Dickhoff, Robert Ernest
Tibetan Buddhist and author of several books with Buddhist
reflections on UFOs and the hollow earth theory. Dickhoff was
an early champion of the idea that UFOs were hostile, a view
that has gained ascendancy in UFO circles in the 1990s. He believed
them to be winged garudas, a birdlike demon of Buddhist
mythology. His book Agharta (1951) is a romance of subterranean
races. Dickhoff founded the American Buddhist Society
and fellowship in 1947 and headed the small organization for
many years.
