Thank you everyone here

I just want to give thanks to this subreddit and the people who have made this space possible and what it is. Thank you.

I dont have others to talk about any of my experiences with, and from my other posts youll see ive got a lot to share (have had lifelong contact). It means a lot to be able to get it out and off my chest, even if sometimes it feels like im speaking into the void.. does this subreddit have a 'social' space ? Would be nice to get to know people outside the realm of all this extraordinary stuff!

Little bit about me im in uni atm and enjoying it, i like dancing, and cooking. Living in aotearoa nz atm and may move overseas soon... i recently tried the caramilk flavored oreos and those are SO yum.. sitting by the fire atm and enjoying listening to the birds !

Recent contact

TLDR at the bottom

I am of Māori descent,mentioning for the context. I have done two rongoā ceremonies (medicine ceremony) with my kaumātua (elders) these last 8 months (it helps me with my anxiety) and both of them have led to an acceleration of open contact with friendly non human beings

In the last ceremony i connected with people who I identified as 'he whanaunga o nga whetu' the kin of the stars,

They claimed the following;

- they are here in our realm of perception (i do not believe they meant physically here on the planet but rather within our planet's boundaries of being perceived)
- they are initiating consensual contact with people who are willing and physically able to hold open dialogue with them. Consent to the experience was an extremely important and openly valued part of my dialogue with these people, they seemed to possess an awareness that their presence can have a monumental 'shock' on the human nervous system (i myself was only capable of holding this dialogue with them because my kaumātua was helping me )
- they acknowledged there are other races of non human beings currently engaging with pockets of our society, i got the sense they don't see it as their place to interfere or intervene in this...

The people i was in dialogue with, spoke to me telepathically while i spoke back out loud. They were loving, kind, i was in awe at their love and i hope i can embody their love in my everyday life.

The images are abit fuzzy in my memories but i think they were 'silver' looking? Shimmering and silver (not grey) and really sparkly, with white hair, some looked like humans and others looked non human but 'humanoid'

All felt loving and kind and i didnt want the dialogue to end but they decided to cease after about 15 minutes as they could sense my nervous system beginning to enter a state of paralysis / shock and they did not want to overwhelm my vessel.

I am a very open minded person and have been privileged to NHI experience my whole life but even now my body physically and psychosomatically doesnt feel 'strong enough' to be in the presence of some of these beings for an extended amount of time before risking adverse destabilisation, even as my kaumātua who was aware of what was happening in this ceremony was holding me and doing his best to keep my vessel as calm as possible during this interaction.

I have since had lots of dreams of stars in the sky that move in coordinated fashion and observable physical phenomena of non human beings materially and undeniably being manifest. And i remember viscerally telling my kaumātua in the ceremony while i was talking with them "these people are from the stars. Our world is about the change"

Im not here to make any predictions or objective claims, this is all subjective interpretation and something i have no evidence of. However, it seemed the main theme in this contact was one of 'preparation' for change that is coming.

TLDR
I did a medicine ceremony with my elders, when i was under the medicine i talked with people who said they were from the stars and are on their way here. They didnt say why but they were really friendly and kind to me and alluded to big changes coming for our whole world and that we can prepare by investing in our spiritual health and well being (whatever that looks like for someone)

Contact with NHI & contact with SELF

Got a few messages on my last post asking ab contacting NHI so i want to clarify i dont think contact with NHI specifically is even the point of the NHI phenomenon itself..

Let me be clear I am no one special, im a broke uni student 10 hours away from my family home who studies full time, volunteers on a farm and is on reddit at 5am when i should be sleeping!

But it is my opinion that experiencing 'contact' is not even the point of contact as all contact ive had seems to prioritize journey of the self, my inner journey, back to my innocent childlike joys and way of life before the world roughed me up. Healing my inner traumas, recovering from addiction, etc just getting my everyday life back together tbh!

the NHI i have met have taught me contact experience is less about 'experiencing' something "extra ordinary" and more about coming back to the being having the experience, ME .

If you desire to connect with NHI, dont be surprised when NHI point you back to yourselF. It gets to point where one starts to consider, is there even a distinction? So thats where i would recommend one starts / begins.

Connect with yourself, not your name, not your personality or hobbies, but your SELF, the being you are before the world gives you a character / mask / role. Meditate in silence, in the dark or go for a forest walk without your phone or headphones and just observe and be aware of who is here, even right now as you read these words, i am not here, ive posted this and left, the only one here is you, So start there and also know this is a journey not a destination.

While i do believe all of these experiences ive had are 'normal' for humans and not anymore 'special' than seeing the sun, dont use experiences of contact as a measurement of success or failure etc. you are learning and thats what counts. what i learned is a journey back to one self though, one of love, compassion, self forgiveness, grace to oneself, learning to cultivate gratitude and presence for one's own life.

