George Van Tassel – The Sage of Giant Rock ~ Part II

by Bryant and Helen Reeve

Advanced space beings are masters of energy. Van talks to his space friends in a matter of fact way and helps them to focus these rays and to adjust their intensity so that he can endure the vibrations.

If either the focus or the intensity of these rays or energy beams becomes maladjusted, Van suffers both pain and an excessive heating of some part of his body, often his feet. There is no lack of energy in the beams. On the contrary they appear to possess almost frightening power, and delicate control is of the utmost importance if Van’s body is not to be injured. Readjustments at times become necessary. Incidentally Van can “see” the space beings with whom he talks and something of their surrounds, much as we observe scenes on a television screen. He can “hear” them – sometimes like a voice inside his head and sometimes telepathically as powerful thoughts.

Van told us that at one time the energy beams got so out of adjustment that it felt as if his body was actually burning up. Since then the control center has made instant adjustments in the rays at his slightest request. He also told us that the sound communication is not limited to these more formal occasions beneath the rock, but he has received the “voice” even when driving in a car on the highway or in his room, either during the day or night. The voice is not weak. It is so loud that it overpowers everything else in his mind. We also wish to state that Van is also conscious of his human surroundings during the contacts.

When the adjustments were complete, the communication center switched the contact to a space being in another locality who gave us a remarkable discourse on an important subject of current interest. It was characterized by great wisdom, love, and a dispassionate but helpful attitude toward some of our earth problems. A few questions and answers were permissible – but not many. Van publishes some of this type of material in Proceedings, but he refrains from giving out very much of it. The reason for this is that our ways are not the ways of these advanced space beings, and their cosmic viewpoint treads too severely upon some of our most orthodox and cherished beliefs. From the nature of the remarkable information we received that night, we could easily understand why Van only releases a small and often “watered down” version of it. However, we feel that for those with sufficient understanding, Van might be willing to tilt the lid of the cosmic viewpoint of these beings on almost any subject. But sincerity of purpose, and a certain measure of receptivity are indispensable requisites. It is interesting to note that these space beings have shown themselves capable of instantly detecting hidden and ulterior motives. The presence of certain human beings who are not sincere will in fact nullify the transmission.

The history of the development of Van’s peculiar abilities in contacting extraterrestrial intelligences is worthy of a scientific study by those scientifically and seriously interested in such matters. The development has gone through a definite series of steps or stages covering almost every phase of communication. More recently it has gone through a new phase where Van is privileged in some instances to initiate a contact himself. This was not true in the earlier stages. Van is also turning to the concept that there exists throughout our solar system, under the control of the communications section of the interplanetary government, a continuous “communications beam” which he calls the “omni-beam”. It is an energy beam somewhat in the thought frequency range which is “on” all of the time – something like a continuous T.V. or radio carrier wave. Those who are privileged and able to “tune in” on it mentally can accomplish extraterrestrial communication without the use of electronic or other equipment external to the human body.

On another occasion we discussed with Van the photograph of a flying saucer which had attracted our attention on the wall in the mess shack. We found that he had written an article on it and included his own explanatory drawing in the Proceedings of May, 1955. The photograph first appeared in The Coming Of The Saucers by Kenneth Arnold and Ray Palmer, which stated that it was snapped at Hawthorne, California, on March 11, 1950, by Miss Bette Malles of Los Angeles. As we have stated Van is one of the saucerers (contactees) who understands that there is both a physical and a supra-physical side to the saucers, and his commentary on this photograph bears this out. To quote briefly from Van’s article in Proceedings:“In her (Miss Malle’s) picture she caught the ship between the stages of visibility and invisibility. The light motor, which converts primary invisible light lines-of-force into controllable magnetic energy, is clearly shown in operation. These ships nullify our gravity by remaining inside their own self-generated force fields. Consequently the earth’s force field does not affect them.”

At this point in our saucer pilgrimage both of us were fully aware of the fact that saucers were more than a physical or earthly phenomenon. While there is definitely a physical aspect to the phenomenon – of infinitely more importance there is also a supra-physical aspect. Here is a saucerer with a deep understanding of both aspects and of many truths regarding outer space itself which are not generally known. Here is a man with whom we could freely discuss these supra-physical aspects and learn much of value regarding the cosmic nature of the great subject we have been studying.

Van occasionally gives saucer lectures to special groups. His address before the flying saucer convention at Giant Rock in 1954 – which was attended by many leading saucerers and several thousands of enthusiasts – was an outstanding and inspired denunciation of man’s misuse of atomic energy and the attendant dangers to the earth. In 1955 he lectured on flying saucers before the supervisory personnel of North American Aviation in California. This effort was enthusiastically received before a record attendance.

