'Billy' [[Eduard]] Albert Meier (BEAM), the controversial author and teacher, was born in Bülach, Switzerland on the 3<sup>rd</sup> of February, 1937 and currently resides at the Semjase-Silver-Star-Center (SSSC), Hinterschmidrüti, Switzerland, which he helped build and establish. For over 80 years he has been regularly communicating [[Contact Reports|face to face and telepathically]] with extraterrestrial human beings, inadvertently educating him, and publishing that information in glorious detail. As might be envisaged over such a brilliant quantity of time for an unprecedented UFO related happening; they've managed to explain everything in full, clarifying the entire story, with extraordinarily interesting facts, opinions and perspectives emerging over the decades. Making him a thoroughly interesting gentleman. It has all been inciting enough to initiate many thousands of readers from around the world to read into everything and take interest in his story and life. He's had a life rich with all manner of experiences and accomplishments, in many countries, many of which were difficult, many thoroughly normal and boring too, nonetheless personally important and useful for [[Nokodemion|his evolution]] and [[the mission|mission]] in life. He is among the very few individuals who have put their entire life out into the public domain, nevertheless he's a relatively private man who averts showmanship - a reasonable amount of his written works have a somewhat serious tone, dealing with substantial matters of importance and worth.<br>

For over 80 years he has been regularly communicating [[Contact Reports|face to face and telepathically]] with extraterrestrial human beings and has published that information. As one might envisage, over such a brilliant quantity of time, they've managed to explain everything in full. An extraordinary quality of interesting facts, opinions and perspectives we've never known before, and still don't honestly, how could we in reality (and that's part of why they are doing it). All of which has been inciting enough to initiate many thousands from around the world to read into everything. He has had a life rich with all different kinds of experiences in many countries, many of which were extremely difficult, nonetheless important and useful for [[Nokodemion|his evolution]] and [[the mission|mission]] in life. <span class="mw-customtoggle-introbm"><small><small>[continue reading]</small></small></span>

He began contacts with the Plejaren in 1942 at the age of 5 years old. These contacts have been ongoing ever since and have also expanded to contacts with other extraterrestrial beings throughout the universe. The wider [[Plejaren Federation]]s homes are located on many different [[Planets#Plejaren Federation Planets Anchor|worlds]] and the [[Plejaren]] themselves have three home-worlds in a time-shifted dimension [[Plejares]] (well beyond the seven sisters) star system. Initially they called themselves [[Pleiadians]] and later [[Plejaren]] in order to ensnare the early fantasist fiction-rich reality-estranged writers who intercepted the Plejaren's explanations prematurely. Far before the ripe time to properly unfold what had been given, to root it in reality and determine exactly what it was they were trying to explain had reached its time. The arrangement has created a natural stratific order, allowing readers to independently establish clarity. For what would become as a story confusing enough to follow, involving the entire world and all of its history. Without that fantasy-rich glazing which unfortunately originated from shallow, ephemeral journalists taking out of context the most sensationalist revelations to humiliate him without even appreciating the original explanation.

Billy's communication with extraterrestrials has as one might expect been controversial, but the more we read about it the more we begin to appreciate why it's needed to be. It began for Eduard at age five where he was prepared for a life's work by [[Sfath]], an elderly extraterrestrial man from [[Erra]]. [[Asket]], his second teacher, continued the education for a further eleven years. Where then later Billy travelled the world, with Asket guiding him, through the worlds many lands and territories, in such a way that he could learn first hand about all the different beliefs and cultures, so that later he knew how to reach them as a writer.

On the 28th January, 1975, he began the series known as the [[Contact Reports]] with [[Semjase]], a Pleiadian/Plejaran woman. The articles and excerpts contained here expound upon his very extensive and interesting life. It was at this time that the opportunity was presented to Billy to photograph several of their [[Beamship]]s/anti-gravity spaceship manoeuvres as a means of giving weight and fortifying the position, story and claims. He took plenty of photos, over 1,000, some of these are presented in the [[Gallery]]. The [[Contact Reports|contact conversations]] were stored by the Plejaren on a device and resent to him telepathically so that he could type them out later. They contain many interesting things about history, humanities, sciences and spiritual topics. Since 1989 Billy has been having approximately four meetings a year with [[Ptaah]], the father of Semjase, and there is now well over 700 contacts to read. The Plejarens life expectancy is roughly ten times ours, so a certain maturity and fundamentally different perspective is quite often presented in these documents.</div>

| From a very early age, my special interests were about life in all aspects. This included the connections with nature and everything creative in general, which of course incorporated profound philosophical aspects of life. However the creative in and of itself in particular, was of very special value to me, as it represented the most important field of thought for me. So at every possible opportunity I delved into these wide-ranging issues and came across questions that could not be answered by the adults, or only partially and never satisfactorily - until I found the answers myself, worked them out for myself, but this was also appearing more and more often through inspirational forces.
 +
| Mein ganz spezielles Interesse galt schon von sehr früher Kindheit an dem Leben in allen seinen Belangen. Dazu gehörten auch die Zusammenhänge mit der Natur und allem Schöpferischen überhaupt, worin natürlich auch tiefgründige philosophische Aspekte miteinbezogen waren. Das Schöpferische an und für sich sowie im besonderen jedoch war von ganz speziellem Wert für mich, so es für mich das hauptsächlichste Gedankengebiet darstellte. So vertiefte ich mich bei jeder möglichen Gelegenheit in diese weitumfassenden Belange und stiess auf Fragen, die mir von den Erwachsenen nicht oder nur teilweise und nie befriedigend beantwortet werden konnten - bis ich dann eben jeweils die Antworten selbst fand, herausgearbeitet aus mir selbst, jedoch auch immer öfter in Erscheinung tretend durch irgendwelche inspirative Kräfte.

