THE UFO OCCUPANTS: TRAPPED IN AN INFINITE LOOP

Many UFO researchers have been so fascinated by the phenomenon that most of the more important details offered by the paradigm have gone unnoticed.
Very rarely have I read profound reflections on the strange behaviors shown by the occupants of the flying saucers that demonstrate that the paradigm is much more complex than the extraterrestrial hypothesis claims. Since the late 1940s, witnesses have described numerous disconcerting behaviors in our so-called space visitors. UFO crew members have been scary, curious, funny, evasive, talkative, violent, indifferent, rude, generous, terrifying and even absurd.
I believe few researchers have questioned how it is possible that alleged aliens can repeat over and over again such a variety of behaviors in their landings as if in each case these actions were restarted again, since they are never developed but simply outlined. Let me explain.
We have dozens of incidents where UFO occupants are frightened by the human presence, but in the same way we have the same amount of reports that tell us about entities that want to come into contact with human beings in a friendly way. And with this same premise we can exchange all the behaviors, from the violent to the curious among all the occupants.
And the right question would be, why do we find this diversity of behavior repeating itself, as if trapped in an infinite loop, in entities, beings, creatures and humanoids of different and similar aspect?
There is no clear description that shows or points unequivocally that a certain type of UFO occupant has a certain or defined behavior. On the contrary, the occupants of UFOs may show, in a random way, as if it were a roulette wheel, since the aspect of the occupants really does not influence at all their action or behavior towards the witnesses.
Enthusiasts of the extraterrestrial hypothesis would argue that the answer to all these questions is very simple; we are facing different civilizations that behave differently towards human beings, but, as I have indicated, the incidents point out that any type of UFO occupant can behave very differently according to the occasion or rather according to the witness.
But for our study the most interesting thing is to decipher why a presumed extraterrestrial would show himself surprised in the presence of a witness after landing hundreds of times?
Why does he repeat his amazement in the presence of a human being in the surroundings of a UFO? And similarly, how many times would he need to repair his flying saucer in front of a witness? How many ground samples does he need to collect? How many glasses of water does he need to drink to quench his thirst? How many times would these "scientific" aliens need to perform a medical exam on a human? Why would a suspected alien stay static at the side of a road while the witness drives by? Why do all these actions repeat themselves over and over again? Why haven't the occupants of UFOs evolved over time in their behavior and relationship to humans, only repeating certain behavioral patterns? Why do the occupants after hundreds, perhaps thousands of landings, keep repeating these same behavioral-like mantras?
We have not observed a substantial difference in content between the reports of the 1950s and those collected in the 1990s, as if the narrative content of these reports were stagnant, or developed only on certain cultural and social patterns; even abductions are repetitive and reiterative using the same simple concepts, whether in the bedroom or any other location.
The reiteration of all these actions and behaviors would indicate, in my view, that the UFO paradigm, whatever its origin, is manifesting itself in our environment using psychic information extracted from the unconscious of the witnesses. And that probably this interaction between the phenomenon and the witnesses is what determines (chooses) the presence of a certain behavior on the part of the beings who crew the UFOs.
It must be made clear, and this is very important, that all the behaviors performed by these beings are perfectly recognizable by the witnesses, since even the occupants of the flying saucers, gesticulate with their hands and faces in the same way we do, showing surprise, anger, curiosity, joy, sadness, interest, et cetera. How is this possible?
This may be due to three basic possibilities:

1.  Extraterrestrials use an identical gesticulation to ours on their home planets.
2. The extraterrestrials have learned our gesticulation.
3. The phenomenon is using human resources in its manifestations to express itself in a certain way.

 

If we had to make some kind of comparison with something known to us, without a doubt, we would compare the beings in close encounters with UFOs with the nebulous characters that appear in our dreams who transfer some type of message.
The UFO crew seems to be involved in a kind of "dramatization" of human concepts incorporated into a supposedly extraterrestrial setting. 
Therefore, it is clear that the phenomenon that is manifesting itself to us is using human resources, both visually and narratively, to present itself to our eyes as visitors from outer space, when what we are probably witnessing is a gigantic psychic architecture that is created at the very moment that contact is made, the connection between the phenomenon and the witnesses.
And by producing an anomalous manifestation where creativity and spontaneity take precedence over many other factors, it is very likely that the incidents will restart under the same plotline – alien encounters, as most witnesses, while interacting with the phenomenon individually and privately, are inclined by the cultural milieu to seeing such encounters as a kind of extraterrestrial interaction.
The personal psyche of the individuals will determine, by different circumstances and conditionings, that the occupants of the UFOs will be elusive, curious, dialogical, violent or frightening because of a psychic mechanism that is similar to the one that produces the apparently independent and unique behaviors of the characters of our dreams. It is a form of involuntary interaction that takes place at the same moment that the encounter with something unknown is experienced.
There is nothing more behind these behaviors than a reiteration of the same patterns of behavior, over again and again, attributable to human participation in the elaboration, in an unconscious way, of the phenomenology that they are witnessing and which has been established as a scenario that is a meme in human society.
The scene is presented before the eyes of the witnesses as an immersive psychic/physical projection that is practically indistinguishable from the reality that surrounds it. But after the conclusion of the UFO encounter, nothing of the experience remains in this or any other universe, since the experiences have an expiration date the very moment they begin.