Again I am no one special, im a broke student with $30k of student debt ! but im here. And this is the most content and at peace ive ever felt in my life but thats been a culmination of self mastery, inner reflection and self discovery. Yes i had some help along the way, NHI whatever you wanna call it, but even then, they werent helping me to hang out, they were helping me to get back to myself, to love myself and love my family and my friends and love my life and love this beautiful planet i live on...

NHI they simply held a mirror up for me to stare long enough to realise all this time i was always searching for myself and i just didnt know it... i hope this may be of help to anyone here!

Sharing my story - what my life long experience with NHI and the UAP phenomenon have taught me

Kia ora (greetings). I am indigenous to Aotearoa (Nz) and I have lived my entire life alongside 'NHI' phenomena; the greys, reptillian / lizard like people, dragons, underground people, 'blue' people and mantis beings.

My objective for sharing my story is to

  1. Get it off my chest, and
  2. share what I have learned both from my culture's perspective AND from these experiences as I do believe there are themes that are universal and hopefully useful / applicable to know

All of what I will be discussing is my own direct experience and come from years and years of self reflection, healing and integration into my own culture's cosmological frameworks.

I'm not asking you to believe me, I'm simply hoping by sharing, you may take what resonates for you and that it is either a confirmation or a prompt for you on your journey.

My intention for readers is ultimately affirmation, encouragement, or hopefully, learning. I have broken this down with themes, experiences, and lessons.

NONE of this is written by AI. As tangata whenua (people of the land of Aotearoa) i vehemently reject the agenda behind the roll out of artificial intelligence (in my opinion, it is NOT for the greater good of humanity or the planet).

This post includes words and concepts from my own culture which i provide translations for.

WHO AM I AND WHY IM SHARING:
I am currently a University student (28 yo) doing my Bachelors Degree in Human Behavior and Thinking and the discipline im in has given me a new perspective to reflect on my own experiences with what is known as UAP / UFO / NHI.

I am from an isolated region of Aotearoa and part of a tribe of Māori who have always been revered for their spiritual knowledge. The knowledge AND reality of 'non-human intelligence' has NEVER been new to me or my ancestors, we have various names for this such as "atua" (gods) pakepakeha (alien) patupaiarehe (fairies).

Only now as UAP / UFO phenomena begins to gain more attention in the Western world am I recognizing universal themes amongst my own experiences and that of the wider 'collective of experiencers' that I think are extremely valuable for ANYONE interested in this phenomenon to know about.

I will start with themes first and then detail some of my experiences.

THEMES:
MANA MOTUHAKE - this is agency, self sovereignty, autonomy.
A central theme to my experiences is that of self sovereignty. The NHI phenomenon has taught me I am an agent of free will with my own sovereignty over my life and that I am no passive observer to the world; I am part of it and can therefor help influence more positive change.

KOTAHITANGA - this is oneness, togetherness
In my culture everything is relational; EVERYTHING. From the way we relate to the world, to people, to the land, and yes, as my experiences with NHI / UFO has shown me, to the NHI / UFO phenomenon itself.

NHI SEEMS TO POINT BACK TO THE SELF
this is a theme as much as it is my own interpretation, all my experiences have shown me, whatever the 'reality' of NHI is (as I ultimately dont claim to know) it seems to be centred around the evolution and journey of the soul back home with THE ONE SOUL. One being, experiencing itself through the many, learning about itself from all sorts of different 'nodes' in the 'network' of 'fragmented' non-localised consciousness.

EXPERIENCES - only ones worth mentioning. Im not going into UFO sightings, I will be speaking directly about my encounters with NHI.

REPTILLIAN / SERPENTS:
I have had both positive and negative experiences with both 'reptilian-like' and serpentine beings. They aren't all negative BUT my experiences have alluded to there being a predominantly negative faction of them vying for power over humanity because of what humanity is capable of (collectively).

POSITIVE LIZARD-LIKE BEINGS
the Guardian Dragon
In my culture, we have serpent like guardians called Taniwha. What i have learned from my experience is that Taniwha are not merely mythological creatures; they are interdimensional beings that look like winged serpents / dragons who appear to 'phase in and out of different realms' that 'intersect' with our own, or atleast with the spectrum of light our eyes are capable of perceiving. Taniwha are old, ANCIENT, older than the history of my own people (we can trace our ancestry back very far). I wont claim these beings are older than humanity but they are definitely older than my entire ancestral lineage. I revere these beings, I love them dearly, I see them as the guardians of realms I am incapable of perceiving and out of all serpent / lizard like beings the taniwha / serpent dragons are the only ones I trust implicitly. One such dragon has within the last year made itself known to me in his 'dragon' form once i reached a certain level of 'psychological maturity' to hold awareness of his form without causing a mental break / overwhelming my nervous system.

