Anomalija - No 25

Magazine Overview

This issue of "Аномалия" (Anomaly), identified as issue number 3-94(25) and dated 07-09.94, is a scientific-informational bulletin from ITAR-TASS and the Association "Ecology of the Unknown." The cover boldly proclaims "Аномалия" with the subtitle "ЭКОЛОГИЯ НЕПОЗНАННОГО" (Ecology of the Unknown), featuring a striking image of an old stone tower amidst trees. The issue promises a deep dive into psychotronics, global experiments, and various unexplained phenomena.

Psychotronics: Truth and Myths

The magazine dedicates a significant portion to the topic of psychotronics, beginning with an article titled "The Information Field of the Earth. Results of Global Experiments." This piece, authored by V.P. Kaznacheev and A.V. Trofimov, highlights research conducted by scientists in Novosibirsk. It addresses the controversial "psychotronic" developments attributed to them, aiming to inform readers about the actual scientific research being undertaken. The article references two key works: "Scientific Results of Global Experiments on the Study of the Earth's Information Field. Report" (1993) and "Scientific Results of Global Experiments on the Study of the Earth's Information Field. Institute of General Pathology and Human Ecology SB RAMS. Preprint" (1994).

The authors discuss the vast amount of data supporting the transmission of mental images over distances, which is often dismissed by classical science due to a lack of explanation. They propose that the current scientific paradigm is inadequate and requires a fundamental re-evaluation of how we understand observation and the analysis of psychophysical phenomena. The possibility that consciousness can not only receive but also transmit information to its surroundings is explored, suggesting that phenomena like extrasensory perception might be weak ecological connections reflecting human intellect as a cosmoplanetary phenomenon.

The article reviews global literature on remote perception and the possibility of obtaining information from distant geographical points without traditional technical means. It cites experiments by H. Puthoff and R. Targ (1977) on describing remote targets, the use of polyphonic imagery, and studies by E. Targ, R. Targ, and O. Lichtarge (1985) confirming these findings. Further research by B. Dunne and J. Bisaha (1979) is mentioned, noting a tendency for clearer perception of "aesthetic" aspects compared to "analytical" details, and the possibility of precognitive perception.

Studies by M. Ullman, S. Krippner, A. Vanghan (1973), C. Honorton (1977), and W. Brand (1978) are referenced for their work on emotional stimulation and personal interest in tasks. Mathematical analysis has shown that information about remote targets is not received randomly, according to C. Scott (1972), R. Morris (1977), G. Solfviv, E. Kolly, and D. Burdick (1978).

The article also touches upon methodologies for independent expert evaluation of results to rule out sensory "hints" (D. Marks, R. Kammann, 1980), and methods using binary descriptors and signal-to-noise ratio analysis. The work of R. Jahn (1981) and R. Jahn, B. Dunne (1987) is noted for their use of subjective descriptions and recognition of заданных (given) and subsequently ranked elements of information.

Further theoretical attempts to explain these phenomena are mentioned, including hypotheses about wave-like properties of psychological coding based on neuroholographic and quantum-mechanical mechanisms (B. Westlake, W. Barret, K. Prybramm, 1975), suggesting simultaneous recognition and instantaneous activation of past experience. V.P. Zlokazov, V.N. Pushkin, and E.D. Shevchin (1978) proposed a theory of unified physical properties for wave (field) structures of living and non-living objects and their perception, hypothesizing remote interaction of forms and biophysical structures of mental images. The possibility of dendritic structures in the cerebral cortex perceiving free spatial movement of such images is discussed, potentially generating "psycho-soliton" wave packets with high stability and long-range propagation.

The concept of "psycho-soliton" radiation is linked to remote extrasensory correction of human organism functions, citing studies by E. Levitt (1991), J. Holmes (1991), G. Stricker (1990), J. Paul (1989), M. Weitzenhoffer (1990), and M. West (1990). B.I. Iskakov's neutrino-photon hypothesis suggests that wave packets, as they propagate, become diffuse and generate weak pre- and post-signals, allowing for reception of signals from distant events ahead of time.

A.F. Okhatrin (1988) and V.P. Frolov (1988) propose leptonic gas and resonantly excited lepton states as the basis for bioenergetics and information transfer in "long-distance communication." V.V. Nalimov (1984) views continuous intuitive human thinking as part of the planet's information field (D. Bohm, 1977). I.P. Shmelev (1980) develops the hypothesis of a holographic information field, describing the world as a global dynamic duplex sphere. N.A. Kozyrev's theory that time carries information about events, which can be transmitted to other systems, is presented as key to understanding extrasensory perception (telepathy).

The article highlights the growing attention to conditions affecting the effectiveness of extrasensory perception, referencing experiments on target reproduction and light flash registration via EEG. A correlation between extrasensory perception experience and geomagnetic field (GMF) activity is noted, with optimal experience occurring during periods of low GMF activity (W. Braud, S. Dennis, 1989).

Global experiments under the program "New Cosmogony" are discussed, including two major experiments: "Polar Circle" in December 1991, involving image transmission from Dikson and reception across the CIS, and "Banner of Peace" in June 1993, with image transmission from Novosibirsk and Dikson, and reception in Europe, Asia, and America. The goal of these experiments was to study the planetary information field of Earth and its role in remote, image-based communication between people across different regions.

Tasks and Methods of Research

The research outlined in the article has three main tasks: 1) Assessing conditions for stable reception of remote-image communications between people, considering cosmic situations and prenatal development. 2) Studying regional peculiarities of remote-image communication between people. 3) Investigating the role of telecommunication means and simulated multidimensional space in forming Earth's information field.

