	Out of the Silent Planet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The eldila, who work for Oyarsa as messengers and maintainers of the planet, are meant to be angels.
		Since the eldila, who fill space (or "the heavens," which are depicted as warm and bright due to the Sun) know nothing about what goes on inside those boundaries, Earth is called Thulcandra, "the silent planet." While Earth has fallen into evil, Mars has not.
		All three of these races and the eldila are "unfallen": free of the tendency to evil and sin that plagues humans.

	Space Trilogy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Certain very powerful eldila, the Oyéresu (singular Oyarsa), control the course of nature on each of the planets of the Solar System (note the similarity to the Valar, or the higher angels, in The Silmarillion).
		The eldila are science-fictionalized depictions of angels, immortal and holy, with the Oyéresu perhaps being angels of a higher order (possibly in the traditional Hierarchy of angels).
		The eldila resident on (actually, imprisoned in) Earth are "dark eldila", fallen angels or demons.

	That Hideous Strength - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is set in post-war England in a small university town in which a research agency called N.I.C.E. (National Institute for Coordinated Experiments), led by fallen eldila, attempts to destroy the true nature of mankind.
		Alcasan- "The Head", an executed criminal whose head is recovered by the N.I.C.E. and is supposedly kept alive by intricate machinery.
		The Head becomes a communication mechanism for the "Macrobes" or fallen eldila.

	The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum - Maiar=Eldila?
		There is a remarkable similarity between the characteristics of C.S. Lewis's "eldila" and Tolkien's Maiar.
		The eldila exist on a different plane or level of existence than humans do, are at home in space and almost invisible for humans.
		The eldila (sorry about the spelling) are not "gods", and neither are the Oyarsas of each planet.

	Sample text for Library of Congress control number 96010403
		He had met the creatures called eldila, and specially that great eldil who is the ruler of Mars or, in their speech, the Oyarsa of Malacandra.
		We had eldila of our own, he said, Tellurian eldils, but they were of a different kind and mostly hostile to man. That, in fact, was why our world was cut off from communication with the other planets.
		If all this were true, then, of course, we should welcome the fact that eldila of a better kind had at last broken the frontier (it is, they say, at the Moon's orbit) and were beginning to visit us.

	CBU - Honors Journal - Out of the Silent Planet: A Journey to the Medieval Past - Randy Hude
		In fact, as he learns about the hnau of Malacandra and the eldila of the Heavens, he comes back to medieval cosmology: the Heavens, all that is beyond the Moon, are ordered and permanent (The Discarded Image 3-5).
		For instance, the eldila are reminiscent of an old belief "that the air is inhabited by a great many beings, some good and some bad, who will live there till the world ends" (Discarded Image 2).
		Beasts must be ruled by hnau and hnau by eldila and eldila by Maledil.

	Into the Wardrobe :: View topic - Perelandra Chap. 1
		The eldila, angelic beings without any material bodies to be seen by humans.
		C.S. Lewis was so into the supernatural nature of the eldila that he includes a footnote about their appearance.
		- the sense of the eldila being the frame of reference and the whole of Earth seeming 'slanted' in their presence is repeated in THS when the eldila visit Ransom in his upper room at St Anne's.

		His quest for fluidity between dissonant harmonic structures is incessant: He seeks not so much resolve but a kind of transparency that allows for steadfastness as well as disappearance.
		Battaglia's compositions -- best evidenced here by "Etude," "Eldila," "Vision," and "Hymn" -- look deeply inside not only musical constructs for answers, but also into spiritual ones (the Sufi poet Rûmî seems to be a deep influence on Battaglia's writing).
		The title track extrapolates from Monk's "Blue Monk" and "Hackensack" to achieve a kind of weightlessness of architecture and scale: The swing is in the bass line in the middle register, while the tune's fire spirals out of control on a series of arpeggio developments in B major.

		Beasts must be ruled by hnau and hnau by eldila and eldila by Maleldil.
		They are like one trying to lift himself by his own hair - or one trying to see over a whole country when he is level with it - like a female trying to beget young on herself.
		Without the Eldila, from which we are to learn God's praises, we don't even speak the language of the rst of the solar system.

		The horrible day turned out to be a warm, fuzzy and stress-release one when I met Su, Eldila, Noy, Zack and Elsa at town.

		The space-ports at the three great cities, were, of course, occupied or blockaded by the Tellurian fleets; and Doane was obliged to make his bases of operations the lonely craters that once had been pirate strongholds.
		We had eldila of our own, he said, Tellurian eldils, but they were of a different kind and mostly hostile to Man.
		I did not doubt the existence of the things he had met in Mars—the Pfifltriggi, the Hrossa, and the Sorns—nor of these interplanetary eldila.

		And the nice addition of Malacandra telling Ransom that the Maleldil (meaning "Friend of the Eldila" or angels, God the Father) has "taken strange councils" and dared terrible things, and how these are things that the out-of-the-loop Oyarsas "desire to look into".
		OTOH, Perelandra is much longer, and once you get past the lush descriptive work, it can't get more obvious as a rerun of Eden and the Fall of Man on another world.
		Even people who would never be able to connect eldila with angels know of Adam and Eve.

		At the moment I read this, I could not fathom exactly how it happened, but, for reasons not yet known to me, I knew that Dr. Ransom had been summoned back to Mars, assumably escorted by the eldila, as he called them.
		His desire to save his own planet made him feel hopeless now, for Malacandra held the answers he needed in freeing Earth from destruction.
		“Why didn’t the eldila take me straight to where the knau are?” Ransom wondered.

		I have been a life-long C.S. Lewis fan, and first tackled this book when I was probably about 12, returning to it often throughout the years (I am now 32).
		One of my favorite passages concerns the descent of the Eldila (especially Jupiter) into St. Anne's, although I thoroughly enjoyed the work as a whole.
		It can be a bit slow-going in parts, and definitely is "British" in numerous of its references, but all in all it's a great end to the series and a very instructive and entertaining story.

		These eldila are not in one place ("here") as we would call it.
		Now, I'm drifting, but the angels, eldila or maia, the spirits, are actually everywhere at the same time, or at least crusing through Deep Space to keep pace with the planets.
		These eldila also have the power to directly manipulate the brain and display themselves in different forms.

		And you could see in his face that he was a man used up to the last drop, if you know what I mean--that he'd fall to pieces the moment the powers let him go" (361).
		Several times in the trilogy the eldila, ministering angels, are associated with pillars of light (Planet 79; Perelandra 18; Strength 321), and here Merlin is seen as the candlewick for their flame.
		Jane's last sight of Merlin suggests that he has learned to become the medium, the bridge by which higher powers are able to accomplish their ends on earth.

		While approaching Ransom's cottage, Lewis is besieged by doubts and fears which cause him to think he is going insane.
		The bent eldila (fallen angels) of our world do not want Lewis to reach the cottage and Ransom.
		They have gotten wind of what's happening, and wish to inhibit the process in any way possible.

		The materials below are from Perelandra, written in 1944.
		Other than omitting some irrelevant (for our purposes) interspersed phrasing and sentences, I have changed one word: Lewis' "eldila" (an extraterrestrial angelic being, which might be good or bad) for "extraterrestrial." I leave in the part about the "angels" and spirits, as it applies to the matter-at-hand of current UFOlogical ideas, and crossing the line.
		I will also leave out the name of the character to be visited by the storyteller, and you can for "X" substitute the name of your favorite contactee/abductee or crossed-the-line UFOlogist.