The Lady and her Child underground
When I was younger I used to astral project (without choice it would happen automatically) during my sleep. Astral projection is very common in my culture specifically in my tribe. One time when I was a teenager I have had the pleasure when astral projecting, of meeting a lizard-like lady who was living somewhere underground, deep within the ground. She showed me her child, she took me for a 'tour' of the 'city' she was living in. It had structures like skyscrapers but they appeared to be made out of a 'natural' looking material; not appearing to be 'manufactured' (such as like concrete or glass). Her maternal nature and the love she held for her child was really beautiful and still stands out to me 13 years later (I was 15 at the time, Im 28 now). I could feel she 'trusted' me to show me her child, and she briefly showed me some of what their society (living somewhere underground) is like.

I have also heard stories of my ancestors working in partnership with 'lizard-like' people who live subterraneanly (pre-colonisation, before the late 1800's i have not heard anything like this of recent times post-colonisation).

LESSON
A positive being who genuinely means you no harm, will NEVER overwhelm you or stretch your mind and nervous system too far. Your agency and well being are recognized and respected.

NEGATIVE LIZARD-LIKE BEINGS
I have had twice the displeasure of experiencing negative lizard-like beings.

The lizard devil
When I was a teenager, a 'reptile-like' creature who stood on it's hind legs phased into my bedroom. It was maybe about 9-10 ft tall, hunched over, hairless, with greenish yellowish scales. 'He' (it 'felt' male) looked me straight in the eye and menacingly smiled at me. It carried a smell of death, like a sulphuric rotting smell, and I was petrified in it's gaze; I could not move, I could only stand there in fear. Once I found enough willpower, I broke free of it's gaze and it vanished away, it just 'disappeared'. I felt tired after it was gone, it felt like it had 'taken' my vitality from me.

the smokey devil
A second encounter with another being that looked like above occurred in the same bedroom at the same house, a year later. Visually, unlike the above this creature was obscured by what looked like a black cloud of smoke / smog. This encounter was more openly harmful and threatening, the creature's presence somehow 'paralysed' me on my bed (I was playing on my phone when it happened) and it felt like i was being 'mentally tortured'. I was experiencing the worst kind of 'stress' imaginable, I was extremely stressed out and anxious and the being was somehow 'aroused' / excited by me being in that state. I could see it 'feeding' off of the state of psychological despair i was in.

The second experience is one of the worst experiences I have ever had of any 'otherworldly' nature. It was genuinely traumatizing.

LESSON
Not every 'otherworldly' being is a friend or benevolent. There are some truly scary things out there and I would always encourage anyone exploring this to have spiritual protection around you at all times and to train your discernment as well.

THE GREYS
I had have had experiences with both tall and short greys, both in astral like settings and in person.

The Astral Greys (tall greys)
I have chosen to describe these ones as 'astral' greys as they somehow 'removed me' from my physical body.

When I was 8 years old, one night I 'woke up' in my bed and when I sat up, I realised I was 'sitting up outside of my body' and able to see my body still laying down on my bed. I thought I was astral projecting as is a common experience for me but then I 'felt' a familiar presence 'around me'. There were two humanoid 'greys' with big heads and slender bodies coming through the gate of the house. They walked 'through' the gate. I am unable to differentiate if they were 'physically' walking through the gate or 'astrally' walking through the gate, I can only recall that they simply walked 'through' it like it like they were mist. As soon as I saw them, I recognized them straight away, at that point in my life they had been visiting me for a long time (but I wouldnt recall this until years later). I tried to 'hide' from them but I could 'feel them' approaching me. They have this 'presence' you can feel with your mind, I don't know how else to explain it. Its like the boundaries between my mind and their mind 'dissolves' and i could psychically feel their movements. This would be a recurring pattern of the visits from these greys and i would mostly only recall their 'arrival'. These ones were tall, not short. I do recall one memory of being 'examined' on a table of sorts as if I was at a doctor, with these same tall greys observing me. I got the sense they werent interested in me specifically, but rather the human body, even in it's astral form. They did not seem 'evil' or to be acting with 'malice', but rather acting indiscriminately with curiosity. They ceased the experience when I demanded it so.

