the 494 00:19:12,770 --> 00:19:10,679 specifics of the nature of these 495 00:19:14,870 --> 00:19:12,780 encounters the nature of these so-called 496 00:19:16,610 --> 00:19:14,880 abduction encounters 497 00:19:19,310 --> 00:19:16,620 now again we already dealt with the fact 498 00:19:21,049 --> 00:19:19,320 that these are very abrupt and shocking 499 00:19:24,230 --> 00:19:21,059 ontologically shocking which by the way 500 00:19:25,669 --> 00:19:24,240 is a term that Mac actually coined has 501 00:19:27,710 --> 00:19:25,679 to do with the fact that these beings 502 00:19:29,930 --> 00:19:27,720 are present and apparently our physical 503 00:19:31,909 --> 00:19:29,940 reality people can feel them when they 504 00:19:33,650 --> 00:19:31,919 touch them when they press against you 505 00:19:35,690 --> 00:19:33,660 you can feel it you can see evidence 506 00:19:37,789 --> 00:19:35,700 that they're moving around your room 507 00:19:39,470 --> 00:19:37,799 when they suddenly appear there by 508 00:19:41,450 --> 00:19:39,480 passing through a wall or something like 509 00:19:42,890 --> 00:19:41,460 that so first of all you have to deal 510 00:19:44,510 --> 00:19:42,900 with the ontological shock of these 511 00:19:47,330 --> 00:19:44,520 beings that should not exist suddenly 512 00:19:49,610 --> 00:19:47,340 being there and apparently manifesting 513 00:19:51,650 --> 00:19:49,620 just as real as anything else the wall 514 00:19:53,450 --> 00:19:51,660 they came through or perhaps the person 515 00:19:54,950 --> 00:19:53,460 sleeping in the room next to you they're 516 00:19:57,470 --> 00:19:54,960 just as real as that 517 00:19:59,510 --> 00:19:57,480 but in addition you are then quickly 518 00:20:01,970 --> 00:19:59,520 taken to a different environment 519 00:20:04,310 --> 00:20:01,980 altogether now sometimes this 520 00:20:06,890 --> 00:20:04,320 environment seems to be in an alternate 521 00:20:08,870 --> 00:20:06,900 kind of Dimension or alternate realm 522 00:20:10,430 --> 00:20:08,880 alternate State of Consciousness we 523 00:20:12,470 --> 00:20:10,440 don't really have a great way to think 524 00:20:14,870 --> 00:20:12,480 about these things because this 525 00:20:17,630 --> 00:20:14,880 particular construct that people are 526 00:20:20,450 --> 00:20:17,640 taken to report being taken to seems to 527 00:20:22,549 --> 00:20:20,460 be not exactly aligned with our 528 00:20:25,010 --> 00:20:22,559 space-time construct as we usually 529 00:20:26,630 --> 00:20:25,020 experience it now again our model 530 00:20:28,610 --> 00:20:26,640 doesn't know what to do with this yet 531 00:20:31,010 --> 00:20:28,620 and so we quickly try to drop it into 532 00:20:32,990 --> 00:20:31,020 something like a dream or a vision or 533 00:20:35,450 --> 00:20:33,000 some example of hypnagogia like I said 534 00:20:37,490 --> 00:20:35,460 before which is the state between a 535 00:20:39,409 --> 00:20:37,500 waking State and a sleep state 536 00:20:41,270 --> 00:20:39,419 but again this seems to be really 537 00:20:44,029 --> 00:20:41,280 happening but it also stretches our 538 00:20:46,010 --> 00:20:44,039 understanding of what can really happen 539 00:20:47,930 --> 00:20:46,020 now what's also interesting is even 540 00:20:50,450 --> 00:20:47,940 though these are ontologically shocking 541 00:20:52,850 --> 00:20:50,460 experiences and sometimes these others 542 00:20:54,590 --> 00:20:52,860 don't have what you might call a great 543 00:20:56,930 --> 00:20:54,600 bedside manner they're not very 544 00:20:58,430 --> 00:20:56,940 communicative in terms of emotional 545 00:21:01,010 --> 00:20:58,440 awareness in terms of helping people 546 00:21:03,049 --> 00:21:01,020 feel comfortable immediately although 547 00:21:04,789 --> 00:21:03,059 many experiences will tell you they do 548 00:21:06,650 --> 00:21:04,799 have an emotional component it just 549 00:21:08,750 --> 00:21:06,660 manifests differently than ours does 550 00:21:10,789 --> 00:21:08,760 which again shouldn't be surprising 551 00:21:13,070 --> 00:21:10,799 because if they've evolved to be mostly 552 00:21:15,169 --> 00:21:13,080 telepathic in nature then their 553 00:21:17,990 --> 00:21:15,179 communication happens completely mind to 554 00:21:20,570 --> 00:21:18,000 mind you don't need to have gestures and 555 00:21:22,490 --> 00:21:20,580 facial expressions like we do even tone 556 00:21:25,190 --> 00:21:22,500 of voice because all that can be 557 00:21:26,810 --> 00:21:25,200 communicated telepathically and in 558 00:21:29,450 --> 00:21:26,820 addition to that they may just be more 559 00:21:32,270 --> 00:21:29,460 emotionally muted have a narrower range 560 00:21:34,430 --> 00:21:32,280 of emotion than we do now does that 561 00:21:36,950 --> 00:21:34,440 automatically excuse sometimes the 562 00:21:38,690 --> 00:21:36,960 abrupt nature of these encounters does 563 00:21:40,789 --> 00:21:38,700 it excuse the fact that people are not 564 00:21:42,830 --> 00:21:40,799 dealt with in as warm a manner as we 565 00:21:44,990 --> 00:21:42,840 might want to see from apparently 566 00:21:46,750 --> 00:21:45,000 Advanced sophisticated beings that these 567 00:21:49,789 --> 00:21:46,760 seem to be for all intents and purposes 568 00:21:51,770 --> 00:21:49,799 no there is a question there but again 569 00:21:53,690 --> 00:21:51,780 it's not that they're not emotional they 570 00:21:55,850 --> 00:21:53,700 just have a narrower range of emotion in 571 00:21:57,470 --> 00:21:55,860 terms of expression and perhaps because 572 00:21:59,270 --> 00:21:57,480 they are different than us either 573 00:22:02,029 --> 00:21:59,280 because they've evolved to be that way 574 00:22:03,649 --> 00:22:02,039 if they're us from the future perhaps or 575 00:22:05,930 --> 00:22:03,659 just because they are different than us 576 00:22:08,210 --> 00:22:05,940 altogether they don't necessarily 577 00:22:10,610 --> 00:22:08,220 understand perhaps what this puts us 578 00:22:12,830 --> 00:22:10,620 through how shocking this is for the 579 00:22:14,450 --> 00:22:12,840 human system that has evolved to be 580 00:22:16,909 --> 00:22:14,460 aware of certain kinds of possibilities 581 00:22:18,890 --> 00:22:16,919 and a possibility like this makes us go 582 00:22:20,810 --> 00:22:18,900 into fight or flight because of our 583 00:22:22,730 --> 00:22:20,820 evolutionary impulse 584 