The Contact Experiences of Rene Erik Olsen

How would you, as an experienced ufo investigator, react if a trusted friend and research colleague suddenly announced that he has, for several years, been in physical contact with a group of extraterrestrial visitors? And further claims to have, with several others, been invited on a long journey in space to their home planet in another solar system?

That was the dilemma I faced a few months ago when I read Other Civilizations. Journey To Another Star System by Danish photographer and artist Rene Erik Olsen. I must admit that at first thoughts like these crossed my mind: Is this a joke? Is he trying to test the credulity of the ufo research community? It has taken me a lot of pondering on how to write a review of a book that is both exceedingly controversial and fascinating.


Rene Erik Olsen has published three very interesting ufo books based on his research and first contact experiences in Copenhagen 1990-1992, which I have reviewed in earlier blog articles. We have been corresponding since 2017 and I have found no reason to doubt his sincerety or quality of research. As a professional photographer Rene has thoroughly investigated the photos taken by the contactee Eduard (Billy) Meier, and found them to be fakes. What is even more interesting is Rene´s meticulous study of the 1952 George Adamski photographs, which he considers to be genuine.

On August 15, 2021 I received an email from Rene with the following message: ”This email to inform you that I will not be able to respond to emails as per 13 September 2021 for a period of six month (end of March 2022). You can continue to send emails but I will not respond… You may ask why I will not be able to respond to emails – the reason is that I have the opportunity to do some long-distance traveling. It will simply not be possible for me to ”be on the grid”.”

At the time I thought Rene simply was going on a world tour investigating ufo contact cases and didn´t want to be distracted by too much social media communication. Not until March 10, 2022 did I receive an email again from Rene: ”I am back (returned on 7th of March at 11.30 p.m.) – it has been an amazing journey and a life-changing experience… Book-writing has already begun.”

Rene Erik Olsen

On October 2, 2022 I read a very fascinating interview with ufologist Michel Zirger in New Dawn vol. 16, no 5, UFO Disclosure A Copernican Revolution. Zirger reveal his contacts with a man that together with ”about 500 people travelled to and stayed on a planet outside our solar system… slightly over 400 lights years away from the earth.” I mentioned this article in a email to Rene and on October 9, 2022 he wrote: ”Now comes an announcement from me. I am the source for the Michel Zirger interview. As you may have noticed from my website I will in December publish a last book (I will not write any more books about ”The Visitors”). It will a.o. be an account of my trip (in diary form) and otherwise about ”The Visitors.”

Rene Olsen´s 310 page diary, Other Civilizations. Journey To Another Star System, is certainly a contactee book different from everything else published in the genre. The 169 days diary is richly illustrated with beautiful drawings by Rene and also a few of the photos given him by the Visitors. One of them on the front page of the book. There is also a five page very useful index. A summary of the reason for the space peoples contacts and work on our planet is stated by one of the Visitors: ”The Clandestine Associated Interaction Program was initiated when we finally decided to make a planetary effort to explore and colonize space. It would be inevitably that during these missions we would encounter civilizations which were less developed both intellectually and technologically. As we also were exploring, we had to land on planets in inhabited systems. So as our nature always has been to help where we can  no matter the circumstances, we had to establish a ”helper-program” to be able to contact individuals to ”guide” the cultures in a clandestine way without the culture being closer to or at our technological  and especially intellectual level. This program is still being refined and is in use on many planets in our galaxy.” (p. 226)

Four months before departure Rene was contacted by one of the Visitors and asked whether he would accept a journey in space based on these preconditions:
1. Be able to travel five to six months.
2. No health issues of serious nature (scans will be perfomed in advance of journey).
3. No camera, telephone or recording device to be brought on board.

Rene accepted the conditions and close to midnight on September 12th the Visitor who had asked him about the journey arrived at Rene´s place. They went by car to a point just south of a large town in Denmark, where Rene was to embark on a small shuttle:
”There, after some walking, we came to an opening in the forest where a craft awaited. A scan was performed before I could enter… I was then told to quickly enter the craft and in entering, I turned to see my point-contact walking back on the path from where we had come. The door closed without any noise behind me and there was a slight vibration under my feet as I entered the craft. A man was just inside the opening motioning me to enter the central cabin. As I entered there was a woman waiting. The pilot was already at the control panel waiting for the clear sign. All three wore uniforms of dark blue color. The woman told me to take a seat as we were ready to depart”. (pp. 29-30)

On the shuttle Rene met two other Danish citizens who were also contactees: ”During the journey I had inquired who the two other Danish people were and their circumstances for taking the trip. They both had different stories to tell; so did all the people on board.” (p. 30) The first hour ten other persons from different countries in Europé was to be picked up. The group was then taken to a large cylindrical spaceship (cruiser) and there escorted to the reception area för registration. All in all there were 500 people from 100 different countries invited on this journey. Rene met people from Belgium, Thailand, Peru, China, India, Mexico etc. Every one is told to put a small spherical ball into one ear, a translator making it possible to hear and understand any language.

During a large reception for all travellers the reason for this journey is explained: ”The woman explained that all the approximaterly five hundred Earth people on board this cruiser would hopefully be inspired enough to incorporate the experience into their life when getting back to Earth. Perhaps we should not tell anybody of the experience – because no one would believe us anyway – but that we should try to incorporate the experience into our creative lives and in that way ”communicate” to the world about the possibilities for Earth, without each individual actually having to step forward and tell about their experiences. We had to choose our own way. (p. 34).

The journey to the Visitors home planet 400+ light years distant from Earth took only a few days because of their advanced use of gravity propulsion and electromagnetism. All travellers have their own ”Visitor companion” to guide and help them during the journey and stay on the planet. Because of the different interests and ages (35-70) of the travellers they can choose different study programs and places to see when on the Visitors planet. Rene is installed on the planet and informed about advanced robots and androids used by the Visitors. Every household had at least one robot.

His stay on the Visitors planet is not much different from an ordinary holiday in another country. The people look like normal Earth citizens, but are very friendly and proficient in the use of telepathy. Therir average lifespan is approximately two hundred and forty years. Architecture is somewhat futuritic and the technology used very advanced. Rene learns to use a sort of flying car, he visit shops, restaurants, archives etc. and socialize with the inhabitants.

”I was quite surprised to see something very much like a shopping center on Earth. There were a lot of specialized shops. There was not much difference except that some of the assistants in the shops were androids – looking very human-like… I went to the scanner area and scanned my goods. An android human was standing close by and asked if I needed any help. I said OK and thanks for asking. It took a bag and held it open for me. It understood my language as I spoke in Danish and it came out in Visitor language. It worked! That was a real test.” (pp. 162-163)

Rene´s home and fly-car on Visitor home planet

A large part of the diary is devoted to descriptions and discussions of various technical devices, as this is of special interest to Rene, who ask about propulsion methods, food machines and all other advanced gadgets used by the Visitors. In this respect I personally found the book somewhat disappointing, as my interest in and knowledge of technology is minimal. Other Civilizations now and then gives me the impression of reading a science fiction novel. I had hoped to find answers to the classic existential questions: the enigma of consciousnes, life and death, reincarnation, multiverse, good and evil. But these issues are only addressed very briefly and not very satisfying. An interesting psychological effect resulting from the long journey is described by Rene. About 250 travellers were forced to discontinue the trip and were transported back to Earth earlier because of claustrophobic attacks and other stress-related problems, among them the other two Danish citizens.

