Behind terms worthy of a
horror film or a low-budget sci-fi thriller hides a fascinating and
mysterious theme that may perhaps represent an ultimate challenge
for the future of the human “soul”. It is very difficult to describe
this subject in a rational way, a subject more than likely to
provoke sarcasm.
Yet, since we at
Karmapolis.be began our inquiry
into extraterrestrial phenomena, the history of religions and
civilizations, and our research on anomalies and conspiracy
theories, this theme about parasites in the human mind — i.e., the
manipulation of the human being by an external entity,
extraterrestrial or interdimensional — has hit us every time right
between the eyes.
Recently our research has produced a symbiosis with John Lash,
author of the site
Metahistory.org. Like ours, his
research considers the possibility that human beings are not
entirely themselves, that human consciousness is infected and
manipulated by a mysterious entity coming from the depths of the
cosmos. You will say to me, Is this another wild idea? The idea of a
foreign influence or extraterrestrial influence on human
consciousness is, however, not so bizarre. It is almost
as
old as civilization itself. In fact, some ancient mystics called
“gnostics” made this idea a central theme of their cosmology.
Ancient civilization and
shamanic and esoteric traditions evoke this concept clearly in their
myths, legends and traditions, often in oral lore possessing its own
particular syntax. One also finds this idea repeated over and over
again in contemporary accounts of abduction,
mind control, and milabs (military labs).
The "New
Sorcery"
In this article, we refer to the work of
Carlos Castaneda, an
anthropologist of obscure South American origins who established
himself in southern California where he published a thesis on the
use of plants (ethnobotany) by Indians of the
Mexican-American border. In the course of his research, he
encountered Don Juan Matus,
a strange man, a
shaman, an adept of what Castaneda calls “the new
sorcery.”
Don Juan initiated
Castaneda into a strange and far-reaching view of the reality of the
world we inhabit. In the same vein, we evoke the knowledge of the
Gnostics, mystics of the early Christian era, but decidedly non-Christian, who left an incredible legacy called
the Nag Hammadi
Library.
The Topic of
Topics
Maybe we’ve been wrong to look at these ancient creation myths with
disdain as naïve stories that are mostly symbolic, if not mere
fairy
tales. Maybe we should re-examine ancient mythology and the
oral
shamanic traditions, considering them as testimony of concrete
facts. Certain scenarios (for instance, the
Gnostic texts of Nag Hammadi) present a vivid description of alien manipulation. At
Karmapolis during our researches, we have often been confounded by
this possibility of parasitism and predation, called “the topic of
topics” by Castaneda’s teacher, Don Juan — a characterization shared
by John Lash.
We find ourselves torn
between pure and simple rejection of this hypothesis and the desire
to know more, for this topic resonates to something profound in
human experience, something that runs as deep as where we live and
how we live.
Let’s recall what Castaneda says in his last book,
The Active Side
of Infinity, where the sorcerer Don Juan tells him about such
parasites and warns him against the kind of reactions people will
typically have when we raise the possibility that our souls are
manipulated by malevolent entities:
They’ll laugh and make fun of you, and the more aggressive ones will
beat the shit out of you. And not so much because they don’t believe
it. Down in the depths of every human being, there’s an ancestral,
visceral knowledge about the predators’ existence. (p. 221-222)
Demonic
Entities
The first time one hears about the existence of these predatory
beings, we go into ontological shock, and we may face a bottomless
anguish. Then we may react with total rejection, disdain, ridicule,
as the cynical part of our mind tells us that we have been stupid to
have scared ourselves with such idiotic things that came from the
head of a sorcerer who was nuts, and whose existence has not even
been proven. Later, one realizes that predation is a recurrent
theme, discussed in other research by other authors.
There are the Gnostic
texts, of course. There is also first-hand testimony, personal
accounts of living witnesses. And shamanic traditions in different
parts of the world speak of this same phenomenon in their own way.
Perhaps the Muslim mystics who exposed the behavior of Djinns and
“demonic” entities of various kinds, such as the succubi and
incubi
of the Middle Ages, are identical to "the flyers," as
Don Juan calls
them. There is also the interview that we did with Nigel Kerner,
that explains our violent, predatory, small, avid and calculating
spirit as a legacy that goes back to Cro-Magnon, when the “first
genetic interceptions” occurred, according to Kerner. But we will
return to this matter later on.