00:22:24,350 --> 00:22:22,740 they may not be aware of that they may 585 00:22:26,210 --> 00:22:24,360 not be accounting for that which again 586 00:22:28,250 --> 00:22:26,220 is not to entirely excuse the entire 587 00:22:30,710 --> 00:22:28,260 thing but just to say there may be ways 588 00:22:33,230 --> 00:22:30,720 to make sense of this that suggests it's 589 00:22:35,090 --> 00:22:33,240 not necessarily cruel Behavior 590 00:22:36,770 --> 00:22:35,100 and the reason why I've also raised that 591 00:22:39,710 --> 00:22:36,780 possibility is because there's this 592 00:22:41,510 --> 00:22:39,720 uncanny dual aspect to these encounters 593 00:22:43,610 --> 00:22:41,520 because on the one hand they can be 594 00:22:46,070 --> 00:22:43,620 quite ontologically shocking in fact 595 00:22:49,549 --> 00:22:46,080 almost 100 of the time they are at least 596 00:22:51,289 --> 00:22:49,559 initially but these experiencers also 597 00:22:53,990 --> 00:22:51,299 report that these experiences end up 598 00:22:55,130 --> 00:22:54,000 being spiritually transformative much of 599 00:22:56,990 --> 00:22:55,140 the time 600 00:22:59,450 --> 00:22:57,000 they even come to see these beings 601 00:23:02,210 --> 00:22:59,460 sometimes as intermediaries between us 602 00:23:05,570 --> 00:23:02,220 and God or Source if you will the source 603 00:23:07,730 --> 00:23:05,580 of the universe indeed furthermore these 604 00:23:09,529 --> 00:23:07,740 experiencers often report that this 605 00:23:11,990 --> 00:23:09,539 realm they're in with these others feels 606 00:23:14,570 --> 00:23:12,000 more real than this one does which is 607 00:23:16,549 --> 00:23:14,580 confusing to us again because we have no 608 00:23:18,230 --> 00:23:16,559 contrast we have nothing to compare this 609 00:23:20,690 --> 00:23:18,240 to those of us who have not had this 610 00:23:23,210 --> 00:23:20,700 particular experience and again when we 611 00:23:25,669 --> 00:23:23,220 hear alternate realm alternate State of 612 00:23:27,649 --> 00:23:25,679 Consciousness that to many people in the 613 00:23:30,710 --> 00:23:27,659 general public will feel less real 614 00:23:32,210 --> 00:23:30,720 something other than reality and yet 615 00:23:33,830 --> 00:23:32,220 what's interesting is the experience 616 00:23:36,470 --> 00:23:33,840 that visceral experience is that that 617 00:23:38,930 --> 00:23:36,480 actually feels more real than real that 618 00:23:41,210 --> 00:23:38,940 is to say more real than this 619 00:23:43,549 --> 00:23:41,220 but this is a key part we cannot get 620 00:23:45,409 --> 00:23:43,559 past again the vast majority of people 621 00:23:47,330 --> 00:23:45,419 especially when given enough time to 622 00:23:50,450 --> 00:23:47,340 reflect on their experiences and to 623 00:23:52,130 --> 00:23:50,460 overcome the initial ontological shock a 624 00:23:55,130 --> 00:23:52,140 vast majority come to see these 625 00:23:56,570 --> 00:23:55,140 experiences as interpreted as positive 626 00:23:58,430 --> 00:23:56,580 because again we always have 627 00:24:00,409 --> 00:23:58,440 interpretation being part of the 628 00:24:01,970 --> 00:24:00,419 experience here you have an initial 629 00:24:04,909 --> 00:24:01,980 experience and then you interpret it 630 00:24:07,250 --> 00:24:04,919 based on your models of reality your 631 00:24:10,370 --> 00:24:07,260 expectations and your interactions with 632 00:24:11,690 --> 00:24:10,380 human beings over time and that will of 633 00:24:13,850 --> 00:24:11,700 course reflect on how you think about 634 00:24:17,090 --> 00:24:13,860 these experiences but when people are 635 00:24:18,890 --> 00:24:17,100 especially given time to reflect they 636 00:24:21,529 --> 00:24:18,900 often come to see these as spiritually 637 00:24:23,510 --> 00:24:21,539 transformative and ultimately positive 638 00:24:26,390 --> 00:24:23,520 and again as we've discussed on other 639 00:24:29,570 --> 00:24:26,400 episodes this often results in an actual 640 00:24:31,370 --> 00:24:29,580 worldview change where people are quite 641 00:24:33,830 --> 00:24:31,380 different than they used to be prior to 642 00:24:36,770 --> 00:24:33,840 the event and they don't walk around in 643 00:24:38,090 --> 00:24:36,780 fear and turmoil most of them don't most 644 00:24:40,130 --> 00:24:38,100 of them actually are changed in a 645 00:24:42,169 --> 00:24:40,140 positive way but we would consider a 646 00:24:44,690 --> 00:24:42,179 positive way according to measurements 647 00:24:46,010 --> 00:24:44,700 like they become less materialistic they 648 00:24:48,529 --> 00:24:46,020 become more concerned about the 649 00:24:50,750 --> 00:24:48,539 environment and animals they become more 650 00:24:53,570 --> 00:24:50,760 concerned about their neighbors and more 651 00:24:55,610 --> 00:24:53,580 ready to change their behavior even 652 00:24:57,950 --> 00:24:55,620 change their lifestyle or their career 653 00:25:00,350 --> 00:24:57,960 sometimes to reflect the change in 654 00:25:01,730 --> 00:25:00,360 perspective they've undergone because of 655 00:25:03,950 --> 00:25:01,740 these experiences 656 00:25:05,330 --> 00:25:03,960 which again flies in the face of what we 657 00:25:07,789 --> 00:25:05,340 think about initially when we think 658 00:25:09,649 --> 00:25:07,799 about abduction because again there's a 659 00:25:11,510 --> 00:25:09,659 lot of negative hype with that 660 00:25:13,310 --> 00:25:11,520 especially considering the way that 661 00:25:15,770 --> 00:25:13,320 Hollywood and whatnot has often 662 00:25:19,370 --> 00:25:15,780 portrayed these events they often hype 663 00:25:21,169 --> 00:25:19,380 up the fear the shock the turmoil and 664 00:25:23,390 --> 00:25:21,179 often this is because this is what sells 665 00:25:24,830 --> 00:25:23,400 tickets unfortunately based on the 666 00:25:27,409 --> 00:25:24,840 current center of gravity of our 667 00:25:29,630 --> 00:25:27,419 Consciousness on this planet 668 00:25:32,029 --> 00:25:29,640 I also want to make the point that this 669 00:25:34,250 --> 00:25:32,039 spiritual transformation this change in 670 00:25:37,010 --> 00:25:34,260 world view is not an unintended 671 00:25:39,470 --> 00:25:37,020 byproduct of these experiences to the 672 00:25:41,450 --> 00:25:39,480 contrary these beings whatever they are 673 00:25:45,110 --> 00:25:41,460 whether they're us from the future