    About this ebook

    Suppose you could communicate with a visitor who was not from this place, time-space or even this dimension? What would you want to ask them? The answers probably lie in what our own response would be if we were them. This book is based on a collection of interviews I have had with a few individuals who may have actually had such an experience. The idea is that if enough of us are ready to ask the questions and gain the answers, then our collective knowledge and understanding of the "multiverse" about us can only continue to be enhanced.
    Sometimes the responses that you will read here are similar; often they are diametrically opposed to each other. An open but highly skeptical mind is extremely necessary if you are going to sift through the data that is presented in this book. The intent is that it should peak your curiosity to learn more about "visitors." In this way, we may be better informed and prepared, and thus in some sort of coherent shape to deal with their arrival. If you read this book, you must be well prepared to choose for yourself what you will or will not believe.

      EPIGRAPH

      And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.²

      FOREWORD

      First let me say how exciting it is to be asked to write the foreword for a book. Then I would need to add how exciting it is to write a foreword for a book with such an interesting and controversial subject.

      Where do I begin, how do I begin?

      This book offers the reader many things. It gives the reader an insight into a world where there is always much mystery and misunderstanding. This book provides the reader with information compiled and gleaned over many years. For me, the most important part of the book is the opportunity for the reader to make up his or her own minds on how to accept this material. Like many things in life, you should only take from it what you feel that you need.

      To the readers that are attracted to this book, it offers information and insight into other worlds and other kinds of thinking. For the majority of the population this book will be considered very ‘far out’.

      For me the one thing that makes this book so unique is the research that has gone into it. Hal never leaves a stone unturned and is probably more like an encyclopedia on this and other related subjects. Not only does he have the book knowledge of these things; he often has lived and walked in areas of dear Terra where he was able to feel the energy of the place. He breathes this energy into his work and after reading you will soon get a sense of the man.

      His passion for ensuring no harm is done always left me feeling comfortable even though it is an unnecessary form of protection. I grew to understand how he felt about these things and acknowledged his need to protect. As you read further, Hal and I have agreed to disagree on some things. For me the intent of the visitors is clear and there is little for us to fear, but fear itself. Hal does not share that sense. However while Hal might disagree, I have sensed a softening of that position over time!

      The reader will get a well-balanced approach to the idea behind visitors. It is more like a how-to manual for those with minds that need to know.

      I have known Hal for a number of years now, and while in the beginning it was very strange for me to be talking to, emailing a military man, it always felt right. To discuss things such as "visitors’ outside of a certain circle still brings judgment, censure and a branding of sorts. I am aware of this, and for these reasons have chosen to use my original name and not my earthly name. Even as I write these words, I bring judgment and censure to myself.

      And it is with that feeling that I realize the importance of this book, of the work that is being done. As human beings we need to move forward and eliminate our fear of visitors. To do this we need to understand them more, and feel more comfortable with the idea of it all.

      This book will help with that!

      PREFACE

      The founding premise of this book is that nothing is by accident. Therefore, you may need to ask yourself the following questions. What lessons am I to learn from who and what I am going to encounter? Am I helping or hindering a resolution to any given situation that I may find myself in? For that matter, am I rescuing or saving" someone from something, or am I simply meddling or interfering? What is it that needs to take place in order to achieve a successful resolution to the problem question posed in any given situation presented here, and what needs to be left well enough alone? More specifically, what comes from the shadow places, what comes from the light, and do I have the skills to discern the difference? These sorts of questions are applicable no matter how unusual the situation or circumstances you might possibly find yourself in when it comes to dealing with visitors. Make the most of whatever opportunities you may encounter, and should you find answers to the questions posed here, please share them.

      Interesting and unusual events occur throughout all of our lives. Whenever and wherever they happen, I have found it to be a valuable lesson and a good idea to conduct an intensive personal inward look at and oneself about the nature of the things that have taken place. The key question usually centers on how it was that the events came to pass the way they did, and what it is that they mean for the future. I prefer to examine the origin of a particular event (or the cause of it), at its source, by going upstream to the key point and place in time to where and when the event began. Perhaps you conduct the same sort of investigations yourself. If so, then I would suspect that you have asked many of the same kinds of questions you will find posed to the visitors in this book. Perhaps you have already connected a series of the dots in the threaded line of questions, and come up with some useful conclusions of your own. In this sense, I would like to ask you the following question. Have you ever had the feeling that someone (or something) was trying to tell you something?