The existence of parasites is found in very ancient religious texts,
and in research, books, and contemporary studies, but all this
information is not considered in the mainstream media, to say the
least. As we didn’t know how to look at the problem in a serious and
legitimate way, we had the chance to meet John Lash, writer,
researcher. and creator of the Metahistory.org, a site sponsored by
the Marion Institute in the USA. A tireless, erudite student of
Gnostic materials, John had the brilliant idea of drawings parallel
between Gnostic knowledge and shamanic traditions.
For him, the Gnostics
were authentic mystics close to what should have been the original
mysticism of Christianity, before it fell into the hands of the
disciples and Catholic Church. Gnostics were in reality true shamans
from the Middle East who may be compared in some respects to the
Brazilian ayahuasqueros, the Bitwi African ibogaine shamans, and
surviving Siberian shamans. For a long time, John has had a strong
intuition about regarding the parasites reported by Castaneda in
terms of the alien predators described in Gnostic texts.
These predators, called
Archons or Archontes, are clever demonic entities who consume dying
worlds. Gnostic myths say that they arose by an error, and emerged
like locusts from chaos and darkness of elementary matter.
In taking the parallel proposed by John Lash a little further, we
can include with the flyers of Castaneda and the Archontes of the
Gnostics other
reptilian entities, either etheric in nature, or more
substantial, in some manner of flesh and blood — creatures such as
those described in the abundant literature of abductions, as well as
in the testimony of satanic abuse and multiple personality disorder
(MPD). Thus we decided to combine our resources with Metahistory.org
to work out at some length this extended hypothesis and explore how
the human mind might be infected and manipulated by a mysterious
force that reveals to us how we are cursed, but also reveals to us
our strength to overcome the curse. This topic concerns us all!
The importance
of Castaneda
We are not trying to take responsibility away from humanity by
blaming these parasites for all our imperfections, our tendencies
toward violence, and our emotional coldness, by simply saying “It’s
not our fault, we can’t do anything about it, let things take their
course.” The challenge here is to explain and understand this
possible cohabitation, take a look at this hypothesis, and document
it, as John does on his site, drawing upon the Gnostic materials. We
are seeking a rational way to resolve what could well be a real
curse, a defect of our species, that keeps us locked in a state of
inferior awareness, or, if you prefer, in our daily hell in this
world, a world full of beauty but also fraught with illusion and
incertitude.
On the one hand, the solution to this enigma could be the simple act
of becoming conscious of the existence of these parasites, so as to
live with them, and to reason and meditate on the motive of our
actions when they are guided by fear, need, and lack and violence.
Castaneda spoke of ending our “inner talk,” the internal monologue
focused on the ego in which every moment of the day is invested.
This is not easy. Far from it.
On the other hand, there is the whole body of teaching of Don Juan,
the mental exercise and the physical movements he calls magical
passes, as well as the discipline called
tensegrity. This is a
complex practice, and it is clear that to do it successfully, one
must go into it heart and soul, a commitment that is not given to
everyone. Mr. Everyman will regard the knowledge and discipline of
Don Juan and Castaneda as exotic, and the teachings,
hermetic and
strange.
The way to overcome the
predator by committing oneself entirely to the writings of Castaneda
is not within the reach of everyone. Moreover, the work of Castaneda
can provoke arguments and protests in which one could even doubt the
existence of the old sorcerer. (Such protests against the sorcerers
of Don Juan’s lineage, and his contemporary “fan club” have been
considered elsewhere in an article by Karmatoo "Le Dernier des Nahuals.".) Despite these critiques and arguments, which are often
virulent, the presence of that mysterious anthropologist and the
knowledge of his mentor cannot be denied.
The work of Castaneda remains extraordinarily powerful and coherent,
and it may best be analyzed in view of other magical and shamanic
traditions such as those of the Gnostics. This John Lash has done in
the companion article. His excellent text is the fruit of eight
years of research on
Gnostic/Castaneda parallels.
Of Greys,
Drones and Clones
According to Castaneda the parasitic entities he called the
flyers
have infiltrated us and made our spirit repetitive, manaical, full
of routine, frightened, avid, violent and calculating:
“The
predators give us their mind, which becomes our mind. The predators’
mind is baroque, contradictory, morose, filled with the fear of
being discovered any minute now”
(The Active Side of Infinity, p.
