WHAT DO WE HAVE IN COMMON WITH THE “ALIENS” RESPONSIBLE FOR FLYING SAUCERS?

We have “nothing in common” with “extraterrestrials” was a response made to a past social media post of mine. Is this true?
MY REPLY: If the so-called aliens are physical beings rather than shape shifting forms of intelligent energy, then the atoms in “ET” bodies are derived from exploding first and second-generation stars. Just as the atoms in our bodies are made of stardust, so are theirs. If they are awake and are aware of that wakefulness, then humanity and the “extraterrestrials” are conscious. Thus, at the core of our mutual existences, both on physical and mental/spiritual levels, we have much in common with the non-human intelligences that we now call “ET.”
THE PERNICIOUS ROLE OF EGO
An attachment to material forms according to Eastern spiritual traditions is a definition of the ego. An extreme attachment to the human form can lead to the mistaken belief that anything or anyone that does not correspond to the human form is ugly and perhaps even evil.
SPIRITUAL TEACHER ECKERT TOLLE’S VIEW OF “SIN”
Listening to the spiritual teacher Eckert Tolle, I learned that some Eastern mystics have viewed the tendency to focus on form and ignoring the realm of consciousness as so great an error that it has been labeled as “sin.” It appears to me that we will never be successful in communicating with the so-called ETs unless we embrace a paradigm of oneness instead of our current worldview that emphasizes separation. This archaic mindset that compels us to focus on separation leads to conflict and immense suffering. To acknowledge our most basic shared aspects and to realize a profound sense of oneness, humanity will need to reduce the destructive effects of ego. Alas, few of us see this as important, let alone deem it to be a sacred duty.
MIND VERSUS MATTER & THE CONTACT MODALITIES
The predominant ideological paradigm in modern Western civilization is materialism, also known as physicalism. This philosophical paradigm proposes that matter/energy is primary, and that Mind/Consciousness is merely an” emergent property” that results from neuronal activity. If scientific materialism is mistaken, however, and Mind is primary, then we can make sense out of all the “paranormal” i.e. Consciousness based “scientific anomalies” including ESP, flying saucer contact, ghosts, Out of Body and Near-Death Experiences. These widespread phenomena have been designated by author Rey Hernandez as “The Contact Modalities” which he considers to be the result of mental manipulations of spacetime.
“10,000 CRAZY ALIENS”
The modern UFO data base contains thousands of different so-called alien phenotypes. We have descriptions of tall and short “Greys”, “Reptilians”, “Insectoids”, dolphin like beings, Nordics and Asian human beings. If most individual encounters with “aliens” are primarily psychic rather than exclusively physical, then these strange interactions can be mental “co-creations” between those individuals targeted and the non-human intelligences currently associated with what are now called UAP. Thus, the encounters are individualized. Therefore the descriptions of the non-human beings involved will be entirely subjective and consistently differ from Experiencer to Experiencer.
PHYSICAL APPEARANCES MIGHT BE DETERMINED BY HUMAN EXPECTATIONS
This explanation has been supplied by the alleged “ETs” themselves on the rare occasion when asked about their physical form. They have reportedly replied that their physical appearances are determined by the expectations of the Experiencer when they enter our realm of existence, and that their “true” form is something entirely different.
If the entire physical Universe is a kind of “holographic projection” from a base reality that is nonphysical or spiritual in nature, then Mind-based interactions with “aliens” are perhaps more “real” than encounters with physical beings from other star systems” because mental interactions are grounded in Consciousness which is primary.
If Consciousness is primary, then even in the case that the so-called aliens are primarily shape shifting entities, or “intelligent forms of energy” we share an awareness, of being awake and knowing that we are awake. If that awareness is truly “all that there is” then we have everything to share with what are popularly known of as “extraterrestrials.”