ARE UFOS A COGNITIVE PARADIGM WHOSE PHYSICAL REALITY IS ONLY THE PRODUCT OF AN EPIPHENOMENON?

For decades, dozens of researchers have believed that the UFO phenomenon is hidden behind an great camouflage to deceive and manipulate witnesses for purposes we do not understand. It did so centuries ago with the manifestations of fairies, goblins, supernatural creatures and Marian apparitions, and in the middle of the 20th century it managed to mimic the label of extraterrestrial visitors. But, are we before an intelligent phenomenon that perfectly chooses its role to present itself to humans? Or, on the contrary, are we before a disconcerting cognitive paradigm that evidently shows itself with socio-cultural "disguises" present in its time of action?
That all the apparitions of strange entities that throughout time have interacted with the human being have been so reticent and "lying" in their communications, and have offered so little evidence of their existence, is a very interesting indication, and to be taken into account, that all these unusual manifestations may have the same and unique origin and above all a direct incidence on the psyche of the witnesses, which would indicate that the paradigm does not exist independently of the witnesses, at least in the final result of the manifestation that appears before our eyes. Therefore, we should first distinguish 1.- The Phenomenon (the origin) from 2.- The Manifestation (the incidents), which are probably two very different things, as can be a painter from his
pictorial artwork.
That the content of all these manifestations has such a human background (perfectly recognizable), both visually and narratively, is another key that indicates the covert participation of the witness's psyche in the shaping of the experiences, helping to elaborate them in an unconscious way. Furthermore, the fact that it is so difficult to document the existence of these phenomena is very possible that it is due to their ambiguous dual existence, between the psychic world and the physical world, which is why it would be complicated to obtain much evidence of their existence, even though their presence seems totally "real" and unquestionable in our environment. But this does not mean that the paradigm cannot mediate in our reality in a palpable way and cause all kinds of physical effects, but simply that it does so in a different way from what we know, even though its results are practically the same as those produced by an ordinary real event. Perhaps that is one of the keys to understanding the UFO paradigm. Are UFOs a phenomenon whose origin escapes the conventional limits of our cognitive dimension? I do not mean an interdimensional origin as defended and conceived by many researchers for years, but the UFO phenomenon comes from unknown areas that can be accessed by our mind in certain states of consciousness, regardless of whether what is manifested in this exploration of a new "reality" can be made momentarily visible and tangible in our dimension. And it is because of the participation of our psyche that the content of all encounters with beings and entities have enormous human cultural implications and extremely absurd and chaotic aspects, such as those offered by the universe of dreams or, for example, even mental disorders and feverish states. But this does not mean that UFOs are something strictly mental (understood as something unreal or illusory), quite the contrary, but it is very likely that their nature can be closer to the "matter" that makes up our dreams than to a sheet of metal or screws. This does not detract from the mystery, nor the strangeness of the paradigm, it only directs the attention towards other aspects that are more unknown and considered unimportant until now. We have always thought that the material, the tangible, the measurable, the quantifiable, only that which we can put in a laboratory test tube or touch, is what is authentically real and unquestionable.
But perhaps there is another way of exploring the universe that is far removed from the scientific methodology that we have chosen as the only suitable tool for decoding everything around us. The existence of UFOs and other similar anomalies is very interesting evidence that shows that the human psyche is not a simple biological reflection of our brain, but can access much more information from the universe than the sensory organs transmit through the known pathways. In this way, it is capable of interacting with an apparently intelligent cognitive phenomenon, which is presented to us through a highly flexible "scenography" due to our involvement, and which is capable, in turn, of activating latent faculties of our psyche. A manifestation that moves in that psychic/physical duality that makes it so complex, with our methodology, to achieve some kind of response. Only changing our way of seeing the phenomenon will help us to understand it. But taking into account that probably its physical facet, very important for some of us, it can be is only a simple epiphenomenon, that is, a mere consequence of its interaction with our psyche in our environment and not an intrinsic characteristic of the phenomenon itself.  Since UFOs, in short, would be portions in formation of a new reality "inserted" within another established reality.