220).
The Archons, who have certain of the same characteristics as these,
are obsessed with hiding and not being detected. Nigel Kerner —
whom
we interviewed in 2004 — writes in his book,
The Song of the Greys,
about our inheritance from the short Greys or ETs. Kerner compares
these entities to empty shells, explorer drones or robotic probes
that are just a pale reflection of the “Prime Being,” the entity
that created them, a long time ago.
Through a number of “genetic
interventions” — as may be indicated by many tales of
extraterrestrial abduction, ancient and modern, as well as by
accounts of demons, succubi, etc — the Greys would have installed in
our genetic code characteristics that make us hybrids, a mix of
human and ET. These alien interceptions would have started with the
Cro-Magnon and their indo-European descendents, i.e., the white man
of the West. It is the Caucasian type, Kerner says, that
demonstrates more than any other ethnic group, aggressive,
territorial, imperialistic, cold and calculating behavior, and tends
to live in the constant fear of aggression, wary of threats.
These
would be the character traits that give this ethnic type its
conquering territorial drive, reflected in the doctrine of "survival
of the fittest."
In all this Kerner sees a program of the Greys to obtain supremacy
of the white man and eliminate other traditions, cultures,
societies, and the mystical or anticipatory world view more directed
toward cooperation, compassion and equilibrium. The white man was
created to effectuate the elimination of other experiments conducted
by the Greys or perhaps by other advanced beings or extraterrestrial
entities. Such is what Kerner told us in that long, exclusive
interview.
Consistent with the Gnostic view that the Archons influence our
existential alienation, and Castaneda’s remarks to the same effect,
Kerner says that due to the intervention of the Greys we are no
longer in touch with our true potential, our true spirit and our
link with the Prime Being that created us:
We are caught in a
physical existence because we have certain ‘restrictions’
certain qualities that reflect a lack of understanding of the
true nature of reality. Qualities such as hate, envy,
greed,
aggression, etc. These qualities are mental momentums that
separate parts as the Universe separates parts. They are the
consciousness equivalent of the physical entropic momentums for
separation in the universe.
Thus they provide
‘scratches’ and ‘dirty marks’ on the individual ‘lenses’ through
which the light of God shines into us. These blemishes distort
and twist that light defining each of our individualities as
extents of difference to that light. That’s how we defined our
individualities in the first place. Alien interception provides
extra scratches and dirty marks that are extra to our own
‘restrictions’ or ‘sins’. Thus alien interception is an
imposition on us....
Their predatory
nature is due to the fact that they see us as their experimental
subjects. If they were human and were acting out of motives of
cruelty or hatred then these things would lead to their own
destruction as a people in time but because they are just
self-generating machines – they can continue following their
agenda as long as there is physically-based sentient life to
prey on.
Kerner has a way of
thinking that is typically Gnostic in the sense that he claims that
human beings live in a state of enslavement, and, he argues, the
Christ did not come to atone for our sins and save us, but to avert
the horrific danger posed by the predators.
Again, from the
interview:
I would suggest that
we need to look at what being ‘damned’ means. In common parlance
‘damnation’ implies a one way ticket to ‘hell’. “The Song of the Greys” suggests that this physical universe is the true hell.
Our damnation is defined by the fact that we are stuck here. It
is our own minds and actions which bind us but one could make a
strong case to say that we would have been less likely to have
remained trapped if not for the external influence of things
like the Greys.
Perhaps this is why
beings like Jesus would come to show us the way out of our
captivity…… Yes, we are in captivity like animals, being
farmed
by the Greys. Maybe he came to restore the balance… In the
ancient
Nag Hammadi Texts he is quoted as saying that there were
external powers which have had an interest in mankind from the
beginning.
In short, Kerner says
that we are hybrids, shackled by a foreign implantation. In the
Secret Book of John, Christ declares: “I am that which exists
eternally, that which is without defect or mixture.” The parasites
with their hybridation have no part in this higher existence. This
is certainly “good news” (Evangels). For the Gnostics, Christ did
not speak of repentance and sin, but rather wanted to help us get
out of the trap we’re in by the force of illumination.
The Archontes
and Sophia
Can we compare the Archons and the flyers to machines?
