Chapter Three: The Dream

The brain is the central processing unit for our entire experience as humans. The brain regulates our growth, stores our memory, and translates a chaotic array of sensory images into a coherent perception of reality. As amazing as the brain is, could it be possible that our brain may also limit our perceptions of reality as well?

Within the contact experience, it is obvious that we do not have all the answers. Contactees are bombarded with images and experiences that the most advanced of our sciences cannot even begin to understand. But one thing is clear; these contact experiences are happening. We need a tool that will help us begin to make sense of this confusing panoply of stimuli. Could it be that the tool we seek is locked within each person—the human brain?

Researchers have long known that brain conditions affect reality perception. If this is truly the case, then it would stand to reason that if our brains were trained to interact differently with consciousness and reality, we might finally be able to discover some concrete truths about ET contact. As long as we continue to view reality through our current use of brain power, these answers may elude us forever.

Our conversations with Sasha have allowed us to conclude that the ET contact phenomenon is actually serving to stimulate a metamorphosis of consciousness within humans. It has become clear that as our brains develop, so does our ability to perceive new levels of reality. Until now it is as if we have been underwater. We have been trying to see above the surface of the water from under the water itself. A tremendous amount of distortion has colored our perceptions of what exists above the surface. However, if we can learn to adjust our perceptual abilities enough to stick our heads out of the water, a whole new reality will be viewed. Our ET contacts are catalyzing us toward these discoveries. The more confused we become about ET contact, the more ET contact will appear in our reality. It is forcing us to elasticize our perceptions.

If this is in fact true, then we are in a transitional period. In such a period it would be natural to expect confusion until we adjust to our new perceptual abilities. As you will read in this chapter, Sasha discusses the process of awakening from our old "dream" of reality into a new level of awareness. These ideas will be addressed even further in following chapters.

Sasha: We would like to continue with the story about Magellan. If you remember, in Chapter One we told you about Magellan's experience on a remote island and how the natives could not see his great sailing ship on the horizon. These natives could, however, see the rowboats that he and his men came to shore in because those rowboats were similar to their own canoes. They were not able to see the large ship because their reality construct was such that they could not perceive something so alien to them.

That interpretation is true. However, we're going to give you another point of view that does not discount the previous point of view but simply adds to it. We've talked somewhat about the evolution of the human species. One of the things that humans are finding the most challenging right now (which of course is a product of your evolutionary stage), is the compartmentalization of your consciousness. This means that your waking consciousness, your unconscious, and your dream world are all separated by certain boundaries. Those boundaries, at least for now in the reality framework you're living in, have helped you make sense of the world in which you live. These boundaries have helped you to process energy and new ideas at a rate that is safe for you. This rate of processing correlates to your brain development.

Each of these states of consciousness (whether it is the dream state or the waking state) is a product of brain-wave frequency. You could also call it vibrational frequency, for it is basically the same thing. Humans, for their own purposes, have limited themselves to certain brain-wave frequencies for their primary expressions. This will be dealt with more in later chapters, but for now we will categorize them once again. The beta state is the brain-wave that is dominant when you are awake. The alpha state is the brain-wave state that you fall into when you are daydreaming, meditating, fantasizing, and sometimes even watching TV. The delta state is the sleep state. The theta state is the doorway or the bridge between alpha and delta. When brain waves shift (for instance, from beta to alpha), the brain literally begins emitting a whole new frequency. This frequency determines the type of reality that the human will experience. Because of the differences in these frequencies and the way the brain shifts between them, boundaries can be maintained around the compartments of your consciousness.

From our point of view, humans generate the most brain-wave activity in the theta state of consciousness—therefore, theta is most dominant. From the human point of view, you are only awake and functioning and connected with your ego in the beta state, so to you beta is the dominant state. However, the beta reality represents a very small fraction of your brain's total capacity to generate and perceive other realities.

Therefore, because the illusion exists for humans that the beta/waking state is the most dominant, you will assume that all of your significant or valid interactions with other beings (physical or nonphysical) must occur during the beta/waking state. From our point of view this is really an absurd belief, because the beta-generated reality represents only a very small percentage of your entire capacity.

Humans have put much time and energy into the study of the UFO phenomenon, and they have attempted to come up with some type of logical understanding about how and why contact occurs. But in your theories you have validated only the
beta/waking reality, and thus have come up far short of any serious understanding of ET contact. This is because most of your contact does not occur in that very limited beta brain-wave frequency.

We as Pleiadians do not operate in such a refined and limited frequency as beta. We do not have the rigid divisions between levels of consciousness that you have. If we were to communicate with humans on the beta frequency, it would require a
tremendous alteration to our energy, consciousness, and reality construct. We cannot hold the energy necessary to communicate on that rigid beta frequency. For this reason, the greater portion of extraterrestrial communication has occurred
on other levels of consciousness—the alpha, the theta and also the delta. Overall, the majority of our contacts occur within the theta frequency because it is a common ground that we both can reach.

This brings us back to one of the most common questions asked of us by humans: "Well, Sasha, if I don't remember it, how do I know I have had a contact?" or "If I don't remember contact, how can I accept it as valid?" You have every right to choose not to validate unremembered contact; however, that choice and the adherence to that choice will severely handicap your ability to maintain relations with any type of extraterrestrial consciousness.

