Article: "La Casa de Bombas"

This article by Eulogio Soto Mahe investigates a location known as "La Casa de Bombas" (The House of Pumps) in Cuatro de Altamira, Salamanca, Mexico. The place is described as a site where fear is perceived due to aggressive entities that reportedly reside there. The author discusses the nature of paranormal phenomena, linking them to the mind and sensitivity, and notes the historical interest in inexplicable physical phenomena. The article recounts experiences of former caretakers, Don Antonio Contreras and Don Alfredo Pérez (El Tilico), who reported hearing footsteps, the cries of a child, and feeling a sudden push or a blast of cold air. Don Antonio also mentioned an incident involving a dog that seemed to be shot but disappeared without a trace. The location is said to be avoided by locals due to its reputation and ongoing phenomena, despite vandalism during the day.

Article: "Agua de Mar" (Seawater) - Part 4

Pedro Pozas Terrado's article focuses on the dire situation in Haiti following a devastating earthquake and the subsequent cholera outbreak. The author criticizes the international community, politicians, and NGOs for their slow and insufficient response, highlighting the corruption and lack of aid reaching the affected population. He points out that millions of euros were raised but little has materialized to alleviate the suffering, with many people dying from cholera and malnutrition without access to basic medical care. The article proposes seawater as a simple, free, and effective remedy for cholera and malnutrition, referencing the work of French scientist Rene Quinton, who reportedly used seawater to combat cholera in Egypt in 1912. The author laments that organizations like OMDIMAR, which promotes this solution, have received no response despite their efforts to communicate the potential benefits of seawater for health and development, including agriculture.

Article: "10 años entre Ovnis y profecías de Benjamín Solari Parravicini"

This article by Martha Núñez Vanderhoeven commemorates the 10th anniversary of the prophecies of Benjamín Solari Parravicini, an Argentinean artist and mystic known for his predictions, many of which relate to UFOs and future events.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue of Misterios magazine include UFOs and unexplained aerial phenomena, paranormal activity, historical enigmas, and fringe science. There is a strong emphasis on investigative journalism, presenting detailed accounts of alleged events and offering potential explanations or theories. The magazine also demonstrates a critical stance towards official narratives and mainstream media, particularly evident in the article on Haiti, where the author voices strong criticism of governmental and organizational responses. The editorial stance, as expressed by Fernando García, is one of perseverance in the face of adversity and a commitment to exploring the unknown, even when met with misunderstanding or opposition. The magazine appears to champion unconventional ideas and perspectives, encouraging readers to question established norms and explore the deeper mysteries of existence.

This issue of Misterios magazine, identified as issue number 136, presents a diverse range of topics centered around unexplained phenomena and alternative perspectives on health and reality. The cover prominently features the headline "EL MAR FUENTE DE VIDA Y SALUD" (The Sea Source of Life and Health), indicating a significant focus on the therapeutic potential of seawater. The magazine also delves into the complex subject of UFOs, offering personal interpretations and historical prophecies.

The Sea: A Source of Life and Health

The lead article, attributed to Pedro Pozas Terrados, passionately advocates for the use of seawater as a basic necessity to combat malnutrition and cholera, particularly in the context of crises like the one in Haiti. The author criticizes the 'passivity, troglodytism, and anti-scientific' approach of some organizations, questioning why potential treatments with historical and scientific backing, like those proposed by Rene Quinton, are not being investigated. The article poses rhetorical questions about the consequences of ignoring such possibilities and the potential for saving lives with a free and abundant remedy. It quotes French writer and historian Jule Michele, who stated, "The generosity of the sea shames the economies of the Earth." The author urges for humility and a willingness to test the hypothesis that seawater can alleviate suffering and provide a sense of purpose.

