Thank you for the welcome. As you are a danish citizen I assume you are
familiar with the danish theosophist and liberal catholic bishop Otto
Viking (1885-1966). He is a good example of the connection between
theosophy and the early UFO movement. Viking was very interested in claims
of contact with alien intelligences and even wrote a novel in 1961 En klode
griber ind, english title A World Intervenes (Exposition Press, 1964). It
is a rather exciting story where two danish citizens become members of a
secret society of Venusians hiding on earth. They are taken to their
retreat and taught the ancient wisdom to help earth evolution. As you
understand swedish you can read more on Otto Viking on my blog:

I hope the danish theosophists have saved Otto Vikings´ books, journals och
correspondence for future study och research.
