About this ebook

The author shares many encounters that made him lean towards the studies of intuitive feelings as well as the psychic phenomena that relate to the mystifying world of the unknown. He had been in the quandary in his early years regarding the paranormal happenings in his life. Rather than ignore them as skeptics do, Torrevillas regarded them with more significance in his life.

Author: Did the voice that talked to me when I was 20 years old, the possession by a spirit when I was 30, the appearance of Jesus Christ in the cloud when I was 48, and a lot more, were done by an extraterrestrial beings? The two humanoid angels that saved me when I had undergone open heart surgery? The being that grabbed my hair and pulled my leg recently was the same guide that had watched me throughout my life?

At 75 years of age, it was clear that benevolent extraterrestrials had guided me through the years. Now I am called to write this book.

The famous American Sleeping prophet, Edgar Cayce, said the past, present and the future are one. In the future we will live and see the beauty of the Universe in this infinite cycle of time- space. But we are hindered in our quest for truth! From Who? You will find the answer in this Book.

Hermaneli Torrevillas

I was born on the 19th of September 1937, the first son of ten children, to Corazon Danao Maristela and Gregorio Candidato Torrevillas, in Manila, Philippines. Although I may have been trained scientifically in the medical profession, I profess I have neither proficiency nor intellectual distinction. As to how I became a physician makes a fascinating story. I never thought I would become a Doctor of Medicine. I was far below the average during my primary and elementary grades as well as in my first two years in high school. At age 16, my third year in 1953, I started to pick up a jot in my studies, so I graduated in my senior year as “first honorable mention,” the third in a class of 42 members. In medical school, I was an average student. I assumed there was nothing exceptional about me but I was the president of our medical class from first year to the fourth year. The world of the unknown or the fields of paranormal sciences are most often viewed with contempt, disdain or ridicule by some learned men, physical scientists and religious leaders who seemed to have lost their open-mindedness. Discussing matters of this kind is repugnant to some. Nevertheless, this is the field that stirs my imagination and interest. My experiences somehow were strange. Extra-ordinary incidents made me accept there is a lot more to be learned from the metaphysical world beyond our limited scientific investigations.

    Author’s Note

    and

    Apologies

    All names written in this book are true and real. To the few who may mind quoting their names, I express my sincere apologies. There is nothing personal that will upset his or medical record, though most of them may have gone next door.

    To the medical profession, I hope my colleagues will understand that the immediate treatment of the members of my family, the unethical breach of the Hippocratic Oath, was secondarily due to the location I was in. I believe that if a physician was in similar situation, he would do the same.

    PART I

    The Time is Ripe!

    Introduction

    I was born on the 19th of September 1937, the first son of ten children, to the marriage of Corazon Danao Maristela and Gregorio Candidato Torrevillas, in Manila, Philippines.

    Though I may have been trained scientifically in the medical profession, I cannot boast but admit meager proficiency or intellectual distinction. As to how I became a physician fascinated me. I never thought I would become a Doctor of Medicine. I was far below the average during my primary and elementary grades as well as in the first two years in high school. At sixteen, in my third year in 1953, I started to pick up a jot in my studies and graduated on the fourth year first honorable mention, the third in the class of forty-two. In medical school, I was an average student. I assumed there was nothing exceptional about me.

    The world of the unknown or the fields of psychic sciences are most often viewed with contempt, disdain or ridicule by some learned men, physical scientists and the religious leaders who seemed to have lost their open-mindedness. Discussing matters of this kind is repugnant to some. Nevertheless, this is the field that stirs my imagination and interest.

    My experiences somehow were strange. These extra-ordinary incidents made me accept there is a lot more to be learned from the metaphysical world beyond which limited scientific investigations could be deduced.

    A lot of books on these mysteries have been written for centuries. Nonetheless, the scientific sphere takes little cognizance of its presence. Some fields have gained little acceptance by some physical scientists. Some scientists investigate the Universe to prove that there is no God.

    Many unique encounters I have experienced had made me lean towards the studies of intuitive feelings as well as the psychic phenomena that relate to the mystifying world of the unknown.

    I had been in a quandary in my early years regarding the paranormal happenings in my life and some people’s lives. Rather than ignore them as skeptics do, I regarded them with more significance. These had lured me as unnatural attractions rather than normal.

