The Extraterrestrial Vision
Channeled Teachings from Theodore
by Gina Lake

EsotericReader.com is about to embark on a thematic journey during the course of the next few book review entries on this blog. We will be examining the channeled teachings from a variety of extraterrestrial voices — namely, the Sirians, Arcturians, Pleiadians and Zetas. We will be examining what they have to teach us during this important transitional time on planet Earth and how this transition reverberates through the galaxy. We will study their perspectives on humanity’s origins and history. And we will distinguish how each extraterrestrial group’s voice is unique, what their perspectives are and how their story is tied with humanity’s.

Most importantly, we will be trying to discern the truth in all of it. Discerning the truth is a mighty tall order, indeed, because many of the claims made in the books to come over the next few weeks cannot be fact checked. Instead, we are going to have to do what the spiritualists have taught for generations: Go inside ourselves to find the truth.

The truth should resonate with you. It should resonate with me. And it is my hope that we are going to uncover some important truths about who we are, why we are here and where we are going.

“The purpose in writing this book, I am told, is to prepare us for the many changes that will result from our discovery of celestial beings. These beings will introduce themselves to us before long, and we will be faced with integrating them into our world view.” (p7)

The Extraterrestrial Vision

I begin the theme of ET channeling with The Extraterrestrial Vision, because I initially remembered this book as being a comprehensive view of the Earth from an outside source — a multidimensional source that wasn’t necessarily aligned with any particular star system. I figured that would be a good place to start — sort of an overview to the theme of ET channeling.

However, as I began reading, I soon realized that something was amiss. The book was not nearly as multi-dimensionally sophisticated as I remembered. And as I got further into it, I started getting one red flag after another.

It was soon apparent that Theodore, the entity from whom these teachings originate, had things to say which clearly did not resonate with me as being true … despite some of the spiritual truths around which they were wrapped. And thus, I ran into a conundrum. I had already been promoting this book on the blog as the next book in line … but … What would be the point of including something that was starting to seem more and more like science fiction wrapped around popular UFO mythos, stuffed into a paradigm of karma and reincarnation?

As the red flags continued to pop up, I soon realized that I was being introduced to something that may possibly be part of a disinformation campaign using a New Age channel to promote a New World Order agenda. That’s when I realized the importance of this book. I had heard before of channels being used to promote disinfo. And now, I believe, we are going to examine first hand how those behind the New World Order agenda use channels to spread disinformation. It will be important to note how this book is presented compared against the other channeled books that will be reviewed in coming weeks. I think we are going to find a clear difference in both the information as well as the tone.

I do not know how those behind the New World Order can tap into the mind of a channel in a way that is, to the channel, completely indistinguishable from a genuine multi-dimensional entity. But it seems they do. And my feeling is that this book is proof.

But before I get ahead of myself, first a little background on this book.

“Before going into this, it might be helpful to clarify who we are and who we mean by ‘nonphysical beings.'” (p44)

Background

This book was published in 1995. The author, Gina Lake, is an astrologer and a conscious channel who has been channeling since 1986. Since publishing her two ET-based “Theodore” books, Ms. Lake has published a number of spiritual self-help books, meanwhile letting the ET books go out of print. When I first read this book, Ms. Lake’s Amazon page only listed her post-Theodore books, with no mention of ever having channeled anything ET-related. Initially, it seemed to me that she perhaps wanted to sweep her ET past under the carpet. However, since then her two Theodore books have recently been reprinted and are again available for sale.

Theodore refers to itself as a soul group. This is a concept with which I’m familiar. I first encountered it in the Law of One series of channeled books, and it does seem to make sense that as our souls evolve towards eventual reunion with Source, ultimately completing one revolution of existence out in the Universe and back again to Origin, we eventually join with other individuated souls to become soul groups. I think of the soul’s life cycle as akin to an exhalation and inhalation. On the exhalation, our souls leave Source and begin individuation, taking an individuated journey of experience and learning through the Cosmos. On the inhalation, as our souls evolve past the densest states of existence, the ego begins to dissolve and we join with other souls within the ethereal realms (or densities) to form soul groups as we (perhaps return to our planetary, solar and galactic selves, and ultimately) make our way back to Source.

Theodore states,

“We are a sixth-density entity on the mid-causal plane, where both teachers for people on Earth and guides to spirit guides can be found. Just as spirit guides are assigned to each of you, we are assigned to watch over the work of several spirit guides. We teach them how to improve their work with people…Similarly, seventh-density beings oversee the work we sixth-density beings are doing.” (p44)

That all sounds fine. Perhaps the multi-dimensional realms are truly hierarchical like that. Or perhaps, like much of the information in this book, it may simply be plausible-sounding fiction. (For an expert explanation on how our physical reality fits within a multi-dimensional reality, I highly recommend reading David Icke.)

