As we go past the rabbit hole and sit drinking tea with the Mad Hatter who has studied many years in his evaluation of dreams and the human psyche we find Arthur C. Clarke explaining a common myth and CONstruct - the alien influence and Christian devil (worship - for any power given to such images amounts to worship).
"The very different psyche belongs to Arthur C. Clarke, who was originally an astrophysicist and later became famous as a science-fiction writer. Clarke is a man of science and famously anti-religious. For example, the N.Y. Times quoted him as saying: “Religion is a byproduct of fear. For much of human history, it may have been a necessary evil, but why was it more evil than necessary? Isn't killing people in the name of God a pretty good definition of insanity?”6 In other words, Clarke’s worldview is in dramatic contrast to the probable worldview of the Christian woman whose dreams we just looked at. Also, science fiction, a form that is consciously created with much effort during waking hours, would seem to be a very different source than dreams, which erupt spontaneously from the unconscious.
Clarke is best known for the novel and Stanley Kubrick film, 2001: A Space Odyssey. 2001 is one of the most brilliant visions of the Singularity Archetype, and it will be considered in depth later in the book, but presently we are going to consider an earlier example of Clarke's work, the classic science-fiction novel, Childhood's End. Science fiction is obviously a very different medium than dreams. But like dreams, science fiction is also a fertile and open imaginal realm where the collective unconscious can communicate with modern persons, and a new mythology, however unrecognized, can express itself. Since Childhood’s End is as profound a manifestation of the Singularity Archetype as I’ve ever encountered, we’ll give it a correspondingly more thorough look.
Childhood's End begins with extraterrestrial spacecraft appearing over the world’s capitals. Beings from within these craft break through all communications and announce that they are "the Overlords" and have come to establish peace on earth. They claim to be superior beings who wish to establish peace and prosperity on earth through the formation of a world government, maintained by their supreme authority. They ask to be thought of as civil servants rather than dictators. In fact, they do advance man’s material contentment, with the major religions standing as their only organized opposition. The Overlords succeed in establishing peace on earth and, excepting military aggression, do not curtail any human freedoms. To all appearances the Overlords are benevolent, but they remain a great unknown: “Speculations concerning the Overlords were pure guesswork. No one knew their motives; and no one knew toward what future they were shepherding mankind.”
Much of the continuing distrust of the Overlords stems from the fact that they will not appear in public or even offer a description of their physical form. Eventually they promise to reveal themselves after two generations–fifty years.
These fifty years pass peacefully for the human species. Thanks to the Overlords, mankind has entered a golden age of affluence and everyone eagerly awaits the day when the Overlords will descend to earth and reveal themselves. When the long-anticipated day arrives the great spacecraft descend. With some ceremony, the Overlords emerge, and to the uneasy surprise of the human species their appearance is revealed:
“The leathery wings, the little horns, the barbed tail–all were there. The most terrible of all legends had come to life out of the unknown past. Yet now it stood smiling, in ebon majesty, with the sunlight gleaming upon its tremendous body . . .” (65).
This decidedly mythological element is fascinatingly incongruous with the setting of technological materialism stereotypical of the science-fiction genre. What is the meaning of a specter from the Christian and pagan past reemerging in the world of the future? Clarke reveals that the Overlords’ alarming physiognomy is simply the result of their evolutionary adaptation to the environmental conditions of their planet. The Overlords are actually perfectly benevolent and are far more rational and intelligent than humans. The novel explains their physical appearance as “a racial memory of a future event,” accounting for their cross-cultural appearance in legend and myth. In other words, their physical form and association with evil is an archetype, but also a premonition. The association with evil, furthermore, is not a reflection of the Overlord’s nature, as they are in fact benevolent, but rather a result of the event horizon of total transformation that the Overlord’s arrival signifies. The instinctive and premonitory fear of the Overlord’s physical form derives from the conservatism of an established genome recognizing that metamorphosis means the obsolescence and extinction of the species in its old form.
The Overlords are servants of the "Overmind," a cosmic intelligence permeating the universe that is Clarke's naturalistic God concept. The Overmind employs the Overlords as midwives. When the Overmind senses that an intelligent species is about to cross the evolutionary event horizon and make the jump into higher consciousness, it sends the Overlords to their planet to supervise the process. This evolutionary process is volatile and unstable, and if not properly supervised could result in disastrous consequences whose effects would reach far beyond the particular world on which the process occurs.
The Overlords, though infinitely superior to humans in every perceivable attribute, are themselves barren and unable to manifest the evolutionary birth process that it is their perpetual task to oversee. As one of the Overlords, Rasheverak, explains:
"Probably, like most men, you have always regarded us as your masters. That is not true. We have never been more than guardians, doing a duty imposed upon us from–above. That duty is hard to define: perhaps you can best think of us as midwives attending a difficult birth. We are helping to bring something new and wonderful into being. [. . .] Yes, we are the midwives. But we ourselves are barren" (178).
Karellan, the chief Overlord, in a final speech to mankind, adds:
"Our intellects are far more powerful than yours, but there is something in your minds that has always eluded us. [. . .] Our races have much in common–that is why we were chosen for this task. But in other respects, we represent the ends of two different evolutions. Our minds have reached the end of their development. So, in their present form, have yours. Yet you can make the jump to the next stage, and therein lies the difference between us."
"We are your guardians–no more. Often you must have wondered what position my race held in the hierarchy of the universe. As we are above you, so there is something above us, using us for its own purposes. We have never discovered what it is, though we have been its tool for ages and dare not disobey it. Again and again we have received our orders, have gone to some world in the early flower of its civilization, and have guided it along the road that we can never follow–the road that you are traveling now."
"Again and again we had studied the process we have been sent to foster, hoping that we might learn to escape form our limitations. But we have glimpsed only the vague outlines of the truth. You called us the Overlords, not knowing the irony of that title. [. . .] Let us say that above us is the Overmind, using us as the potter uses his wheel."
"And your race is the clay that is being shaped on that wheel."
An interesting aspect of the evolutionary model presented in Childhood’s End is that intelligence is not the decisive factor catalyzing the evolutionary event horizon. The Overlords are well aware of this and recognize that it is parapsychological abilities that are more essential to the metamorphosis. Karellan makes this explicit in his final speech:
"Your mystics, though they were lost in their own delusions, had seen part of the truth. There are powers of the mind, and powers beyond the mind, which your science could never have brought within its framework without shattering it entirely. All down the ages there have been countless reports of strange phenomena–poltergeists, telepathy, precognition–which you had named but never explained. At first science ignored them, even denied their existence, despite the testimony of five thousand years. But they exist, and, if it is to be complete, any theory of the universe must account for them.""

