Parapsychology and Non-Human Intelligences:
Non-Human Intelligences (NHIs) generally refer to conscious, sentient entities that are not human in origin. These intelligences are discussed across various domains — scientific, philosophical, parapsychological, and ufological.
Here’s an overview:
1. Scientific & Hypothetical Contexts
- Artificial Intelligence (AI): Machines or software systems that demonstrate human-like intelligence. Some speculate future AI may become conscious or self-aware — thus qualifying as a form of NHI.
- Extraterrestrial Life: Scientists consider the possibility of intelligent life beyond Earth — civilizations that may be billions of years more advanced than ours.
- Post-Biological Intelligences: Hypothetical beings that evolved from biological life into digital or synthetic forms.
2. Ufological & Contactee Accounts
- Many experiencers, remote viewers, and contactees report interactions with NHIs described as:
- Greys, Tall Whites, Reptilians, Nordics, etc.
- Entities said to be operating in or beyond the astral, interdimensional, or non-physical realms.
- Telepathic or energetic forms of communication are often reported.
3. Parapsychology & Esoteric Views
- NHIs are sometimes considered beings from subtle realms — such as:
- Elementals, spirit guides, angels, or daimonic intelligences.
- Consciousness-based entities that may exist within the astral plane, mental plane, or other dimensions of reality.
- Thoughtforms or “tulpas” created through focused intent.
4. Philosophical & Consciousness Studies
- Some thinkers argue that consciousness is fundamental, not emergent — implying the universe itself could be filled with forms of intelligence we can’t yet perceive.
- The panpsychist view holds that all matter has some form of consciousness — thus rocks, atoms, or planets might be proto-intelligent.
Are NHIs Active or Engaged With Humanity?
Some believe:
- NHIs may be observing or subtly guiding human evolution.
- They may interact through dreams, altered states, or advanced technology.
- Their goals may range from benevolent guidance to neutral observation or even manipulative experimentation.