Visitor writing

Here a few quotes on existential issues:
”A certain consciousness pervades the Universe which will be clear to every civilization the more advanced it becomes.” (p. 80)

”That which holds the human form together is the soul or spirit – the same as with the universe itself.” (p. 112)

”From the Old Ones they even learned that such a thing as higher consciousness is possible.” (p. 223)

”… their culture is very much a spiritual one as well as a highly technological one as well. These two can easily be combined into a higher existence and there has been a planetary development in that all of the people have reached what could possibly be described as a somewhat ”ascended” nature or existence. It does not mean that these people are not physical; they are indeed physical, but they have acquired a physical glow which actual is a radiating electromagnetic field which surrounds every living thing.” (p. 263)

”There is a creative force which permeates the Universe. It is embedded within the creation of the Universe. It is an unseen consciousness which can be sensed in every process of creational force.” (p. 265)

The problem of evil on planet Earth is only given a brief comment: ”She had been told that Earth had chosen the hard path of destructive ways, but they still had hope for a change of path for the Earth”. (p. 66) This is very different from what was stated by George Adamski and other contactees (including the Esoteric Tradition) that Earth is a quarantined prison world used as a sort of cosmic Alcatraz by other highly developed civilizations in space. And that we also are visited by not very nice space people.

I had hoped to find some interesting information on abductions, evil space people and what or who is really behind incidents reported in the ufo community. According to Rene there are no evil Visitors coming to Earth. What is reported as negative experiences is the work of intelligence agents. But that is not the reality documented by ufo investigators, (including me) worldwide. I would like to know who was behind the rather brutal Swedish abductions of Gösta Häger 1974 and Ante Jonsson 1984. Or what group was behind the Swedish contactee Richard Höglund who was deeply afraid of his Visitors and told they were totally insensitive to humans and completely without morals, which they proved by shooting one of his friends. I would not trust a Visitor who told me there is only love and light from space.

So what is my final conclusion regarding Other Civilizations and the contact experiences of Rene Olsen? The truth is I have no final conclusion. I have found no evidence indicating fraud or deception. On the other hand there is no empirical evidence in support of Renes´claims. The photos from the Visitors home planet were given to Rene by one of his contacts. Interesting is that after the journey Rene have met two other European citizens from the trip and compared notes. What we can hope for is that some of the other travellers also decide to  publicly tell of their experiences. A somewhat frustrating statement by Rene is that, after about one hundred years work on our planet, the Visitors have now left Earth and will never return. Other groups continue similar clandestine activity and help.

If what Rene Olsen narrates is the truth, he is certainly a brave man and I must confess it is delightful to read a contact story with highly developed and benevolent Visitors here to help and inspire. This planet of pain and sorrow sure has a need for assistance - from wherever we can get it.

The Frank Howard Enigma

In my latest blog entry I briefly mentioned the Australian contactee Frank Howard. Very little is known or published about his life and contact experiences. None of my Australian research colleagues has been able to provide further data.  As usual I have to conclude that another fascinating contactee has been neglected and not investigated by the ufo research community.

There are four books by Frank Howard, published between 1976-1983: A Planetary Saga Almega (1976), Return of Alizantil (1976), Journey in Space with Alizantil (1978), An Extraterrestrial Message to the Nations (1983). Howard narrates his contacts and secret work with benevolent extraterrestrial visitors, who take him to their bases on the Moon and the Antarctic. He is also given a journey to an inner earth civilization.



Upon my first reading of the books I was inclined to regard them as fiction, inspired by the contactees of the 1950s era. But a lecture by Australian ufologist Martin Gottschall, at the 1996 Australian UFO conference, made me reconsider the case. Here a few quotes from the lecture:

”I got to know Frank Howard in the late 1970s through one of his books which the association had in its library. When I read it I was very impressed by the quality and content and discovered that he also lived in Brisbane and the address was in the book so I went to see him. And that is how I came to visit Howard on very regular intervals for a period of several years.

I wish to speak about a particular meeting he (Bob Luckoff) had with a certain individual in Frank´s home which in my mind suggests very strongly that Frank Howards´ home was a place where ETs visiting this planet found refuge when they needed it… or friendly conversation.

I don´t remember how Bob Luckoff came to know Frank Howard. He too started meeting Frank at regular intervals and sit down on Sunday afternoons and talk about the cosmos and other such things. It happened on one occasion that Bob was at Frank´s place and Frank was visited by a another man. This man was unusual in that his skin was covered with what looked like warts from a distance. Every visible millimeter of skin was… When he shook hands with this individual and felt the back of his hand there wasn´t … they were very smooth. Like very smooth silk.”

Very smooth hands, seemingly without underlying bone structure is a feature that comes up in several contactee cases, a. o. the Paul M. Vest experience in California 1953. Besides this statement in the Frank Howard story there is very little empirical evidence making it possible to determine the validity of his claims. We can then only try to evaluate the intellectual and philosophical quality of the messages given in the books. When rereading the books I was quite surprised to find the philosophy presented by the visitors basically in accordance with the core Esoteric Tradition (Helena P. Blavatsky, Alice Bailey, Henry T. Laurency a.o.). To me, as a longtime student of esotericism, this made the Frank Howard books deeply fascinating.

For the critical investigator to accept the esoteric worldview as a paradigm and working hypothesis most scholars would probably need some form of empirical data indicating a multiverse. For me the empirical evidence became obvious by investigating UFO and paranormal phenomena. But of course a bridge to esotericism could be found by researching a number of borderland phenomena: healing, out-of-body experiences, remote viewing, materializations etc. In my many blog entries I have tried to show that accepting esotericism as a working hypothesis does not imply irrationalism or a loss of intellectual integrity. UFO researchers such as Jacques Vallee and Allen Hynek have entertained similar ideas. The UFO community have much to learn by a study of the Esoteric Tradition. I predict many heureka moment for those who wish to follow this path in UFO research.

The Frank Howard books are a real challenge to read because of the poetic language and many repetitions. Interesting statements and messages becomes somewhat hidden among a mass of poetry. As a help for researchers I have extracted quotes on various themes and ideas and compiled them under different headings. Of special interest is a quote from the visitors that they use deception (misleading statements) to hide their real origin.

Alcatraz

”Know that this, your little Planet,
Moves into those cosmic regions of the
great Galactic-Vortex
Where those rays which beam upon her must
bring rapid change within her that she shall
mature more fully
To a Higher state of being
And no longer be a School-room for
the lower-grade of pupils. For the
kindergarten classes.”
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 50)

”On this work entrusted to us
Which, as you´re aware, my brother,
is connected with warfare
Of all souls upon the Planet
Of ´Uranta´, ´Shan´ or ´Terra´
Or ´the Earth´, as many know it.”
(Return of Alizantil, p. 178-179)

”As we have already mentioned
In our early conversations
Earth has been, for many Ages
As a ´kindergarten´ Class-room
To the young evolving Spirits
Clothed in flesh, each time they entered
Each successive incarnation
To consolidate in Spirit
Lessons learned upon the Earth-plane.”
(Return of Alizantil, p. 184)

”But we have regrets in saying
That there are but few, if any,
Upon which the Leading Species
Intellectually have been
Showing such a hard and ruthless
Disregard for Other species
As upon this little Planet.”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 238)

Ancient Wisdom
”That we may bring, one step nearer
Interplaneatary contact
On a close and friendly basis
That the Wisdom of the Ages
Long forgotten by the masses
May again be learned and practiced
By the ones who are receptive.”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 229)

 

Antarctic
”By the time he´d finished speaking
Alizantil had the Space-craft
Sweeping over the Antarctic

Oh what priceless treasure
Lies beneath that frozen wasteland
Soon to be revealed, Manelda,
With the changing of the Axis
When the tropic-Sun shall slowly
Melt those countless billion tons, of
Ice, into the raging torrents
That shall sweep into the Oceans,
To reveal the buried cities
Built in time now long forgotten
By the peoples of this Planet”
(Return of Alizantil, p. 172)

”May I say, our destination
Is a Base, beneath the ice-cap
Of the Great South land, Lenora
The ”Antarctic” as you´d call it.
And as this is but some minutes
From this Continent, Australia.”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 240-241)