“Human beings did not evolve naturally on Earth. They evolved from genetic engineering of ape-like primates by beings visiting your Earth millions of years ago. These extraterrestrials were the first intelligent species to discover the Earth…” (p13)

The Origin of Humanity

The first red flag that popped up for me occurred when Theodore began discussing human origins. Immediately, Theodore’s description of human origins delved no deeper than Zecharia Sitchin’s translation of the Sumerian tablets.

In fact, Theodore doesn’t simply claim that humans were genetically engineered from existing Earth primates, he claims that the individualized human soul was created as a result of this genetic engineering.

“The beings who colonized your planet knew…intelligence alone could not create soul. They knew the primates would not have evolved by themselves into human beings as you know them today. If humanoids were to live on Earth, they would either have to come from elsewhere and adapt to Earth or be created genetically with the help of a species already on Earth. Did you realize that even soul is encoded in the genes? It is. Everything is.” (p14-15)

As soon as I began reading that the human soul was a direct result of genetic engineering, however, I knew something was wrong, because from my perspective that is a completely backward way of looking at creation. I’m currently of the opinion that creation begins in the formless, ethereal realms of pure consciousness and manifests into physical reality — not the other way around.

According to The Rosicrucian Cosmo-Conception, our primordial consciousness spends eons of spiral evolution in the invisible worlds working on the creation of the physical human vehicle — working on the intricacies of each detail of the human form that we eventually inhabit. And according to The Lemurian Scrolls, our Pleiadian ancestors manifested human form by descending into physical matter via conscious intent. From my estimation, these perspectives on human origins are far more sophisticated than the simple act of genetic engineering by beings within third- or fourth-density. I simply don’t think human origins are the result of something our current scientific community can nearly duplicate.

(However, we are going to get a much more sophisticated insight into the ancient manipulation of human DNA in the next scheduled review on this blog — Patricia Cori’s The Sirian Revelations Trilogy.)

“If you saw a Pleiadian, you would never guess that he or she was not from Earth. This is why they have been chosen to introduce the extraterrestrial situation to you when the time is right.” (p63)

Mind Control Programming At Work?

Ever since I first heard the idea many years ago that the CIA used the alien abduction theme as a cover for their MK-Ultra mind control trauma ceremonies, the bug-eyed Greys and the abduction scenario took on a much broader dynamic.

So when I read the following paragraph, my first thought was CIA.

“The Pleiadians are also pledged to help the Zetas in their genetic work. They are not guiding the Zetas’ work, only helping them out as needed and following their directions. Most human-looking beings spotted by human beings on spacecraft during abductions are Pleiadian helpers, although sometimes an actual human being – usually a Star Person or a Walk-in – also is aboard to help.” (p65)

Perhaps, if one facet of the CIA’s MK-Ultra program was to disguise their trauma rituals as UFO abductions, then the above paragraph provides cover for any human participants — they are simply Pleiadian helpers.

Theodore describes the bug-eyed Greys as being a negatively aligned group of Zetas (beings from Zeta Reticuli). This scenario is another popular explanation that exists within UFO mythos. In this explanation, the Zetas and Greys are the positive and negative sides of a single race of beings who destroyed the surface of their home planet in a nuclear civil war. As a result of the nuclear holocaust, the two sides — Zetas and Greys — were driven underground where they lost the ability to reproduce sexually. Also, as a result of their genetic engineering, they lost their emotional response system. Within this explanation, the abductions by Zetas and Greys are meant to extract genetic material in hopes of finding a way to preserve their dying species.

Alternately, I have also come across information from abduction experts who state that the Greys are actually biological constructs — soulless biological machines — created by a so-called Nordic race (human looking), possibly Pleiadian. I hope we’ll have a better understanding of the Zetas and the Greys in the coming weeks when we explore a book entitled The Zeta Message.

I think that it’s important, especially in light of the information discussed in the next section of this review, to read Extraterrestrial Vision in terms of whom the author is channeling. Since my feeling is that the information in this book is coming from those operating within the New World Order agenda, then it would seem important to place the information revealed within these pages in the context of that New World Order agenda. And the CIA’s MK-Ultra mind control program is a lynchpin in this agenda. In light of this, it is entirely possible that, in addition to the exopolitical crowd and general Ufonaut audience to which this book is primarily targeted, Extraterrestrial Vision is likely targeted to victims of the CIA’s MK-Ultra program as well. If the stories are true — that alien abduction scenarios were acted out during the traumatizing of MK-Ultra victims — then this book might serve to further perpetuate that myth.

At the moment, I don’t have enough information to draw a firm conclusion about who the Zetas and Greys truly are. The idea that they are soulless biological constructs created by a Nordic ET race (sometimes referred to as “Blondes”) seems quite possible.