The methodology involved synchronous assessment of remote-image communications, using a free-choice image selection with a free-form response method (J. Rhine, 1970, modified by A.V. Trofimov, 1990). To determine the influence of cosmic factors, a method of predicting and evaluating functional dependence on the helio-geophysical environment during the prenatal period was used, based on 70 years of data and a computer program developed by O.P. Saranchin and co-authors (1991).

For transmitting image information, an original hypogeomagnetic installation was employed to weaken the Earth's magnetic field by approximately 600 times. This, along with technologies for unlocking human psychophysical reserves in a hypogeomagnetic environment (V.P. Kaznacheev, A.V. Trofimov, N.K. Ignatiev, 1992), and the use of metallic mirrors based on N.A. Kozyrev's ideas, were utilized. The experiment "Polar Circle" used a laser installation (LGN-111) with a beam directed at a specific polar sky object (A.V. Trofimov, 1991), employing a "darkened" laser beam principle (V.P. Kaznacheev, 1991) with mineral filters.

Astrophysical and geophysical experiments were conducted using magnetospheric and ionospheric stations, as well as astronomical observatories in Novosibirsk, Dikson, Troitsk, and St. Petersburg.

Participants and Additional Conditions

Over 4,500 participants from 12 countries were involved in the two global experiments. Participants were asked to record any "inner vision" imagery they received without special meditation techniques. In the 1993 experiment, some participants were located in areas of high cultural, historical, or spiritual significance, or in geophysically anomalous zones.

Participants transmitting image information had undergone special preparatory courses. They were instructed to use a "graphic alphabet" of 77 elements to encode received images. The protocols included descriptions of images and drawings. Operators transmitting information would randomly select 3-5 elements from the alphabet for the transmission.

Limitations and Assumptions

The article outlines several limitations and assumptions in the research. The availability of the "alphabet" to participants could lead to guessing element numbers, creating "noise" that could be described by a random distribution function. Variations in the timing of receiving participant protocols and data processing could lead to random formation of experimental data tables. If fewer than 30 participants were involved in a session, the results were not considered statistically significant.

After initial processing, a database was created. For each session, an array of element numbers used in image formation was generated. The received elements for each participant were then compared to the transmitted elements to determine the number of correctly received elements. These results were summed, normalized, and compared to a theoretical (expected) function. The experiment simulated a random selection of numbers from 1 to 77 without replacement, following a hypergeometric distribution. The number of correctly guessed elements and critical values for significance levels (50%, 90%, 95%, 99%) were considered.

To identify elements that were better received, polygons of relative frequencies were constructed and visualized on a computer display, alongside theoretical frequency polygons from Monte Carlo simulations. If the relative frequency of receiving an element exceeded the sum of mathematical expectation and double the standard deviation, it was considered a signal.

This analysis indicated that even in seemingly unsuccessful sessions, some elements might be received successfully. Participants who consistently received image information correctly (1-5 elements per session) could be identified by their personal numbers.

To determine the influence of various factors (environmental conditions, operator state, demographic parameters) on reception effectiveness, data was filtered. Statistically significant sessions were subjected to one-factor analysis of variance to assess the impact of specific factors. An algorithm developed by A.P. Piskayskin and co-authors, implemented in a Clipper 5.0 program for PC/AT computers, was used for data processing.

The article notes that the traditional mathematical apparatus used for data processing was initially intended for describing simple inanimate systems and proved inadequate for modeling complex human systems with polymorphic structures. Given that the operational units of human thought are not discrete mathematical objects but elements of fuzzy sets, a corresponding mathematical apparatus was deemed necessary for further processing. A significant challenge remains the quantitative determination of the degree of similarity between transmitted and received images.

The article is signed by V. Kaznacheev (academician, president of MIKA), and A.V. Trofimov (candidate of medical sciences, director of MIKA), specially for "Аномалия."

Scientist's Notes: The Connection Between Biofield and Other Physical Fields

"Аномалия" has previously published materials by Nikolai Sochevanov, a prominent figure in Russian biolocation and a candidate of geological-mineralogical sciences. This section begins the publication of his summary notes, focusing on the connection between the biofield and other physical fields. The article notes Sochevanov's interesting findings regarding the collision of Comet Shoemaker-Levy with Jupiter, which will be featured in this issue.

Two main viewpoints on the nature of living organisms' energy fields are presented:

1. The biofield is a combination of known physical fields (thermal, electromagnetic, magnetic, etc.). Academician Yu.V. Gulyaev is quoted as saying, "Let's agree from the start: do not use the term biofield. There are no mystical biofields, only real physical fields of biological objects."
2. The biofield is a unique, special field. Academician Yu.B. Kobzarev suggests that "the physical reality of the existence of biofields is confirmed by a number of indirect physical experiments, as well as subjective sensations of experimenters." Academician V.A. Trapeznikov states regarding parapsychology, "The nature of these phenomena is currently unknown, but we cannot dismiss them without risking the ruin of science" (Izvestia, 12.09.87).

The genesis of the biofield has been studied in relation to telepathy, with contributions from Dr. of Technical Sciences I.M. Kogan and other scientists. Notable Soviet scientists who studied the biofield in the 1920s-1950s include V.M. Bekhterev, P.P. Lazarev, G.M. Frank, B.B. Kazhinsky, A.V. Leontovich, V.L. Durov, L.L. Vasiliev, S.Ya. Turligin, and A.G. Gurvich.

