A million alien gospels, in what guise
He trod the Pleiades, the Lyre, the Bear.
O be prepared my soul!
To read the inconceivable, to scan
The million forms of God those stars unroll
When, in our turn, we show to them a man.
In mentioning Christ, two well-known Bible verses have always seemed to the author as inferences about other planets and other beings. In John 10:16 we are told, “And other sheep I have which are not of this fold.” While generally taken to mean those outside of the faith, in a larger context Christ may well have been referring to those other worlds that His Father has created and populated. The other verse is “In my Father’s house are many mansions,” found in John 14:2. To my mind as an astronomer, “mansions” (sometimes translated as “rooms”) is a reference to other planets and “house” to the very universe itself!
Alternative Life Forms
When considering the existence of life elsewhere in the cosmos as we have so far in this chapter, the assumption is usually made that it’s life in a physical form that’s being discussed. But as Sir Fred Hoyle suggested in his novel The Black Cloud, mentioned above, it may also be found in the form of beings without bodies—ones consisting of pure thought and energy. Interestingly, Edgar Cayce talked in a number of his readings about highly evolved “energy beings” consisting of individualized “thought forms” without physical bodies that came to our planet millions of years ago. Through a process known as “involution,” they pushed or infused their consciousness into the matter and primitive life forms existing on the Earth at that time. Here are a few of those readings pertaining to such entities:
… there came first those in the earth as thought forms that were able to partake of that about them; and so absorb them, much as we see in the lower forms of material manifestations in life, and moved by the spirit to become that they found or absorbed in their being.
5756-11
Hence as we find, when souls sought or found manifestation in materiality by the projection of themselves into matter—as became thought forms—and when this had so enticed the companions or souls of the Creator, first we had then the creation in which “God breathed into man (God-made) the breath of life and he became a living soul,” with the abilities to become godlike.
