By Brent Raynes When a UFOlogist in Sweden Compared Notes with me regarding UFO abductions, paranormal events, and beings of mythologyÉ In a letter to me on May 18, 1978, a ufologist in Sundbyberg, Sweden, shared with me the following interesting thoughts and details: I talked to (name withheld) on the phone yesterday. He said hed been unable to write for awhile as he had fallen down some stairs and smashed his face pretty badly. On top of it he got a cold. Seems as hes got accident prone after his contacts. This reminds me of a contactee case I investigated some years ago. A middle-aged pair had constant trouble whenever they tried to get to their contact-point. Either their car broke down or there was something else. This pair has had hundreds of UFO and ESP experiences. The woman is clairvoyant and when out in nature she claims to see the little people. On October 30th 1965 there was a massive flap over Sweden and then they observed several small humanoids floating around their car. The creatures had big, hypnotic eyes, just like Mothman. The woman has also met an Adamski-type humanoid on a boat in Norway. He was wearing a one-piece uniform and gave her several predictions about the death of Martin Luther King and some personal things. This couple, who have since become my very good friends, have had so many experiences that it would take a book to cover them all. Strange phone calls, invisible entities in their apartment, furniture moving of itselfÉYou name it they got it. John Keel met them when he was here in 1976. The latest development has involved the man who has become a trance medium. They are now cruising all over Sweden giving teachings from an old Arab called Simeno!! I would favour the hypothesis that the teachings come from their/his subconscious as the philosophy presented is really their own, a combination of theosophy and spiritualism. Besides my UFO study Im very interested in parapsychology and all things occult. As Keel and Vallee pointed out and as you probably have found yourself there are many striking similarities between UFO humanoids and the devas, elementals and fairies described in the occult literature. Personally, I think the term energy-creatures is a good description of these what-ever-they-are. Its like some energy zero in on certain individuals under certain conditions and this energy can manifest itself in many ways. Sometimes the contactee can partly control it himself like Uri Geller and his metal bending. In 1974, I investigated an abduction case which happened at Valletuna, north of Stockholm. A man, electrician, got an impression to walk a certain route. There he saw a very intense light. He threw himself to the ground but claims he never reached it but was instead sucked up in the light. Then he remembered nothing more until he was at home again. During hypnosis though he described the usual abduction tale, how he was examined by some strange entities. He wasnt sure of their appearance but they seemed transparent. After this experience he became very sensitive to electrical and other energies. He also had several ESP experiences and said he had met and talked to an ape creature in a dream calling itself Hanuman. This is odd as he knew nothing of the Hindu ape god Hanuman. What to think of it? Brad Steiger mentions several encounters with old gods in Gods of Aquarius. Archetypes in the subconscious? | |
