Magazine Overview

Title: BÚSQUEDA
Issue: 11
Date: June 1989

This issue of BÚSQUEDA, a bulletin for research and investigation into UFOs and parapsychology, features a cover story on 'LA TORRE DE BABEL' (The Tower of Babel). The magazine is published in Girona, Spain.

The Tower of Babel and Extraterrestrial Contact

The lead article interprets the biblical story of the Tower of Babel as a consequence of events motivating the destruction of Eden, driven by two opposing forces: 'god' (good) and 'demon' (evil). It suggests that the construction of the tower, mentioned in Genesis chapter 11, might have been a spherical ship rather than a literal tower. The text posits that the confusion of languages was the destruction of a secret language spread across the planet, now only understood by initiates. The article also touches upon cabalistic phrases and the meaning of 'Babel' as 'rotation', linking it to spinning objects.

Defense of Luis Brieva and Criticism of Miguel A. Chamorro

A significant portion of the magazine is dedicated to a response by Luis Brieva to an article by D. Miguel A. Chamorro titled '¿El mundo de Hock?' (The World of Hock?). Brieva defends his own integrity and research, emphasizing his dedication and inability to publish falsehoods. He criticizes Chamorro's use of the word 'expulgar' (to purge/expel) and his interpretation of Brieva's work, particularly regarding the use of the Ouija board and the concept of 'jealousy' in contactee experiences. Brieva clarifies that his mention of the Ouija board was about its initial use and the subsequent need for other communication methods due to issues within groups.

Brieva also addresses Chamorro's allusions to the devil, incubi, and succubi, deeming them medieval beliefs that have been surpassed. He shares his personal knowledge of the 'Hock' phenomenon and expresses a desire for Brieva's book, 'El misterioso mundo de Hock,' to be published in installments.
