Making known the ‘stars’

Q: In our approach to the public and the media, should we speak more about the ‘star’ and the Space Brothers, in relation to the emergence of Maitreya?

A: As a member of this group, there is no difference in talking about the ‘star’ or about the reappearance of the Christ and the Masters of Wisdom. They are part of the same process. It is not one or the other; it is all part of a whole. It is the latest phase in a process that has gone on for years, by which Maitreya and the group of Masters Who are coming with Him re-enter openly the modern world. They have already been in position in the world for years. This is a new phase and the ‘star’ is there as a herald for Maitreya’s process of working openly, reaching humanity through radio and television.

The ‘star’, of course, is not a star. It is a spaceship, a UFO, an enormous spacecraft. The ‘usual’, ‘everyday’ scout-craft UFOs are only about 25 to 30 feet in diameter, which is big but not all that big. The ‘star’ is gigantic, the size of five football fields put together. If the reality of the ‘star’ can be presented to the public it does two things: it is a herald for Maitreya’s advent in the physical, everyday world, and is also proof of the reality of the Space Brothers. These ‘stars’ must have been made somewhere. I cannot prove to anyone that they were made on Mars and Venus, but that is my information, and I present it to anyone who wants to know. These two important things come together in this story: Maitreya’s approach to the public beginning with His coming on television in the very near future (although unannounced as Maitreya; He will use another name at first), and also the knowledge of UFOs as reality. You cannot talk about one without talking about the other.

[Note: Announced by Benjamin Creme at his public London lecture on 14 January 2010, Maitreya’s first television interview in the US has taken place. As we go to press Maitreya has given nine interviews.]

Q: There is a potential problem when contacting the media and astronomers when the ‘star’ is in the vicinity of a known celestial object (Venus or Jupiter, for example). This affects their acceptance of the phenomenon. Will this situation clarify with time?

A: No, I do not think it will. This is the age-old response of experts or anyone in authority. Whatever comes within the range of their particular discipline comes also within the range of their inhibitions, their credibility, antagonisms, predilections, their sense of knowing all about all in their own discipline.

You must remember that the idea that flying saucers exist has been debunked by most countries in the world through the world’s media. The media have shown their reluctance to make any clear-cut, unbiased investigation of this phenomenon for over 60 years. Nothing makes them change their approach today. More people than ever before, hundreds of thousands, have had experiences that leave them in no doubt that flying saucers exist. But for these experiences to be taken seriously and given solid confirmation by people in authority, to expect astronomers to give credence to this phenomenon, I will not say is foolish, but it would be approaching the miraculous. The media are not on your side. It is a struggle to make it known. But that does not mean you should give in or get aggressive. You should just plough on presenting information to the media. Already unofficial channels like YouTube are filled with stories of the ‘star’, some under the name Maitreya’s ‘Star’, others under the name of What is this Amazing Object? Is it a UFO? That is what we want to get across to the media. It does not have to be mainstream media in the first place, like CNN or something of that nature. But there was a report on CNN in Houston, Texas, I believe, in the very early weeks of the appearance of the ‘star’, when someone photographed it and sent the video in. They showed the video on television and I saw it myself on YouTube. It was quite clearly the ‘star’. They did not know what it was, but the woman presenter was thrilled with it. She was very congratulatory to the man who took the video because he had obtained a video of this extraordinary object. So it is possible to get the media to cover this story, although maybe not at a high level.


Behaviour of the ‘star’

Q: Does the ‘star’ change position and colour in such a subtle way so that it is gentle enough to alert people but not to frighten them so that it does not cause fear or panic?

A: Yes, precisely. That is the way the Space Brothers behave and the way they make crop circles, for example. They want to contact the Earth. They want to allow people to understand what they are doing, who they are and where they come from, but they know all the glamours of humanity. They know how easily we become afraid. They witness the fear in people. Very often when they come down in the night, people walking along a country path might come upon a saucer already landed and when they see it they are so terrified that they run.

