Magazine Overview
Title: La Gazette de l'Ufo
Issue: Numéro 25
Date: July 7, 2016
Theme: UFOs, Archaeology, Science, Multiverse
This issue of La Gazette de l'Ufo presents a diverse array of articles, blending archaeological discoveries with cutting-edge scientific theories and investigations into unexplained phenomena.
I - L'Aveyron fait encore parler de lui !
The issue opens with a report on a significant archaeological find in Aveyron, France. During excavation work, Sébastien du Fayet de la Tour discovered a remarkable statuette dating back to the Paleolithic era. This artifact, sculpted, engraved, and incised on a phalanx of a bovid (bison or aurochs), was found in the Grotte de Foissac. Despite its age and the challenging conditions of the cave (subject to water fluctuations and constant temperature/humidity), the statuette is remarkably preserved. It is currently undergoing expert studies, particularly in parietal art, and is on display at the site's museum. The article humorously notes that if the statuette had had almond-shaped eyes, the discovery would have been even more exceptional.
II - Publications
This section highlights upcoming publications and ongoing projects. Jean-Pierre Petit is set to release a book on UFOs in the autumn, co-authored with Jean-Claude Bourret. The article announces this with a link to more information. It then delves into the "OVNI : l'incroyable découverte" campaign, lamenting that the public has been "blacklisted" by French media regarding the FRIPON network. The article contrasts this with the UFO/Catch project, which is presented as being years ahead of FRIPON in development and capabilities, including spectrum capture and a fish-eye camera system. The budget and engineering effort behind FRIPON are noted, with Jean-Christophe Doré credited for developing his systems in his garage. The author expresses frustration over the media's silence regarding UFO/Catch, attributing it to a long-standing media blackout since 1991, citing only two past TV appearances that were quickly curtailed.
The UFO/Catch Project and Media Blackout
Jean-Claude Bourret contacted the author with the idea of co-authoring a book titled "Jean-Claude Bourret interviews Jean-Pierre Petit," with all proceeds going to UFO-Science to fund the UFO/Catch network. Unlike FRIPON's substantial budget, UFO/Catch relies on grassroots efforts. The book aims to be a bestseller to generate funds for developing kits for individuals to equip themselves with surveillance cameras and for creating adjustable phone envelopes to capture spectra. The UFO/Catch system is designed to transform a simple image of a source into a 3D trajectory, providing distance, altitude, speed, and acceleration, a feat not achieved by FRIPON's cameras which are focused on tracking meteorites. The author expresses skepticism about FRIPON's data reaching the public, suggesting it would be immediately blacked out by the military, whom they identify as the project's true instigator. The ambition is to make UFO/Catch a global initiative, a "wild research" outside institutional and associative frameworks. The authors believe that neither the scientific community nor official services will provide answers to the UFO enigma, and they are committed to seeking the truth themselves.
The Role of "Ufologists"
The article questions the effectiveness of traditional ufological methods, such as collecting testimonies, suggesting they do not advance the subject. It proposes that UFO/Catch offers a new path, with plans and software to be disseminated globally. The upcoming book, "OVNI : l'Incroyable Découverte," is described as a 340-page work aiming for bestseller status, with its publication being a crucial media event. The author emphasizes that without Bourret, this operation would not have been launched.
III - Vortex et disparitions
This section shifts focus to the phenomenon of vortices and disappearances, presenting a case from the Russian Far East in 1989. A Soviet naval agent, identified as D.A., disappeared during an expedition in the taiga. While on a hill, he and two hunters encountered a strange, impermeable cloud-like object. The hunters used it as a makeshift shelter, but D.A., feeling a repulsive force, jumped into it. He found himself in an unknown, warm, sunny environment with palm-like trees and a vast ocean. He was then met by three individuals from the 21st century who offered him a ride in an unusual vehicle to a "laboratory." After answering numerous questions, he was offered to stay but refused, citing his family. The strangers then returned him to the same location, with no time having passed. The article notes the absence of missing time in this account. The witness was found in an excited state, with his friend initially angered by his disappearance. The source is cited as "Iks" (UFO journal) from Moldova. The commentary questions whether this was a future reality, a mind-control exercise, or disguised aliens, and probes the source of the fear experienced by the witnesses.
