It's pretty much the present background tale to the UFO/UAP scenarios:
That every mythology, magical treatise, and religious, occult, or otherwise spiritual experience, UFO experience, etc, are all aspects of reality tuned to the capabilities of our perceptions.
The running theory being that they're all the same thing, but rather incorporeal—based on yet-unknown physical principles involving consciousness or the larger reality we reside in and either manifesting from our own consciousness or another consciousness outside of material reality.
Of course, such a theory—while fantastical and exciting—is a pretty clever catch-all.
Catch up on any modern UFO reading and that's where it all points. And probably fairly, given the kinds of endeavours various defence agencies and their investigations. I think it also follows Jacques Vallée's theories, but I haven't actually read any of his books or papers. I'm intrigued, but not enough to wade too deeply.
There are blog posts and online-forum-wiz expoundings galore.

- 52-6F-62 5y agoNo idea what you're saying. Who is "the chimp troupe"?
- soylentcola 5y agoOr perhaps it's just in our nature to see agency in the unknown. The form it takes just reflects our cultural expectations and world view du jour.
- 52-6F-62 5y agoI don't know any better than you. I'm just reporting that OP's notions are already the core thread of some UFOlogists of the past ~40-50 years (and beyond). The idea that it is all essentially a projection/emanations from a singular core consciousness (a la gnosticism or neoplatonism) is not unexplored, nor contradictory to your own statement. That's why it's clever; as a theory it can virtually explain anything. It just requires a level of faith on par with any other belief system.
