Rymdkvinnans budskap till jordmänniskorna!

This section presents a message from a space being named "Jenny," conveyed at a UFO meeting in Stockholm. The message emphasizes the importance of love as a guiding thread in life. It criticizes humanity for misusing this principle, engaging in war for profit, torturing others, and destroying the planet's environment for money and power. The message warns that this path leads to destruction and that future generations will suffer. It urges people to learn to love fellow humans and all living things, and to care for the planet, suggesting that a simpler way of life is possible.

Jordmänniskans katastrofala situation

This extensive article, spanning pages 4-13, discusses the dire situation facing humanity, attributing it to intellectual, ethical, and social underdevelopment, exacerbated by the nuclear age. Key problems identified include:

• Overpopulation: According to Semjase's information to Eduard Meier, there are at least four billion too many people on Earth, with the population continuing to grow. This makes it impossible to provide food for everyone, and even if starvation is prevented, it leads to further births.
• Poverty and Lack of Opportunity: Many children are born into poverty with no prospects for a dignified life, often dying from starvation or disease. They lack adequate housing and education. Millions of unwanted children in South America live on the streets, resorting to theft and robbery, and often falling victim to right-wing death squads.
• Religious Obstruction: The Catholic Church's stance against birth control is criticized, with the article suggesting it aims to increase the number of souls under its dominion. It references Professor Gunnar Heinsohn, who posited that the Inquisition's persecution of witches was partly to eliminate their knowledge of contraception.
• Historical Context: The article links the post-plague population decline in Europe to the difficulty feudal lords had in securing labor, suggesting a historical pattern of controlling populations. It criticizes the church for using threats of hellfire to deter people from using birth control methods.
• Call for Action: The article advocates for education on birth control and suggests that Swedish foreign aid should be redirected to support voluntary sterilization and provide affordable contraceptives. It also calls for an end to child marriage and a minimum marriage age of 25 in overpopulated countries.
• Critique of Cult Religions: Eduard Meier is cited as identifying "cult religions" like Christianity, Judaism, and Islam as tools for spiritual enslavement and economic exploitation.
• Critique of the Bible: Meier's view is presented that the Bible contains untruths, fantasy, and contradictions. He criticizes the concept of a single omnipotent creator (Herren, Gud, Jahve) and the biblical accounts of divine intervention, such as the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, and the treatment of neighboring peoples.
• "Immanuel's Teaching": A text discovered in the 1960s, translated from Aramaic, is presented as a challenge to the Gospels. It suggests that Immanuel, not Jesus, was the true prophet, and that the Gospels were falsified by the Christian church. Paul is accused of distorting Immanuel's teachings.
• Critique of Islam: The article describes Mohammed's religion as one of fanaticism and military conquest, emphasizing submission to Allah. It criticizes the Quran for lacking respect for dissenters and for promoting punishment and fear of hell. Slavery is accepted, and women are depicted as oppressed.
• Theocratic Regimes: The regime in Iran under Ayatollah Khomeini is cited as an example of how religious leaders can manipulate populations, leading to increased oppression and conflict.
• Call for Arms Embargo: The article suggests that Western countries should refuse arms shipments and aid to oppressive regimes, advocating for respect for human and democratic rights globally.
• Economic Inequality: Even in democratic countries, wealth and power are unevenly distributed. The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few financial magnates leads to an oligarchy controlling mass media, hindering the public's access to balanced information needed for informed voting.
• Information Oligopoly: The article equates the information monopolies of private financial empires with those in one-party states, questioning how public opinion can be shaped to challenge billionaire privileges.
• Societal Problems: The pursuit of wealth creates selfishness, lack of consideration for others, corruption, criminal economic manipulation, and organized crime. Economic downturns caused by stock market speculation lead to unemployment, drug abuse, and increased crime, straining societal resources.
• Utopian Vision: The need for a well-thought-out utopian vision for society is stressed. The article suggests that state ownership of major industries like railways, post, and telecommunications could be beneficial, rather than selling them to speculators. It also criticizes the urban sprawl of large cities, advocating for well-planned, reasonably sized cities.
• Environmental Destruction: The article condemns environmental damage from both military and civilian activities, particularly nuclear weapons testing. It links nuclear explosions to ozone layer depletion and earthquakes. The exploitation of oil, natural gas, and minerals is also criticized, as is the dumping of nuclear waste and nerve gas into oceans, deforestation, and desertification.
• Call for UN Action: The UN is urged to lead the fight against environmental destruction, using pressure tactics against non-compliant nations.
• Cultural and Mental Pollution: The article criticizes TV and film for promoting violence and sadism, which negatively impacts viewers, especially youth, and can inspire criminal behavior.
• Military Spending: The massive global spending on military preparations (estimated at $1,000 billion annually) is seen as a misallocation of resources and a constant threat of annihilation.
• Disarmament Proposal: The article references Jenny's suggestion from 1985 to use military budgets for constructive purposes like developing desert areas and building irrigation and purification plants. It argues for nationalizing the arms industry and placing all military forces under UN command. The UN's passive role in disarmament is criticized, and a proposal for member states to reduce military budgets by 5% annually is suggested, with boycotts for non-compliance.
• Spiritual Underdevelopment: The article concludes that many global problems stem from spiritual underdevelopment, a lack of willingness to cooperate, and a failure to recognize the equal rights of others.