| So my knowledge about the creative, spiritual and conscious, as well as about the creational laws and recommendations, increased more and more, from which it resulted that these things became to predominate a part of my life. This in turn led me to become aware of myself and to realise that I had a mission to fulfil in this field here on earth, which is of great importance for the evolution of the earth folk in a spiritual-conscious way. So I began to fathom the how, where and why of this fact and found out through this that I had already been active in this mission for many millions, even thousands of millions of years, over countless incarnations. I realised that I was a learned and instructed teacher in matters related to the 'teaching of the mind', 'teaching of consciousness', 'teaching of the creational-natural laws and recommendations' and 'teaching of evolution' etc., and this was the path I had to take. I had to go the way of mission fulfilment, but first of all I needed a great help from human beings that were not of earthly nature, but of high spiritual as well as of a material-external nature. So in the course of time I was given this help so that I could begin to fulfil my life's mission. This help came when I was a little boy who didn't even go to school. It came from the depths of another world's space, in the form of an extraterrestrial, who became my first high teacher and through whom I gained in a short time an immense knowledge in relation to creation and its laws and recommendations as well as the laws of nature and the facts and connections of mind and material consciousness, etc.

| So stieg mein Wissen um das Schöpferische, Geistige und Bewusstseinsmässige sowie um die schöpferischen Gesetze und Gebote immer weiter an, woraus sich ergab, dass diese Dinge zum überwiegenden Teil meines Lebens wurden. Das wiederum führte dann dazu, dass ich mir meiner selbst bewusst wurde und erkannte, dass ich auf diesem Gebiet hier auf der Erde eine Mission zu erfüllen hatte, die von bedeutender Wichtigkeit für die Evolution der Erdenmenschen in geistig-bewusstseinsmässiger Hinsicht ist. Also begann ich das Wie, Wo und Warum dieser Tatsache zu ergründen und fand heraus, dass ich in dieser Mission schon seit vielen Jahrmillionen und gar Jahrmilliarden tätig war, über unzählige Reinkarnationen hinweg. Ich erkannte, dass ich ein gelehrter und belehrter Künder war in Sachen 'Lehre des Geistes', 'Lehre des Bewusstseins', 'Lehre der schöpferisch-natürlichen Gesetze und Gebote' und 'Lehre der Evolution' usw. Und diesen Weg musste ich beschreiten. Ich musste den Weg der Missionserfüllung gehen, doch dazu bedurfte ich erstlich einer grossen Hilfe von Wesenheiten, die nicht irdischer Natur waren, sondern hoher geistförmiger sowie auch materiell-ausserirdischer Natur. Also ergab es sich im Laufe der Zeit, dass mir diese Hilfe zuteil wurde, so ich meine Mission zu erfüllen beginnen konnte. Und diese Hilfe kam, als ich noch ein kleiner Junge war, der noch nicht einmal zur Schule ging. Sie kam aus den Tiefen des Weltenraumes in Form eines Ausserirdischen, der mein erster hoher Lehrer war und durch den ich in kurzer Zeit ein immenses Wissen erlangte im Bezuge auf die Schöpfung und ihre Gesetze und Gebote sowie die Naturgesetze und die Fakten und Zusammenhänge des Geistes und des materiellen Bewusstseins usw.

|- style="vertical-align:top;"

| In the course of time I became acquainted with the history of the past of my spirit-form, which over many billions of years and reincarnations had appeared again and again as a new personality on different worlds of different galaxies in the wide universe as a teacher and missionary in matters of the teaching of the spirit, the creation, the life, the creational-natural laws and recommendations and the evolution. I recognised that the earliest personality of my spirit-form was called Nokodemjon and had already entered the pure spirit plane Arahat Athersata, but from there it returned to the material worlds and began the instructive mission that continues to this day and will continue for a very long time to come. Over the course of further Nokodemjon reincarnations i.e. my spiritual form, I became other personalities, who e.g. bore names like Henok and Enoch etc., and who were born again and again as new personalities until today, whereby however the spiritual form always remained the same. And so for the time being, the present, the last rebirth of this spirit-form is my current personality, as 'Billy' Eduard Albert Meier, to whom I am teaching the doctrine of the spirit among Earth-humans as an announcer of modern times, and to whom I am a contact person on earth to folks of extraterrestrial origin, namely to extraterrestrials who call themselves Plejaren in their own language, while they are called Pleiadians in the earthly languages. Their home worlds are the Pleiades, which are located about 80 light-years beyond our known Pleiades in another dimensioned universe, in another space-time-structure, shifted to our universe by a fraction of a second. The Pleiades in the constellation of Taurus, which are located in our universe are 62 million years old and still much too young, and as blazing fireballs, incapable of carrying any material or immaterial forms of life - not even purely spiritual ones.
 +
| Im Laufe der Zeit lernte ich die Geschichte der Vergangenheit meiner Geistform kennen, die über viele Jahrmilliarden und Reinkarnationen hinweg immer wieder als neue Persönlichkeit auf verschiedenen Welten verschiedener Galaxien im weiten Universum in Erscheinung getreten war als Lehrer und Missionsausübender in Sachen der Lehre des Geistes, der Schöpfung, des Lebens, der schöpferisch-natürlichen Gesetze und Gebote und der Evolution. Ich erkannte, dass die früheste Persönlichkeit meiner Geistform den Namen Nokodemjon trug und bereits eingegangen war in die Reingeistebene Arahat Athersata, von wo aus sie jedoch in die materiellen Welten zurückkehrte und die belehrende Mission begann, die bis heute andauert und noch sehr lange Zeit andauern wird. Im Laufe weiterer Reinkarnationen wurde Nokodemjon resp. seine Geistform zu anderen Persönlichkeiten, die z.B. Namen wie Henok und Henoch usw. trugen und die bis in die heutige Zeit immer wieder als neue Persönlichkeiten geboren wurden, wobei jedoch die Geistform immer dieselbe blieb. Und so ist die vorerst gegenwärtig letzte Wiedergeburt dieser Geistform meine Persönlichkeit als 'Billy' Eduard Albert Meier, der ich als Künder der Neuzeit neuerlich die Lehre des Geistes belehre unter den Erdenmenschen, und der ich eine Kontaktperson auf der Erde zu Menschen ausserirdischer Herkunft bin, und zwar zu Ausserirdischen, die sich selbst Plejaren nennen in ihrer eigenen Sprache, während sie in den irdischen Sprachen Plejadier genannt werden. Ihre Heimatwelten sind die Plejaren resp. Plejaden, die sich rund 80 Lichtjahre jenseits unserer bekannten Plejadengestirne in einem andersdimensionierten Universum befinden, in einem zu unserem Universum um einen Sekundenbruchteil verschobenen anderen Raum-Zeit-Gefüge. Die sich in unserem Universum befindenden Plejadengestirne im Sternbild Stier nämlich sind mit 62 Millionen Jahren noch viel zu jung und als lodernde Feuerbälle unfähig, irgendwelche materielle oder immaterielle Lebensformen zu tragen - auch keine rein geistigen.

