4.3.5  Menara

Menara - a girl from Vega system to take over contact   61.177-190

                Semjase tell Meier that in a few minutes, another of their ships will land which will appear unfamiliar to him.  It belongs to one of their other races and will be commanded by Menara (pronounced Men-ah-ra).  She is a girl from the planet Deron in the Vega System.  Menara will be taking over the contacts with him, starting next time until the end of the year so that she and Quetzal can return to their home world for a vacation.  Semjase plans to leave the Earth on the 15th of August.  They will meet once more before then and she may visit some time again.  She notices that Meier is feeling very sad and says that she regrets it as she feels the same way.  He tells her not to weep and she says that such feelings are difficult to control.  She tells him that Menara is very pretty, very dark-skinned, and flashing with a delight for life.  They will understand one another very well. 

Menara - 10 centimeters shorter than Semjase            61.M1-8

                While Meier and Semjase are talking, Menara comes down the anti-gravity tube.  Meier notices how very pretty she is.  Her skin is extremely dark colored with a shade of brown.  She is about 10 centimeters shorter than Semjase and has Negroid features.  Semjase and Menara talk for some time while Meier gets an impression of her.  Semjase introduces Menara to Meier.  Menara says that he has been studying her very intently and asks if he has sensed her love and greeting.  He responds by saying that she talks like a saint.  He says that he enjoys meeting her and he welcomes her to the world of the lowly beings.  Menara is totally perplexed and does not understand what he means.  Then, Semjase explains his type of humorous remark and they start to laugh.  Menara tells Meier that he is very funny and she admits that she has very much to learn here.  But, she says that she will do her best.  Semjase tells her that she will instruct her about his manner of expression so that she will understand him.  She will just have to learn to speak his kind of expressions for it is often very unconventional.  She agrees to try.

Menara's race - early Earth ancestors                   61.M9-12

                Meier says that they will surely understand one another and have wonderful fun.  He comments on her pretty black eyes, which complements her dark skin and relates similar traits to a human race from Africa with European influences.  He asks Menara about the mixtures of Negroid and white races on Earth.  She says that her race originated on Earth because her forefathers mingled with earthly inhabitants and generated the tribes of the Huns.  In later epochs of time, they came together with the races from Africa and generated new races.  Some of those races have now connected themselves again to her later forefathers and created their presently existing races.  Their language is called Jenan.

Menara - on Earth for the first time                    61.227-230

                Menara comments on the fact that she has very much to learn in order to understand Meier.  But for now, she wants to leave and perhaps prepare a delight for him.  She says good-bye and Meier expresses a desire to see her again very soon.  Her coming has pleased him very much.  She says that she feels the same way and thanks him.  Then, she walks away into the anti-gravity tube, which carries her gently upwards to her ship.  After a few seconds of silence, Semjase says that he seems to have already closed Menara into his heart and that he acted properly.  But, she pleads with him to not put her in a predicament with so many unusual questions.  She has little knowledge in respect to earthly affairs, which will take some time for her to work herself into them.  Besides this, she is on Earth for the first time and must find her way around here.  Meier is surprised by this and says that if he had known, he would not have asked her about the races here.  Semjase says that she was informed about that and he has not put her in a predicament.

Menara's race - 3,150 years ahead of Earth              62.46-51

                Menara’s race is 3,150 in advance of earthly human evolution.  This means that they are only 350 less than the Plejarens.  When Menara’s people left the Earth, the kept the same position in evolution, just as the Plejarens did.  But, the Plejarens advanced by 350 years while other nations are still in a rapid state of education.  This opportunity was given to them some years later.

      Race & racism (racial prejudice)                      76.1-9
                It has been 3 months since Meier has seen Semjase.  He received a short telepathic greeting from her and two short greetings from Menara as she flew past near him.  But today, she has come in person and is a most welcome sight for him. He tells her that his world has turned topsy-turvy with many unpleasant things happening along with an accident.  It seemed like many things have conspired against them.  But now, he says that she looks like an angel to him.  Her dark beauty shines toward like a splendid rose, whose fragrance lovingly dispels all sorrows.  Menara says that he is very kind.  She thanks him because his words reveal to her that he does not distinguish between different human beings. 

                Menara knows that neither the race nor the color of skin plays a part to him as he treats everyone equally.  But, she is aware of how a great number of people on Earth have racial prejudices and she wanted to explore his thoughts about this.  She expresses great delight to know that he is so accepting.  Meier says that he is glad for her and compliments her on her beauty.  She thanks him and informs him that he will see her more often in the future.  Meier is pleasantly surprised and asks if she would be returning to her home planet soon.  She says that she enjoys it here very much and has undertaken a special task so that she will not be leaving.
