I spent the 4th of July weekend at James Gilliland’s Science, Spirit and World Transformation Conference at his ranch in Trout Lake, WA. 250 attendees joined Dr. Miceal Ledwith of What the Bleep and orb fame, Brooks Agnew and I, among other speakers, as we presented work on contact with other dimensions.
I’ve known James for nearly 10 years and have been intrigued by the enigmatic happenings at his ranch all this time. It's located at the base of Mt. Adams in the southern part of Washington. Local Indian legend says this mountain is a portal to an inner earth city(!). Perhaps this explains why the 'veil' is said to be thinner here.
Visitors to Gilliland's ranch routinely report - and document - strange light phenomenon in the skies about his ranch such as massive amounts of those perplexing orbs and oddly behaving lights in the night sky. This was my chance to experience these luminous ships or 'craft'.
During the day we enjoyed the presentations in the building with comfortable seating for 300 James constructed for the streams of people who make their way to ‘Gilliland’s Island’. The air is fresh and clean here, a relief for city lungs. The scenery is pristine, bald eagle country. The rushing White Salmon River lays a pleasing, subliminal layer of cleansing sound. The place feels…well, wild. Even more, it feels… that’s it, alive.
“LIGHTS ON THE MOUNTAIN!”
At dusk 200 or so of us took a lawn chair to the empty field in front of James’ ranch. I was told to expect anything.
The first night felt similar to the moment I experienced a week later at the Robert Plant and Allison Krauss concert in Chastain Park in Atlanta. As dusk descended we lucky ones dropped into our seats (ours were 7th row) and waited for night’s curtain to rise and for the players to emerge. Then, from out of the amorphous otherworld, stepped the tall, cool one, known as Percy (like the Grail King) in his Led Zep days, and the bluegrass siren who plays the fiddle like the devil. They lifted and suspended us into a time and space only troubadours can.
Within minutes of first darkness at James’ the anticipation quickened the night. Suddenly, I saw a FLASH near the center of the misty mountain. Others saw it too. There was a sudden jolt of acknowledgment. “Lights on the mountain! Lights on the mountain!” They shouted.
What? Was that light unusual? I wondered.
When I asked James about it later he gave me lots of food for thought. First, he said, Mount Adams is 17 miles away from his ranch. It’s uninhabited (by humans). There are no roads winding on its skin. No one is up there.
So, then, what was that light?
James told me about an experiment some clever investigators conducted regarding that light. They took a high watt light up the mountain to the approximate place where the lights are often seen from James’ place. When lit this light appeared to be about the size of a match to a person standing at James’ ranch. A mathematician calculated that the lights flashing on the mountain are over a quarter mile wide!
No wonder the light on the mountain raised the energy level that night. Little did I know, this was only the beginning.
“POWER UP! POWER UP!”
The primal urge to experience something mind-blowing increased each night I was there. So too did a sense of urgency. No doubt, the ticking clock fueled this. I had to experience something before I left on Monday.
All signs were positive. My friend, the inventor John Riley, brought an experimental energy technology designed to act like an energy beacon for those scooting by overhead. Numerous people assured me that seeing extraordinary lights was commonplace in this special place.
As I thought about it later this ‘event’ was kind of like a sporting event. There were the tailgaters over at the picnic table sipping wine. There was the empty field waiting for the game to begin. There was excitement and also apprehension in the air. The players took their sides.
Then, the cheering began.
“Come on. Show your self!” The Believers cheered loudest and with their heads turned toward the stars.
