There is a new way of being human that is emerging on earth. Zen Benefiel is among those in the vanguard. In plain down-to-earth language he shares his story. It is a story that stretches far beyond our planetary sphere into the cosmos. His encounters with other galactic species, and his role as a liaison for our species, enable him to straddle both worldly and otherworldly dimensional realities.

With a clear sense of mission and purpose, he shares his unique experiences to open our hearts and minds to what lies beyond on truly distant shores. It takes courage to share a story that some might find difficult to comprehend or easy to discount. There is a certain humility that accompanies his accounting of events and experiences that are extraterrestrial and quite extraordinary. Still, it’s clear that he is solidly grounded here on terra firma. I applaud his efforts to work on a global peace initiative to help facilitate our shift to a new world of harmony as our species grows, matures, and expands in consciousness. Read this with an open mind and heart.

Look forward to seeing some of you there and wishing you all a Happy Holiday Season!

Kosta Makreas – Founder, ET Let’s Talk & The People’s Disclosure Movement

Kosta Makreas – Founder, ET Let’s Talk & The People’s Disclosure Movement

interviewed by your curator, Zen Benefiel for One World in a New World

And now for something completely different… with an invitation to engage Star Family visitors further through ET Let’s Talk.

We’ve been diving deep into the lives of those in the trenches in business, organizational development and systems transformation in a variety of ways. This conversation moves to a whole different world of experience, invitation and planetary advancement.

Kosta Makreas brings a new dimension to the conversations, perhaps in some ways apocalyptic to our audience, from having a professional career in software engineering to interacting with Star People. ET Let’s Talk is a collection of people from around the world, some hosting CE-5 events, that gather for the specific purpose of human initiated contact.

As two Hoosiers reuniting, we launch into some familiar territory for us. Both of us have been active in Ufology for decades, though Kosta has taken a front seat, so to speak, with his efforts to build, organize and support a vast network of folks who want to make contact with Star People, which is their preferred nomenclature according to Kosta.

What may seem odd or peculiar or even scary to some has been lifelong experiences for others. Kosta shares how his interest began as a youth and the challenges he faced growing up in a period when it wasn’t too popular to talk about engaging aliens, let alone calling them Star People. His shares a synchronistic experience his wife had while he was away on a CE-5 week-long campout.

If you haven’t heard the term, CE-5 refers to human initiated contact with Star People. Kosta’s work began with Steven Greer and quickly evolved to developing contact groups around the world on his own. ET Let’s Talk and The People’s Disclosure Movement has been growing for several years now.

Our chat moves into discussing the People’s Disclosure Movement, taking the notion of disclosure and putting it in the hands of the people instead of governments that have not been able to announce their knowledge.

Research and study is always necessary, and Kosta mentions a study that includes over 4,000 accounts from around the world. It was performed by an organization called FREE, under the title of Beyond UFOs – The Science of Consciousness and Contact with Non Human Intelligence.

We discuss Kosta’s work with ET Let’s Talk (https://etletstalk.com) and the numbers of people involved. You might be surprise, though perhaps not.

If your curiosity is sparked, you’ll enjoy the conversation for sure. We only scratch the surface of the work and how it affects those involved. For decades it wasn’t popular to speak up or out about this topic and now folks seem to be flocking toward their own discovery and engagement.

The New Science and Taking Life for a Spin around Self

Shaky Science About Nothing

There is a fascinating book, The New Science, which is the memoirs of Wilbert Smith. Smith ran Canada’s UFO investigation program, Project Magnet, in the 1950s. The material was discovered and published after his death in 1962. It’s groundbreaking still, with references to conversations with ‘people from elsewhere.’

I’m not an astrophysicist, but the idea of a ‘nothingness’ like Smith speaks of resembles the notion of the Void… from which all things come, or so we believe. This idea of nothingness is surely not understood because we really don’t have the language to describe it, yet if there are repeating patterns, fractals, in creation perhaps this is one that requires a spin around Self.

The entrance and exit within the door to the void within us, inside the tiny point of light of our soul consciousness, may reflect this same notion on a much smaller scale. We’re sorely lacking in our understanding of physics already, developing equations to account for anomalies instead of seeing the universe as anomaly-free and equating it.

We interpret the light from stars with our existing understanding, which may not be so understanding of the myriad of life forms and their location. We think we have ‘something’ and no longer question its validity, yet Smith notes that ‘people from elsewhere’ have a much different understanding of the nature of creation, and ours is in at least slight error.

