ABDUCTION EXPERIENCE CLASSIFICATION

By: Richard D. Butler

The following is a brief description of the most commonly reported abduction experience types.

It is intended to provide a standard of classification in abduction research.

[AE-1] Lucid Dream

These are lucid dream experiences generated internally by the subject's subconscious. There is no human/ET interaction at any level. They are usually grandiose in nature and lack a logical progression.

[AE-2] Techno/Telepathic Lucid Dream

These are lucid dream experiences internally generated by external forces. It is ET in origin and accomplished by technologically enhanced psychic intrusion of the subject's subconscious. The subject reports the disassociation or collapse of a normal dream and the insertion of a scenario or message which enhances certain ideals or beliefs. If the subject awakens immediately afterward, they report a circle of glowing whitish-colored energy on the ceiling, approximately 2-3 feet in diameter, with a shaft of the same energy slowly retracting back into the circle. This shaft is approximately 3-6 inches in diameter and 2.5-4 feet long.

[AE-3] Psi/Bio Energy Field Extraction

This experience involves the extraction of a conscious energy field from the subject's body. It should not be confused with naturally occurring OOBE phenomena, as separation is externally induced. The technology employs the use of a white or bluish-white colored extraction beam. Subjects usually describe a feeling of deep penetration of this beam throughout their body, followed by the sensation of an irresistible or attractive force. The extracted field maintains cohesion and is capable of perceiving stimuli at a greatly enhanced level. Perceptions include 360 degree sight and sensory feedback at the molecular and even atomic level. Experiences seem to focus around communications and reinsertion of the bio-field into a humanoid body other than the original. This type of abduction accounts for the severe missing time memory failure in some cases.

Since the subject's brain is not physically present, the memories are not hard-written. There does appear to be a shadow memory effect that can retain the memories of the events in some type of energy memory matrix within the subject's bio-field. Full understanding of this process could lead to breakthroughs in education and learning technologies.

[AE-4] Physical Abduction

This is the physical removal of a subject from their environment to an ET environment. The subject is first tranquilized to reduce possible injury to either side. These abductions follow a very strict military-like protocol. Subjects are transported via a small shuttle, lifting beam or direct transfer. Direct transfer utilizes a hyper-dimensional tunnel. It will appear as a large brilliant white energy gate. The subject steps through the gate and is instantly aboard the craft. The nullification of nuclear repulsive forces in solid objects is also often reported. This allows the subject to physically pass through solid objects. Once onboard, the person is subjected to various physical tests and procedures. The main area of interest is in genetic experiment ation. Reports of sperm and ovum extraction are quite common. After these procedures are performed, subjects are returned to their original location unharmed. A screen memory is then inserted into the their subconscious. This slightly shifts the reality recalled by the abductee but never erases the event entirely. This distinguishes them from [AE-3].

[AE-5] Past Life Recall

These experiences are the least reported and the most interesting in terms of their implications. They appear to represent events in the experience of an ET life form. Subjects relate being in an underground military facility, sometimes on Mars, the Moon and even under the Earth's oceans.

Memories of being onboard a spacecraft and other ET environments are also recalled. What is so interesting is that the subject views this not from an Earth human perspective but from that of an ET. This suggests two very interesting possibilities.
A.) During telepathic communication some memories are subconsciously transferred.
B.) The subject is recalling actual past life memories of their own.

This second possibility opens the door to much speculation. It suggests that part of the abduction phenomena may be a massive and covert reconnaissance operation. It may also explain why the Greys have said they have the right to do what they do. If abductees actually are souls that have been transferred from the ET environment to Earth, then technically they would not be abducting human beings, but rather volunteer ETs.