This happens over and over again throughout the world. It is due to the fact they have been portrayed so adversely, so uncharacteristically, by government agencies and films as being horrible, neurotic, distorted minds performing obscure operations on poor innocent people, taking them up and putting needles and gadgets inside them in order to control them. Nothing could be further from the truth. They are entirely different in their behaviour, and do not want to frighten people. They have work to do. They would like us to know and acknowledge it and to know consciously what is happening, but they know they have to step warily. So they do their work ‘privately’, in such a way that you can make up your own mind. In this way your free will is left intact. They never infringe human free will.

Q: Are governments or media actively suppressing information about the ‘star’?

A: Governments are not suppressing information about the ‘star’, but some media definitely are. The attitude of the media is that there is not sufficient demand, not sufficient noise about it. They do not have enough information. They would like to send out their cameramen to photograph it, if only they knew where it would be, but they do not take the trouble to look for it. They want to know in advance where the ‘star’ will be on such and such a day, and their cameramen can go out and get a really first class film to show on television and it will be worthwhile. But, of course, that is not going to happen. No one can supply that information. That is one reason the media tend not to respond. They want it on a plate. They have always wanted this story on a plate. Likewise, if I had told them when Maitreya was coming on a particular programme they would all be there with their cameras. They would assess whether that person could be Maitreya or not, and in the end they would not know. So unlike is Maitreya to their idea of the Christ that they would probably just ignore that particular person as a possible Maitreya or Christ.

When He came to the office of the BBC, they rejected Him. He was in the office of the BBC in around 1986. He had interviews with the Director-General and colleagues. They were shown the last hours of Jesus on the cross as if they were there. They witnessed it. They saw it with their own eyes. They experienced it. They saw the agony, the blood, the people, all of that.

The Master Jesus was asked by Maitreya to come into the office and He came, so that they met the Master Jesus as well. They were asked and agreed to mount a big press conference at which Maitreya would appear, talk to the journalists and answer all their questions.

But they did nothing about it. Instead, they made the information known to the Queen who, as head of church and state, they thought should be the first to know. They probably knew what the Queen would do, which was to call on her advisors in the church, the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Bishops. They met, and their view was that there was no way that this could be the Christ without their knowing.

So there was a complete embargo on this information. That is why Maitreya had to take this long slow way round of nearly 30 years, working behind the scenes, gradually preparing the way, making it possible to come out now when a window of opportunity has been created with the collapse of the world’s economy, which He forecast in 1988.

There is no guaranteeing with media. You can put it in their lap and if it is not what they expect, they do not see it. They are frightened people. People in authority on the whole are frightened of this story. It upsets them to have to make any big decision around it. So it is better to leave it alone, not give it any kind of energy and just ignore it for as long as it can be ignored. If there is any truth in it, that will come out eventually. But they will not have their sense of security or the status quo altered. By all media logic this story should be as dead as a dodo. On the contrary it is more alive and consciously present in people’s minds than ever before. Why? Simply because it is true.

Q: In your talk you mentioned that the Space Brothers are gentle and subtle.

A: It is obvious by the way they have presented themselves through crop circles, crosses of light on buildings and so on, that they are capable of the most gentle type of approach. That is normally part of their way of doing it. They do not want to infringe human free will or create havoc. Their approach is tangential. They go about it very quietly, just showing you, if you have eyes to see and a mind to think with, that they have left their visiting card, clearly stating: “We are from space, the other planets of your system. We have come to help you. We are engaged in work on your behalf. Here is a sample of our work. We hope you like the ‘drawing’.” We have to ask where the crop circles come from. They appear in the middle of fields in Wiltshire and elsewhere, enormous things. They cannot be made by human hands and yet there is nothing to show how they were done. They are actually created in a few seconds, however big they are. The plan has already been drawn up, the machinery is set, and as the craft moves for a few seconds over a piece of ground, the turning, crossing and bending of the grass of the crop takes place automatically as they guide the craft in. It has all been planned in advance so that the craft will not do anything else. But it is quiet. Crops are seasonal and at the end of the season when the whole thing is cut down there is no sign of the crop circle. Some people say: “I have never seen a crop circle in my life. I know some people say there are circles, but I do not believe it.” People can say that because the crops have all been cut down when they visit. The Space Brothers work quietly. In that sense, I believe they are quiet. But when you work for the Space Brothers, you have to be dedicated to their work because they are without the ability to be tired. They are tireless in their devotion to helping Earth, and they expect those who work with them to be the same.
