Lightquest: Your Guide to Seeing and Interacting With UFOs, Mystery Lights and Plasma Intelligences

by Andrew Collins, Gregory L. Little (Introduction)

LightQuest is a startling new way to embrace and investigate the UFO phenomenon. Since the modern flying saucer era began in 1947 we have been conditioned to see UFOs as interplanetary craft and their occupants either as intergalactic ambassadors or invaders from space. Tales of crashed saucers, ancient aliens, crop circles, and alien abductions dominate UFO literature and media presentations, but has this led us astray? Evidence now points to UFOs, mystery lights, and alien intelligences being far more exotic than we have ever imagined. They now can be seen as sentient energy forms and complex plasma constructs manifestations of a higher dimensional reality that has co-existed with the human race since time immemorial, and was in the past seen as the Realm of Faerie. This book embraces a new understanding of the UFO phenomenon by accepting that its existence is deeply rooted in everything from quantum entanglement to multi-dimensional experiences, strange worlds that interpenetrate our own, and psychic communications. Even the alien abduction is described, defined and clearly understood for the first time. LightQuest is also a field guide to some of Britain and the United States' top UFO hotspots: where to go, what to do, and what exactly you might expect to see there. It also includes a creative visualization to be used by light questers worldwide to commune with the light intelligences in the hope of drawing them into manifestation. Some of the locations detailed include: Roswell, NM; Piedmont. MO; Marfa, TX; Allagash, ME; Brown Mountain, NC; Indian Head Rock, NH; Yakima/Mt. Adams, WA; Avebury, UK; Alton Barnes, UK; Warminster, UK; Aveley, UK; Peak District, UK; Rendlesham, UK; and the Dove Dale Valley, UK. Heavily illustrated throughout with numerous maps, photos and illustrations and includes an 8-page 24 color photo insert. Contains an extensive Introduction by Dr. Gregory L. Little that details the first university-based scientific field study of UFOs (researching UFO manifestations in Missouri as they actually occurred). This study, conducted in the 1970s, took place over 7 years and included over 35 physical scientists, engineers, and others utilizing sophisticated instrumentation. Nearly 160 viewing stations were employed and 157 documented sightings of 178 different UFOs were made. In addition, scientific studies of the Yakima, WA UFO reports are detailed along with the UK s Ministry of Defence Project Condign Report. UFOs are real, but they are something far more intriguing than beings from other worlds. The reality of UFO experiences is undeniable-but our interpretations of them have been marred by the UFO field insisting that they must be extraterrestrial craft.

Lightquest by Andrew Collins and Gregory L.little is an unconventional look into the UFO phenomenon and explores the possibility that the UFO phenomenon isnt nuts and bolts at all and could well be related to orbs which are so commonly sighted by countless unsuspecting witnesses. Many of the cases come from the UK in and around Avebury among other sacred sites where Collins and little make their case for the unexplained phenomenon. There are some really interesting cases within this thought provoking book and one such case grabbed me so much that I contacted the witness and met with him in Wiltshire. I won't give away too many spoilers but if you want an alternative view on the ever present phenomenon then I recommend you to pick this book up which also has a lovely made cover by the way. In my opinion the book does require a patient reader and does take it's time in getting across what it wants to say. It was a nice alternative as I've said and is a nice addition to my collection but probably wouldn't re-read it if I'm totally honest, it's more of a go to refresher for me if I'm researching an area of interest and want to remind myself of dates,time and place.

The best thing about Lightquest is the cover art; now if only rhetorical flourishes could be made to pass as evidence for anything, but alas, Collins proves nothing and explains even less in this book about the morphology of UFOs and when he tries to convince his hapless readers that geological flatulence creates multi-dimensional bubble universes entangled on a quantum level with the collective unconscious he comes across like a barker for The Sun trying to explain the mystery of Transubstantiation in terms of molecular biology.

For shame. Collins is a much better writer than that.

Maybe he should stick to folklore, myth, and archaeological anomalies? All he does here though is explain away every conceivable interaction with unidentified aerial phenomena as being nothing more than the ill effects of sentient plasma on that which passes for human awareness without bothering to trouble himself with explaining the one or the other, either plasma or sentience. It gets a mite tedious, really. After a while one wants nothing more than to apply Occam’s razor to all of that quantum quack bubble-stubble and get back to the wholesome simplicity of the alien agenda. At least you can toss a brick at the local Greys.

What I find rather puzzling is that Collins, who is familiar with the mythopoesis of Kenneth Grant, knows full well how to mix apples with oranges with hyperspace doorknobs in a good and proper sort of way. In other words, if you are going to explain an unknown something doing who knows what for no reason known to either “gods or men” then have at it, but please don’t make yourself simply laughable by assuming that what esoteric philosophy mean by higher dimensions has anything whatever to do with what scientists mean by that term. You simply can’t have it both ways, because the problem lies with the middle term. It’s bad form to translate one reality in terms of another when the only thing that ties them together is a greater unknown. The Inquisition tried telling Galileo that -- “leave off mate”. Leave science to the scientists and theology to the priests otherwise you are going to end up with a hybrid literalism as pernicious as the one you are trying to counter.

Better yet, do away with so called “physical reality” altogether by redefining it as anything other than the blessed sanctuary of bourgeois prejudice that it has come to be and bring back a bit of the mystery and wonder you are so good at presenting in most all of your other books.