| When I had to struggle with hindrances of every kind, when I very arduously confronted my existence, when the powers of my thoughts and feelings and the powers of my will and of the body threatened to leave me, the morale and all hope began to sink and in me everything became very and endlessly difficult for me to persevere in life and to unwaveringly do my duty and fulfil my responsibility, then I searched for my most secret fine-spiritual perceptions and feelings, which whispered to me like a quiet breath, that down here on Earth there are unspeakably few glad and satisfied human beings, because they are all pursued by immeasurable grief and anguish and also problems and worries, which they are not able to master. How very much worse off than I so the cognition always grew in me must these human beings be. However, like me, they all can only find their way out of all their hardship if they do good work in themselves, if they devote themselves to reflection and, through this, to the source of cognition, which produces a liberation from all hardships and evils, from grief, anguish, problems and worries. This cognition rests in the real visualisation of all things, that everything is worth living, namely, both the negative and the positive and that only the living of that which is pleasant and also that which is unpleasant makes life worth living and brings immeasurable experiences, living-experiences and values. The mission of life, namely, to evolve in consciousness, and the fulfilment of this mission, is the wellspring from which the sorrowful, the grief-stricken as well as the anguish-plagued, the problem-afflicted and the work-burdened and worry-sick human being constantly produces new powers, moments of calm and recovery, joy, love, harmony and peace. This is my cognition and it teaches me that, when good is consciously done, then that which is good becomes ever-present.

| Wenn ich mit Hindernissen aller Art zu ringen hatte, wenn ich mich sehr mühsam meinem Dasein entgegenstemmte, wenn mich die Kräfte meiner Gedanken und Gefühle und die Kräfte meines Willen und des Körpers zu verlassen drohten, die Moral und alle Hoffnung zu sinken begannen und in mir alles sehr und unendlich schwer wurde, um im Leben auszuharren und unbeirrt meine Pflicht zu tun und meine Verantwortung wahrzunehmen,  dann suchte ich nach meinen geheimsten Empfindungen und Gefühlen, die mir wie ein leiser Hauch zuflüsterten, dass es hienieden auf Erden unsagbar wenige frohe und zufriedene Menschen gibt, weil sie alle von unermesslichem Gram und Kummer sowie von Problemen und Sorgen verfolgt werden, denen sie nicht Herr zu werden vermögen. Wie sehr viel schlimmer als ich so wuchs stets die Erkenntnis in mir müssen doch diese Menschen dran sein. Doch wie ich, können sie alle aus ihrem ganzen Ungemach nur herausfinden, wenn sie in sich Gutes wirken, wenn sie sich der Besinnung und sich durch diese der Quelle der Erkenntnis hingeben, die eine  Befreiung von allen Nöten und Übeln, von Gram, Kummer, Problemen und Sorgen schafft. Diese Erkenntnis ruht in der realen Veranschaulichung aller Dinge, dass alles lebenswert ist, und zwar sowohl das Negative wie auch das Positive, und dass erst das Ausleben des Erfreulichen wie Unerfreulichen das Leben lebenswert macht und unermessliche Erfahrungen, Erlebnisse und Werte bringt. Die Mission des Lebens, nämlich im Bewusstsein zu evolutionieren, und die Erfüllung dieser Mission ist die Quelle, aus der der sorgenvolle der gramgebeugte sowie der kummergeplagte, der problembedrückte sowie der arbeitsbelastete und sorgenkranke Mensch stetig neue Kräfte, Augenblicke der Ruhe und Erholung, der Freude, Liebe, Harmonie und des Friedens schöpft. Das ist meine Erkenntnis, und diese lehrt mich, dass, wenn bewusst Gutes gewirkt wird, dann das Gute allgegenwärtig wird.

<div style="text-align:justify">"History first mentions the village of Hinwil, Switzerland in a document dated 745. Thirty miles southeast of Zurich, it nestles in a landscape of rolling green hills pocketed by large islands of forest a hundred feet tall, with the Alps rising in the distance. Hinwil itself, perhaps, would disappoint the tourist looking for the charm of alpine architecture: though chalk-white chalets shuttered in green rise from the village core and scatter among the hills, many stark buildings constructed of concrete have risen in their midst. They resemble not so much the quaint cottages in travel brochures as they do utilitarian apartment buildings erected in the 1950s and '60s in the United States.

But a short distance from the village center, along the street Wihaldenstrasse, stands a three-story farmhouse built a hundred years ago. During the mid-1970s, summer grape vines climbed the sunny south wall of the old house. Flowers filled a stone water trough to the north near the entrance, and small birds fluttered in an aviary built of wood and wire. To the south and east of the house lay a small green field, and to the north and west stood more of the cold, institutional apartment buildings.

Meier had kept a cage out back filled with nearly two hundred birds. He had been employed then as a night guard and, consequently, was often at home during the day. But many people in the neighbourhood avoided talking to Meier because he was "different." He spoke a great deal about Moses and said things other people did not understand. Julios and Erika Kagi knew the Meiers better than other neighbours did because they had a daughter the same age as Nina and the two girls often played together. "He had a terrific fantasy," remembered Erika Kagi, "and I could not agree with his philosophy. But he was not a bad person. He was not even odd; he just had his own ideas and believed whatever he said." Said another neighbor, "Meier lives the way he wants to and does not adapt to anyone else's way of living."