”The remainder of our journey
To the secret point of entry

That there are within these regions
Areas of vegetation
Which could not survive in climates
Such as that which is existing
In this land of wind and blizzard.
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 250-251)

”For we´ve yet to pay a visit
To the Base in the Antarctic”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 255)

 

Ashtar
”So it is, we see the reasons
Why the Brotherhood of beings,
Great White Brotherhood of ”angels”,
(if we may use this expression)
Come to you from lands afar-off,
Come to you in ”Ships from Heaven”
In your days of grief and chaos;
For they bring to you the Wisdom
That is known in higher places,
Bring the Peace of Christ, their Master
Bring the great live of Sananda
In the fleeting ships of Ashtar.
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 86)

Atlantis
”Ships did lift them out of danger,
High above the surging waters,
High above the world of chaos,
Taking them to lands selected
Each prepared and well protected,
As the waters rushed and swirled.
Unto these selected places
Came the Wise-ones of Atlantis
With the records and the knowledge
Gained and used throughout the Ages
By a nation since forgotten
In a retrogressing world.”
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 16)

Bases
”Are there many contact-Bases
On this planet, for the peoples
Who would come from Worlds afar-off

And we´re ´on the Beam, in progress
T´wards the nearest of the Bases
Lying deep beneath the Waters

”Way beneath those pipes, Manelda,
There´s a dome, of great proportions
Built to stand tremendous pressures

And within this dome, or bubble
On the bed benetath the ocean
You will find the living quarters
Of the ´staff´ as you might call the”
(Return of Alizantil, p. 171)

”From our present Lunar-Bases
And from those that are established
In the Earth´s secluded places
And deep down within the Oceans”
(Return of Alizantil, p. 187)

Caves, tunnels
”Deep beneath these mountain ranges
Lie great man-made caves and tunnels
In which, priceless ancient relics
Still remain in all their splendour
Far from prying eyes of vandals;
This is still a well-kept secret
For no person is permitted
To gain entrance to these places
Then return and speak to others
Of what he had just discovered;
Yet the time will come, my brother,
When these doors again shall open
And mankind again shall see the wisdom
In their age-long preservation.”
(Return of Alizantil, p. 174)

”Many many million people
Dwell within these inner caverns
In their towns and inner cities,
In environment that has been
Artificially created
Which produces certain plant life
Relevant to their requirements
As to food and other uses.
Many thousand miles of tunnels-
Roadways one might rightly call them
Now connect these dwelling places
Through which rapid transportation
”Venicles” I think you´d call them,
Travel deep below the oceans
And your continents and mountains.”

There are three distinctive places
As to Earthly habitation -
”Outer”, ”Inner” and ”Caverns”
Deept beneath the Planet´s surface.
Many UFO´s are sighted
Running into many thousands,
Some of which are craft and ”solid”
As to three-dimension substance;
Others are as apparitions
Non-symmetrial and hazy.”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 278)

Coming catastrophes
”Know that many major changes
Shall take place upon your Planet
In the months and years to follow,
Continents shall rise triumphant
From beneath the cleansing waters;
Some, quite suddenly, shall rise;
This shall throw the raising waters
On to many Coastal low-lands
To submerge your towns and cities.
Other lands, shall, too, go under.”
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 26)

”And we come and stand beside you,
Till the ”Word” which shall be given
Starts the Rescue operations
On a scale as yet unheard of
On the Earth, this little Planet,
Since the last days of Atlantis.”
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 129)

”From our present Lunar-Bases
And from those that are established
In the Earth´s secluded places
And deep down within the Oceans”

Many millions shall be lifted
From a Planet in convulsions
And brought swiftly to the quarters
Situated in these buildings;
Others shall be quickly taken
From one place upon the Planet
To a place of lesser danger
While the waters toss and jostle
And the wild-winds shriek and whistle”.
(Return of Alizantil, p. 187)

”Man will never be permitted
To destroy this little Planet
As was done in recent Ages
To the Planet known as ”Maaldek”
(Or as ”Lucifer” to others).”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 221)

”And the reasons WHY we happen
To be here upon this Planet
During this phase of existence

With this project of ”upliftment”
(Which we´d hoped would halt the downward
Trend, in time to save mankind from
Cataclyms and disaster)
Come from Other Worlds afar-off.
For here are also many
Great Souls from the Higher Spirit-
Realms, encircling this Planet
Who have chosen to incarnate
Down again into the body
of the substance of the Earth plane
That more positive assistence
May be given, when most needed.”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 226)

”Very soon dramatic changes
Shall take place uipon this Planet
Which shall cleanse the House completely
For the tenants who shall follow.
In the Age that is now dawning,
Blood shall cease to flow, my Brother.
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, (p. 302)

”Direct action shall be taken
in the form of intervention
as a last resort, Manelda,
when all other pleas and warnings
have been heard and then rejected

the evacuation programme
of those who have ben selected
shall be carried out in detail
with no ouside interference
from the war machines in motion
or from any other quarter.”
(An Extraterrestrial Message to the Nations, (p. 336)

Cooperation space people – planetary guardians
”Know that in your skies this moment
Are the Ships from Lands afar-off,
With their mission understood.
From the Planets of this System,
Venus, Saturn, and from Mar-sa,
Come your sisters and your brothers
These your Guardians and your helpers.
Working with the Heavenly Legion
Of the Great White Brotherhood.”
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 27)

Cosmic laws
”We by Law, are not permitted
To enforce our wills upon you, Nor to
be, to you, as crutches
Lest your legs become yet weaker, Lest
you do become as puppets with each
thought and act dictated, With your self-
reliance dwindling.”
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 61)

Destruction of Earth
”Man will never be permitted
To destroy this little Planet
As was done in recent Ages
To the Planet known as ”Maaldek”
(Or as ”Lucifer” to others).”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 221)

”As you have been told beforehand,
The complete annihilation
Of all Life upon this Planet
Or complete disintegration,
Shall, nor will not, be permitted;
For which there are many reasons.
”Long ago, the Planet ”Maaldek”
(´Lucifer´, the name given
In some ancient books and records):
Orbited beyond the orbit
Of the Planet known as ”Marsa”;
Then, because of foolish action
By its scientists and leaders,
It exploded into fragments
Thus precipitating millions
Of its animals and peoples
To beseech accomodation
Elsewhere in the local System
Many came into the Spirit-
Realms, which do surround this Planet
From which they have incarnated
To the physical or Earth plane.
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 273)

”We have warned, and we have pleaded;
we have spoken to the leaders
of these large and warring nations

So our plans include such action
if, or when, the need arises
for Man shall NOT be permitted
to destroy his habitation
as a tenant of this Planet.

All precautions will be taken
to prevent release of forces
that could cause disintegration
of the Planet and her children.”
(An Extraterrestrial Message to the Nations, (p. 366-367)

Evil forces
”Certainly, there are those Peoples
Of the Inner and the Outer
Realms, who choose the path of Darkness”.
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 273)

”Some there are, within this Planet
Who´ve descended from the ancients
Who survived the cataclysmic-
Changes through the distant Ages
And retain some of the knowledge
And the ”magic” of these Races
Yet, regreettably, in cases of
Moral standards and the  wisdom
To use this with great discretion
Has been lost, along the pathway
Of millenniums that followed.
”Good” and ”evil” as we´ve mentioned
Come in relative proportions.”

Yes, there are surely, Manelda,
Certain places on this Planet
From which emanate these forces,
Which perhaps one might refer to
As ”projection points of Darknes.”

