It was a little more than a thousand years after Christ Jesus and about a thousand years before white man ever set foot upon the continent that is now called North America that this story begins. It was a beautiful and peaceful area on the plains by running rivers and forested lands, when Indian people were mostly friendly with one another and there was more peace than wars.

There lived a young and beautiful Indian woman who was with child. She somehow felt this was to be a special child which would show people once again of the ways of the ancient ones, who lived up in the stars above. So often she heard of the tales and legends which surrounded her village about a land that had once been beautiful where her people lived upon thousands of years before. It was said that one day this land would arise once more and people once again would have contact with the star people who were guiding their steps from above.

That was why on this cold night with heavy belly that she was walking miles away from her village, for somehow she sensed that the child should be born out in the plains under the starry sky with no one around. She rested by a river at the edge of this forest and knew the time was at hand. But many hours she lay looking up at the stars above before the child finally came. She knew it would have been more proper to have had the baby in her village, but somehow this felt more right. She knew she would not live long after the birth and only had time to name him and wrapped him up in the ancient blanket made of the most beautiful material, which came from Lemuria. It was purple, gold, and white. She looked up at the night stars and her eyes caught the brightest one and she said, "Bright Star's your name," and then she died.

A few miles away lay another Indian village, and the eldest and wisest man from the village knew somehow tonight would be a special night, and so he and some of the other men were walking and looking at the stars above. Then he heard the sound of a baby and knew why he had been out tonight. They buried the young woman and went back to their village. The elder and wise man asked the ancient ones for the name of this baby and as he asked he saw the brightest star in the sky and said, "Bright Star, so that is your name?"

Bright Star grew up as one of these village people (similar to his mom's) as if he had always been meant for them. He didn't play and hunt like boys his age for he never felt right harming one of his brothers and sisters of nature. Often times he wanted to be alone and so never really played much with the other kids. He felt close to them but more like a distant closeness. He somehow remembered the laws of the ancient ones and lived these laws (cosmic laws); somehow he had never forgotten them. He would often go to the forest by the river and lay and look at the stars shining above him. He was always drawn mostly to the brightest star in the sky, and he often wondered what it must be like to live there and all the other planets and stars as well. He grew up into a young man, and while others his age were planning their marriage and having children he would still go off and be by himself, for that is how he chose it. He didn't think anything was wrong with marriage; on the contrary, he just never found anyone in which he wanted to be with. A lot of times he camped out for days and weeks alone all by himself, and sometimes he would have visions and remembrances of long times past and he wondered about them.

Then one day he finally understood his mission and received his cosmic name, and knew all of these wonderful visions and wisdom were meant to be shared with his people so that they too could remember once again the joy of the ancient ones. He went back and began to share his stories and visions of life on other planets with the others, and his excitement and pure energies began to work on the other people, and they too began to have memories of lives on other planets and on Lemuria and Atlantis. Then they all would sit by the fire and share their stories with one another; it became like a ritual and it pleased everyone.

Time passed, and he grew to a man of about thirty-five. Still he received messages from the star people and shared in the fireside stories. One day he told his people that soon he would not be with them any more and they would see something spectacular at his leaving. Well they would ask him if he was going to die and they thought, "Poor fellow, to know when you were going to die would be terrible." But he would just smile and say "Not exactly." Then the day arrived and he said, "Follow me to the plains by the river and forest, for that is where I shall leave you." They arrived at twilight and he said, "In a couple of hours it will start." They prepared by meditation and dancing and songs, and then they heard a noise. They looked up at the starry sky above them and saw a starship. It landed by them and out came beautiful people. Some of them had long golden hair and some had darker hair, but all of them wore smiles and had a golden glow around them.

One came out and said, "My name is Atera and I am from a place called Andromeda. We come from all over and have been watching you for a long time and much has been prepared for this meeting. Bless you, all of you dear ones." Then they were bathed in golden rain and many  remembered who they were, where they came from and their mission, as well as their rightful name. Then Bright Star stepped forward and said "It is time to leave you, but before I go I want you to know I will return once more, many of your earth years from now, to fulfill a prophecy and give back to the earth what had been taken from her during the end of Lemuria." He then was handed five stones whose colours were, purple, gold, white, pink, blue. He gave these stones to the elder of his people and said "Bury these deep within the earth and never uncover them, for many years from now I shall return and I will uncover them and give them back to the earth in the crystal grid."

Then a golden triangular light fell about him, and they saw his body turn lighter and brighter and it was as if he floated within it. He spun faster and faster until in a brillant flash of light he was gone. Then they saw him, but he looked a bit different and radiant as if all that had been unpure had left him, and only purity remained. He then said "I must go now to my home in the stars, but I will always be watching out for you and guiding you every step of the way. I will be born again to fulfill my mission -- until then let no one dig up the crystals after you buried them, and keep this site sacred always." Then he left in the starship and they, awestruck, buried the crystals deep beneath the earth.
   