Influence of Biofield on Various Objects

1. Uri Geller: The article mentions Uri Geller's abilities, such as bending spoons and, according to some publications, stopping clocks from a distance. This is presented as an example of biofield influence.
2. A.V. Ignatenko: It is reported that in 1981, in Lithuania, during academic rowing competitions, Ignatenko maintained sunny weather for 15 days within a 5-6 km radius by dispersing clouds with his biofield.
3. Pyrogenia (Spontaneous Combustion): The article cites reports from the "Michigan Medical News" /5/ about phenomena of pyrogenia. Dr. L. Woodman describes a case where A. Underwood's handkerchief spontaneously ignited after he breathed on it. Despite extensive examination, doctors could not explain the phenomenon.
The hypothesis is proposed that this could be due to the formation of an ultra-high concentration of biofield in a localized area, leading to temperatures of 310 degrees Celsius or more.
4. Heat Generation: Sessions conducted by hereditary healer Natalia Veniaminovna Ushakova are described as illustrating the conversion of biofield energy into heat. During a session in Moscow, Ushakova activated water, creams, and oils. The author measured the biolocational effect (BLE) using a frame, noting a decrease in Ushakova's own field while the BLE of water increased significantly and that of sunflower oil even more so. Water brought by attendees also became noticeably warmer, with some bottles in the same row being warmer than others.
5. Spontaneous Combustion in Enakievo, Ukraine: A case is presented where a miner's son's biofield caused electrical light bulbs to explode throughout the apartment. This led to fires, including the ignition of upholstery, oilcloth, chairs, and carpets. The father reported around 100 cases of spontaneous combustion attributed to the son. Similar phenomena were observed at school and after the family moved.
6. Weight Change of Objects: The article discusses several examples of objects changing weight under biofield influence. This is presented as distinct from changes in Earth's gravitational field. The phenomenon of telekinesis (objects moving without physical contact) is mentioned as being rare.
7. Levitation: The phenomenon of levitation (a person hovering slightly above the ground) is described as even rarer and not universally recognized by specialists.
8. VII All-Union Seminar on Biolocation: An experiment led by V.E. Lebedeva is described, where four experimenters were able to lift a person sitting on a chair by placing their hands under it. This feat, which would be impossible under normal circumstances, was performed by women lifting men weighing 90-110 kg. The lift lasted only a few seconds.
9. Weight Change Experiments: More striking experiments involving weight changes were conducted in the USA and other countries.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue revolve around the exploration of the unknown, particularly in the realms of psychotronics, UFOs, and anomalous phenomena. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry, presenting research and anecdotal evidence from various sources, including scientific studies and personal accounts. There is a clear interest in bridging the gap between conventional science and unconventional phenomena, suggesting that current scientific paradigms may be insufficient to explain all observed realities. The magazine aims to inform readers about ongoing research and investigations into these complex subjects, encouraging critical thinking and further exploration.

This issue of "Аномалия" (Anomalies) magazine, dated 07-09.94, focuses on the complex and often controversial topic of psychotronics, exploring its relationship with perceived truths and fictional elements. The issue delves into various anomalous phenomena, reader submissions, and theoretical discussions.

Psychotronics: Truth and Fiction

The lead article, "Психотроника: правда и вымыслы" (Psychotronics: truth and fiction), examines the effects of biopoles. It describes experiments where a strong biopole influence (10-15 minutes) temporarily demagnetized a compass needle. The article also highlights the abilities of psychic F.D.Konukhova from Belarus, who could describe the condition of a patient in Novosibirsk while in Moscow. Professor F.N.Romashov is quoted noting the unique energies of Konukhova's hands, which could penetrate materials and activate donor blood cells, keeping them alive for eight days.

Further experiments detailed include the effect of biopoles on a man's beret, increasing its internal biopole energy significantly. A pillow was also subjected to biopole influence, showing changes in its electromagnetic field. The article also discusses experiments with a spring from an expander and a massager, measuring their biopole energy and wavelength before and after activation.

"Black Marks" and UFOs

Another significant section, "ЧЕРНЫЕ МЕТКИ" (Black Marks), investigates anomalous photographic phenomena often associated with UFOs. These "black marks" are described as dark spots of various shapes appearing on film but not visible to the naked eye, often lacking shadows. The article suggests they might be energy structures rather than physical objects. It notes that close proximity to these marks can cause camera equipment to malfunction. The section also touches upon the concept of UFOs as vehicles for intelligent beings and discusses how witnesses inside UFOs might perceive a vastly increased interior volume due to a transformation of their physical state.

Geo-Active Zones Contest

The magazine announces a contest for works on geo-active zones, organized by the "Solaris" Scientific and Health Center, an association of "Ecology of the Unknown." The contest, running through 1995, invites submissions on theoretical models, research reports, historical studies, and the interaction between geo-active zones and humans. Prizes are offered for the top entries.

"Uninvited Guests" and the Nature of Reality

The "Uninvited Guests" section presents a philosophical perspective on human perception and reality. It questions religious and mystical interpretations of the universe, suggesting a need for a reassessment of our beliefs. The article posits that the universe may not belong to a single deity and that the concept of multiple deities is contradictory. It explores the vastness of time and space, implying the existence of diverse forms of intelligent life. The text touches upon a metaphorical "war in the world" involving higher beings and suggests that humanity is influenced by these forces, with some entities aiding progress and others abducting humans for experiments.

The Universe and Singularity

An article titled "Я СОЗДАЛ ВСЕЛЕННУЮ“ (I Created the Universe) discusses cosmological theories, including Friedmann's view on the expanding universe and Hubble's observations of galactic redshift. It proposes that the universe originated from a singularity, a point of immense density, and that we are still utilizing the energy from this primordial explosion. The article also presents an alternative hypothesis: that our world emerged in the space of the universe as a successor to a previous world that reached its peak entropy. This process involved the transformation of matter into neutrinos and antineutrinos, filling the universe with uniformity. The concept of intelligent life influencing the birth and structure of subsequent worlds is explored, suggesting that the "laws" of the universe are designed to prevent its violation.

