PUBLISHER’S LETTER
Alien spacecraft over Manhatten. From Independence Day, the movie
The Downside of ET Contact
M
uch to the chagrin of many who eagerly await the arrival of extraterrestrials to
solve the problems of Earth, astrophysicist Stephen Hawking caused considerable
excitement in April by warning that, rather than seeking such contact, we should
be trying to avoid it.
The British theoretical physicist is no stranger to the limelight. His scientific career spans
over forty years. His books and public appearances have made him a kind of academic rock
star. In 2009 he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian award in
the United States. Hawking has neuro-muscular dystrophy that is related to amyotrophic lat-
eral sclerosis (ALS), a condition that has progressed over the years and has left him almost
completely paralyzed. He speaks only with the aid of a computer. His mind, though, remains
one of the sharpest to be found in this sector of the galaxy.
It is not that Hawking thinks there is no life out there. On the contrary, he thinks that,
given the odds, almost certainly there is. It is just that there is, as he sees it, no telling what
that life may be like, and prudence would dictate that we do what we can to stay out of its
way, at least, until we know a great deal more than we do now.
Hawking’s thoughts come in a new documentary series for the Discovery Channel, Ste-
phen Hawking’s Universe, where, as one of the planet’s leading scientists, he sets out to
tackle some of the world’s really great mysteries, including space and time travel. “To my
mathematical brain,” says Hawking, “the numbers alone make thinking about aliens perfectly
rational. The real challenge is to work out what aliens might actually be like.”
PO Box 4
Most alien life, he thinks, is probably microbial or simple animals. Any intelligent, and

even civilized, life may very well view Earth as a target for colonization or some other form of
exploitation. He thinks the first contact with arriving ETs might be very much like that of the
American indians greeting European explorers. That didn’t work out very well for the in-
dians, he reminds us. One also can’t help but recall the unfortunate experience of the cargo
cults of the south Pacific during World War II.
Interplanetary travelers, he points out, could very well be nomads or pirates out to raid

FIREWALKING
he flyer I’d received in the mail in-
vited me to a four-hour seminar on
firewalking. “Everyone participating
will be taught how to walk barefoot
on hot coals without burning their feet,” it
proclaimed. To a long-time investigator of
the paranormal like me, it was an irresistible
challenge. So I made a deposit toward the
$75 registration fee to reserve my place, and
eagerly looked forward to the event.
I didn’t doubt the reality of firewalking. It
has been a well-documented fact for centu-
ries. It is almost always done in a religious
context, as part of a ceremony. The phenom-
enon was recorded as far back as when Pliny
the Elder in the first century A.D., told of the
practice by an ancient Roman family which
performed it at an annual sacrifice to Apollo.
Anthropologists have observed it today in
India, Greece, Spain, Japan, China, Bulgaria,
Sri Lanka, Tibet, Thailand, Fiji, and Brazil.
Then, of course, there is the biblical story of
the Hebrews and the fiery furnace.
I’d personally witnessed firewalking in
l974 at a California festival of religious/
spiritual/metaphysical organizations; it was
done by a Japanese priest, who demonstrated
it as part of his sect’s worship. Moreover, sev-

of the Bounty settled in 1790), is over
1200 miles to the west.

EGYPT DECODED: An Interview with

Robert Bauval
by Philip Gardiner
Robert Bauval burst on the scene in 1994
when he put forth his “Orion Correlation
Theory”(OCT) in his first book The Orion
Mystery, showing that the pattern of the
three Giza pyramids and their relative posi-
tion to the Nile mirrors the pattern of the
three stars of Orion’s belt and their relative
position to the Milky Way. His ideas pro-
voked both genuine interest and absolute
outrage within academia. Sixteen years later,
his theory is still controversial. Interviewed
on this DVD by Philip Gardiner, Bauval dis-
cusses the content of his latest book The
Egypt Code, in which he not only revisits his
OCT but goes even further by proposing that
the sky was of ultimate importance to the
Ancient Egyptian conception of cosmic bal-
ance.
He didn’t set out to do this work, how-
ever. He was born on March 5, 1948, in Alex-
andria, Egypt, to parents of Belgian origin
whose family had immigrated to Egypt in the
1890s. He’s the third generation in Egypt,
where he grew up and went to an English
school. However, he clarifies: “I say with
great sorrow that I am not an Egyptian. A lot
of people assume, automatically, that if
you’re born in Egypt, you are an Egyptian;
the sad thing about Egypt is that you’re al-
ways a non-Egyptian if you’re not by blood.”
At 19 he went to England and became a con-
struction engineer (as the route of his family
was either archaeology or engineering) and
expected that to be his life’s work.
In this DVD Bauval discusses his purpose
for writing his last book The Egypt Code. The
WHY of it all—outlined by him in the Intro-
duction to his book: “What are Egypt’s Old kilometer strip of desert? And, more intrigu- kings.

inside the Dome of the U.S. Capitol (or what
goes on inside the Capitol for that matter)
and how it relates to the concept of true
Freedom and Liberty. Two, the Temple of
Liberty has been sold. Henry quotes Sen.
Dick Durbin from April 29, 2009, ‘the banks
own the place.’ Henry agrees and thinks it’s
wrong for anyone (other than the people of
America) to own this temple. “The blood of
millions of men and women who gave their
lives for America paid for our freedom and
the Capitol,” he declares. “We honor their
sacrifice with the red lettering (symbolizing
blood) on the cover of Freedom’s Gate.”
It is, believes Henry, time for the real
owners to visit the U.S. Capitol and find out
what’s really going on inside the Temple of
Liberty. It’s time to visit the ‘money-
changers’ inside the temple and let them
know if you like what they’re doing. If you
don’t like what they’re doing, Henry thinks
there’s always the path taken by Jesus—

Amidst the chaos, emptiness, and the clear

people of the world, there is hope. “Open

If the plasma hypothesis is correct, the

thousands of years ago. They did not simply

importance otherwise. No, there was more to
the displays in the skies and the ancients
knew it. These displays, caused by strong
electrical and magnetic interactions, would
have affected human health and mental con-
sciousness (perhaps supplementing, or di-
minishing, intelligence and mental para-

dence of many very ancient cultures. When I
first re-dated the Great Sphinx of Egypt to an
extreme antiquity, one of the questions I was
asked by mainstream historians and archae-
ologists was where is the other evidence? It
might have been incinerated!
Perhaps we should take ancient knowl-
edge to heart. The displays of plasma config-
urations seen ages ago in the skies, meticu-
lously recorded in rongorongo script, may be
a record of our past and the key to predicting
future cataclysmic Earth changes.
