Aliens

There’s been lots of very weird American talk about the aliens in the last two years or so. “Weird” because usually their government seems to deny and/or suppress such “leaks”, and this time it looks very much like they’re the source. So, what’s my take on it?

When I was a kid, I thought the existence of aliens was a sure thing – all those UFO and abduction reports had to be at least partially true, the size of the Universe practically guarantees that someone is out there, and sooner or later someone would figure out a way around the limitations posed by the speed of light.

The change in my thinking happened when I researched a few things for completely unrelated reasons; I researched evolution of life and mass extinctions, and I realised that our existence is contingent upon multiple extremely unlikely things. For instance, single (non-binary) stars are extremely rare, and binary stars tend to produce solar flares of extreme strength that routinely sterilise the habitable zone. I hear it commonly claimed that our Sun is an average, ordinary star, but that’s actually very far from reality. Our Sun is extremely well behaved for a star, and that’s a necessary condition for life not having to reboot after every major solar event. Also, the solar system is very unusual in a sense that it doesn’t have gas giants closest to the star, and instead has them in the outer system. Furthermore, Earth has an extraordinarily powerful and stable magnetic field, which is the reason why it doesn’t look like its twin planet, Venus, and the smaller sibling, Mars. This magnetic field, along with axial stability, seems to have a common cause – the Theia impact in the formative phase of the solar system, where a Mars-sized planet collided with Earth, and the ejecta from the impact formed the Moon. Apparently, the heavy core of that planet merged with the Earth’s core, while the lighter parts formed the Moon, leaving the Earth with twice the expected amount of heavy elements, whose radioactive decay keep the Earth’s interior liquid, and core spinning. There also seem to be some atypical things about Earth’s core that are still poorly researched, which might actually contribute to the magnetic field’s strength. Also, the Moon seems to axially lock the Earth, making it an extremely stable environment for the evolution of life.

Life itself in its most basic form seems to have come from space, and the evidence for this is that we’ve found all the basic chemicals for it on the asteroids and comets, and the earliest life on Earth seems to have formed as soon as the planet itself solidified enough. So, life had a very early start here, and yet it took an inordinate amount of time for it to form multi-cellular organisms, and the amount of luck necessary for that to happen seems to be extraordinary. I used to think that life itself is unlikely, but once you get it started, it will eventually evolve into intelligent life. However, based on what I’ve learned, the opposite seems to be the case. Life itself might actually be quite likely, and will probably start whenever the conditions are even the least bit favourable. Anything more complex than the simplest single-cell organisms without a defined nucleus and organelles, however, might be extremely uncommon and likely requires singular extremely unlikely events across billions of years.

Then we come to radiation. There’s cosmic radiation, and then there’s solar radiation. Earth has multiple layers of shielding against both – there’s the magnetic field, then the thick atmosphere, and then there’s the ozone layer. Without those, life might exist in the deep oceans, but not on land. Also, without the magnetic field, the oceans would evaporate into space, like they did on Mars, and probably on Venus as well, if they even formed in the first place.

I’m not saying that life is impossible somewhere in the atmosphere of the gas giants, or in the oceans of their satellites. I would actually be surprised if it didn’t exist there. However, I would also be extremely surprised if we found anything multi-cellular.

Our kind of life – multi-cellular, on the ground and not in a liquid or gaseous medium, complex, intelligent, and forming a civilization – has so many extremely unlikely prerequisites, that I became convinced that as large as the Universe is, it is too small for this to happen more than once. Earth indeed seems to be the centre of the Universe, if we define central in the terms of significance, because everything of significance seems to happen here. Sure, the Universe is big, and full of stars and black holes, rocks, dust and gas, but rather than being a “pale blue dot” of insignificance in the middle of nowhere, Earth seems to be the most special planet around the most special star, where extremely unlikely things occurred across time, to make everything we know possible.

My next argument against aliens is that, if they exist, they are inconsequential. We can argue back and forth as to why an alien species would come here, and produce nothing more than sightings of unexplained things, and occasional abduction testimony, but the fact remains that if the aliens are here, they are doing nothing of consequence as far as human life is concerned. If something is inconsequential, I’m certainly not going to dedicate much thought to it.

Sure, something might happen to change my mind – for instance, if aliens actually do exist and contact us, then they will cease to be inconsequential, and I will have to revise my ideas about how common our type of life is in the Universe, but so far it seems to be that the more we know, the more special Earth seems to be.