From our Bases and equipment
We collect all information
Appertaining to the labours
Of the Dark or ”Evil” forces,
Operating under-cover
In the guise of benefactors
To the ones who follow blindly
Trails,  with signposts indicating
Wealth and power to all who venture
From the road of Love and Virtue.”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 289-290)

”But again, we must give credence
To the concept, that existing
There are two opposing forces-
That of Light, and that of Darkness
And with much regret and sadness
We mut say that infiltration
By the dark, or ”evil” forces
Into govermental places
Into Army, Air and Navy
Of most of the worldly nations
Is a fact, and has continued
On and on, throughout the ages
Causing dreadful pain and chaos,
And it makes us sad to mention
That these dark and evil forces
have become so well established
In some churches and religions
That some of the worst crimes ever
Have in truth been perpetrated
Under banners falsely stating
That they had the ”holy” sanction
Of the Universal Father.”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 295)

”But the tragic truth, Manelda,
is that much that should be given
to the People, whose subscriptions
finance the investigations,
has been kept in closely-guarded
vaults, aand other secret places,
for no other valid reason
than the fact that those in power
can control their ´puppets´only
by preventing truth and knowledge
from obtaining mass acceptance.”
(An Extraterrestrial Message to the Nations, (p. 310)

Flying Saucers, Vimanas
”Know that in your skies this moment
Are the Ships from Lands afar-off,
With their mission understood.
From the Planets of this System,
Venus, Saturn, and from Mar-sa,
Come your sisters and your brothers
These your Guardians and your helpers.
Working with the Heavenly Legion
Of the Great White Brotherhood.”
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 27)

Ancient flying ships – ”Vimanas” -
Used before the cataclysms
Are maintained and operating
Side by side with craft ”up-dated”.
By the use of modern methods
Of propulsion and ascension
So that they may travel freely
From the Inner to the Outerside,
From the Lands of ”myth” and ”legend”
Through the mysic Gates of ”Chin-vaat”,
Hidden right through the Ages
By perpetual cloud cover,
And protected from invasion.
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 275-276)

There are three distinctive places
As to Earthly habitation -
”Outer”, ”Inner” and ”Caverns”
Deep beneath the Planet´s surface.
Many UFO´s are sighted
Running into many thousands,
Some of which are craft and ”solid”
As to three-dimension substance;
Others are as apparitions
Non-symmetrial and hazy.”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 278)

”There are, as we´ve said beforehand
The ”descendants of the ancients”
Living now beneath the surface
In the great labyrinth of caverns,
Then again, we have those Peoples
Of the hollow core or Centre.
Craft are used by certain Races
Of the caverns and the Centre,
Which one might indeed refer too
As ”outdated” in construction
And their methods of propulsion
Which includes the”jets” and rockets
And indeed, air-screw propellers,
None of which would take a space craft
On an interStellar journey.
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 275-277)

”Governments have been concealing
information on these matters
from their people (their employers),
for a long, long time, Manelda

We have knows since their inception
of their ”secret” plans and projects,
so can say authoritatively
certain of the major countries
have for many years been working
on ´control of gravitation´
and construction of an ´aircraft´
or, to be precise, a Discoid-
type of craft that´s flown and guided
with no aerofoil-appendage
with which to control direction
and maintain its elevation

there are many types of ´objects´
seen around the local heavens -
and, of course, within the waters
of the Earth, by many people;
and of these, a minor portion
are experimental ´space-craft´,
the results of secret projects
funded by the mass of people
from whom the truth has been excluded.”
(An Extraterrestrial Message to the Nations, (p. 332)

”Then there are those many ´airships´
seen to fly in any weather
in the latter eighteen hundreds,
prior to experimental
flights by man´s own clumsy airships.
Crews who landed, spoke of ´testing´
their new airships, manufactured
in another town or country
which were, when investigated
found to be misleading statements.
Aktorelda, smiling, answered:
´this, of course is true, Manelda
and we must accept a portion
of the guilt for these excursions
to the outer world, as mentioned.

But perhaps of all these peoples,
those who would have greater reasons
for misleading surface humans
as to their identity and
place of domicile, we´ll call it
would be those whose homes and people
could feel threatened if invaded
by some warlike race or nation.
These, of course, include those people
who are now our hosts, Manelda,
plus the ones that live in caverns
deep beath the outer surface.”
(An Extraterrestrial Message to the Nations, (p. 358-360)

Frank Howard (Manelda)
”Inspirationally received, and perhaps unusual in its poetic presentation, this book seeks only to place before every sincere seeker the reason for Earth´s Creation, her past, present and future in relation to the wider Universe.”
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 1)

By the child, who laughed and frolicked
With invisible companions
So, as time rolled on, Manelda
Came to realize, that others
Did not all possess the hearing
Or the sight, he took for granted
And that he must use discretion
If he was to be considered
”Normal” and thus be accepted”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 206)

General
”… even the Universe itself is experimental: Spirit clothed in varying degrees of Matter, taking Form and learning by trial and error consciously to love all Life”
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 1.)

”Man succumbed to earth´s temptations.
On this planet, known as Shan”
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 6 )

”Certain vital information
must be given now, my Brother
to all people on this Planet
in the hope that those who hear it
will believe and act upon it,
to bring sanity and reason
in the place of fear and conflict.”
(An Extraterrestrial Message to the Nations, (p. 310)

”Now the ”Red-Alert” has sounded
right throughout the Solar System
and beyond, where now are gathered
Those Who Sit In Higher council
contemplating on the action
to be taken now, and later
to bring order out of chaos
and bring sanity and reason
in the place of degradation.”
(An Extraterrestrial Message to the Nations, (p. 311-312)

”People on the Earth at present
are, of course, a combination
of ´original´ Earth Peoples
plus those many tribes and races
carried here from other planets
many thousands, yes and millions
of Earth years ago, Manelda,
to fulfill a certain portion
of their Cosmic education.”

Some have gone through many hundred
incarnations on the Earthplane,
yet are still repeting errors
made in early incarnations.”
(An Extraterrestrial Message to the Nations, (p. 330-331)

Incarnated space people
”Grettings, one again, ´Manelda`,
For it is that we are Brothers
And have been, throughout the Ages
Meeting, parting and rejoicing
Coming, going, on our missions;
Take the hand of ´Alizantil`

And he saw the one before him
As a loved an trusted brother
With whom he had laughed and laboured
Long ago, before the present
Incarnation on the Planet.”
(Return of Alizantil, p. 140)

”Many of the Brothehood, are
Working incognito daily
In positions allocated
prior to this incarnation
In their present Earthly bodies
Even though a full awareness
Of their mission, and its purpose
May not, yet have reached the surface
Of the consciousness, restricted
By the senses of the body

Many of these mission-workers
have come here from other Planets
At this time, for special reasons
Some to incarnate as children

Others have been brought ´in body´
From those Planets, where conditions
Do resemble rather closely
Those encountered on the Earth-plane

They are brought in Craft, and taken
To some place, remote from cities
In the early-morn, if need be
At a time when most are sleeping
To be met by fellow-Workers
Who are already established
In the land of their adoption.”
(Return of Alizantil, p. 170-171)

”When you shall again rejoin us,
Join your sisters, and your brothers
Whom you chose to leave, Manelda
For a Season on the Earth-plane,
There to carry out your portion
Of the Plan, allotted to you”.
(Return of Alizantil, p. 189)

Inner Earth, Agharta
”Could you tell, Alizantil
Whether stories we´ve been hearing
Of an ”Inner Earth” are falsehoods,
Or are scientifically
Sound, and may be backed or founded
On realities existing?
”There is certain information
We may pass on at this moment”,
Alizantil said, replying
To the question of Manelda
”For the time is drawing closer
When mankind must know the answers
To these all.important questions;
Yes, there surely is an Inner-
World, within this little Planet
And although this fact is knowledge
To selected groups and leaders
Of the outer surface dwellers,
It has been a closely guarded
Secret, right down through the Ages
For some reasons quite apparent,
And for certain other reasons
Which would give to some, advantage
over those who had no knowledge
On this all-important subject
Great activity is centered
Round this Planet´s polar regions
By most of the major nations;
Who have well established Bases
Fitted with the best equipment
To be made by modern methods:
And we know this concentration
Of activity we speak of,
Is not for the special purpose
Of the study of the penguin
And its breeding grounds and habits.”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 257)

”Though it is for Alizantil
To reveal to you ”important”
Information, which when given
May astound so many people
On the ”Surface” of this planet
For these have been closely guarded
Secrets (should we say ”Arcana”)
Of established Arcane Orders
For a long, long time, Manelda.”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 271)

”This, the Inner Earth – the Garden
Is the home of many peoples
Who have lived in harmony and
Peace with others and with Nature,
And are more advanced in science,
Sociology and morals
Than the dwellers on the surface

How has this been kept the Secret
Of the ages, from the Peoples
Who have lived upon the surface?

