ET badguys on the prowl,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Allies of Humanity: An Urgent Message About the Extraterrestrial Presence in the World Today (Paperback)
Marshall Summers is a spiritual teacher who channels material from the "Unseen Ones" and in this case from a committee called "The Allies of Humanity." The committee is made up of members from planets that have succumbed to intervention in the past and had a very long and hard struggle to recover their autonomy. Fans of channeling know that there are thousands of channelers and that many of them offer pretty lean pickings. Not so here. Marshall has helped put out several impressive books, tapes and even a video. To be honest, I picked this one to start with because it was the thinnest, it passes the taste test. The book is roughly divided into two parts, the main message and questions about the main message. The main message is that extraterrestrials are here (not so new) and that they are up to no good, but not in ways that you hear much about in print. The message section is a bit repetitive (it really does need to sink in), The gist of the message is that the visitations we are experiencing now (called the "Intervention") are from a hive-minded entrepreneurial collective which would dearly love some more worker bees (us) but who are far too few to want to engage in what we think of as conventional warfare. Their stock in trade is psychological warfare of the mind manipulation sort carried on patiently over time and directed specifically at political and religious leaders to slowly alter values taught by the churches. This program operates in conjunction with a breeding program that will interject bright new leaders into our society (yes, they are living in our midst right now) and a pacification (acclimatization) program. We are told that personal freedom will be the first fatality if they succeed. "Such is the greater reality into which humanity is emerging--a universe filled with wonders and horrors, a universe of influence, a universe of competition, yet also a universe filled with Grace, much like your own world but infinitely greater. The Heaven that you seek is not here. However, the forces that you must contend with are. This is the greatest threshold that your race will ever face." "They come seeking power, resources, dominion." Well there you have it delivered in low key, almost boring, presentation. The writing is patient, very literate and more or less free of the panic style writing seen elsewhere (like Extra-Terrestrial Friends and Foes by George C. Andrews, which is a good complement to this work). The visitors are not really portrayed as evil, personal freedom is just out of their hive element and is seen as a very undesirable human trait. They would come to treat us the way we would treat the workers in a country like Guatemala and in the end idealists and intellectuals would be treated like they were in Argentina (disappeared). The Q & A section is a bit more lively, personal and brings out a level of wisdom that shows the book in its best light. "There will be many questions that you cannot answer. You will have to live with them. Your education about the Greater Community is only at the very beginning. You must approach it with great sobriety and care. You must counteract your own tendencies to try and make the situation pleasant or reassuring. You must develop an objectivity about life, and you must look beyond your own personal sphere of interests in order to put yourself in a position to respond to the greater forces and events that are shaping your world and your future." One characteristic that the visitors can be depended upon to exhibit is that they will capitalize on our rosy expectations for the future. The mental and technological powers that they have can be used to project holographic illusions as well. Also "the visitors will utilize the fundamental idea of allegiance to a single leader in order to generate allegiance to their cause." The book suggests that the visitors will stage a Second Coming. "He will be one who is born and bred for this purpose by the collectives that are in the world today. He will appear human and will have significant abilities compared to what you can accomplish at this moment. We will seem completely altruistic. He will be able to perform acts that will engender either fear or great reverence. He will be able to project images of angels, demons or whatever his superiors wish to expose you to. He will seem to have spiritual powers. ...Eventually, for those who cannot follow him, he will encourage their alienations or their destruction." We have an expectation that the visitors must be more spiritually advanced than we are and thus we will tend to look up to them for guidance, kind of like asking an executive at Enron for investment advice, a really bad idea. This book some big assumptions, the biggest is that homo sapiens will ever amout to anything but greed based, planet trashing barbarians themselves. It points out that the collectives consider themselves to be saviors that will keep man from destroying this planet. Man has a long way to go spiritually and very little time left to do it in. This is one of those books that really needs to be seen by a wider audience than it is getting now... The ideas are valuable and presented in a respectful tone. The channel who has come forward with the material is seen by respected authorities as sincere and convincing. The content of the message is in linguistic and spiritual keeping with quality channeling standards. Those unfamiliar with channeling may feel at a disadvantage in not having developed a sense of discernment for this genre of writing. Touchstones with which to compare this book are works by Seth, Immanuel as well as A Course in Miracles. A real appreciation can only come with a full read, not just the tidbits seen here.

