What follows is an account of an alleged communication with an alien entity conducted via a medium using a process termed 'channelling' in the presence of myself and a colleague. Why there is a difference between the claimed function of a channeller and a medium is unclear since both serve the same function. The difference, if indeed there is one, is surely one of definition rather than function. While I have an open mind on phenomena of this kind, I am not entirely convinced that what is being manifested is necessarily extraterrestrial in nature. It is quite possible that the apparent communication is coming via the trance state, straight from the subconscious mind of the clairvoyant, rather like the phenomena of 'cryptomnesia' experienced during past life regression. This condition manifests from the recesses of the subjects' mind where sights and sounds of forgotten experiences are resurrected as genuine memories. There is another problem, all channelled entities while appearing to be very altruistic, offer little if any practical advice on how to achieve the state of peace, love and harmony that they preach, although during this session a measure of guidance was offered. I am one hundred per cent for the sentiments, but due to the unpredictability of the human condition, sadly at a loss to see the mechanism by which they can be achieved.

One of the most frequently channelled entities is the so-called, enigmatic 'Council of Nine' they are the most prevalent in a range of extraterrestrials that transmit similar messages via their human intermediaries. Some people infer that the 'Nine' are the Gods of ancient Egypt. The most appropriate title for these beings is 'discarnate entities' since this best describes their nebulous state. Devotees claim that messages have been received from them for the past 50 or 60 years and perhaps longer. They also assert that previously, these messages have been misunderstood due to lack of sophistication in their human intermediaries and probably attributed to spirits of the dead. The entities have evidently been attempting through us as intermediaries, to restore a balance between good and evil. Again, I cannot entirely accept what they, (or at least their channellers) claim. On the other hand, it is interesting to note certain similarities between some phenomena observed during other channelling sessions and those witnessed by me.

I should make one thing perfectly clear; I do not for one-second doubt the integrity or sincerity of the two psychics, Jim Lochhead and Anne-Marie Sneddon, who organised this demonstration for us. If they claim to channel extraterrestrials, then they are giving an honest, subjective account of their experiences. Exactly what these experiences are is open to objective scrutiny, which was the purpose of the experiment. Some ideas and concepts raised during this investigation have far reaching implications; I will attempt to address these.

We had decided to conduct the experiment at consulting rooms used by the psychics because Anne-Marie felt that there would be more residual energy there. The room we used is the largest of the three consulting rooms and is normally where the mediums conduct their classes in psychic development. We set up our monitoring equipment, which consisted of a camcorder and tape-recorders. Anne-Marie sat in a corner; she looked tired, but smiled in greeting when we entered the room. She settled into her chair while Jim switched on a cassette recorder and the sound of soft, relaxing, music and birdsong filled the room and mingled with the pleasant scent of incense. We sat quietly as Anne-Marie entered a trance state, which took around five or six minutes, Jim watched intently as she did so. According the psychics, this phase of trance can place the medium on some risk. The clairvoyant is exposed, 'opened up' psychically seeking a point of contact. In this vulnerable condition, should any malignant lower spiritual entity happen along, it could easily latch on and unless dealt with right away inflict damage. For this reason it is vital that a suitably trained person is on hand to take any necessary action. Anne-Marie's head tilted to one side as if listening to someone, she began speaking in a soft voice, there was an entity was talking through her, it announced itself as 'Golida'.

Note, The abbreviations used refer to: BA- Brian Allan, AM/G- Anne-Marie/Golida.

BA: 'Who are you?'

AM/G: 'Umm, Golida.'

BA: 'Where have you come from?'

AM/G: 'Level two.' BA: 'Level two?' AM/G: 'Yes'.

BA: 'What do you mean by Level two, is this a planet?'

AM/G 'No, it's not…not a planet…it's not like that; it's different, not physical'.

BA: 'OK then, what is Level Two?'

AM/G: 'It's a state of being'.

BA: 'A state of being, a reality, do you mean a dimension?'

AM: 'No not really a dimension, a state of being…of consciousness, there are nine of them. Level Nine is pure, of great purity. Souls come from Level Nine…souls are created here'.

BA: 'Individual souls, souls for everyone, a spiritual essence?'

AM/G 'Yes, it's not a physical thing, souls are created and…and…despatched, yes, despatched, that is the best way to describe it'. BA: 'Can anyone achieve Level Nine?'