    Mediums or clairvoyants have been scorned or loathed in the Christian world for centuries. This is true to the prophets of old time. Why? Because of the biblical taciturnity that contact with the dead was prohibited. It was King Saul, the enemy of David, who wanted David killed because of his extreme jealousy: The fact that one day the throne would be handed to David according to a medium. This evolved after David killed Goliath. To block this, King Saul banned all the mediums. Nobody was allowed to contact the dead for guidance or events that the future will hold. Yet, at his last cling to life, King Saul consulted a medium, the witch of Ensor, and Samuel identified himself and talked to King Saul of his impending doom. Unless he changed his attitude, his life would be spared.

    King Saul could have saved his life had he stopped his pursue on the life of David. He could have given up the throne without much bloodshed. It was King Saul’s pride and jealousy that led to his own destruction together with his beloved son. Not because he consulted a medium as some claim as the cause of King Saul’s and son’s demise. He did not follow the instruction that was given by Samuel as the main reason for his downfall.

    There are numerous incidents written in the Old and New Testaments that dealt with the paranormal. The Holy Bible, after all, is concerned with the spiritual progress of man. Almost three-quarter of the book deals with prophecy. To the agnostics, the metaphysical level will never divulge an air of truth to them.

    In Nature everything is an exchange of energy, either physical and tangible or intangible. It is not because we cannot see the cosmic waves. There are things we do not see like radio waves, telephone, electricity or television signals. Cosmic waves are a source of energy, the most powerful energy that exists, we call them how we like; cosmic waves, astral projections, 6th sense, premonitions, insights. No matter how they are called, they exist and even animals are born with it. We have lost some of this sixth sense.

    The work of professionals especially in the field of astrology is to learn to control the interpretation of these energies over years of hard work and experience. We are all born with different innate capacities and some are more sensitive to these forces.

    A great number of people today have been indoctrinated by their religious beliefs. They have become prisoners of their own creed or religious doctrines. There is no allowance for broad-mindedness but restraints.

    It was told 2000 years ago: Seek and ye shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto you! To me, these words meant knocking at the door of the spiritual realm—the metaphysical world. The state of the paranormal like intuition, ESP, clairvoyance, astral projection, superconscious state and other related fields are so difficult for the scientific world to investigate. Our world is plainly physical and the other existing in another dimension of energy unseen by the human eyes, yet alive, active and vibrating on its own all over the Universe.

    In my view, the metaphysical state made this world exists but with supernatural boundaries. A select number of individuals are given this knowledge. They act as windows to that ethereal realm. Clairvoyants appreciate and feel its existence through this window. They are gifted sometimes solving a murder which detectives can’t solve. The mystical world has complete control of the physical world without our conscious knowledge. Man is totally left to his own free will to knock and search into this metaphysical state. Use of Free Will is a birthright for all. It is sad to see that some cultures have taken the rights of individuals. Knocking on this door may not be given or answered. Submission to the Will of his Creator does not necessarily mean the answer will be available. It is through the gifted individuals that information may be given partly or fully.

    A very thin segment in our human society is given a pattern of ability or a gift from the Supernatural level. Intuition is the simplest. Everybody has this in varying degrees. Most don’t feel this.

    There are other gifts that provide a certain dimension when the occasion is apt. Laying of hands for healing has been known for ages. Others may show clairvoyance. However, this may be clouded or limited, and to some gifted individuals—with excellent results.

    The gift of prophecy is demonstrated by many in history. Did John the Apostle show this or the famous Nostradamus? Or the Mayan prophets or the ancient Egyptian prophets as written in stone walls? All these manifestations emerge in varying degrees of clarity. Nevertheless, not one of these psychic phenomena manifested among these rare individuals can show a deep and distinct depth of mysticism. There was always a demarcation.

    A tinge of cloudiness may blur the occasion. Even in the case of the foremost American Sleeping Prophet, Edgar Cayce a few things were not revealed, These are not to be revealed when Edgar Cayce was asked during a reading while in a trance. These varying forms of mysticisms had appeared throughout history and in every culture. I worked in the hinterlands in the Philippines and the culture was very primitive. Yet, there was one elderly who could tell that death was impending when a person who passed by his house without his knowledge. He could predict death? This is hard to believe. This never happened in cities as far as I know of this kind of paranormal concurrence.

    There is an extreme restriction of this knowledge from the other door. In most cases, this knowledge is given partially. This is the reason why some predictions by mediums come true, some partially. In earlier times they were accused of sorcery if one delved into this matter. It was written in the Old Book: To some knowledge is given full, to some little, to some none at all.

    Some of us have had unusual or mysterious experiences in our lives. Some have had strong intuition and strange encounters. I am certain most have had experiences that almost claimed his or her life or limb. One can only say Boy was I lucky! Or It was a miracle! I survived the plane crash. Given enough time to review his life and dig deep into the unusual happening—he or she will discover that we truly live in a mysterious world.