      My hope is that this book will leave you with some possible answers to this question. Perhaps some or all of the seemingly unconnected events that you have no doubt experienced in your life do have a specific connection. Perhaps nothing is by accident, and even more likely, you have been aware when it has been so. Perhaps, like me, you have wondered if the purpose of the visitor’s arrival has been for a variety of reasons, some for a higher purpose, others possibly not. The material I have presented here is aimed at showing as many sides of the visitors as possible. You will find a fair number of quotations here, for and against many sides of the possible answer. You must choose for yourself which of the many possible visitor scenarios is unfolding.

      At the end of this book, it is also my intent that you ask yourself whether you have possibly been affected in some way by visits, or strange events that didn’t seem connected at the time but in hindsight do now. Did these events that unfolded before you happen in the way that they were supposed to happen? Could things have been played out differently? Were you the bridge or catalyst to help move things forward, and if so, how, where, when, what and why?

      These kinds of questions and many of the possible answers that can be found are presented here as they have been given to me. I have found myself asking whether I have had the time (or the presence of mind) to ask for appropriate guidance before responding to, or reacting to, the comments and responses posed to the questions I have asked. Most often I have found that gut instinct is the best form of guidance, and in general, it continues to be spontaneously provided. As has been said by others in another place and time, when the time is right, you will be provided with the wisdom and with the direction you need to see things through, whatever the processes and end results may be.

      For my part, I would like to know, what comes next? I therefore watch from the inside while taking part on the outside, because in my experience, there is always more to follow. Perhaps you do the same. I have also found that in most experiences, there is a lesson to be learned. What is important is that one learn from the lesson being taught, and apply the Lessons Learned (LL) to the next task you are assigned (and don’t make the same mistake twice). It is very important to understand, however, that if you don’t ask the questions, you may never learn the answers. It is always a good idea to take very careful notes and to record the details of any particularly interesting experience (or visit) which you may encounter. Once you have examined the experience from all possible angles you too may realize that, as I said at the beginning, nothing is by accident. What then, is the bottom line? As far as I have been shown, we are guided in all that we do. We all have a purpose, and sometimes a mission to accomplish. The challenges posed are for our growth. When it is deemed to be necessary, we will be advised and guided to the best response, although quite often it will be instinctive, or intuitive. This is what permits those of us who are on this plane to sleep in peace, even when there are unexpected Visitors.

      ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

      I would particularly like to thank Mac, Norm, Donna, Tashni, Pam, Gil, Spark and Aria, not only for their contributions, but for their support and unflagging encouragement. Grant that we all walk in the light. Always. Acorn.

      INTRODUCTION

      Acorn’s Rules

      Before you begin to read these stories, there are a number of rules that I would like to request that you absorb and keep handy (with as many grains of salt as you feel are required, of course):

      Rule 1. Think for yourself. There are plain and simple truths to be acknowledged. We are given God’s gift of the ability to think and reason for ourselves. Anyone or anything that would stand in the way of this right, or attempt to take it away from you can only be doing so with evil intent. Free thought, free will and the gift of reason and sound common sense are your most important tools for life. Make the most of them.

      Rule 2. Apply the Duck Theory. If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, the odds are good that it just may be a duck. If it is a duck, then call it one. Fear no question, and fear no answer. It may only be, after all, a duck.

      Rule 3. Be discerning. We have been given a strong message, and that message is that the Kingdom of God is within. No middlemen or other power-control seekers are required or permitted to come between you and God, although many different kinds of characters and entities (both dark and light) have attempted to do so and will continue to try. You have direct contact with God from inside yourself straight to him.

