The Deamon in Me :-) by Rachid Lamzah via http://www.flickr.com/photos/lamzah/4367595067/

Pacts of the Faustian Kind

In my book, Final Events, I told the strange story of a U.S. Government think-tank-style group nicknamed the Collins Elite. Their belief is that the UFO phenomenon has – quite literally – demonic origins, and that the extraterrestrial angle is merely an ingenious, deceptive ruse employed by Satan. The goal: to further allow his minions to get their claws into us all, and lead us down a distinctly dark pathway before Judgment Day and the final-countdown begins. As someone who holds no particular views on the nature of religion or life-after-death, I have no real opinion on the validity of the beliefs of the Collins Elite, aside from the fact that I find it fascinating that such a think-tank group actually exists. But what interests me most of all, is that a certain theme runs through much of this story that can also be found elsewhere at an official level, and it’s one I find somewhat disturbing…

I was put on the trail of the Collins Elite by a man named Ray Boeche. As well as being an Anglican priest, Ray is a former State-Director (for Nebraska) with the Mutual UFO Network: MUFON. In a truly fascinating interview with Ray in 2007, he told me how he had been clandestinely approached, in 1991, by two Department of Defense (DoD) physicists working on a classified program to try and contact what were described to Ray as “Non-Human Entities, or “NHE’s.”

In Ufological terms, we would call these entities the diminutive, black-eyed “Grays.” For the people on the DoD project, they may very well have begun with that view too, but ultimately they came around to the notion that this was merely a terrible ruse. Like the Collins Elite, Ray’s ufological Deep-Throat-like sources finally accepted that the entities at issue were demonic. But, there was an interesting – and disturbing – further aspect to this revelation: there were those on the project that believed engaging the NHE’s in some form of “Faustian pact,” as a means to understand and harness their extraordinary and potentially-lethal powers, could actually aid in the development of occult-based weapons of war, such as the ability to provoke psychic-assassinations.

Now, whether the entities really were demonic, to this day I truthfully don’t know. But, I do know that history is absolutely littered with examples where people have dabbled in the realm of the occult as part of a concerted effort to contact entities from beyond the veil, only for things to come crashing down around them. Ill-health (both mental and physical), extraordinary long runs of bad luck, disaster and misfortune, utter madness, and even death are all signs of what many term “psychic-backlash.”  And, it seems from what Ray Boeche was told, this was precisely what the DoD project was experiencing – which is why they had major concerns about continuing with such research.

But, since the publication of Final Events, I have uncovered further, disturbing data suggesting these Faustian pacts are still going on – and have been for a long time. One such story came from a man formerly attached to a U.S. military group known as the Night Stalkers, who maintained that the real purpose behind the cattle-mutilation phenomenon was to appease occult-based entities, with whom elements of the official world were desperately trying to engage and work. In essence, his story is that the removal of vital-organs, and particularly so the blood, from mutilated cattle is not the work of aliens at all – as many within Ufology believe is the case. Rather, my source maintained, the culprit is the military itself. The reason, I am told, is so that the the blood and organs may be utilized in ancient, sacrificial appeasement rites to incredibly old deities of a type that can offer something in return: supernatural powers of a type that, if understood and harnessed, may even be weaponized.

This, clearly, is very similar to the central theme of the story provided to Ray Boeche in 1991: namely, doing deals with the denizens of a very dark realm, as a means to achieve some near-unique military advantage over your potential-foes. And, I see another example of this, too.

I have just finished reading a fascinating, brand new book from Rosemary Ellen Guiley and Philip Imbrogno: The Vengeful Djinn. The book is an excellent study of the entire Djinn controversy, from a historical, supernatural and cultural perspective. And, the book makes it very clear that Djinns are most definitely not entities with which one should be crossing paths. But, aside from being a tremendous study of the Djinn phenomenon, there was one part of the book that really stood out for me beyond all others.

The section of The Vengeful Djinn in question focuses on a trip that Imbrogno made to Saudi Arabia in 1995. During the course of the visit, Imbrogno learned of secret, long-term attempts by a “special unit” of the U.S. military to “capture” a Djinn. The purpose of the program, Imbrogno was told by a cousin of Prince Khalid bin Fahd, was to secure for the U.S. Government “a technological device that allowed djinn to pass through solid walls and through dimensional windows.”

To what extent such an operation had been successful, the prince’s cousin did not know. If such an extraordinary goal had been achieved, however, Imbrogno was advised it would undoubtedly be classified at a very high level. Similarly, while visiting Oman, Imbrogno heard a story of the governments of Oman and the United States both knowing about Djinn, and even ”trying to deal with them.”

Clearly, we see something here that fits right in with the account of Ray Boeche, and with the cattle-mutilation affair: namely, doing a deal with paranormal entities where there is a perceived gain to be made from a military perspective.

I admit that I hold no firm beliefs on the specific nature of other realms of existence; only that I am sure they most assuredly do exist, and they appear to be the domains of entities who do not have our best interests at heart. And, as a result, I see absolutely no good at all coming out of a situation where military and government forces have the arrogance to believe they can actually deal with, take on, and exploit these same entities – and, ultimately, achieve something that, from officialdom’s perspective, is considered worthwhile: the development and deployment of fantastic, supernatural weaponry.

There is only ever one, inevitable, positive outcome of a Faustian pact with supernatural life-forms. The problem, however, is that the outcome is only ever positive for them, never for us.

    Fascinating article, Nick!

    As a practising occultist I’d suggest that non-human entities come in two types: those that require us to develop ourselves in order to come into relationship with them; or those that simply require some kind of sacrifice and promise to give us something material in return. Demons fall into the latter category.

