UFO Contactee - No 09 - February 1994

Magazine Overview

This issue of "UFO contactee," a GAP-Japan Newsletter International Edition (No. 9, February 1994), focuses on a significant UFO sighting and revisits the foundational claims of George Adamski. The cover prominently features the headline "A Gigantic Space Ship Appears Over Desert Center, California!" by Hachiro Kubota.

A Gigantic Space Ship Appears Over Desert Center, California!

The lead article by Hachiro Kubota recounts an event on January 27, 1992, where members of the 5th GAP-Japan Desert Center Investigation Committee (D.C.I.C.) witnessed a gigantic cigar-shaped object in the sky over Desert Center, California. This sighting occurred during an investigative tour organized by GAP-Japan, which has been conducting such tours annually since 1988. Desert Center is noted as the location where George Adamski famously claimed to have met a Venusian who emerged from a flying saucer.

Kubota provides a summary of Adamski's 1952 encounter, detailing how Adamski, accompanied by others, drove to a remote area in the Mojave Desert. There, they observed a large cigar-shaped "Mother Ship" and later a flying saucer hovering near two rocky hills. Adamski photographed the saucer with his camera and telescope. He then encountered a man in a strange suit, who communicated with him through gestures and telepathy. This Venusian left behind deep footprints with unique symbols, which were later cast in plaster by Dr. George Williamson and other witnesses. Alice Wells, another witness, made a sketch of the Venusian, which was later used to create a colored portrait.

Adamski-type UFOs Appearing All Over the World

The article addresses skepticism surrounding Adamski's claims, particularly regarding his photographs, which some alleged were fakes using models. However, it presents evidence of similar sightings and photographs from around the world, including a notable instance in Onomichi, Japan, on October 11, 1974, where Kazuhiko Fujimatsu photographed objects identical to Adamski's. Kubota personally interviewed Fujimatsu and confirmed the authenticity of these pictures.

A Strange Arc Carved on a Rocky Hillside

The D.C.I.C.'s investigation in November 1988 led them to discover a large, perfectly carved arc on a rocky hillside, suggesting it might be a trace left by a landing flying saucer.

Found the Contact Spot

The second D.C.I.C. visit in January 1989, comprising members from Japan and the US, aimed to pinpoint Adamski's contact spot. While they found the general area, they initially couldn't locate the specific "saddle" described by Adamski. The article notes that the landscape had changed over the years due to natural erosion and possibly increased visitor activity.

Subsequent investigations, including the 5th D.C.I.C. in January 1992, continued the search. The article details the journey to Desert Center and the methodical search for the saddle. A significant event occurred on January 27, 1992, when five members witnessed a large, white, cylindrical "Mother Ship" flying horizontally. This sighting occurred shortly after Tanaka had sent a telepathic message asking for a sign if they were near the saddle.

The Description Partly Eliminated?

Hachiro Kubota questions Adamski's description of photographing the saucer at a "saddle" half a mile away, then immediately using a Brownie camera. He theorizes that the Brownie, with its fixed 105mm lens, would not have been able to capture an object at that distance clearly, suggesting that Adamski might have photographed two different saddles or that parts of the description were omitted by Adamski or his publisher.

A Gigantic Mother Ship Appeared!

The narrative continues with the 5th D.C.I.C.'s search in January 1992. On January 27th, after a period of meditation and a hunch, Kubota took out his binoculars and witnessed a white, cylindrical object flying horizontally. This object, described as a "mother ship," was seen by five witnesses. Its appearance coincided with Tanaka's telepathic request for a sign. The object disappeared suddenly when another combat plane approached. The witnesses speculated that the increased air traffic might have been related to the UFO's presence.

The Hills changed its outlines?

Kubota discusses how the hills in the Desert Center area have changed over forty years due to wind, rain, and gravity, potentially altering the landscape from Adamski's original photographs. He also considers the impact of thousands of visitors who came to the area after Adamski's book was published.

A Mysterious Phenomenon on the Ocean

On January 29, 1992, while flying from Los Angeles to Japan, the author and other passengers witnessed a tremendously long and straight black thin line on the surface of the ocean, moving as fast as their airplane. This phenomenon, visible for a long time and unnoticed by other passengers, was later suggested by Dr. Makoto Akiyama to be the shadow of a "needle-type" Mother Ship.

Questions & Answers by George Adamski

This section features a Q&A originally published by George Adamski in 1957. Adamski addresses why he does not attend space craft conventions, stating that such events have become a 'prostitution of the truth' and are exploited by those who wish to suppress information about space visitors. He emphasizes that the truth belongs to the world and that conventions should be based on factual information, not astral experiences or wishful thinking.

Adamski also clarifies what constitutes a definite UFO sighting. He distinguishes between night sightings (hovering, soundless lights that pulsate and change color) and daytime sightings (objects seen clearly, executing unusual maneuvers, or traveling at impossible speeds). He warns against carelessly proclaiming every light or flash as a UFO, which can discredit genuine sightings.

Finally, Adamski answers a question about the possibility of Earthlings being taken on vacations to other planets. He believes this will become possible when humanity ceases to express hostility and fear towards space visitors.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are the verification of George Adamski's claims through ongoing investigations and corroborating evidence from other parts of the world, the nature of UFO sightings and encounters, and the importance of respectful inquiry into extraterrestrial phenomena. The editorial stance appears to be one of strong support for Adamski's experiences and a commitment to investigating and validating UFO-related events, while also addressing skepticism and providing guidance on identifying genuine sightings.