The Role of Religion and Anomalies

The section "ЦЕРКОВЬ И АНОМАЛЬНЫЕ ЯВЛЕНИЯ" (Church and Anomalous Phenomena) explores the often-overlooked connections between religious knowledge and anomalous phenomena. It argues that religious texts contain descriptions of events and phenomena studied by anomalistics, and that religion offers insights into the human soul and its potential. The article notes that UFO phenomena have historically influenced human consciousness and beliefs, leading to ideas about parallel worlds. It acknowledges that many religious figures deny any connection between anomalies and religion, but the magazine aims to provide a platform for diverse ideas.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue consistently explores the boundaries between the known and the unknown, scientific inquiry and speculative theory. The magazine showcases reader contributions, scientific investigations, and theoretical discussions on topics ranging from psychotronics and UFOs to cosmology and the nature of consciousness. The editorial stance appears to be open to exploring unconventional ideas and providing a platform for researchers and enthusiasts in the field of anomalous phenomena, while also encouraging critical thinking and self-reflection.

This issue of "Issledovaniya nashikh kolleg" (Research of Our Colleagues), published by "Anomaliya" in September 1994, delves into a variety of topics, including spirituality, religion, anomalous phenomena, cosmology, and the scientific study of the unknown. The magazine features articles by researchers and thinkers exploring philosophical, spiritual, and scientific perspectives.

Articles and Content

Tolerance and Spirituality in Modern Society

The issue opens with a discussion on the importance of tolerance, citing an excerpt from Metropolitan Anthony of Surozh's book "Demons in Faith and the Church." He emphasizes that tolerance is an essential characteristic of believers and that intolerance often stems from insecurity. The article critiques the totalitarian nature of both states and churches that claim to possess absolute truth. It argues that a lack of mutual understanding and open cooperation, replaced by egocentrism and fanaticism, hinders societal progress. The piece also touches upon the perceived decline of spirituality in contemporary society, suggesting that people are increasingly focused on external forms and rituals rather than the inner essence of faith. The author, a practicing healer, advocates for a synthesis of all religions and spiritual paths, believing that a unified concept of knowledge is needed to guide humanity.

The Philosophical Nature of Space and Dimensions

An article titled "Theosophy of the Dimensionality of the Universe's Space" explores the esoteric understanding of space as an eternal, ever-present Cause of everything. It posits that space is not empty but a unified global energy, the "Subsyratum" or immutable cause of all manifestations. The concept of "mernost" (dimensionality) is introduced, suggesting that the universe is multidimensional and that matter possesses various qualities, including extension and permeability. The article references information received from advanced extraterrestrial civilizations, which posits that the universe is chaotic and that dimensionality is not fixed but fluctuates. It also mentions the idea that the optimal condition for organic life is a specific dimensionality, and that deviations can be detrimental.

The Anomalous Rotation of Venus

Another significant piece examines the anomaly of Venus's axial rotation, which is retrograde compared to its orbital direction. The author, Pavel Chernosvitov, proposes a scientific explanation based on the principles of mechanics and the concept of elastic deformations in planetary bodies. He suggests that changes in Venus's moment of inertia, possibly due to internal heating and phase transitions in its early history, could have led to a counter-phase change in its axial rotation speed. This, in turn, could have caused a growth in its equatorial bulge and a transfer of angular momentum from axial rotation to precession, potentially resulting in its current retrograde rotation and a new axis of rotation perpendicular to the ecliptic.

The Impact of Comet Shoemaker-Levy on Jupiter's Informational Field

The issue also reports on research conducted by Nikolaiochevanov and his colleagues concerning the impact of Comet Shoemaker-Levy fragments on Jupiter. Using biolocation methods, they measured anomalies in Earth's informational field during the period of the comet's impact. The results indicated significant deviations, particularly on July 17th, suggesting a connection between the cosmic event and measurable changes in the informational field. The article highlights the potential for advanced civilizations to transmit information across vast distances and references research on the "paradoxical" temporal effects observed in distant information transmission.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue of "Issledovaniya nashikh kolleg" consistently explores the intersection of science, spirituality, and the unexplained. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry, encouraging readers to consider unconventional ideas and scientific research into phenomena that lie beyond mainstream understanding. There is a recurring theme of seeking a deeper, more holistic understanding of the universe and humanity's place within it, often drawing upon both scientific and esoteric perspectives. The magazine promotes critical thinking and the synthesis of knowledge from various disciplines to unravel the mysteries of existence.

This issue of "Комета - Юпитер - Земля - Человек" (Comet - Jupiter - Earth - Human), dated 07-09.94 and identified as issue 29, focuses on the encounter between Comet Shoemaker-Levy-9 and Jupiter, exploring both scientific and anomalous aspects.

Encounter of Shoemaker-Levi-9 with Jupiter

The lead article details research conducted by specialists from Troitsk, led by Vladislav Lugovenko, head of the department of the constant magnetic field at the Institute of Earth Magnetism, Ionosphere, and Radio Wave Propagation of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The study aimed to measure Jupiter's bioenergetic field during the bombardment by fragments of Comet Shoemaker-Levy-9 from July 16-22, 1994. The researchers used two methods: biolocational frames to measure seven aura boundaries of Jupiter and a pendulum to assess the field's flow towards Jupiter's north pole. Measurements began on July 2nd, with noticeable deviations in parameters L and D observed approximately 5 hours before the first fragment's impact on July 16th. These deviations peaked simultaneously for all fragments, suggesting significant measurement accuracy. Fragments A, B, and E showed relatively small deviations, while fragments Q and W caused more substantial anomalies, requiring multiple adjustments of the Jupiter phantom during measurements. Fragment W was identified as the most powerful, and fragment B as the weakest.