Spiritual battleground, ETs vs Humankind,
By
This review is from: The Allies of Humanity: Book 1 (Paperback)
There are many theories as to why aliens are visiting our planet, how long they've been coming here, what they want, etc. This book offers one of the best I've ever read, detailing how there are many species coming here that are a part of collectives that only have their own interests in mind, but are slowly and deliberately manipulating humankind into thinking they're here for our benefit. There are essentially a few different groups, beings that treasure our free will and spiritual power as beings, and those who simply don't understand it and want to use us towards their own goals. After reading this book, I only want to learn more about advancing my own spiritual development. If what is in this book is true, then we as a species are truly in a war for our freedom as a species

This review is from: The Allies of Humanity: An Urgent Message About the Extraterrestrial Presence in the World Today (Paperback)
Like some of the other reviewers, I was greatly disturbed by this book - mostly because in my inner core I feel that it is true. It makes entire sense - there are no contradictions between what is said in this book and my inner beliefs. It does not ask us to do anything contrary to our nature or bad for us. Indeed, it harkens us to be even more diligent on our spiritual paths. Actually, what is asked of each of us is relatlively simple - be aware, use discernment, and don't trust strangers and their promises. The difficult part is to get most of humanity to cast aside their illusions and do this. The Allies of Humanity only ask us to actually learn from our mistakes - we routinely say that history repeats itself, yet in the Western world we cannot fathom that we will be the natives that are conquered. I do believe, however, that our own media is preparing us - Independence Day, The Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, Star Trek, They Live, the X-Files: Films and shows that are introducing us to the idea of extraterrestrials, showing that some would like to take what we have, and issuing a rallying cry for all the peoples of the world to unite and stand firm against the invaders, even it it seems like we are against the odds. This has certainly been a cornerstone of the human spirit, especially American spirit, and I only pray that enough people become aware of the truth and use their inner wisdom to distinguish foes from friends.

Spiritual Alarm Call,
By
This review is from: The Allies of Humanity: An Urgent Message About the Extraterrestrial Presence in the World Today (Paperback)
The Allies of Humanity is essentially the call to action for a spiritual revolution. This clearly written book outlines the extra terrestrial intervention. The Intervention is currently underway and threatening human freedom and planetary sovereignty. While this news is alarming, Allies offers hope that humanity can be empowered to maintain our freedom through education and the development of wisdom. Humanity's hope is within ourselves, and Allies encourages us to find our strength inside, and to develop access to our spiritual intelligence. Aside from being the spark for a human freedom movement, this book is also a gateway into the ancient spiritual tradition, The Greater Community Way of Knowledge.

a wake up call,
By eric (Redlands, Ca. United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Allies of Humanity: An Urgent Message About the Extraterrestrial Presence in the World Today (Paperback)
I found this book to be enlightning, yet disturbing, and it presents the clearest case for ET visitation I have read to date, including Whitley Strieber. The one problem I did have with this book however was the somewhat guru-ish tone to it. Overall, however, it is a valuable source of information for anyone who is concerned about what the future holds for humanity and what lies out there. Whether you are willing to accept it or not, we are being visited by beings who are neither benevolent, nor evil, but are here to employ us in their hive-like 'collectives', and are willing to use whatever means are at their disposal to manipulate us into giving up the resources of our planet, as it appears that our planet is a rare biological treasure, a rarity in this area of the universe. Though these beings do not have great numbers and are somewhat physically inferior to us, they are skilled in the manipulations of the mind, and lack our ability for compassion and feeling and do not share our human traits, which have been bred out of them. Humanity is at a disadvantage at this time due to our tribal, warring mentality, and our lack of leadership, which only works in the visitors favor (divide and conquer). As the case is stated in the book, we must take control and responsibiliy for our own destiny and planet, or it will be made for us by beings who do not share our views and feelings and regard humanity as reckless, irresponsible, and inferior. Ignore this book at your own peril. The invasion has begun!