Meier had only one arm. His left arm had been severed just above the elbow in a bus accident in 1965, as he traveled from India, through Turkey, and back to Switzerland. Still, when part of the barn adjacent to the small house collapsed, Julios Kagi saw Meier rebuild the wall alone by holding the boards in place with his shoulder stump while he positioned and pounded nails with his one hand.

* Billy is a private man despite how that may initially seem. He doesn't appear to enjoy the attention, pressures and idolisation associated with the public spotlight. He hasn't avoided it entirely, but when interviews have been conducted they've been low-key, general conversation, intimate, thoughtful and informal. Many of the readers of this information have found that quite refreshing and appreciated it, because the information presentation itself talks enough. Thousands of additional questions were answered by (and via) [[Christian Frehner]] on the FIGU forum. It can in any case be learned by a speaker who can then answer questions, often quite complicated questions. [[Michael Horn]] and many others in further languages, at various times have stepped forward and assumed this talking role for him. It's a delicately precise arrangement of information, requiring a plentiful thoughtful approach, focus, concentration etc., and few for that reason have ever wanted it turning into a zoo etc. It's more of an educational study type of environment (as a community) by demand rather than by force. <span class="mw-customtoggle-commisbm"><small><small>[show/hide]</small></small></span>

* Billy must take the precaution to not allow the knowledge of how and at what point in time he will depart from all others unexpectedly and unassumingly from the worldly living area, so that an idol would not be made of him, if the dates would come to be known. Its only allowed to be known that he will again, in around 800 years, be the centre point of this innermost group, as this already existed in earlier times on various occasions and also exists today.<ref>[[Contact_Report_72]] lines 33 - 37</ref>

While those that read a sensationalist stupid summary from a newspaper, comment on social media or petty discovery channel documentary segment tend to lean toward it being like any and all the other shod available for ufo entertainment purposes. Unfortunately the time it takes to read and examine it takes far too long for most readers.

==Billy Meier informal Q&A==
+
==Source==

* [http://us.figu.org/portal/BillyMeier/tabid/55/Default.aspx FIGU.org]
'''Q: Why do Plejaren visit Billy on his birthday consistently (it seems) if they don’t celebrate annual commemorations themselves?'''
 
 
 
A: When on Earth they do as the Earth folks do, follow our scheduled events, Billy's in this case.<sup>[citation needed]</sup> It would make no sense for them to continue to work to the beat of their ordinary drum, would it, aside that it establishes a seasonal rhythm. However there are further reasons, Billy has a special date and time according to explanations given by [[The High Council]] / [[Arahat Athersata]].<sup>[citation needed]</sup> They tend to bring new seams of knowledge to Billy on his birthday,<sup>[citation needed]</sup> thus why his birthday [[Contact Reports]] are found to be of interest to most readers. The reason new, particularly pertinent, interesting things are introduced to him, on his birthday every year, may have further significance. This may be an area you wish to research some more if it interests you, check. It seems to be such an annually consistent visit that [[Kalliope Meier]] (ex-wife) even accidentally saw Ptaah on Billy's 1979 birthday, see [[Contact Report 119]] ''after line 85'' for that event. An additional reading of it, for those who don’t have to over rationalise everything, could be considered a gift and way of Plejaren symbolising their observing of remembering and appreciation for him.
 
 
 
'''Q: Is there anything wrong with the Plejaren communicating with Billy or anyone for that matter?'''
 
 
 
A: Probably, they would be allowed to do it if not. They would communicate with a much broader diversity of individuals if there was not problems, but then again this is the first time it has happened in recorded history in a tasteful and sensible way which borders reality. One problem which occurs is that the world brands the individual a preposterously insane raving lunatic and economically sanctions the individual, similar to a modern day witch trial. Others try to assasinate the character, credibility even the life itself. There are so many weird reactions to Billy’s contacteeism that we are surprised its associated symptoms have been spared being listed in a medical journal. At any rate the knowledge the Plejaren have given Billy has diabolically broken the economics of life for him, it’s catapulted him out of a normal relationship with the world he lives on and time lives in, which isn’t for everyone. It may have caused him other more personal problems, such as loneliness and other things which he has thoughtfully written about. He’s certainly been the right one for it though. See [[Why Billy Meier?]].
 
 
 
'''Q: In a contact report the extraterrestrials tell Eduard that [[Kalliope Meier]] (ex-wife) never loved him. Did they have children in a non-loving relationship together?'''
 
 
 
A: We are not sure about that personal and legal status information of Eduards offspring, but it has been investigated and published at some time in the past by researchers. If it’s a yes, it’s their children together, then yes they did have children together in a non-loving relationship, as the only consequence of a result like that the only answer could be yes. It is a particularly common component of Billy’s interesting life actually, because divorce and separation is well known throughout the world, that doesn’t however mean we endorse it, in fact on an overpopulated world we currently only endorse childless marriages/divorces/partnerships because overpopulation is going to really cause a big problem now. The only interesting part of it is that he was told about their separation and her betrayal many years before.
 
 
 
'''Q: Social mobility, loyalty and economic prime; how did Billy break the rules like that?'''
 
 
 
A: The [[Plejaren]] were somehow involved, but it was very tough for him too. Yes usually a well paid career is for decades and there is very little opportunity to do anything different with the time, too worn down after retirement, to the death. With Billy he had a very interesting colourful life, incredibly interesting and varied. This allowed many diverse roles and jobs but unfortunately a very low wage and rate of compensation which fluctuated as well as an inflexibility to negotiate all terms and a general uncertainty. But it was not so consistent with Billy, because he managed to manoeuvre himself into various positions high and low, and then was able to afford the [[SSSC]] and several other things, such as time to research and write extensive [[Books]]. It is not possible to do what Billy has for the majority of persons, it would be very difficult, that is true, it is another interesting feature of authenticity for us.
 
