Sir,
An explicit explanation. Kudos!
Some personal thoughts to share on your learned assumption:
"Sun illuminates so many planets, yet only in Earth living beings exist."
This may sound unbelievable, even mad, I know. My beloved Shiva's been called "Pithan" (madman), & I relate. My personal psychic, spiritual & meditative experiences leave me feeling neither earthly nor ethereal, but liminal, like an alien observing life through a two-way mirror. Please bear with me as I attempt to explain myself.
Dynamic discoveries challenge Earth's unique habitability. Earth-like planets, evidence of Martian water, & mounting UFO evidence suggest advanced extraterrestrial life, hinting at potential government cover-ups & questioning humanity's cosmic solitude. This phenomenon has fascinated me since childhood.
George Knapp, a prominent investigative journalist & ufologist, has reported on UFOs & paranormal occurrences for over three decades, beginning in the late 1980s. A news anchor & talk radio host, he's known for groundbreaking reports on Area 51 & UFOs, bringing these topics into the mainstream & earning numerous awards.
Knapp's recent Netflix series, "UFO: Investigating the Unknown," compellingly presents UFOs, aligning with my decades of metaphysical experiences. I'll hopefully be able to share my insights soon, including references to deities & vimanas (flying machines) & other awe-inspiring information. Knapp's investigation reveals new evidence & testimony, exploring government cover-ups, advanced technology, & extraterrestrial contact.
The History Channel's "Unidentified: Inside America's UFO Investigation" features ufologists Luis Elizondo & Christopher Mellon in a documentary-style investigation with expert testimony.
Both series argue convincingly for UAPs, but "UFO: Investigating the Unknown" probes their origins, prompting viewers to consider their implications for our understanding of the universe.
George Knapp has been a vocal advocate for US congressional hearings on UFOs for decades. He's witnessed firsthand the government's reluctance to hold such hearings, citing various reasons including pressure from ufologists, the potential for ridicule, & the fear of revealing classified information. He's not optimistic about official disclosure happening anytime soon, he hopes to continue advocating for greater understanding & a more serious approach to the topic.
While Knapp has been involved in efforts to push for such hearings, he highlights the challenges:
- 1960s Hearings: Congress held two formal hearings in the late 1960s, but they were ultimately overshadowed by the Air Force's cancellation of Project Blue Book, leading to a period of government silence on the topic.
- 1990s Attempt: A proposed set of hearings focused on national security aspects of UFOs was nearly a reality, but it was ultimately scrapped due to concerns about the involvement of "UFO diehards."
- Citizen Hearing: Knapp supports the Citizen Hearing, a non-official event featuring former members of Congress listening to testimony from UFO witnesses, as a step towards greater transparency. He criticizes the media's coverage of the event, which he feels is often dismissive & lacking in actual research.
- Government’s Secrecy: Knapp believes the government has a history of studying UFOs but has actively sought to downplay the subject. He encourages journalists to examine declassified documents & to take the topic seriously.
- Whistleblower Support: Knapp has been a supporter of whistleblowers, including David Grusch, who have come forward with information about secret government programs concerning UFOs.
Graham Hancock's Netflix series, "Ancient Apocalypse" explores a theory of a highly advanced, possibly an extraterrestrial civilization, during the last ice age, presenting circumstantial evidence & suggesting potential future cataclysms.
The incredible book, "Chariots of the Gods" by Erich von Däniken gifted to me by my father when I was 12, was made into a documentary in 1970. This was followed by the documentary series, "In Search of Ancient Astronauts” in 1972 & the ongoing "Ancient Aliens" History Channel series since 2009, which continues to explore similar themes presenting evidence & theories about ancient alien contact.
Project Blue Book was the US Air Force's systematic study of UFO sightings from 1952 to 1969. It was a continuation of earlier projects, Project Sign & Project Grudge, & aimed to determine if UFOs posed a threat to national security & to scientifically analyze related data. It investigated a total of 12,618 UFO sightings. Of those, 701 remained unexplained.
Just adding context to those with a similar interest on the subject. As for the connection between an ancient or modern extraterrestrial civilization, time & dimension portals, & our Hindu sages & deities, I shall provide more information over the next few days.
Thank you for reading!
Assume Pongal is for thanking the sun, is it not ignorant to thank the Sun.? Sun is not going to receive our thanks, nor Sun is working for individuals or human race or even planet Earth. Sun illuminates so many planets, yet only in Earth living beings exist.
Rather pongal is about learning from the Sun. How letting go (of energy in this case) leads to creation of knowledge and wealth. How overcoming potential barriers help us create newer things. How cycles (rta) of nature create a dharma (laws) for us to live etc. But I understand in common parlance it is reduced to thanking the Sun.
On BG17.4 Krishna says sattviks worship devas (who inspire knowledge), rajasiks worship yaksha/raksas (who inspire passion) and tamasiks worship preta-bhuta-ganas (who inspire material richness). Here yajante means worship.
On BG17.11, 12,13 he talks about Yajna. IN 17.11 Yajna done without any expectation of result (dont ask for anything) is sattvik, in 17.12 those done for dambha/pride/passion is rajasik, in 17.13 those done without rules, without distributing food, without the mantras, without dedication is tamasic.