The article presents a table detailing the time of physical impact (T1), time of maximum D parameter (T2), time of maximum L parameter (T2), and the time difference (R = T2 - T1) for each fragment (A, B, E, Q, W). The data indicates that the "premonition" of the impact, measured as the time difference between the physical impact and the peak anomaly, varied. The researchers suggest that the bioenergetic field of Jupiter reacted to the impending impact, intensifying before the event and then returning to normal.

Hypothesis on Planetary Synthesizer Launch

Another significant article, "Hypothesis on the Planetary Launch of a Topological Code Synthesizer within a Geometric Volume," by Yuri Bogdanov and colleagues from the "Ecology of the Unknown" association, proposes a cosmological sensation. They suggest that the collision of Comet Shoemaker-Levy-9 fragments with Jupiter triggered a synthesizer of electromagnetic fields on Earth, leading to outbreaks of gastrointestinal epidemics.

The authors describe how the impact of comet fragments initiated a "topological synthesizer of amplitude distributions of emission intensity of electromagnetic oscillations" within geometric volumes possessing local defects. These volumes, often mountainous regions, act as synthesizers of these field patterns. The impact is theorized to have caused a sharp increase in characteristic indicators, a phenomenon termed "launching" the synthesizer. This process is linked to bifurcation theory, describing system reorganizations when parameters change. The article posits that these synthesized topological codes, or "form codes," can influence physical and biological systems, including microorganisms responsible for diseases like cholera and dysentery.

The research involved analyzing data from the DEMON device, which registered deviations in the Earth's natural electromagnetic field (EИЭМПЗ) during the comet's impact period. These deviations, described as "beating waves," were observed synchronously in Simferopol, Kharkov, and Moscow. The authors suggest that these low-frequency gravitational waves from Jupiter's bombardment, rather than high-frequency light flashes, caused the observed anomalies. They correlate the timing of these events with the development of epidemics in regions like Dagestan and Rwanda, noting that the cholera vibrio's development period aligns with the observed signal fluctuations.

The article further explores the concept of "imprinting" the TF-signal onto material bodies, leading to "deformation" of space and subsequent vibrational responses. This imprinting is suggested to alter the structure and "consciousness" of chemical substances, viruses, and microorganisms. The authors propose that the "code of form" of these TF-signals is analogous to the code of registered emissions, leading to a "topological resonance" that stimulates the development of cholera vibrios and potentially alters human biological rhythms.

Geological Aspects of "Prozrenie" (Insight)

Juriy Kleuzov, author of a brief article titled "How the Earth Was Born," presents a new cosmogonic and geodynamic hypothesis about Earth's shell formation. His "insight" suggests that Earth was initially a moon-like celestial body with one side illuminated and the other in darkness. He connects the fragmentation of the supercontinent Pangaea into Gondwana and Laurasia, and the formation of the Tethys Sea, to a "geodynamic explosion" around the Triassic-Jurassic boundary, approximately 150 million years ago. Kleuzov hypothesizes that this event was caused by the impact of a "comet" near the Bermuda region, creating a massive vortex and initiating continental drift. He further suggests that the comet's body passed through Earth, exiting near Tibet, and that its tail covered Earth with "placer deposits of gold and diamonds," correlating with known gold and diamond deposits in Siberia and North America.

This hypothesis is discussed by Dmitry Lopatin, a candidate of geographical sciences, who notes that Kleuzov's idea aligns with the concept of an anomalous noosphere and suggests that Earth might retaliate against environmental abuse with cataclysms. Lopatin also touches upon the idea of a comet's tail imprinting a code onto Earth, influencing geological processes and mineral formation.

"Kassiopeya" Association Study

Data from the "International Association "Kassiopeya"" is presented, detailing a study of 105 individuals (45 men, 58 women, 2 children) examined between July 14-25, 1994. The study recorded 150 complaints related to health and psychophysiological states. The most frequent complaints included loss of work capacity (30.0%), depression (18.7%), increased irritability and aggression (11.3%), and lowered blood pressure (8.7%). The researchers observed a significant increase in these complaints during the period of the comet's impact with Jupiter, noting that the effects were not immediate but appeared on the following days. They divided the observation period into five unequal intervals, highlighting the "premonition" period (2 days before impact), the impact period (3 days), and relaxation periods. The study suggests that the human organism and psyche were not indifferent to the cosmic event and that bioenergetic interventions could potentially compensate for the disturbances.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The issue consistently explores the intersection of cosmic events with terrestrial phenomena, including bioenergetics, geophysics, and human health. There's a strong emphasis on anomalous phenomena and alternative scientific hypotheses, often presented as "insights" or "prozrenie." The magazine seems to promote a holistic view of the universe, where celestial events have direct and measurable impacts on Earth and its inhabitants. The editorial stance appears to be open to unconventional theories, encouraging readers to consider the interconnectedness of cosmic and terrestrial systems and the potential for subtle, yet significant, influences from space.

This issue of "Anomaliya" magazine, dated 07-09.94, with issue number 2.94, focuses on "Roads of Discovery on the Airwaves of Radio Russia." The magazine is published by the Association "Ecology of the Unexplained" and is in Russian.