”We shall take you and Lenora
On a short tour of inspection
Of the inner Earth tomorrow
Prior to again returning
To your home and to your people

Those who know of the existence
Of the Inner World, Manelda,
May have contemplated visits
But, except on rare occasions
The conditions they encountered
Force ”explorers” to abandon
All attempts at further progress
Whereas those the Inner dwellers
Who had lived for many ages
In the Lands of peace and Plenty,
Had retained the Ancient Wisdom,
For external cataclysms
Had not adverserly affected
Their environmental structure
In the way it had the Surface,
So their scientific knowledge
And their methods and procedures
Have continued making progress
Parallel to that of Spirit.
Ancient flying ships – ”Vimanas” -
Used before the cataclysms
Are maintained and operating
Side by side with craft ”up-dated”.
By the use of modern methods
Of propulsion and ascension
So that they may travel freely
From the Inner to the Outerside,
From the Lands of ”myth” and ”legend”
Through the mysic Gates of ”Chin-vaat”,
Hidden right through the Ages
By perpetual cloud cover,
And protected from invasion.

As millenniums rolled onwards,
Those who lived within this Planet
Held no fears of an invasion
By vice and profane corruption,
Of their Lands, and of their peoples,
But of recent years, their Leaders
Have viewed with much consternation
Rapid scientific progress
Being made in certain countries
Of the”short-lived” Surface dwellers.”
”Those who live inside the Planet
Have ten times the normal life span
Of those living on the surface.”
”As you have been told beforehand,
The complete annihilation
Of all Life upon this Planet
Or complete disintegration,
Shall, nor will not, be permitted;
For which there are many reasons.
”Long ago, the Planet ”Maaldek”
(´Lucifer´, the name given
In some ancient books and records):
Orbited beyond the orbit
Of the Planet known as ”Marsa”;
Then, because of foolish action
By its scientists and leaders,
It exploded into fragments
Thus precipitating millions
Of its animals and peoples
To beseech accomodation
Elsewhere in the local System
Many came into the Spirit-
Realms, which do surround this Planet
From which they have incarnated
To to the physical or Earth plane.
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 275-276)

”On that which is emanating
From a tiny sun suspended
In the centre of this Planet.
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 275-277)

”There are, as we´ve said beforehand
The ”descendants of the ancients”
Living now beneath the surface
In the great labyrinth of caverns,
Then again, we have those Peoples
Of the hollow core or Centre.
Craft are used by certain Races
Of the caverns and the Centre,
Which one might indeed refer too
As ”outdated” in construction
And their methods of propulsion
Which includes the”jets” and rockets
And indeed, air-screw propellers,
None of which would take a space craft
On an interStellar journey.
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 275-277)

”Some, who live below the surface
Are what we might say are ”Mutants”,
Force to wear the ”cloak” or body
Brought about by certain causes
And effects, of wrongful usage
Of that which our God provided.”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 281)

”Lush with tree and vegetation
Unspoilt by the hand of vandals
As upon the Outer surface
See the villages and townships
Of some of the inner people

This most surely is that ”phantom”-
Land, beyond the Polar regions
Of which there are myths and legends
In most countries near the arctic

This most surely is the hidden
Land of never-ending twilight
For the central ”sun” your´re viewing
Does not radiate the brilliance
Of the Sun, seen on the Surface
But it never ”sets”, nor ”rises”.
”thus its constant radiation
Gives stability and constant
Moderation to the climate
Which is always mild and pleasant.”

And it is with apprehension
That they feel the earth´s convulsions
Knowing well the cause and causes.
So they cruise the Outer regions
Gathering all types of data
That might be of use in building
What you´d call, defensive measures
For emergency survival.”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 294-295)

”Aktorelda and his people
have good reasons for their feelings
of what must be apprehension,
for they know that certain nations
now have knowledge of these regions.”
(An Extraterrestrial Message to the Nations, (p. 360)

Maldek
”So it was in distant ages
That another World did orbit
Round the Sun, which doth sustain you
”Lucifer” as some did call it.
And great troubles did befall it
On Fate´s ocean was it tossed

Man destroyed this lovely planet
In the moment of his folly -
The effects of war and hate

To be known as ”Asteroids”.
These now orbit in your System
Just beyond the path of ”Mar-sa”.
Remnants of a past Creation.”
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 9)

”Man will never be permitted
To destroy this little Planet
As was done in recent Ages
To the Planet known as ”Maaldek”
(Or as ”Lucifer” to others).”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 221)

”As you have been told beforehand,
The complete annihilation
Of all Life upon this Planet
Or complete disintegration,
Shall, nor will not, be permitted;
For which there are many reasons.
”Long ago, the Planet ”Maaldek”
(´Lucifer´, the name given
In some ancient books and records):

Realms, which do surround this Planet
From which they have incarnated
To to the physical or Earth plane.
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 273)

Moon
”Look below within these ´craters´,
Do you see those domes in many?
These of course, have been constructed
For the use of those who travel
To these parts, from other Planets;
Some are used to ´house´ the Space-craft
Whilst the cargo is unloaded

Many of these dome-shaped structures
You will see are joined together
By a ´tube´, upon the surface.”
(Return of Alizantil, p. 176)

”Great communities are living
deep within the hollowed structure
of this seemingly deserted
moon, as you well know, Manelda,
as they do on other planets
of this local solar system;
which, of course, includes the planet
on which you have been residing
during this brief incarnation.”
(An Extraterrestrial Message to the Nations, (p. 341)

Multiverse
”You, yourself, must know, Manelda,
That the Soul of Man does function,
Consciously, on other levels
Than the Earth-plane of this Planet
And on each successive level
Going higher up the ladder,
It expresses through the body
Moulded, as it were, from substance
Of the atoms of that level
And appears as firm, and solid,
Relative to all around it.”
(Return of Alizantil, p. 141)

”You will know, that this dimension
On which we are manifesting
In this body, at this moment,
Is but one, a portion only
Of the great ´ascending-ladder`
Mentioned by the seers and the prophets.”
(Return of Alizantil, p. 157)

”That there is, throughout the Cosmos
An ´ascending-scale´ of progess,
Numerous vibation-levels
Merging interpenetrating
With each one within its limits
Of cohesion, as to ´matter ´.
On each ´vibratory-level´
Many worlds and many peoples
Are as ´solid´ to each other,
As from Earth, the Moon and Planets
Are as solids, to each other.”
(Return of Alizantil, p. 1158-159)

”There are Worlds beyond description;
On those levels of Dimension
Quite outside vibration limits
Of the Earth plane of this Planaet
(Not responsive to the senses
Of the ”physical” in body);
Though those who live upon them
Everything is real and solid
In relation to each other.
This is something that the Peoples
Of the Earth must now consider
Not as a ”possibility”, but
As Reality existing.”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 239)

Planetary Guardians, Planetary Hierarchy
”In the High Celestial Heavens
Guardians of the Earth held Council
In the days when help was needed.”
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 6)

”Looking on the World around them
These the Elders of Atlantis
Earthly guardians of the Secrets,
Saw the folly of revealing
To a world as yet in darkness
What could not be understood
So they Build in quiet places
Far removed from those around them,
Buildings in the mountain ranges
Where no man by force could enter
Chambers of the earthly members
Of the Great White Brotherhood.