AM/G 'Yes, it is possible but very difficult. You would have to learn Astral Travel; it's difficult and dangerous. If your spirit can go, so can your body, but training is vital. If you try to project and do not…lay the groundwork, you will be physically prevented form travelling, it is too dangerous.

At this point AnneMarie/Golida leaned towards me; she said "My friends are here as well, on your left, put your hand on the chair". I put my hand on the vacant chair immediately to my left. "It's very cold, I can feel a tingling like tiny needles on my skin, is that them?" I said. AnneMarie /Golida nodded, "Yes that's them they are beside you, there is nothing bad here, it's quite safe."

BA: 'How did you come here, did you travel in any sense of the word?'

AM/G 'No, not travel, we do not…travel. We just are!'

BA: 'You just are…what do you mean…just are?'

AM/G: 'We are here when you want us to be, we do not 'travel', there is no movement, we just are.'

BA: This is a difficult concept for us to grasp, this is like omnipresence, like being everywhere at once, we attribute this to God, is this what you mean?

AM/G: No, not like that, it is difficult for me to explain…it's like telepathy, yes like telepathy but not exactly, there is a difference. Telepathy will do, it's more like being aware of a need, of being called. We will come if we are called…if we can help.

BA: Do you have a body, a physical body?

AM/G: No, but we can use bodies, we can adapt and change, we can be whatever we need to be.

BA: Not necessarily human then?

AM/G: Yes, we can be any shape or any creature depending on need.

BA: 'Do you have a purpose, a reason to be here, what is your purpose?'

AM/G: 'To help raise consciousness, elevate consciousness'.

BA: 'That's a big job, how do you do that, what happens then?

AM/G: 'We don't need to touch everyone, elevate everyone. Once enough have been elevated the rest will be automatic; the rest will follow...the entire population'.

BA: 'Like a set of scales, once one side weighs more than the other it will tip the balance?'

AM/G: 'Yes, like that…one enough have been elevated the rest will be elevated as well. Many of my kind are here, in Tibet, the elevation is easier there and the spirituality is better, stronger'.

BA: 'Are my colleague and I part of this plan, are we part of it?'

AM/G: Yes you are part of this, we need everyone we can get, and the more involved the quicker it will happen.

BA: 'Were Christ and Buddha from your people?'

AM/G 'No, not our kind, but they were special, chosen. Their souls were…altered, changed…this is difficult…programmed, yes, programmed. Their souls wore programmed so that they could change many people, their influence would affect many.'

As she spoke I looked intently at her face; she was sitting only a couple of feet away. There was plasticity about her features, they were…morphing, changing, but I could see nothing definite, nothing would settle. We will return to this later because it is significant.

BA: 'I'm curious, do abductees feature in this, you understand, UFO's, are they involved?'

AM/G 'Yes, they have their part they are…programmed to help. They have specific tasks but they are not aware of this. They will do what is required, they are not harmed, they will not be harmed'

BA: 'Does the Millennium hold any nasty surprises for us, what about 'The Rapture' and the 'Ascension?'

AM/G 'No, nothing like that, there are many sincere people, but they are wrong, mistaken. They are deluded, there are no surprises.'

Jim interrupted. 'She's tired. It's been a busy day for her.' I'm going to end the session' Jim knelt in front of her 'Golida, thank you, but the host is tired now, it needs rest.' AnneMarie/Golida stirred slightly, 'Yes very well, I will try to return if you open your mind again, goodbye.'

We all watched Anne-Marie intently, after one or two minutes she raised her head, which had been slumped forward slightly. She licked her lips, opened her eyes and asked for a glass of water, she seemed groggy. She moved in her chair and winced, her body stiff from sitting immobile during the trance. Jim ran a glass of cold water from the tap and handed it to her. She took a sip and licked her lips again; she looked very pale and tired. She explained that she had used a lot of energy that day and her reserves were depleted, rather like a partly discharged battery, but this matter would quickly resolve itself after some rest and sleep.

This opens up some interesting possibilities regarding 'soul' and life energy. The idea of elevating consciousness is also fascinating, but surprisingly not unique. From the description given by AnneMarie/Golida, the method by which this elevation will emerge seems to be a variation on what Prof. Rupert Sheldrake refers to as 'Morphogenetic Fields' sometimes called 'Formative Causation'. Prof. Sheldrake's theory is based on the possible existence of incredibly subtle but all pervasive fields consisting of information rather than energy. All sentient beings contribute to the existence of the field; in other words, it exists because we do. This theory is sometimes used to explain ESP and other PSI abilities.