  1. I've been tuning from time to time into all that recent hype about UFOs, or UAPs as they call them nowadays, and my best guess is that it's just a CIA/military propaganda operation. They want their friends and enemies to think – or at least wonder – that they have antigravity drive they reverse engineered from Roswell crash, earthquake weapons, and so on. Grusch keeps hinting stuff that's been a wet dream of the whole UFO community for the past 75 years or so, but all that keeps happening is a bunch of seemingly important non-events. New witnesses which can't say anything new. Private briefings with congressmen, which then stop asking questions. Old blurry photos get released, but no real substantial evidence.

    And they keep surfacing stuff that's silly at best. They surfaced that Brazilian alien mummies hoax again, which was proven to be hoax way back. In March, there were a bunch of UFOs in the air, that were implicitly connected with Grusch testimony… that turned out to be unregistered drones. Then they tried selling the story that those were Iranian drones, launched from a mothership somewhere in international waters – which is complete lie, as Iranian drones wouldn't hover for days without Americans trying to shoot them down. I don't know what they were, but the best breadcrumb I found was that they were drones used to monitor radiation – seems that they lost some radioactive material, maybe even nuclear warhead. No idea if they found it.

    So far, all that UAP stuff seems to be used simply to misdirect. Until I see something substantial, I'll consider it propaganda at best, and fake news used to flood the zone. I mean, you have US Air Force intelligence officer feeding bullshit to the media, bullshit that somehow always ends up being beneficial to Pentagon and Langley.

    That said, I'd really like to be able to think of a good explanation of Tic Tac video and the whole testimony which seems valid, and one of the rare testimonies that has proper evidence. Shame that it's too little to conclude much.

  2. I apologize for the expression, but if potential extraterrestrials are merely material beings that have reached a higher level of technological development, then I shit on that line of evolution.

    If, on the other hand, they are far more capable than even the most accomplished yogis—I mean authentic spiritual beings whose path of cognition possesses its own distinctive characteristics—then the people of Earth must clearly appear to them as prisoners of some being, which may also be called Satan. After all, a type of being capable of perceiving the level on which other beings function whenever it directs its attention toward them would surely be able to see what is being filtered through here on Earth, what is being supported, and what is being discouraged.

    So, what kind of extraterrestrials are we talking about—assholes, or highly developed spiritual beings? Where are the visible lines of genuinely beneficial influence upon humanity?

    • This earthly artifact is not such a rare depiction that it cannot be found:

      https://www.clevelandart.org/art/1973.69

      In fact, there are others as well—in the form of sculptures, paintings, and temples containing such representations.

      So whom exactly should extraterrestrials be looking for here? What kind of knowledge could they transmit? Technology—“material technology,” “advanced material technology”?

      If extraterrestrials were merely technologically more advanced material beings, and if a being clearly capable of descending through Darshan were to look upon them, I think they would shit their pants.

      • Of course, who knows whether Satan, as the administrator of this place, might have conceived of and introduced into the World a type of beings that serve as a distraction while simultaneously acting as a kind of firefighters? – Aliens, show must go on?

        • I treat potential aliens the way Buddha treated the Gods – they can't help us attain liberation from the world, and so they are useless. Wasting time and energy on them is a mistake. I mean, sure, I accept the possibility that I'm wrong, but I had this attitude for multiple decades and I still have zero issues with it.

          • If extraterrestrials are needed to introduce a new line of material technology merely to buy more time, and if that wretched line reflects Satan’s taste, then I find it almost laughable to keep repeating just how stupid he is. The guy with administrative privileges keeps raping the same primitive line over and over again, projecting his own miserable spiritual condition onto this creation, in which he torments everyone and everything, forcing them down to his own level of existence.

            I agree. If someone is suffering from a problem involving the fascia that surrounds a muscle— for example, in the back around the shoulder blade —then technology in the form of low-frequency pulse magnetic therapy can relieve a spasm that has persisted for several days and has developed within the fascia as a result of a particular ionically induced biochemical condition in the body.

            That is simply how the parameters of this world, this Virtual Reality, have been configured… So, certain interconnections are built into the system here: one thing leads into another, and permanently defined laws and regularities exist. By applying intelligence, it is possible to connect the individual blocks—the presence of magnetic field affects the trajectory of electrons—and there you have a mechanism capable of acting upon a spasm within the muscular sheath.