or an 674 00:25:47,630 --> 00:25:45,120 alternate version of us or a alien being 675 00:25:49,370 --> 00:25:47,640 altogether they go out of their way to 676 00:25:51,470 --> 00:25:49,380 make it very clear to the human beings 677 00:25:54,409 --> 00:25:51,480 they're communicating with that human 678 00:25:55,789 --> 00:25:54,419 civilization is on a crash course that 679 00:25:59,149 --> 00:25:55,799 if we do not change our current 680 00:26:00,950 --> 00:25:59,159 trajectory bad things await us and not 681 00:26:02,870 --> 00:26:00,960 because of some sort of punishment doled 682 00:26:05,269 --> 00:26:02,880 out by some sort of God or some higher 683 00:26:07,610 --> 00:26:05,279 intelligent being but because this is 684 00:26:10,130 --> 00:26:07,620 just what happens when you embark on a 685 00:26:11,990 --> 00:26:10,140 trajectory that is doomed to failure 686 00:26:13,909 --> 00:26:12,000 when you are part of a system that is 687 00:26:15,710 --> 00:26:13,919 unsustainable and that's what they see 688 00:26:18,110 --> 00:26:15,720 when they see not just our Consciousness 689 00:26:20,269 --> 00:26:18,120 based so much on fear and greed and 690 00:26:21,769 --> 00:26:20,279 negative elements like that but also 691 00:26:24,710 --> 00:26:21,779 what we're doing to the environment how 692 00:26:27,409 --> 00:26:24,720 we're basically killing the planet that 693 00:26:29,630 --> 00:26:27,419 we exist upon they see that they see 694 00:26:31,370 --> 00:26:29,640 that it's not going well and again if 695 00:26:32,870 --> 00:26:31,380 they are us from the future or even 696 00:26:34,310 --> 00:26:32,880 beings that seem to be able to move 697 00:26:36,409 --> 00:26:34,320 through time and they certainly seem to 698 00:26:38,029 --> 00:26:36,419 demonstrate that then we should take 699 00:26:40,610 --> 00:26:38,039 this very seriously I would suggest 700 00:26:43,310 --> 00:26:40,620 because this is not just idle banter 701 00:26:45,049 --> 00:26:43,320 they are perhaps relying on what they 702 00:26:47,029 --> 00:26:45,059 know will happen according to our 703 00:26:49,070 --> 00:26:47,039 current trajectory and so they go out of 704 00:26:51,649 --> 00:26:49,080 their way to impress upon human beings 705 00:26:53,510 --> 00:26:51,659 that they interact with you must wake up 706 00:26:55,909 --> 00:26:53,520 and not just you but your Collective 707 00:26:58,070 --> 00:26:55,919 civilization must wake up you must 708 00:27:00,169 --> 00:26:58,080 change course or something really 709 00:27:02,269 --> 00:27:00,179 negative awaits you something like a 710 00:27:04,190 --> 00:27:02,279 cataclysm and again as I've said before 711 00:27:06,890 --> 00:27:04,200 on recent podcasts that might not be 712 00:27:08,269 --> 00:27:06,900 just some random Cosmic event what seems 713 00:27:11,149 --> 00:27:08,279 to be suggested here is that it's 714 00:27:12,890 --> 00:27:11,159 actually something of our own making 715 00:27:14,930 --> 00:27:12,900 so this is something we really need to 716 00:27:16,010 --> 00:27:14,940 take to heart this is Central to these 717 00:27:17,750 --> 00:27:16,020 encounters 718 00:27:19,549 --> 00:27:17,760 and here I would also add that while 719 00:27:21,769 --> 00:27:19,559 these particular kinds of abductions as 720 00:27:24,890 --> 00:27:21,779 part of this reproduction program seem 721 00:27:27,049 --> 00:27:24,900 to have come to a close experiencers are 722 00:27:29,269 --> 00:27:27,059 still having telepathic downloads with 723 00:27:31,630 --> 00:27:29,279 these beings and other beings and are 724 00:27:34,370 --> 00:27:31,640 being impressed upon again about the 725 00:27:35,990 --> 00:27:34,380 Doomsday coming for us if we don't 726 00:27:38,269 --> 00:27:36,000 change course so this is not something 727 00:27:40,490 --> 00:27:38,279 that ended around the turn of Millennium 728 00:27:42,950 --> 00:27:40,500 these messages are still very much front 729 00:27:44,990 --> 00:27:42,960 and center and indeed you could suggest 730 00:27:46,669 --> 00:27:45,000 they're actually increasing both in 731 00:27:49,370 --> 00:27:46,679 terms of number and in terms of 732 00:27:50,630 --> 00:27:49,380 amplitude in terms of the urgency that 733 00:27:52,789 --> 00:27:50,640 is passed on 734 00:27:54,610 --> 00:27:52,799 now again as I already mentioned many of 735 00:27:58,430 --> 00:27:54,620 the experiencers of this particular 736 00:27:59,870 --> 00:27:58,440 historical reproductive program say it's 737 00:28:01,490 --> 00:27:59,880 not just that the experience was 738 00:28:03,529 --> 00:28:01,500 ontologically shocking even though it 739 00:28:05,690 --> 00:28:03,539 was and then sometimes traumatizing very 740 00:28:07,610 --> 00:28:05,700 often the case they often come to 741 00:28:10,430 --> 00:28:07,620 believe that it actually is part of some 742 00:28:12,470 --> 00:28:10,440 move towards a greater good and to the 743 00:28:15,169 --> 00:28:12,480 end I want to quote from the book here 744 00:28:17,870 --> 00:28:15,179 quote Jerry does not feel that they want 745 00:28:19,669 --> 00:28:17,880 to cause me fear and pain and Agony and 746 00:28:22,250 --> 00:28:19,679 deep down inside I think that what 747 00:28:25,190 --> 00:28:22,260 they're doing is somehow necessary it 748 00:28:27,529 --> 00:28:25,200 has to do she said with races beings or 749 00:28:30,350 --> 00:28:27,539 whatever coming together to make another 750 00:28:32,690 --> 00:28:30,360 creation this was very important she 751 00:28:34,909 --> 00:28:32,700 said and as a single person compared to 752 00:28:36,590 --> 00:28:34,919 this big huge thing going on I should 753 00:28:39,529 --> 00:28:36,600 look Beyond Myself and know that it's 754 00:28:42,230 --> 00:28:39,539 for the greater good unquote and then 755 00:28:43,430 --> 00:28:42,240 later on this same abductee is quoted as 756 00:28:45,830 --> 00:28:43,440 saying quote 757 00:28:48,169 --> 00:28:45,840 at the end of this session Jerry said I 758 00:28:50,029 --> 00:28:48,179 really do think that they do exist they 759 00:28:52,549 --> 00:28:50,039 are real and they are interacting with 760 00:28:54,890 --> 00:28:52,559 us obviously not in any form that we're 761 00:28:57,230 --> 00:28:54,900 used to there's a reason they're doing 762 00:28:59,149 --> 00:28:57,240 this she added she feels that they are 763 00:29:02,149 --> 00:28:59,159 