Given that spin around self, and the assumption that Smith wasn’t fibbing, our questions for discovery may not have developed enough yet to fully comprehend what those structures we think are black holes really are and how they function. Seeing things at a distance makes it almost impossible to fully grok, imho. What is up close now?

Are you aware that you are aware of your awareness at any given moment? Are you able to observe yourself deeply, question your behaviors, beliefs and bewilderment of them at times? Do you have moments of reflection that seem to evade the notion of time?

There’s been more than one time I’ve been sucked into some kind of ‘tube’ that feels like a conduit of travel. It began with out-of-body experiences as a youth, then progressed to traveling elsewhere, though I never really knew where. There was a sense of movement, though.

I don’t know if it is inner space, outer space or a combination. The difference is having my eyes closed as I explored, initially believing it to be my imagination. It would seem that, all things functioning as ONE, that the combination is probably true. Experiencers (those explores of non-human contact), at some point, seem to corroborate such ‘trips,’ although descriptions are slightly different.

I agree that the form doesn’t have much to do with it, and yet consciousness needs to have some form of manifestation for interaction to take place. I was shown as a teen that our point of light (the anchor of life within us) can give access to infinite intelligence. For some time we’ve been experiencing a variety of mechanisms and styles of contact, not to mention various life forms. As this process continues, perhaps we realize we missed the idea of ‘nothing’ that is the foundation of everything.

Pick Up the Phone, Please!

We receive communication in ways we can understand it, for the most part, and it’s usually subjective and unique to the individual; a real spin around Self. I still think there are patterns we’re not seeing yet. Perhaps we weren’t ready to until recently where the spike in awareness, or the culmination of the calendars indicating an evolutionary leap is about ready to take place, has us at least looking for something more.

Perhaps there is a primer, an igniter, that unlocks our understanding and increases our ability to manifest appropriately from our nature instead of our intellect and science. The latter will catch up in time. We’ve spent most of our time in destructive testing to figure out the makings of the universe. What about constructive testing, inquiry into the natural state as it is, not what we believe it to be. Many relate that is the first step; to just BE… empty with inquiry.

I’ll use the Urantia Book as a reference that at least offers the notion of considering a plethora of types of beings and responsibilities in universe administration. The book is esoteric, compiled and presented by an intelligence or collection of intelligences in an effort to share a greater reality. Like everything ‘from elsewhere,’ out tendency is to attempt to fit the data/information into models we’re familiar.

Neppe and Close, with their Quantum Theory of Everything (Triadic Dimensional-Distinction Vortical Paradigm)  say that consciousness, time and space are tethered across 9 dimensions. Smith says the ‘people from elsewhere’ relate that the tempic, magnetic and electric fields in the Quadrature Concept span 12 dimensions, all in the spin around Self, a point of observation.

It seems consciousness is capable of experiencing all the above and the bridge between body/mind/spirit/soul is just now appearing. Or perhaps it’s been there all along and we’re just now able to conceive of it, explore it and ruminate without the fear of persecution or rejection. It’s obvious we need to evolve toward something better, something greater, for humanity.

What’s it all mean for us in a practical sense? I’m not sure, though I get the sense ‘we/they’ are trying to get us to understand that from ‘nothing’ everything emerged in perfect order; there is an order to nature and the cosmos we haven’t understood as natural order, which indicates a natural order in human experience and understanding as well.

We approach it from destructive testing, like CERN, where perhaps an approach from another direction is more appropriate; a simple change in perception that includes consciousness in the equation. I think we’re off to a good start, a silver lining in the Great Reset, perhaps a Great Weset instead, with an upwising in our wise-cracking and scoffing at things we don’t understand.

Coming out of an ‘old’ normal and transforming into a ‘new’ normal might include a deeper check-in. The obsession on self-hygiene and sequestration opened the door to explore self (our persona) and Self (our Being) in perspective. Ponder your future well in your new spin around Self. Ponder the twist on the pronoun craze going on now and consider these… I Am / We Are.

Consciousness Across Dimensions – Considerations of an Overactive Mind

Existing Dimensional Frameworks

We don’t really know, though I sense we can surmise that in the analysis of experiencer events, we can determine they occur across a plethora of worlds, a consideration of consciousness across dimensions, not necessarily all connected. It seems safe to say that the experiences are benign or benevolent, for the most part. FREE’s survey results would put those in the 1st standard deviation, 68% at least.

consciousness across dimensions - considerationsNeppe and Close, who have the most experiential relationship in their model based on my subjective experience, identify 9 dimensions where consciousness, time and space are tethered though it does not mention material planes, perhaps bringing in the first three. Smith’s material references a 12-dimensional framework with 4 sets of 3 field variants; electric, magnetic and tempic. How consciousness works is a mystery still.

