I read "CHRIS.CO", the account of the "Abduction" of Christopher Young
and I would like to say that I found it very interesting. I found
several things of special interest in the interview that I would like
to relate with the users of Paranet Alpha. These items I recall from
personal experiences, "Dreams", and from other people telling me about
strange things that happened to them.
I have uploaded my close encounter to Paranet Alpha sometime in the
past. A quick review of that encounter follows.
I was 17 or 18 years old and was returning home from the skating rink
with a friend about midnight. As we rounded the bend on route 100 and
came in view of the power tower hill which over-looks the little town
of Pearl, Ill. we observed a bright light hovering over the hill. That
hill has a large power line tower on the top of it that runs to the
power plant about a mile away near the river. The hill itself has a
limestone quarry beside it and a limestone mine dug into it. I had
always thought of the power tower being the major reason why these
bright lights (U.F.O.'s) came and hovered over this hill from time to
time. After watching Geraldo show about the landing pad in which Jim
Speiser (Sysop Paranet Alpha) was guest on the show, I considered the
limestone quarry as well.
As Butch and I entered the town limits of Pearl we stopped, got out of
the car and watched the light in the sky hoping to determine what it
was. Moments later the object moved toward us. There was no sound from
the object just a bright silver white glow. It moved toward us until it
was directly in front of us at tree top level. I had not noticed that
Butch had started to get back into the car as I was mezmerized by the
object. Butch was frightened by the object and was in a rather big
hurry to leave which cut our encounter short.
The object lifted up slowly and then moved over the Old Pearl hill
where it appeared to land.
I have had a few times in my life where events were "missing" and I had
no recollection of what had taken place, these times I recall now were
always when I was alone. I recall nothing of a "close encounter" during
these times but always felt as though I were not alone. At times I
would have the feeling that someone were reviewing my thoughts or
"reading my mind", this happens yet today but not as often as it once
did. I have had no other "close encounters" that I can recall yet I
have had strange intense "dreams" where I was in a space craft of some
kind traveling and learning of space and life on other worlds. In one
that I recall there was a larger being standing to my right who was
pointing out locations on a large viewer screen. These locations were
highlighted by red "stars" (lights) on the viewer and represented
locations where life exists in our Galaxy. When I woke up I drew a
picture of what I had seen on the viewer and indicated as closely as I
could the locations in the Galaxy where the red lights had appeared. I
remembered asking the being to my right where my solar system was and
he indicated a red light off to the far edge of the Galaxy which was
virtually alone and not near any of the other "red lights".
Knowing virtually nothing about the stars I had no idea where our solar
system was in relationship to our Galaxy. Not long ago I saw a map of
our Galaxy showing the location of our solar system. That map and that
location reminded me of the map I had drawn several years before. The
location of our system was the same in this map as in the one I had
seen on the "viewer" in the space ship. This jogged my memory to recall
the "dream". I'm willing to pass the entire thing off as an interesting
dream myself but think it interesting nevertheless.
While living in Missouri a man who I knew came to me one day and I
could see he had something on his mind that troubled him. He said he
knew that I would hear him out and not pass judgment against him for
what he was about to say. He said he didn't know anyone else he could
talk to about it. I asked him what "IT" was that he wanted to talk
about. He told me that he believed he had a close encounter with a
female being from outer space. He went on to describe a being that had
entered his bedroom one night with which he had a sexual encounter. He
said that he had a conversation with this being about things other than
"sex". I guess this is what caught my attention at the time causing me
to regard the experience as something other than "just another strange
dream." He told me he was dizzy the entire time and when it was all
over he couldn't say if the event was an exceptionally strong "dream"
or "vision", or if the encounter had actually taken place. He didn't
remember waking up so he thinks it was not a dream. Just the same what
ever it was troubled him so much that he had to talk with someone about
it and he picked me at the time. I must withhold his name as he is in
the ministery now and I feel sure he would rather not have his name
mentioned in connection with my account of his story.
I find thought and the power of thought a mystery in itself. If one
should believe something strong enough and long enough it becomes a
"reality" to that individual. In this man's case however I believe he
had an encounter of some kind. I'm not sure if it was spiritual, or if
it was extraterrestrial.
I do not recall seeing any alien beings face to face in dreams or
otherwise. My lapse of memory could have been caused by fatigue as I
was very tired. The account I recall to be the most prominent was while
I was driving home one night about 1 am. I was about 8 miles from home
and I remembered pulling onto a 2 mile straight. I remember it was like
someone or something was sitting in the passenger's seat, a presence
was there and it was like it was talking with me. The next thing I knew
I was waking up the next morning draped over the steering wheel of my
car sitting in the drive way wondering how I had gotten home.
What do I think happened, I don't know. I had made the trip many times
and it's possible I went into some form of self hypnosis and drove home
by reflex action. I think that is more likely than having an encounter
with extraterrestrial beings. My sense of some presence could have been
the result of a dream that I had while in that hypnotic state. I could
even call that presence my "guardian angel" if you will.
I would guess there are many people who could tell you they were
driving somewhere (while sober) when all of a sudden they find
themselves either at their destination or somewhere else and were not
able to recall how they got there. I would say the odds were against
these events being caused by encounters with extraterrestrial beings. I
believe there is a logical explanation to most of these memory lapses.
I do believe in extraterrestrials, UFO's etc. as you can see from my
account of a close encounter. My strange "dreams" about flying in a UFO
also cause me to wonder. I do not believe they are the results of
watching sci-fi movies. I have a great deal of doubt that I have ever
been inside of a UFO in "body". I think there might be some form of
telepathy that might explain how a person could have memories of such
things. Referring to 2 Kings of the Bible as a record of history, read
the account of Elisha and how he "went in spirit" to learn secrets (2
Kings 5:25-26 & 6:8-12). Elisha called it "going in the spirit", some
might call it astro-travel, others might call it a form of telepathy.
Paul in the New Testament made record of being in spirit with a church
and knowing things that were going on there. Was he speaking
figuratively or did he have the ability to actually "go in spirit" to
see what was going on ?
What if each and every one of us has this "un-trained" ability causing
us to see and hear things from another consciousness. If so what
directs our "subconscious" to "tune" into other sources ? If we don't
know and don't understand then these things are passed off as "dreams"
with little or no meaning. If they are taken that lightly then why
bother to research the theory ? If on the other hand there really is
something to it it could help explain other things such as people
believing in "previous lives". What if these people are unconsciously
"tuned" to the "frequency" (if you will) of the consciousness of a
person who lived in the past ? Wouldn't they be able to see and tell
the same things as if it had been their own "past life" ? If this is
the case then their misunderstanding is understandable.
If this is also the case then I should think that beings such as
extraterrestrials would have knowledge of it and be able to make use of
it as they desire. They could use this "telepathy" to communicate with
each other, with other species such as humans, animals, etc. They could
communicate between their space crafts without being over-heard by
conventional radio as we know it. They might even be able to
communicate to their home world without the delay of "conventional"
light speed communications.
By using such an advanced form of telepathy they might be able to make
their presence felt and possibly even appear to materialize to a
person. This image being sent to the mind of the individual they wish
to show themselves to.
They could have a system of amplification as well. If two or more of
them thought on the same subject I should think that womuld have more
impact than one alone. They could have a device that could amplify
their projections as well. If the "thought" is availible the
possibilities are endless.
I submit my theories and encounters for scientific consideration.