UFOs: A Personal Explanation

This section, subtitled "Una explicación personal" (A Personal Explanation) and presented as the 3rd part of a series, features contributions from Oscar L. Ferreyra Soslo, Coordinator of the Ufological Cafe of Mendoza, Argentina. Ferreyra Soslo discusses the contamination of UFO case data by various explanatory trends and how witnesses can be influenced by science fiction. He ponders whether UFO events might originate from humanity's collective unconscious, referencing cases like Salvador Villanueva Medina's alleged journey to Venus. The author suggests that many UFO occurrences are 'philosophically real, but physically unreal,' questioning if Venus, for instance, plays a role in the philosophical framework of UFOs. He also touches upon the recurring presence of Ganymede and stars in UFO cases, proposing that these might be part of a cosmic sense-making process.

Further insights into ufology are provided through a letter from Antonio Ribera to Oscar L. Ferreyra Soslo, dated August 29, 1984. Ribera apologizes for his delayed response, citing a contract with Editorial Planeta for a series of books and health issues. He mentions his books such as "SECUESTRADOS POR EXTRATERRESTRES" (Abducted by Extraterrestrials) and "ENCUENTROS CON HUMANOIDES" (Encounters with Humanoids). Ribera also discusses the concept of 'fifth type contacts' and the New Age movement, noting the frequent lack of physical proof in such claims. He touches upon the idea of UFOs being an 'irremediable destiny' towards space and references authors like Daniken and Stanislav Grof. Ribera engages with the idea of extraterrestrial origins, questioning the term 'extraterrestrial' and suggesting a broader interpretation of 'beyond the senses' or 'beyond the earth,' possibly linked to concepts from Krishnamurti or Indian wisdom. He highlights the work of Fabio Zerpa and his discussions on parapsychology and the nature of the unknown.

Ferreyra Soslo continues his exploration, distinguishing between scientific and philosophical approaches to ufology. He posits that the phenomenon might lie 'intermediate between science fiction and reality,' and that while common sense defines reality, many UFO phenomena defy it. He argues that ufology is a philosophical discipline and that for it to become scientific, it would need to convince the scientific community and provide physical evidence, like a complete flying saucer. He references the historical 'airship flap' of 1897 in the United States, questioning if these were advanced craft or something else entirely. He also discusses the idea of a 'collective memory' and the possibility that UFOs are not contemporary but have manifested throughout history.

The article "LOS CONTACTOS DEL QUINTO TIPO. NOMBRES Y ENCUENTROS. SECTAS Y ESOTERISMO DE LA NEW AGE" examines the claims of contactees like Sixto Paz Wells and Virolon, who report encounters with 'Elohims.' The author notes the persistent lack of physical evidence, relying solely on their accounts and associated self-help groups within the New Age movement. He questions the androgynous nature of the entities described by contactees and suggests it might reflect human desires or a message about resolving sexual issues. The article also explores the origins of religious and spiritual manifestations, linking them to ancient sects and the concept of 'alma' (soul), and notes how these ideas evolve into modern religions and New Age beliefs. The author touches upon the potential dangers of such movements, referencing the Temple of Solar tragedy and a suicide in Argentina linked to a group called Radar.

Ferreyra Soslo concludes this section by discussing the concept of 'control' in ufology, as proposed by Jacques Valleé, suggesting that the theme of UFOs continues to expand globally despite the lack of concrete evidence, driven by the belief of many individuals. He notes that ufology itself is evolving, with researchers adapting their perspectives.

Nocturnia Serenitas: Sintiendo la realidad

This section features a poem titled "Sintiendo la realidad" (Feeling Reality) by "El Príncipe Contrahecho" (The Crooked Prince). The poem uses evocative imagery of winter, rain, commercialism, and fleeting emotions to explore themes of disillusionment and the struggle for genuine connection in a superficial world.

Dos Mentes, Idea y Media

This section presents two pieces: "ERASE UNA VEZ..." (Once Upon a Time...) by Mirta Rodriguez Corderi, and a continuation of a narrative by Eduardo.