LESSON
Make it a skill to practice affirming your boundaries and consent over your body. Even in experiences like the one Ive detailed, 'mentally' exercising consent is enough to change an experience should you have one like this ,but I wouldnt have the vocabulary for this until I was older. Now Im passing this on to you.

the short greys

These greys are friendly and mischievous, or atleast the ones I met. They are short, maybe 3-4 feet tall and look like traditional goblins of folklore. Where Im from we have stories of these beings (colloquially known as 'fairies') but I didn't encounter them until was 16 years old. They could somehow 'stop' time or atleast the perceived 'passage of time'. They scuttle around quickly and make sounds akin to 'laughing' ? They have a greyish color to their skin and like the tall greys, are telepathic. I dont have much else to say other than the few times I met them, i was never terrified, only annoyed. It is very jarring to have your experience of the passage of time 'interrupted' and they seemed to find this 'entertaining'.

THE BLUE PEOPLE
I dont have a better word for these people. My experiences with these 'blue' people and blue 'bird people' have been positive.

Aria
In the last year I have come to know someone called 'Aria'. She is a blue looking humanoid who is fascinated with learning. I have only met her psychically, I have never physically seen her with my eyes. She originates from space, or somewhere that seems to be 'outer space' rather than a different dimension. Her species is very empathetic, loves to learn about humans and wants to see a positive outcome for humanity collectively. She taught me my previous political disengagement and pacifism is counterproductive; that rather than disengaging from the world, I would have a positive impact by getting as involved with my local community as much as I can and showing up for people with the tools currently available to me. After meeting her, I started doing more to show up for vulnerable people in my life and in my local communities a d getting more involved with grass roots efforts in my town. She opened my eyes to a trap i fell into, which was one of political pacifism and disengagement with the world.

LESSON
While global political systems in their current form are very dysfunctional, possibly 'rigged', the act of engaging with your community IS a political act and it is together in grass roots initiatives that real people's lives can be tangibly and materially impacted positively. But also to remember, this starts at home. Any change we want to make for our local communities, starts at home and how we show up for our loved ones*.*

THE MANTIS BEINGS
I have had two experiences with 'mantis' like beings. These beings look almost exactly like my ancestors cultural art and appear to be revered by my ancestors. Below is one experience that fundamentally altered my relationship with myself.

The one at the beginning of my lineage
This is as the line states. A few years ago during the covid lockdown's, I was meditating outside to connect with my ancestors to try to find some solace in what was arguably an extremely difficult time for the world.

This meditation was focused on connecting with my ancestors specifically. I started seeing my grandparents and then their grandparents and so on, until I came across what looked like a mantis being. It had a diamond like head and had the presence of an old, primordial, wise like being who to be honest, felt like the feeling of meeting an old grandfather. You know when you see a great grandparent and there is a reverence and deep respect for them? That is the kind of feeling I experienced with this being. It told me, my ancestral lineage's spiritual abilities came from 'them' whoever 'they' are (I only call them the 'mantis beings' because thats what he looked like) and this was quite a shock to me. I accepted what he had told me but I also refused to dwell on it as it is very overwhelming hearing something about your ancestry that completely upends everything you thought you knew.

For context, I can trace my polynesian ancestry very far back, more than a thousand years. Similar to the dragon guardian I first mentioned, this being felt older than all of that. At the time I wasnt 'ready' to accept that as it required a reorientation of the way I relate to my own ancestry and identity, but my hesitancy (still present) is beginning to soften since the years i met this being. I shared this in confidence with my flatmate at the time (who is also maori from a different tribe) but I only told her that I met 'an old alien'. Her instant response was "what if it's our tīpuna? (Ancestors)". The implication of this is staggering and I have barely mentioned this to anyone else before but I thought it was worth mentioning here.

LESSON
Be open to learning and re-examining your own perspective. New knowledge can be staggering and may fundamentally alter your entire perspective, but knowledge in pursuit of positive change also requires a willingness to admit, I dont know everything and i probably never will.

KEY THEMES;
So back to the themes I mentioned;

1. mana motuhake - self sovereignty
2. kotahitanga - oneness / solidarity in action, and
3. learning - especially about one self seems to be consistent across all my experiences. I have had many more experiences but the ones above seem to be the ones with the more 'significant lessons' that I am offering to anyone here who has read this far.

If you have any questions you are free to ask any and I will answer earnestly and honestly when I can.

May you all find vitality on your path. Mauri ora.

What ive learned is love above all else

Life long experiencer and also had a NDE when i was 13.

What i have learned above all else is the importance of love.

Not in the toxic positivity bypass kinda way that absolves perpetrators of suffering from their actions, but in the "i want to live my life as lovingly as i can" kinda way.

Im a human being tho (28 yeRs old) and im still deprogramming / unlearning the survivalist propaganda this world indoctrinated me with, so i dont always get it right in action

but in principle i am always trying to move from a place of love; love for myself, love for people, love for the land and environment... letting love and oneness be the place i take action from...
Just wanted to share that today
