    A BRIEF ACCOUNT OF THE TRUE NATURE OF THE "UFO ENTITIES"
        --------------------------------------------------------

           by
                          Gordon Creighton

  This article, which appeared originally in FSR 29/1 (October 1983)
 is reprinted now at the request of a number of readers, and to remind all
 our readers of what lies ahead for Mankind.  Ever since its publication,
 the article has been treated throughout the world with total silence, and
 and there is a general agreement among all Ufologists on both sides of the
 Atlantic never to give it a mention.

  FSR Consultant Dr Richard F. Haines expected me to print his
 comphrehensive REVIEW OF EXPLANATORY HYPOTHESES FOR UNIDENTIFIED AERIAL
 PHENOMENA, and I promptly did so.  (FSR 32/2 - 1987.)  But it might be
 noted that he did not deem it necessary to include the slightest reference
 to my work in his survey, even as a minimal gesture of courtesy.

 Four of the leading experts in Ufology in the world have written
 me privately to say that they think I am on the right track.  Only one
 of them - Ann Druffel - has had the guts to say so publicly.  EDITOR

 One of the more curious features of the followers of the various
 religions is that, being so dogmatically certain that in their own
 particular little faith they already possess the whole Truth about all
 things in Heaven and Earth, it almost never occurs to any of them to look
 elsewhere and find out what the followers of other religions may know or
 may have discovered.

 This is certainly a pity, for study of all the great world-religions
 - and notably Islam - would yield valuable clues as to the true nature
 of the so-called "UFO Phenomenon" and would rapidly eliminate much of
 the fatuous "Space-Age Mythology" that has been spawned in such profusion
 over the last three decades.

 Islam knows, in fact, of the existence of THREE entirely separate
 and distinct species of intelligent beings in the Universe, and indeed
 can furnish suprisingly precise details regarding their natures and roles
 and activities.

          ANGELS, MEN, AND JINNS

 The first category is of course that of the ANGELS or Messengers
 (Greek: ANGELOS; Hebrew: MALACH; Arabic: MALAK).  These are high beings
 created of LIGHT.

 The third category are MEN, with bodies created according to the
 QUR'AN, of CLAY, or, in other words, this being poetic language, they
 have physical bodies assembled from the mineral and chemical elements of
 our PERIODIC TABLE - the "PLANETARY BODY", as Gurdjieff used to call it.

 The second category, however, and the one with which we are here
 concerned, is the category of those beings (CREATED BEFORE MAN WAS) who
 are referred to collectively in Arabic as AL-JINN *1*.  Although there
 is some dispute about it among Arab grammarians, most of their lex-
 icologists seem to hold that the word derives - as Arabic words almost
 invariably do - from a verb-root, namely JANNA, "TO HIDE OR TO CONCEAL"
 - indeed a very fitting derivation for the name of these creatures.

 Whereas the bodies of Angels are of light and the bodies of men
 are of the gross elements of the Earth, the bodies of AL-JINN consist
 of what is variously translated as "ESSENTIAL FIRE" *2*, or "ESSENTIAL
 FLAME", or "SMOKELESS FIRE" *3*, or "SMOKELESS FLAME", and it is
 specifically stated in the QUR'AN (Surah XV, 26 and 27) THAT THEY WERE
 CREATED BEFORE MANKIND WAS. (Some scholars have speculated that these
 might be the "PRE-ADAMIC MEN" whose existence is hinted at here and
 there in the "Holy Bible.")

 There has been much debate among modern students of Arabic as
 to precisely what these terms "MIN NARI AL-SAMUMI" *2* and "MIN MARIJIN
 MIN NARIN" *3* can conceivably mean in modern parlance, and some
 scholars have concluded that, in using these terms, the Prophet Muhammad
 (the Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him) was there attempting to
 describe what Western occultists have tried to describe by such terms
 as ETHER, or maybe the so-called ETHERIC OR ASTRAL PLANES. (I have also
 seen it suggested that some sort of PLASMA is indicated.)

 (Needless to say, such concepts as ETHERIC PLANE and ASTRAL
 PLANE have no meaning for modern Science and, so far as I know, apart
 from Dirac, the physicists have abandoned their speculations regarding
 the existence of an ether.)