 
 
'''Q: India is not exactly known for any particularly valueable achievement in all of history, why again did Eduard and Plejaren spend so much time there again?'''
 
 
 
A: We don’t know why actually because it is a rarely researched area of knowledge, probably because it’s not as interesting as other stages of Billy’s interesting life, but we think it is a spiritual connection because Eduard in previous personalities spent time in the India region of the world. If it is as we think then the question is related to [[Reincarnation]] and personal connections. We think they may believe in equality too, but we are not sure exactly why, whether there was any political motives behind it, whether they wanted to embarrass the Indian people in front of the whole world, we just dont know about all the circumstances behind it. Research it some more and check. Also be very careful if you sincerely asked such a question because the vast majority of the world was colonised just a few hundred years ago and was not even known before that much less known for some particularly pertinent achievement. India’s greatest achievement is surely just the simple fact that it’s existed longer.

...according to Islam, I am a religious non-believer and, from the perspective of Christianity, a heretic and atheist, or, from a different and sectarian perspective, one who is lost and a candidate for Hell and so forth, because I distance myself from all religious and sectarian belief.

As a result, I have not succumbed to the God delusion, which is hammered, in an indoctrinating manner, into the believers, through the false teachings of religions and all their sects.

Introduction

The short biography page offers a brief text about the course of the life of 'Billy' Eduard Albert Meier. Brief biographical extracts can also be found below. [show / hide]

  • Biography is an account of someone's life written by someone else. Lengthier biographies are available on the Downloads page under ebooks and 'relevant books by other authors' section.
  • Autobiography is an account of a person's life written by that person. Several of Billy's books are autobiographical but most have not been translated from German, see shop.figu.org.
  • Interviews are face to face recorded discussion. They are typically informal in a casual setting with Billy, both because we and he himself prefers it that way and its more comfortable. The Interviews with Billy page has some. However Billy has given more formal interviews for television and media in the past, see downloads, ebooks, 'relevant newspaper and magazine articles by other authors' section for a limited selection and other are available on Youtube.
  • Memoirs is a historical account or autobiography written from personal knowledge. See Books section and shop.figu.org. Less of these texts have been translated into English because Eduard's written works about humanity have been deemed a higher translation priority divvied among the limited number of translators that exist. If you can read German, enjoy a much richer account of Billy's interesting life.

Who is Billy Meier?

'Billy' Eduard Albert Meier (BEAM), the controversial author and teacher, was born in Bülach, Switzerland on the 3rd of February, 1937 and currently resides at the Semjase-Silver-Star-Center (SSSC), Hinterschmidrüti, Switzerland, which he helped build and establish. For over 80 years he has been regularly communicating face to face and telepathically with extraterrestrial human beings, inadvertently educating him, and publishing that information in glorious detail. As might be envisaged over such a brilliant quantity of time for an unprecedented UFO related happening; they've managed to explain everything in full, clarifying the entire story, with extraordinarily interesting facts, opinions and perspectives emerging over the decades. Making him a thoroughly interesting gentleman. It has all been inciting enough to initiate many thousands of readers from around the world to read into everything and take interest in his story and life. He's had a life rich with all manner of experiences and accomplishments, in many countries, many of which were difficult, many thoroughly normal and boring too, nonetheless personally important and useful for his evolution and mission in life. He is among the very few individuals who have put their entire life out into the public domain, nevertheless he's a relatively private man who averts showmanship - a reasonable amount of his written works have a somewhat serious tone, dealing with substantial matters of importance and worth.

