The information that the medium, Paul Hamden, passes on from extraterrestrial beings does not fit into most people's limited world view. Rather, it is consistent with the view that physical reality is a component of a much larger energetic reality populated by energetic beings. In terms of what we can understand, this energetic domain has the properties of frequency, magnitude, and resonance. For example, borders in this domain appear to be established by energy structures that fail to resonate with each other. So to cross a border, an energetic entity must first learn to resonate with the energy that defines the border. We have learned more recently that they use frequencies as an analogy for ordered states of consciousness, and resonance may occur between compatible states.
Even though our physical world view should fit inside such an expanded perspective, many people understandably believe that the larger view is a delusion. The reason is that the energetic realms are not easily recognized by our physical senses. Further, we have come to believe that purely mental phenomena such as dreams are not real. Therefore, the energetic realms also cannot be real since access to those realms is controlled by our mental apparatus. We need to learn that there are other forms of experience that are just as real as the physical experience.
The information Paul was given comes from different races of conscious beings that can live in the energetic environment. The most prominent is the Zeta race said to be from the Zeta Reticuli star system. Like us, a member of this race has a physical and an energetic existence, but is able to project its energetic body and/or its consciousness to other places in the energetic realms. This ability enables it to interact with Paul's energetic or etheric body in order to speak using his physical vocal apparatus.
While Paul is in the altered state of consciousness, he gives control of his body to the ET communicator. He becomes a passive observer, able to monitor any conversation in the 'now', but unable to participate in any conversation. He does not store any received information in memory since he is typically unable to remember it later in his normal state of awareness. Therefore, audio recordings of the sittings are always made.
This process is difficult for most people to comprehend, and so I offer a number of reasons why I believe that Paul interacts with extraterrestrial beings. These include the nature of some errors in the use of language, the complexity of the subject matter discussed, and direct personal experiences that seemed to originate with the Zeta being.
The Zeta uses Paul's vocabulary and language skills while Paul is in the altered state of consciousness. In some cases, though, he uses a word that misses the mark. The word is a synonym of the intended word, but the synonym is not quite appropriate for the given context. Examples are discussed in the chapter entitled “A model of communication”.
Such errors could arise if the Zeta were accessing a semantic network in Paul's mind where words are most strongly associated with others having similar meanings. He would choose a particular word according to its meaning, but would lack the experience of a native speaker to sense subtle differences in usage among the related words.
Some complex answers given by the Zeta are likely beyond Paul's capability to devise. For example, the Zeta's discussion of the synthetic quantum environment (SQE) brings in quantum entanglement as part of the process for creating a copy of an original environment such as the surface of the planet Mars. He then says that "this is a mirror image process" when referring to the creation of the SQE. This exactly reflects the idea that the quantum states of two entangled particles are mirror images of each other. Paul has a minimal understanding of quantum physics, so is unlikely to have constructed this scheme himself. This is discussed further in the section entitled “Synthetic Quantum Environments”.
In another example, discussed in the section on Zeta cosmology, the Zeta described the process by which they generate anomalous phenomena in the séance room. This description is analogous to a similar procedure humans apply in the signal processing field. Paul does not understand this procedure, so it is unlikely that he would have been able to express such a process himself.
In a third example, the Zeta commented about two years earlier that the etheric body is energized when a process involving oxygen in the blood expels electrical energy. He did not elaborate on the nature of the process. Now two years later, with no awareness of the Zeta's comment, I proposed a similar process based on the difference in EM absorption spectra of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood. Paul did not know of this and would not have recognized the implications if he had, so he could not have made the connection expressed by the Zeta. This is discussed further in the chapter entitled “Possible energy for the etheric body”.
There were three separate experiences clearly not mediated by Paul that were very unusual and I attribute them to actions by the Zetas. Two of these were subjective and so were not witnessed by anyone else. The third left a trail of evidence.
The first experience happened before my initial communication with the Zeta using typed messages on an internet chat system. Just after midnight before our first conversation, I was awakened from sleep by a whole-body buzzing sensation that lasted less than five seconds. The Zeta confirmed during the subsequent evening conversation that I had been "prepared for connection".
The second experience, which occurred during that conversation, was a demonstration of telepathic communication. I inquired about the meaning of the buzzing sensation during the previous night. The chat system logged the time for each communication, and the relevant section reads as follows.
[12-07-13 6:47:47 PM] Zeta: Your preparation, the preparation for connectionClearly, the answer to the question came before the question was asked. The question was sent at 6:48:12, and the answer was received in three bursts from 6:47:47 to 6:48:13. The start of the answer was received about 25 seconds before the question was sent. The most likely explanation is that the Zeta became aware of the question while I was in the process of composing it.
Curiously, after awakening on the morning following the conversation, I found the metal stopper from the kitchen sink on the floor about two meters away from the sink. This remains unexplained, and may have been a related paranormal event. Others have reported poltergeist activity in their homes after an ET contact experience (Marden URL).
The third experience is discussed in detail in the chapter entitled “A model of communication.” I received a telepathic message that clarified an apparent inconsistency in one of Paul's earlier books. According to the Zeta, the race had lost touch with their emotions when the reproductive process no longer included "an act of integration", and that "there is some sadness in this for us". I questioned Paul on how the Zetas could experience sadness when they had lost touch with their emotions.
One morning after stepping out of the shower, I received a telepathic demonstration that the Zetas' ability to express emotions was not lost. It was a brief visual and emotional animated scene, clearly impressed in my mind, of a joyful reunion between two Zetas. I saw from the viewpoint of one Zeta and felt ecstatic joy at seeing the other. I was shown directly that the Zetas do feel strong emotions, and that my interpretation of the comment in the book was incorrect.
In the vision, as I reached up to touch the other Zeta's face, I noticed that “my” hand had three long, thin fingers. Paul's subsequent confirmation of this particular aspect of the Zeta anatomy was further evidence that my vision was sent by the Zetas. It was an unusually powerful and pleasurable experience, and showed me what telepathic communication might be like.