      This is the reason that the incredible power of prayer works. This business of wrapping yourself in light for protection is important, because you cannot be a victim unless you let yourself be one. The dark doesn’t like the light, because once it has been touched by the light, it isn’t dark any-more—but it may still try to smother it. It is not information you have to fear, but those who would use it to your disadvantage. Exercise your freedom of free thought and choice. It may sound like something out of the story of Anne of Green Gables, but the fact is, the one true sin…is dispair. That is what darkness lives off of."³

      Rule ⁴. Respect a different opinion. If you have neither respect nor tolerance for a different point of view, then this book is going to make you very unhappy. People have an inalienable (in alienable?) right to ask questions and have different opinions, and one must be tolerant of them even if they don’t fall in accord with yours. If a person is wearing pink and purple polka dot glasses, (PPPDG), then that is how he or she will see the world. You may not be wearing the same kind of glasses, and therefore even though both of you may be looking at the same thing, you won’t necessarily see those things in the same way. That doesn’t make either of you wrong. It is only wrong when the person wearing the PPPDGs abuses his or her position with them. He or she can do this by deliberately removing the PPPDGs to see for him or herself what is there without them, then not permitting a change in point of view in spite of the evidence found. Even when something can be seen to be black or white, there are those who will persist in trying to convince someone else that the world is indeed still PPPD colored. This is usually done to gain or keep power over you, and must never be accepted. If in doubt, go back to the duck theory, because someone who sounds like they are trying to put one over on you probably is. Always look behind the eyes of the person who is speaking to you, and if they do not return your look, beware. Someone not being truthful will always have a hard time looking you square in the eye.

      Rule ⁵. Think outside the box. Think both laterally (there are other possible reasons why things seem PPPD when they may not be), and vertically. (There are other times and places in the past and future that may be having an effect on what is happening in the present.) Keep an open but skeptical mind. Nothing is by accident. Sometimes a duck can be a swan (or a decoy), but either will be self-evident (meaning the duck theory applies, even when it is not a duck).

      Rule ⁶. Not everything is as it seems at first sight. It is said that even the devil can appear as an angel. Just because another creature or being looks like the devil, this doesn’t necessarily mean that it is one or that it will act like one. Looks can be deceiving, so always ask yourself what kind of duck is it? Conversely, even if something looks good, be careful that it doesn’t wind up eating you alive.

      Rule ⁷. Always return to Rule ¹, think and reason for yourself, and always rely on your own personal faith in God’s gifts to you, and use them often. If in doubt, remember the duck theory.

      Acorn sends.

      Primo non nocere.

      Standards

      The standards of science are strict. But when followed they allow us to see far, illuminating even a great darkness.⁴

      What is a visitor?

      For the purpose of this book, a visitor may fall into the same category as an alien. An alien is defined in the Oxford dictionary as relating to or denoting beings from other worlds—or more specifically, a being from another world.⁵ I would prefer to use the term visitor because I believe that it more accurately refers to those entities who come from somewhere (or some when) else, and who are here making a visit. Other dictionaries have defined the word visitor as a variant of the word visitant, which can be interpreted to mean supernatural, rather than a human visitor.⁶ I will leave it to the reader to decide which category to place them in. I should also add that Webster’s dictionary defines visitors as belonging to another country or people. An alien can be strange, not natural, or, a hypothetical being from outer space, as in science fiction, that visits or invades the Earth."⁷

      Perhaps they are not from here, and then again, perhaps they have always been here. Nothing is fixed in stone, and yet nothing is by accident. If you can accept that, then you might find the following material to be of interest.

      Quest

      Your quest is known to us, said Galadriel.⁸

      Like sailors on a becalmed sea, we sense the stirring of a breeze.⁹ For those of the shadows, be warned. Only love and light are allowed on this planet. Only love and light are permitted to be here. All others are to leave immediately.¹⁰ For those of the light, take heart. Acorn.

      Multiverse

      Our universe may merely be one of the innumerable frothing bubbles on the surface of a vast and turbulent cosmic ocean called the multiverse.¹²

      …heaven is within you.