Billy Meier himself about his Mission


Billy Meier selbst über seine Mission

From a very early age, my special interests were about life in all aspects. This included the connections with nature and everything creative in general, which of course incorporated profound philosophical aspects of life. However the creative in and of itself in particular, was of very special value to me, as it represented the most important field of thought for me. So at every possible opportunity I delved into these wide-ranging issues and came across questions that could not be answered by the adults, or only partially and never satisfactorily - until I found the answers myself, worked them out for myself, but this was also appearing more and more often through inspirational forces. Mein ganz spezielles Interesse galt schon von sehr früher Kindheit an dem Leben in allen seinen Belangen. Dazu gehörten auch die Zusammenhänge mit der Natur und allem Schöpferischen überhaupt, worin natürlich auch tiefgründige philosophische Aspekte miteinbezogen waren. Das Schöpferische an und für sich sowie im besonderen jedoch war von ganz speziellem Wert für mich, so es für mich das hauptsächlichste Gedankengebiet darstellte. So vertiefte ich mich bei jeder möglichen Gelegenheit in diese weitumfassenden Belange und stiess auf Fragen, die mir von den Erwachsenen nicht oder nur teilweise und nie befriedigend beantwortet werden konnten - bis ich dann eben jeweils die Antworten selbst fand, herausgearbeitet aus mir selbst, jedoch auch immer öfter in Erscheinung tretend durch irgendwelche inspirative Kräfte.
So my knowledge about the creative, spiritual and conscious, as well as about the creational laws and recommendations, increased more and more, from which it resulted that these things became to predominate a part of my life. This in turn led me to become aware of myself and to realise that I had a mission to fulfil in this field here on earth, which is of great importance for the evolution of the earth folk in a spiritual-conscious way. So I began to fathom the how, where and why of this fact and found out through this that I had already been active in this mission for many millions, even thousands of millions of years, over countless incarnations. I realised that I was a learned and instructed teacher in matters related to the 'teaching of the mind', 'teaching of consciousness', 'teaching of the creational-natural laws and recommendations' and 'teaching of evolution' etc., and this was the path I had to take. I had to go the way of mission fulfilment, but first of all I needed a great help from human beings that were not of earthly nature, but of high spiritual as well as of a material-external nature. So in the course of time I was given this help so that I could begin to fulfil my life's mission. This help came when I was a little boy who didn't even go to school. It came from the depths of another world's space, in the form of an extraterrestrial, who became my first high teacher and through whom I gained in a short time an immense knowledge in relation to creation and its laws and recommendations as well as the laws of nature and the facts and connections of mind and material consciousness, etc. So stieg mein Wissen um das Schöpferische, Geistige und Bewusstseinsmässige sowie um die schöpferischen Gesetze und Gebote immer weiter an, woraus sich ergab, dass diese Dinge zum überwiegenden Teil meines Lebens wurden. Das wiederum führte dann dazu, dass ich mir meiner selbst bewusst wurde und erkannte, dass ich auf diesem Gebiet hier auf der Erde eine Mission zu erfüllen hatte, die von bedeutender Wichtigkeit für die Evolution der Erdenmenschen in geistig-bewusstseinsmässiger Hinsicht ist. Also begann ich das Wie, Wo und Warum dieser Tatsache zu ergründen und fand heraus, dass ich in dieser Mission schon seit vielen Jahrmillionen und gar Jahrmilliarden tätig war, über unzählige Reinkarnationen hinweg. Ich erkannte, dass ich ein gelehrter und belehrter Künder war in Sachen 'Lehre des Geistes', 'Lehre des Bewusstseins', 'Lehre der schöpferisch-natürlichen Gesetze und Gebote' und 'Lehre der Evolution' usw. Und diesen Weg musste ich beschreiten. Ich musste den Weg der Missionserfüllung gehen, doch dazu bedurfte ich erstlich einer grossen Hilfe von Wesenheiten, die nicht irdischer Natur waren, sondern hoher geistförmiger sowie auch materiell-ausserirdischer Natur. Also ergab es sich im Laufe der Zeit, dass mir diese Hilfe zuteil wurde, so ich meine Mission zu erfüllen beginnen konnte. Und diese Hilfe kam, als ich noch ein kleiner Junge war, der noch nicht einmal zur Schule ging. Sie kam aus den Tiefen des Weltenraumes in Form eines Ausserirdischen, der mein erster hoher Lehrer war und durch den ich in kurzer Zeit ein immenses Wissen erlangte im Bezuge auf die Schöpfung und ihre Gesetze und Gebote sowie die Naturgesetze und die Fakten und Zusammenhänge des Geistes und des materiellen Bewusstseins usw.
In the course of time I became acquainted with the history of the past of my spirit-form, which over many billions of years and reincarnations had appeared again and again as a new personality on different worlds of different galaxies in the wide universe as a teacher and missionary in matters of the teaching of the spirit, the creation, the life, the creational-natural laws and recommendations and the evolution. I recognised that the earliest personality of my spirit-form was called Nokodemjon and had already entered the pure spirit plane Arahat Athersata, but from there it returned to the material worlds and began the instructive mission that continues to this day and will continue for a very long time to come. Over the course of further Nokodemjon reincarnations i.e. my spiritual form, I became other personalities, who e.g. bore names like Henok and Enoch etc., and who were born again and again as new personalities until today, whereby however the spiritual form always remained the same. And so for the time being, the present, the last rebirth of this spirit-form is my current personality, as 'Billy' Eduard Albert Meier, to whom I am teaching the doctrine of the spirit among Earth-humans as an announcer of modern times, and to whom I am a contact person on earth to folks of extraterrestrial origin, namely to extraterrestrials who call themselves Plejaren in their own language, while they are called Pleiadians in the earthly languages. Their home worlds are the Pleiades, which are located about 80 light-years beyond our known Pleiades in another dimensioned universe, in another space-time-structure, shifted to our universe by a fraction of a second. The Pleiades in the constellation of Taurus, which are located in our universe are 62 million years old and still much too young, and as blazing fireballs, incapable of carrying any material or immaterial forms of life - not even purely spiritual ones. Im Laufe der Zeit lernte ich die Geschichte der Vergangenheit meiner Geistform kennen, die über viele Jahrmilliarden und Reinkarnationen hinweg immer wieder als neue Persönlichkeit auf verschiedenen Welten verschiedener Galaxien im weiten Universum in Erscheinung getreten war als Lehrer und Missionsausübender in Sachen der Lehre des Geistes, der Schöpfung, des Lebens, der schöpferisch-natürlichen Gesetze und Gebote und der Evolution. Ich erkannte, dass die früheste Persönlichkeit meiner Geistform den Namen Nokodemjon trug und bereits eingegangen war in die Reingeistebene Arahat Athersata, von wo aus sie jedoch in die materiellen Welten zurückkehrte und die belehrende Mission begann, die bis heute andauert und noch sehr lange Zeit andauern wird. Im Laufe weiterer Reinkarnationen wurde Nokodemjon resp. seine Geistform zu anderen Persönlichkeiten, die z.B. Namen wie Henok und Henoch usw. trugen und die bis in die heutige Zeit immer wieder als neue Persönlichkeiten geboren wurden, wobei jedoch die Geistform immer dieselbe blieb. Und so ist die vorerst gegenwärtig letzte Wiedergeburt dieser Geistform meine Persönlichkeit als 'Billy' Eduard Albert Meier, der ich als Künder der Neuzeit neuerlich die Lehre des Geistes belehre unter den Erdenmenschen, und der ich eine Kontaktperson auf der Erde zu Menschen ausserirdischer Herkunft bin, und zwar zu Ausserirdischen, die sich selbst Plejaren nennen in ihrer eigenen Sprache, während sie in den irdischen Sprachen Plejadier genannt werden. Ihre Heimatwelten sind die Plejaren resp. Plejaden, die sich rund 80 Lichtjahre jenseits unserer bekannten Plejadengestirne in einem andersdimensionierten Universum befinden, in einem zu unserem Universum um einen Sekundenbruchteil verschobenen anderen Raum-Zeit-Gefüge. Die sich in unserem Universum befindenden Plejadengestirne im Sternbild Stier nämlich sind mit 62 Millionen Jahren noch viel zu jung und als lodernde Feuerbälle unfähig, irgendwelche materielle oder immaterielle Lebensformen zu tragen - auch keine rein geistigen.