Immanuels historia

This section, spanning pages 14-21, details the history of Immanuel, presented as a prophet of extraterrestrial origin. According to Eduard Meier, a discovery in 1963 near Jerusalem of Aramaic scrolls, titled "Immanuel's Teaching," challenges the authenticity of the Bible's Gospels.

• Immanuel vs. Jesus: The scrolls reportedly reveal that Immanuel, not Jesus, was the true prophet. His teachings were allegedly distorted and incomplete in the four Gospels approved by the Church. The name Jesus is described as a later invention.
• Judas Iscariot: The narrative claims that Judas Iscariot was not the traitor but a faithful disciple and author of the discovered scripture. The traitor was actually Juda Ihariot, son of a Pharisee, who later repented and hanged himself.
• Extraterrestrial Connections: The text highlights numerous references to extraterrestrial involvement. Immanuel's mother, Mary, conceived him naturally through the "sky son" Gabriel, acting on behalf of a higher entity referred to as "God, the lord of the sky sons and legislator for mankind on Earth."
• The Nature of God: This "God" is described as a human-like, elevated being. He and his followers are said to have come from the depths of the universe. They are credited with impregnating Earth women, leading to the creation of human life. The ultimate authority is "the omnipotence of Creation."
• Joseph's Role: Joseph, Mary's intended husband, was visited by a "watch angel" (a lower-ranking extraterrestrial) sent by Gabriel. He was instructed to marry Mary and acknowledge Immanuel as his son, as desired by God.
• The Wise Men: The story of the wise men is retold, stating they saw a bright light in the sky and heard a voice guiding them to the newborn "Wisdom King." They were warned by Herod Antipas and later by the voice from the light to avoid him and take another route home.
• Flight to Egypt: Joseph received a warning from Gabriel and fled to Egypt with Mary and the infant Immanuel, guided by a descending light. After Herod's threat subsided, Gabriel returned them to Nazareth.
• Immanuel's Baptism and Ascension: After being baptized by John the Baptist in the Jordan River, Immanuel heard a voice from a "metallic light" declaring him God's beloved son and the future king of truth. He then entered the metallic light and ascended to the heavens.
• Interstellar Teachings: Immanuel spent 40 days in an unknown location receiving instruction from "wise, holy men" and "sky sons." He was then taken to a "great mother ship" where he met two tall men from the Pleiades. They told him his wisdom would benefit humanity but the path would be long and difficult due to ignorance and superstition.
• Prophecy of Future Conflict: Immanuel prophesied that centuries would pass before his teachings were understood. He predicted a future era of "sky-storming machines" (advanced technology) that would lead to widespread conflict, the use of deadly gases, and the potential extinction of humanity if the "Mighty of the Peoples" did not intervene.
• The Transformation of Saulus to Paul: Immanuel foresaw that Saulus, who persecuted him and his followers, would undergo a change of heart, become Paul, and preach a new doctrine. However, Immanuel predicted Paul would misunderstand his teachings, leading to the creation of a false cult and bloodshed, with Immanuel being called "Jesus Christ" (the Anointed One) due to this misunderstanding.
• Trial and Accusations: The account of Immanuel's trial differs from the Gospel of Matthew. He was accused of claiming to be conceived by Gabriel and that God was not the same as Creation. Immanuel confirmed these statements, explaining that "God and his sky sons are other human races from the depths of the universe in their metallic machines," and that "Creation is immeasurably higher than them."
• Immanuel's Prediction of Future Persecution: After being beaten and mocked, Immanuel prophesied that those who enslaved and wronged others would eventually be struck down and scorned. He predicted the rise of a new man and a new cult (referencing Mohammed) that would bring terror and death.
• Crucifixion and Near-Death: Immanuel was crucified between two murderers. After about three hours, he fell into a semi-conscious state. His mother, Mary Magdalene, and Josef of Arimathaea were present. Josef obtained permission from Pontius Pilate to bury Immanuel in his own rock tomb.
• Resurrection and Departure: Immanuel was cared for in the tomb for three days. A "radiant light" descended, and a "watch angel" emerged, blinding the Roman soldiers with a flash of lightning. The angel rolled away the stone and informed the women that Immanuel had risen and was no longer in the tomb. He then returned to the light.
• Post-Resurrection Appearances and Warning: Immanuel appeared to his disciples in Galilee, warning them against falsifying his teachings. He then entered a metallic light and departed. The scripture states he lived in Damascus for two years, then sent messengers to find his brother Thomas and disciple Judas Iskariot.
• Disciples' Betrayal: Immanuel's disciples had falsified his teachings, calling him the Son of God and equating him with Creation. The high priest and elders persecuted his followers, stoning them. Saulus was a major enemy, threatening Immanuel's followers and writing letters to synagogues to have believers brought to Jerusalem.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently presents a critical view of established religions, particularly Christianity, and advocates for a spiritual and ethical awakening among humanity. There is a strong emphasis on the influence of extraterrestrial beings (referred to as "sky sons" or "space beings") who are portrayed as benevolent guides attempting to warn humanity about its destructive path. The articles critique societal ills such as overpopulation, environmental degradation, war, greed, and religious dogma. The editorial stance appears to be one of promoting alternative spiritual and historical perspectives, often challenging mainstream religious and scientific narratives, and highlighting the potential for positive change through a greater understanding of universal love and cosmic consciousness. The magazine also seems to align with the teachings of figures like Eduard Meier and the messages purportedly received from extraterrestrial entities like Semjase and Jenny.