UFOS: THE PARADOX OF CLOSENESS

One of the keys to understanding the UFO paradigm would be to decipher whether UFO sightings (strictly unidentified flying objects in the sky) are related to close encounters with UFOs (either landings or closer more encounters).
Although this may seem obvious, with no room for doubt, for some scholars it is not so clear that all the UFO manifestations described in hundreds of reports are due to the same and unique phenomenon. The differences and discrepancies between the two facets of UFOs seem irreconcilable and antagonistic.
While the UFOs in the distance behave in a more or less uniform, with an acceptable index of strangeness for the parameters of the premise of the extraterrestrial hypothesis, in the proximity the phenomenon is shown in a chaotic and disorderly way and even in a crazy way which makes the paradigm acquire another facet, since it presents a very high degree of strangeness. So it may be that both phenomena are not the same, although, on the other hand, and in counterpoint to these aspects, all the data suggest that they should be.
Nearby UFOs acquire unpredictable behaviour and their appearance is highly malleable and open to infinite variants, so many that it is impossible to establish any classification. To further difficulty, the variability of the phenomenon, at least in its visual aspect, seems to be clearly related to the socio-cultural aspect, so its field of action is almost infinite.
Adding that the behaviour, conversation and intellect of the UFO occupants are at the antipodes of what we would consider a gesture or behaviour of an advanced civilization (and I do not mean behaviours that we do not understand by our little intellectual evolution, I mean that witness descriptions are absurd and devoid of any logic).
Close encounters with UFOs seem to be experiences targeted at certain witnesses and move away from arbitrariness. Moreover, there are many signs that the human psyche is in some way in contact with the manifested phenomenon. Witnesses are clear that the UFO phenomenon establishes some kind of mental connection with them.  Therefore, the UFO sightings far from being an aseptic apparition of an extraterrestrial spacecraft, as seems to be pointed out in distant sightings, in the closest encounters we find a mess where the human psyche seems to interfere with the observed content.
Whether all this is motivated by a high technology, or by an unknown psychic procedure (as I believe, aided by an exogenous factor) we should completely rethink our approach to the UFO phenomenon. Statistics on time of observation, geographic patterns, physical trace studies, humanoid typologies, etc. have proven ineffective in dealing with the ultimate nature of UFOs. Probably our Cartesian way of approaching the problems and mysteries of our environment has prevented us from going any further (Field investigations leading to case documentation and the measurement or retrieval of physical evidence; Laboratory analysis of physical evidence; The systematic compilation of data (descriptive and physical) to look for patterns and so extract significant facts; The analysis of compilations of data (descriptive and physical) to look for patterns and so extract significant facts...).
Only by understanding that we are facing a paradigm that is closely related to the human psyche, will we begin to decipher the enigma. Although close encounters with UFOs are global manifestations, which can be found in different parts of the world, their decoding has to be individual and taking into account the participation of witnesses, who can no longer be considered as mere observers (independent chroniclers) but as essential parts of this fascinating cognitive enigma that throughout history has assumed different roles, imbued precisely by its inexcusable complicity with humankind.