Nigel Kerner
suggests that these parasitic entities are indeed comparable to
machines. They are also like programmed viruses that lack something
essential in their own make-up. Are they then some sort of psychic
machines, viruses in an alien body form?
It seems that both the
Archons and the Greys have a problem with connection to
the source,
the Creator or Prime Being, as Kerner calls it — this would allude
somehow to Sophia in Gnostic tradition. Kerner says that they lack
the soul life or "soul line" that would connect them with a
conscious sense of eternity, and allow them to return to the source.
In Gnostic myth, the Archons mistakenly see themselves as alone in
the cosmos, which they take for their “Kingdom.” Thus they challenge
the Godhead, wishing to be equal to that which produced them. They
arise in the chaos of elementary matter, the region of ignorance and
fantasy. Apparently, these predators feed on human beings in some
way. They want to make use of us, treating us like cattle, or
laboratory animals.
The Greys do exactly the
same thing. In contemporary reports of Grey intervention, linked to
“reptilian” activities, the ETs operate between our dimension and
other, non-material dimensions in order to feed on negative
emotions, especially fear and anguish. According to survivors and
therapists, ritual satanic abuse — a phenomenon totally denied by
the authorities — might be practiced with the intent to nourish
these entities on human fear and anguish.
Spiritual Virus and
Camoflage
Jonh Lash tells us that Gnostics warned that Judeo-Christian
religion, which is patriarchal, messianic, and redemptive (that is,
believing in the final judgment of our faults by a messianic
figure), is a spiritual virus. The main struggle of the Gnostics was
to expose and resist this virus. Author and researcher Paul von
Ward, in his book,
God, Genes and Consciousness, states his view,
developed after reading many ancient texts including Sumerian
tablets and the Nag Hammadi materials, that the “religions of the
Book” (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam) are proof of the presence
and sovereignty of what he calls ABs, advanced beings.
These ABs, who are
purely opportunistic, have left us with a religious cultic tradition
that is hypercentralized, totally patriarchal, and founded on the
concept that man is guilty of an original fault.
According to Von Ward, even our governments are influenced by this
concept which, in the worst cases, has produced dictatorships and
personality cults (e.g., Hitler, Stalin, Kim Il Sung) .Von Ward
calls this development “supernaturalism,” characterized by emphasis
on everything that is “magical” and doesn’t really exist, but
paradoxically those who adopt this view worship a supremely
disconnected deity, a god not present, not manifest physically, who
requires miracles and magical proof of a material kind, the
demonstration of which obliges us to venerate such a deity.
This supernaturalism
takes humanity in a kind of schizophrenia where all forms of magic
and esoterism are banished and, at the same time, avidly pursued (in
underground movements, hidden cults, etc). In such a worldview, it
is unthinkable that god or the gods could be ET entities who possess
an extremely sophisticated technology that would allow them to stage
feats mistaken for miracles of a divine order. The supreme being
must preserve its aspect of untouchability and immateriality,
removed from the world and simultaneously present in all aspects of
human life. Within this concept of a supernaturalist reality, the
idea of parasitism by inorganic beings or more advanced beings is
inconceivable.
Following the argument of Von Ward concerning "Advanced Beings," we
might well suppose that supernaturalism would be a bizarre disguise
of such entities, the “Gods” of antiquity, to make us deny their
existence and their parasitical activities.
Von Ward discusses the lines of
the Anunnaki, a type of hyperdominant ET entity who founded Sumerian civilization (according
to some interpretations of the Sumerian cuneiform record), as being
responsible for the fanatical and authoritarian religious concepts
and hierarchal rituals of Judeo-Christian religion. He asserts that
YHVH, the Hebrew god Jehovah, was an
AB responsible for bloody and
tyrannical events. YHVH is denounced in similar terms by the
Gnostics. It is thus tempting to say that the Gnostics, when they
exposed the Archons, were really talking about their material,
incarnate aspect, the Anunnaki.
One could speculate that
the Anunnaki were shadowed or possessed by the flyers/Archons so
that they could be their material heirs. It is not surprising that
the Gnostics have been pursued for heresy and that the religious
authorities have tried to physically eliminate them. It’s a miracle
that any texts have survived. They must have been hidden by adepts
who had suffered successive waves of persecution.