The crystal skulls in Indiana's pursuits (and others) are excellent mind candy. Skulls have indeed been a major force in this world for over a million years. If you read about the Hexham Heads you will begin to grasp the forces at work - if you don't buy into the conscious demons full of evil crap. My book on Demonology is a good start which covers Dr. Robins books and serious scientific research including The Dragon Project.
The extent of miss-story and brainwashing around us is surpassed only by (or is that because of) the lack of wisdom acquisition being taught in schools. There is a connection. There is also a connection between SRI and the kids who wasted a bunch of people in a movie theatre in Colorado a few years ago - their father worked as a researcher on the mind control efforts there. That is a lot more than the Columbine kids whose father was a Mason, but they went deeper and almost got to the origin of a lot of what is coded into our social practices or Catholic dogma. They were at least heard talking about Aristotle and Plato. Yes, Aristotelian logic and rituals of occult matters was put into the Church by Thomas Aquinas (I have explained in other threads.) and Thomists are still the major philosophical force inside that church. The fact that the media 'experts' have not explained any of it - is evidence of a cover-up even though I sometimes wonder if Ingo Swann's firing was the end of any real insight inside the bureaucracy.
This link is more black and white dualistic jargon which has an agenda or is the effluent of religious brainwashing. It does do some good research on the VRIL maidens you have seen represented in Indiana Jones movies.

Do you think science will be able to send sentient robots which have a human being's brain contents through time or at faster-than-light speed?
It is a way to explain many things I have learned and experienced.
In my book Chichen Itza - Time: I recount how I was sent a message to a turned off computer while I was away seeing the Pyramid at Chichen Itza. It was not in the e-mail area, it was in personal files. The message was the first page of a treatise on Time Travel by a person who I could find no evidence existed. Here is a report which validates this as a possibility.
"According to the physicists’ calculations, the Higgs singlet may be able to travel in a fifth dimension (a dimension beyond our four-dimensional universe). But for this theory to hold true, our universe needs to abide by the laws of “M-theory,” a theory that requires there to be 10 or 11 dimensions (basically an extension of string theory).
In M-theory, our Universe is only one of many universes that can be envisaged as layers of an onion skin, each layer being a different universe. The skin that represents our Universe is known as a “brane” and it is stacked atop other branes as part of the “bulk.”
In the bulk, some forces, such as gravity, are predicted to permeate from one brane to the next. The details of M-theory are complex, and as yet unconfirmed, but the high-energy collisions inside the LHC may produce artifacts (such as short-lived micro-black holes) that reveal the presence of these predicted extra dimensions.
So, assuming M-theory describes the real nature of our Universe, how could we detect a Higgs singlet? If this particle only travels in a fifth dimension, time in our Universe isn’t of consequence to that particle, so it could be created by the LHC in the fifth dimension, and when it decays, its “decay particles” (i.e. everyday particles that the Higgs singlet will create after it dies) will be detected at an arbitrary time.
This arbitrary time could be in the past, before the particle was even generated, or even in the future. Therefore, if physicists see particles spontaneously pop into existence before an LHC collision even occurs, that could be indicative of the Higgs singlet decay particles appearing in our universe. Simple!

But what of the Grandfather Paradox? If a Higgs singlet can pop into existence before it is created, wouldn’t that cause all kinds of kinks in the space-time continuum?
“One of the attractive things about this approach to time travel is that it avoids all the big paradoxes,” Weiler said. “Because time travel is limited to these special particles, it is not possible for a man to travel back in time and murder one of his parents before he himself is born, for example. However, if scientists could control the production of Higgs singlets, they might be able to send messages to the past or future.”
So, the upshot is that a person couldn’t go back in time to kill his or her grandfather (because only Higgs singlets have time-traveling abilities). But, if an assassin could manipulate a signal consisting of time-traveling Higgs singlets, they could send a message to someone else to kill their (or someone else’s) grandfather!"
