Whether one accepts that the Cydonia
"anomalies" are artificial or natural, they still present an interesting set of
phenomena to ponder and explore. Apparently NASA agreed since they had the Mars Global
Surveyor re-map Cydonia April of 1998. See the Mars
Global Surveyor Site. Also:

On a considerably smaller, but no less significant scale,
Gilbert Levin's paper, "The
Viking Labeled Release Experiment and Life on Mars," concludes that the Viking LR
experiment detected living microorganisms in the soil of Mars in 1976.

"I met a traveler from an antique land who said: Two
vast and trunkless legs of stone stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand, half sunk, a
shattered visage lies, whose frown, and wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, tell that
its sculptor well those passions read which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
the hand that mocked them and the heart that fed; And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: look on my works, ye Mighty, and
despair!" Nothing beside remains. Round the decay of that colossal wreck, boundless
and bare the lone and level sands stretch far away."
Percy Bysshe Shelley, 1817. From Cydonia
"SETI@home
is a scientific experiment that harnesses the power of hundreds of thousands of
Internet-connected computers in the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI). You
can participate by running a program that downloads and analyzes radio telescope
data."
Perhaps SETI's needle in the haystack search would be more fruitful and better focused if
joined with the efforts of psychics, shamans and other travelers of the spirit.

What we may confirm is that "intelligent" non-Earth species
have made analogous and homologous evolutionary adaptations. Further, the potential to
develop along similar evolutionary lines will be found to exist in ALL intelligent
species.
Deep understanding of another intelligent species' culture and their psychology would
contribute to a fundamental understanding of evolutionary and teleological forces in the
Universe and humanities' place in the cosmos. It will also touch on the fundamental
question of the interdependency of all life and the extent of free will. See:
"A
Vision."
Often it is asked how and why "alien" species may be
studying us. If we
could traverse time and space and contact "alien" cultures- how would we
approach the task? I put "alien" in quotes for two reasons- first, no
species is truly alien to another and second, perhaps our answers create the reality itself.
To understand the complexities and risks of species
interactions we only have to look at our own interactions
with so-called "lower" animals. We eat animals
unnecessarily, often treat them in a barbarous manner and
have caused innumerable extinctions. We threaten not only
their existence, but our own existence, thereby belying
the distinction between "them" and "us." Our cruelty to
other forms of life has "infected" our souls and made us
"less human." Karma is a powerful and universal
force on all planes of existence. Until mankind
understands his karmic role in the universe, he would be
seriously harmed by the introduction of any "alien"
technology. If such alien technology is proffered it
should be treated as the proverbial Trojan horse.
An intelligent non-Earth species, conscious of the above,
might attempt to share with mankind their wisdom, without
invoking the dangers that would damage their or mankind's
karma. One way of accomplishing this would be to permeate
man's dreamtime consciousness, subtly and powerfully
teaching lessons leading to self discovery and universal
awareness. It would then be for mankind to reconcile
imparted wisdom with his conscious state so that wisdom
becomes action.
However, a non-Earth species that
chooses to interact on a conscious level at this time in
human history, would be doing so with the intent to
manipulate. That species would have determined that their
and mankind's destinies are so intertwined that direct
interaction is required to shape the future to their
advantage. However, the costs to that species would be
enormous. At best they could only control the evolutionary
pathway, since their manipulation would make way for
other, more loving and understanding species to provide
palliatives and alternatives.
Can we exclude the possibility that these
"aliens" are really the end point of human
deevolution and genetic homogenization? Beings traversing
time, seeking to recapture a lost future. Or, perhaps they
are not of this world- but are seeking to genetically and
culturally merge with our species and
cohabit the Earth as equals,
offsetting our weaknesses with their strengths and ensuring
the survival of both species.
Again, are UFOs manifestations of man's psychic reality or physical
phenomena or both?
"Jung came to the conclusion that UFOs were examples of the
phenomena of synchronicity where external events mirror internal psychic
states."