Mirta Rodriguez Corderi's piece is a tribute to Eduardo, describing his intellectual development from infancy and his profound impact on her. She recounts how Eduardo, through his writing, makes her feel like a "Galactic Empress" and a woman of "brilliant intelligence and exceptional glamour." She recalls a specific "Erase una vez" story he told her about a woman who ignited passions, possessed a strong will, and embodied unconditional love and generosity. Corderi reflects on her deep connection with Eduardo, describing him as her "faithful wife, my accomplice by choice, in presence and in flight, in matter and in ether."

Eduardo's narrative, which he was writing when Corderi entered his study, continues the story. He describes his feelings of affection and pride towards Corderi, referring to her as his "comet" and expressing his role as her 'godfather.' He contemplates whether she represents a source of vanity in his otherwise frugal existence. He describes her as eternal, with captivating eyes and a captivating presence, and emphasizes the profound, almost spiritual, connection they share, likening it to roots intertwined with an ancient tree.

10 Years Between UFOs and Prophecies

This section presents a collection of prophecies by Benjamin Solari Parravicini, compiled by Martha Núñez Vanderhoeven from a 1969 supplement titled "CONOCIMIENTO DE LA NUEVA ERA" (Knowledge of the New Era).

The prophecies are categorized into several themes:

• About Inhabitants on the Moon: A prophecy from 1967 foreseeing a lunar rocket encountering danger but possessing a weapon to dispel a glacial atmosphere, and a mysterious call from the 'funerary' that will go unanswered.
• About Humanity's Path to Perdition: A prophecy from 1937 warning about the "era of gold" leading to destruction, and another from 1940 predicting the rise of enigmatic religions, false prophets, and a shift towards the non-existence of good and evil.
• "Demumbe de Europa. Comienza el 66" (Europe's Collapse. It Begins with '66'): A prophecy from 1951.
• The Symbol of the New Era: This section includes further prophecies:

Martha Núñez Vanderhoeven shares her personal journey into ufology, influenced by her late husband's enthusiasm for Parravicini's work. She recounts how she became involved in online forums and shared photocopies of the prophecies to disseminate the information.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue of Misterios magazine consistently explores themes of the unknown, alternative healing, and future predictions. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry, encouraging readers to question established norms and consider unconventional explanations. There is a strong emphasis on the potential of natural remedies like seawater, a critical view of bureaucratic obstacles to progress, and a fascination with the mysteries of UFOs and extraterrestrial life. The inclusion of prophecies suggests a belief in predetermined destinies or significant future events that shape human existence. The magazine seems to position itself as a platform for exploring these less-trodden paths of knowledge, blending scientific skepticism with a willingness to entertain philosophical and spiritual interpretations of phenomena.

This issue of "Misterios" (Issue 136) delves into a range of unexplained phenomena, with a strong focus on UFO incidents, alleged government cover-ups, and darker aspects of the paranormal, including black magic and folklore.

Prophecies for Argentina

The magazine presents a series of prophecies attributed to various dates, concerning the future of Argentina. These include predictions of a "French Revolution" with bloodshed, the emergence of a "new man," and Argentina becoming a "Samaritan nation" for the world. One prophecy from 1940 speaks of neighbors becoming brothers after a great test and the downfall of a "mandón" (leader). Another from 1941 suggests the middle class will save Argentina, leading to its triumph. A 1939 prophecy mentions "Maranhata" and the virgin arriving in Argentina amidst chaos. A 1972 prophecy foretells Argentina presenting the "new man" who will teach. A 1942 prophecy describes Argentina as a "heavenly port" offering refuge to those in need. These prophecies are accompanied by symbolic drawings.

The Virgin of Garabandal

A section discusses the apparitions of the Virgin Mary in Garabandal, Spain. It recounts a prophecy from 1938 about a "celestial word" reaching a Spanish village and the Virgin arriving, escorted by the Archangel Gabriel. The text mentions four girls—Conchita González, Maricruz González, Jacinta González, and Mari Loli Mazón—who reported apparitions starting in 1961, initially of an angel, followed by the Virgin Mary under the invocation of Our Lady of Mount Carmel.