    THE SOURCE OF THE JINNS

 Wherever it is that the JINNS are thought of as being normally
 located, it seems highly likely that the source of many of them, at any
 rate, is not very distant from us, and some Muslim scholars who have
 become aware of the current Western research into the so-called "UFO
 Phenomenon" and have reflected awhile upon it have concluded - and I
 think correctly - that maybe the best way we can start to visualize
 these matters is by thinking of the JINNS AS BEING VERY CLOSE INDEED
 TO US AND AND YET AT THE SAME TIME SOMEHOW VERY FAR FROM US.  IN OTHER
 WORDS, ON SOME OTHER DIMENSION, OR IN SOME OTHER SPACE/TIME FRAMEWORK,
 "RIGHT HERE', OR MAYBE IN A WORLD OF ANTI-MATTER RIGHT HERE, OR
 OCCUPYING AS IT WERE SOME OTHER UNIVERSE THAT IS HERE, BEHIND ALICE'S
 MIRROR: "A MIRROR-UNIVERSE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SPACE-TIME
 CONTINUUM" AS IT HAS BEEN NEATLY PUT BY SOME INVESTIGATORS.

 The QUR'AN, however, is not clear on this, and admittedly it looks
 as though it is very possible that some of the JINNS could be fully
 physical and what we call extraterrestrials, while other species of
 them are of an altogether and finer sort of matter, corresponding to
 what various UFO investigators have tried to indicate by such terms
 as "ULTRATERRESTRIAL" or "METATERRESTRIAL".

 In thinking abou these ideas, we might bear in mind the theory
 of the Russian philosopher P.D. Ouspensky regarding the possible
 existence of other, more subtle, levels of matter on which the elements
 of the Periodic Table of our own chemical world are repeated - and, if
 I understand him aright, repeated more than once, on more than one
 level.  The early writings of Dr. Meade Layne in the USA about the
 "DENSE ETHERIC WORLD" from which he maintained that the UFO entities
 and their craft originated should also be borne in mind.  (His book,
 THE COMING OF THE GUARDIANS, was published in 1958, and may prove one
 day to have been very important indeed.)  Certain of the benevolent
 JINNS may well be our "Guardians".

 That there is some close affinity, or some link of destiny
 between JINNS and Mankind seems certain, for although the vast majority
 of the JINNS are DEVILS, SHAYTANS *4*, nevertheless we are assured in
 the QUR'AN that some among their many species are "goodies" and are
 capable of salvation.  For it is specifically stated that Muhammad was
 sent as a Messenger to both Mankind and the JINNS, so that, in the
 Final Days, some of the JINNS will enter into Paradise, while the rest
 of them will be cast down into Hell.  Their revelation to IBLIS *5*,
 the Top Devil ( = "Satan") is in general somewhat obscure.  In the QUR'AN
 IBLIS is certainly described as a JINN, but elsewhere in the QUR'AN he
 is also described as an ANGEL. (Surely the explanation is that IBLIS
 is that same high being, originally of Angelic status, who rebelled
 against God and is named in the Christian texts as "LUCIFER?")

 Had we the space, much more might be said about the JINNS and
 their doings, but only a brief account of their main characteristics
 can here be given.  Their principal features, as listed below, are as
 I have gathered them from all the Muslim written and traditional
 sources that I have been able to consult over the past 15 years.  The
 reader can see for himself the parallels with the reported features
 of UFO entities and can draw his own conclusions.  I hope I do not
 have to labour the point, space being precious.

    THE CHIEF CHARACTERISTICS OF THE JINNS

 1. In the normal state they are not visible to ordinary human
 sight.

 2. They are, however, capable of materializing and appearing
 in the physical world.  And they can alternately make themselves
 visible or invisible at will.

 3.  They can change shape, and appear in any sort of guise,
 large or small. (See for example, Ahmad Jamaludin's excellent report,
 A WAVE OF SMALL HUMANOIDS IN MALAYSIA IN 1970, in FSR Vol. 28, No. 5).
 Ahmad Jamaludin is a Muslim, and he knows, of course, what it is that
 we are talking about.

