NM MUFON News - no 30 - 1995 12

Magazine Overview

This issue of NM MUFON NEWS, number 30, compiled on December 16, 1995, is priced at $1.50 and edited by Carolyn Duce-Ashe. The main cover headline announces "THE FORUM FOR NEW SCIENCE," highlighting the International Association for New Science (IANS).

The Forum for New Science Conference

The lead article by Carolyn Duce-Ashe details her experience at the yearly IANS conference, "The Forum For New Science," held on September 13, 1995, at the Fort Collins Marriott. She describes IANS as a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting a new science paradigm that integrates various disciplines and aims to shift science and healthcare. Duce-Ashe presented a talk titled "Quantum Consciousness: Psi, Miracles, the UFO experience and Creativity," which she found well-received. The conference spanned five days and explored the work of leading scientists and thinkers in establishing this new paradigm.

What Is The New Science?

Brian O'Leary, Ph.D., a founder of IANS, physicist, and former Apollo astronaut, defined New Science. It encompasses medicine, psychology, energy, environmental sciences, agriculture, non-physical sciences (including UFOs, NDEs, OBEs, ghosts, crop circles), parapsychology, mysticism, spirituality, biology, and physics, especially quantum physics, and their connection to consciousness and mind/matter interaction. A key concept is "Zero Point Energy," which posits consciousness as a major factor in the creation of matter, suggesting that humans co-create reality. This new paradigm is seen as having the potential to usher in an era of cooperation between science and spirituality for healing.

The Lapis Pig

O'Leary also uses a muppet character named Lapis Pig, designed by Jim Henson's group, to represent the "old paradigm." This character voices arguments of reductionism, determinism, and materialism, serving to highlight the rhetoric that opposes progress and paranormal phenomena.

Miracle in the Void

Duce-Ashe mentions O'Leary's third book, "Miracle in the Void," which chronicles his personal encounter with the new paradigm. The process of understanding this new science is described as "grieving," akin to the stages of grief described by Elizabeth Kubler-Ross. O'Leary believes society is currently in the denial and anger stages, citing events like the Oklahoma City bombing. He suggests that completing this process will lead to a new, enlightened paradigm.

Some Possible Breakthroughs

O'Leary challenged attendees to actively promote the new paradigm. He hinted at potential breakthroughs, including closer collaboration between IANS and The Institute of Noetic Sciences, and a group including Rockefeller working to secure immunity for UFO witnesses from prosecution for violating security oaths.

Other Speakers and Their Messages

The conference featured numerous speakers:

• Michael Grosso, Ph.D.: Spoke on "The Future of Death," emphasizing the mind's ability to transcend the body and the power of imagination to "will" immortality.
• Kurt Donsbach, D.C.: Discussed unconventional cancer cures, noting that cancer cells use fermentation and glucose for energy, suggesting that avoiding sugar can help "starve" them.
• Richard Hoagland: Presented on Mars and Moon anomalies, linking them to the zero point energy concept and hyperdimensional physics. He suggested that structures on Earth, Mars, and the Moon indicate an ancient intelligence at work.
• John Mack, MD: Was honored for his work with abductees. He presented raw footage of interviews with school children in South Africa who witnessed a mass UFO sighting and a Zulu shaman who claimed abduction. Mack stated that "we co-create the phenomenon on some level," supporting the idea of consciousness as integral to paranormal phenomena.
• Michael Lindemann: Spoke about the profound impact of contact with non-human intelligence on the future, suggesting we are in the "endgame" of the UFO coverup. He also touched upon the angelic realm and the potential of artificial intelligence.

Lindemann's quote, "The dumbest question to ask is 'Are UFOs real?' Because your world is falling down around you and those who know are scared. They don't want to be out of a job prematurely!" reflects a critical view of the resistance to new ideas.

Additional Content

• Crop Circle: The editor's choice for the best crop circle of 1995, appearing near Santa Rosa, California, is featured with a photo by Jillanne Garrett.
• Comet Hale-Bopp: An internet post forwarded by Hal Weaver provides preliminary analysis from the Hubble Space Telescope, estimating Comet Hale-Bopp's nucleus to be about 40 km in diameter, suggesting a significant show in 1997.
• From the Editor's Desk: Carolyn Duce-Ashe announces her resignation, along with Dan De Mar and Rebecca Minshall, effective January 1, 1996, due to needing time for other pursuits. They also appeal for help in finding a new meeting location for the Sandia Center.
• From the Producer's Corner: Debby Stark recounts her early morning listening to Art Bell's radio show, which featured an interview with Ed Dames. She reviews previous articles in NM MUFON News concerning Ed Dames, remote viewing, cattle mutilations, and the "hanta virus." She also shares correspondence with Filip Coppens from Belgium, who is researching Dames and Alexander for a magazine article.
• Announcements: Include research expeditions offered by Beyond Boundaries, a free catalog from Greenleaf Publications, and new books from The New Being Project.
• Out of the Blue!: A letter from Ken Ewing of Los Alamos, NM, humorously states his lack of psychic ability, artistic talent, and abduction experiences, identifying himself as a "dull and boring engineer" with an intellectual interest in UFOs.
• Urgent Message: A plea for donations to the Karla Turner Fund to help with her expensive cancer treatment. Turner is an abduction researcher and author.
• Roswell Incident I-Beam Replica: An advertisement for a replica of the Roswell I-Beam, including a display tube and background information.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring theme throughout the conference presentations and the newsletter is the imminent arrival of a "new paradigm" or "new world" where consciousness is recognized as an integral part of all life. There is a palpable sense of excitement, optimism, and hope for a significant shift in consciousness. The editorial stance is one of open inquiry into unconventional science, UFO phenomena, and consciousness studies, encouraging readers to embrace these new ideas and participate in the paradigm shift. The newsletter also demonstrates a commitment to supporting researchers in the field, as evidenced by the urgent message for Karla Turner and the ongoing coverage of figures like Ed Dames and John Mack.