    But it’s not the demon alone that causes the inevitable negative outcome. In the cases cited, the government agencies involved had specific stuff they wanted to lay their hands on. Were they practising meditation and compassion so they could tune into angelic or god-like beings? No, they were after technological hardware that they could use for killing people. They wanted to do a bargain to get more and better weapons; they weren’t interested in developing beyond their paranoid militaristic mindset. Who’s the ‘demon’?

    UFOs or ‘aliens’ certainly are demonic – if we regard them as holding the keys to our salvation with their superior technology, because this view impels us in the direction of needing material stuff from them, to make ourselves ‘whole’, rather than changing and developing ourselves to make humanity the best it can be. Of course, this is idealistic, but which of these paths do we suppose is *really* more likely to make the earth a better place?

    Non-human intelligences are spiritual beings, which means they are non-material. They have no physical basis. They do not ‘exist’. But, as Nick’s article suggests, they don’t need a physical form. It’s the way that human beings think, feel and behave that lends non-human intelligences their ‘existence’. If you wanted to, you could interpret them simply as reflections of our own psychological processes: i.e. the military ends up doing deals with devils not because there are ‘real’ devils out there somewhere for it to do deals with, but because that’s the way its collective mind works. My own experience suggests, though, that this is maybe too cosy and comforting a view. There may not be ‘real’ demons ‘out there’, but I don’t think it’s right to assume they must be completely ‘in the mind’ either!

    The ‘Djinn’ book is next on my book pile and I’m really looking forward to it…

    Fascinating stuff.

    It’s been pretty clear to me for a while that most (if not all) of the UFO phenomena doesn’t involve extraterrestrials*.

    *Although Djinn from another planet would be a neat solution.

    I found the Djinn book to be a bit credulous and culturally biased, but informative for sure. That said, Duncan’s comments above should be read again- they are wise. Concerning Phil’s information from the Prince, I would take that with a grain of salt. The plausible deniability behind any operation in a foreign country will take that countries culture well in to account- it may well have been a geological survey for oil/minerals, possibly to gain advantage over local or other international competition, using very refined technology. Covertly assessing the viability of future projects, or hiding from certain known ones, or known cultural superstitions, would be a leg up indeed. Or perhaps it covered a covert military operation- we don’t know. Djinn hunting? Not impossible, but not very likely, unless by a private, though quite connected, concern…
    A very good article, Nick. You are a wolf in a field of lambs. There is much to follow up on here. Cheers.

    I am in the middle of Final Events. It is one of the most interesting non-fiction books I’ve read; it easily ranks up there with the best writing of John Keel.

    Thank you for recommending ‘The Vengeful Djinn.’ I hesitated buying it because some of the authors’ past books seemed a little too “new age” for me.

  • NightStalkerTruth

    I am assigned to the 160th SOAR at Hunter Army Airfield, GA. Whoever you spoke to who gave you that “intel” is utterly insane and most likely kicked out of the Army for reasons surrounding those delusions. Our mission is to support the special operations forces and nothing else. Name your source and I’ll show you someone who I’m sure has a ERB full of negative administrative actions against them. And no, this isn’t disinformation…these are the words of a completely sane, rational sergeant assigned to a unit you have preposterous claims against.

    NightStalkerTruth:

    Thanks for the comment. And I absolutely do accept your comments as truth. However, I think we are talking at cross-purposes.

    If you go back and read what I wrote, he said that yes, he had a Nightstalkers background, and he said that, yes, he had heard there was military involvement in the Mutes.

    But, he did not say it was the Nightstalkers doing this. Indeed, he actually made no such claim at all, and more importantly, I did not state in the article that he had said it had anything to do with the Nightstalkers.

    I merely mentioned his Nightstalkers background, so that people reading the article would have a reference point to explain who he was, and as a description of his history as a person.

    But, so as there can be no point of error: he essentially said two things (a) he had a Nightstalkers background, and (b) as a specific result of his time spent in the military he had heard of military involvement in the mutes – which are, of course, two very, very different, unconnected things.

    I do believe that a careful reading of my words makes it very clear that (a) he was talking about his background, (b) that he was talking about military links to the mutes, and (c) the article makes no connection between the Nightstalkers and the people doing the mutes. Only that the story comes from a former member of the Nightstalkers.

    What I do know for certain is that the person elected to speak out after reading the following article:

    http://www.ufomagazine.co.uk/ufoforum/printer_friendly_posts.asp?TID=1589

    I know this, because he had scribbled down the link to the article on a sheet of paper and gave it to me. He was a member of the audience at a conference I spoke at, called the Truth Event, a couple of hours outside Seattle on Feb 26 of this year. Named Tom, he asked a few questions during the Q&A session at the conference, and brought up the issue of what he had heard about the mutes.

    There’s absolutely no doubt they exist, as both me and Anglican priest Ray Boeche have spoken with people with the group, or with people allied to them in some capacity.

    I think we’re getting closer to the “truth” here. Just finished reading “The Eighth Tower” by John Keel, and rereading “Passport to Magonia” by Jacques Vallee. I urge everyone to read the books and articles by these authors. They are available to read for free at “Scribd” on line. According to their perspective, there’s really nothing new going on with these entities, except the technological trappings and appearances are readjusted to the eras in which they manifest themselves. Both authors works are from a secular, objective viewpoint, no religious biases and are well documented. According to them, livestock mutilations have been going on for a very, very long time, way before America was discovered. I also got finished reading a newer book called “Mirage Men”, which deals with all the disinformation and noise within and between the UFO culture and the U.S. government. There’s so much disinformation and confusion out there, it’s impossible to know what’s what and who’s telling the truth; and apparently that’s the way our government likes it to be.
