We are not alone in the Universe

The   author,   while   living   in   Portugal   came   into   contact   with   a   book   describing the   events   in   Fatima,   such   as   the   display   on   the   sky,   which   was   witnessed   by 50,000   people.   As   a   physicist   specialising   in   lasers,   he   came   to   the   conclusion that   these   events   were   neither   of   natural   nor   divine   origins,   but   had   to   be prepared by beings of much higher than human intelligence. Following    this    hypothesis    he    arrived    at    the    logical    conclusion    that    the intelligent   beings   had   intervened   in   human   affairs   from   the   very   beginning   of Homo   Sapiens   on   Earth.   His   book   explains   many   mystifying   events   in   the history   of   mankind   such   as   the   origins   of   the   first   civilisations   and   the   arising of   the   main   religions.   Certain   events   in   the   20th   century   such   as   the   fall   of Nazism and Communism are elucidated using this approach. This   book   tries   to   answer   the   questions:   Why   are   intelligent   beings   interfering in   human   affairs?   What   are   their   objectives?   And   provides   an   answer   to   the timeless question as: “What is the purpose of human life?”

Synopsis

Chapter by Chapter Summary

Chapter   1   is   devoted   to   the   analysis   of   the   events   in   Fatima.   These   events   are briefly   described,   especially   the   display   in   the   sky   which   was   observed   by   tens   of thousands   of   spectators.   The   purpose   of   this   chapter   is   to   convince   the   reader that   the   events   in   Fatima   are   genuine,   very   well   substantiated   and   confirmed   by many independent and reliable witnesses. Chapter   2      explains   how   the   Fatima   apparitions   could   be   prepared   using   the current   state   of   the   art   technologies.   The   purpose   of   this   chapter   is   not   to      prove that    the    apparitions    were    prepared    in    the    suggested    way,    but    that    could    be carried out  using current techniques. Chapter   3   proposes   how   the   display   on   the   sky   could   be   arranged.   The   detail analysis   of   the   witnesses’   statements   confirms   that   images   could   be   generated using lasers. Chapter   4.   The   uniqueness   of   the   Fatima   events   is   discussed   by   showing   that they   were   predicted      in   the   Portuguese   press   2   months   in   advance   and   a   day before    the    apparitions.    The    display    on    the    sky    was    predicted    3    months    in advance.   The   importance   of   predictions   on   the   authenticity   of   these   events   is analysed. Chapter    5.    To    show    that    the    Fatima    apparitions    differ    from    other    known apparitions,   events   which   took   place   in   La   Salette,   Lourdes   and   Medjugorje      are analysed. Chapter   6.   In   this   chapter   is   included   a   critical   analysis   of   the   UFO   phenomena, because   a   recently   published   book   suggests   that   in   many   respects   the   Fatima events   resemble   observations   of   Unidentified   Flying   Objects.   In   order   to   evaluate this    hypothesis,    there    are    discussed    a    few    of    the    most    typical    and    best substantiated UFO observations which were recorded during the last 70 years. Chapter    7    deals    with    the    question    “Who    was    responsible    for    the    events    in Fatima?”. Analysis   shows   that   they   could   be   neither   of   natural   nor   divine   origins. It   is   proposed   that   the   apparitions   in   Fatima   could   be   organised   by   intelligent extraterrestrial beings. Chapter   8.   Issues   associated   with   the   searches   in   the   universe   for   extraterrestrial civilizations   are   briefly   discussed   because   they   are   relevant   to   my   hypothesis.   It is    shown    that    the    notion    of    the    existence    of    extraterrestrial    civilizations    is supported by the scientific world. Chapter   9.   The   organisation   of   the   events   in   Fatima   from   the   point   of   view   of   the modern   project   management   is   presented.   It   shows   that   there   were   used   current marketing techniques. Chapter   10.   The   purpose   of   the   Fatima   events      is   analysed   and   it   is   shown   that they were necessary to help Portuguese to preserve their traditional values. Chapter   11.   The   principles   of   the   intelligent   beings   intervention   are   discussed and    its    limitations    are    described.        The    objectives    of    such    interventions    are outlined.

Chapter   14.   The   legacy   of   the   Sumerian   and   Egyptian   civilizations   is   discussed and    shown,    that    both    these    civilizations    are    not    appreciated    by    the    present historians.   The   link   between   the   Greek   discoveries   and   the   Egyptian      knowledge is   established,   and   the   importance   of   the   Alexandria   as   the   original   source   of   the Greek achievements is mentioned. Chapter   15.   In   this   chapter   are   expounded      existing   hypothesis   of   the   origins   of the   first   civilizations.   The   political   correctness   of   the   academic   theories   is   pointed up. Chapter   16.   The   genesis   of   the   first   civilizations   is   discussed,   which   is   the   most enigmatic   and   inexplicable   event   in   the   history   of   humanity.   The   presented   novel hypothesis   of   the   origins   of   the   first   civilizations   is   based   on   archaeological, linguistic    and    genetic    research    findings.    Is    proposed        the    existence    of    the protocivilization   which   preceded   the   first   civilizations   on   earth.      The   spread   of civilization on the Euro-Asian continent is outlined. Chapter   17   is   concerned   with   a   special   type   of   events,   viz.   coming   into   existence of   main   religions,   such   as   Zoroastrianism,   Judaism,   Buddhism,   Christianity   and Islam.   There   are   presented      local   social   conditions   and   beliefs   existing   before   the formation   of   religions.   It   is   shown   that   religion   was   an   essential   step   in   the development   of   the   humanitarian   values   and   the   advancement   of   mankind.   The role of religion in controlling the human behaviour is discussed Chapter   18.   Zoroastrianism   is   shown   as   the   first   religion   effectively   controling behaviour   of   people.   The   principles   of   the   Zoroastrian   religion   are   summarized and its connections with all main religions are emphasised. Chapter   19.   Hinduism,   the   precursor   of   Buddhism      in   India   is   described   and   its system    of    casts    is    critically    evaluated.    Buddhism    is    presented    as    the    most revolutionary and advanced philosophy of life. Chapter    20.    Connections    between    Judaism    and    the    Sumerian    and    Egyptian cyvilizations are presented. The role of Moses is expounded.

Chapter   23.   The   mysterious   decision   of      the   quitting   by   the   Germans,   at   the beginning   of   the   Second   World   War,      of   the   development   of   the   atom   bomb   is described.   A   proposed      hypothesis,   based   on   the   new   disclosed   materials,   is explaining its origins. Chapter   24.   The   collapse   of   communism   in   the   Soviet   Union   belongs   to   the   great mysteries   of   the   20th   century.   Even   Gorbachev,   who   presided   over   the   collapse   of the   Soviet   Union,   is   not   able   to   explain   it   in   a   convincing   way.   In   this   chapter   a new   interpretation   of   the   extraordinary   career   of   this   politician   is   provided,   and the   unusual   circumstances   of   his   rise   to   power   and   his   activities   as   the   first secretary   of   the   Communist   Party   are   explained.   A   new   hypothesis   explaining these events is presented.
