Your attention is Respectfully drawn to a Matter of Urgent and Critical Importance.

A BLUNDER OF FIRST MAGNITUDE

According to the daily press of the week of July 24, 1952, orders have been issued by military authorities to pilots and other operators of armed aircraft to pursue and, under some circumstances, to attack with gunfire, as opportunity offers, the so-called Flying Discs or Flying Saucers. THIS IS, IN EFFECT, AN ORDER TO COMMIT SUICIDE AND TO INVITE RETALIATION IN A MOST EXTREME AND DISASTROUS FORM.

The Director and Associates of the organization offering this brochure have for six years been engaged in an intensive study of the phenomena of the Discs; nevertheless the first facts here presented are familiar and easily accessible to everyone.

It is abundantly evident that these craft are operated by highly intelligent beings, and that they far surpass any type of aircraft so far constructed by us.

They excel our aircraft in speed, maneuverability, and power, to such an extent as to make them immune from pursuit and attack, except by their own choice. We have at present no weapon with which to engage them effectively. An exhaustive study of their observed operations and control plainly indicates that they have our nation, and the planet itself, at their mercy.

NO ACT OF THEIRS HAS INDICATED ANY HOSTILE INTENT. NO FAINTEST EXCUSE CAN BE OFFERED FOR THE PROPOSED ATTACK ON THESE FRIENDLY VISITORS TO OUR SKIES.

Numerous incidents, however, during the last six years, strongly indicate that the operators of the Discs or Saucers have abundant and deadly means of retaliation. We cannot estimate the disposition and mentality of these beings, or put any limit to the destruction they may inflict upon us if we make an unprovoked attack. All sources from which we have derived plausible information warn us with one voice:

DO NOT ATTACK THE “SAUCERS” – IN THE NAME OF GOD, DO NOT ATTACK THEM!

The repeated and desperate vehemence of this warning surpasses description. It is within the power of these visiting peoples to destroy cities and continents and even the planet itself. We have no guarantee, no reason to assume that they will not exert such powers. We have no right to suppose that they will suffer our attacks without retaliation, or that they will engage in prolonged and tentative hostilities only. It is far more likely and logical that they will subjugate our planet at a single blow.

“IN THE NAME OF GOD, DO NOT ATTACK THE SAUCERS!”

They come in friendship, with a science over-matching ours by a thousand years. They are engaged in scientific studies of geophysical changes and of our social and political conditions. Their present incursion (one out of many in the course of history) was occasioned by the release of atomic energies, which disturbed and alarmed the worlds of their habitation. This threat has now been contained by them, so that their chief concern is with certain startling changes occurring deep within our globe. But they impose no law upon us (though they could enslave us if they so desired), they exact no tribute and move harmlessly through our skies.

IF WE CAN AND WILL MAKE FRIENDLY CONTACT WITH THEM, THE GAIN TO OUR SCIENCE, PHILOSOPHY, AND COMMON WELFARE WILL BE LIMITED ONLY BY OUR OWN CAPACITY TO LEARN.

THE SINGLE PROJECT WHICH SHOULD NOW ENGAGE US, IS THAT OF ENTERING INTO FRIENDLY COMMUNICATION WITH THESE VISITORS.

(The first practical and simple step would be to repeat, by batteries of colored lights, the light changes observed on the various globes, Discs, and other craft).

Make friends with these people. Do not attack them. Try to learn from them – for we are children in their hands.

We do not make this appeal from the standpoint of any cult or religion and make no financial gain. And we cannot expound here the scientific and metaphysical concepts underlying our statements. A volume would not suffice for that purpose, since such ideas are unfamiliar (and hence unwelcome) to the Western mind. But the Visitation (as we may call it) is no metaphysical abstraction, but one of the most pregnant events in human history.

No one can predict the conduct of these Visitants – but it is certain that they are very wise, and very powerful, and so far well disposed. Yet a single piece of incredible human folly, such as the Order to Attack referred to in our first paragraph, may crumble our cities, wreck our civilization and devastate our globe.

