The Extraterrestrial Contact Movement a Bibliography UFOs and the Extraterrestrial Contact Movement a bibliography Volume Two: The Extraterrestrial Contact Movement b y GEORGE M. EBERHART The Scarecrow Press, Inc. Metuchen, N.J., & London 1386 Copyright *>1986 by George M. Eberhart Manufactured in the United States of America VOLUME TWO: THE EXTRATERRESTRIAL CONTACT MOVEMENT 131- CONTACTEES BEFORE 1952 The term "contactee" originally referred to a small group of individuals who in the 1950s claimed a direct contact with the space people that piloted the flying saucers- These contacts usually contained many psychic elements (telepathy, psychokinesis, dematerializations) as well as a religious or an ethical message. However, for at least 200 years before George Adamski's first contact in 1952, various people have claimed contact with extraterrestrials and their accounts bear a strong resemblance to the later saucer contactees. While spacecraft are present or at least implied in most of the accounts af­ ter 1952, they are not integral to the contact because communication with * the aliens is usually by telepathy. Before 1952 UFOs are almost completely absent, with visits to or from other planets accomplished through an out-of­ body experience- Most of these early accounts confined their contacts to beings from Mars (11028, 11036, 11083-84), with only a few from Venus (11020) or other remote, nameless worlds (10024). One of the first writers to claim an extraterrestrial contact was the Swedish mystic Emanuel Swedenborg (11075-77), who described his "astral journeys" to each of the planets known in the mid-18th century- Also includ­ ed in this chapter are the works of theosophists H.P. Blavatsky (11004) and C.W. Leadbeater (11041-43), who were in contact with the ascended masters, a group of highly evolved beings said to be in control of cosmic destiny. Some of these masters were thought to live on the planet Venus. More recent students of the ascended masters, especially Guy Warren Ballard (10993-11001) claimed contact with these Venusians as well as a host of extraterrestrial masters from other planets and solar systems. Another important early con­ tactee was John Ballou Newbrough, whose book 0AHSPE (11055) was transmitted through him by archangelic beings and described the 24,000-year spiritual history of the earth.— J.

  • THE CHELA and the PATH: Keys to Soul Mastery in the Aquarian Age by El Morya
    I direct this series to those moving in the wind of the Aquarian cycle. To those who would move into the new dispensation yet know not the way to go I say, there is a Path. Step by step it has been carved by the initiates of the sacred fire. Over thousands of years the barefooted devotees have worn a trail over the rocks. The way is known of us. It can also be known by you. In support of Saint Germain, Master of the Aquarian Age, exponent of the flame of freedom to mankind, I place the jewel of my crown upon the altar of the Great White Brotherhood, that those who have lost the way may find it again. The path to our abode is steep. The way is fraught with unknown dangers, yet the peaks of pride are more jagged than the uncharted heights. I come to clear the way for the chelas of God’s will—those who would become chelas of the ascended masters. Whether Christian or Jew, Moslem or Zen Bud- dhist, or none of these, know, O seeker after higher reality, that the path of initiation can be trod wherever you are. But you must take the first step. My respon- sibility is to guide and guard: yours is to follow. With the full faculties of mind and heart and soul, you chart the course of your life.