Radio Russia Program "Roads of Discovery"

The magazine highlights the monthly radio program "Roads of Discovery," which has been airing on Radio Russia since early 1994. This program aims to provide a balanced coverage of complex and relevant issues in domestic natural science. Guests on the program have included various scientists and researchers discussing topics such as quantum mechanics, biophysics, ball lightning, Russian cosmism, the impact of comets (Shumeyker-Levy on Jupiter), biological location, and the dialectics of nature. Notable guests mentioned include academician R. Avramenko, Professor S. Shnol, engineer B. Ignatov, academician V. Kaznacheev, Candidate of Physical and Mathematical Sciences V. Esipov, researcher Yu. Kleuzov, E. Meilitsev, Doctor of Technical Sciences R. Lazdin, Candidate of Medical Sciences E. Egorova, and specialists in "cold fusion" such as Yu. Bazhutov, A. Takahachi, H. Fox, M. MacCubrey, and M. Miles. The program is sponsored by the Association "Ecology of the Unexplained."

Reader Mail

A letter from Grzegorz Wasiłuk from Poland expresses appreciation for the "Roads of Discovery" program and the growing field of ufology in Russia. He mentions his interest in UFOs and the publication of books on anomalous phenomena. He specifically references books by Felix Siegel and Yuri Fomin and hopes for a channel to receive Russian publications on anomalous topics to facilitate potential Polish translations.

Clarifications and Corrections

An article clarifies that the author of the material on "field memory" photographs presented at the Eighth Zigel Readings was not the author of the clarification, Olga Tkachenko, but rather Gennady Mikhailovich Silanov, head of the Voronezh Committee for Anomalous Phenomena. Tkachenko also announces that her analysis of anomalous phenomena photographs, conducted with G.I. Lifentsev, will be published in future issues of "Anomaliya."

"Search for a God Substitute" by Maya Bykova

This article critically examines a piece titled "Contacts and Poetry" from a previous issue. The author, Maya Bykova, a member of the Association "Ecology of the Unexplained," questions the authenticity and poetic merit of texts claimed to be dictated by external entities. She argues that such attempts to find a "God substitute" through simplistic observations, like a light bulb turning on, are misguided and lack genuine understanding. Bykova emphasizes the importance of critical thinking and avoiding superficial interpretations, especially when dealing with profound questions about existence.

Felix Siegel's "UFO Phenomenon: Observations and Research"

This section announces the availability of Felix Siegel's book, "UFO Phenomenon: Observations and Research," described as a classic of world ufology. Information is provided on how to order the book via mail, including addresses for the Association "Ecology of the Unexplained," the president of AEN, and the book's compiler, T.F. Konstantinova. Pricing for Russia, CIS countries, and other countries is listed, along with discounts for bulk orders.

"Sacred Places from the Perspective of a Dowsing Practitioner" by an unnamed author

This article explores the concept of "sacred places" as part of a global system of geo-anomalous zones. The author proposes that these places are interconnected with Earth's energy-information exchange with the cosmos and are characterized by underground water flows. The article discusses the use of the biolocation method (dowsing) to study these sites and notes similarities with findings from abroad. It hypothesizes that ancient builders may have intentionally utilized the properties of water to create complex underground hydro-networks and that the form of cult structures might influence these water flows. The author also presents four hypotheses for explaining the observed phenomena, including the possibility of illusory "pseudo-veins" created by the energetic environment.

Energetic Structure of Sacred Places

The article delves into the energetic structure of sacred places, noting similarities with ancient geomantic systems like Feng Shui, which emphasize the balance of Yin and Yang energies. It describes how dowsing reveals concentric rings of energy around these sites and how these patterns are found in other megalithic structures. The author discusses the concept of "energy lines" or "lines of force" (ley lines) and suggests that sacred places are connected by complex "tunnel-like" structures. The research indicates that these structures can have a physical effect on the biosphere and human consciousness, potentially inducing altered states.

"Destruction of Physical Reality. What's Next?" by K.N. Mkhitaryan

This article, authored by a graduate of Moscow State University's Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics and a former participant in laser system development, discusses the shift in scientific paradigms. The author contrasts the ancient understanding of the world with the modern scientific approach, particularly the emphasis on experimental physics championed by figures like Galileo and Newton. The article argues that this modern paradigm, while yielding significant advancements, has also led to the marginalization of disciplines such as astrology, divination, and alchemy. Mkhitaryan critiques the reliance on empirical evidence and the exclusion of phenomena that do not fit within the established framework, suggesting that this approach may have overlooked fundamental aspects of reality.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently explores anomalous phenomena, UFOs, and alternative scientific perspectives. There is a strong emphasis on research conducted within Russia and by Russian scientists, often in collaboration with international researchers. The publication actively promotes the Association "Ecology of the Unexplained" and its activities, including radio programs and scientific readings. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into unexplained phenomena, while also maintaining a critical perspective on unsubstantiated claims, as seen in the critique of "Contacts and Poetry." The magazine also highlights the historical and cultural aspects of these phenomena, connecting them to ancient traditions and beliefs.

This issue of НЛОЦ «Солярис» представляет (NLO Center 'Solaris' Presents), dated 07-09.94, spans pages 50-58 and is primarily in Russian. The magazine focuses on anomalous phenomena, ufology, and esoteric subjects, with a strong emphasis on symbolism and the interconnectedness of various systems.