“The service-to-self extraterrestrials are trying to undermine your confidence in your government and in your future.” (p66)

Denying the Conspiracy

The genius of disinformation is in determining how much true information to cast out there before the audience’s trust has been won. Extraterrestrial Vision deals with a few spiritual truths, describing a multi-dimensional universe in which souls can choose the path of separation (service-to-self) or the path of unity (service-to-others).

Theodore describes service-to-self entities and planets as “negative” and service-to-others entities are termed “positive.” Theodore goes on to describe the main group of galactic races involved with Earth since the dawn of humanity: Pleiadians, positive and negative Sirians, positive and negative Orions, Greys and Zetas.

And then I came across something that struck me as a bit out of place:

“The idea that a worldwide conspiracy exists that is both diabolical and invincible is an idea that only self-servers would cook up and only service-to-self planets have ever managed to manifest. This is one of their favorite ploys. They have used it on other planets throughout their history, and now they are using it on you. Fortunately, it rarely works because self-servers lack the organization — not to mention the numbers — to imprison races with these ideas. This plot has only been successful on service-to-self planets, not ones that have as many servers as yours.” (p66)

I found it very odd that an ET book would deny the Conspiracy. That a Conspiracy exists is, from my perspective, a closed book. It is only the degree to which the Conspiracy is able to exert its influence that is in any question.

Denying the existence of the Conspiracy seems again to serve a New World Order brainwashing agenda. I can easily see this being aimed towards both the general public as well as MK-Ultra victims.

“Much has been said about a world government by others, much of it controversial. What would a world government mean? Would it mean that Big Brother has come at last? Under your current consciousness, perhaps.” (p70)

New World Order

We’ve already seen the Pleiadians described as indistinguishable from Earth humans, and for that reason they are supposed to be the galactic ambassadors for first contact. First contact, this book describes, is something that will occur as part of the momentous 2012 consciousness shift. And then once that shift occurs, the ETs will be able to help us move into the golden age.

“Once enough of you have shifted consciousness, the Pleiadians will help you set up a new world order that is fair, democratic, compassionate and non-hierarchical.” (p70)

When this book was published in 1995, it was far easier to subliminally slip “new world order” into a paragraph. Perhaps the general public wasn’t paying as close attention to it then as we do now. Now, however, seeing that term is a red flag that speaks far louder than all of the previous red flags.

When I ran across “new world order,” the debate between whether this book is truth or disinfo was officially closed for me.

“NWO” pops up a couple more times in this book … as does plenty of talk about world government — and perhaps more importantly, Theodore states that the threat of the Greys will eventually unite humanity.

“The Greys’ biggest contribution, however, will be helping you come together as one people…A common enemy has served this purpose, time and time again, for other civilizations at a similar point in their evolution…After your experience with the Greys you will see your world differently.” (p117)

It’s important to note here one of the interviews from Dr. Steven Greer’s “Disclosure Project” DVD. One of the women interviewed was the former assistant to Werner Von Braun, the former Nazi rocket scientist who was brought to the U.S. after WWII and took America into space. During her interview, she said Von Braun told her that following the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Conspiracy would give us terrorism as a common enemy. And following terrorism, the Conspiracy would fake an alien invasion to help unite us towards world government — and the completion of the New World Order agenda.

“The positives will teach you what you need to overcome your self-induced pain.” (p170)

The Aliens Will Save Us

And finally, Extraterrestrial Vision discusses too often the notion of off-worlders teaching humanity how to move into the Golden Age. This kind of talk removes responsibility from the shoulders of humanity. Others will arrive to do the hard work for us.

But that is not how a species evolves. A species evolves by facing the hard times head on and finding the answers within. We are the only ones who will do the hard work of evolving into the next age. We have to figure it out for ourselves. And there won’t be a mass ET presence to rescue us from whatever reality we choose to create (unless, perhaps, we are about to nuke all life off the planet).

“Once enough of you have shifted consciousness, the Pleiadians will help you set up a new world order that is fair, democratic, compassionate and non-hierarchical.” (p70)

That is a nice thought, but relying on others to do the work we should be doing for ourselves is, in my opinion, a pre-shift level of consciousness. Those who shift their consciousnesses forward will be self-reliant and will act accordingly. We will responsibly create our own Golden Age.

“It is as natural to have a group policing an area of the universe as an area of the globe.” (p171)

Conclusion

Ultimately, the terms and the tone of this book were tossing one red flag at me after another. This book unfortunately sounds more like a mental softening for New World Order propaganda than genuinely helpful messages from wiser entities.

I’m actually glad that this book is the introduction to the “Alien Channeling” theme upon which we are about to embark because we have been given the opportunity to see what is, in my opinion, a clear example of deception at work. It will be important to see how the upcoming books compare … and if we can discern the truth.

Upcoming channeled books will feature entities from the Sirian, Pleiadian, Arcturian and Zeta Reticuli star systems.
