 It's absolutely true. Just search "Steven Greer CE5" and you'll see all sorts of crap about it. He even sold his teachings as some sort of video course.  
 Lolll 
 And then you go to the UFO subreddit and there's all these idiots talking about how they were "doing their CE5 meditation" and looked up and saw some ambiguous light moving across the sky. And they act like they've proven that they communicate with UFOs. Meanwhile, it's just the ISS moving across the sky, or some other innocuous object. But they're convinced that they've created a mind connection with the aliens. 🤦‍♂️ 
 😂 idiots 
 It certainly can be frustrating. There's a lot of people who a guided entirely by their desire to believe, and never once employ critical thinking when evaluating some of these claims. But if you stick with it and cut through the weeds, there are definitely some amazing cases that defy conventional explanation. Those 1-5% of cases are what keep me engaged.