Key Articles and Themes

The Russian Alphabet and the Universal System of Knowledge: The Time of Synthesizing New Knowledge

This extensive article, authored by F. Eldemurov, a former chemistry and biology teacher specializing in the ancient Tarot system, explores a profound connection between the Russian alphabet and the ancient magical Tarot cards. The author posits that the structure, order, and imagery of the Russian alphabet bear a striking resemblance to the Tarot, suggesting a common, underlying source or universal system of knowledge. Eldemurov details how specific letters correspond to particular Tarot cards, citing examples like 'A' for 'Magician', 'Г' for 'Emperor', 'Ж' for 'Chariot', 'С' for 'Moon', and 'У' for 'The Last Judgment'. He also notes the correspondence of suits and numbers. The article suggests that this discovery is not merely coincidental but points to a deeper, universal law of creation that manifests across various domains, from crystal growth to human consciousness and cultural symbols.

The author argues that this synthesized knowledge, which integrates the alphabet, Tarot, astrological symbols, and even other scripts like Glagolitic and Sanskrit, allows for the extraction of esoteric information and the development of complex, multi-dimensional structures. The article touches upon the idea that this knowledge is being revealed now, perhaps indicating humanity is approaching a new threshold.

The Nature of Scientific Experimentation and its Limitations

An article by Karen Mkhitaryan discusses the fundamental requirements of a scientific experiment as defined by Newton-Galileo: independence from the observer, reproducibility, locality, and the inability of the observer to interfere. However, the author argues that these principles are often violated in various fields.

In biological, sociological, and parapsychological experiments, requirements 1 and 2 (measurability and locality) are frequently breached because it's impossible to quantify certain phenomena (e.g., behavior) using physical dimensions. Quantum mechanics fundamentally violates requirement 4, as the observer is intrinsically linked to the experiment. Statistical experiments often fail requirement 3 (reproducibility and observer independence), relying instead on average results. Mkhitaryan notes that when these experimental rules are broken, it's often considered a 'forced deviation,' with the hope that the consequences won't be too significant.

Spiritualism: 'Who Speaks With Me?'

This section, featuring contributions from Igor Semykin and T.V. Faminskaya, delves into the phenomenon of spiritualism. Semykin notes the surge in publications on anomalous phenomena since censorship was lifted, with spiritualism often overlooked due to its perceived 'slippery' nature and skepticism from the scientific community.

He outlines different forms of spiritualism: planchette and table-turning, pendulum dowsing, and psychography (automatic writing). Semykin highlights the work of F. Eldemurov and Yu.A. Fomin in exploring spiritualism in Russia. He estimates that at least one in ten randomly selected people might be a medium, raising concerns about the lack of objective information available to potential mediums.

A case study of a woman named Tonya is presented by T.V. Faminskaya. Tonya experienced severe physical and psychological symptoms after receiving metal dental crowns, which she initially believed were a result of a curse from her friend Lyuda. Faminskaya, an expert in anomalous phenomena and a consultant for NLO Center 'Solaris', diagnoses this as a case of professional incompetence rather than a curse. The metal in Tonya's mouth, interacting with her saliva, created microcurrents that affected her brain, mimicking symptoms of a curse. The article emphasizes that while Tonya's situation was resolved by addressing the dental issue, the concept of 'curses' is not merely a superstition but a real phenomenon.

Another case involves a woman named Valentina who actively practiced spiritualism. She reported being contacted by a spirit claiming to be a deceased young man named Vadim. This spirit began to exert control over her, leading to intense physical and psychological torment, including 'incubism' (sexual contact with the spirit) and threats. The article describes a session where the spirit's 'voice' manifested through Valentina, asserting possession. The author notes that such cases are not uncommon and that helping those affected is challenging, as the true nature of these spiritual contacts remains largely unknown.

Igor Semykin also discusses the potential dangers of spiritualism, citing a tragic case where teenagers involved in spirit contact allegedly committed a brutal murder. He appeals to individuals who have had negative experiences with spiritualism, or whose children have, to contact the Association 'Ecology of the Unknown' or NLO Center 'Solaris' for assistance.

The Concept of 'Curse' and 'Evil Eye'

Faminskaya further elaborates on the concept of 'curse' as a deliberate infliction of harm through magical means. She notes that while the term is often misused by modern 'sorcerers' and 'psychics' to cover a wide range of negative influences, genuine curses are rare (2-5% of cases). More common are phenomena like 'evil eye,' which stem from strong negative emotions (envy, resentment, dislike) directed at an individual. These negative emotional outbursts can manifest as minor misfortunes or more serious health issues.

The article also touches upon astrological influences and how individuals might misattribute personal misfortunes to external curses. Faminskaya criticizes many 'psychics' for misdiagnosing these issues as curses and offering ineffective remedies instead of addressing the root causes, such as environmental factors or personal psychological issues.

Experimental Photography of Spiritualist Sessions

Semykin mentions experiments involving the photographic capture of spiritualist sessions. One such photograph, taken during a session as instructed by the 'entity,' revealed a spiral-shaped formation on the medium's shoulder that was not visible to the naked eye. This, along with other findings, suggests a connection between spiritualism and other anomalous phenomena like hauntings, poltergeists, and UFOs.

He concludes by emphasizing that while over 90% of information received through such channels is likely false, the existence of intelligent forces interacting with us cannot be dismissed. The article also notes an unusual computer glitch during the editing process, where the cursor moved erratically, inserting text, which is presented as an example of the unpredictable nature of the phenomena being discussed.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently explores the intersection of science, spirituality, and the unexplained. There's a recurring theme of seeking universal connections and underlying systems, as seen in the analysis of the Russian alphabet and Tarot. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into anomalous phenomena, while also cautioning against misinformation and the potential dangers of uncontrolled spiritual or psychic practices. The publication encourages readers to share their experiences and seek help from their experts.