In the Asian Himalayas,
In the Andes of the Westland,
On the Islands of the South Seas,
On the little known Mount Shasta,
And in other chosen places
Where no prying eye could see,
Here the guardians kept the Secrets
Of the higher Laws and Forces
Of the Universe eternal
Held by mental-power securely
Lest they be used prematurely,
To result in tragedy.”
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 16-17)

”There are certain Souls, my brother,
Some you´d call Adepts, or Masters
Who may by the use of higher
Cosmic-laws, they´ve learned to live by,
Consciously project, in Spirit
To another land, or person,
And by drawing on the atoms
of that place upon the Earth-plane
And to which they have projected,
Re-assemble, in the body
As it were in three dimensions
To become as real and solid
As thery were before projection
In the body that is resting
In another land, or region”
(Return of Alizantil, p. 142)

”For the Brotherhood is anxious
To establish closer contact
With selected ”groups” or ”bodies”.
”Focal points” perhaps, you´d call them
In the lands of every Nation.”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 231)

”But the Brotherhood we´ve mentioned
Of which we are humble members,
Are concerned as to the welfare
Of this planet and her peoples
And of every type and species
With the spark of Life within them.”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 296)

”Man has always proved reluctant
to accept that which is given
by the Brotherhood and Others,
for his spiritual guidance,
and prefers to follow signposts
promising remuneration
and a life of ease and comfort.”
(An Extraterrestrial Message to the Nations, (p. 310-311)

”You´ve already seen, Manelda
(as have we who guard the secrets
of the very ancient wisdom

We have records in our archives
dealing with the primal phases
of this Planet and all species
of the animal and plant life

Contary to common knowledge
and acceptance on the Earthplane,
Man has lived upon this planet
for some million years and more.”
(An Extraterrestrial Message to the Nations, (p. 356-357)

Space people
”In the Universe are Others
You could call them your Space-brothers
Who do know your present plight
In machines they come to see you,
Come as guardians and advisers
Which the´ve been throughout the Ages.

Contact points they have where needed
On the plains or in the valleys
Sometimes high up on the mountains
Far from prying eyes and scoffers,
From those who would fill their coffers
At another Soul´s expence.”
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 12)

”Know that in your skies this moment
Are the Ships from Lands afar-off,
With their mission understood.
From the Planets of this System,
Venus, Saturn, and from Mar-sa,
Come your sisters and your brothers
These your Guardians and your helpers.
Working with the Heavenly Legion
Of the Great White Brotherhood.”
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 27)

”From those planets which are older
Come the sisters and the brothers,
In the ships which were constructed
For their journeys in the system

And, to those who seek to guide you
Through the days which lie before you
Through the cataclysmic chaos brought
about by men of darkness. Access to the
detailed records
Has been given for the purpose
Many, many tens och thousands
Of your Guardians and Helpers who
have volunteered for service from the
lovely planet Venus, she who shines in
light of spirit,
And from Saturn, where the wise ones
Teach the wisdom of the Father, and
from Marsa-World of science,
Where great ships are manufactured; these
who would give help and guidance have been
issued with instructions,
Have been trained, equipped and readied
For that which they know is coming, for
the cleansing of your Planet.
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 53)

”Do not be alarmed nor fearful
When you see, within your heavens,
In the skies which are around you,
Gleaming ships from Lands afar-off,
From the Lands of other Planets;
For you shall not be deserted
By the Brotherhood of peoples
Of this local Solar-System.”
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 74)

”Know that those who use these space-craft
As a means of transportation,
From the distant Lands and Planets
To your World, or to another,
Have progressed a little farther
In their search for truth and knowledge
Than your scientists and teachers.”
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 80)

”For, although the ”plan” at present
Does include sufficient ”sightings”
Of these Craft within the heavens,
To maintain thought stimulation.”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 241)

Stones lifting
”Centuries have passed, Manelda,
Since the Ones from other Planets
Lived, and walked in greater numbers
With the early native Peoples
Of this adolescent planet,
Teaching them the arts and science
Of the Distant Worlds and Systems
Teaching peace, and love of others
In the place of greed and war-fare.
Buildings of great strength and beauty
Were designed by Master.planners
To be built in stone or timber

Stone was cut, and shaped from quarries
By the use of Ultra-Light beams
Thus allowing great precision
Of the joints and polished surface;
These colossal stones, when finished
Were each lifted, as a feather
By the power of the Vortex
By the atteunement of the Force-field”:
(A Planetary Saga Almega, p. 154)

Teleportation
”Let us take you now, my brother
In this state of relaxation
To a point within the heavens,
To the Craft, from whence transmission
Of this telepathic contact,
Has been made, this very moment

In your mind I read the question,
”How did I arrive so quickly
At this point, within this Space-craft,
And, how was this feat accomplished?”
”Well Manelda, there are many
Means by which a conscious being
May be moved from one position
To another point, some distance
From the place from whcnce he started.”
(Return of Alizantil, p. 139-140)

”Now we come to yet another
Method, by which we, and others
May ´project` a certain person
Or some object we have chosen,
From a point upon this Planet
To a point within our Space-Craft

To accomplish this Manelda,
We create, with appartus
What you´d call, an artificial
Elongated, spiral force-field
Similar in certain aspects
To a whirlwind, or tornado”
(Return of Alizantil, p. 142)

Ancient Breakaway Civilization - A Source Study

Some months ago I reread The Descendants, a fascinating novel by my good friend and research colleague Tony Brunt. The story revolves around a young boy, Tim Baker, who while hiking in the New Zealand mountains saves a woman stuck in a crevass. He gets a real surprice when she lead him to a hidden saucer-shaped craft, in which she leave. The woman belongs to an ancient, highly advanced civilization, called the Descendants. Numbering tens of thousands they live, unknown to mankind, in large subterranean bases. Because Tim Baker has saved the life of a Descendant his family becomes involved in the secret work this group is undertaking above ground. A work involving undercover observers  keeping a watchful eye detecting threats to the planet and to the hidden community.


In a mail conversation about
The Descendants May 16, 2021 Tony remarked that although it is a fictional story based on various contactee books: ” I have no doubt that there are others living in a more advanced state in hidden places on the planet.” This theory has been advanced in different ways by researchers for many years. In their discussion of theories in The Edge of Reality, Allen Hynek and Jacques Vallee used the term earth-bound aliens for this group of visitors. Mac Tonnies called them Cryptoterrestrials in his book, published in 2010.

”They have hidden behind the extraterrestrial myth” writes John Keel in a letter to my AFU colleague Anders Liljegren, August 10, 1982. And Keel continues: ”Forget the flying saucer propaganda. We are dealing with something very close to home.”. During my many years of investigation of contactee cases I have now and then pondered whether this could actually be the answer to some of the very physical contact experiences reported worldwide. If we are partly dealing with one or more groups of earth-based and undiscovered aliens we are faced with an even greater enigma than extraterrestrial visitors.

In several books and blog articles I have, from different perspectives, tried to answer the question – who are these people? Human-looking visitors who obviously mingle in our society and possess an advanced technology. They are physical like us and seem to be earth-based in their activities.. If this is the case, where is their hiding place on this planet? Could some specialized and covert intelligence groups have discovered who these people are, trying to deal with this delicate issue in their own way? Disclosure of such a fantastic scenario would probably not be regarded as an option by the people who have a need to know.

Having for some time gathered data from various sources on the ancient breakaway civilization theory (ABC theory) I wish to share a compilation that may be of interest to research colleagues. I have divided the sources in three sections: Case investigations, contactee statements and esoteric sources.

Case investigations

Anna
There are of course many documented encounters where earth-bound visitors appears to be a reasonable explanation. First of all I would like to mention my own investigations of the Anna case. She and her husband were invited to dinner i Guatemala 1959 by a visitor that bears all the hallmarks, in appearance and behavior, of belonging to this planet. His rather flippant way of asking Anna´s husband if he wanted a trip to Venus indicates a cover story. My two-part article can be found here and here.