      Keep an Open Mind

      Keeping an open mind is the most important task. Realize that life is more than meets the eye. Life goes beyond our five senses. Be receptive to new knowledge and to new experiences. Our task is to learn, to become God-like through knowledge." ¹³

      Being Prepared for the Unexpected

      Unexpected opportunities have been known to happen when a person least expects them to. Suppose you could communicate with a visitor, someone not from this place, time space or even this dimension? What would you want to ask them? What would you want to know, and what do you think they would want to ask and to know about you? Now of course there are the obvious questions, such as who are they, what are they, where are they from, and how and when did they get here, but wouldn’t it be more important to know why it was that they came? The answers probably lie in what our own response would be if we were in their position. Imagine your response if you were asked why it was that we would want to come here or go there, and what would we want to know when we got there?

      I have thought about the possibility of an encounter with a visitor for some time, although to the best of my knowledge I have not had this experience. In the process, however, I have compiled a draft list of questions that I felt would help me to be better prepared for the meeting should the unexpected opportunity arrive. I have read about, and perhaps met a few individuals who have claimed that they have actually had such an encounter or experience. There may actually be many, although this I honestly don’t know. Technically, most of these experiencers have likely had what are generally called close encounters.

      When I have crossed the path of experiencers who claim to have had such an encounter and who have been willing to share their stories, I have attempted to record their stories and to compare the information gleaned. Often the information has been conflicting, or at odds with what is known or accepted. Sometimes, however, the observations that have been related to me by the experiencers, have been very similar in their details. This of course has provided me with much food for thought on what is real, what has been imagined, what has been dreamed, and what has actually taken place. Often the details of one person’s story have over-lapped or blurred into another account by a different observer, and the dividing line becomes very unclear. In this account, where the stories are similar, they are blended, and where they are radically different they are presented as separate entries. Because of the great variety of some of the responses, I have had to continuously refine my list of possible questions to ask the visitors, should the opportunity ever arise to pose them. Although for obvious reasons it is ever-changing, I have included the list as a general quick reference at the back of the book in Appendix D.

      Almost every answer to a question generated about visitors results in a quest for more information. In other words, every answer gleaned seems to lead to many more questions (usually on a scale of one to three). Therefore, as you will see, it is necessary to continuously modify the questions and in turn keep the draft list constantly updated. The list could be endless, in the eyes of many, for there are as many possibilities for points of discussion as there are people who have a desire to learn. This list barely scratches the surface of the possible questions any one individual might have about the humanistic, scientific and historical possibilities one could touch on. Perhaps you have a list of your own that is as long and inclusive of things of interest to you. Your list might logically include many questions on things that have not occurred to me or to others to ask, based on your different interests. Obviously, many of the questions that I hope to ask, and the kinds of responses that I am looking for, may not be of interest to others. Those questions and your list would, of course, be could grist for another story. My feeling is that if enough of us are ready to ask the questions, and should we win the opportunity to be provided with the answers, then our collective knowledge and understanding of the multi-verse about us can only continue to be enhanced.

      Based on discussions I have had with a number of highly gifted individuals who have been granted the ability to channel, I have attempted to compose a story that encapsulates the numerous bits of outside information that I have been provided, and to write them down for your perusal here. The material that is found in this book is basically conducted in the form of a running interview. I have used a great number of what my friend’s tell me is a never-ending series of questions as the straw man on which this book about visitors is built. I have also added a few quotes from others who have written on the subject, for comparison purposes. The majority of the material you will find presented here requires the application of a healthy dose of inquiring skepticism to deal with, particularly when the answers at times conflict (which is more often than not). In any event, you must judge the value of the material presented here and make use of the first rule. Think for yourself.

      Five Incredible People

      Over the years that I have been making inquiries and while carrying out a great deal of research on projects that are not necessarily related, I have managed to meet or be introduced to a number of gifted people. Most of them I know or have met in person, but also some I also came into contact with through the Internet and telephone. There are basically five key individuals I have spoken with, often in some detail, who have been generous enough to share their thoughts and perceptions on the subject of visitors. I would therefore first like to tell you something about these special people and why they are the main sources for these interviews.

      I have attempted to provide the particular point of view for each of these five people, because of the general similarity in their responses. Quite often they would also provide highly varied or radically opposite responses to some of my questions, but the quality and accuracy they provide has a solid feel to it (this is my Duck Theory at play). It has been my experience in interviews (and military debriefings), that no two people necessarily see the
