Editorial: A Personal Tragedy

The issue opens with a deeply personal and somber editorial by Miguel A. Chamorro, the director of Búsqueda. He announces the passing of his 15-year-old daughter, Jimena, who was also a budding collaborator for the magazine. Chamorro expresses his profound grief and the impact of her loss on his identity, while also finding solace in his family's spiritual beliefs and the support of the Búsqueda community. He reflects on Jimena's courage and the lessons learned from her and her parents' strength in facing this tragedy, urging readers to remember her not with sorrow, but with gratitude.

Ni Rusos ni Americanos: ¿Extraterrestres?

This article by Aime Michel questions the common assumption that unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and their occupants are of Russian or American origin. Michel explores the idea that they might be 'extraterrestrials' but questions the delay in contact and the potential existence of such phenomena in ancient times, referencing biblical texts. The author also delves into the physical descriptions of 'little pilots' associated with UFOs, noting their disconcerting appearance and suggesting they might be a product of biological manipulation rather than beings from another planet. The article touches upon the psychological and evolutionary implications of such encounters.

El Oscuro Velo

This section discusses the history of US government projects investigating UFOs, starting with Project Signo in 1947, followed by Project Grudge, and the more famous Project Blue Book. It highlights the initial objective of disproving the phenomenon, the evolving stance of advisors like Dr. Allen Hynek, and the persistent unexplained cases. The article also touches upon alleged cover-ups, the controversy surrounding the Roswell incident, and the 'Majestic-12' committee. It introduces the 'Informe Matrix,' suggesting a government agreement with extraterrestrials for technology in exchange for human beings, and briefly mentions the enigmatic 'Men in Black.'

¿Cuál es el secreto?

Antonio Aguilera Cambra explores the enduring mystery surrounding the UFO phenomenon. He notes the military's long-standing interest in controlling information about UFOs, suggesting it's one of the best-kept secrets. The article posits that the secrecy has contributed to the mythologization of the phenomenon. It questions who or what is behind these events and highlights the difficulty in accessing definitive data. The author also touches upon the possibility of extraterrestrial visitors, beings from other dimensions, or secret military projects involving advanced prototypes. The article concludes by suggesting that the secrecy might stem from a fear of revealing that current technology is obsolete compared to UFO capabilities, or perhaps a hidden pact with unknown entities.

El primer ovni que vi

Joan Josep Ribas i Costumero recounts his personal sighting of a UFO on June 12, 1974, in Tossa de Mar, Girona. He describes a large, luminous, red and orange object with a spiral shape and violet hues. The sighting lasted for about an hour, with the object changing form and color before disappearing, leaving an orange trail. He attempted to paint the phenomenon as he had no camera. The article also includes a separate account from Rosita, who witnessed a UFO on March 11, 1969, near Tossa de Mar while traveling in an ambulance.

Conocer el percal

Luis Brieva discusses the confusion surrounding ufology, criticizing those who claim direct contact with extraterrestrials. He proposes a division of origins for beings interacting with humans: extraterrestrials with superior intelligence and technology, and intraterrestrials. Brieva suggests that messages from 'extraterrestrials' often focus on love, which he finds simplistic and potentially manipulative, arguing that true messages would be more complex. He believes that humanity's evolution is its own responsibility and that extraterrestrials would not intervene in a catastrophe. The article also explores the concept of intraterrestrials, possibly accessing Earth through polar openings or dimensional portals, and suggests that many reported sightings are of their craft. Brieva concludes by stating that beings from both extraterrestrial and intraterrestrial origins coexist with us, issuing warnings about environmental care.

CIPNO Circular Paracientífica del Noroeste

This section introduces CIPNO, a publication from a group of young people interested in parapsychology in northwestern Spain. Its aim is to facilitate the circulation of information on paranormal events in the region, including press clippings, investigation reports, and news. The initiative arose from the perceived deficiencies in the dissemination of such information.

Artículo tomado de CIPNO: Conferencia de Pitita Ridruejo en Vigo

This article reports on a conference by Pitita Ridruejo in Vigo, focusing on Marian apparitions. Ridruejo presented the Virgin's appearances from a divine perspective, suggesting they occur during times of crisis. The article notes her controversial statement that parapsychology is harming the perception of Marian apparitions, implying that attempts to explain these phenomena rationally are detrimental. The author expresses skepticism about Ridruejo's claims and the mystical approach to the topic.

