Beyond the Beyond: Who Are They, and Where Do They Come From? — Part One

Beyond the Beyond: Who Are They, and Where Do They Come From? — Part One

I have been immersed, on and off, in this world since I was ten years old and had my own sighting over Lake Utica in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Over the years, I’ve read hundreds of book on the subject and watched countless documentaries. I’ve spoken with other researchers, investigators, and abductees, trying to get to the bottom of exactly what the phenomenon is.

But the closer you move to it, the further away it seems. Each answer poses two more questions, and you’re often left wondering if you’ve made any progress at all. Some of the cases that I thought were absolute gospel while growing up, as I looked into them more as an adult, seem to crumble before my eyes and turn into what are not-so-obvious hoaxes. But there are others still with no explanation. Eyewitness accounts by people in prominent positions of society. Photographic and physical evidence. Government “leaks” and official testimony.

After years of researching, I’m often left with the question: who are they?

Many different types of supposed extraterrestrials have been documented over the last eighty plus years. I’ll go over some here:

Grays

The earliest depiction of these creatures is perhaps from H.G. Wells’s The Man of the Year Million, in which he described future humans as having no nose, no mouths, no hair and large, round heads.

Aleister Crowley famously drew a picture of a being he called Lam, a creature he said was a “preternatural entity” whom he had contacted through ritual magic. This ritual, called “Amalantrah Workings,” was said to allow the contact of beings from outer space and across different dimensions.

Through his workings, did Crowley open the dimensions between the world of man and the world of Greys? Other occultists have also encountered Lam, and said that his demeanor is that of “cold, computer-like intelligence.”

The Betty and Barney Hill abduction case also describes aliens with grayish skin and large eyes.

Novelist Whitley Strieber perhaps popularized this archetype with the cover to his 1987 book Communion, a dead horse he’s been repeatedly stomping and kicking for the last forty years.

I read both Communion and its sequel, Transformation: The Breakthrough, as a teenager, and while I do not necessarily think he is completely full of shit, there are indeed many questions when analyzing his story. Regardless, Communion was in thousands of book and grocery stores in the late 1980s, and between that and possibly Spielberg’s Close Encounters of the Third Kind, helped to solidify the supposed appearance of aliens in the minds of millions of Americans.

Where do they come from?

Betty Hill recounted a star map being shown to her under hypnosis. It was eventually determined that this map led to Zeta Reticuli, a wide binary star system in the southern constellation of Reticulum.

Bob Lazar claimed he was told in a meeting that the downed craft he supposedly worked on had come from that same star system.

Aliens have claimed to be from all over the place. From the Pleiades to Mars to Venus to Sirius and Alpha Centuri, there is one problem with listening to anything these beings have to say. They are liars.

I spoke with an abductee once who claimed the aliens were here to try and make us more docile. That the human race was an aggressive, war-mongering species that could not get its act together unless someone, or something, intervened. These grey-looking aliens received nutrients from sleeping in a vat, claimed to be part plant and part animal, and told the abductee that they served some higher master and were envious of man’s freedom. They were a peaceful race, they said, just trying to make the world better. And the person I interviewed was convinced of this. The only problem with this claim is that, according to him, they would come in the middle of the night and rip him out of his bed kicking and screaming. They could float through walls and take anyone with them, and he would wake up in a chair in a cold room hooked up to wires and other things, held in place by some unseen force and frightened out of his mind.

That doesn’t sound so peaceful to me.

Another race of beings is called The Tall Whites.

These seem to have originated from Charles Hall, a former U.S. Air Force weather observer who was stationed at Nellis Air Force Base in Indian Springs near Las Vegas, Nevada. Hall said he witnessed these beings working with the military, and that they were tall with white hair, pale skin and large eyes. He claimed to have many interactions with them over the course of the time he spent there.

They had the ability to communicate telepathically, were extremely intelligent, and had advanced technology they were teaching humans how to use. Hall wrote books about them in a series called Millennial Hospitality, and continued to speak about them at various lectures and UFO conferences.

Hall claimed that they are from a nearby star system, although where exactly that is remains unknown. Evidently, they have been visiting earth for quite a long time and monitoring human activity. Were they exchanging technology out in the vast spaces of the southwest desert, or perhaps collaborating on some plan kept secret from the rest of the world?

Stay tuned for part two.
