5.0 out of 5 stars This is an amazing book about visitors from other worlds, November 13, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Contacts With The Gods From Space (Paperback)

I was fascinated by this book. I have always been interested in the concept of advanced intelligences living on the other planets and visiting mankind. However, this book gives evidence which is very convincing. It also explains that there is a huge Cosmic plan of which we are part that really makes sense. I think anyone who thinks about things would be interested in reading this book: it really is unusual but very believable.

3.0 out of 5 stars An introduction to the Aetherius Society, May 1, 2010

This review is from: Contacts With The Gods From Space (Paperback)

I heard about the Aetherius Society already as a teenager. They are mentioned in one of Patrick Moore's entertaining books about sects, cults and doomsday prophets. The group was founded long ago by George King, often described as a "taxi driver who met aliens".

"Contacts with the gods from space" is a book by an actual member of the society, Richard Lawrence. To give the book more clout, George King is mentioned as the main author at the cover, but the foreword reveals that the book was written by Lawrence alone. It gives a general overview of the worldview, teachings and activities of this New Religious Movement.

Many of the ideas of the Aetherius Society are obviously derived from Theosophy. Others are more original. King claimed to be in telepathic contact with a wide variety of Cosmic Masters, including Master Aetherius, Master Jesus and a being called Mars Sector 6.

The central belief of the society is that humanity's spiritual development is overseen by a group of highly advanced aliens from other planets. Jesus himself was an alien, originally from Venus. To us, the other planets in the solar system look dead, but actually they are inhabited, but since the aliens exist on a different vibration frequency, we can't see them. Humanity originally lived on a planet called Meldek, situated in between Mars and Jupiter. Unfortunately, humans destroyed Meldek through the misuse of nuclear power, and the souls of humanity were transferred through reincarnation to Earth, where they founded the lost civilizations of Lemuria and Atlantis (who also destroyed themselves by nuclear bombs). Indeed, a large part of King's message was to warn humanity against the dangers of nuclear weapons and nuclear power. The society claims that King received forewarnings of nuclear accidents from the aliens, including a serious accident at Sellafield, long covered up by British authorities.

Other familiar themes include the idea that UFOs are mentioned in the Bible. The Merkabah seen by Ezekiel was a UFO, as was the fiery chariot that took Elijah to heaven. The vimanas of the Hindu scriptures are also mentioned in this context. King claims to have visited the mother ships and satellites of the aliens currently engaging with humanity, and he is apparently also the Voice of the Interplanetary Parliament. The aliens were somehow involved in the building of the Egyptian pyramids, the creation of the Aztec and Maya cultures, and so on. (Graham Hancock's "Fingerprints of the gods" is mentioned in the reference section.) The Aetherius Society also believes that Earth is a living being, which they call the Logos or Mother Earth. Worship of the Earth is an important part of society ritual.

When the book was published, the Aetherius Society speculated that 1999 might the date of the apocalypse, when a new Master shall reveal himself openly to humankind. (Presumably, this Master is the Maitreya Buddha or some similar being.) The prophecies of Nostradamus and Mother Shipton are referenced. When the Master appears, all people who arent't sufficiently spiritually evolved, will be transferred to "the planet X", a planet beyond Pluto to continue their spiritual evolution, but under less hospitable circumstances. Wisely, Lawrence writes that the date 1999 might be postponed by the Masters to give humanity more time to evolve. (Nothing happened in 1999, as we all know, nor will anything happen in 2012, except perhaps the re-election of Barak Obama!)

A more distinctive idea of this group, is its claim to operate a kind of batteries charged with cosmic energy. During "Operation Prayer Power", the energies of these batteries are discharged in order to bring peace and healing to a selected area. Thus, the Aetherius Society claims to have stopped a war between Greece and Turkey in 1974. Apparently, both the Greek military junta and the coup plotters at Cyprus were overthrown due to this cosmic energy. During another "operation", the society stopped two earthquakes in Turkey from causing fatalities. The cosmic energy is also said to have stopped a number of tornadoes, hurricanes and ecological disasters. The Prayer Batteries are connected to an invisible alien craft known as Satellite 3, which is currently in orbit around our planet. Or so George King says. King also claims to have personally charged a number of mountains, mostly in Britain, with spiritual energies, and these are frequently visited by pilgrims from the Aetherius Society. There is a certain "scientism" in the message of this society, "scientism" in the sense of borrowing the terminology of science while rejecting its method. Mechanical devices, belief in physical space ships and the claim that quantum physics have or will confirm Eastern religious teachings are examples of this.