Preguntas Hipótesis: La Hipótesis de Agrest

This section discusses the hypothesis proposed by Soviet physicist Agrest in 1959, suggesting that extraterrestrials visited Earth in prehistoric and protohistoric times. Agrest based his theory on interpretations of the Bible, Hindu epics, and ancient traditions, viewing beings like the Elohim and Angels as extraterrestrials. He interpreted the Baalbek stone structure as a launch/landing site and suggested that events like the destruction of Sodoma and Gomorra were atomic explosions. The hypothesis also posits that biblical figures like Enoch and Elijah might have been extraterrestrials, and that Yahweh himself could have been one.

Budd Hopkins: Intruso

This article critiques Budd Hopkins, author of 'Intruders,' accusing him of supporting the fraudulent Gulf Breeze UFO case. Investigator Willy Smith claims Hopkins advised on how to profit from the case. The article reiterates a previous critical opinion of Hopkins' work as sensationalist, morbid, and a means to financial gain, questioning his expertise and suggesting he is irresponsibly speculating on the topic.

Panorama Actual del Estudio e Investigación del Satanismo y la Demonología

This section reports on the 'I Seminario Nacional de Satanismo y Demonología' held in Majadahonda, Spain. It highlights 1990 as a year of increased Satanic cult activity in Spain, marked by alleged possessions, strange deaths, and desecrations. The seminar aimed to investigate Satanism scientifically. Manuel Carballal, an advisor, views the Devil as a projection of human negativity, with varying interpretations across cultures. He notes the rise of Satanism in Spain, particularly among youth, as an alternative to a perceived outdated Christian God. Gabriel Carrión discusses the 'Syndrome of the Malignant,' a contagious phenomenon that could lead to a 'witch hunt' against various groups and phenomena, including UFOs and occultism.

Parapsicología e Investigación Científica

Federico Antonio Sánchez Arias, President of the Parapsychology Association of Madrid, states that the worship of the Devil is a relatively recent manifestation, appearing in Christian history around the 16th and 17th centuries. He suggests that earlier medieval sects might have engaged in Satanic practices, but it's largely a religious fiction based on older mythologies. The Church, he explains, accused individuals who destabilized power structures or Christian conduct, including those with parapsychological abilities and those practicing different forms of sexuality, of being Satanists.

El Diablo y el Amor: ¿Visitantes de Dormitorios?

This article explores the historical phenomenon of 'bedroom visitors,' linking it to demons like incubi and succubi. It suggests that these entities have been a concern for Christian thinkers for centuries, with the belief that they could engage in amorous relations with humans, sometimes resulting in offspring. The article cites St. Augustine and St. Brigid on the devil's involvement in sexual temptation. It discusses the theological debate about whether spirits could experience carnal pleasure and concludes that demons could assume tangible forms. The text recounts the story of Hieronyma, who was tormented by an incubus, and draws parallels between these historical accounts and modern UFO encounters, suggesting that the phenomenon of 'visitors' persists, merely changing its guise from demons to extraterrestrials (ET).

Veredicto

Miguel A. Chamorro reflects on the concept of death as a spiritual liberation, a belief challenged by personal loss. He expresses his pain and confusion following the death of his daughter, Jimena, referring to it as a divine intervention that has deeply affected him. The poem 'Titiritero Divino' expresses his anguish and plea to a divine puppeteer to untangle the threads of life and restore harmony.

Desvelando Símbolos

This section, by P. Muñoz, discusses the interpretation of symbols. It emphasizes that symbols must be understood within their historical and cultural context, as their meanings can deform over time. The article highlights the complexity of symbol interpretation, requiring study of their evolution. It quotes C. Jung on the unconscious mind's use of symbols and suggests that understanding this language could lead to greater self-awareness and clearer communication. The author advocates for developing both rational and intuitive minds, questioning why humans often settle for only half their potential.

La verdad es que en todos los casos forman sociedades cerradas, es decir, círculos no abiertos a otras personas que no sean las de sus propios pueblos, conservando su medicina, tecnología y sabiduría.

— Luis Brieva