"I Tego Arcana Dei - El Templo"

This section appears to be a promotional piece or prologue for a book titled "I Tego Arcana Dei - El Templo," co-authored by Fernando Miro, Frank Escandell, and George Wembagher. It emphasizes the author's extensive travel experience and passion for exploring the unusual and the magical aspects of Andalusia, Spain. The author expresses a deep connection to his homeland and a desire to enrich its heritage by uncovering and sharing its most fabulous stories.

The Kecksburg Incident

A significant portion of the magazine is dedicated to the Kecksburg UFO incident, which occurred on December 5, 1965, in Kecksburg, Pennsylvania. The article details witness testimonies, radar detections, and the appearance of a strange object described as a "ball of fire" or a "star with four points," later reported as conical or bell-shaped. The incident involved a crash in the woods, followed by a swift military intervention that allegedly took precedence over local police. Reporter John Murphy's investigation, his confiscation of photographs, and his subsequent suspicious death are highlighted. The article questions the official explanations, including the "meteorite" theory and later suggestions of a Soviet satellite, pointing to inconsistencies and a potential cover-up. It draws parallels between the Kecksburg object and the Nazi "Die Glocke" (The Bell) project, suggesting a possible connection to advanced, possibly extraterrestrial, technology.

UFOlogy Section

This section continues the discussion on the Kecksburg incident, examining the conflicting explanations provided by the military, NASA, and witnesses. It criticizes the way governments declassify UFO-related information, often releasing non-compromising cases while withholding truly revealing ones under the guise of "National Security." The article notes that the mystery of Kecksburg remains unresolved.

Black Magic and UFOs in Pennsylvania

Another article explores the darker side of paranormal phenomena in Pennsylvania, focusing on alleged black magic practices, satanism, and witchcraft in the Laurel Highlands region. It references a legend about an indigenous chief, Oppaymolleah, who cursed the land, predicting a future of fear and conflict. The article links these practices to increased sightings of UFOs and Bigfoot. It describes rituals involving animal sacrifices and vandalism, and mentions the presence of symbols like pentagrams and the number "666." The article also touches upon the organization PASU (Pennsylvania Association for the Study of the Unexplained) and its investigations into these phenomena.

Bigfoot and Mothman

The "Enigmas" section discusses Bigfoot sightings, particularly in Derry, Pennsylvania, which is dubbed the "Bigfoot Capital of the World." It describes encounters with large, hairy creatures and questions their nature, suggesting they might be holograms or something other than terrestrial beings. The article also references John Keel's work on "The Mothman Prophecies," linking a strange figure seen in Point Pleasant, Ohio, to witchcraft and potential extraterrestrial involvement.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are the unexplained, the mysterious, and the potentially hidden truths behind official narratives. The magazine adopts a critical stance towards government agencies and military bodies, suggesting a pattern of secrecy and obfuscation regarding UFO incidents and other paranormal events. There is a consistent exploration of folklore, legends, and witness testimonies, often presented as more credible than official explanations. The editorial stance appears to favor investigating and questioning, encouraging readers to consider alternative explanations for phenomena that defy conventional understanding.

This issue of 'Misterios' magazine, number 136, delves into a variety of unexplained phenomena and historical mysteries. The cover prominently features an interview with Marcelo Martorelli on the topic of 'Hollow Earth'. The magazine explores UFO sightings, ancient art interpretations, mythology, and new scientific discoveries.