Joelle Marchemont (The Blue John Case)
There have been several cases of ”exchange of personnel” with UFOs and cars involved. John Keel, R. Perry Collins, Ardy Sixkiller Clarke a.o. have documented such stories. The Blue John case was investigated by Timothy Good and published in his book Alien Base. After observing a landed craft with two visitors entering a car Mrs Marchmont became closely involved with the visitors. On several occasions she cooked meals for them at her London flat. She was told that their group would intervene in the event of a nuclear catastrophe, if it threatened to destroy our planet. If the visitors were actually earth-based such a plan would be a first priority.

Leland
A case of very physical and partly normal contact with aliens is reported by a man named Leland and documented by Dr. Ardy Sixkiller Clarke (Encounters With Star People, Chapter 6, They Are Among Us). Leland describes what has happened during several nights at his ranch near the Nebraska border: ”They come at night. They hover over the field. They lower automobiles to the ground. They´re filled with people. The craft goes away and when the car returns the next night, only the driver returns. They take the car and the driver on board their spacecraft and then they´re gone again.”



Richard Höglund
One of the most intriguing and complicated UFO contacts I have ever investigated is the Richard Höglund case, summarized by Timothy Good in Earth – An Alien Enterprise. Richard interacted and worked for several years with a group of visitors with doubtful motives and morals. Of special interest is his visit to their underground base in Mexico, a place that figures in several other cases.

Walter Bosley
Although not an ordinary case investigation I would like to mention the claims of Walter Bosley, using the pen name E.A.Guest in his article The Other Paradigm (Fate, April 2005). According to Bosley his father had worked for a special assignement team in the U.S. Air Force to find and retrieve crashed craft. He had inspected remains from several crashes, including human-looking aliens and was briefed at Wright-Patterson about the real nature of the craft and aliens: ”A civilization thrives underground, hidden from the surface world… These peope are not extraterrestrials. Quite the contrary, they are among the oldest people on this planet… Occasionally, they come and go, emerging in their vehicles, and occasionally they crash. They are human in appearance, so much so that they can move among us with ease with just a little effort.”

Contactee statements

Eugene Drake
”There is an ancient civilization living underground with entrances in Mexico, and not such a great distance from Mexico City. They often come to the surface and mingle with the people, but aside from a few mystics, the people of Mexico do not know this, and they would have a difficult time, if they did,  to locate the entrances to their underground cities.”
(Eugene Drake, Visitors From Space (1950) p. 26).

Frank Howard
When I first read the four books by Australian contactee Frank Howard I regarded them as works of fiction. But then I found a YouTube lecture by Australian ufologist Martin Gottschall at the 1996 Australian UFO conference. Gottschall, who knew Frank Howard, found evidence that ”his home was a safe house for visiting ETs, and that he would not have wanted to attract undue interest.) The titles of his works are: A Planetary Saga Almega; Return of Alizantil; Journey in Space With Alizantil; An Extraterrestrial Message to the Nations. The books are written in a very special poetical style that can be quite exhausting to read because of the many repetitions. But buried in all this prose are some rather startling and fascinating statements. Frank Howard narrates his contacts with benevolent extraterrestrial visitors who also take him to their bases on the Moon and the Antarctic. He is also given a journey to an inner earth civilization. This is the first time I have read of visitors claiming they use deception to hide their true inner earth origin.





”Deep beneath these mountain ranges
Lie great man-made caves and tunnels

In which, priceless ancient relics
Still remain in all their splendour
Far from prying eyes of vandals;
This is still a well-kept secret
For no person is permitted
To gain entrance to these places
Then return and speak to others
Of what he had just discovered;
Yet the time will come, my brother,
When these doors again shall open
And mankind again shall see the wisdom
In their age-long preservation.”
(Return of Alizantil, p. 174)


”There are three distinctive places

As to Earthly habitation -
”Outer”, ”Inner” and ”Caverns”
Deep beneath the Planet´s surface.
Many UFO´s are sighted
Running into many thousands,
Some of which are craft and ”solid”
As to three-dimension substance;
Others are as apparitions
Non-symmetrial and hazy.”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 278)

 

”Many many million people
Dwell within these inner caverns
In their towns and inner cities,
In environment that has been
Artificially created
Which produces certain plant life
Relevant to their requirements
As to food and other uses.
Many thousand miles of tunnels-
Roadways one might rightly call them
Now connect these dwelling places
Through which rapid transportation
”Vehicles” I think you´d call them,
Travel deep below the oceans
And your continents and mountains.”

 

”There are, as we´ve said beforehand
The ”descendants of the ancients”
Living now beneath the surface
In the great labyrinth of caverns,
Then again, we have those Peoples
Of the hollow core or Centre.
Craft are used by certain Races
Of the caverns and the Centre,
Which one might indeed refer too
As ”outdated” in construction
And their methods of propulsion
Which includes the”jets” and rockets
And indeed, air-screw propellers,
None of which would take a space craft
On an interStellar journey.
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 275-277)

”Could you tell, Alizantil
Whether stories we´ve been hearing
Of an ”Inner Earth” are falsehoods,
Or are scientifically
Sound, and may be backed or founded
On realities existing?
”There is certain information
We may pass on at this moment”,
Alizantil said, replying
To the question of Manelda
”For the time is drawing closer
When mankind must know the answers
To these all.important questions;
Yes, there surely is an Inner-
World, within this little Planet
And although this fact is knowledge
To selected groups and leaders
Of the outer surface dwellers,
It has been a closely guarded
Secret, right down through the Ages
For some reasons quite apparent,
And for certain other reasons
Which would give to some, advantage
over those who had no knowledge
On this all-important subject
Great activity is centered
Round this Planet´s polar regions
By most of the major nations;
Who have well established Bases
Fitted with the best equipment
To be made by modern methods:
And we know this concentration
Of activity we speak of,
Is not for the special purpose
Of the study of the penguin
And its breeding grounds and habits.”
(Journey in Space With Alizantil, p. 257)

”Then there are those many ´airships´
seen to fly in any weather
in the latter eighteen hundreds,
prior to experimental
flights by man´s own clumsy airships.
Crews who landed, spoke of ´testing´
their new airships, manufactured
in another town or country
which were, when investigated
found to be misleading statements.
Aktorelda, smiling, answered:
´this, of course is true, Manelda
and we must accept a portion
of the guilt for these excursions
to the outer world, as mentioned.

But perhaps of all these peoples,
those who would have greater reasons
for misleading surface humans
as to their identity and
place of domicile, we´ll call it
would be those whose homes and people
could feel threatened if invaded
by some warlike race or nation.
These, of course, include those people
who are now our hosts, Manelda,
plus the ones that live in caverns
deep beath the outer surface.”
(An Extraterrestrial Message to the Nations, (p. 358-360)

George Adamski
Including George Adamski in this list is of course controversial. During all his years as a contactee he always maintained that the visitors were from Venus and Mars etc. and  had organic physical bodies like us. When ”Orthon” tried to help Adamski from getting to close to the craft during the November 20th 1952 meeting he hurt himself and his blood was as red as ours. There is also the connection between Mexico and the visitors, a country often mentioned in inner earth lore and underground bases. If Adamski´s visitors were actually from our own planet the Venus claim would be the perfect cover story.

Howard Menger
Of even greater interest when looking at the ABC theory is Timothy Good´s interview with Menger in 1978.  

Howard Menger: Well, I asked them where they came from, and they told the truth, but I believe it´s a possibility that I might have distorted that answer. You see, when they say they have just come from a planet we call Venus, that doesn´t mean they are Venusians, but I interpreted it as that…. But I think that I might have been wrong. According to what they told me, they led me to believe that there´s no life on any of the planets in this solar system – I mean such as we people.”