Case Analysis and Parallel Worlds
The case is presented as a remarkable example of a witness reacting boldly to a curious "cloud" or vortex. The author posits that this supports the hypothesis of parallel worlds, describing the phenomenon as a spatio-temporal vortex or "space-time bubble" interfering with our three-dimensional world. The witness's encounter with visitors who invited him to follow them for an examination is highlighted, noting the lack of missing time. The case is compared to that of Corporal Armando Valdès Garrido from Chile in 1977.
IV - Stroboscope
Robert Lortal addresses inquiries about stroboscopes, phosphénisme, and their connection to psychic research. He explains that as a healthcare aide, he has participated in electroencephalogram (EEG) exams that utilize stroboscopic light directed at the patient's forehead. These flashes can cause artifacts in the EEG readings or even trigger epileptic seizures. He mentions the Lucia lamp as a sophisticated stroboscope using a computer for infinite adjustments but states he has no personal experience with its effectiveness. Regarding a connection to yoga, he states there is none to his knowledge. He references ancient psychic researchers, particularly from the East, and some from the late 20th century, who used a technique called "Phosphénisme." This involves fixing the flame of a candle (or a white light bulb in the West) for a few minutes, then closing the eyes and placing hands in front of them to create a black screen, which can produce geometric images with colors. The effect can last 2-3 minutes, but he is unsure if it leads to spiritual knowledge.
Yoga and Personal Evolution
Lortal shares his personal journey with yoga, which began in October 1968 when he was 22. Now 70, he emphasizes that the number of years practicing is not a measure of personal evolution but that consistency and regularity lead to self-knowledge. He typically begins his yoga sessions around 4 AM, finding it ideal for physical yoga after digestion and for meditation when the mind is alert. Through physical yoga and prolonged immobility, practitioners become aware of internal organs and muscles, eventually being able to feel and see them. He describes hearing the circulation of blood and seeing the digestive system, which he finds unsettling due to the perceived impurities. He details a cleansing technique learned in India involving drinking lightly salted water, opening the pylorus, circulating the water through the digestive system until it is expelled cleanly, and then closing the pylorus. This process, performed once a year during the solstices, takes about two hours. He is unsure if these techniques are practiced in the West.
Meditation and Consciousness
Regarding meditation, Lortal explains that through yoga and long periods of immobility, one can control breath and maintain stillness. This immobility is crucial for entering the "Self." He describes personal experiences during meditation, including sensations of tingling, itching, intense heat followed by cold, and internal jolts. He advises remaining still and observing, maintaining an alert consciousness. With progress, one may lose the perception of the physical body, becoming pure consciousness, where individual identity becomes less significant than that of other beings or even inanimate objects. Meditation involves various stages of awakening and perception, connecting consciousness to itself, the present, the past, and potentially the future.
Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance
The magazine consistently promotes a skeptical yet open-minded approach to UFO phenomena, often criticizing mainstream media and scientific institutions for their perceived dismissal or suppression of evidence. There is a strong emphasis on independent research and citizen-led initiatives like UFO/Catch. The publication also explores the intersection of science and spirituality, particularly through the lens of quantum physics and esoteric concepts like the multiverse and consciousness. The editorial stance appears to favor a proactive, truth-seeking approach, encouraging readers to question established narratives and to participate in uncovering what they believe to be hidden truths.
Title: La Gazette de l'Ufo
Issue: 25
Date: July 7, 2016
Publisher: Gwion Coat ar Roc'h
This issue of La Gazette de l'Ufo, dated July 7, 2016, explores a variety of topics related to ufology, consciousness, and unexplained phenomena. It features discussions on intermediate states of consciousness, a controversy involving an unauthorized Facebook publication, a conference on extraterrestrial contact, the mystery of ancient spheres, and the nature of Mars's satellites.