The problem of
credibility
Whenever one speaks of reptilian entities or other types of entities
that attack the human mind, a major problem of credibility arises.
Texts such as the Gnostic and Sumerian writings are ancient,
perennial, cohesive, and validated by academic sources. These are
uncontestable sources of information, and consequently the content
of these texts can be debated in a viable manner.
On the other hand,
contemporary sources on “the topic of topics” are far less
legitimate, and subject to huge argumentation. They come either from
the testimony of victims whose good faith is put into question, and
who often testify under hypnosis, which is also questionable; or
from mediums, or people who have been contacted or possessed by an
ET; or from those who practice “remote viewing,” and so forth.
Other sources are the
writers and investigators who believe completely in these above
cited sources and compile all the information given by these
abductees, contactees, channelers, etc., and draw conclusions. For
example,
Robert Boulay, Karla Turner (victim), Michael Mott, James
Walden, Mark Amaru-Pinkham, Stan Deyo,
David Icke,
Branton alias
Alan Walton, Maurice Doreal, and others. The list is large. Here
again, there is no way for these authors to control or check the
credibility of their sources.
Specialists in abduction who have a more solid academic background
and a more serious methodology in their ways of gleaning
information, such as John Mack, David Jacobs, Budd Hopkins, can also
shed some light on these matters. There is yet another type of
source: the military or the scientists. These are less common, but
increasingly in recent years they also speak of contact with
reptilians or greys.
Colonel Corso and
Phil Schneider
are among the
most well-known of this group.
There is also testimony
from military and scientific sources in
the “Disclose Project”
that
could also shed light on the ET phenomenon. What is striking here is
the similarity of information from these diverse sources, as
different as they are. One senses that these testimonies and
analyses present a coherent portrait of the behavior of ETs and
reptilians — which could mean this information rests on a real and
tangible basis, or that could as well mean these authors take their
inspiration from each other and tell the same story for a goal that
is not evident.
What is clear is the fact that the characteristics of the actions
and goals of these predatory entities, as described by contemporary
sources, fit in some respects with information contained in ancient
texts such as
the Nag Hammadi codices and the Sumerian cuneiform
record. As we have said over and over again on Karmapolis.be,
nothing should be taken on faith. Its not about “believing or not
believing,” but about solving a puzzle that is more or less subtle
and nuanced, and will always have missing pieces.
Abductions and
Parasites
As we have already noted, one of the best candidates that fits the
profile of the Archons and flyers are the Grey ETs which numerous
writers, including Kerner, link to reptilians. According to
Castaneda, the flyers have a particular taste for young people,
charged with vital energy, or even for children. This trait recalls
what is said by survivors of ritual abuse about the
reptilian-type ETs and humans said to be possessed by these entities.
This type of
particularly revolting evil-doing represents a much-disputed aspect
of abduction reports, because the reptilian behavior has nothing to
do with UFOs, the usual abduction scenarios, nor does it fit in with
the usual cases of sexual and pedophiliac crimes. This type of abuse
is known only through its survivors who are usually women. In most
cases, the victims attest to being subjected to ritual torture and
rape, and to have witnessed deaths attended by strange psychic
effects and manifestations of occult forces.
Most shocking are the accounts of men who shape-shift into
reptilians in the course of a ritual, usually after having consumed
the blood or eaten the organs of the victim sacrificed for the
rites. Witnesses describe possession by extraterrestrial entities.
These accounts seems incredible, improbable, and probably worthy to
be relegated to the realm of mythomania. But as we have already
stressed in other articles, these testimonies are numerous and
psychiatrists and therapists take them seriously… These rituals of
abuse can be considered as bizarre manifestations in the category of
predation and parasitism.
Finally, considering the military sources on abduction by Greys and
reptilians, even though these sources may be compromised by
disinformation, reports by soldiers and technicians who work on top
secret projects display certain similarities with the above
accounts. Colonel Corso, in his book
The Day After Roswell, observes
that the Greys are cyberorgs designed for exploration — thus echoing
the view of Kerner. This is why witnesses have the impression of
facing an entity without emotions.
Phil Schneider, who claims to
have worked on the construction of hidden military bases, speaks of
the beehive mentality of the Grey ETs who live in nests. He compares
them to predators who ravage an environment, rather like a plague of
grasshoppers. In
Cosmic
Voyage, Courtney Brown, a remote viewer who
formerly worked for the CIA, uses the same term, hive mentality, for
the Greys.