            Therefore, advanced technology is not necessarily evil. But what about ethics? What kind of ethics do Divine beings possess? And extraterrestrials—who are these beings in ethical terms?

            • "And extraterrestrials—who are these beings in ethical terms?"

              But of course, Satan can count on beings into whom he has instilled the ethics of the world that he personally governs and arranges to nail Jesus to the cross. If earthly beings can do it, then presumably Aliens can as well—provided that Satan is their father, the one who authorized them to operate here.

              • It's quite easy to answer the question about their ethics.
                Let's assume that they exist and they are here, that at least some info about abductions and them working with governments is correct. In that case their ethics is shit and they are bastards on the level of Americans, just another problem to solve, rather than a helping hand. Fortunately, I see no true evidence of this.
                If they are here and they are actually avoiding contact, it means they either don't give a fuck about us, or at least they decided not to interfere. In that case they are an inert element – completely unworthy of spending time and energy on, which returns us to my initial argument that I don't give a fuck about aliens because they are inconsequential.

                • Generally speaking, regarding aliens, I will emphasize once again that artifacts associated with Hinduism and Buddhism are neither rare nor invisible. And yet, it appears that aliens have no interest in them—for example, no interest in seeking out the people who are relevant in this regard: yogis. Aliens apparently prefer abducting people and animals and studying their digestive tracts and God knows what else—some kind of materialistic Darwinian approach.

                  Considering how far humanity has advanced technologically since the time when Jesus was nailed to the cross, it would not surprise me if aliens, assuming they exist as an advanced civilization, had progressed somewhat further still. Yet along that same line of development and technological advancement, they appear to be following the same shitty trajectory—Satanically blessed, pardon me, supported.

                  At the government service where I work, they arranged for me to commute to a city fifty kilometres away. Alone, with no genuine operational need whatsoever, simply because this created an opportunity for them to torment and mistreat me. Fifteen people from other town also commute to that city by another road, but they travel five people to a car, in three cars altogether. Naturally, everyone travels in their own private vehicles. I had to spend two hours every day on a busy main road running through one village after another.

                  I soon noticed someone else on the road in exactly the same situation—a person commuting alone every day. I followed the guy to the car park and suggested that we travel together and take turns driving.

                  Now, we have been commuting together for ten years. The guy is very decent compared with what I have encountered in government services, and I have encountered more people than those working in several different people-oriented professions combined. One day, while I was sitting in the passenger seat, I commented that Elon Musk had said he would be the first to know if extraterrestrials existed and had been in contact with humans. He was probably referring to his connections within the American administration, blah, blah, blah.

                  The guy driving me then said, in a completely dead-serious voice, that nobody was going to convince him otherwise, because he knew what he had experienced. Becoming visibly disturbed, he began listing his claims: that he had been abducted, that he had suffered horrifying nightmares, that they had examined him and inserted probes into him.

                  I listened, paralysed. It was as though someone had poured wax over both of us. He kept talking and talking, while I did not move.

                  I also have a good acquaintance from Split, a highly capable person with numerous major and objectively measurable achievements in various areas of human activity. He is an exceptionally intelligent man with highly developed psychoenergetic abilities, combined with his own personal but divinely grounded ethical principles.

                  At one time, he studied reports of UFO sightings published in newspapers and broadcast in the news. Because he is a genuinely impressive individual, he managed to organize and mobilize people throughout the territory of the former country, establishing observation points where they would remain on watch and wait.

                  He succeeded in developing a theory that allowed him to predict where the next UFO appearance would occur in populated areas on Earth, based on the idea that they were mapping the planet. He discussed the theory with military pilots, and they confirmed that they would fly in the same way if they had to map a planet.

                  The theory he had formulated produced results. After the first few reports obtained from publicly available media, locations where he had predicted a UFO would appear proved to be actual sites of subsequent UFO events.

                  So think about that.

                  Aliens digging around in physical matter—what a pathetic limit to their reach. They are apparently incapable of noticing, or paying any attention to, the numerous artifacts displayed on the many enormous temples throughout the world.

                  By the way, have aliens solved the problem of the material body’s aging—at least presbyopia? And where is all this vicious-circle floundering in the material realm leading them?