It was about a thousand or so years later, around the end of the last century, that there lived this beautiful Indian woman and her husband. They lived on the plains but life was not easy at this time. For as the white men came Indian life got much harder. They lived off of a reservation and had hardly any money, but they had a roof over their heads and were happy at the new baby boy who came to them. He seemed to be a special baby, for he never cried ever and he was always so calm and happy. They named him Star Bright, for he was like a star which shone bright with inner light.

All the other Indian women always asked how he was so calm and happy and what was their secret. But they would say there was no secret, he just had always been that way. When Star Bright was one years old he spoke his first words, but two words stood out of all the rest. He would say "Bright Star, Bright Star." His parents thought he was trying to say his name but gotten it mixed around. He could say simple sentences as well by this age. When he was three, his parents gave up telling him his name was Star Bright and called him Bright Star. After all, it too was a lovely name. At this time the sentences he could say were as good as a ten year old and his parents were indeed astounded. By the time he was six years old, he seemed to know math and science beyond an adult, and his parents were beginning to suspect that someone off the reservation was teaching him these things. They got worried that whoever it was would expect to be paid, and they had no money. For Bright Star never went to school, his parents were just that poor, like almost everyone else on the reservation.

He liked to spend time outside and was mostly concerned with an area which had been sacred to their people for many centuries. His parents told him he should not go there, that only the elders were allowed in this area. By the time the boy was nine he started speaking a language that his parents could not understand. They finally asked him where and who he was learning this from. He said, "The star people taught me" and then he told his mother his cosmic name and hers too. He told her that over a thousand years ago she had given birth to him right at this sacred spot and had died. His parents didn't know what to do and so they took him to the council of elders. They spent a couple of hours with him and told his parents that one man would know who the boy truly was, the eldest and most wise Indian still around. They took him to this man and he looked into the boy's eyes and said "Bright Star, it really is you." Bright Star told everyone then that he would only be with them for a little more than a decade. Everyone was so excited that the prophecy would finally be fulfilled. They had waited for a thousand years for him to return and be born as he had last told them he would. The elder and the boy were always together and they wondered just what it was that Bright Star and this old and wise man would talk about.

Then, when Bright Star was twenty-one, he told his mom that in one week the prophecy would be fulfilled, and that he would leave and return to his people once more in the skies above. Of course his parents were sad, but happy too, for they knew it was an important work he was doing. In one week all of his people travelled with him to the sacred place, where most of them had been a thousand years before in another past life. They waited for about an hour and prepared, when in the silence of the night they heard a sound and saw a big starship land in the open plains around them.

They were astounded and excited. The people who came out of the ship were absolutely beautiful and radiant beings. They had golden hair and some had darker hair, but they were all beaming smiles of joy at them. Suddenly the energy around them became more hot and wonderful and everyone felt the love of these radiant ones as if they were all family together. Bright Star uncovered the stones, which were just as shining and brillant as the day they were buried beneath the earth. They all saw a web of light, and Bright Star held up the stones in different points of the grid and they dissolved into the light of this beautiful web, to take their place once again into the earth's grid system.

Then Bright Star said "I will leave you all now but before I go I want to say that you all have within you what I have done. Soon the time will come where men will turn against one another, but if you keep on your path and stay always true, that it will not effect you, and soon you too will meet me in the stars above." The eldest and most wise man then stepped forward and said "I too will leave you now and go back home." The people looked on with astonishment when the old and wise man turned with a flash of brillant light into a golden haired being. He said "My name is Atera and I came here a thousand of your years ago when Bright Star first ascended, and I was born unto your world so there would be someone who would recognize this one brother. Now I too must go back to my people, to a star system you call Andromeda." Bright Star said he came from Sirius, and that many of them came from Sirius, Pleiades, Andromeda, and many more systems which are too many to name, and then energies of the purest kind fell upon the people and they too remembered who they were and what their mission was. Then Bright Star turned in a flash of light to a radiant being with darker hair and beamed one last smile at them and said "I will always watch and guide you when you ask for help and just look for the Brightest Star in the sky and know I am there." Then a flash of light and they were gone and the starship left.

The people never forgot that night and many ascended into higher realms in that life. Bright Star's people have always kept this knowledge still to this day, and the sacred site still stands untouched, for so was it meant to be. Many say that in the night sky, especially a clear one, you can see starships flashing their lights and some even say that Bright Star still visits his people from time to time. Always remember that you too can simply ascend into the higher realms.... anyone can.