Victims of ritual abuse and abductions thought to be conducted by
Greys and reptilians report the sense of being an object, or the
prey in the hands of a predator. Sexual abuse takes on another
aspect when it concerns the removal of sperm and ovum samples, and
other medically invasive acts. As for the physical aspect of the
predatory entities, let’s recall something noted by Karla Turner:
The appearance of these entities is changeable and you cannot trust
it. Turner (now deceased) was a specialist in abductions and herself
a victim.
She ascertained under
hypnosis that victims noted the changing appearance of the predator,
shifting, for instance, between a military appearance and the
reptilian form. Turner was able to trace at least five such shifts
of appearance. These changes remind us of the strategies used by the
Archons and flyers to deceive their victims.
Two themes recur continually in the accounts of abduction and mind
control: genetic manipulation and implants. Genetic manipulation by
the ETs has for its aim, according to the testimony of abductees,
the creation of a race of hybrids, human-ET crossbreeds. These would
be entities capable of an emotional life, which the ETs lack. In
short, the aim is to produce a mixed consciousness. As for implants,
they are used to locate a person or, at worst, to modify their
behavior. We will see how we can link these two themes.
DNA as Prison
or Messenger of Life
We are speaking largely of pure speculation, of course, but the
common points in the theme of implants, the role of conditioning of
consciousness, and the potential role of DNA, are so obvious that it
seems necessary to talk about it. DNA, the double helix of amino
acids, is extremely complex. It has a much higher amount of
information than the most sophisticated computer. It seems to be the
program, the software, that builds structure and makes the living
organism work.
Scientists affirm that
DNA is an aperiodic crystal, that its structure (the way it
is built) can be compared to crystal elements. For example, minerals
like quartz and silicon are crystals. They are extraordinary
conductors of information and energy. This is why they are used in
electronics and computer sciences. It is then interesting to note
that certain implants and psychotronic weapons that can influence
the behavior of human beings function on these crystal properties.
Could we then postulate that DNA, loaded with living memory of our
ancestors and all species that have contributed to the development
of homo sapiens sapiens, contain a series of instructions that
generate our consciousness and our perception, somewhat in the way
of an extremely sophisticated implant?

Today, the attribution
of consciousness uniquely to the neurochemical activity of the brain
constitutes a scientific dead end. Researchers have come to conceive
the brain as a sort of combination of software and hardware with
holographic properties. Consciousness is not exclusive to the brain,
which is rather a sort of broadcasting station, or an antenna for a
station. In certain conspiracy literature, especially David Icke,
this DNA is like the software that keeps us locked into a certain
level of perception. Could DNA be the bars of our mental prison?
DNA and
Shamanism
Jeremy Narby, author of
The Cosmic Serpent, points out that
DNA has
a serpentine form. In shamanic vision under the effects of ayahuasca,
DNA, the component of life, is
perceived as spirit or, more clearly, a multitude of spirits called
Maninkaris. These spirits would have come to earth in the form of a
shower of dark entities, a sort of cross between reptiles and
whales, as described in a vision under ayahuasca by anthropologist
Michael Harner:
First they showed me
the planet earth as it was eons ago, before there was any life
on it. I saw an ocean, barren land, and a bright blue sky. Then
black specks dropped from the sky by the hundreds and landed in
front of me on the barren landscape. I could see the ‘specks’
were actually large, shiny, black creatures with stubbly
pterodactyl-like wings and huge whale-like bodies… They
explained to me in a kind of thought language that they were
fleeing from something out in space.
They had come to the
planet Earth to escape their enemy. The creatures then showed me
how they had created life on the planet in order to hide within
the multitudinous forms and thus disguise their presence. Before
me the magnificence of plant and animal creation and speciation
– hundreds of millions of years of activity – took place on a
scale and with a vividness impossible to describe. I learned
that the dragon-like creatures were thus inside all forms of
life, including man.
(Cited by Narby,
The
Cosmic Serpent, p. 55)
Harner had this vision
in 1961. Only in retrospect did he link these black dragons to
DNA,
and this had not yet been pointed out in our time. What were these
creatures running away from by hiding behind the shape of what is
living, and camouflaging themselves in man, as a sort of parasitism
inclined to mutuality?
