Here we have confirmation of the red lights. The witnesses were not close enough, however, to
experience the effects, but it is interesting to remark that the lights kept "going around and around"
after the scoutmaster (according to his own account of the incident) was already unconscious.
It is also interesting to note, in this connection, that over a century ago Leroux de Lincy, in his Livre
des Legendes, had this to say about the elves:
If a mortal being dares come near them, they open their mouth and, struck by the breath
which escapes from it, the imprudent fellow dies poisoned.
On October 7, 1954, Mr. Margaillon saw an object that had landed in a field in Monteux, France. It
was shaped like a hemisphere, about two and a half yards in diameter. The witness gasped for air
and felt paralyzed during the observation. The sudden lack of air noted in the Cisco Grove case is
frequently reported by witnesses of landings, as are the peculiar eyes of the small entities: reddish-
orange, glowing in the dark.
On October 9, 1954, in Lavoux, Vienne, France, a farmer who was riding his bicycle suddenly
stopped as he saw a figure, dressed in a sort of "diving suit," aiming a double light beam at him. The
individual, who seemed to have "boots without heels," very bright eyes, and a very hairy chest,
carried two "headlights," one below the other, on the front of his suit.
Nine days later, in Fontenay-Torcy, also in France, a man and his wife reported that they saw a red
cigar-shaped object in they sky. All of a sudden, it dived toward them, leaving a reddish trail, and
landed behind some bushes. Upon reaching the top of a hill, the witnesses found themselves
confronted by a bulky individual, human in appearance but only about three feet tall. He wore a
helmet, and his eyes glowed with an orange light. One of the witnesses lost consciousness. Four
other people saw the object in flight from another spot. A third group of independent witnesses in
another town, Sanson-la-Poterie, saw the craft fly away west at tremendous speed. The countryside
was illuminated over an area one to two miles wide.
It is indeed appropriate to tell the investigator of such cases (in the words of Robert Herrick's "The
Night-Piece of Julia"):
Her eyes the Glow-worme lend thee,
The Shooting Starres attend thee;
And the Elves Also,
Whose little eyes glow
Like the sparks of fire, befriend thee.
The UFO occupants, like the elves of old, are not extraterrestrials. They are the denizens of another
reality.
PART TWO: ANOTHER REALITY
During the drive between Burford and Stratford I had some startling and, to me, novel
insights into what I can only describe as the Nature of Reality. They were connected in some
way to this shining disk, and have had a profound effect on me, causing what is commonly
known as a personality change. I won't try to explain what those insights were since almost
all the religions of the world have tried to do this and have failed.
Letter to the author from a UFO witness
The central question posed by the UFO phenomenon is this: What happens to the witnesses who
have a close encounter? Are the "abductions" real? And, if so, where do these people go?
Here again it is udeful to take the stories out of the twentieth-century North American context and
to relate them to the larger universe of reports from other times and other places. The Secret
Commonwealth, after all, already took ordinary folks away. So did the denizens of Magonia, and
the sky people of American Indian lore.
Part Two of this book is concerned with the direct interaction between humans and these alleged
beings  with what we know of their physical reality and their impact on us.
As we progress from chapter to chapter in this search, the reader will see the outline of a major fact
towering above the haze of human theories and fragile dreams. This is not simply a case of a few
tales relating encounters between a few humans and strange creatures from the sky. This is an age-
old and worldwide myth that has shaped our belief structures, our scientific expectations, and our
view of ourselves.
I do not use the word myth here to mean something that is imaginary, but on the contrary something
that is true at such a deep level that it influences the very basic elements of our thoughts. There are
four components to the myth: an emotional component, examined in Chapter Four, which takes the
form of cosmic seduction, including some stories of sexual encounters that may seem shocking or
outrageous but form a significant part of the total problem. Next, in Chapter Five, we find the
celestial component that encompasses the heavenly signs, the claims of contact with angels and
with the creatures of other planets  in other words, the entire tapestry of outside intervention in
human affairs. I am careful to use the quaint word celestial here instead of the more precise and
convenient extraterrestrial because of the unfortunate misconceptions the latter term now carries in
our culture.
In Chapter Six we examine the most difficult topic of UFO research: the psychic component in the
sightings. It is an aspect of the phenomenon that all the official studies, and most of the private
ones, have tried to avoid, but it is there, and we can no longer close our eyes and minds to it.
Ordinary logic does not apply to the paranormal. I have coined the word metalogic to describe the [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