Two interesting facts about King emerge from this book. First, he was definitely not a weird taxi driver, as implied by the sceptics, although Lawrence admits that King did indeed work as a taxi driver for a period. King was interested in Eastern religion and meditation already before founding the Aetherius Society. The author further implies that King's noble title (he was called Sir George King by followers) was bestowed upon him, not by the British crown, but rather by the Imperial House of Byzantium in exile. A descendant of the last Byzantine emperor knighted George King in 1980.

"Contacts with the gods from space" isn't a particularly well written book. It gives a somewhat confusing impression, and could have needed better editing. Nor does it contain much information about King's visits to other planets. Still, it does give an overview of the curious ideas and actions of the Aetherius Society.

This review is from: Contacts With The Gods From Space (Paperback)

As with any book that goes out on a limb like Contacts with the Gods From Space, just the title can be off-putting, you need to take a healthy dose of skepticism with the reading. I could have done without the pictures of George King, which along with the pictures of his worshipers was almost too much for me, but I preservered. The whole bit about the prayer batteries hooked up to the ship in orbit above us was interesting, but hard to prove their effectiveness. A catastrophe is a catastrophe, and you just can't go around claiming that it could have been a lot worse.

I found George King to be a little hard to swallow as a person. Anyone who spends 8 hours a day doing yoga seems to me to be a little unbalanced (I know, bad choice of words considering yoga is about balance). And then calls himself Sir, I mean even if you are knighted, it's one of the pretentious things we Americans can't handle, all this should be taken out of the book. The information is logical, and goes along with most other books I have read on the UFO subject and channelers, so why include these sorts of tidbits about the author? He takes away from the credibility of the book which is very good.

I can't tell you how many books I've read that talk about the 'new earth', and how only the people who vibrate high enough get to stay on her to enjoy what Jesus called the thousand years of peace. King's book also talks about the new earth and even goes so far as to name the new planet the lower vibrating people will be going to which is Planet X. Now that is truly interesting. If this is the same planet that's been here before, portrayed in L.Ron Hubbard's Battlefield Earth and made into a movie staring John Travolta, then it is definitely not where you want to end up.

What really caught my attention in this book was the chapter called The True History of Mankind. In this chapter, King explains how there was once a planet called Maldeck(mal is now used to mean something bad, wrongful or ill) that had its orbit between Jupiter and Mars. It was green and lovely and about the size of Earth(in astronomy I learned that it would have been a rocky planet like ours because it was on the other side of ice line).

This planet had humans like us on it who achieved enough technology to have most of their needs taken care of by robots, and so they had lots of leisure time which made them lackadaisical. Well, all but their scientists who wanted to become lords of the universe, so they made up hydrogen bombs that were a 1000 times more powerful than ours. They set off their bombs, which if you know how such things work, and I don't really, it set off a chain of events that blew apart their entire planet.

Funny, that our own scientists were afraid of the same thing happening when they set off their own hydrogen bomb(but did it anyway, which makes me question the intelligence of our own race).

So now all these souls, plants, animals and people alike, are set loose into the upper dimensions (or lower probably for doing such a horrible thing) and they have no place to reincarnate to balance out their karma. Gia, our own mother Earth, consented to put her own evolution to take on all these souls while the rest of the planets in our solar system raised themselves up to the next level. This is why it would appear that we're the only planet that contains life. So, anyway, as the story goes, Adamic man, the first creation here on Earth,(check out Genesis for these men made in God's image) helped these new mutated (from radiation) men along and then left us to our own devices (were these the gods? Osiris, Thoth, Isis and so on?). Well the Lumerians blew up their world, followed by the Atlanteans, now we're on the verge of blowing ourselves off the planet again.

A fantastic story and if we weren't at the stage where we have enough nukes to blow ourselves back to the stone age again, it might seem a bit far-fetched. I'd have to say that King has truly made contact with higher beings and if you can ignore the pictures and the whole cult-like club they've got going, I'd say this is quite an important book. Even if you don't believe that King has made contact with other beings in the universe, this book is very spiritual and if the advice is followed, we'd have a much better world. So I say judge the content, not the cover. This is one of the best books on the UFO subject that I've ever come across.