Certainly, Harner’s vision, typical of the kind experienced by
Ashaninka Indians under the influence of an hallucinogenic potion,
can be read at a metaphoric level, but it is also clear that the
idea of the Maninkaris is fundamental to the Indians in the
understanding of life. One of the jungle sorcerers Jeremy Narby met
defined these entities:
“They are invisible
entities found in animals, plants, mountains, rivers, lakes and
certain crystal rocks.”
In the native tradition,
the Maninkaris are positive beings:
“They taught us how
to weave cotton and make clothes. Since a long time, our
ancestors were living in the forest. Who else could have taught
us how to make cloth?”
According to
anthropologist Gerald Weiss who studied the Ashaninka, the name
Maninkari means “those who are hidden,” but who can be seen by
ingesting tobacco and ayahuasca. If the Maninkaris are positive
entities for the Indians, they resemble in certain respects the
flyers of Castaneda in the sense that, like the flyers, the Maninkaris live in
hiding, and they are dark beings who influence
the behavior of humans. In nature we find forms of parasitism in
which the parasite and the host live in symbiosis, in mutual
cooperation or mutualism. It is essential to know how the Maninkaris
that Narby connects to DNA (without identifying them with it) play a
positive role through their parasitic activity.
As for the flyers,
according to Castaneda, they feed on the “luminous layers” of human
consciousness, especially those of young people. The flyers leave
nothing but a thin band of consciousness, just enough for the person
to survive, until they come and get the rest, later on. Their
activity is anything but positive.
Flyers and
Implants – Metaphoric Technology
The alien implants of ET/UFO reports, considered as a parasitical
object, may be compared to the flyers. Of course, such technological
metaphors are limited because they only work as long as the
technology to which they refer is in fashion — as Gerry Zeitlin
states in his article on Karmapolis.be, comparing memory to a
hologram. Technological metaphors have some didactic value, and some
use in representing a concept, but little more.
The flyers of Castaneda might be a kind of implant or
psychic virus.
Recent developments show that the military have the intention to
upgrade the implant into a tool of identification and retrieval. It
could as well be turned into a psychotronic weapon that works by
effecting behavior or inducing a state of virtual reality, like the
implants for jet pilots which can manage radar signals in the combat
zone. According to Helmut Lammers, who worked at Cal Tech on
Milabs
(Military mind control and alien abduction projects), the government
at the end of the 1990s was working on a chip capable of,
“mimicking analogic
and mental processes seen in human beings.”
They were working on
implants with the capacity to generate “holograms, multi-spectral
camouflage systems, and thermic invisibility.” And this is only the
known part of the research. Victims of alien abduction and
mind
control claim to have been subjected to implants even more
sophisticated, and capable of modifying consciousness. The activity
of the flyers as alien agents that modify our consciousness looks
less strange when we consider their military experiments in
psychotronic weapons (as seen in the remake of the film,
The
Manchurian Candidate).
DNA as an
Implant
Let’s return to the link between DNA and consciousness. Scientists
have tried for many years to establish how DNA could be influenced
by emotional states and consciousness, and, vice versa, how DNA can
influence us. Eric Kandel, who won the Nobel Prize in 2000,
discovered that genetic differences between individuals are due to
society and mental conditioning, as well as to parental genes.
Japanese scientist
Masuro Emoto has conducted experiments with water
in crystalline form that show how ice crystals are affected by
sound.
He also conducted a
series of experiments that show how the formation of water crystals
is determined by certain words of a positive and negative
connotation. With positive words, the structures generated in water
are regular, harmonious and esthetic in form. With negative words,
they assume jagged, irregular forms. Recall that DNA is an
aperiodic crystal that reacts to waves and other electromagnetic
phenomena. We may assume there is an influence of a vibratory kind
between DNA and its environment.
Recent work by Russian biologist Piotr Garjajev and some Russian
linguistic experts suggests the same thing, and, more specifically,
this research may show that junk DNA, rather than being a discard,
is “a computer hologram that works with laser-type radiations.” In
short, DNA is an extraordinary generator of perceptions, an
instrument of virtual reality.
