Gameplan: UAP Disclosure
But What’s Happening on the Sidelines?

You’ve most likely heard the term Disclosure which, when it happens, will be the U.S. government’s admittance of UAP (unidentified aerial phenomena) and NHI (non-human intelligence). And after decades of denial and secrecy - and much to the excitement of every expert, experiencer, and enthusiast - it seems that Disclosure could actually occur.
At this moment, the UAP Disclosure Act (UAPDA) is making its way through legislative hallways for the third time, competing against other initiatives for the coveted position of attachment to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) to ensure the bill’s passing.
If the UAPDA does get to nab a ride with the NDAA and, therefore, does pass, it would grant the USG eminent domain over non-human made materials such as retrieved craft of unknown origin. It would also establish an independent accountability panel, a signal to the world that the United States clearly understands both the need for transparency and its role in the global legitimatization of extraterrestrial life.
Some fear the UAPDA will be blocked due to more pressing international concerns, namely the Israel-Iran war. But chaotic news cycles have in the past served as effective plays for initiatives hoping to slide through the line.
In December 2020 while attentions were on the pandemic, buried within the Intelligence Authorization Act was a relatively small attachment labeled “committee comment” that required the Pentagon to release everything it knew about unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP).
While later the Pentagon’s supposed findings did not offer sufficient transparency, the attachment itself established the USG’s ability and tendency to distract one conversation, in this case UAP, with another, COVID, thus setting a precendential path forward for the UAPDA.
So, current issues may not in fact affect the UAPDA’s final outcome.

The Sidelines
While much of the attention is upon 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.
Unlike the pigskin kind, this game discourages competition and supports cross-team collaboration. Because, for the first time in UFO history, previously unrelated or rival organizations are now finally engaging with one another, all in the friendly name of UAP Disclosure.
For example, today, nuts and bolts UAP groups are fervently welcoming alliances with paranormal researchers (parapsychologists), reason being that within every UAP experience is an embedded psi ability or activity. Think levitation, missing time, defied physics, telepathic communication, or any psi element reported by a UAP or NHI experiencer.
Attendees witnessed first hand the UAP/Psi collaboration at this year’s recently wrapped Contact in the Desert conference, the largest annual ufology gathering in the world. Several panels and lectures purposefully targeted the topic of psionics which, although psionics holds a more specific meaning, has become the catch-all word for all things psi, especially in relation to UAP and NHI.
Also jumping out from behind the benches are hypnotherapists, data analysts, former military personnel, government whistleblowers, and academics. We’re seeing Stanford, Harvard, and Houston’s Rice in the mix and on the news as the UAP conversation continues to intensify.
Specific disciplines paralleling with the galactic subject are, of course, the expected astrophysics and technology, but also anthropology, immunology, and religious studies.
And let’s not forget the AI and crypto crowds. It’s a podcaster’s dream team. And it’s still first down.
The UAP community has spilled over the sidelines and into the parking lot, bringing their enthusiastic findings into the public eye. No longer is the Disclosure initiative just a passion of the few, for it has undeniably become a world-wide enterprise that has grabbed humanity’s awareness.
What is equally interesting is that this multi-group effort has unintentionally resulted in several benefits that other industries and organizations can learn from, especially when a common goal persists.
Disclosure is a process that is closing the door on antiquated practices while effectively bridging various entities into a revised and unified paradigm. (LPS)
Validation
With collaboration often comes confirmation, in this case not just for UAP and NHI, but most notably for parapsychology and psionics (or psi). As the ET phenomena grows in credibility, psi’s is growing along with it. Or, as one makes first down, the other makes second. The first consequential advantage, therefore, is validation.
The subject of UAP/NHI needs this universal validation for two specific reasons: to support the efforts of those pushing for Disclosure to whatever degree that may present, and to reinforce the authenticity of the experiencers who have personally witnessed UAP activity or have been abducted by NHI. Because it is the experiencers themselves who have been retaining the bruised and battered front line defense positions for far too long.
Perhaps the lesson here is that when a shared objective is on the white board, more teams should enter the field, swap ideas and info, and grow 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 any sort of teamsmanship with Ivy league professors or military personnel, they’d think you were crazy for even asking.
But now things are different and conversations are ensuing. Arrogance and divisiveness, traits that have always drawn thick lines, are less 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 and unified paradigm.
In similar collaborative applications, the healthcare and gaming industries have allied to create interactive technologies for physical therapy, while the normally AI-adverse religious sector is now dipping its toes into AI versions of Jesus. These industries are moving past the resistance and into collaboration, thus illustrating a new kind of cohesiveness - just as we’re seeing within the UAP ontology.
A New Framework
Lastly, this unity is forming a new framework that takes us well beyond the rancid remnants of the Roswell era by pulling together modern dialogues from philosophy, spirituality, and consciousness, because it is well understood that everything connects.
The integrated structure provides both the public and governments a safe place to lean and to learn. An empathetic trust is being formed as this synergistic framework discriminates only against falsities and never against variety.
And because this revised game plan is here to stay, the UAP conversation is shifting out of the wild west and into a new renaissance.
Furthermore, this multi-group framework is cementing the topic of UAP/NHI as both game-changing and transforming. The ball is now in play and Team UAP is banded and ready to usher humankind through the Disclosure process and into the post-Disclosure era.
The Next Play
Commerce and industry could greatly benefit by following a similar structure. For example, an effective leader realizes that power is retained when power is shared. This refers to ego-less delegation, the engagement of good people and the allocation of essential resources, and the understanding that when an analogous endeavor exists, coordinating with partner entities is a must.
Right now, Disclosure is sitting at the 30-yard line and we just need Uncle Sam to run it in. Considering not long ago the masses easily accepted the government’s stern denial of UAP, we’ve come a long way as a society to embrace both the cosmic truth and the grandeur of Creation.
We’ve learned a few new plays since that infamous crash in 1947. And we have entered an entirely new schema, one that fosters, as mentioned above, the real goal: Teamsmanship. - LPS
