our System. There isn't time for another waste. Now that the Great Cycle is ending and we are all entering a
new plane, all must be purified. That which is beyond hope will eliminate itself. We say 'eliminate itself' for
we will destroy nothing. Those on Saros who believe the Creator punishes or destroys anything are in
darkness. You are punished by your own deeds, as your world is now punishing itself for its crimes against
Universal Law.
"Yours will not be the first world to be offered the means of preventing that destruction and proceeding in the
full glory of its accumulated knowledge, to establish an era of enlightenment on Saros. However, if you do
accept the means offered you, and if you do establish such a 'millennium' upon the basis of your present
accomplishments, yours will be the first civilization to do so.
"Always before, the knowledge, the techniques, the instruction, have become the possessions of a chosen few;
a few who chose themselves by their open-minded and clear-sighted realization of the 'shape of things to
come'. They endeavored to pass on their knowledge in the best possible form and by the most enduring means
at their command. In a sense, they succeeded, but in another sense their failure equalled their success. Human
acceptance is, to a very large extent, measurable by human experience. Succeeding generations, who never
knew of our actual presence, translated the teachings of their elders in the terms of their own experience.
"For instance, a cross-sectional drawing, much simplified and stylized by many copyings, of one of our space
craft, became the 'Sacred Eye of Horus', and eyes of many other gods. Other symbolical and alchemical 'eyes'
are merely representative of our means of transportation. Osiris and Apollo became gods to the people, but
they were actually our representatives on Saros: they were men! The 'golden disk' now confused with the solar
disk and made a part of religion, and the 'discus' hurled sunward by the Grecian athlete and your athletes are
also symbolic of our traveling devices or 'Saucers'.
"The really important fact, however, is that we are here among you! And you, as a world-race will know it
before very much longer. The time is almost ripe, but as with all ripening things, the process may not be
hurried artificially without danger of damaging the fruit. There is a right time for every action, and the right
time for our complete revelation of ourselves to Saros is fast approaching.
"Many of you have seen our 'advance guard' already. You have met us often in the streets of your cities; but
you have not noticed us. Some, however, do 'sense' us! When we speed through your skies in the traditional
vehicles, you are amazed, and those of you who tell of what you have seen are ac-counted dupes and fools.
Actually, you are prophets of your age, seers in the true sense of the word. You in Kansas and Oklahoma, you
in Oregon and in California, and Idaho, Indiana, Maine, and Vermont--you who know what you have seen, do
not be dismayed by what so-called 'authorities' tell you. Remember, many of them haven't seen what you
have! Their faulty opinions are not based on actual experience.
"Can you imagine a material almost transparent to the rays of ordinary light, yet strong enough to endure the
stress of extremely rapid flight? Look again at the Great Nebulae, and think of the construction of your own
Milky Way Galaxy, and be-hold the Universal examples of what we have found to be the perfect shape for an
object which is to travel through what you still fondly refer to as 'empty' space. Our Crystal Bells operate in
their own Resonating Electro-Magnetic Field the same as all celestial bodies do. Your own Saros is nothing
but a huge space craft. We can travel the so-called 'speed of light' and faster, but actually light does not travel;
_Light Is!_Â
"If we chose to remain unseen, we could do so easily and, in fact, we have done so almost without exception
for hundreds of yeas. No one sees us unless we want to be seen! You must now become accustomed to our
shapes in your skies, for one day soon they will be familiar, friendly, and reassuring sights.
"One of our very ancient prophecy legends says: "To the apples we salt we return." Some of you understand
what this means. Long ago we knew what would take place on Saros and we knew that we would have to