If we are indeed to be destroyed by fools in high places – then that perhaps is written into our destiny. But as a people, this quietism is not within our nature; we struggle and protest against the fools whom our own folly has raised up. And as to this present issue, this insane Order to Attack, we make appeal (hoping that it is not already too late) to ALL PERSONS IN AUTHORITY EVERYWHERE, AND ESPECIALLY IN THE ARMED SERVICES, to immediately forbid and overrule such orders.

IN THE NAME OF HUMANITY AND COMMON SENSE.

The danger is real, imminent, and of magnitude which our present pages cannot describe.

DO NOT ATTACK THE “SAUCERS”, IN THE NAME OF GOD, DO NOT ATTACK THEM!

A FEW FACTS CONCERNING THE DISCS OR “FLYING SAUCERS”
THE “FIREBALLS” AND OTHER RELATED AERIAL PHENOMENA

Denials of the factual existence of the Discs or Saucers, though they still persist with certain “authorities” and “experts”, are no longer worth serious attention. Such denials are rooted either in (a) an incredible ignorance, especially of the historical background (b) an equally incredible stupidity, or (c) considerations of supposed public policy, orders from superiors and the like. The end of this servile and moronic evasion is now at hand, and extraordinary events are in the making.

Nearly all of the disc-shaped flying objects come from the etheric double of Venus (not from the visible planet). They are operated either by people who are natives of the etheric worlds, or by excarnate humans who are now living on etheric (not astral) planes. They have visited our planet hundreds of times in the past. They appear, as a rule, at times of racial and planetary crisis, for purposes of scientific observation and study. Their chief present interest is in deep-lying changes in the geologic structure of the earth’s crust. They come in good will and could be of immense service to us, if we were friendly and cooperative.

The concept of the ether(s) as a universal medium of enormous density should be acceptable to any physicist. Matter as we know it is a rarefaction of the ethers and the denser media pass through our matter like wind or water through a mesh with mile-wide interstices. There is an ‘infinite’ series of ethers of increasing density – atoms within atoms within atoms without end. These form worlds of living existence outside the spectra of sense perception (sight, hearing and touch).

There is an infinite variety of visiting ‘sky craft’ besides the “saucers”, and some come from enormous distances measured in light years. Their method of ‘crossing space’ belongs to a super-physics which cannot be discussed here – but the basic fact seems to be, that these craft are made of a ‘special kind of matter’, in which the alignment of the atoms prevents the merging of their magnetic fields. This renders them weightless, and the energy-thrust is due to their rapport or resonance with the atoms of ethers.

Our information states that many discs or saucers are being seen over Russian territory, and that the Russians are intensely interested in them from a scientific standpoint, and the possibility of constructing similar craft. Such an achievement would make Russia (or any other country) the master of our planet in a few weeks or days. We invite the attention of governmental authorities to the content of this paragraph.

The Etherian peoples are not all alike, but are of many races and cultures. The word Etherian is very inadequate, but the best one available in our language. The existence of these worlds and peoples has always been recognized in Oriental metaphysics; and our own world is rooted in the etheric plane and originated from it. The ether has the same type of reality as has the magnetic field around the poles of a magnet.

The so-called Fireballs in some instances are “wipers” designed to offset the radiations and fission products of atomic explosions; in other cases they are photographic devices which transmit an image while in flight, of both the inside and outside of any object.

The present terrestrial situation is briefly this: The island universes are entering on a phase of cosmic expansion, the earth is entering new space-conditions, the etheric stresses are changing, and hence the internal stresses of the globe are affected. Deep-lying strata are disintegrating and a period of violent seismic disturbances is at hand. These are of profound interest to our Etheric visitors. No mistake could be more serious than to attack the Discs or any other type of etheric craft now present in our skies.