I grok what Smith refers to in the ‘nothingness.’ I wonder if there is indeed an order of nature we haven’t fully understood as natural order in the universal consciousness emerging in us now. The Urantia Book calls it the Unqualified Absolute, I believe, and views might be different, though it’s definitely consistent with the Void. It’s possible there is a relationship to spin or understanding available when we discover more about the point of consciousness and its attending fields. This is the beginning of accessing consciousness across dimensions.

Misunderstandings

Our foible and folly is in seeking to qualify instead of understanding the nature of qualification. Smith alludes to it in referencing ‘spin’ and lines of force (electric, magnetic and tempic) affecting materialization. It makes sense in reference to the star-tetrahedron as well, considering a third vertical spin not referenced in most depictions. Perhaps this is a primer…

consciousness across dimensions Several years ago I witnessed three, what appeared to be, tubes of rainbow sparkled light flowing in one direction in perfect symmetry. I was mesmerized. As I watched the three one-directional flows became two-directional, then split into six with spins opposite yet not interfering with each other. The spin increased and eventually the sphere flattened out though a bubble still remained in the center, looking like the saucer-shaped craft. I’ve heard similar images called a Merkabah craft. It did precede an incredible journey that four of us shared.

Brining it back to earth and in body, I believe the corpus collasum to be a hidden gem we need to understand a little more, as  the relayer between spheres. I wonder if it goes deeper; that our capacity for greater consciousness and higher awareness is contingent upon understanding the membrane as a switchboard of sorts, and that when the right connections are made (usually by altering an existing neuropathway with a ‘change’ by choice), we garner access to a ‘higher,’ more sensitive, level of consciousness. Lipton’s work seems to edify this concept.

Consciousness Across Dimensions

How that applies spans the dimensional framework, as we are dealing with a number of styles and types of contact. Considering we’re built to learn, the introduction of this array of experience tends to indicate we’re in process of a greater awakening, consistent with the tales of transcendence. There’s still something I don’t think we’ve realized, yet. This is the revealing, the apocalypse we’ve been anticipating, imho. It’s all about a greater level of communication.

Consciousness across dimensionsWe don’t necessarily consider that people from elsewhere may or may not be able to communicate across their own dimensional divides, although by and large benign if not beneficent in nature across the gamut toward humans. The FREE surveys indicate this kind of relationship may exist based on the variety of experiencer reports, or so it seems to me considering the bell curve. I wonder if our physical forms give us the advantage of spanning the gamut of dimensional frameworks and that’s why so many lifeforms, across dimensions, are interested in our sustainability.

I wonder if the sequestrations have also affected the inner development, simply because it’s natural to ask deeper questions during times of travesty or personal trauma. This also has a ‘field’ effect on the thoughtmosphere and greater distribution of intelligent response, simply because the questions are being asked. Klauss Schwab, in his recent book COVID-19: The Great Reset, asks the question: Are we going to become more compassionate and kind as a result?

The Apocalypse – Unveiling

In order to evolve a consciousness across dimensions, empathy has to be considered a foundational pillar, right? It would seem to accompany and internally promote the switch from Profit over People to People and Planet over Profit as part of the Great Reset. It would seem to accompany the development of the individual and collective as a result of the various types of contact and the synergistic effect on human and planetary evolution toward a Type 1 Civilization.

The evolution of a Planetary Civilization with such capacity as to begin to understand the relationship of consciousness across dimensions is limitless in scope, though time is certainly a factor. However, according to Smith’s recounting, time is a measurement of the change in entropy. What if we understood natural law better and began applying that understanding strategically in our lives and world? What would increasing the rate of change in entropy do especially considering the notion of greater order?

Truth has no agenda. Service has no politics. Exopolitics need to include the scope of possible nuances and the possibility that all of these races we’re encountering may not have any relationship with each other, dimensionally, and be as unaware as we are of them until we have a moment of attention placed upon us by the attention of another, more aware, entity. Perhaps the CE-5 and similar protocols others may use will guide us toward greater understanding sooner than later.

These are some considerations of a bigger picture. Ought we ask bigger questions? What spills out sometimes takes me for a ride, too, so I hope at least some of the above connects.

What are your thoughts?
