Alien Visitation and Power of Mind


Alien Visitation and Power of Mind
Please read the Roswell incident if you need further information.
Teleportation, Telepathy, Mind Reading and Creation of Forms are some of the abilities, that these alien visitors had to overcome and prevent being captured by the Area 5 investigators.

America (I believe Russia also had one facility) had a secret facility and I believe that the Bob Lasar’s story is somewhat (cooked up CIA version) of an attempt to misinform.


However, Mind Reading experiments took an abrupt stop for some unknown reasons.
But these investigations and acquiring knowledge and technology went on until the treaty was signed in 1963.
That is the period that America and Russia needed to reverse engineer and form a defense capability against alien interference and also of their own self defense.

I have nothing against we developing our own defense mechanisms as long as the third 3rd World War is avoided.

(Having said that one nasty guy from an occult cult be the one who could detonate a nuclear bomb).


We have not overcome the problem.
It is our right as human beings.

One theory is that aliens visited us was to warn us about nuclear catastrophe.
But that is only the tip of the iceberg.
They have been visiting us well over 50,000 years but the records of them have been destroyed by our forefathers except in a few land locations on this planet.
They have been exploiting this planet and human advancement was a hindrance to their exploitation.
I tend to believe, that they have had a hand in creating secret societies and religious cults to subjugate us.
Partial disclosure was due under President Obama and he probably gave up, under pressure (who pressured him I can only speculate).
The 2012 to 2014 Ha Hoo about world catastrophe is one side of the story.
It was all hushed up.
Then came President Trump and we will never know of the true history of mankind.

(The Partial Test Ban Treaty (PTBT) is the abbreviated name of the 1963 Treaty Banning Nuclear Weapon Tests in the Atmosphere, in Outer Space and Under Water, which prohibited all test detonations of nuclear weapons except for those conducted underground.
It is also abbreviated as the Limited Test Ban Treaty (LTBT) and Nuclear Test Ban Treaty (NTBT), though the latter may also refer to the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT), which succeeded the PTBT for ratifying parties).
Underground testing had adverse effect on the original tectonic plates (many earthquakes) and I believe most of the global warming is the result of fossil fuel and coal power generation.
We Ceylonese have joined the band wagon now.


America under President Trump wants coal industry and fossil fuel to prosper.
All these stories about total disclosure are now covered by the dust of global warming scenario.

If the world leaders do not have the guts to come to reality, it is the time for the Buddhists (Dalai Lama included) to spread the Dhamma around, the Globe and ask for real state of affairs from super states and super-leaders
 
If they do not they cannot be recorded as heroes in human history.

UNO as an organization has failed and it will fail as long as it is funded by America.

The Lord Buddha had subtle messages about (his visiting the deities and deities visiting him) all these scenarios but did not deviated from his role as a teacher and to teach us;
Metta, Karuna, Muditha and Upekkha.
Upekkha (equanimity) is the highest state of mind one reaches only after emancipation.

Following is a summary of the Jhana states and the special Abilities developed in Jhana state 5.

Abhinna

1. Iddhividha
Flying through the air, walking on water, diving into earth, creation of forms etc. belongs to this category.

2. Dibbasota
Is the celestial ear, also called clairaudience, which enables one to hear subtle or course sounds far and near.

3. Paracittavijanana
Is the power to discern the thoughts of others.

4. Pubbanivasanussati
Is the power to remember the past lives of oneself and others. This is the first supernormal vision the Buddha developed during the first watch on the night He attained the enlightenment.
With regard to this knowledge the Buddha’s power is limitless while in the case of others it is limited.

5. Dibbhacakkhu
Is the celestial or divine eye also called clairvoyance which enables one to see heavenly or earthly things far or near which are imperceptible to the physical eye.
This was the second knowledge the Buddha developed during the second watch on the night of his enlightenment.
These five kinds of supernormal visions are worldly, to this be added the sixth supernormal knowledge Asavakkhayannana knowledge with regards to the extinction of passions which is supermundane or the Nibbana.
The first kinds may be developed at any period but the last only during a Buddha cycle of about 2500 to 5000 years (my interpretation).