FOR INFORMATION OF THE PUBLIC – AND THE SAKE OF THE RECORD
A SYNOPSIS OF IMPORTANT DATA

1. More than five years ago, in the fall of 1946, Associates of the Borderland Sciences Research began an investigation of certain strange aerial phenomena known as the flying Discs or flying “saucers”, and since that time these have greatly increased in number and complexity. The Borderland Sciences Research Associates have printed many hundreds of pages dealing with these occurrences, and have issued several condensed reports similar to this present one. This does not imply that the original explanation, offered by us in 1946, has proven invalid; but only that much additional data has accumulated which requires comment. We realize that the data as a whole, and the explanation of them, are unintelligible except to a few highly informed people – and consequently appear repugnant or alarming. The difficulty is increased by the fact that no single and simple statement can be made covering the whole situation. But data offered in the following paragraphs are believed to be substantially correct. Obviously, we cannot here enter upon the scientific and metaphysical argument involved.

2. (a) The visiting space craft are of many kinds, varying widely in appearance, points of origin, and purposes. They come from different parts of the solar system, and even from enormous distances beyond. (b) Most of the disc-shaped craft come from the etheric regions (etheric double) of Venus. (c) There is reason to believe that some of the Discs are operated by excarnate humans who are now resident on the etheric Venus; but it is likely that some Discs, and numerous other craft, are under the control of Etheric people (not excarnate humans). (d) It is probable that some of them do come from visible celestial bodies and from dark stars. (e) The first small Discs, some of which were forced down by navigational difficulties, came from the Moon (which serves as a base only). (f) “Mother ships” are being used for both Discs and other types of craft; these are of great size and hover above the upper limits of our atmosphere. The small craft seldom undertake the interplanetary voyages.

3. (a) The propulsion used involves utilization of earthian and interplanetary magnetic tides – i.e., the ethers. The craft are made of a type of matter in which the alignment of the atoms is such as to prevent the merging of their magnetic fields – which renders them weightless or almost so – and the energy of the drive is derived from a rapport or resonance with the atoms of the ethers (b) the “speed” of transit is so great that it amounts to a teleportation. In fact, teleportation is the most easily understood comparison. (c) The very fine and enormously dense matter of the ethers is responsive to thought-energy, and the craft are constructed by being thought-into-form. (d) On entering the magnetic field of the earth (or any other body) the vibration rate is “converted” and the object (disc) may then become visible to us. (Any kind of apparatus has to conform to the vibratory rates of the plane where it is supposed to operate).

4. The present visitation of Etherian (and other) people is NOT a new phenomenon, but has occurred many times and in various forms throughout history. (A considerable list of such occurrences during the last century has recently appeared in a national magazine). The smallest historical knowledge would have prevented many ridiculous conjectures and ‘explanations’ by ‘scientists’ and ‘experts’.

5. The motives for such visitations are various and complex, and include (a) scientific observation and study of earth life (b) a willingness to help earth people against impending crises (c) self-protection.

This last factor (seldom present heretofore) arose with the release of atomic energy and fission products, and with the great danger and probability of a war in which atomic weapons would be used.

The release of atomic energies seriously disturbed the etheric worlds and their inhabitants, and in fact the entire solar system. These energies have the effect of disrupting the stress line of the ethers, and this in turn releases the internal stresses of the globe. “All earthquakes are ether quakes at first” is now acceptable to many physicists. The Etherians appeared in our skies in self-defense, and some form of intervention seemed inevitable.

The imminent threat from atomic fission is said to have now passed, since the danger has been ‘contained’ by the Etherians, largely through the use of the green fireballs which served as ‘wipers’ and prevented further damage to the ionosphere.

The repeated rupturing of this ionized belt (which regulates the weather of our planet) accounts for the vagaries of world weather since the first atom bomb explosions.

(Other ‘fire balls’ are photographic devices, capable of transmitting an image (of terrain, any object, inside or outside) while in flight. They do not need to return to any point of origin, but disintegrate. The record (image) can be enlarged and temporarily preserved by other (Etherian) apparatus.).

6. The motivation of the present incursion, then, is not so much self-protection (as at first), as it is to scientifically observe deep-lying geological changes, the disintegration of strata far below the surface of our globe, and the great seismic disturbances which are expected to result.