Encounters with the Unknown: Black Helicopters and Mysterious Beings

The issue details several intriguing incidents. Two investigators in the Laurel Highlands, USA, reported a silent, black helicopter flying over a restricted air zone, followed by military vehicles that vanished. In Pennsylvania, a farmer encountered a man in black emerging from a helicopter who questioned him aggressively. A significant portion of the magazine is dedicated to the 'Conil Case' in Spain, where five young people claimed to have witnessed three tall, non-human beings and later a 'human' couple on a beach. The article highlights the alleged disinformation campaign by the GEIFO (Spanish UFO Research Group) to explain away the event as divers and a cable-laying boat, presenting contradictions in their official statements and emphasizing the unusual footprints found on the beach.

Ancient Art and Extraterrestrial Hypotheses

A significant section of the magazine focuses on the Visoki Decani monastery in Kosovo and its medieval frescoes. Specifically, a painting of the crucifixion of Christ is analyzed for its depiction of two unusual objects in the sky, which some interpret as ancient alien spacecraft, reminiscent of the 'paleovisits' hypothesis. The article discusses the debate between interpreting these as 'runabouts' or as symbolic representations of the Sun and Moon, referencing experts like James Hall. It traces the history of this interpretation, from a 1964 photograph to its popularization in the 1967 article 'Des Visiteurs du Cosmos'.

Mesopotamian Mythology and Celestial Deities

The magazine explores the Semitic triad of Mesopotamian mythology, comprising the gods Sin (Moon), Shamash (Sun), and Ishtar (Venus). These deities were associated with celestial phenomena and were often represented by symbols such as a crescent moon, a solar disk, and an eight-pointed star, respectively. These symbols are discussed in the context of ancient 'kudurrus' (boundary stones) where they were used to invoke divine witnesses for legal agreements.

New Species and Scientific Discoveries

In the 'Criptozoología' section, the magazine reports on the discovery of new species, highlighting the 'Kollasmosoma sentum', a small parasitic wasp found in Madrid, Spain. This species was recognized by the International Institute for the Exploration of Species (IISE) as one of the ten most singular or rare species discovered in 2011. The article details the discovery and the wasp's parasitic behavior towards ants.

Interview with Marcelo Martorelli

The issue features an interview with Marcelo Martorelli, an investigator of 'Hollow Earth' theories. Martorelli discusses his research, his relationship with figures like Angel Acoglanis, and the ERKS organization. The interview also touches upon the death of Steve Curry and Martorelli's book 'Contacto Físico Establecido'.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are the unexplained, the mysterious, and the possibility of extraterrestrial influence on human history and culture. The magazine presents various accounts of UFO sightings, anomalous phenomena, and ancient artifacts or artworks that are interpreted through the lens of ancient astronaut theories. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry, presenting evidence and theories while acknowledging the controversial nature of the topics discussed and encouraging further investigation. The magazine also highlights the importance of scientific discovery and the preservation of cultural heritage.

This issue of Misterios magazine, titled 'Crónicas Subterráneas' (Subterranean Chronicles), delves into esoteric and paranormal topics, primarily focusing on the concept of Inner Earth and spiritual initiation through an extensive interview with Marcelo Martorelli. The magazine features interviews, personal accounts, and discussions on topics ranging from spiritual awakenings and extraterrestrial contact to historical mysteries and conspiracy theories.

Interview with Marcelo Martorelli

The core of this issue is a multi-part interview with Marcelo Martorelli, who recounts his profound spiritual journey and his deep connection with the concept of Inner Earth. He describes his initiation process, guided by his teacher Maestro Yaco, whom he refers to as the 'Great Mahatma of the West'. Yaco's teachings emphasized inner growth and transformation, encouraging Martorelli to 'grow without having any notion of your own growth'.

Martorelli details his early life experiences and how they led him to document his path, which he describes as a conscious process of inner transformation. He highlights the influence of Maestro Yaco, who provided him with a unique perspective on reality and guided him towards self-discovery. The passing of both Maestro Yaco and Martorelli's father marked a significant turning point, prompting a deep retrospective of his life and the realization of the magnitude of his spiritual journey.