 4. They are able also to appear in the guise of ANIMALS. (Yetis?
 Pumas? Loch Ness Monsters?)

 5. They are inveterate liars and deceivers, and delight in
 bamboozling and misleading mankind with all manner of nonsense. (See
 the average Spiritualist SEANCE for examples of their activities, and
 also the usual "communications" from UFO entities in close-encounter
 cases.)

 6. They are addicted to the abduction or kidnapping of humans.
 (The Scotsman Robert Kirk, who wrote "THE SECRET COMMONWEALTH" in 1691,
 evidently "knew more than was good for his health", and was killed by
 them.)

 7. They delight in tempting humans into sexual intercourse and
 liaisons with them, and Arabic literature abounds with accounts of this
 kind of contact by mankind with both the "goodies" and the "baddies"
 among the JINNS.  There are also even a considerable number of accounts
 of encounters between the "goodies" and famous Muslim saints.  For
 example, the book MANAQUIB AL-ARIFIN *6* has a number of very significant
 references to contacts between such higher beings, and JALAL AL-DIN RUMI,
 Islam's greatest mystical poet, who lived from 1207 to 1273.

 (I often wonder which category of JINNUS it was that was en-
 countered in Brazil by the farmer A.V.B.  See my third article on
 "A.V.B.", POSTCRIPT TO THE MOST AMAZING CASE OF ALL, in FSR Vol. 11,
 No. 4, August 1965.)


 IN OFFICIAL ISLAM - AND THIS CANNOT BE OVER-EMPHASIZED - THE
 EXISTENCE OF THE JINNS HAS ALWAYS BEEN COMPLETELY ACCEPTED, EVEN LEGALLY,
 AND EVEN TO THIS DAY, IN ISLAMIC JURISPRUDENCE.  THE FULL CONSEQUENCES
 IMPLIED BY THEIR EXISTENCE WERE WORKED OUT LONG AGO.  THEIR LEGAL STATUS,
 IN ALL RESPECTS, WAS DISCUSSED AND FIXED, AND THE POSSIBLE RELATIONS
 BETWEEN THEM AND MANKIND - ESPECIALLY IN RELATION TO QUESTIONS OF
 MARRIAGE AND PROPERTY! - WERE SERIOUSLY EXAMINED BY JURISTS, AS THE
 GREATEST AND MOST AUTHORITATIVE WESTERN SOURCE, THE ENCYCLOPAEDIA OF
 ISLAM, CONFIRMS.

 Stories of sexual commerce between JINNS and mankind have been of
 perennial interest to Arab readers, and it is important at this point to
 mention that in CHINESE literature (and in China the Han population are
 not Muslims - only certain of the smaller minority peoples of the North-
 West and Far West are) there is also a considerable tradition of this
 sort which awaits examination by Ufologists.

  The great Arabic literary catalogue known as the FIHRIST *7*,
 compiled in the year 373 of the Muslim Calendar ( = C.E. 995) by
 Muhammad bin Ishaq bin Abi Ya'qub al-Nadim al-Warraq al-Baghdadi, lists
 no less than sixteen works dealing with this theme. (Compare also the
 European occultists' records of sexual contact between men and female
 SYLPHS, as well as the copious mediaeval Christian records relating to
 INCUBI and SUCCABAE.)

 Most Westerners will discount all this talk about the JINNS with
 the usual argument that the Arabs "are barbarians anyway".  Let me
 therefore point out that, in C.E.995, when the FIHRIST was written, the
 brilliant civilization of the Arabs was incomparably higher than anything
 elsewhere in the world except for China and that Christian and Western
 RENAISSANCE owes its origins as much to our contact with Islam (the
 Crusades) as to the early percolation of Greek learning to the West.