Puts all the pieces together,
By
This review is from: The Allies of Humanity: An Urgent Message About the Extraterrestrial Presence in the World Today (Paperback)
I loved this book, it was very straight forward and easy to understand. After reading this book a lot of what I have been reading on the UFO phenomenom has become very clear, the causation of it all and everything. The book speaks of God as we do; God of the universe, but doesn't mention a devil. I was forced to wonder and take my religious beliefs into context. Still just as confused but I still gave it a 4 star review and bought Steps to Knowledge by Mr. Summers.

This review is from: The Allies of Humanity: An Urgent Message About the Extraterrestrial Presence in the World Today (Paperback)
Wake up!!!
The book "Allies of Humanity" tells us that while we continue to ponder whether we are alone in the universe, speculators from several cultures in the Greater Community are on earth considering how to exploit our planet and it resources--including humanity--for their own purposes. Our ignorance is their greatest advantage over us. An empowering Teaching has been provided to us, facilitated by the work of author Marshall Vian Summers. The Teaching unfolded in his books reveals Knowledge to the reader. In the books "Allies of Humanity Volumes 1 and 2", "Wisdom From the Greater Community Volumes 1 and 2", "Greater Community Spirituality", and "Steps to Knowledge", we are given information that we need to grow into the stature that is required of us as individuals, and as a race. This Teaching is ancient; its truths are universal. When the need arises, as it has in our time, Teachers of Wisdom in the Greater Community adapt the methodology of teaching to the world where it is needed. Knowledge as it is known, and Wisdom as it is practiced by the mature races in the Greater Community are our first best defenses against the persuasion, and the pacification program, of the opportunistic speculators who want our world. You are called to receive this gift that will mature our race. You who want to make a real and lasting contribution to Life, here it is. Here is the flame; light your torch and prepare yourself; there is Work for us to do.

A strong choice for metaphysical studies collections.,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Allies of Humanity: Book 1 (Paperback)
The phenomena of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) has been the subject of governmental and military studies, popular entertainment, and an enduring concern by ordinary people who have experienced extraordinary events. Now in an expanded and updated second edition, "The Allies Of Humanity: Book One" offers UFO and First Contact spiritual authority Marshal Vian Summers' assertion that the increasing appearance of UFOs and other related phenomena such as 'alien abductions' are symptomatic of 'a subtle and unopposed Intervention by extraterrestrial forces' seeking to exploit Earth's resources. All of which is occurring against a backdrop of environmental degradation and resource depletion rendering humanity exceptionally vulnerable to alien exploitation and influence. "The Allies Of Humanity: Book One" is a clarion call and descriptive challenge that will prove of exceptional interest to students of Metaphysical Studies in general, and UFO phenomena in particular.

Very Important Book,
By
This review is from: The Allies of Humanity, Book One (Kindle Edition)
Eleven years after its initial publication, The Allies of Humanity remains the most important book on the subject of extraterrestrial visitation. In fact, it's one of the most important books in the world.
Whatever world issues you are concerned about--freedom, social justice, environmental sustainability, equality, global security--the extraterrestrial intervention is the most important problem facing humanity, and its implications cover all aspects of life. If humanity falls under alien occupation then everything is lost: our history, freedom, art, culture, spirituality, religion, identity... No one else seems to know or present the full implications, the full gravity, of what the extraterrestrial presence on Earth means. And yet the Allies of Humanity Briefings present the truth in a respectful, gentle way, honoring humanity's strength, potential, and greater value even while alerting us to our vulnerability and weakness. |