Although hotly debated, this apparent phenomenon was dubbed 'The Hundredth Monkey Syndrome' and refers to a happening in 1952 on Koshima Island off the coast of Japan. A colony of macaque monkeys was under observation by primatologists; in order to encourage the monkeys to come closer, raw sweet potatoes were left out to encourage them. Although the monkeys liked them, the sand adhering to the skins made them unpalatable. Soon, a young female (Imo) learned to wash off the sand, she taught her mother and other (mainly young) monkeys the trick. By 1958, all the young monkeys were doing this. Also, by 1959 Imo had discovered that washing the sweet potatoes in salt water improved the flavour.

Suddenly, this new trick (previously taught on a one to one basis) was common knowledge. Overnight all the monkeys were using salt water to wash the potatoes. Even more extraordinarily, the trick spread simultaneously to other macaque colonies isolated on neighbouring islands, as if a critical threshold had been breached. If enough individual monkeys learned the procedure, then it became almost a race memory, a form of telepathy. Therefore, according to Golida, like the island dwelling monkeys it appears that if enough people are prepared to embrace the teachings of the extraterrestrial entities then the consciousness entire planet will elevate automatically, quite a concept!

From this experiment, some curious anomalies emerged. The camcorder had been of no use, both fully charged batteries were mysteriously completely discharged; they would not even illuminate the camera standby light. Previous accounts about these entities having odd effects on items of electronic equipment were completely vindicated. Events such as this help corroborate the theory concerning EM fields and their effects of human beings. Perhaps AnneMarie herself because of her slightly weakened state unconsciously used the energy. Two concepts mentioned by Golida were decidedly odd and difficult to grasp. The idea that souls were created then 'dispatched'. I will not speculate on the nature of the soul other than to say that if 'soul' is not a facet of spirit in its purest form, then what is it? Does it represent the very 'élan vital' the essence of life itself? The idea of instantaneous transfer, or 'being' must surely involve mind and pure intelligence. A coalescing and merging of the essence of life with the subtle yet powerful energy fields that flow and surge around us as they govern the universe.

Regarding my comments about Anne-Marie's features, I saw her face adopt an almost birdlike aspect showing green and gold colours but with scales, not feathers. Curiously, Anne-Marie told me that under trance she experienced the impression of a large bird sitting on her hands; she could feel its clawed feet on her wrists. Although Bill and I were not were of it at the time, this was totally unique. We have learned subsequently that in 1976 when American researcher Andrija Puharich was testing the well-known showman and psychic Uri Geller. Puharich asked Geller to channel ET entities and an identical manifestation occurred; Geller appeared to have the head of a hawk. at the time this was equated to the Egyptian hawk god Horus, who with the other gods of ancient Egypt is equated with the Council of Nine. Interestingly, Puharich did not benefit greatly from his association with Geller and the Council of Nine. Geller told him that the Nine were, "Clowns playing practical jokes". Evidently, the Nine told Puharich to abandon further tests with Geller.

During our experiment, none of our equipment had detected anything anomalous; all we have are subjective impressions. Was something happening? It appears so, but it is very difficult to prove. Was this entity an angel or something else? It is possible given different circumstances that 'Golida' may have been interpreted as an angel. It is this point of 'crossover' that leads to the next development. However, before we do this we should be quite clear that angels are not confined to religious belief, this comment from the Sceptics Dictionary sums up the situation quite well: 'Traditional religionists are not the only ones who love angels, New Age mythmakers have made an industry out of angels. Dozens of books connecting angels with everything from guidance in daily life to talking to the dead to psychic healing are published every year. Sales of angel figurines and other material products are brisk. As one lofty soul puts it, "Gently guided by angels, we nurture and cherish the creative soul that heals itself."

Postscript

Recent developments is quantum physics indicate that what psychics and mediums are able to achieve in terms of communication with entities outwith our continuum is a fact which is born out by hard evidence. The deniers, obscurants and professional debunkers who attempt to protect their narrow world view by refusing to accept what is fast becoming undeniable will shortly have no other alternative then to accept the truth or be left behind in a mire of their own making