making whatever you want to label it 764 00:29:03,529 --> 00:29:02,159 another whole civilization she does not 765 00:29:05,630 --> 00:29:03,539 know whether they're going to take it 766 00:29:07,669 --> 00:29:05,640 and place it somewhere else or it's 767 00:29:10,549 --> 00:29:07,679 going to be introduced here 768 00:29:12,529 --> 00:29:10,559 Jerry like many abductees has dreams of 769 00:29:14,810 --> 00:29:12,539 the world as we know it coming to an end 770 00:29:17,330 --> 00:29:14,820 and relates her breeding role to this 771 00:29:19,210 --> 00:29:17,340 eventuality unquote 772 00:29:21,529 --> 00:29:19,220 which again this speaks to the fact that 773 00:29:23,090 --> 00:29:21,539 when these beings are being created 774 00:29:25,789 --> 00:29:23,100 these hybrid beings it raises the 775 00:29:27,409 --> 00:29:25,799 question to what end some people believe 776 00:29:29,149 --> 00:29:27,419 that it's two populated different 777 00:29:30,889 --> 00:29:29,159 planets somewhere else 778 00:29:33,470 --> 00:29:30,899 but for many of these experiencers 779 00:29:35,630 --> 00:29:33,480 there's this sense that one this could 780 00:29:36,889 --> 00:29:35,640 be a Fail-Safe in case we wipe ourselves 781 00:29:39,230 --> 00:29:36,899 out that they would have a way of 782 00:29:40,669 --> 00:29:39,240 introducing some element of humanity 783 00:29:42,049 --> 00:29:40,679 again even though we would be a 784 00:29:44,090 --> 00:29:42,059 different version of ourselves because 785 00:29:46,730 --> 00:29:44,100 we would have the hybrid nature in terms 786 00:29:48,350 --> 00:29:46,740 of the alien input as well a bit of half 787 00:29:50,450 --> 00:29:48,360 and half in other words 788 00:29:52,549 --> 00:29:50,460 or it could be that these hybrids will 789 00:29:54,710 --> 00:29:52,559 actually help us in the future they will 790 00:29:56,930 --> 00:29:54,720 be introduced to the planet so that we 791 00:29:59,029 --> 00:29:56,940 can live in harmony together and perhaps 792 00:30:00,950 --> 00:29:59,039 both benefit from each other there is 793 00:30:04,130 --> 00:30:00,960 this kind of symbiotic relationship 794 00:30:06,169 --> 00:30:04,140 often referred to or at least implied 795 00:30:07,789 --> 00:30:06,179 but at the same time before we can get 796 00:30:10,190 --> 00:30:07,799 to this point in history where we could 797 00:30:12,169 --> 00:30:10,200 perhaps live side by side they know that 798 00:30:14,029 --> 00:30:12,179 we have to overcome some of our fear 799 00:30:16,010 --> 00:30:14,039 some of our fight-or-flight mechanism 800 00:30:18,649 --> 00:30:16,020 that's deeply part of the lizard brain 801 00:30:20,930 --> 00:30:18,659 that is part of our history one of the 802 00:30:23,450 --> 00:30:20,940 adjectives Scott talks about this when 803 00:30:25,850 --> 00:30:23,460 he talks about his human side first 804 00:30:27,950 --> 00:30:25,860 dealing with what these others represent 805 00:30:29,810 --> 00:30:27,960 and just how different they are and how 806 00:30:31,970 --> 00:30:29,820 he recognizes that his initial response 807 00:30:35,750 --> 00:30:31,980 is not necessarily reasonable 808 00:30:37,190 --> 00:30:35,760 quote Scott grasped then why he had 809 00:30:40,010 --> 00:30:37,200 never wanted to look directly at the 810 00:30:42,529 --> 00:30:40,020 beings with some struggle he said my 811 00:30:45,710 --> 00:30:42,539 humanist doesn't want to see this what 812 00:30:47,990 --> 00:30:45,720 is this I asked them The Human Side he 813 00:30:50,750 --> 00:30:48,000 continued cannot handle the other side 814 00:30:53,450 --> 00:30:50,760 the human being in him reacts with fear 815 00:30:55,430 --> 00:30:53,460 like an animal they appear to be animals 816 00:30:57,950 --> 00:30:55,440 and you act like a scared animal it's 817 00:31:00,049 --> 00:30:57,960 instant nevertheless he emphasized 818 00:31:02,389 --> 00:31:00,059 humans must stop and realize that the 819 00:31:04,430 --> 00:31:02,399 aliens whom is a child he called the 820 00:31:07,850 --> 00:31:04,440 inkies because of their large black eyes 821 00:31:09,529 --> 00:31:07,860 like ourselves are alive we need to 822 00:31:11,870 --> 00:31:09,539 learn that even though we look different 823 00:31:13,549 --> 00:31:11,880 and we think different we're all life 824 00:31:15,529 --> 00:31:13,559 unquote 825 00:31:17,570 --> 00:31:15,539 now you notice there that he said the 826 00:31:20,389 --> 00:31:17,580 human part which implies there being 827 00:31:22,909 --> 00:31:20,399 another part and indeed this is also a 828 00:31:24,049 --> 00:31:22,919 very interesting intriguing part of the 829 00:31:25,789 --> 00:31:24,059 narrative when it comes to the 830 00:31:28,549 --> 00:31:25,799 historical literature to do with 831 00:31:31,549 --> 00:31:28,559 abductees many of them come to believe 832 00:31:33,169 --> 00:31:31,559 realize that they actually have a hybrid 833 00:31:35,510 --> 00:31:33,179 nature themselves that they have a 834 00:31:36,830 --> 00:31:35,520 different kind of persona sometimes a 835 00:31:39,710 --> 00:31:36,840 different history from a different 836 00:31:42,049 --> 00:31:39,720 lifetime even as a part of one of them 837 00:31:44,090 --> 00:31:42,059 quote unquote one of these others they 838 00:31:46,610 --> 00:31:44,100 even have memories sometimes of 839 00:31:48,529 --> 00:31:46,620 experiencing life as one of them and can 840 00:31:51,830 --> 00:31:48,539 even experience how they 841 00:31:53,690 --> 00:31:51,840 relate to life differently this is what 842 00:31:56,510 --> 00:31:53,700 he says at one point about what perhaps 843 00:31:59,750 --> 00:31:56,520 happened to them that made them so wary 844 00:32:01,490 --> 00:31:59,760 of the course that we are on quote at 845 00:32:03,710 --> 00:32:01,500 this point in the session Scott shifted 846 00:32:05,990 --> 00:32:03,720 to perceiving from the alien perspective 847 00:32:08,750 --> 00:32:06,000 and he saw the Earth as a blue body 848 00:32:11,269 --> 00:32:08,760 below him he had chosen to come here 849 00:32:14,090 --> 00:32:11,279 from another planet because it was quote 850 00:32:15,950 --> 00:32:14,100 closest to where we're from unquote he 851 00:32:18,409 --> 00:32:15,960 did not know the name of that planet but 852 00:32:20,690 --> 00:32:18,419 it was yellow mostly desert and lacking 853 00:32:22,789 --> 00:32:20,700 