    Sometimes I wonder why I have had so many mystical experiences.

    These experiences mystify me beyond fascination. There seemed to be an entity or entities present as if someone or they snatched me from the tentacles of death or impending catastrophe.

    I have wondered the last 60 years regarding these expositions though insignificant they might have been when the incidents occurred. All that is written here are my true experiences. I leave these mysteries to your understanding.

    These encounters have become a portion of my life, a life that I take meaning of its fulfillment, puzzling in its course, mystical it may seem in its roots but forming a whole reality that is coming now to its end.

    Spiritual and earthly evolution had to take place. What I could not discern was the statement of the American Sleeping Prophet, Edgar Cayce, that the past, present, and future are one. To me, the present as we experience today, has happened already a long time ago. Are we in an infinite cycle? We are not there yet. We are assured by Inelia Benz, sent by the Source, we will be there in a few generation. Our technological advancement had been hidden from us by the greed of the wealthy bloodlines or the elite group.

    When we evolve into higher dimension, we can travel in time and space. The elite have this but they don’t want the general population to possess this. Time and space exist as one. Not as we understand time and space in our planet. And when we are there, we can travel following the millions of threads out there in the Universe. We can go back and forth, past to the future. Is it not a better place to live with no expense?

    My spiritual understanding of this world has been changed slowly the last 60 days. Today is the 15th of October 2012. After reading a lot of exposes and disclosures of a few individuals in their retirement years who had contacts with aliens for many years, some in their early childhood like Bob Dean, Dr. Steve Greer, Kerry Cassidy, Bill Ryan, and the incarnation of Inelia Benz, I began to have second thoughts as regards the spirits who had guided me throughout my life, though unseen.

    Please open the websites of Camelot, Avalon, Laura Eisenhower, Inelia Benz, White Hats.com and many others which you can search in the Internet. (I have written down the Websites and Videos in Part II of this book) so you will have a better understanding what is happening in the world today, knowledge which has been kept hidden from the public for decades by the elite. Who are they?

    About a week before my 75th birthday, last month, while still asleep at about 5:00 in the morning, somebody grabbed my hair and shook my head once. After an hour I decided to get up. I asked my wife (there are only two of us in the house) the reason why she grabbed my hair and shook my head. She never woke me up before this way. She answered that she did not. I thought then this was a dream. It seemed so real. A few days later, about the same time in the morning, somebody grabbed my right leg, flex it 90 degrees and pulled my leg. I asked my wife why she pulled my leg but she denied. Then I began to think that this must be the spirit that has been protecting me throughout my life.

    That day, when I opened my computer, Project Camelot, came up in the screen without searching. Later on that day, I realized I was being led to this site. This is my first time to be exposed to this website. The next few weeks I was engrossed by the disclosures and histories of some individuals who had long contacts with extra-terrestrial beings. Some of them had been invited to other planets in our galaxy. Did the voice that talked to me when I was 20 years old, the possession by a spirit when I was 30, the appearance of Jesus Christ in the cloud when I was 48, and a lot more, was done by an extraterrestrial beings? The two humanoid angels that helped saved my life too? (I had a complicated open heart surgery in January 2011). The spirit guide that grabbed my hair and pulled my leg recently was the same guide that had watched me throughout my life?

    The Clairvoyant I knew very well told me that I had two guides and one was a Holy Ghost. I asked her who the ‘Holy Ghost’ was. She answered It was Elijah. I only know of one Elijah the Prophet. Was Elijah from the highest ultra-dimension or the Source?

    According to Bob Dean, there are 200 civilizations in our galaxy and 57 had visited the earth. There are 400 billion stars in our galaxy and 400 billion galaxies in our Universe. We are then one of the tiniest creations in our galaxy. Edgar Cayce mentioned about other universes beside our own. This reduces our planet to a quantum particle.

    Who created us? According to those who have befriended the ETs, we have been genetically created 25,000 years ago. That is more recent compared to extraterrestrial aliens whose civilizations are thousands and even a million years ahead of us. We are lagging far behind in our quest for advancement!

    Why? This is so because we have been stunted in our spiritual growth by greed and wars among ourselves in our planet. The ET’s are trying to prevent the Third World War which will be nuclear. Will we have nuclear devastation? The ET’s started to come to help us when the atomic bombs were dropped in Japan. There have been many UFO sightings in UK and USA (especially in Arizona) in the after World War II.