On the other side of the field were the Skeptics. “Just satellites,” they’d say to one another about the intermittent lights sailing by overhead.
Then, suddenly, a skilled 'shooter' with a laser pointer locked onto a target: a dancing craft, or ship, sailing too fast to be a satellite. The eyeballs followed the beam into the night sky, tracking the blazing path of the speeding light. Is it a plane? A satellite? A light-ship?
"Power up!," "Power up!" Chanted the crowd in unison, hoping for an acknowledgement from the light-ship.
CONTACT HAS BEGUN
This is what I came for. I’ve never seen a UFO, but I’ve always wanted to. James virtually guarantees that you will see something extraordinary if you make the journey to his island sanctuary.
In Contact Has Begun, a documentary about Gilliland’s ranch, we see a brilliant video of a ship “powering up”. (For a peek at this documentary see YouTube.) In the presentation Gilliland observes there are two types of craft: metallic disksand biological craft. He caught one of the latter powering-up on tape. It shows a ball of light or light sphere pulsing pink rings.
I powered up the moment I saw this as this so-called biological craft shares the characteristics of the winged 'Ring of Cosmic Power' of the light god, Ahura Mazda. This winged ring is known as the Merkabah vehicle in Jewish mysticism. Ahura Mazda sails the stars in this mystical craft. It represents the next level of human evolution and a capability inherent in each of us.
A similar ‘craft’ is mentioned in the Mahabarata, which says that Arjuna, in his journey aboard a “Divine Chariot, brilliant like the Sun” traveled through the galaxy to visit his father, Indra, chief of the gods” and saw “wondrous chariots by the thousands” out in space.
They shone with their own light.
The Sage Vaisampayana told Arjuna that the lights he sees as stars are the “perfected royal seers,” self-awakened humans who have transformed themselves into stars, light spheres.
They are surrounded by effulgent energy fields or auric shells.
Is it possible these are the light craft seen at Gilliland’s Island?
On Sunday night the crowd had thinned.
As I stood facing the mountain at 2:00 was the Milky Way. I could see the ethereal Great Rift of the galactic center.
James gave us some stones that, he claimed, are not from Earth and are unidentifiable. He thought this might enhance our experience.
Night had barely fallen when shouts came from the crowd. “Lights in the sky!” The green beam of the laser locked onto a peculiarly dancing point of light.
Suddenly, “whoosh.” A pulse or a beam washed over my heart center, lifting my spirit. The only other time I’ve experienced such a feeling came from ancient Egyptian artifacts and temples.
Whoosh. A second pulse fluttered through me.
Rapture. Joy. Once again, I could feel my heart chakra opening.
The third wave followed immediately.
No satellite that I know of could cause this feeling. To my knowledge no traditional aircraft can cause this either. This leaves me of the opinion that an unidentified craft had caused this. Was it a biological light-ship just saying ‘hello’?
While I can’t say for sure, this experience left me with one certainty. That is, I will return to James Gilliland’s island sooner than later.
I’m pleased to report the First Annual Dreamland Festival held here in Guitar Town aka ‘Stargate Nashville’ was a huge success. The Dreamland radio program hosts Anne and Whitley Strieber, Linda Moulton Howe and Jim Marrs participated in a tremendous weekend of fun with our special guests, the Dreamland listeners. 125 visitors from 19 states and Canada were in attendance at the auditorium in Nashville’s Public Library. I’d like to offer a special thanks to all who participated and made this event such a memorable time.
Welcome to the Dreamland Festival. Everyone loved the event poster designed by Mark Foster
Anne Strieber opened Friday evening with a poignant homage to the over 500,000 people who wrote to the Striebers after Whitley’s blockbuster book Communion was published. Some of these letters point to evidence that the off-world visitors are time travelers from parallel universes.

