CALM, COOL AND A COLLECTIVE

In 2008, for a period of roughly four months, I became obsessed with aliens. Yes, I was constantly questioning the existence of life on other planets. I even did hours of research, trying to reconcile the questions I had. In my mind, it only made sense that there was life elsewhere. Especially when you think of infinity. If space is infinite, how can there not be life somewhere out there? For me, the probability of life existing only on Earth was and remains a statistical impossibility. Certainly, we are not alone.

Through the course of my research, I learned quite a bit about “The Grays.” These are the stereotypical aliens that we read about with large heads, bulbous eyes and thin bodies. When people recount abduction stories, their memories are usually of the Grays. According to some conspiracists, President Eisenhower even signed a treaty with them [The Graeda Treaty] allowing them to abduct whomever they chose as long as they provided a list of potential abductees to the U.S. Government.

“Experts” on the Grays also claim they are a collective. Because they are telepathic, they do not communicate with language per se. Each Gray is able to plug into the thoughts of any other, which hopefully eliminates the confusion that language can sometimes create. The concept behind the collective is that it operates very much like a beehive. Everyone in the collective is tasked with duties that benefit the collective.

In fact, because the Grays are telepathic, all of their thoughts are plugged into one collective mind, outside of which no Gray can operate. For some reason, I found this concept fascinating. Why do you ask? Because I began to believe that we, as humans, are also meant to function as a collective, but for egocentric reasons, we have created barriers to this reality.

Years ago, I read of similar ideas in a book called, “The Mutant Message Down Under.” Although I had a few problems with this book, I truly adored the underlying message within. The book is fictionalized, which suggest that liberties were taken with elements of a true story. It speaks of Australian Aborigines and how although we see them as primitive, they are quite advanced. In this book, they are depicted as also being able to communicate with telepathy. And not only do they live collectively with one another, they are also plugged into Mother Nature, treating her as a fully functioning member of the tribe. This was an extraordinary idea to me. Supposedly, when they come across possible food sources, they ask the universe if it’s okay before eating it, so as not to disturb the delicate balance that nature searches for.

In this story, the idea was put forward that we are all telepathic, but in modern society we shut ourselves down to it. We base our lives in large part on deceit. We don’t want to disclose our salaries, or sometimes where we live. Oftentimes, we don’t want to discuss our true views so we close ourselves off. But when you think about it, we are not completely shut down. How many times have you felt someone was staring at you, or did you realize that someone was upset even though they didn't mention it? These are remnants of our abilities to plug into one another. As we develop these sensitivities, we will then be able to develop true compassion. Without asking, we will know exactly what it is that someone needs and whether or not we are able to provide it. What a concept!