    Why are the extraterrestrials interested in us? Is it because we are beautiful people in this planet. We have seen faces of aliens who taken (their craft had landed accidentally) from Africa or in New Mexico or nearby states. They are not that pretty. Most of the inhabitants of this earth will be scared if they materialize themselves physically.

    The spirituality of humanity will save us if we can remove the walls that divide the races of man. The ET’s can detect and read our thoughts and behavior with their advance science. They have sent modern prophets like Inelia Benz and a few others to raise individual vibrations into oneness, or collectiveness as a whole. Are we heeding the silent call? The human flesh was genetically created by beings from other planets but not our souls? Our souls had existed for eons of years by the Supreme Creator. This time, our wandering souls were allowed to incarnate or use the human flesh on this planet for its advancement. The flesh and its brain that was been genetically molded by the aliens has not followed a path that our creators (scientists from other planets) did not expect. A few aliens are malevolent (the Reptilians, Arcons) in our setting? Did the ET design greed and selfishness in our genes? Which one was to blame? Is it the human flesh or the malevolent aliens? The soul registers the thoughts and the deeds of the flesh and all are recorded in another planet known as Akasia (according to Edgar Cayce). This vehicle, this body, whatever it does—has been held captive by the indwelling soul and is freed only when the body is physically dead. Through its existence this has been recorded in the soul’s mind, all thoughts and acts, and a duplicate in the book of Remembrance or Akashic record.

    I now believe that my guides after all these decades were the good extraterrestrial beings.

    Are there bad ET’s? These bad apples are hiding and the good ET’s are after them. They have incarnated in the flesh of the wealthy on this planet that are hiding the truths from the public. Why hide? So they can control the economy of many countries by controlling the carbon products for their own benefits. There were discoveries in the early 90’s but they have covered them to prevent the advancement of our science. We should be travelling from city to city or from planet to planet with electromagnetic force by now. But they have succeeded to hide this knowledge. We should be able to de-materialize ourselves as the ET’s do. This is the main reason why a few retired heroes from the military have come up to disclose the truth. Others have been murdered or had met accidents because they started to leak out information or did not want to cooperate. Whose decision was the evil act? The ET’s? Or the top guys and the elite? There must be bad apples.

    The disclosures of these individuals are slowly leaking into the public. Not everybody who comes to this knowledge is enlightened. In due time, many will be convinced. As for me, I believe this is my mission in life: To help reveal the hidden truth and awaken the masses of what is happening.

    If some who had disclosed information had disappeared or had accidents or murdered then we can conclude those responsible are indeed evil. One report mentions that he could not stay more than an hour in the underground base in Arizona because they were mutilating human bodies. What for? Who were the dissectors? The extraterrestrial aliens? But they know the science of our bodies being parcel to our physical creation. Why mutilate? Or are there aliens from another galaxy that they don’t know our earthly physical beings? Or are they earthly human dissectors? This must be for their insatiable appetite just as the Romans loved to see blood when Christians were mutilated in the arena by lions and later devoured their flesh.

    The aliens (?) or the greedy folks have built the last sixty years luxurious underground bases in many countries using tax money of the people. They reason it is for the military and for the chosen intellectuals to hide from the panicking public when millions will know the truth. Is it? Will the time be late? This time a lot of people will be dying from hunger and disease. Or is it their design? It was so designed so they can establish the New World Order.

    The New World Order will be governed by greedy folks and the rest will just be slaves for centuries to come. But it is prophesied that the new World Order will be peaceful. Where there will be no wars anymore. What will happen to them who are hiding in the underground bases? Have they created their own tombs?

    The road will be bumpier the next few decades. Just hold on tight!

    PART I

    THE TIME IS RIPE!

    1. THE STRANGE BOND.

    Whenever my mother was asked to give a message in the church, decades after World War II, after her near-death-experience (NDE) and coming back to life was a miracle to her and her close friends during the War. Though she did not have any training in homeletics, she did very well when she delivered her sermons.

    The NDE experience made her a devoted follower of Christ. She had fostered spiritual fulfillment in herself especially when she became the National President of the Women’s Association of the Philippines in the 1960’s. She wrote a valuable work which had a strong sense of purpose, the book My Pilgrimage of Faith, mentioned my name partly where I was involved in her vivid dream. Dreams are usually forgotten after a day or two. She never forgot this throughout her life. (Actually, a very significant event was purposely omitted in her book but I shall write this later in this section. This was revealed to me in when I was 48 years old.)

    The places where the family evacuated during World War II, from one place to another, were twenty kilometers away or more. This was from the work place of my father at Anakan, Gingoog,
