A Fortean Interview
Yesterday, fellow-Fortean, author and good friend Marie Jones interviewed me about my cryptozoological research.
We covered a lot of ground, including my research into werewolves, phantom black-dogs, the issue of giant birds in the US, the legends of still-surviving mammoths, what drives me to continue my crypto-research, why I think that at least some of the unknown “animals” in our world have paranormal origins, and much more.
We also cover areas that some of us, at least, think are connected to Ufology, such as Tulpas. And here’s one very ufological question that came up and that I answered as follows:
QUESTION: “How close might we be to some kind of government disclosure here in the States as to the existence of alien civilizations and technology, or do you suspect we are never going to get definitive proof from our leadership?”
ANSWER: “Unfortunately, I don’t see any real scenario in which government disclosure will come, unless it benefits those in power to make the revelation. I think the idea that some UFO researchers have – namely that of loftily demanding that the government reveals all because the research community thinks the information should be revealed – is very naïve, pompously ego-driven, and not in-line with general government-thinking. If disclosure happens, I’d say the possible scenarios would be because (a) someone on the inside revealed something in error and it opened the floodgates; (b) an insider whistleblower deliberately revealed something that was undeniable; or (c) the government decides to use the “aliens are evil and here to destroy us” angle as an ingenious way to take away more of our rights and lead us further down the path to Orwell’s 1984. For me, that’s the most sinister possibility: that we might be placed into a scenario of a manufactured threat that actually isn’t really a threat, but one that is exploited for purposes of control of the masses. But revealing all just because some UFO researcher waves a banner outside of the White House or writes to his or her congressman? Not an absolute, single chance in hell.”

Ok Nick — what you said about tulpas is very fascinating. I sit in full-lotus all the time and can sense when a person’s consciousness (electromagnetic awareness) is focused in their lower chakras forcing them to feed off others’ electrochemical or emotional energy. I’ve read Alexandra David-Neel’s books and it would appear that the tulpa is similar to what’s also called “zen craziness” or “qigong deviance.” When a person fasts then their consciousness (electromagnetic self-awareness) will resonate back with its source: formless awareness or pure consciousness beyond spacetime. So fasting and mental focus through silent solitude and visualization are “fast” means of resonating back with the source of reality but the risk is that there’s a lack of strength to then utilize the electromagnetic energy created from pure consciousness. As the book, “Taoist Yoga: Alchemy and Immortality” (trans. by Charles Luk) states, if a normal person fasts they will starve to death, but if you first build up the electrochemical or emotional energy and then purify it into electromagnetic energy you will “lay the foundation.” This, traditionally, takes 100 days of celibacy along with focused meditation. When Alexandra David-Neel created her tulpa she was probably not properly storing her electromagnetic energy back into her stomach area, thereby building up and converting her electrochemical energy for proper strength. That’s the crucial step to properly building the energy and is also the most risky — for males there could be an “explosion in the laboratory” causing loss of the alchemical pill (the ionized or crystallized blood-semen). For females there could be too much fear from the pain of the kundalini (the heat opening up the channels).
So to be more specific a non-initiated person who has not “laid the foundation” is someone who will subconsciously feed off other people’s emotional or electrochemical energy since they, themselves, do not know how to cleanse (sublimate) and purify (ionize) the emotional energy into electromagnetic energy. This, btw, is most modern people, so that we turn into hungry ghosts when we die and then in that subconscious dream state return to formless awareness. Once the pineal gland is opened up and the process of transmutation is understood then the tulpa or projection of the pineal gland energy would be an electromagnetic awareness (astral body or a spirit) that in turn takes in electrochemical or emotional energy but also turns it back into electromagnetic energy which will return to the electrochemical source. This could be done consciously or subconsciously, as just an impersonal resonance process. What needs to be understood is that the energy will cycle so that while electrochemical or emotional energy is taken, electromagnetic energy is given back whereas the uninitiated person does not know how to make electromagnetic energy. But the process is really not in control of any individual — it’s an impersonal resonance. Similarly a poltergeist could do this — as a lost spirit — which then feeds, subconsciously (a dreaming ghost) off people who have weak electromagnetic awareness but strong electrochemical energy (usually young females). This is why in Mahayana Buddhism it’s taught that there are “different levels of emptiness” which really means different levels of electromagnetic awareness of pure consciousness — even though pure consciousness or formless awareness has no separation.
Humanism, which really started with Vedic Philosophy using ritual geometry and mass sacrifice, does not create a strong spirit for astral travel — a tulpa. The modern living when dead remain as hungry ghosts (dreaming subconsciously) and the living, with no strong spirits, are controlled by these hungry ghosts, to convert our electrochemical energy into electromagnetic energy for the hungry ghosts (the creation of occult technology). So modern technology, which started originally with Vedic ritual geometry, is a subconscious projection of our repressed electrochemical energy that we do not know how to use for creating a harmonious or self-aware return to the source of the electromagnetic energy, the formless awareness. It is probably more accurate to say the modern dynamic is based on a reverse-tulpa that sometimes manifests itself as pure spirit (as you’ve encountered in your investigations) but normally exists as destructive electromagnetic or iron-based technology.

Drew:
Many thanks for this. You know, you should write a book on all this and your own experiences, that would be pretty cool!

That’s weird — I started out the day obsessed with working on a lulu.com book (no publishing fee apparently). The title was realized last night and then got sidetracked with the above rant thereby totally forgetting my day’s project. haha. Instead I tried have a psychic mutual climax with these 4 females ducks while I sat in full-lotus at this lake….umm luckily it didn’t work but I think one of the ducks was pretty into it. Well there goes my book deal with Anomalist! haha.