WE TAKE LEAVE

We left the rock with regret, promising ourselves that we would return. This we were able to do on a number of occasions. As we headed our car westward toward Los Angeles. Helen asked, “What are you thinking about?”

“Well, I am thinking,” I replied, “that we have just seen a great man – a cosmic minded soul – George Van Tassel. He is an advanced apostle in the ‘new age’ if there ever was one!”

“Yes,” she agreed. “I will always think of him as the sage of Giant Rock and will always be grateful for the privilege of knowing him, He reminds me of a veritable modern ‘John the Baptist’ crying in the wilderness, ‘Prepare ye for a new cosmic age’. But now, as in biblical times, the world pays little attention. I wonder why?”

“Well,” I replied, “it looks as though we always need pioneers – rugged souls like George Van Tassel with the courage to be out in front, to be ahead of the general level of human thought. At first no one seems to listen, but later – gradually perhaps they do.”

“But what about the valuable information almost going to waste there at the Rock,” she protested.

“Yes, I feel the same way,” I replied. “If the right people could take hold of such channels of cosmic information, learn to appreciate their value, and help develop them, finance them, protect them – there seems to be no limit to the practical applications that could be brought forth for the benefit of mankind. What an opportunity this would be for retired scientists or sincere cosmic minded researchers – people of good will and with an unselfish spirit of service to mankind! But now Van is only one man and he can only do so much, but a group could accomplish much more. What impresses me is the willingness of the great cosmic beings he contacts in higher spheres of life to help us who are still on the earth plane.”

“Just what type of space beings do you think Van is contacting?” asked Helen.

“From the quality of the information coming through,” I answered, “which is probably as good a way as any to judge, they seem to be on a very high level. As near as I can judge they must be closely connected with the cosmic group which governs this solar system – particularly the communications group. It appears that mankind and the earth have reached such a critical state that we have run into the big boys – the planetary guardians.”

“Why do you think the space beings are establishing these earth contacts at this time?” inquired Helen.

“They certainly would not do this without some good reason,” I replied. “There are not too many of these ‘cosmic telephones’ in the world, but we have seen that they do exist and that they are available to certain people who learn about them and cooperate with them. Maybe if a sudden world-wide emergency should arise, they will be of untold value to those who are aware of them. Let us hope that we ourselves never lose touch with this space contact. Sometime we might need it.”

With these sobering thoughts we silently sped westward to our meeting with another pioneer saucerer, Daniel Fry. [Story coming in future article.]

AN APPLICATION OF UNIVERSAL ENERGY

On the way we passed through Riverside, California, and decided to make a brief detour to visit the orange grove which George Van Tassel had told us was protected from frost by an application of certain principles of universal energy. We understood that space ships draw their energy from “space” itself – from the sea of energy in which all life’s manifestations take place. We often wondered why man on earth did not make more use of this type of ever present energy. We were, therefore, very curious to find out about this particular example first hand. It was first brought forth by Mr. John De Land, who passed on a few years ago, and it is known as the “De Land Magnetic Control”. We found Mrs. De Land at home, and she directed us to the installation at a fifteen acre orange grove owned by Mrs. Eva B. Hibbs, also of Riverside.

The owner kindly took us around the installation, part of which dates back to 1950. It consists primarily of a thirty-two foot mast in the center of each acre of orange trees, down which run seven No. 10 bare copper wires parallel to the mast and spaced a few inches therefrom by means of plywood discs used as insulators and spacers. Each mast is made of ordinary galvanized iron pipe of two inch size at the base – which is set in concrete – reduced to one and one-half inch and finally one inch size at the top. At the foot of the mast the wires run underground and then branch out in seven different directions about eighteen inches below the surface toward the confines of the acre plot. An interesting feature of the installation is that at the end of its underground run, each wire is first coiled around an “Alnico” permanent magnet about one inch in diameter by five inches long and then protrudes upwards slightly above the soil. A short length of each wire is bent back toward the head of the mast. One wire is oriented to magnetic north, while the others are at equal seventh divisions of the compass. No man made energy or power is employed.

The installation has done a remarkable job – not in reducing the atmospheric temperature in the grove – but in preventing the fruit from freezing, despite some freezing temperatures as low as 20 degrees Fahrenheit and some unofficial temperatures of 17 degrees. Fruit that falls to the ground will freeze, but that attached to the trees will not freeze. Besides the effective frost control, the owner reports a noteworthy increase in both the yield and the quality of the fruit produced.

One reason we were particularly interested in this installation is that it lends strength to a growing conviction within us that practical usage can actually be made of technical information received by O.S.C. Methods – as Van has suggested. It seems that Mr. De Land had initially received the basic concepts for his work through a form of O.S.C. (outer space communication). What an intriguing possibility! Think of the acceleration in human progress which could result!
