Book Review: Alien Base by Timothy Good
The review highlights Timothy Good's book "Alien Base," which offers a comprehensive overview of claims of extraterrestrial encounters. The reviewer notes that the book seriously considers accounts from contactees like Adamski, Howard Menger, and Daniel Fry, alongside other interesting cases. One notable case involved a former royal equerry who reportedly met with an extraterrestrial being who seemed knowledgeable and capable of reading thoughts. Another case detailed is that of Caroll Watts of Texas, who in March and April 1967 encountered occupants of a craft. These beings, who claimed to be from Mars and possess telepathy, conducted a physical examination on Watts. The account bears similarities to the Squadron-Leader Shipwright sighting from June of the same year, which also involved an egg-shaped object. The reviewer also mentions a case involving Marino Rizzi, whose encounter featured beings with cat-like eyes, similar to the Bryant "Did Adamski Come Back" case of 1965. The book suggests that various beings may be visiting Earth, some fleetingly and others with more permanent bases, and that while not all races are present simultaneously, there have been periods of intensive "multi-racial" activity.
Personal Encounters by Tim
The newsletter includes two personal encounters shared by "Tim," who co-authored "George Adamski - the Untold Story" with Timothy Good.
First Encounter (1963)
In November 1963, while on tour with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in the United States, Tim had an experience en route to Los Angeles. During a stop at a roadside restaurant near the Arizona/California border, he noticed an extraordinary-looking girl with blond hair and pale features. He attempted telepathic communication, asking if she was from another planet. As she left the queue, she walked past his table, gave him a gracious smile and a bow, and then proceeded elsewhere. Tim recalls a highway sign indicating Desert Center nearby, close to the site of Adamski's initial encounter.
Second Encounter (1967)
In February 1967, while in New York City, Tim attempted telepathic communication in the lobby of the Park-Sheraton Hotel. He transmitted a request for anyone from elsewhere to come and sit next to him. A man fitting the description of a businessman entered, sat beside him, and after Tim telepathically asked him to identify himself, the man placed his right index finger on the right side of his nose. The man then stood and walked away, giving Tim a penetrating look. Tim reflects that while this could be coincidental, he found the experience distinctive and believed it was intended as personal proof and encouragement.
Lou Zinsstag on Adamski and Telepathy
Lou Zinsstag recounts a conversation with George Adamski in 1959 regarding meeting spacemen. Adamski stated that such encounters are up to "them" and cannot be arranged. When Zinsstag mentioned Adamski's ability to receive telepathic messages, Adamski advised that spoken verification would never be given, but telepathic communication could be attempted by "throwing thoughts with force." He suggested that a correct hunch would be met with a gesture, smile, or nod.
Personal Encounter by the Author (1961)
The author shares a significant personal encounter from Saturday, June 24th, 1961. Despite the extreme heat, circumstances led the author to attend a sold-out play. During the interval, a man entered the foyer who immediately attracted attention due to his fresh appearance, quick step, deep blue eyes, and high cheekbones. He looked foreign and seemed to focus solely on the author. As the man approached, the author forcefully threw the thought, "Are you or are you not a spaceman?" The man's smile increased, his eyes sparkled, and he nodded emphatically several times, making a gesture before leaving. The author describes being spellbound, realizing they had successfully communicated telepathically, similar to what George had advised two years prior.
Talk by George Van Tassel (November 1976)
George Van Tassel, born in 1910, is introduced as a UFO contactee and author who has appeared on numerous radio and television shows and given many lectures. He has been involved in magnetic experiments under the direction of "Space Intelligences." Van Tassel shared that his people have used the principle F=1/T for thousands of years and that he himself is over 700 years old, despite appearing to be around 28. He explained that every cell in the body is a separate entity, functioning like a battery, capacitor, and oscillator, and that the DNA winding is identical to coils. He discussed how cells communicate by thought, maintaining resonance and harmony within the body, likening the body's systems to a symphony orchestra. He also mentioned the work of George Lakhovsky and the Multiple Wave Oscillator, designed to recharge cell structure and improve regeneration. The talk also touched upon the idea that humans are part of a civilization composed of trillions of entities within each body.
The Integraton and Other Publications
The issue briefly mentions "The Integraton" and discusses the concept of living in the desert and developing perceptive qualities. It also references Bob Simons' electronics company and the verification of a formula by a mathematician named Bernie King. The STAR Fellowship's website is provided, offering details on research into other inhabited planets and the history of the Fellowship. The newsletter also promotes two booklets: "The Hidden Unity and Beginnings," which explores subconscious siting of ley points and discoveries related to earth energy and antigravity, and "Earth People, Space People," a booklet prepared to compensate for the loss of Tony Wedd's unpublished manuscript "Earth Men, Space Men," detailing prominent contact claims and the history of the STAR Fellowship.
Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance
This issue of AMSKAYA strongly emphasizes the reality of extraterrestrial contact and the potential for communication through telepathy. The STAR Fellowship appears to be a proactive organization dedicated to investigating UFO phenomena and promoting the idea that humanity is not alone in the universe. The editorial stance is one of open-mindedness towards claims of contact, with a focus on personal experiences and scientific inquiry into phenomena like telepathy and advanced technology. The newsletter promotes its own publications and website, encouraging readers to engage further with the subject matter.