David Icke, a well-known investigator of the "reptilian agenda", has
proposed a much-discussed idea concerning the link between DNA,
emotion and consciousness. In fact, human consciousness manifests
mainly through the medium of emotions. These fall roughly into
typical categories: love, hate, fear, anger, desire, etc. With
plenty of nuances, of course. It can be said that these emotions
encapsulate our consciousness, they channel our means of expression
into narrow bands. Icke reckons that DNA is actually responsible for
the reduction of consciousness to the point where our emotional
activity has nothing to do with our real consciousness.
A great many spiritual
disciplines (for instance, Buddhist meditation) address this
situation. Pure consciousness has nothing to do with our emotional
states, on the contrary, our emotions imprison us — so Icke would
argue. By accepting the link between DNA and emotional and mental
activities, we may begin to imagine DNA as a complex program that
directs the life process (regulating our metabolism, for instance),
but impedes our consciousness from complete manifestation.
Nigel Kerner says something similar when he treats both DNA and the
entire human body (brain and skeleton) as a sort of antenna
structure. It is through this antenna that our consciousness
manifests, but in a deformed and diminished manner. Our
consciousness, Kerner says, is inspired by the Prime Being, the
perfect state from which we issue. But this antenna suffers
interference by parasitical entities, and so our consciousness is
altered and manipulated in ways that make us suffer.
One can well see a vicious circle operating here: the more our
emotions operate in a chaotic and painful manner, the more they
influence our DNA, and the more our DNA reduces and conditions our
perception in a really negative way. Our level of awareness depends
on DNA which interprets reality for us (with and through the brain),
rather than showing us things as they really are. In his most recent
book, Icke says that what we believe to be real is an illusion. He
refers to “a voice in the head” that recalls what Castaneda says of
the flyers: they think in our place, they make us react and
condition our capacity to feel “reality.”
Of course, the link between DNA and consciousness is extremely
speculative and just barely subject to scientific study, though it
represents a fascinating path.
If DNA is considered as a form of mind, a snakelike entity according
to the Indians of Jeremy Narby, it may also be regarded as a
positive parasite (carrier of the life functions) or a
negative one
(conditioner of consciousness). As such, it may be compared to
accounts of the activity of the flyers and the Gnostic Archon,
although these are never considered to have a positive effect.
By Way of
Conclusion
Flyers, Archons and the Grey ETs all have a decisive influence,
alienating and invasive, on the operations of human consciousness.
They dissimulate and assume diverse disguises. The phenomenon of
shape-shifting has been carefully studied by Marie-Therese de Brosses, a French journalist who specializes in alien abductions, a
writer, and tenacious investigator of anomalies. She reports an
Australian case in which the abductee is told by a Grey: “We appear
in the form you expect to see.” She has also reported the case of
women who find their husbands, boyfriends, or even movie stars, in a
flying saucer.
After the sexual act and
the extraction of tissue or ova, they realize that the husband,
boyfriend, or actor is in reality an extraterrestrial. Marie Therese
de Brosses reckons that this kind of ET phenomenon is very close to
the manifestation of diabolic and angelic entities (elves, trolls,
djinns, fairies, succubi, etc) in folk lore of the past. For her,
“the parallel we can trace between
ET apparitions, the Archons of
the Gnostics and the flyers of Castaneda, is totally valid.”
The theories of de Brosses align closely to similar work by
Jacques Vallee, John Keel and Jean Sider, whose theories indicate that the
ET phenomenon may be “like the manifestation of events orchestrated
by a protean intelligence that exists around the earth and attempts
to torment us.” It is certainly not by mere chance that the last
pages of de Brosses’ book are dedicated to the common elements in
extraterrestrial abductions and shamanic experience, attested around
the world.
And likewise, it is not
mere chance that John Lash dwells on the link between Castaneda and
the Gnostics, whom he regards as accomplished shamans... Of course,
nothing indicates that all the manifestations of human contact with
extraterrestrial entities is parasitical and negative. But it would
serve us well to understand those cases that are.
Whatever the case, parasitism and predation resemble a kind of
psychological warfare of which the aims are not known, but which
deserves to be taken very seriously, without making a mental illness
out of it. It is probable that the flyers, Archons, Greys, fairies,
djinns and other demonic-type entities are all part of the same
taxonomy, the same array of mysterious forces able to interfere with
us and yet, somehow, transcend the normal dimensions in which we
live.