The ERKS Enclave and Ángel Acoglanis

Martorelli recounts his introduction to Ángel Cristo Acoglanis, a key figure in the history of ERKS, a subterranean enclave. Acoglanis, a personal friend of Maestro Yaco, facilitated an initial meeting in 1985. This led to further encounters at 'Los Terrones' in Capilla del Monte, Córdoba, Argentina, where discussions about establishing contact with 'Them' (ELLOS) took place. Acoglanis eventually suggested Yaco return with two disciples, leading to the preparation of Martorelli and two others for contact.

Martorelli emphasizes that the 'Diarios de ERKS' are real and were personally handed to him by Ángel Acoglanis. He confirms Acoglanis's identity as 'Saruma', suggesting a singular, unified entity rather than two different people. He stresses that finding ERKS requires looking within oneself first, before it can be found physically.

Expedition to the Hollow Earth and the Death of Steve Currey

A significant portion of the interview is dedicated to Martorelli's involvement in an expedition to the Hollow Earth, led by the American explorer Steve Currey. Martorelli describes receiving an unexpected invitation from Currey, which he considered the realization of his greatest dream. He details the preparation process, including weekly meetings and the sharing of 'Diarios de ERKS'.

However, the expedition was tragically cut short by the sudden death of Steve Currey due to aggressive brain tumors. Martorelli expresses his shock and suspicion regarding the rapid onset of Currey's illness, suggesting it might have been more than a natural occurrence, especially given the potential implications of their research.

He explains his role in the expedition as a 'Contactado' and 'Spiritual Trainer'. The expedition was initially planned for June 26, 2007, aboard the icebreaker Yamal. Despite Currey's death, the expedition was intended to continue under new leadership, though it faced repeated postponements.

Martorelli shares his personal reflections on Currey's death, noting the strangeness of his rapid decline and the potential for sabotage of the expedition's goals. He also mentions his book 'El Llamado Planetario II', which details his experiences and the preparation for the expedition.

The Tunnel in Peru

Martorelli recounts a pivotal experience during a trip to Peru, specifically in the Sacred Valley of the Incas near Quenco. While resting on a mountainside, he discovered a hidden tunnel entrance by accidentally pushing his arm through dense vegetation. This tunnel, approximately one meter wide and high, led into the mountain. Inside, they found a stone-constructed chair and a passage descending further into the earth. This experience solidified his passion for subterranean tunnels and inner earth cities.

Books and Publications

Martorelli discusses his literary work, including 'El Llamado Planetario', published in 2006, which explored his research into the Inner World. He followed this with 'Contacto Físico Establecido' ('Physical Contact Established'), which he describes as more energetic and less idealistic than his first book. He explains the extensive process of writing and revising these books, emphasizing the need for clarity and chronological accuracy to make complex concepts understandable.

He reveals that he is currently working on his third book, 'El Llamado Planetario III', and hints at the return of 'Mike', bringing new challenges and awakenings.

Fundación Paz, Ecología y Arte (PEA)

Martorelli also discusses his involvement with the NGO 'Fundación Paz, Ecología y Arte' (PEA), which he co-founded. The organization is dedicated to promoting a 'culture of peace' based in Latin America, inspired by the work of Nicholas Roerich. PEA's initiatives include distributing the 'Flag of Peace' and fostering education for peace, cooperation, and environmental consciousness. They aim to contribute to a sustainable peace on a global scale by promoting inner transformation and collective action.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently explores themes of mystery, the unexplained, and alternative realities. The 'Crónicas Subterráneas' section, in particular, focuses on hidden worlds, esoteric knowledge, and conspiracy theories. The editorial stance appears to be open to exploring unconventional ideas and personal testimonies related to paranormal phenomena, spiritual development, and hidden histories, encouraging readers to question established narratives and seek deeper truths.

The issue emphasizes the importance of inner work, personal transformation, and conscious evolution as pathways to understanding deeper realities and contributing to a more peaceful world. The recurring motif is that true discovery and connection, whether to Inner Earth or spiritual truths, begins within oneself.
