Don Juan dealt with all of this in a very pragmatic way. He said that “we have a companion for life. We have a predator that came from the depths of the cosmos and took over the rule of our lives. Human beings are its prisoners. The predator is our lord and master. It has rendered us docile, helpless. If we want to protest, it suppresses our protest. If we want to act independently, it demands that we don’t do so.” (Castaneda, 1998, p. 218)

And, I would like to add, that the predator gives us clever psychologies and philosophies that attempt to explain the mysteries of our world so that we live under the illusion that we have a clue about what is going on!

We have to remember the other point don Juan made: “I want to appeal to your analytical mind. …Think for a moment, and tell me how you would explain the contradictions between the intelligence of man the engineer and the stupidity of his systems of beliefs, or the stupidity of his contradictory behavior. Sorcerers believe that THE PREDATORS HAVE GIVEN US OUR SYSTEMS OF BELIEFS, OUR IDEAS OF GOOD AND EVIL, OUR SOCIAL MORES. (emphasis, mine) (Castaneda, 1998, pp. 219-220)

At this point, there is another illustration that I want to recount. It is a tale from “In Search of the Miraculous” by P. D. Ouspensky, the Russian mathematician, and philosopher. It was supposedly told to him by his mentor and teacher, G. I. Gurdjieff.

“There is an Eastern tale which speaks about a very rich magician who had a great many sheep. But at the same time, this magician was very mean. He did not want to hire shepherds, nor did he want to erect a fence about the pasture where his sheep were grazing. The sheep consequently often wandered into the forest, fell into ravines, and so on, and above all they ran away, for they knew that the magician wanted their flesh and skins and this they did not like.

“At last the magician found a remedy. He hypnotized his sheep and suggested to them first of all that they were immortal and that no harm was being done to them when they were skinned, that, on the contrary, it would be very good for them and even pleasant; secondly, he suggested that the magician was a good master who loved his flock so much that he was ready to do anything in the world for them; and in the third-place, he suggested to them that if anything at all were going to happen to them it was not going to happen just then, at any rate, not that day, and therefore they had no need to think about it. Further, the magician suggested to his sheep that they were not sheep at all; to some of them, he suggested that they were lions, to others that they were eagles, to others that they were men, and to others that they were magicians.

“And after this all his cares and worries about the sheep came to an end. They never ran away again but quietly awaited the time when the magician would require their flesh and skins.” (Ouspensky, 1949)

In order to awaken, first of all one must realize that one is in a state of sleep. And, in order to realize that one is, indeed, in a state of sleep, one must recognize and fully understand the nature of the forces which operate to keep one in the state of sleep.

It is absurd to think that this can be done by seeking information from the very source which induces the hypnosis.

“Theoretically, (a man can awaken), but practically it is almost impossible because as soon as a man awakens for a moment and opens his eyes, all the forces that caused him to fall asleep begin to act upon him with tenfold energy and he immediately falls asleep again, very often dreaming that the is awake or awakening.” (Ouspensky, 1949)

We have already noted that Joseph Campbell pointed out that there have been, (to his knowledge) two significant inversions of the serpent image in history. In both cases, the original meaning was twisted so that the serpent was not longer the “source of life,” but was the enemy and must be rejected and stamped out in all philosophies and religious rites.

This seems to have been a multi-stage operation. Gods who had been consorts of the Goddess, represented by the serpent, acquired the serpent image for themselves. Soon, they were no longer represented by the serpent, but by the fact that they killed the serpent. Then, the many-gods idea was replaced by the “One God” concept, narrowing the field considerably and paving the way for greater and greater control of humanity in many terms.

But why in the world would “Reptoid” type beings do something like that? Why would they manipulate the minds of humanity, possibly use time manipulation to effect some of these “alterations,” which would seem, on the surface, to be diametrically opposed to their objectives?

The answer is fairly obvious and pure Machiavelli: create a “Decoy” enemy and pretend to be the saviour while actually pulling the net tighter and tighter on your unsuspecting prey who is looking elsewhere.

Remember this? “Beware of false prophets who come to you dressed as sheep but inside they are devouring wolves. You will fully recognize them by their fruits. Do people pick grapes from thorns or figs from thistles?… A good tree cannot bear bad fruit; nor can a bad tree bear excellent fruit.” (Matt. 7:15,23)

It is interesting that the analogy is to a “tree,” one of the traditional images for the serpent.

It is my opinion that we have “two trees” here: a “good tree” and a “bad tree.” We have the serpent that represents life and creativity and our DNA.

And we have an “evil tree/serpent” that comes to us disguised as materialistic philosophies, religions of salvation by vicarious atonement which include all sorts of marvelous phenomena including miracles and apparitions of virgins and crosses; psychologies that attempt to explain away the realities of the ethereal world as illusions and delusions; and in the present day, aliens who claim to be our “creators” and therefore our “gods.”

And, there is a very deep and hidden reason why these Reptoid aliens wish us to abhor the serpent – because it is the symbol of that which can save us: our DNA, the heritage of the Goddess who gave her blood for our redemption. But that is a matter that must be discussed AFTER we examine the material on “abductions.”