Whitley Strieber
Whitley Strieber gave a commanding talk about our essential condition and what is to come. Whitley brings an unparalleled understanding of issues facing all of us today and translates it into concise wisdom. It was fantastic having him in Nashville.
The Striebers shared candid views with our guests during the Q&A
On Saturday morning I opened with a talk that included my ‘Stargate Christianity’ research. What does it mean when the Bible says the heavens were ‘torn open’ at Jesus’s baptism and crucifixion? Is this a reference to the opening of a portal or a stargate?
My favorite slide: Jesus emerging from a modern stargate

There’s nothing quite like giving a presentation to the discerning eyes of Linda Moulton Howe and to the unflappable Jim Marrs
Egyptologist Mary Lomando, my Stargate Egypt tour partner, came to the event. We’re loading up for Stargate Egypt III, January 18-February 1, 2009
No one knows what’s really going on like Jim Marrs. Jim presented material from his new book, The Rise of the Fourth Reich
Jim Marrs is easily one of the best speakers on the reality of our times
Does Jim’s slide tell all?
Linda Moulton Howe presented astonishing details about the U.S. Government’s UFO cover-up
I was amazed by the evidence she presented concerning FDR’s knowledge of the extraterrestrial presence. It provided additional context for my talk the following morning, which included details of FDR’s quest for the reincarnated Jesus and the Holy Grail in 1934
We concluded the event with a lecture and tour at the Bicentennial Capital Mall
Once again, many thanks to all who participated. We’re all looking forward to the next Dreamland gathering.
Till then, join us in Nashville for my new presentation, Walk on Water, in Nashville October 10-12, 2008.
I’ve recently returned from leading another amazing Stargate Egypt tour with my favorite Egyptologist Mary LoMando. Portal jumping and stargate surfing in Egypt with Mary, and our guests, is truly inspiring and I want to thank all who joined us or magnified our experience with their intentions.

I can assure you that there’s nothing like stepping back over 5,000 years in time, and sharing sacred space with people from over 30 different countries, to give you a little perspective on the current times on Earth and the opportunity each of us has for soul transformation
Mary and I are excited about returning to Egypt together in January ’09. We invite you to join us for Stargate Egypt III. Details will be available soon. To reserve your seat in advance please email me at whenrytn@earthlink.net From temple to temple, time to time, we’ll take you to the power places – both inner and outer - that reveal the missing keys of ancient Egyptian ‘stargate metaphysics’.
ON THE TRAIL OF THE STARWALKERS
Since 2003 I’ve been cataloging images of the ancient Egyptian gods as Osiris, starwalking or surfing on their boats as regenerated or ‘born again’ beings of light - star beings. I’ve also been comparing them to modern depictions of the ‘star boats’ scientists call wormholes or star gates that theoretically enable travel through the galaxy and even to parallel universes. As seen below, the similarities are eye-popping, nearly perfect reflections of one another.

Depictions of these wormhole-shaped star boats are found in numerous temples and tombs of ancient Egypt. On this tour we visited the Greco-Roman temple of Knum and Neith at Esna, where I had my first opportunity to connect with the astonishing star portal and wormhole symbolism on its ceiling.

Especially captivating is the two awakened eyes and the wormhole symbols together. I take this as a sign that we’re waking up to the meaning of the wormhole-shaped boats of the gods! The gods are light beings who travel through wormholes!
The Barque of the Millions of Years, also known as the ship of Eternity, is the craft upon which the Gods of Light sail the currents of the Milky Way. As ‘Osiris’ these gods are actually regenerated light bodies or star beings.
Egyptologists say that this boat is merely the sun. I accept this partial interpretation so long as it is accompanied by the ancient conception of the Sun not only as the ‘light of the world’, but also as a star tunnel or star gate through which we travel to the heavenly realms.
Further, the river Nile this ‘sun boat’ sails upon is the heavenly Nile, the Milky Way, aka the River of Stars of the Divine Lady, Isis-Hathor.
Our Sun is the child of the Great Mother, the Milky Way. We are the Children of the Sun
With these basic cosmic concepts the stargate metaphysics of ancient Egypt emerges. We can turn our mortal bodies to immortal bodies of light and sail upon the wormholes of the realm of the Blessed. So runs the ancient Egyptian belief. It’s the ultimate alchemy of the soul. (For more please see my DVD set The Light Body Effect.)
The lions of yesterday and tomorrow guard that sun (star) gate to heaven. Above the sun is the green Pet symbol for heaven. The ancients thought of the Sun as a star tunnel leading to heaven. In the Genesis account it is two cherubim who guard the gate to the Garden of Eden. Today, we call this gate a star gate
As can be explicitly seen here, Christianity adopted this Sun/star gate metaphysics only inserting Jesus in the Sun and calling him the Son, the Door and the Way to Heaven.