Consciousness and Intermediate Spaces
The issue begins with a discussion on consciousness, referencing ancient concepts like 'NAWAZ' energies. It introduces the idea of intermediate spaces between ordinary consciousness (point C) and sleep (point S), including a dream point (O) and a meditation point (M). The text suggests that working with these spaces, particularly through meditation, can help individuals access different realities and states of being. However, it also notes that the energetic shifts during the transition between C and S can be problematic for individuals with epilepsy, citing Emperor Jules Caesar as an example.
Philosophical Reflections and Quotes
Two significant quotes are presented. The first is from Ramana Maharshi, an Indian sage, who emphasizes the power of focused attention, stating that a single, controlled thought can be more potent than a multitude of uncontrolled ones. The second quote is attributed to Zarathustra, highlighting serenity as the foundation of effective action and happiness, achieved when the 'self' (soi) takes precedence over the limited 'ego' (moi). This serenity comes from understanding that senses and mind are instruments of the 'self,' which is a powerful, unknown master residing within one's body.
Controversy: Unauthorized Facebook Publication
A significant portion of the issue addresses a controversy involving the 'Académie d'Ufologie.' Jacky Kozan from the academy issues a warning that a publication was made on a Facebook page called 'Groupe d'études Ovni en France' without their authorization. This publication allegedly conflates 'Ovni en France,' a 'Facebook Ovni en France Academy,' and the official Académie d'Ufologie, using the latter's logo to imply an agreement with Marc Raimbaud. The Académie d'Ufologie states that no such agreement exists and that they are taking action to have the publication removed and a rectification published.
Conference: Nicole Dhuin on Interstellar Confederation
The issue features a report on a conference by Nicole Dhuin, who, after a scientific background and various careers, began investigating paranormal phenomena in 1985. Dhuin, who also identifies as a medium and healer, discusses the 'Interstellar Confederation,' described as a group of planets working with wisdom and love. This confederation, formed after the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, reportedly observes humanity's use of nuclear force and intervenes to mitigate its harmful effects. Dhuin conveys a message from these beings, who come from planets like Ummo and Alpha Centauri, emphasizing that they bring peace and seek to help Earth, not invade it.
Ancient Spheres Mystery
Under the section 'Mystère de sphères antiques,' Georges Metz reports on the discovery of a large, ancient sphere in a forest in Bosnia-Herzegovina. This is presented as the third such discovery, following smaller spheres found in Spain and Vietnam. The Bosnian sphere is described as weighing 30 tons and measuring between 1.2 and 1.5 meters in diameter. While some scientists suggest it is a rock, its brown and red color indicates a high iron content. The materials have not yet been analyzed, but the sphere's appearance has sparked debate, with some suggesting it could be an extraterrestrial construction.
Mars Satellites: Phobos and Deimos
The section 'Perception sur les satellites de Mars' details a curious perception experienced by Daniel Hoffnung. He received information suggesting that Mars has only one natural satellite, with Phobos being natural and Deimos being artificial. His research into images of Deimos revealed a smooth surface with impact marks, while Phobos showed numerous craters and curious towers or cones that appear unnatural. This leads to a hypothesis that Phobos might be inhabited internally or be an artificial satellite itself. The discussion involves contributions from Cristel Seval, Georges Metz, and Pierig, who recall similar hypotheses and mention incidents related to the Phobos 2 mission, suggesting the possible presence of 'visitors' who may not welcome intrusion.
Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance
The magazine consistently explores themes of consciousness, extraterrestrial contact, and unexplained phenomena. The editorial stance appears to be open to diverse perspectives, encouraging respectful debate and the sharing of personal experiences and research, while also cautioning against charlatanism and exploitation within the ufology field. The emphasis on personal perception and the search for truth, even when it challenges conventional understanding, is evident throughout the articles and discussions.