Good Work ...


Gutes Wirken ...

When I had to struggle with hindrances of every kind, when I very arduously confronted my existence, when the powers of my thoughts and feelings and the powers of my will and of the body threatened to leave me, the morale and all hope began to sink and in me everything became very and endlessly difficult for me to persevere in life and to unwaveringly do my duty and fulfil my responsibility, then I searched for my most secret fine-spiritual perceptions and feelings, which whispered to me like a quiet breath, that down here on Earth there are unspeakably few glad and satisfied human beings, because they are all pursued by immeasurable grief and anguish and also problems and worries, which they are not able to master. How very much worse off than I – so the cognition always grew in me – must these human beings be. However, like me, they all can only find their way out of all their hardship if they do good work in themselves, if they devote themselves to reflection and, through this, to the source of cognition, which produces a liberation from all hardships and evils, from grief, anguish, problems and worries. This cognition rests in the real visualisation of all things, that everything is worth living, namely, both the negative and the positive and that only the living of that which is pleasant and also that which is unpleasant makes life worth living and brings immeasurable experiences, living-experiences and values. The mission of life, namely, to evolve in consciousness, and the fulfilment of this mission, is the wellspring from which the sorrowful, the grief-stricken as well as the anguish-plagued, the problem-afflicted and the work-burdened and worry-sick human being constantly produces new powers, moments of calm and recovery, joy, love, harmony and peace. This is my cognition and it teaches me that, when good is consciously done, then that which is good becomes ever-present. Wenn ich mit Hindernissen aller Art zu ringen hatte, wenn ich mich sehr mühsam meinem Dasein entgegenstemmte, wenn mich die Kräfte meiner Gedanken und Gefühle und die Kräfte meines Willen und des Körpers zu verlassen drohten, die Moral und alle Hoffnung zu sinken begannen und in mir alles sehr und unendlich schwer wurde, um im Leben auszuharren und unbeirrt meine Pflicht zu tun und meine Verantwortung wahrzunehmen, dann suchte ich nach meinen geheimsten Empfindungen und Gefühlen, die mir wie ein leiser Hauch zuflüsterten, dass es hienieden auf Erden unsagbar wenige frohe und zufriedene Menschen gibt, weil sie alle von unermesslichem Gram und Kummer sowie von Problemen und Sorgen verfolgt werden, denen sie nicht Herr zu werden vermögen. Wie sehr viel schlimmer als ich – so wuchs stets die Erkenntnis in mir – müssen doch diese Menschen dran sein. Doch wie ich, können sie alle aus ihrem ganzen Ungemach nur herausfinden, wenn sie in sich Gutes wirken, wenn sie sich der Besinnung und sich durch diese der Quelle der Erkenntnis hingeben, die eine Befreiung von allen Nöten und Übeln, von Gram, Kummer, Problemen und Sorgen schafft. Diese Erkenntnis ruht in der realen Veranschaulichung aller Dinge, dass alles lebenswert ist, und zwar sowohl das Negative wie auch das Positive, und dass erst das Ausleben des Erfreulichen wie Unerfreulichen das Leben lebenswert macht und unermessliche Erfahrungen, Erlebnisse und Werte bringt. Die Mission des Lebens, nämlich im Bewusstsein zu evolutionieren, und die Erfüllung dieser Mission ist die Quelle, aus der der sorgenvolle der gramgebeugte sowie der kummergeplagte, der problembedrückte sowie der arbeitsbelastete und sorgenkranke Mensch stetig neue Kräfte, Augenblicke der Ruhe und Erholung, der Freude, Liebe, Harmonie und des Friedens schöpft. Das ist meine Erkenntnis, und diese lehrt mich, dass, wenn bewusst Gutes gewirkt wird, dann das Gute allgegenwärtig wird.

Light Years by Gary Kinder (Excerpt)

A description of Eduard Meier found in a book called Light Years written by Gary Kinder which is all about him and his life; in section One A.


"History first mentions the village of Hinwil, Switzerland in a document dated 745. Thirty miles southeast of Zurich, it nestles in a landscape of rolling green hills pocketed by large islands of forest a hundred feet tall, with the Alps rising in the distance. Hinwil itself, perhaps, would disappoint the tourist looking for the charm of alpine architecture: though chalk-white chalets shuttered in green rise from the village core and scatter among the hills, many stark buildings constructed of concrete have risen in their midst. They resemble not so much the quaint cottages in travel brochures as they do utilitarian apartment buildings erected in the 1950s and '60s in the United States.

But a short distance from the village center, along the street Wihaldenstrasse, stands a three-story farmhouse built a hundred years ago. During the mid-1970s, summer grape vines climbed the sunny south wall of the old house. Flowers filled a stone water trough to the north near the entrance, and small birds fluttered in an aviary built of wood and wire. To the south and east of the house lay a small green field, and to the north and west stood more of the cold, institutional apartment buildings.

The community of Hinwil had acquired the old farm years before and built the surrounding apartments to house senior citizens. Though the farmhouse someday soon would be torn down to make room for more apartments, the community now rented the house for a nominal sum to an unemployed night watchman, Eduard Meier. Meier lived in the house with his Greek wife, Kaliope, nicknamed Popi, and three small children-a girl, Nina, a boy, Atlantis, and the baby, Bashenko. They had been living in the house since December 1973 though they had lived elsewhere in Hinwil for two years.

Meier, a man of thirty-seven, had a sixth-grade education. He was not a very big man, maybe five feet, seven inches tall, but he was thick-chested and strong. His face was handsome, set off by unusual greenish-hazel eyes. According to village records, Meier's professions were "bird breeder, iron layer, night watchman." He held a permit to carry a gun because he had once worked as night security in a factory.