HM: ”I would say that it is very possible that there are civilizations that are right on this planet… that are living right here on this planet – underground. They don´t want anything to do with us, because of the radiation.

Timothy Good: So, you think that the people you met were from this planet? I´ll re-phrase that, were from a superior technology, a superior civilization on this planet?

HM: They are definitely superior spiritually, and their technology was superior, and their bodies were superior.

TG: And they had what could be construed as space vehicles?

HM: They are extra-terrestrial vehicles: they could go into outer space, yes.

TG: Yeah, but you still don´t think that that necessarily means that they came from space… Do you think they were borrowing them, or do you think they have space travel capability?

HM: There are so many theories. You see, I wish I knew one answer and one only. Wouldn´t that solve a lot of problems. But you see… this whole thing is so complex”

There is also a very cryptic statement in Howard Menger´s book From Outer Space to You. When discussing a conspiracy of ”others” operating on our planet a space woman relates to Menger: ”They use people not only from this planet… but ”Also other people of your own planet – people you don´t know about. People who live unobserved and undiscovered as yet. It is a kind of ”underground” in your popular terminology.” (p. 144)

Millen Cooke
One of the most interesting and enigmatic silent contactees is Millen Cooke. According to Australian ufologist Moira McGhee, Millen was at Palomar Gardens during George Adamski´s first contact in 1952 and knew what was to happen beforehand. In the November, 1947 issue of Ray Palmer´s magazine Fantastic Adventures she wrote an article, Son of the Sun, using the pen name Alexander Blade.  It is a remarkably prophetic article written as a message from a "visitor" belonging to a secret group in possession of flying discs that sounds much more like an earth-based group that extraterrestrials:

"We are alrady here, among you. Some of us have always been here, with you, yet apart from, watching and occasionally guiding you whenever the opportunity arose... We have been confused with the gods of many world-religions, although we are not gods, but your own fellow creatures, as you will learn directly before many more years have passed... Some of you have seen our "advance guard" already. You have met us often in the streets of your cities and you have not noticed us. But when we flash through your skies in the ancient traditional vehicles you are amazed... These are our mechanical means of transport. Now that the art of manufacturing plastic materials has reached a certain prefection among you, perhaps you can imagine a material, almost transparent to the rays of ordinary visible light, yet strong enough to endure the stresses of extreme rapid flight."

Silent Contactee
For many years I have corresponded with an American contactee who wish to remain anonymous. In 2015 I asked about the inner earth theory and received this answer:

X: ”At first, there were the people, who since ancient times, have lived inside our planet… I have met some of them, fine people.

Håkan: Do the people living inside our planet have saucers? Do they look like us?

: Yes, they have craft. Yes, they look like you and me, although they have other sizes among them because of the gravity variations over the centuries I would assume.

Håkan: How do you know which people are from inside the earth and which are the friends upstairs?

X: Friends upstairs are light beings, they have one hundred percent control over light, people inside our earth, just Human. The types of craft, the methods of travel and communicating, all telling signs. Friends upstairs can go invisible at the snap of a finger, walk thru walls, levitate by thought travel.” (Email, October 21, 2015).

Esoteric Sources
I assume these quotes are only of interest to those rare species in the ufo research community who are connoisseurs of Esoterica or students of the Esoteric Tradition. There are of course lots of references of mixed quality to underground civilizations in occult literature but I have selected some of special significance.

Alice Bailey
The investigator of UFO and paranormal phenomena will, in the books by Alice Bailey, find an enormous amount of data regarding various phenomena and entities. In the Esoteric Tradition as represented by a.o. Helena Blavatsky, Alice Bailey and Henry T. Laurency we find a philosophy that is consistent and rational with a profound humanism at its core. It also constitutes, in my view, the best and most interesting multiverse paradigm and theory aviable to explain the multitude of intriguing UFO and paranormal phenomena documented by many researchers.

Some months ago I found a reference of interest to this source study. A reference I have never seen mentioned or explained by any esotericist. To me it indicates a hidden society of people, physical like us, in esotericism symbolised by The Rider On the White Horse.

”The point to bear in mind is that this Rider on the white horse is no extra-planetary Entity or Life, but is essentially One like unto ourselves – human and animal combined as are we all, but fused with divinity and inspired from on high… The Rider is one of our humanity Who has reached a pre-destined goal and Who – for very love and understanding of man – has remained for ages in the secret place of revelation (as it is esoterically called), waiting until his hour comes around again and He can then issue forth to lead His people to triumphant victory.”
Alice Bailey, the Externalisation of the Hierachy, p. 269.

Edward Bulwer Lytton
In 1871 one of the most famous classics in esoteric literature was published, The Coming Race, by Edward Bulwer Lytton. He was a member of the real and secret Rosicrucian order and obviously decided to disclose the ”secret of the ages”, but using a fictional form. I am somewhat surprised that, to my knowledge, no ufologists, nor esotericists have noticed the close resemblance between the people described in The Coming Race and some contactee experiences. It is even mentioned that the inhabitants of the inner earth travel in ”air-boats” (p. 56) Quotes are from the edition published by Wesleyan University Press, 2005. Ufologists who have made an in depth study of contactee cases will surely associate these quotes with various observations made in another context:

”It was the face of a man, but yet of a type of man distinct from our known extant races… Its colour was peculiar, more like that of the red man than any other variety of our species, and yet different from it – a richer and a softer hue, with large black eyes, deep and brilliant… The face was beardless… They seemed as void of the lines and shadows which care and sorrow, and passion and sin, leave upon the faces of men, as are the faces of sculptured gods…  I never met one person deformed or misshapen. The beauty of their countenances is not only in symmetry of feature, but in the smoothness of surface, which continues without line or wrinkle to the extreme of old age… ” (pp. 12, 14, 60)



Ferdinand Ossedowski
”You know that in the two greatest oceans of the east and the west there were formerly two continents. They disappeared under the water but their people went into the subterranean kingdom. In underground caves there exists a peculiar light which affords growth to the grains and vegetables and long life without disease to the people. There are many different peoples and many different tribes… In cars strange and unknown to us they rush through the narrow cleavages inside our planet.”
(Ossendowski, Beasts, Men and Gods, pp. 154)

Meade Layne
Founder of Borderland Sciences Research Associates (BSRA) he had a deep fascination with the inner earth enigma. During a conversation on this issue with one of the Inner Circle members on November 22, 1947. Medium Mark Probert, hearing the answers clairaudiently and relaying them to Meade:

”Yes, indeed, there are vast underground regions (caverns) that stretch from equatorial Africa to the North Pole, and also to Venezuela., where there is an opening… The opening in Venezuela is in the southern tip, in the region north of Loreto…
(Q. of size of underground population) I would say several millions. Oh, yes, they are humans. Yes, there is some contact, but mainly through their secret organizations. These people as a whole are much more healthy than those of the surfaces… Yes, in some parts of the underground world people possess a high degree of culture… Yes, there are openings in Mexico, and one in the region of Alberta, Canada.”
 (Those Underground Regions, Round Robin, vol. 18, no. 2, March 1962, p. 17).

What I find intriguing is that there are references to an ancient breakaway civilisation from contactees, esoteric sources and that ufo case investigations in several respects indicates that we are not alone on this planet. Our attitude to all these controversial data should be neither belief nor disbelief, but keeping an open mind and using the information as an alternative working hypothesis. Only further research can determine what is reality and myth in this enigma.

Finally, I have chosen the motto for this study from The Edge of Reality by Allen Hynek and Jacques Vallee: ”The UFO phenomenon calls upon us to extend our imaginations as we never have before, to think things we have never dared think before – in short, to approach boldly the edge of our accepted reality and, by mentally battering at these forbidding boundaries, perhaps open up entirely new vistas. To many, such thinking is both frightening and a threat to their intellectual security.” (p. 1)