water once there had been trees and 854 00:32:25,909 --> 00:32:22,799 water but something having to do with 855 00:32:28,210 --> 00:32:25,919 science he does not know just what went 856 00:32:31,250 --> 00:32:28,220 wrong and his people went underground 857 00:32:33,669 --> 00:32:31,260 Scott felt sick inside and sobbed as he 858 00:32:36,049 --> 00:32:33,679 told of how science destroyed our planet 859 00:32:38,210 --> 00:32:36,059 naturally I was curious to know if Scott 860 00:32:40,610 --> 00:32:38,220 had any other further information about 861 00:32:43,070 --> 00:32:40,620 how this had come about but he did not 862 00:32:45,590 --> 00:32:43,080 except to observe that somehow the alien 863 00:32:47,210 --> 00:32:45,600 species knew before the destruction 864 00:32:49,370 --> 00:32:47,220 occurred but seems to have been 865 00:32:51,049 --> 00:32:49,380 powerless to prevent it after the 866 00:32:52,909 --> 00:32:51,059 regression he recalled that the 867 00:32:54,830 --> 00:32:52,919 destruction had occurred because of 868 00:32:57,230 --> 00:32:54,840 something they made they couldn't stop 869 00:33:00,830 --> 00:32:57,240 and that on their Planet the aliens live 870 00:33:02,690 --> 00:33:00,840 in an artificial environment unquote 871 00:33:04,010 --> 00:33:02,700 so again this is very interesting you 872 00:33:05,389 --> 00:33:04,020 could look at this different ways you 873 00:33:06,889 --> 00:33:05,399 could say this is actually a different 874 00:33:08,930 --> 00:33:06,899 planet and these really are 875 00:33:11,269 --> 00:33:08,940 extraterrestrial beings in the purest 876 00:33:13,250 --> 00:33:11,279 sense of that term or you could perhaps 877 00:33:15,710 --> 00:33:13,260 even suggest that they are us from the 878 00:33:17,690 --> 00:33:15,720 future in an alternate Earth or the 879 00:33:19,310 --> 00:33:17,700 Earth in a different timeline or just a 880 00:33:21,049 --> 00:33:19,320 future Earth and that what they're 881 00:33:23,090 --> 00:33:21,059 referring to is actually then 882 00:33:24,769 --> 00:33:23,100 experiencing the consequences of our 883 00:33:27,289 --> 00:33:24,779 actions to some degree and that again 884 00:33:29,930 --> 00:33:27,299 would speak to why they're so pressing 885 00:33:32,330 --> 00:33:29,940 about this coming cataclysm this problem 886 00:33:34,730 --> 00:33:32,340 that we do face if we don't change the 887 00:33:37,130 --> 00:33:34,740 course of our current trajectory 888 00:33:39,230 --> 00:33:37,140 now speaking to this possibility that 889 00:33:41,509 --> 00:33:39,240 they could be us from the future or at 890 00:33:43,250 --> 00:33:41,519 least related to us in some way there 891 00:33:45,049 --> 00:33:43,260 are actually times that abductees that 892 00:33:47,570 --> 00:33:45,059 are part of these regressions that Dr 893 00:33:49,610 --> 00:33:47,580 John Mack is conducting actually refer 894 00:33:51,590 --> 00:33:49,620 to this notion of the future being 895 00:33:52,549 --> 00:33:51,600 referenced in their contact with these 896 00:33:54,649 --> 00:33:52,559 beings 897 00:33:56,570 --> 00:33:54,659 quitting again from the book here quote 898 00:34:00,470 --> 00:33:56,580 in the months prior to our first 899 00:34:02,350 --> 00:34:00,480 hypnosis session on August 11 1992 Jerry 900 00:34:04,850 --> 00:34:02,360 continued to have abduction experiences 901 00:34:07,070 --> 00:34:04,860 including one episode just three weeks 902 00:34:09,889 --> 00:34:07,080 before in which she consciously recalled 903 00:34:13,129 --> 00:34:09,899 seeing a UFO close up and being taken by 904 00:34:15,470 --> 00:34:13,139 humanoid beings whose attitude she felt 905 00:34:18,050 --> 00:34:15,480 was loving and benevolent into the ship 906 00:34:20,629 --> 00:34:18,060 there she saw shelves with instruments 907 00:34:23,149 --> 00:34:20,639 and vials was Seated on a chair or table 908 00:34:25,609 --> 00:34:23,159 and had a complex dialogue with alien 909 00:34:27,589 --> 00:34:25,619 she felt were quote beyond what we would 910 00:34:29,930 --> 00:34:27,599 think is intelligent or even genius 911 00:34:32,750 --> 00:34:29,940 unquote continuing with a quote here 912 00:34:35,450 --> 00:34:32,760 quote one of them explained that they 913 00:34:37,270 --> 00:34:35,460 came from so far into the future that 914 00:34:39,950 --> 00:34:37,280 she would not be able to comprehend 915 00:34:41,869 --> 00:34:39,960 Jerry remembers saying to herself this 916 00:34:45,169 --> 00:34:41,879 is great I can see everything and I am 917 00:34:47,089 --> 00:34:45,179 so aware in her journal she concluded I 918 00:34:48,889 --> 00:34:47,099 was convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt 919 00:34:50,869 --> 00:34:48,899 that what I was experiencing was real 920 00:34:53,990 --> 00:34:50,879 they looked at me with their loving and 921 00:34:56,329 --> 00:34:54,000 all-knowing smile and simply said yes I 922 00:34:58,609 --> 00:34:56,339 then said well if this is real then I am 923 00:35:00,290 --> 00:34:58,619 somehow living a double life I had a 924 00:35:02,450 --> 00:35:00,300 feeling there was a definite reason that 925 00:35:04,910 --> 00:35:02,460 I and others like me were not aware of 926 00:35:06,829 --> 00:35:04,920 this other reality at least not as aware 927 00:35:10,130 --> 00:35:06,839 as we are about this reality we have 928 00:35:12,290 --> 00:35:10,140 here and now unquote again this speaks 929 00:35:14,810 --> 00:35:12,300 to the Dual nature that some of these 930 00:35:16,550 --> 00:35:14,820 abductees end up experiencing after 931 00:35:18,230 --> 00:35:16,560 being in contact with these others where 932 00:35:20,450 --> 00:35:18,240 they themselves even feel like they have 933 00:35:23,089 --> 00:35:20,460 another capacity within them another 934 00:35:25,010 --> 00:35:23,099 Persona that comes online sometimes at 935 00:35:27,109 --> 00:35:25,020 least fully online when they're in the 936 00:35:30,170 --> 00:35:27,119 presence of these others 937 00:35:33,109 --> 00:35:30,180 now as many people realize part of these 938 00:35:35,630 --> 00:35:33,119 abduction accounts also involve human 939 00:35:37,849 --> 00:35:35,640 beings being shown apocalyptic images of 940 00:35:40,310 --> 00:35:37,859 the earth cataclysmic images where the 941 00:35:42,650 --> 00:35:40,320 Earth seems to be in great distress and 942 00:35:45,290 --> 00:35:42,660 often the implication is because of the 943 00:35:47,270 --> 00:35:45,300 actions of humanity that our actions 944 00:35:48,170 --> 00:35:47,280 create this kind of scenario in the 945 00:35:50,150 --> 00:35:48,180 future 946 00:35:52,910 --> 00:35:50,160 now at one point one of these abductees 947 00:35:54,770 --> 00:35:52,920 actually asks about these theatrics as 948 00:35:56,990 --> 00:35:54,780 she calls them why do they use these 949 00:35:58,490 --> 00:35:57,000 theatrics to communicate with us because 950 00:36:00,290 --> 00:35:58,500 sometimes it's not a literal thing 951 00:36:02,870 --> 00:36:00,300 sometimes it's more of a symbolic thing 952 00:36:05,870 --> 00:36:02,880 even if the end result really does mean 953 00:36:08,450 --> 00:36:05,880 cataclysm disaster Etc 954 00:36:10,069 --> 00:36:08,460 quoting from the book again quote she 955 00:36:12,470 --> 00:36:10,079 asked the aliens why they needed to use 956 00:36:14,810 --> 00:36:12,480 such theatrics to show her this and 957 00:36:17,750 --> 00:36:14,820 their reply was to make you understand 958 00:36:20,150 --> 00:36:17,760 to comprehend the implications to put 959 00:36:21,589 --> 00:36:20,160 you in the right frame of mind and I'm 960 00:36:22,730 --> 00:36:21,599 kind of like hey now we're getting 961 00:36:24,349 --> 00:36:22,740 someplace 962 00:36:26,870 --> 00:36:24,359 she also seemed to learn from this 963 00:36:30,829 --> 00:36:26,880 episode that certain emotions like love 964 00:36:33,710 --> 00:36:30,839 caring helpfulness compassion are the 965 00:36:37,069 --> 00:36:33,720 key whereas others like anger hatred and 966 00:36:38,990 --> 00:36:37,079 fear are not useful especially fear fear 967 00:36:41,450 --> 00:36:39,000 is like the worst one they are trying to 968 00:36:43,310 --> 00:36:41,460 get me to get over fear and that's why 969 00:36:45,349 --> 00:36:43,320 they were trying to scare me so badly 970 00:36:47,210 --> 00:36:45,359 because I would eventually get sick of 971 00:36:49,609 --> 00:36:47,220 it and get over it and get on to the 972 00:36:51,410 --> 00:36:49,619 more important things unquote 973 00:36:53,150 --> 00:36:51,420 now again perhaps some people would 974 00:36:55,069 --> 00:36:53,160 question this bedside manner question if 975 00:36:56,510 --> 00:36:55,079 this is the best way to do it but what 976 00:36:58,190 --> 00:36:56,520 she seems to gather from these 977 00:37:00,589 --> 00:36:58,200 experiences is they're actually trying 978 00:37:03,050 --> 00:37:00,599 to sort of shock her into a new level of 979 00:37:04,790 --> 00:37:03,060 awareness and it is true even when we 980 00:37:06,589 --> 00:37:04,800 look at some of the data around other 981 00:37:08,750 --> 00:37:06,599 kinds of Transformations that lead to 982 00:37:11,270 --> 00:37:08,760 World Views changing that have nothing 983 00:37:14,510 --> 00:37:11,280 to do with the UFO phenomenon or aliens 984 00:37:16,670 --> 00:37:14,520 as it were often it is trauma that puts 985 00:37:19,069 --> 00:37:16,680 people into a frame of mind that allows 986 00:37:21,349 --> 00:37:19,079 for this catapulting into an entirely 987 00:37:23,390 --> 00:37:21,359 new way of seeing themselves and the 988 00:37:25,250 --> 00:37:23,400 world around them so that seems to be 989 00:37:26,990 --> 00:37:25,260 part and parcel of what's going on here 990 00:37:29,030 --> 00:37:27,000 that some of this shock is actually 991 00:37:30,950 --> 00:37:29,040 intended not just because it's a 992 00:37:32,390 --> 00:37:30,960 unfortunate byproduct of what they're 993 00:37:35,270 --> 00:37:32,400 doing as part of the hybridization 994 00:37:37,490 --> 00:37:35,280 experiment but it's also meant to create 995 00:37:39,349 --> 00:37:37,500 a new level of awareness a breakthrough 996 00:37:41,150 --> 00:37:39,359 and even as Willie stribers talked about 997 00:37:42,950 --> 00:37:41,160 the greatest possibility of 998 00:37:44,270 --> 00:37:42,960 transformation in the history of 999 00:37:46,790 --> 00:37:44,280 humankind 1000 00:37:49,370 --> 00:37:46,800 now getting back to this notion of them 1001 00:37:51,589 --> 00:37:49,380 somehow being us perhaps us from the 1002 00:37:53,870 --> 00:37:51,599 future of some alternate version of us 1003 00:37:55,670 --> 00:37:53,880 this is often referred to 1004 00:37:58,069 --> 00:37:55,680 and there's also this sense that perhaps 1005 00:37:59,569 --> 00:37:58,079 in their evolutionary trajectory they 1006 00:38:01,430 --> 00:37:59,579 have taken a wrong turn that they're 1007 00:38:04,190 --> 00:38:01,440 also trying to course correct and this 1008 00:38:06,470 --> 00:38:04,200 is part of what's in AIM with this 1009 00:38:08,510 --> 00:38:06,480 hybridization program it's not just to 1010 00:38:10,370 --> 00:38:08,520 change some of our negative Tendencies 1011 00:38:12,530 --> 00:38:10,380 but also perhaps to change some of 1012 00:38:13,910 --> 00:38:12,540 theirs or to recover things they've lost 1013 00:38:16,130 --> 00:38:13,920 along the way 1014 00:38:18,470 --> 00:38:16,140 quoting again from the book quote 1015 00:38:21,650 --> 00:38:18,480 I asked Peter how are loving or open 1016 00:38:24,170 --> 00:38:21,660 qualities might serve the beings they 1017 00:38:26,270 --> 00:38:24,180 are human too he suggested and in their 1018 00:38:29,089 --> 00:38:26,280 own Evolution have followed the path of 1019 00:38:31,370 --> 00:38:29,099 almost rational intellectualizing and 1020 00:38:33,589 --> 00:38:31,380 lost much of their emotions and they 1021 00:38:35,990 --> 00:38:33,599 want to get that back and it's through 1022 00:38:38,990 --> 00:38:36,000 our planet and through our race they are 1023 00:38:41,510 --> 00:38:39,000 humanoid Peter said and we evolved from 1024 00:38:43,430 --> 00:38:41,520 the same place but we've stayed in our 1025 00:38:46,250 --> 00:38:43,440 emotions and our emotions have ruled the 1026 00:38:48,770 --> 00:38:46,260 planet how we react as a race comes from 1027 00:38:50,750 --> 00:38:48,780 our emotions in their evolution they 1028 00:38:53,030 --> 00:38:50,760 chose to react from intellect or from 1029 00:38:55,310 --> 00:38:53,040 mentality they're willing to share their 1030 00:38:57,770 --> 00:38:55,320 intellectual growth with us if we can 1031 00:38:59,150 --> 00:38:57,780 share our emotions with them but at the 1032 00:39:01,430 --> 00:38:59,160 