Gameplan: Disclosure

But What’s Happening on the Sidelines?

Unless you’ve been living underneath a very large Earthly rock, you’ve heard the term disclosure. And after decades of denial and much to the excitement of every expert, experiencer, and enthusiast, it seems that disclosure, the US government’s admittance of UAP (unidentified aerial phenomena) and NHI (non-human intelligence), will actually happen.

Until then, and at the time of this writing, the UAP Disclosure Act (UAPDA) is making its way through legislative hallways for the third and last time, competing against other initiatives in hopes of finally gaining attachment to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) which would assure the bill’s passing. If it does, the UAPDA would grant the US government eminent domain over non-human made materials such as retrieved craft of unknown origin. It would also signal to the world that the United States clearly understands its role in the global legitimatization of extraterrestrial life.

While much of the attention is on getting the UAPDA through the goalpost, another remarkable game is afoot, this one occurring on the sidelines where the key players are cheered and the world stands witness.

This game isn’t as much about competition as it is as about collaboration. Because, for the first time in history, multiple individuals and organizations that would ordinarily either compete or have nothing to do with one another are now frequently engaging and working cohesively. All in the name of disclosure.

For example, today, long-standing UAP groups are welcoming alliances with those researching the paranormal or psionics, reason being that within every UAP experience is an embedded psi ability or activity. Think levitation, missing time, defied physics, or telepathic communication.

In addition, other collaborators have jumped behind the benches such as hypnotherapists, data analysists, former military personnel, government whistleblowers, and academics. We’re seeing Stanford, Harvard, and Rice University in the mix and on the news as the UAP conversation continues to ramp up. Specific disciplines aligning with the galactic subject are the expected astrophysics and technology as well as anthropology, immunology, and religious studies.

Also piled in are the field researchers like those from the new for-profit venture, Skywatcher, and the popular-yet-credible crew from the hit television series, Skinwalker Ranch. And this is just the first down.

The UAP community has certainly spilled over the sidelines and into the parking lot, bringing their enthusiastic findings into the public eye. No longer is the disclosure initiative the passion of a few. For it has undeniably become a world-wide enterprise that is taking world governments by storm. And it’s about time.

What is equally interesting is that this multi-group effort has unintentionally resulted in a few benefits that other industries and organizations can learn from, especially when a common goal exists.

Validation

With this collaboration comes confirmation, not just for UAP and NHI (non-human intelligence), but also for resonant topics like physics and artificial intelligence, and most notably for parapsychology and psionics. As the ET phenomena grows in credibility, psi goes with it. Or, as one makes first down, so too does the other. So, the first consequential advantage is validation.

The subject of UAP/NHI needs this universal validation for two specific reasons: to support the efforts of those pushing for both disclosure and the passing of the UAPDA, and to support the authenticity of the experiencers who have witnessed UAP activity or have been abducted by NHI.

Perhaps the lesson here is that when a shared objective is on the white board, more entities can enter the field, swapping ideas and info, and growing the fan base.

Unity

Secondly, the collaborative front is feeling a sense of unity never before felt. If you asked a member of MUFON (the Mutual UFO Network) ten years ago if they perceived teamsmanship with Ivy league professors or military personnel, they’d think you were crazy for even asking. But today, things are different and conversations are ensuing. Arrogance and divisiveness, traits that draw thick lines, are no longer tolerated, while openness and positivism are encouraged. Disclosure, as it happens, is a process that is closing the door on antiquated practices while effectively bridging various entities into a revised paradigm.

A New Framework

Lastly, a new framework is being constructed that goes well beyond the Roswell-esque, denial-based thinking. This framework is the unified front; the whole of parts that provides the public and governments alike a place to go, to lean, and to learn. It encompasses dialogues regarding philosophy, spirituality, consciousness, and family dynamics. It pulls in research and intel from labs, landscapes, and laptops, and discriminates only against falsities and never against variety. It’s not the wild west, it’s a new renaissance. And it’s here to stay.

This multi-group framework, built from the people and establishments acting in the UAP field, is cementing the topic of UAP/NHI as a game-changer. Because now that the ball is in play, the UAP community is banded and ready to usher humankind through the process and into the post-disclosure era.

Considering not long ago the mere mention of UFO’s (UAP) would only elicit the government’s stern denial (and the church’s explanation of demons in disguise), we’ve come a long way as a society to embrace both the cosmic truth and the grandeur of Creation. Now we just need Uncle Sam to run it in.