I’ve been working steadily on the Sun/Stargate connection and will be reporting on it further in upcoming presentations.
I’m particularly excited about some new sun gazing techniques I learned in Egypt and have been working with (and will report on these soon, too). There may be no better place to connect with the Sun than Egypt. It is certain that Egypt has much in store for us that will be revealed in the coming years. That’s what makes my Stargate Egypt tours so special at this time.
RAISING THE WORLD PEACE PILLAR
As 2012 approaches, and our Sun and solar system astronomically aligns with the black hole at the center of our galaxy, the black or hidden one called Aton, we are entering a chaotic phase of renewal that calls for us to attune or atone with our highest selves. This Self, our true identity, is the Light Body, the Christ Body, or Stargate Body. It’s time for us to demonstrate our powers of love and light, and transmute the ignorance and darkness of the ridiculous Age of Terror into the Age of Tara or compassion and enlightenment.
It also calls for nothing less than the raising of the mystic World Pillar, the bond or union between Heaven and Earth the ancient Egyptians called the Djed or Osiris, that brings stability to our world.
Moira Timms writes, “Historically, the Djed was raised at crucial transitional times between cycles, evoking light and stability to dispel darkness and disorder. Such periods were the Winter solstices, the failing years of a reigning monarch or the coronation of a new one. However, according to the texts of the Temple of Horus at Edfu, the Djed served its greatest purpose and revealed its greatest mystery at the ending of one world age and the beginning of another. This is such a time!” (read the full article.)

Identical examples of the Osiris Pillar/Device/World Tree/Cross are found in the Osiris Chamber at Denderah, built over 1,300 years after Sety’s temple at Abydos.

Denderah is the Greek name for the Egyptian Ta-ynt-netert, which means 'She of the Divine Pillar'. That name is a reference to the Osiris Pillar/Device/World Tree/Cross. An alternate spelling for Dendera is Ten Tyra (the letters ‘d’ and ‘t’ are interchangeable). Swapping a few vowels (as is allowed) reveals a striking similarity between the words Tentyra and Tantra (Sanskrit, ‘weave’), energy work that connects the human body with the divine power flowing through the universe.
The Osiris Pillar/Device/World Tree/Cross was called the Ta-Wer, meaning ‘bond between heaven and earth.’ The union of heaven and earth is the same thing as the union of our two natures, divine and human nature. Literally, each one us is now called upon to synch heaven and earth, to raise ourselves and become Djedi or Stable Ones.

The Divine Face on the Pillar
Interestingly, Denderah was brand new at the time of Jesus and Mary Magdalene. One definition of “Denderah” is ‘house of bread’. “Bethelehem,” where Christ - the Light - was born, also means ‘house of bread’.
Many believe the first apostle was a priestess of Hathor. The Tyr element of Ten Tyra means pillar or tower. That’s exactly the meaning of ‘Magdala’, the root of Magdalene. Mary (‘beloved’) Magdalene (‘tower’) is the perfect title for a Hathor priestess. Her function? To raise the Divine Pillar or Tower that connects Heaven and Earth, of course.
EGYPT IN NASHVILLE
If you can’t make it to Egypt, but still want to Raise the World Pillar, then visit me in Nashville, TN, home to a 2,200-foot long living pillar of wisdom that features Egyptian Djed technology. I’ll walk with you through this ultra powerful place and help you to experience the energy it radiates.
On June 27-29, 2008 all the Dreamland hosts will converge in Music City, for a rare gathering of the Dreamland community. In the comfort of the Nashville Public Library, you can meet Anne and Whitley Strieber, Linda Moulton Howe, Jim Marrs and William Henry.