Let us describe for a moment some more qualities of the theta state. Theta is what many people have called the hypnogogic state, the state between sleeping and waking, the state that for most people cannot be controlled. It is a state that you pass through on your way to sleep, but you do not necessarily utilize it for anything but the vehicle to get you from waking to sleeping. In the last 20 years there has been a lot more research on the theta state, and many more people have been willing (whether through meditation or through the use of technological devices) to experiment with their theta states. These people have found tremendous benefits and significant changes in their levels of consciousness. This is because they've begun dissolving the wall, so to speak, between all the levels of consciousness. By consciously engaging in the theta level from a conscious, beta-oriented decision, they've begun to integrate the levels of consciousness and the boundaries begin to disintegrate. (We will speak even more about contact and the brain in later chapters.)

The people on your planet who are more likely to be receptive to benevolent, face to face extraterrestrial contact are those individuals who are adept at functioning on the theta level. These people will be able to filter the essence of that contact into
their waking selves (their beta level), because the walls between levels will begin to dissolve. This will result in actual remembered contacts and the realization that these contacts have been going on all along.

When a planet is getting ready for extraterrestrial contact and contact with new levels of reality, the brains of the species on the planet begin evolving rapidly. This is happening right now on Earth. As the brains begin evolving to another level, a new subspecies begins to emerge through a kind of subtle mutation. When this begins to happen, the brain-wave capacity of the human changes, and therefore their ability to perceive other levels of reality begins changing. It is then that they realize the extraterrestrials are not going to suddenly appear to humans; rather, humans will begin to perceive the ET contact which has gone on all along.

We are observing that on your planet now a significant number of people are experiencing this rapid brain evolution. This results in an increased ability for humans to consciously control their brain-wave states. This is being shown in your biofeedback research. These new abilities are beginning to open new doorways in multidimensional perception—which in turn is really putting a new light on the extraterrestrial phenomenon. Contact is possible on the beta level, but as we've said previously, it's very difficult from the point of view of the extraterrestrials because it means entering an extremely refined frequency. You will find that the lesser-evolved extraterrestrial species (those who are more closely matched to your own evolutionary time line) will have less difficulty entering the beta reality. These ETs will be able to maintain themselves longer in your beta frequency.

However, the more evolved extraterrestrial entities (those who have had more time for evolution), will find it difficult to interact on your beta level. Therefore if it becomes essential to do so, they may instead temporarily disguise themselves in a subtly strange way. For the human, the subtle strangeness of the event will cause a relaxing of the beta frequencies. The human's brain-waves will begin changing subtly so that the communication can occur without those rigid constraints that exist in beta.

For instance, an extraterrestrial may enter the reality of the human in the guise of a human astronaut, a mystic, or an eccentric. The unconscious of the human will perceive the ET energy. The conscious mind will only perceive the strangeness of the event, but it will be enough to trigger the person into a more receptive state (such as alpha). That in turn will allow the communication to be much more effective.

Can you accomplish this artificially by using a device or a synthetic person to enter that beta realm?

Synthetic people are used sometimes for contacts and that is a logical reason why. Again, it depends on the specific extraterrestrial society that is involved. Synthetic people have been used, though even in our technological age they are not perfected and are not agile enough for our purposes.

What about holograms?

Holograms are wonderful to convey information, but at this point the hologram does not carry the energy essence of the sender. Because of this, to the human perceiver it's less real. Humans sometimes do not even perceive projected holograms because of the absence of lifeforce. So holograms are not reliable, either. The main difficulty we have in making open contact with you is the differences in the frequencies of our reality and yours as well as the differences in frequency between our brain-wave states and yours. Many people have thought that we're not here because we judge you as unworthy, or because you're not ready, or a myriad of other reasons. Some of those may be accurate reasons for certain extraterrestrial species, but not us. The best answer as to why contact is not open and ongoing right now is that our realities can't connect yet. The brain-wave functioning between us is so different at this point that if we could simply perceive each other clearly, it would be a tremendous accomplishment.

This is why so many of the extraterrestrials seem so interested in your spiritual development. It's not that we're on some galactic evangelical crusade for new-age thinking! It is simply that the less rigid you become in your belief systems, the more fluid you are in the different levels of your consciousness. Once that happens, you will open up more and then be able to perceive us. That is a tremendous motivation for us. We don't want to spread the "truth" of the universe, so to speak, but simply help you open a crack in the door so that you can perceive a greater reality and then make your own decisions.

Why not use a lesser-evolved species to contact us for you?

Your question implies that we're desperate to have communication and that we do not perceive that there is a flow. There is an evolutionary flow here that we respect. For us to use a lesser-evolved species and force something that's not there naturally, in an evolutionary sense, is to say that we don't respect your own timing.

Our world is not as easily accessible from the outside as we might think it is. It is like we are dreaming and in a way you're trying to wake us up from a bad dream. But in order to wake us up, you are not willing to enter the dream with us.

