James Gilliland is a multifaceted individual recognized globally as a best-selling author, lecturer, minister, counselor, multiple near-death experiencer, and contactee. He is the founder of the Gilliland Estate, commonly known as the ECETI Ranch (Enlightened Contact with Extraterrestrial Intelligence), located in Trout Lake, Washington, at the base of Mount Adams. Established in 1986, the ECETI Ranch serves as a hub for spiritual awakening, UFO sightings, and alleged contact with extraterrestrial beings, which Gilliland refers to as the "greater family of man." His work centers on facilitating enlightened contact with spiritually and technologically advanced extra- and ultra-terrestrial visitors, a phenomenon known as CE-5 (Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind).
Gilliland’s professional journey is deeply rooted in his personal experiences, including multiple near-death experiences that he claims have shaped his understanding of higher-dimensional realities. He is a facilitator of Eastern disciplines and a visionary dedicated to the awakening and healing of humanity and the Earth. His work at the ECETI Ranch has attracted thousands of visitors, including scientists, physicists, aerospace engineers, and professional photographers, who have witnessed and documented UFO activity, orb phenomena, and other unexplained events. Media outlets such as ABC, Fox News, The History Channel, and Evening Magazine, along with radio programs like Coast to Coast AM with George Noory and Jeff Rense, have covered the ongoing activities at the ranch, highlighting its significance in the UFO and paranormal communities.
As an author, Gilliland has written several books that explore spiritual awakening, extraterrestrial contact, and multidimensional realities. His notable works include Reunion with Source, Becoming Gods, The Ultimate Soul Journey, and Anunnaki Return, Star Nations and the Days to Come. These books aim to educate, awaken, and heal readers by providing insights into higher consciousness and the unfolding of a new era for humanity. His weekly As You Wish Talk Radio program on BBSradio.com draws a global audience interested in truth, consciousness, and extraterrestrial phenomena.
Gilliland’s ECETI Ranch hosts a variety of events, workshops, and retreats focused on self-mastery, energy medicine, and extraterrestrial contact. These include skywatch weekends, personal healing meditations, and ambassador training workshops where participants learn tools for handling new energies, connecting with benevolent beings, and navigating multidimensional realities. The ranch is described as a tranquil space for spiritual exploration and has been a focal point for UFO activity, with a long history of sightings in the area, including references in Native American lore. Visitors can engage in activities like chakra and clearing meditations, YiGong, and the use of essential oils and crystals for healing.
In addition to his role as a spiritual leader, Gilliland is a filmmaker, having directed and contributed to documentaries such as ECETI Ranch: A Documentary (2012), The Uncontrolled Narrative (2018), and Eceti Down Under (2016). These projects provide a candid look at the people and phenomena associated with the ECETI Ranch, offering insights into what Gilliland describes as a rapidly expanding universe. His work emphasizes the potential for humanity to join the rest of the universe in peace, leveraging advanced technologies to end disease, restore the environment, and achieve a utopian future.
Gilliland’s mission is driven by a belief in the transformative power of contact with advanced beings and the dissemination of technologies that could reshape humanity’s future. His ranch, often referred to as a “sanctuary,” has become a global destination for those seeking spiritual growth, extraterrestrial encounters, and a deeper connection to the cosmos.