 As a matter of fact quite a lot of the philosophy and the literature of
 the Greeks reached us first, not in Greek at all, but in the Arabic
 translations secured from Cordoba and Toledo in Spain in the 10th and
 11th centuries, when the Muslims still held most of Spain.  It is only
 in the last few centuries, and particularly since the Industrial
 Revolution and the growth of modern materialistic Science, that the
 West has forged ahead.  But in 1200 C.E. Muslim Science was in the
 lead, particularly in such fields as Medicine, Mathematics, and
 Astronomy, and it would be grossly impudent to assume that our current
 "superiority" over them has anything permanent about it.

 8. THE JINNS are wont to snatch up humans and teleport or
 transport them, setting them down again - if indeed they ever do set
 them down again - miles away from where they were picked up, and all
 this is the "twinkling of an eye". (See my first article on TELEPORTATIONS,
 about the Spanish soldier who, on October 25, 1593, was suddenly taken
 from Manila in the Philippine Islands across the Pacific to Mexico City.
 In FSR Vol. 11, No. 2, 1965).

 9. The Arabian tradition asserts that, throughout all known
 history, there have been a few particular human beings who, through
 some strange favour, have "been in league with the JINNS" or "had a
 compact with the JINNS" - to such a degree that the JINNS have endowed
 them with what we regard as "preternatural powers" - ie., PSYCHIC POWERS.
 These humans have consequently become known as wonder-workers,
 soothsayers, and MAGICIANS. (Either "white magicians" or "black
 magicians", depending of course upon what sort of JINNS they were in
 league with.)

 Here again, compare the European tradition about individuals who
 have discovered how to collaborate with the KINGDOM OF THE SYLPHS or the
 FAIRIES.  For example, there is the case of the "working partnership",
 not more than seventy years ago, between a SYLPH and a highly successful
 Parisian dealer in rare old books.  The SYLPH made its contribution by
 acting as the "scout" and finding out where and in whose possession the
 rare books were.  All the dealer had to do then was to approach the
 owners and offer to buy!

 10.  Along with all these displays of prowess by the JINNS there
 goes, finally, a tremendous TELEPATHIC POWER and the ability (to use an
 age-old term) to "CAST A GLAMOUR" over their human victims.  Our UFO
 records are already full of evidence of this.

 How much of what we see happening today, at the highest levels
 of international politics, as well as in ordinary human affairs, can
 be attributed to this subtle control and interference in our lives by
 insidious and unseen forces!  Indeed, this is one of the prime reasons
 for the parlous state in which man finds himself.  Some recent reports
 from UFO investigators hint at alien plans to provoke war here and drive
 the Gadarene Swine (mankind) over into the abyss.

 The present-day Christians, who generally seem to have very
 little sense of curiosity, are apparently quite happy to pass their
 days in total ignorance of all this.  But a careful study of the New
 Testament (AND ONLY IN THE ORIGINAL GREEK!) will show clearly that
 nothing of what is said above was unknown either to the Teacher and
 Healer Jeshu of Nazareth or to his principal followers - particularly
 Paul. (Incidentally, Christians may like to know that in Islam the full
 name and title of Jeshu of Nazareth is ISSA, SON OF MARY, WORD OF GOD.)

 Long before the rise of Christianity or Islam there were of
 course other great Teachers (Messengers) who preceived clearly the
 situation in which mankind finds itself.  One of these was Zarathustra
 (Zoroaster) in the old Iranian civilization of the Achaemenidae - about
 600 or 700 years B.C.E. The great religious text left by Zarathustra is
 the AVESTA, which tells us much about the Demonic Forces, referred to
 under the blanket term of AHRIMAN, the Enemy of Light.  Mankind, in
 this teaching, is seen as a special creation of ORMAZD, the SUPREME
 SPIRIT, who is locked in permanent conflict with AHRIMAN.

 THE SOUL OF MAN IS THE OBJECT OF THE WAR, AND MAN HIMSELF IS
 THE BATTLEFIELD.

      DR. RUDOLPH STEINER

 In our days, there has probably been no teacher who saw and
 understood all this more clearly that the great Austrian Dr. Rudolf
 Steiner (1861-1925), founder of the Anthroposophical Society.