Title: UFO contactee (International Edition)
Issue: No.9
Date: February 1994
Publisher: GAP-Japan
Country: Japan
Language: English

This issue of "UFO contactee" provides an in-depth look into the activities and philosophy of GAP-Japan, a prominent UFO research organization in Japan.

GAP-Japan: History and Mission

GAP-Japan was established in 1961 by Hachiro Kubota, who had previously worked with George Adamski. The organization has grown to become the largest UFO research group in Japan, boasting 1,700 members. Its primary mission is to disseminate information and truths related to George Adamski's work and the broader field of Cosmic Philosophy. GAP-Japan operates with a headquarters in Tokyo and seventeen branches across the country.

Seminars and Activities

Monthly seminars are a core activity for GAP-Japan, utilizing Adamski's seminal works, "Science of Life" and "Telepathy-The Cosmic or Universal Language," as primary study materials. Hachiro Kubota, the representative of GAP-Japan, delivers lectures at the head office in Tokyo, explaining key concepts from these texts. Audiotapes and videotapes of these lectures are then distributed to all branches for their members' use. A unique practice during these seminars is the "Telepathy Developing Practice" game, which aims to enhance participants' innate telepathic abilities, such as thought reception and clairvoyance. The organization reports that many members have developed these abilities to a significant degree, with some even having direct contact experiences with "Space People."

GAP-Japan also hosts an annual General Assembly in Tokyo. This event serves as a gathering for members from across Japan, featuring lectures by qualified speakers, including Kubota. The assembly includes question-and-answer sessions, followed by a dinner party.

Publications

The organization publishes a quarterly magazine titled "UFO contactee (Japanese edition)," which functions as its official bulletin. This magazine is distributed to all members and is also available for purchase at major bookstores throughout Japan. Each issue is 52 pages long and features numerous color photographs, covering Adamski's philosophy, methods for developing telepathy, and firsthand accounts of UFO sightings and encounters with extraterrestrial beings. An English edition, "UFO contactee," is published annually.

Literary Contributions

Hachiro Kubota has undertaken the significant task of translating all of George Adamski's writings and speeches into Japanese. These translations have been compiled into a ten-book collection titled "New Adamski's Complete Works," published by Chuo Art Publishing Co. This collection has been well-received by readers as a valuable source of information. Additionally, Chuo Art Publishing has released the Japanese edition of "UFO's and the Complete Evidence from Space," authored by Daniel Ross, the representative of US-GAP. Daniel Ross is slated to be a main speaker at the upcoming GAP-Japan General Assembly in Tokyo, scheduled for October 9, 1994.

Cover and Featured Book

The cover of the magazine prominently displays imagery related to the "1993 GAP-Japan General Assembly," which was held in Tokyo on October 10, 1993. The cover also features a photograph depicting many GAP members looking up at a UFO that reportedly appeared over Asakusa, Tokyo, the day after the assembly. The issue includes a section promoting Daniel Ross's book, "UFOs and the Complete Evidence from Space: The Truth About Venus, Mars, and the Moon." The book asserts the existence of advanced civilizations on celestial bodies within our solar system and claims that NASA has concealed this information. It is available for purchase from Daniel Ross in Concord, California.

Reader Questions and Answers

The magazine addresses several questions from readers concerning UFO phenomena:

Q67: Can radiation from a saucer kill a man?

According to the response, there is no known instance of fatal injuries caused by UFO radiation. The author recounts an experience where proximity to a hovering craft caused temporary paralysis due to its pulsating electromagnetic power, but no permanent harm resulted. The advice given is to follow the directions provided by the crew members, as they always offer careful instructions. Disobeying these instructions could lead to harm. The author emphasizes that the radiation (force field) used for flight is minimized when a craft is close to the ground and a person is invited to approach. Crucially, the response suggests that fear is a more destructive force than radiation and that any reported injuries are likely a result of fear.

Q68: If I were to develop spiritual mediumship, would this help me to meet the space people?

The answer is a definitive "No." The text explains that space people are physical humans, similar to humans on Earth, and do not utilize mediumship. While spiritual mediumship requires years of development and is distinct from the recent surge in interest, telepathy is presented as an innate, universal language. The space people, being physical beings, communicate through telepathy, which is described as an inherent law within all forms.

Publication Details

The magazine is published by GAP-Japan, with Hachiro Kubota serving as the Editor and Publisher. The contact address is 1-12-1-511, Motoisshiki, Edogawa-ku, Tokyo, Japan.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue of "UFO contactee" strongly reflects GAP-Japan's commitment to promoting the teachings of George Adamski and the concept of Cosmic Philosophy. The editorial stance is one of advocating for the reality of UFOs and extraterrestrial contact, emphasizing the importance of telepathy as a means of communication and spiritual development. The magazine appears to be a platform for sharing firsthand accounts, disseminating information about UFO research, and educating readers on these topics. There is a clear distinction made between genuine contact experiences and spiritual phenomena like mediumship, with a focus on the physical nature of the space beings and their use of telepathy. The publication also exhibits a critical view of official narratives, particularly regarding space development, as suggested by the promotion of Daniel Ross's book.