same time they are afraid of the 1033 00:39:03,109 --> 00:39:01,440 destructive part of our emotions it 1034 00:39:05,810 --> 00:39:03,119 could be a beautiful marriage almost 1035 00:39:07,849 --> 00:39:05,820 Peter observed unquote 1036 00:39:09,710 --> 00:39:07,859 again this speaks to the possibilities 1037 00:39:12,829 --> 00:39:09,720 of the intention behind this 1038 00:39:15,170 --> 00:39:12,839 hybridization program one possibility is 1039 00:39:16,849 --> 00:39:15,180 that it's to deal with the possibility 1040 00:39:18,650 --> 00:39:16,859 that we might wipe ourselves out and 1041 00:39:20,270 --> 00:39:18,660 they would have a way of repopulating 1042 00:39:22,730 --> 00:39:20,280 the planet or repopulating a different 1043 00:39:25,430 --> 00:39:22,740 planet with something that was basically 1044 00:39:26,930 --> 00:39:25,440 human even if it was a hybrid human but 1045 00:39:28,730 --> 00:39:26,940 there's also this possibility that even 1046 00:39:31,190 --> 00:39:28,740 if we don't get to that point where we 1047 00:39:32,750 --> 00:39:31,200 blow ourselves up that this could create 1048 00:39:34,849 --> 00:39:32,760 a possibility where there would be a new 1049 00:39:37,730 --> 00:39:34,859 kind of hybrid being that would have the 1050 00:39:39,589 --> 00:39:37,740 best of both races that seems to be very 1051 00:39:41,329 --> 00:39:39,599 much at the center of this and we should 1052 00:39:42,109 --> 00:39:41,339 consider both possibilities moving 1053 00:39:46,609 --> 00:39:42,119 forward 1054 00:39:48,349 --> 00:39:46,619 they have to offer us again what's 1055 00:39:51,710 --> 00:39:48,359 implied here and what many abductees 1056 00:39:53,510 --> 00:39:51,720 speak to is that they have a vast and 1057 00:39:56,210 --> 00:39:53,520 sophisticated understanding of reality 1058 00:39:58,430 --> 00:39:56,220 that makes ours pale in comparison so 1059 00:40:00,650 --> 00:39:58,440 they have much to offer Us in terms of 1060 00:40:02,990 --> 00:40:00,660 realizing much more about the nature of 1061 00:40:05,210 --> 00:40:03,000 reality and speaking to this very Point 1062 00:40:07,970 --> 00:40:05,220 John Mack is quoted as saying in this 1063 00:40:09,589 --> 00:40:07,980 book quote quite a few abductees have 1064 00:40:11,870 --> 00:40:09,599 spoken to me of their sense that at 1065 00:40:13,790 --> 00:40:11,880 least some of their experiences are not 1066 00:40:15,770 --> 00:40:13,800 occurring within the physical space-time 1067 00:40:18,170 --> 00:40:15,780 dimensions of the universe as we 1068 00:40:20,210 --> 00:40:18,180 comprehend it they speak of aliens 1069 00:40:22,970 --> 00:40:20,220 breaking through From Another Dimension 1070 00:40:25,430 --> 00:40:22,980 through a slit or crack in some sort of 1071 00:40:28,190 --> 00:40:25,440 barrier entering our world from Beyond 1072 00:40:29,990 --> 00:40:28,200 the Veil abductees some of whom have 1073 00:40:32,569 --> 00:40:30,000 little education to prepare them to 1074 00:40:35,030 --> 00:40:32,579 explain about such abstractions or odd 1075 00:40:36,829 --> 00:40:35,040 dislocations will speak of the collapse 1076 00:40:39,290 --> 00:40:36,839 of space-time that occurs during their 1077 00:40:41,630 --> 00:40:39,300 experiences they experience the aliens 1078 00:40:44,329 --> 00:40:41,640 indeed their abductions themselves as 1079 00:40:46,569 --> 00:40:44,339 happening in another reality although 1080 00:40:50,089 --> 00:40:46,579 one that is as powerfully actual to them 1081 00:40:52,130 --> 00:40:50,099 as or more so than the familiar physical 1082 00:40:54,050 --> 00:40:52,140 world unquote 1083 00:40:56,930 --> 00:40:54,060 again this speaks to the fact that not 1084 00:40:59,270 --> 00:40:56,940 that this happens outside of reality but 1085 00:41:01,790 --> 00:40:59,280 that our notion of reality is truncated 1086 00:41:04,250 --> 00:41:01,800 limited that what they have to give us 1087 00:41:06,710 --> 00:41:04,260 is a much broader expense in terms of 1088 00:41:08,210 --> 00:41:06,720 our understanding and I would suggest to 1089 00:41:10,370 --> 00:41:08,220 you that this greater understanding 1090 00:41:12,589 --> 00:41:10,380 could help eclipse the current 1091 00:41:14,510 --> 00:41:12,599 physicalist Paradigm in which we all 1092 00:41:16,730 --> 00:41:14,520 seem to be trapped which is partly 1093 00:41:19,370 --> 00:41:16,740 causing some of the problems we have as 1094 00:41:22,250 --> 00:41:19,380 a civilization that seems unmoored from 1095 00:41:24,950 --> 00:41:22,260 our underlying overarching spiritual 1096 00:41:26,750 --> 00:41:24,960 connection to all that is indeed that's 1097 00:41:28,910 --> 00:41:26,760 what many of these beings not just these 1098 00:41:31,130 --> 00:41:28,920 ones but other ones the reported as 1099 00:41:32,930 --> 00:41:31,140 being interactive with very often say 1100 00:41:35,390 --> 00:41:32,940 that they feel sorry for Humanity 1101 00:41:37,490 --> 00:41:35,400 because we have lost that sense of being 1102 00:41:39,650 --> 00:41:37,500 Connected To Source and that's leading 1103 00:41:41,750 --> 00:41:39,660 to part of the collective Insanity we're 1104 00:41:43,250 --> 00:41:41,760 engaged in our current affairs which is 1105 00:41:45,950 --> 00:41:43,260 leading to so many of our problems 1106 00:41:48,170 --> 00:41:45,960 perhaps even I would suggest leading to 1107 00:41:49,550 --> 00:41:48,180 this cataclysm that these others are 1108 00:41:51,589 --> 00:41:49,560 warning us about 1109 00:41:54,829 --> 00:41:51,599 and to that point here's another quote 1110 00:41:57,349 --> 00:41:54,839 from the book quote at the same time as 1111 00:42:00,050 --> 00:41:57,359 I noted abductees become open to the 1112 00:42:01,430 --> 00:42:00,060 presence of a Divine source which fills 1113 00:42:03,230 --> 00:42:01,440 their being and gives a sense of 1114 00:42:05,270 --> 00:42:03,240 connection with a universal 1115 00:42:07,370 --> 00:42:05,280 Consciousness from which they have come 1116 00:42:09,890 --> 00:42:07,380 and to which they will return 1117 00:42:12,650 --> 00:42:09,900 past life experiences which extend the 1118 00:42:15,230 --> 00:42:12,660 sense of self over time in both embodied 1119 00:42:16,970 --> 00:42:15,240 and unembodied form create a further 1120 00:42:18,710 --> 00:42:16,980 expansion of the feeling of what it is 1121 