[continue reading]

In a former house, a tiny three-room row house contiguous to the Hinwil village museum,

Meier had kept a cage out back filled with nearly two hundred birds. He had been employed then as a night guard and, consequently, was often at home during the day. But many people in the neighbourhood avoided talking to Meier because he was "different." He spoke a great deal about Moses and said things other people did not understand. Julios and Erika Kagi knew the Meiers better than other neighbours did because they had a daughter the same age as Nina and the two girls often played together. "He had a terrific fantasy," remembered Erika Kagi, "and I could not agree with his philosophy. But he was not a bad person. He was not even odd; he just had his own ideas and believed whatever he said." Said another neighbor, "Meier lives the way he wants to and does not adapt to anyone else's way of living."

Meier had only one arm. His left arm had been severed just above the elbow in a bus accident in 1965, as he traveled from India, through Turkey, and back to Switzerland. Still, when part of the barn adjacent to the small house collapsed, Julios Kagi saw Meier rebuild the wall alone by holding the boards in place with his shoulder stump while he positioned and pounded nails with his one hand. "He was faster with one hand than other people are with two," recalled Kagi.

Again out of a job, Meier now supported his family on the 700 francs provided him every month by the government for the loss of his arm. To supplement their income, the Meiers kept chickens in the attic of the old farmhouse, and Popi sold eggs to the neighbors. To neighbors living in the apartment buildings overlooking the front door of the farmhouse, Meier seemed to be always home. In a culture that values hard work and conformity, the neighbors saw him as a singular and idle man, often lost in thought, as though the weight of the world rested upon his shoulders, and they began to talk.

Then, on the afternoon of 28 January, 1975, a cold day but warmer than most at that time of the year, Eduard Meier left the farmhouse on his moped, towing a tiny wagon behind him. He wound through the streets of Hinwil, steering with one hand, the empty left sleeve of his leather jacket jerking in the wind. Working his way out of town, he eventually came to a country road, which he followed for a time, then disappeared into the forest of a nature conservancy. A few hours later, he returned to the farmhouse without telling anyone where he had been.

Several days passed, during which the neighbours saw Meier dawdling around the house, seemingly as always without purpose. Then, one afternoon, he again pulled his moped from a storage room, pedalled it down the driveway until the tiny motor kicked over, and rode through the village out into the country. Soon, he was lost from view in another of the islands of forest surrounding Hinwil. When he returned, as before, he told no one where he had been or why he had been there. But the Swiss are observant and curious people, and the neighbours noted his peculiar comings and goings.

Within weeks, Meier was travelling regularly into the forest, guiding his moped with one hand, the tiny wagon behind. Each trip seemed to take him along a new path in a new direction through town and out into the country highways, often for as long as an hour. Later, many of his trips took him into the hills. Sometimes, he would disappear in the early afternoon and not be seen again before supper; other times, he would sneak from the house at one or two in the morning and not return till dawn.

"He had to go away again and again," Popi remembered. "He would come home for five minutes, fix himself a cup of coffee, and hop, he was gone again. It was bad at night. You'd be sleeping peacefully and the kids were quiet in bed. All of a sudden, he would get up, get dressed, and be gone. You know? You think your husband is lying in bed next to you, but he is gone. I did not know anything. All he said was that he was going to work."

As the weeks passed, Meier's journeys through town and into the forests began to occur three, four, even five times a week. And his frequent departures rubbed against the grain of order and routine so conscientiously observed by his neighbours. The more he disappeared, the more they talked.

"The people in the neighbourhood didn't know any thing about what was going on," said Popi, "but they were very curious. They could tell me, to the minute, when he left on his moped and when he came back. It was always the same questions. 'Why did he come home so late?' Sometimes he got up in the middle of the night and left, so they would hear the moped. And when he did this, it was even worse with the people the next day. 'Why did he leave last night?' 'Where did he go?' I would say nothing. I wasn't interested. They are just Schnuriwiiber [gossips]."

On clear nights, neighbours living in the apartment building just above the farmhouse saw Meier standing in the alleyway to the west and watching the sky through binoculars for hours. On nights when he did not leave the house, neighbours to the east saw a light burning on the second floor late into the night.

A week, a month, maybe two months passed, Popi could not remember. Then, one afternoon, as the two of them stood in the small living room on the second floor of the house, her husband handed her photographs.

"What do you think of this?" he asked.

But Popi only stared at the pictures.

"I was shocked," she recalled, "because I saw something completely new, and I did not want to believe that this existed. He said nothing at all. Didn't explain. Not one word." Her husband merely picked up the pictures and left the room, as Popi yelled at him for wasting his time taking pictures when money for the family was so scarce.

Meier next took the photographs to his friend Jakobus Bertschinger, whom he had met while working at the Piatti gravel pit years earlier. Though Jakobus was twelve years younger than Meier, the two men had struck up a lasting friendship. They spent much time together, talking about Meier's experiences during the twelve years he had travelled back and forth through India and the Middle East. But Jakobus, too, seemed confused by the photographs Meier showed to him. He even laughed, but he promised to help his friend in any way he could. With a loan from Jakobus, Meier placed a small classified ad in the German publication Esotera. The ad solicited people interested in forming a group to discuss natural life, logic, and truth-things "metaphysical."

Several more months passed. Through the summer and fall of 1975, the neighbours along Wihaldenstrasse watched Meier continue his frequent trips into the foothills and forests at all times of the day and night. On his little green moped, he often was seen at the edge of the open road, putt-putting along, twenty, maybe twenty-five miles an hour, passed constantly by the much larger and faster automobiles. But then, something new entered Meier's routine: one Saturday afternoon, a half-dozen cars appeared at the farmhouse and remained till late at night.

The neighbours did not understand why people came to see this man. He was poor and handicapped, with an unkempt wife who spoke little of their language. He did not work, and his habits seemed strange. But over the weeks and months, not only did the visitors continue to come, but their numbers increased. In the tiny parlor on the second story, the man with the single arm and unusual hazel eyes spoke to these people for hours. When they left, the neighbours heard Popi screaming at him. For many months, the neighbours watched Meier disappear frequently at odd hours and saw the cars on Saturday afternoons filling the narrow alleyway, running alongside No. 10 Wihaldenstrasse, and spilling onto the streets of Hinwil."