This issue of UFO - KONTAKT, published by Sveriges UFO-förbund in 1980, focuses on the theme of "Images of Longing" (LÄNGTANS AVBILDER) and explores various aspects of UFO phenomena, alleged cover-ups, and spiritual interpretations.

The Story of Immanuel

The issue begins with a narrative detailing the life of a figure named Immanuel. It recounts an event where Immanuel, using a display of fireworks, confronts Saulus near Damascus. Saulus, who believed Immanuel was dead, is blinded by the light and hears Immanuel's voice. Immanuel instructs Saulus to go to Damascus to learn how to live. Saulus, still disoriented, is led into the city and taught by one of Immanuel's disciples. The narrative continues, stating that Immanuel later traveled to India, married at 45, had children in Kashmir, and died at approximately 115 years old, buried in Srinagar. His son, Josef, reportedly hid his writings, which were discovered in 1963 with the help of extraterrestrials.

The issue also references a German translation of Judas Iskariot's writings about Immanuel, published by Eduard Meier, who added an epilogue detailing Immanuel's history. The sensational nature of this information is highlighted, suggesting it could shake the foundations of Christianity. The magazine notes that this information is newly published in a small edition and has not yet gained media attention.

Longing and UFOs

An article titled "LÄNGTANS AVBILDER" (Images of Longing) draws a parallel between an African tribe building a model airplane to express their longing for a 'great bird' to return, and humanity's longing for something deeper, symbolized by UFOs. The author suggests that while the African tribe actively created an image of their desire, modern society, despite technological advancements, struggles to express its deepest longings. A Swedish advertising campaign for Gevalia coffee, featuring a flying saucer landing in a garden, is presented as a superficial modern equivalent.

The article criticizes Hollywood's portrayal of UFOs in films like "Star Wars" and "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," arguing that these productions offer disinformation and superficial images that fail to satisfy a deeper need. It claims that filmmakers follow the official government line, denying the existence of tangible evidence for UFOs, and instead present "infantile fantasies" with costumed actors and monstrous aliens.

UFO Cover-ups in East and West

Another section, "MÖRKLÄGGNING I ÖST SOM I VÄST" (Cover-up in East as in West), discusses the alleged secrecy surrounding UFO issues. It states that this secrecy is not limited to the USA but occurs globally, including in the Soviet Union, where the KGB's Third Department has allegedly played a significant role in collecting and concealing UFO-related material. The article mentions an interview with UFO researcher Nikolaj Lebedev from St. Petersburg, who claims that media reporting has been limited and UFO groups have been infiltrated by KGB agents. Lebedev believes it is criminal to withhold information about extraterrestrial civilizations from the public and that individuals who break secrecy should do so openly and quickly.

Sveriges UFO-förbund

The magazine introduces Sveriges UFO-förbund (SUFO) as a national organization dedicated to informing the public about evidence of higher extraterrestrial civilizations visiting Earth. SUFO emphasizes stories from contact persons who report being taken aboard alien craft and receiving warnings about the dangers of nuclear weapons. The organization also promotes a philosophy of goodwill, understanding, and respect for fellow humans, suggesting this is key to human evolution and creating a paradise on Earth. Furthermore, SUFO aims to inform about evidence of extraterrestrial presence in Earth's past, referencing ancient myths of 'gods' arriving in shining craft and monumental structures like the Egyptian pyramids as potential evidence of advanced extraterrestrial technology.

Editorial Stance and Recurring Themes

This issue reflects a strong belief in the existence of extraterrestrial intelligence and a critical stance towards official narratives and media portrayals of UFOs. There is a recurring theme of hidden knowledge and the importance of uncovering and disseminating this information to the public. The magazine promotes a spiritual or philosophical interpretation of UFO phenomena, linking it to deeper human longings and a call for greater understanding and respect among people. The warnings about nuclear proliferation and the potential for a "great cultural-religious deception" suggest an underlying concern for humanity's future. The publication itself, UFO-KONTAKT, serves as a platform for disseminating these alternative views and fostering a community of like-minded individuals.