This issue of the magazine, identified by the date 07-09.94 and volume 60, is presented by НЛОЦ «Солярис» (UFO Center "Solaris"). The cover prominently features the headline "«Золотые страницы, лТД.» «Golden Pages Ltd.»" along with contact details for the publisher and a date of September 9, 1994. The magazine's content is divided into sections, including "Из архива "Соляриса"" (From the "Solaris" Archive), "АНОМАЛИНКА" (Anomaly), and "Информация" (Information).

From the "Solaris" Archive: "Well, you think, UFO..."

This section begins with a statement that some locations have become so accustomed to UFO sightings that they no longer attract local attention. Despite extensive information and archives on UFOs, a definitive answer to "what is a UFO?" remains elusive. The article presents a case from the village near Sasovo in the Ryazan region, observed on a warm night in early August 1992. A 12-year-old boy, Igor K., witnessed a yellow ball emitting yellow rays and making a strange high-pitched sound. He estimated its altitude at about 45 degrees above the horizon. When the ball disappeared behind a neighboring house, Igor ran after it and met some local boys who casually remarked, "So what? All sorts of things fly here often..."

Anomaly Section

This section, titled "АНОМАЛИНКА" (Anomaly), is described as a collection of amusing, sometimes absurd, "blunders," slips of the tongue, and misstatements found in "anomalous" literature and activities. It includes several examples:

• A reference to conversations under hypnosis from a book by a well-known ufologist about working with a contactee.
• A mention of a locator scanning Iran's expanses at night, attributed to "our colleagues' works."
• A reference to the "well-known American ufologist Jacky Velli," with a parenthetical note suggesting this might be Jacques Vallée, based on a Russian translation of John Keel's book "Operation Trojan Horse."
• A statement that "there are already many works in this area" from a book on parapsychology, authored by a candidate of medical sciences and expert from the "Ecology of the Unknown" Association and UFO Center "Solaris."

The section also humorously notes that "not only ufologists sin" with the Russian language, providing examples of phone conversations handled by dispatchers at the UFO Center "Solaris":

• A question about a son's zodiac sign, answered with "He's Russian... (variant - Armenian)."
• A statement about specialists accepting patients by appointment.
• A confused exchange about bringing sand or sugar cubes, and a question about whether "Solaris" treats with salts.

The magazine assures readers that these quotes and remarks are authentic and their original sources are kept in their archives.

Hypoxia Training and the "Hypoxicator"

Another significant portion of the magazine is dedicated to promoting a health method called Interval Hypoxia Training (IHT), facilitated by a device called the "Hypoxicator." The article questions why newborns and fetuses are more resistant to low oxygen levels than adults and explores the cyclical nature of fetal blood supply. It introduces the "Traid Medical" firm and its association members who developed an original method of health improvement by reactivating deep-seated mechanisms in the human body.

The "Hypoxicator" is presented as a replacement for pharmacies, hospitals, and resorts. It works by allowing users to breathe air with reduced oxygen content, mimicking the conditions experienced by a fetus. The method is credited with boosting the body's defenses, improving performance, reducing irritability, and promoting restful sleep. Testimonials from N. Levochkin (63 years old) and V. Suvorina (40 years old) are included, detailing their recovery from heart problems and bronchial asthma, respectively, through IHT.

The article lists a wide range of conditions that IHT can reportedly help with, including asthma, anemia, chronic bronchitis, gastrointestinal ulcers, cardiovascular diseases, allergies, neuroses, and gynecological issues. It is also recommended for preparing for pregnancy and childbirth, with a study of 40 women who all gave birth to healthy children after undergoing IHT.

Furthermore, IHT is claimed to have a radioprotective effect on healthy tissues in cancer patients and was initially developed as a method of protection during radiotherapy. The method has also been applied in cardiology and pulmonology. Several academics and doctors are credited with contributions to this field.

The article emphasizes that this method of health improvement using simulated mountain conditions is uniquely Russian. It traces its origins to ancient practices and the work of Russian scientist Kushelevsky in 1890, with modern advancements by "Traid Medical" making it accessible without the need to travel to high altitudes.

IHT is also promoted for athletes, with a candidate master of sports in track and field reporting significant improvements in his performance. The method is deemed effective for enhancing the body's defenses in urban environments with poor ecology, at hazardous workplaces, and in extreme conditions like polar regions, aviation, and submarines.

The "Hypoxicator" itself is described as a unique, domestically produced device. The article highlights its benefits for business people and decision-makers who experience constant stress, allowing them to improve their health, reduce fatigue, and boost performance without taking time off work. The cost of a course of treatment is mentioned as 200,000 rubles, significantly less than the cost of medications for asthmatics.

The "Hypoxicator" is patented, and specialists from the firm provide training. Contact information for "Traid Medical" in Moscow is provided, including their address and phone/fax numbers. The article concludes by stating that the specialists at "Traid Medical" are eager and able to help.

Subscription Information

The final section, "Информация" (Information), titled "«АНОМАЛИЯ» - 95: ПОДПИСКА" (Anomaly - 95: Subscription), announces that the bulletin has increased in size by 16 pages. It provides subscription prices in rubles for Russia, CIS, and foreign countries for both 1994 and 1995. Group subscription discounts are also mentioned. Payment details are provided, including a bank account number for the "ECOLOGY OF THE UNKNOWN" Small Enterprise, and contact information for inquiries and correspondence.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently promotes alternative and unconventional approaches to health and well-being, particularly through the "Hypoxicator" and Interval Hypoxia Training. There is a strong emphasis on the Russian origin and effectiveness of these methods. The publication also maintains an interest in unexplained phenomena, as evidenced by the UFO sighting report and the "Anomaly" section, which collects curious linguistic and factual errors. The editorial stance appears to be one of open-mindedness towards the unusual, while also providing practical information and promoting specific products and services related to health and wellness.
