ANCIENT ABDUCTIONS [15b]
Elista, Kalmikyia, Russia. July 16, 2007. The President of the Kalmykia Republic, Kirsan Ilyumzhinov, discloses in an international primetime television interview for Al Jazeera that nearly a decade prior he was abducted by extraterrestrials.
KIRSAN ILYUMZHINOV (video footage): I was taken by my apartment in Moscow to this spaceship. And we went to some star...and after that I ask them please bring me back.
“Ilyumzhinov claimed he’d been taken aboard a UFO by extraterrestrials dressed in these yellow outfits, and essentially sort of given a tour of the UFO onto which he was taken.” – Nick Redfern (Author, Memoirs of a Monster Hunter), |
“It’s never been clear exactly how long he was gone, but he said it was almost a day where he was taken far away…he said to another star, on this massive vessel. And this was his claim. And, it’s, I mean, an unbelievably outrageous claim. But the problem is that this is a man who is a very accomplished individual. And when you listen to him speak about this, he’s very open about it. He doesn’t sound crazy, except for the content of what he’s saying.” – Richard Dolan |
KIRSAN ILYUMZHINOV (video footage): They have the same mind. The same vision, and so on...and, we, I talked with them. I understand that we are not alone in this whole world.
“There’s an interesting theory about his story. Given his position and his standing within the government, when somebody like him speaks out, it actually adds a great deal of weight to the UFO subject. So, an argument was made that perhaps extraterrestrials abducted him with the very hope that he would go public with the story, expose more and more people to the existence of the UFO phenomenon.” – Nick Redfern (Author, Memoirs of a Monster Hunter), |
Ilyumzhinov is the highest profile individual to come forward with an admission of being abducted by extraterrestrials and subsequently returned to Earth. However, he is just one of tens of thousands of people that have made such claims, dating back to the infamous case of Betty and Barney Hill, who were allegedly abducted from their vehicle on a New Hampshire road in 1961. Purported extraterrestrial abductions involve men, women and children of various cultures and religious backgrounds.
“This is a global phenomenon. I’ve had people write to me from all around the world about their abduction events. It has nothing to do with countries and everything to do with being human.” – David M. Jacobs, Ph.D. |
“There are some themes in these abduction stories that are universal or at least recur. Some report being paralyzed. Many report shifts in time. Some lose vast amount of time.” – Jonathan Young, Ph.D. |
“It would be one thing if there were only ten or 20 abduction stories worldwide. The fact of the matter is that there are hundreds of thousands of abduction reports all around the world.” – Giorgio A. Tsoukalos |
“The real question we need to ask ourselves is not whether abduction is taking place. It’s very obvious that it’s taking place. We need to try to crack into the mystery and understand why this is happening. What makes us so interesting to these people that they want to be bringing us up there, performing what appear to be medical experiments, and then putting us back down on Earth?” – David Wilcock (Author/Filmmaker), |
Could it be that hundreds of thousands of people worldwide have been taken off-planet only to be placed back into society? But if so, for what purpose? Perhaps clues can be found by exploring the age-old accounts of human abductions by otherworldly beings that can be found in nearly every culture throughout the world.
“The stories of the representative of humanity who is taken to another place permeate mythic lore. This is a great universal story. We have Moses going up onto the mountain and getting the Commandments and bringing them down. We imagine they’re on tablets, and somehow this is going to be the guidance of the future of the people. The prophet Enoch, the prophet Ezekiel going up into the heaven and learning all of the things of heaven. The fairies or fae, in Celtic mythology, draw you into an adventure. Often, there is some seduction. Sometimes, it’s a demon who will force you away from your path into something, some kind of hell, but you somehow escape later and come back with new knowledge, new skills, new strengths.” – Jonathan Young, Ph.D. |
“What’s curious is, when we look at the situations, the stories as described in ancient literature, and looking at modern experiences interpreted as alien abductions, they seem to be identical. These stories, these legends have been around for centuries. They can’t all just be made up. There’s too many of them. They’re too prolific, they’re too widespread. There has to be some basis to them. For what purpose have these things been happening throughout history? Who knows?” – Rabbi Ariel Bar Tzadok (Founder, KosherTorah School) |
“Perhaps the most important thread that runs through the abduction stories is that all of these people are returned. They’re not kept. They’re allowed to come back. They are brought back. So, the question is: Why?” – Kathleen McGowan Coppens (Author/Researcher), |
Might what we refer to today as alien abductions trace back thousands of years? If so, are those that are returned part of a bigger extraterrestrial plan? Perhaps more evidence can be found by examining an ancient abduction that took place in the jungles of Southeast Asia.
Krong Siem Reap, Cambodia. 1860. A group of missionaries traveling through the Cambodian jungle stumble across the largest and most elaborate religious complex in the world. Angkor Wat. The Khmer people mysteriously abandoned the ancient site in the 15th-century. It was enveloped by the surrounding vegetation and lay forgotten for centuries. Archaeologists believe construction likely began under the rule of King Suryavarman II in 1116 AD. Cambodian lore credits its design to Preah Pisnokar, a half-human, half-divine architect who is said to have been taken off-planet and returned to Earth with the plans to build this advanced complex.
“Preah Pisnokar’s legend is one of the best stories you could ever imagine for the Ancient Astronaut Theory. Because in the legend, he is taken to what’s called Indra’s Heaven, that was orbiting the Earth as described in the ancient Vedic texts. When Preah Pisnokar first was introduced to go to Indra’s heaven, he was exposed to this blue light where he himself describes how he felt his entire body being rejuvenated. And the question is, could it be that, that was some type of a decontamination pod?” – Giorgio A. Tsoukalos |
“It’s quite curious that an ancient Cambodian legend like this would contain a scene where the main character has to go through some decontamination process, and one that’s done in space. It’s done in this celestial home of the gods.” – David Childress (Author, Technology of the Gods) |
“He underwent this intense education program and weeks later, he was rejoining his people, and he essentially imparted all this knowledge that was given to him by the extraterrestrials to his people.” – Giorgio A. Tsoukalos |
Upon his return, Pisnokar is said to have designed Angkor Wat. It was built as a replica of the heavenly original in anticipation of the return of the gods.
“He’s returned to the Earth to give humans all of this amazing knowledge, and to help humans advance. And, in his case, by building an amazing temple city that is one of the wonders of the world today.” – David Childress (Author, Technology of the Gods) |
“The one issue that people don’t focus on too much is the matter of the abductees being returned from where they were taken. We can look back in countless religious texts where contactees are given rules and regulations and ideas to follow in terms of elevating the human race. And sometimes they would build structures of the gods, doing their bidding, whatever that might be. It could well be an ongoing program that hasn’t stopped. It’s just that we don’t realize necessarily what’s going on.” – Nick Redfern (Author, Memoirs of a Monster Hunter), |
Is it possible that the story of Preah Pisnokar is true? Are select humans being taken off-planet and inserted back into society, even today? But if so, to what end? Perhaps more clues can be found by exploring the details of modern alien abductions
