Many Dimensions (Part One)
Jeff Wells
"They come in at a funny angle." - The Invisibles
In the conclusion to their 1975 conversation The Edge of Reality, J
Allen Hynek and Jacques Vallee brainstorm various UFO theories,
although then and now, "UFO" is both too imprecise and too fraught
with pop baggage to convey much more than its own parody. But in
that case, what should we call them, and how might we explain
manifestations and liminal phenomena as broad, and untidy, and
bizarre as the mile-wide disc sighted over the English Channel last
week and Joe Simonton's pancakes?
Vallee begins by asking, "What if we were writing 'The UFO in the
Year 2000'?" He then hypothesizes, correctly, that the next 25
years and more will pass much as the 25 before. "Every two or three
years there's a flap somewhere. There is no visible effect on
society, there is no direct threat, there is no mass landing;
that's one scenario." Hynek notes dryly, "Well, the theory that
they are going to invade us would have to change." To which Vallee
comments, "If they are hostile, and they've been hostile for 25
years, they're certainly not doing a very good job of invading us!"
True enough, but invasion is one thing - and it is the one thing
disinformation repeatsad naseum from Roswell to Dulce for the
benefit of those who mean to hoax and exploit UFO events - and
hostility something else.
In the course of their discussion Vallee suggests that it needn't
be the US government as such which serves as the Earthly master and
keeper of secrets of the phenomenon, as assumed by many of those
championing "disclosure." Rather, he wonders whether that role of
contact or channel or controlling agent might be assumed by an
"occult society" (Though of course, if that's true, it could be
expected that there would be considerable overlap between the
occult order and secular governance.)
Vallee continues:
Much of technology is very linear. The reason we have radio
telescopes and the reason we have radar is because of World War II
- because someone was already an expert with radio waves and
happened to think of the right configuration along the lines of
technological development. If somebody, say way back in the
fifteenth century, had found an entirely different science on that
basis....
Suppose a group had investigated along the lines of rational
thinking and finally contacted other forms of consciousness? They
would have kept it secret, because their leaders were worried of
the consequences of releasing it into an unprepared world....
What's wrong with my scenario, then? Well I'll tell you what's
wrong with that: we know that occult organizations in the US are
usually groups of crackpots, idealists and little old ladies. But
then, maybe there are groups and occult societies that really have
kept themselves secret. If so, a group like that could have the
motivation and the means to manipulate public opinion on a grand
scale.
Vallee's mention of somebody, say way back in the fifteenth century
is almost certainly an allusion to John Dee, Elizabethan scientist,
occultist and court spy. Dee's Enochian system of "angelic"
evocation - an entirely different science - was preserved and
embellished by esoteric, Masonic-born orders such as the Golden
Dawn and the OTO, and has entered both UFO lore (for instance, the
Naval Intelligence officer who, in 1959, channelled an alleged
alien entity by the Enochian name of "Affa") and cyberculture
("lonelygirl15" flees "the Order" and its mysterious Enochian rites).
The alchemical opening of "portals" and the crossing of dimensions
- we've been over this weird ground before. Something different,
though, is that the linear science to which Vallee referred may
soon reach the point at which it could do the same.
Last week, CERN's Large Hadron Collider received its final
"megamagnet," though because a smaller superconducting magnet
failed during a expectedly routine pressure test in March its start-
up date will likely be pushed back several months from its
anticipated November launch.
The LHC will search for the Higgs boson which, it's theorized,
determines the mass of other elementary particles, and is the last
unobserved component of the "Standard Model." But physicists like
Harvard's Lisa Randall believe the Standard Model isn't all there
is, as CERN's new collider may demonstrate. Secrets it may make
manifest include extra and even infinite spatial dimensions to
which we are routinely oblivious.
UFOs are frequently observed performing actions that defy an
explanation in three dimensions. They swell and contract, split and
come together, as strange as a 3-D figure would appear to
Flatlanders if it penetrated their 2-D world. Witness Jane Chapin
claimed to have observed an egg-shaped UFO pass through the trees,
as though they didn't exist, and not above them as she'd initially
told researchers. ("I could see they wouldn't believe me if I told
them the truth," she explained. "They were such nice people. I
didn't want to shock them.") Abductees too, often describe
violations of three dimensional space. Sandy Nichols told author
Brent Raynes that "It doesn't matter how many times they've taken
me through the walls, or the windows, my mindset is that, 'Oh I'm
going to hit this wall with the top of my head and it's gonna
hurt,' but then the next thing I know is I'm actually going through
the wall":
It's really weird because all of a sudden I see the outside and I
can move my eyes and I see part of my body still in the wall or the
window. But my head, and say shoulders, are already outside....
Then I see a light.... and it's like I get in this light and it's
like a light elevator that takes me up.... here comes this metallic
looking craft...and then the next thing I know I'm already in the
craft.
Of course this sounds an awful lot like an Out-of-Body-Experience,
and perhaps it was. Or perhaps extra physicaldimensionality is a
persuasive mimic of astral states. If so, then intelligences native
to such dimensions could easily masquerade as gods and angels, and
Earthly orders committed to their devotion could keep them well
fed, depending upon their appetites.

CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substanceânot soap-boxingâplease! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'âwith its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright fraudsâis used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
