Brent Raynes decided to begin researching and investigating the UFO phenomenon back around January 1967, at age 14, soon after reading Flying Saucers: Serious Business by the late Indiana broadcaster and author Frank Edwards. Initially Brent’s focus in the UFO field was devoted to gathering evidence that seemed to support the popular mainstream “nuts and bolts” theory of extraterrestrial visitation to our planet. However, after a couple of years of reading and researching various magazine articles and books on the UFO matter, Brent began to give serious consideration to the alternative ideas, theories and evidence that was being presented by researcher-authors like John A. Keel, Dr. Jacques Vallee, and Brad Steiger.
Over the years, Brent has been particularly interested in the UFO close encounter and contact experiencer and the various and perplexing paranormal components that all too often are very evident in these cases. Frequently after such an encounter, the witness may have a series of paranormal experiences, be it poltergeist type activity, a ghost or ball of light, precognition, an out-of-body episode, or some other psychic manifestation. Often these experiencers describe apparent “alien” and “ghost” experiences going back to childhood.
Brent feels that the UFO contactee, abductee, shaman, religious visionary, medium, or NDEr all share a remarkably similar psychic profile. He suggests that we need to take a deep, comprehensive, and multidisciplinary look at these matters, looking not just up at outer space for our answers but also explore the vast dimensions of inner space as well.
