Those That the Elite Worship

[Interloper]

A number of books and magazine features have been written, over the years, about the presence of strange non-human “counselors” or “advisors” whose presence has weighed heavily upon some of the most important figures in world history. The exact nature of these shadowy beings has always been a matter of controversy: some have associated them with space aliens, time travelers, envoys from the court of the King of the World in legendary, subterranean Aghartha, tutelary spirits, ascended masters. As these entities never present their credentials, and the gulf of centuries separates us from their activities, these accounts are safely circumscribed to myth and hearsay. These visits, while usually reserved for individuals endowed with political or military power, have sometimes been bestowed upon others, as in the case of the resplendent beings who visited the alchemist Facius Cardan in August, 1491, and who discussed the nature of the universe and the immortality of the soul. These entities, appearing before the befuddled alchemist, were arrayed in gold and purple armor with glittering boots. One of them, the foremost among them, was described as having “the most commanding air...and a face that was dark red in color.”
It is these beings, over the millenia, that have been sought out by those who would be kings. They were once responsible for the creation of our species, and have remained involved in human development ever since.

But there is more to this world than imagined by materialists.

4. There is,

but I'm not sure it is actually represented on this earth by corporeal mystical beings. That smacks far too much of a Roman Catholic upbringing......................

5. Ergotism

It explains a lot and even the learned men of their day were affected by it as waves of it swept across Europe.

6. Available to All

Not a few great men who have changed the course of History have had the protection and counsel of the 'gods'. Heroes, bent on carrying out the most astonishing adventures of all times, are not be the exception. This thrills us, stimulates us, and tells us at the same time that we are not alone. We have, without question, aside from the inspiration afforded to all, the guidance of GOD .

7. There are a lot of mysteries out there. I had a mental breakdown once...

...due to getting the wrong anti-depressant, and I had all these images streaming into my mind, which had compressed mathematics in them. The mathematics were basically in the realm of game theory (which I didn't know about at the time), showing disasters and breakdowns that can come from certain "games" economies and civilizations engage in. The sense was that this was being "broadcast" into my mind by a now dead alien civilization as a warning to others not to go the same route.

I forgot about it all after I got my head together, but then I read about the guy the movie A Beautiful Mind was about. The director of the movie took liberties making his delusions about spooks, in reality he believed he was receiving messages from aliens, and his work came from them. His mathematical work was in game theory. It was enough to make me raise an eyebrow as his delusions were so similar to mine.

8. An Interesting Question

The interest evinced by these entities in human warfare has been picked up by other authors, such as William Bramley, and the late Andreas Faber Kaiser, who mentions the manifestations of angelic and/or saintly figures throughout the conquest of the Inca and Aztec empires by the enterprising Spanish conquistadores. These beings sought to terrify the native resistance, assuring them that all efforts at fighting the invaders were fruitless. Strategic matters are also of interest to them, if we believe the legend that the Emperor Constantine, while tracing out the walls of his “New Rome”, said that a being was guiding him in delineating the walls – aided by a spear – on the soft soil of the Bosphorus. The city of Constantinople would stand for a thousand years as the final redoubt of the Roman tradition, and endures today as Istanbul.

Readers with more than just a casual interest in ufology and high strangeness are surely reminded by all this of how “groups of three” appear to be prevalent in non-human manifestations of which we have records in the 20th century: the notorious Men in Black tend to appear in threes, some classic encounters with “ufonauts” in the Fifties and Sixties involved landing parties (for want of a better term) of three beings. Christian researchers have seen in this the possible nature of such presences, which remind us of the beings that visited Abraham and Lot. But regardless of their origin or activities in the past, the more fitting question would perhaps be:

Are any contemporary world leaders receiving advice from such figures, and if so, what outcome might this have for our times?
