| The book of Dzyan is a group of "story-teller" legends which
were finally gathered in manuscript form when man learned to write. One of the stories is
of a smalll group of beings who supposedly came to Earth many thousands of years ago in a
metal craft which orbited Earth several times before landing. As told in the Book
"These beings lived to themselves and were revered by the humans among whom they had
settled. But eventually differences arose among them and they divided their numbers,
several of the men and women and some children settling in another city, where they were
promptly installed as rulers by the awe-striken populace." "Separation did not
bring peace to these people and finally their anger reached a point where the ruler of the
original city took with him a small number of his warriors and they rose into the air in a
huge shining metal vessel. While they were many leagues from the city of their enemies,
they launched a great shining lance that rode on a beam of light. It burst apart in the
city of their enemies with a great ball of flame that shot right up to the heavens, almost
to the stars. All those who were in the city were horribly burned and even those who were
not in the city - but nearby - were burned also. Those who looked upon the lance and the
ball of fire were blind forever afterward. Those who entered the city on foot became ill
and died. Even the dust of the city was poisoned, as were the rivers that poured through
it. Men dared not go near it, and it gradually crumbled into dust and was forgotten by
men."
"When the leader saw what he had done to his own people he retired to his palace
are refused to see anyone. Then he gathered about him those of his warriors who remained,
and the wives and children, and they entered into their vessels and rose one by one into
the sky and sailed away. Nor did they return."
Could this foregoing legend really be an account of an extraterrestrial colonization,
complete with guided missile, nuclear warhead and radiation effects? It is difficult to
assess the validity of that explanation . . . just as it is difficult to explain why
Greek, Roman and Nordic Mythology all discuss wars and conflicts among their
"Gods." (Even the Bible records conflict between the legions of God and Satan.)
Could it be that each group recorded their parochial view of what was actually a global
conflict among alien colonists or visitors? Or is it that man has led such a violent
exsistence that he tends to expect conflict and violence even among his Gods?
Evidence of perhaps even an earlier possible contact was uncovered by Tschi Pen Lao of
the University of Peking. He discovered astonishing carvings in granite on a mountain in
Hunan Province an on an island in Lake Tungting. These carvings have been evaluated as
47,000 years old, and they show people with large trunks (breathing apparatus? . . . or
elephant heads shown on himan bodies? Remember, the Egyptians often represented their gods
as animal heads on himan bodies.)
Only 8,000 years ago, rocks were sculpted in the Tassill plateau of Sahara, depicting
what appeared to be human beings but with strange round heads (helmets? or "sun"
heads on human bodies?) And even more recently, in the Bible, Genesis (6:4) tells of
angels in the sky mating with women of Earth, who bore them children. Genesis 19:3 tells
of Lot meeting two angels in the desert and his later feeding them at his house. The Bible
also tells a rather unusual story of Ezekiel who witnessed what has been interpreted by
some to have been a spacecraft or aircraft landing near Chebar River in Chaldea (593
B.C.).
Even the Irish have recorded strange visitations. In the Speculum Regali in Konungs
Skuggsa (and other accounts of the era about 956 A.D.) are numerous stories of
"demonships" in the skies. In one case a rope from one such ship became
entangled with part of a church. A man from the ship climbed down the rope to free it, but
was seized by the townspeople. The bishop made the people release the man, who climbed
back to the ship, where the crew cut the rope and the ship rose and sailed out of sight.
In all of his actions, the climbing man appeared as if he were swimming in water. Stories
such as this makes one wonder if the legends of the "little people" of Ireland
were based upon imgination alone.
About the same time, in Lyons (France) three men and a woman supposedly descended from
an airship or spaceship and were captured by a mob. These four foreigners admitted to
being wizards, and were killed. (No mention is made of the methods employed to extract the
admissions.) Many documented UFO sightings occured throughout the Middle Ages, including
an especially startling one of a UFO over London on 16 December 1742. However, we do not
have room to include any more of the Middle Ages sightings. Instead, two "more -
recent" sightings are contained in this section to bring us up to modern times.
In a sworn statement dated 21 April 1897, a prosperous and prominent farmer named
Alexander Hamilton (Le Roy, Kansas, USA) told of an attack upon his cattle at about 10:30
p.m. the previous Monday, He, his son, and his tenant grabbed axes and ran some 700 feet
from the house to the cow lot where a great cigar shaped ship about 300 feet floated some
30 feet above the cattle. It had a carriage underneath which was brightly lighted within
(dirigible and gondola?) and which had numerous windows. Inside were six strange looking
beings jabbering in a foreign language. These being suddenly became aware of Hamilton and
the others. They immediatly turned a searchlight on the farmer, and also turned on some
power which sped up a turbine wheel (about 30 ft diameter) located under the craft. The
ship rose, taking with it a two year-old heifer which was roped about the neck by a cable
of one-half inch thick, red material. The next day a neighbor, Link Thomas, found the
animal’s hide, legs and head in his field. He was mystified at how the remians got
where they were beacuse of the lack of tracks in the soft soil. Alexander Hamilton’s
sworn statement was accompianed by an affidavit as to his veracity. The affidavit was
signed by ten of the local leading citizens.
On the evening of 4 November 1957 at Fort Itaipu, Brazil, two sentries noted a
"new star" in the sky. The "star" grew in size and within seconds
stopped over the fort. It drifted slowly downward, was as large as a big aircraft, and was
surrounded by a big orange glow. A distinct humming sound was heard, and then the heat
struck. One sentry collapsed almost immediately, the other managed to slide to shelter
under the heavy cannons where his loud cries awoke the garrison. While the troops were
scrambling towards their battle stations, complete electrical failure occured. There was
panic until the lights came back on but a number of men still managed to see an orange
glow leaving the area at high speed. Both sentries were found badly burned . . . one
unconscious and the other incoherent, suffering from deep shock.
Thus, UFO sightings not only appear to extend back 47,000
years through time but also are global in nature. One has the feeling that this phenomenon
deserves some sort of valid scientific investigation, even if it is a low level effort.