 "Clairvoyant" from childhood, Steiner [claims he] saw into the other worlds
 and planes and saw deeply into the human heart, and no books or teach-
 ings are so relevant as his are to the crisis of mankind that is now
 upon us.  His lectures throughout 1917, for example, show clearly that
 he foresaw, in their totality, the political, social, and military
 results and the police-state tyranny which would inevitably follow from
 the Russian Revolution, just as the "Lady" of the Apparitions at Fatima
 in the same year also did.  Steiner foresaw what would result in the
 world as a whole from a materialistic science run mad:  the development
 of "test-tube" man, "biological engineering" and other horrors; the
 deliberate creation and development of living monsters; and the soul-
 less, God-less, dehumanized, computerized, insect-like chromium and
 plastic slave world of "1984" that may now be at hand.

 According to Steiner, a tremendous and crucial round in the
 battle was fought out in the last thirty years of the 19th century,
 and on the Inner Planes, between the Forces of AHRIMAN (the term he
 took over from Zarathustra) and the FORCES OF LIGHT.  These latter
 are conventionally known to Western (Christian) tradition as the
 Cohorts of Michael.  Steiner said that the fight ended in a complete
 victory for the LIGHT, but that, as a result of it, a great many of
 the powerful demonic beings had been actually cast down upon the
 planet Earth, with the consequence that their presence and their in-
 fluence now impinge more than ever upon the propects and the destiny
 of mankind.

 STEINER TAUGHT THAT THE COMING YEARS WILL SEE INCREDIBLE
 UPHEAVALS, IN THE COURSE OF WHICH THIS GREAT BATTLE WILL BE CARRIED
 FORWARD, TO ITS CONCLUSION, INSIDE EVERY HUMAN HEART.  See Rudolf
 Steiner: DER STURZ DER GEISTER DER FINSTERNIS: (THE OVERTHROW OF THE
 SPIRITS OF DARKNESS), Series of Lectures, 1917. (Available only in
 German.)

 The objective of the Forces of Darkness is to take over the
 stream of human evolution, to merge with it, and to divert mankind
 from the evolutionary development "planned" for it.  The end result of
 this would be new creatures in which those qualities that represent
 the highest that we know would have been eliminated.

 Smart-alecky modern man of the Pop Age, the "Trousered Ape" as
 he has been called, has of course no use for all this sort of "rubbish",
 and immense numbers of our species have discarded all belief in the
 existence of demons, along with any belief in the Great Power that rules
 the Universe.

 (Sophisticated folk nowadays know that the world was not created
 by God, but by Karl Marx.  And they know that Lenin and successors are
 His Prophets.)

 There is a delightful passage in C.S. Lewis's SCREWTAPE LETTERS,
 where the Senior Devil, talking to one of his underlings, makes a
 profoundly important remark:  "OF COURSE, OUR GREATEST TRUMP-CARD IS
 THE FACT THAT EVERYBODY *KNOWS* WE DON'T EXIST." (Or words to that
 effect.)

 Similarly, the vast majority of mankind KNOW that JINNS and UFOs
 and UFO entities don't exist.  And what a nice advantage that is for
 the entities!

 But what if HOMO SAP (so-called, self-dubbed) were in for some
 big shocks in the near future?  What then?

 With the recent advance of Science, man has rapidly become aware
 of the vastness of the Cosmos and of the probability that there exist
 out there innumerable other physical worlds inhabited by intelligent
 beings, some of which, for all we know, may be (as we dearly hope)
 identical with men, with our tastes and our values, our hopes and our
 fears.

 It is natural that some among us, surveying the impasse into
 which we have got ourselves, might well be tempted to look up to the
 stars in the hope that someone wiser than we are might arrive one day
 from there and give us all the easy answers.


 If there be any truth in the ancient story that the inhabitants
 of Magonia, unlike men, do not possess the possibility of developing
 immortal souls, and therefore are anxious to acquire such by mating
 with us and mingling their life-stream with ours, what moment could be
 more propitious to them for achieving their purpose than now?

  Can't you just hear the message of their Captain?

 -"WE ARE FROM TAU CETI, AND WE COME TO BRING YOU SALVATION
          AND SHOW YOU THE WAY OUT OF YOUR PROBLEMS.  WE WILL GET
    YOU OFF THE HOOK!"