While these interior changes accompany and result from a disruption of etheric stresses, the latter is now arising from other causes of cosmic magnitude. The island Universes (solar systems) are entering on a phase of cosmic expansion and the earth is encountering new space-conditions. One manifestation of these may be the occurrence of “dark days” (complete darkness), of which several instances are on record. They are caused by enormous clouds of interplanetary ‘dust’, and are harmless though alarming.

7. It is true that landings have been made by Discs and by other craft from outer space, and that meetings have been held between these visitors and certain earth people. Satisfactory ‘proof’ of this is of course impossible – and except as a hint of future possibilities is for the moment unimportant.

8. Perhaps the greatest difficulty which the Western mind encounters, in trying to conceive of ‘Etherian’ worlds and peoples, is to understand that what we call dense matter is really a rarefaction of the ethers – and that matter cannot only be too rarefied for us to touch, but it can also be too dense. There is a spectrum of tangibility, just as there is of sound and color (hearing and sight). When an object in our world moves through the ether, or the ether through it, the operation is like the passage of wind or water through a mesh with interstices a mile wide. So physicists who are boggled over the absence of ‘friction’ are recommended to a few minutes of reflection, plus a reference to (say) Eddington’s “Nature of the Physical World” (pg 3, 30,31,32, et pas.). The relatively huge size of the interspaces within the atom is known to school boys, and the “army of symbols” referred to by Eddington “to account for the properties of the interspaces” has not yet accounted for a well-known bogie named actio in distans (action at a distance).. What we seem to have (crudely put) is an ‘infinite’ succession of nesting atoms, worlds within worlds, ethers within ethers, but with no true continuum anywhere. And this highly rational concept, be it noted, has been known for ages to the despised metaphysics of the East.

9. It is obvious that the concept of the etheric worlds and people cannot be introduced to the Western mind (a moronic child in metaphysical matters) on short notice or in a few paragraphs; and the BSR Associates have never entertained such a notion. We have, however, endeavored to reach a few individuals and small groups who might serve as nuclei in a time of world confusion. Many occultists, and particularly members of Theosophical groups, have been highly responsive.

10. The great present need (which will not be met) is to establish friendly relations with the Etherian visitors. A first step would be to reproduce, by means of banks of colored lights, the color changes of passing etheric craft. Such relationships might help us to avoid a planetary disaster, and advance our science and philosophy by centuries. But, to repeat, it will not be met. Instead, orders have been issued (according to the press) to pursue and shoot down one or more of the Discs – “as a means of demonstrating their harmlessness”. It is likely that the whole history of humanity shows nothing as moronic, and as deadly in its consequences as this reported order.

11.The “repairs” to the ionosphere effected by the ‘wiper’ fireballs will have the effect of concentrating the atomic contamination onto our own planet – with probable cumulative effects we would be reluctant to describe. A kind of ‘planetary law’ seems to exist, according to which the people of any planet may do as they please so long as the results are confined to their own globe and do not injure other worlds and peoples. The isolation of our planet, if effected as described, comes under this interplanetary law.

12. Something may yet be accomplished, at least for individuals and small groups, by disseminating such basic information as has been hastily summed up in these pages. While a known event may awaken terror, an unknown menace is more terrible still. In some degree it is alleviated by knowledge – by understanding a little about what is happening in terms of natural forces and the laws of astrophysics. Our effort should be to put aside fear for one’s personal safety and to try to help others in every possible way in a time of world-wide confusion.

13. There is NO danger from the people of the Discs unless we attack them. If we do, their retaliation may be swift and deadly, and far beyond our power to resist.

14. As matters stand at this writing (August 1952) the most imminent danger seems to be from seismic disturbances (earthquakes and volcanic action, subsidence, violent storms, ‘electrical storms’). This is a planetary phase of cosmic origins and cannot be limited or mitigated by human efforts. But ignorance and fear can multiply such disasters to truly terrible proportions. The need for individual quietude and self-control has never been greater.