00:42:20,870 --> 00:42:18,720 to be a human being 1122 00:42:22,790 --> 00:42:20,880 finally The Peculiar sense that many 1123 00:42:25,370 --> 00:42:22,800 abductees gain during the regressions 1124 00:42:27,829 --> 00:42:25,380 that they have a dual human alien 1125 00:42:29,089 --> 00:42:27,839 identity reinforces all the above 1126 00:42:31,310 --> 00:42:29,099 processes 1127 00:42:33,710 --> 00:42:31,320 for the alien self is felt to be a kind 1128 00:42:36,230 --> 00:42:33,720 of missing part a soul link to the 1129 00:42:38,329 --> 00:42:36,240 universal Source or Consciousness the 1130 00:42:41,329 --> 00:42:38,339 anima Mundi from which they have been 1131 00:42:43,790 --> 00:42:41,339 cut off unquote 1132 00:42:45,290 --> 00:42:43,800 towards the end of this book Max spends 1133 00:42:47,210 --> 00:42:45,300 some time reflecting on how his 1134 00:42:49,790 --> 00:42:47,220 perspective on the so-called UFO 1135 00:42:52,370 --> 00:42:49,800 phenomenon has changed because of his 1136 00:42:53,870 --> 00:42:52,380 experience with these experiencers in 1137 00:42:55,310 --> 00:42:53,880 these regression sessions getting to 1138 00:42:57,650 --> 00:42:55,320 know these people getting to become 1139 00:42:59,750 --> 00:42:57,660 familiar with the overarching themes 1140 00:43:02,809 --> 00:42:59,760 that arise from these encounters 1141 00:43:05,450 --> 00:43:02,819 and he says the following quote I am 1142 00:43:07,730 --> 00:43:05,460 often asked why if UFOs and abductions 1143 00:43:09,470 --> 00:43:07,740 are real the spaceships do not show up 1144 00:43:11,870 --> 00:43:09,480 in more obvious form 1145 00:43:14,150 --> 00:43:11,880 but only land on the White House lawn is 1146 00:43:16,190 --> 00:43:14,160 the reigning cliche the most popular 1147 00:43:18,530 --> 00:43:16,200 answer to this question among those who 1148 00:43:20,510 --> 00:43:18,540 take the phenomenon seriously is that 1149 00:43:22,550 --> 00:43:20,520 the aliens do not dare to manifest 1150 00:43:24,589 --> 00:43:22,560 themselves more directly government 1151 00:43:26,569 --> 00:43:24,599 leaders would Panic might attack them 1152 00:43:28,490 --> 00:43:26,579 and surely would not know how to avoid 1153 00:43:30,290 --> 00:43:28,500 scaring the rest of us 1154 00:43:32,390 --> 00:43:30,300 I believe that there is a better answer 1155 00:43:33,410 --> 00:43:32,400 to this question one that is more 1156 00:43:35,329 --> 00:43:33,420 consistent with the information 1157 00:43:37,130 --> 00:43:35,339 contained in this book 1158 00:43:39,349 --> 00:43:37,140 the intelligence that appears to be at 1159 00:43:42,230 --> 00:43:39,359 work here simply does not operate that 1160 00:43:45,290 --> 00:43:42,240 way it is subtler and its method is to 1161 00:43:47,510 --> 00:43:45,300 invite to remind to permeate our culture 1162 00:43:50,270 --> 00:43:47,520 from the bottom up as well as the top 1163 00:43:52,490 --> 00:43:50,280 down and to open our Consciousness in a 1164 00:43:53,990 --> 00:43:52,500 way that avoids a conclusion that is 1165 00:43:56,390 --> 00:43:54,000 different from the ways we traditionally 1166 00:43:58,670 --> 00:43:56,400 require it is an intelligence that 1167 00:44:01,370 --> 00:43:58,680 provides enough evidence that something 1168 00:44:03,050 --> 00:44:01,380 profoundly important is at work but it 1169 00:44:05,710 --> 00:44:03,060 does not offer the kinds of proof that 1170 00:44:08,030 --> 00:44:05,720 would satisfy an exclusively empirical 1171 00:44:10,190 --> 00:44:08,040 rationalistic way of thinking 1172 00:44:11,930 --> 00:44:10,200 it is for us to embrace the reality of 1173 00:44:13,849 --> 00:44:11,940 the phenomenon and to take a step 1174 00:44:15,950 --> 00:44:13,859 forward appreciating that we live in a 1175 00:44:19,490 --> 00:44:15,960 universe different from the one in which 1176 00:44:21,650 --> 00:44:19,500 we have been taught to believe unquote 1177 00:44:24,829 --> 00:44:21,660 and at the very close of the book Mack 1178 00:44:27,050 --> 00:44:24,839 again reflects on how them being here at 1179 00:44:29,089 --> 00:44:27,060 this point in history had to do with the 1180 00:44:31,010 --> 00:44:29,099 fact that we are on a course a collision 1181 00:44:34,250 --> 00:44:31,020 course if you will and that their 1182 00:44:37,069 --> 00:44:34,260 communication with us to us was partly 1183 00:44:40,010 --> 00:44:37,079 intended to perhaps change this course 1184 00:44:42,589 --> 00:44:40,020 but again it being up to us ultimately 1185 00:44:45,470 --> 00:44:42,599 what we will do with this information 1186 00:44:47,450 --> 00:44:45,480 quoting from the book quote the alien 1187 00:44:50,030 --> 00:44:47,460 beings have come to the abductees from a 1188 00:44:51,950 --> 00:44:50,040 source that remains unknown to us we 1189 00:44:54,589 --> 00:44:51,960 still do not fully grasp their purposes 1190 00:44:56,809 --> 00:44:54,599 or their methods it seems clear however 1191 00:44:59,270 --> 00:44:56,819 that they have had to come to us 1192 00:45:01,550 --> 00:44:59,280 appearing in material form so that we 1193 00:45:03,650 --> 00:45:01,560 might know them some have speculated 1194 00:45:05,890 --> 00:45:03,660 that the alien beings have mastered time 1195 00:45:08,210 --> 00:45:05,900 travel and come to us from the future 1196 00:45:11,390 --> 00:45:08,220 sometimes they even communicate that 1197 00:45:13,370 --> 00:45:11,400 this might be so we do not know but the 1198 00:45:15,589 --> 00:45:13,380 guiding or regenerative myth of the 1199 00:45:17,690 --> 00:45:15,599 abduction phenomenon offers a new story 1200 00:45:20,930 --> 00:45:17,700 for a world that has survived many 1201 00:45:23,270 --> 00:45:20,940 holocausts and may yet be deterred from 1202 00:45:26,089 --> 00:45:23,280 a final cataclysm the abduction 1203 00:45:28,490 --> 00:45:26,099 phenomenon it seems clear is about what 1204 00:45:30,890 --> 00:45:28,500 is Yet to Come it presents quite 1205 00:45:36,349 --> 00:45:30,900 literally visions of alternative Futures 1206 00:45:38,870 --> 00:45:36,359 but it leaves the choice to us unquote 1207 00:45:40,970 --> 00:45:38,880 and on that note we've come to the close 1208 00:45:42,530 --> 00:45:40,980 of another edition of the point of 1209 00:45:44,150 --> 00:45:42,540 convergence podcast 1210 00:45:48,230 --> 00:45:44,160 if you'd like to support this