Exactly. Very good analogy. We have not spoken of this before, but some of us have entered your bad dreams, so to speak. In our past, these ETs were not able to find their way out. They became confused. This is not a very common occurrence. There are stories about it in our history.

We do not want to enter your dream. However, we can play the role of your mother shaking you and saying, "It's time to get up, it's time to get up!" Ultimately you are the one who says, "Five more minutes, please." So you've set your species clock on snooze, and that's all right. That's what you need for now.

So do all species have their own dream? This means that contact between one group of evolved extraterrestrials and another is not as easy as we might think it is?

That is accurate. Any time you enter physical reality, you're entering a dream, an illusion. So the most densely physical societies are going to have the most densely physical dreams. And they're not necessarily even going to be aware that it is a dream. So entering someone else's dream requires a tremendous amount of focus. It also requires a tremendous amount of self-identity to be able to pull yourself out of the dream if you get in too far.

There are many stories in your culture about extraterrestrial contact with the benevolent space brothers flying to your planet, landing and shaking hands. There are many other levels that must be dealt with. These other aspects have to do with the differences in reality framework. It's not as simple as it may seem.

So each civilization has its own dream. If the dreams are similar enough then would contact be easy and supportive?

That is it. If the dreams are similar enough to each other, then the contact is very easy. But if the dreams vary in intensity, it's much more challenging. Instead of trying to muster the energy and the will to enter your dream, it's much easier for us to help you learn that you're sleeping and dreaming and then give you the choice to wake up if you like. That helps you maintain your own free will. It is not our duty to impose on you that you must awaken; instead, we want to give you an opportunity to awaken if you desire.

Ultimately, we cannot ever communicate to you that you are in a dream. You have all had sleeping dreams where in the dream you've said, "Oh, I'm dreaming. This is all part of the dream," but instead of waking up you have simply gone on with the
dream. We cannot communicate to you from outside of the dream. We can only communicate to you from inside the dream. This is one of the reasons why channels are so helpful in relaying messages from us. Even though during channeling we are seemingly communicating to you from inside the dream, we can also be likened to a periscope. We are underwater with you, but we also still retain our cosmic sight. We don't have to enter the dream through channeling in order to communicate with you.

Is this why there's a necessary distortion in channeling—because there's a distortion in this reality?

There is a distortion in this reality. Simply put, if you try to shoot a fish with a bow and arrow, the water creates a distortion. Unless you know how to compensate, you're most likely going to miss the fish. We are looking at you through a distortion. Unless we know exactly how to compensate, what you receive will always be distorted according to your own perceptions of reality. Right now the distortion is becoming less and less, but it's still there and we do the best we can.

So you do think there is progress being made?

Absolutely so, yes. The level of distortion is decreasing rapidly. In studying the human brain-wave capabilities, we're seeing marked changes in your abilities to consciously hold and maintain both alpha and theta state. Beta is not as dominant as it used to be. So the levels are starting to blend, which means the walls are starting to come down. This in and of itself creates a domino effect. This is one of the key dominos that will shift everything on your planet.

Is this why other Earth cultures who might not be so focused in beta seem to have more ET contact?

Yes. You will notice that indigenous species (such as your Aborigine and Native American) have many, many contacts. These contacts are not talked about or written about as being strange, because it is something that has happened to them for generations. Earth's indigenous races have fewer barriers between the different levels of consciousness. Alpha and theta are not as alien to them as they are to Western society, so you're going to find more contact going on there. However, you may not ever hear about it.

Contact between indigenous tribes and Western culture has had a severe and often overwhelming impact on them. So what kind of effect has ET contact had with the same people?

Do you know why Western civilization has had an overwhelming effect on the indigenous people? Because Western society and the indigenous people are living a different dream. Extraterrestrials visiting the indigenous peoples are less alien to them than your own Western society is.

Technology has often been thought to be the symbol of intelligence, but it is not. True harmonious technology is the result of understanding universal laws and feeling that truth within your being. The true extension of that knowledge can stimulate the creation of harmonious technology. Western civilization has forced echnology—not from an understanding of universal law but to test universal law and prove universal theory. The indigenous people (which includes cetaceans) have a sensing, a knowingness, a trust of the universal laws. And from that point of balance they have the choice to extend that into technology or not. Both choices are equal. The indigenous peoples have chosen instead to balance the technological imbalance on Earth by maintaining nontechnological societies.

Please do not misunderstand that we think you should become like the indigenous peoples. You will naturally flow in the direction you need to. However, at this point one of the most significant things that can be done to aid the evolution of your
entire species is any type of brain-evolving activity that will allow you to begin perceiving multidimensional reality.

Let's say I am an ET and I want to communicate into someone else's dream. What could I do? Ah ha! I could leave drawings in their dream! That's just what crop circles are, aren't they?

That is one reason for them, yes! The crop circles have symbolism on many levels for you, and that is one level, yes. We are not able to tell you exactly what the crop circles are saying because you are in your dream and we are in ours. It would not
make sense yet. All we can say is that you're pointed in the right direction, but any words that you give to it right now cannot be the exact message because you're still in the dream. For now we will say that the crop circles are a calling card or a signpost that can lead you out of the dream.