UFOS: A COGNITIVE PARADIGM THAT IS RESTARTED CONTINUALLY

As we analyze the close encounters with UFOs we will realize that they are not individual episodes of the one same story that we are trying to reconstruct little by little. In other words, we are not compiling different testimonies that describe the multiple landings of an extraterrestrial civilization coming to our planet for scientific purposes.
Leaving aside the fascination and enthusiasm produced by the study of UFOs, we will understand that we are witnessing a continuous restart of the same ideographic skeleton/archaeotype (extraterrestrial visitation) to which each witness contributes by providing new narrative and aesthetic elements that are the product of the unconscious participating in the elaboration of these experiences in conjunction with an external agent. Otherwise the great mutability of the phenomenon and the incoherence of many of its actions could not be explained.
And in all these years of study the UFO occupants have not taken a step forward, neither to show themselves publicly, nor to inform witnesses of their true purposes or to give any proof of their presence on Earth. The paradigm is so elusive and volatile, despite its multiple manifestations, that it seems to be orchestrated into a reality different from ours from which it is impossible to obtain any kind of proof. Therefore, we must understand that UFOs operate outside our usual spatio-temporal frame of reference.
But if, on the contrary, we are exposed to a continuous, infinite and disconcerting unknown creative psychic process, which acts as a kind of loop, it is quite possible that we can understand why the paradigm has behaved the way it has, because we attend every close encounter as a new, content restart of UFO incidents, as if each story could unfold freely and without control, without there being anything pre-determined by the paradigm before the experience begins.
What it offers us are multiple chaotic incidents, absurd and showing infinite variants, with numerous witnesses participating in its elaboration. Human participation allows many UFO experiences to contain multiple cultural components of our society inserted in their scenography, both aesthetically and narratively. Therefore, the entities and creatures associated with the UFO phenomenon would only be, in a certain way, "psychic" creations that would behave, seemingly, as "living" and "independent" beings.
But their actions and communications are greatly influenced by the participation of witnesses. Yet we are not circumscribing the whole UFO affair to an ephemeral mental universe. The UFO paradigm is capable of manifesting itself in our environment as if it were really present; as if it were apparently an ordinary phenomenon, with all that this implies.
If we accept that we are dealing with a cognitive phenomenon that is expressed through individual involvement with witnesses, we will understand why there is so little narrative and aesthetic continuity from one incident to another.This is because continuity and homogeneity are not components of the intrinsic nature of the UFO phenomenon. In other words, the paradigm has neither a specific form nor a procedure to act premeditated. Everything arises at the very moment of contact between the external agent and the psyche of the witnesses.
Thus there is neither a before nor an after of a UFO encounter. Nothing remains beyond the duration of an experience, in the same way that the characters of a dream do not continue their life once we have awakened.
Until now, we have only been observing the modification of the same concept (extraterrestrial visitation) on infinite occasions. It is as if we had been exposed to a phenomenon that is mostly psychic and to a lesser extent physical, that starting from a basic skeleton (ideograms), has allowed witnesses (even if involuntarily) to modify their way of manifesting and acting (expressing themselves) in our environment. And that is why certain and specific witnesses have managed to interact to a greater degree with the paradigm and offer more complex, laborious, fantastic and detailed experiences than other individuals.
Only by understanding that we are dealing with experiences of individual character and significance, even if they affect half-worldly individuals, will we begin to get out of the loop. And it is very probable that the real objective of these manifestations is completely far from the pretensions and approaches exposed so far by the majority of UFO researchers.
Since we have confused the means of expression of the paradigm with the background of the problem, UFOs and their occupants are probably only "vehicles" for a better understanding of an expanded cognitive reality that we do not yet know how to interpret or decode.

UFOS are a surreal expression of a superior cognitive reality

Surrealism began to develop in Paris in 1924 with the publication of the "Surrealist Manifesto" by André Breton, "who believed that the post-war historical situation demanded a new art that delved into the deepest depths of the human being in order to understand man as a whole.” Breton said that surrealism: "is based on the belief in the superior reality of certain forms of association scorned until its appearance and on the free exercise of thought. It tends to destroy definitively all the remaining psychic mechanisms and to substitute them in the resolution of the main problems of life.”
The definition is clear: For the surrealists the work is born of pure automatism, that is to say, any form of expression in which the mind does not exercise any type of control. Surrealists try to capture by means of abstract or figurative symbolic forms the images of the deepest reality of the human being, the subconscious and the world of dreams. For which they use resources such as: animation of the inanimate, isolation of anatomical fragments, incongruent elements, metamorphosis, fantastic machines, relationships between nudes and machinery, evocation of chaos, representation of automatons, spasms and empty perspectives.
Hidden and forbidden thought will be a source of inspiration, in eroticism oneiric realities are discovered, and sex will be treated in an impudent way. They were also interested in the art of primitive peoples, the art of children and the insane. They will prefer long, ambiguous, mysterious titles, which means that the matter was more important than the realization itself.”
UFOs work in a similar way. It is some kind of higher expression of consciousness that has chosen a language that goes beyond the verbal and the everyday. The UFO phenomenon uses psychological springs of rupture with our ordinary reality to provoke a deeper look at the inside the human psyche. I am convinced that only the study of the existing relationship between the UFO paradigm and the psyche of the witnesses involved can lead us to the resolution of the enigma...

DISTORTION: TO THE ENCOUNTER OF A NEW COGNITIVE REALITY



If the UFO close encounters are the product of an elaborate "psychic architecture" arising from the bowels of the human psyche in collaboration with an unknown external agent, we could argue that everything visualized in a UFO experience, even though it may have a physical reality, is a kind of "induced lucid dream", where everything manifested, occupants of the flying saucers included, does not have a real and independent existence after this phenomenon occurs/finalize.
This means that the conversations with the UFO crew and the actions of these entities are only psychic elaborations arising from the joint interaction between the external agent and the unconscious of the witness. And this clearly indicates that we are not subject to manifestations (beings, gods, angels, demons...) that you want to manipulate us, or inculcate some kind of belief. We are being victims of an ancestral paradigm related to human consciousness, where the cultural filter influences is what is observed. But not from the point of view that psychiatry or psychology wants to indicate to us.
And it is that this phenomenon associated with the human psyche that is manifested/expressed through a chimerical visual scenography where the "inhabitants" of this other reality are actually springs and psychic mechanisms, like the characters of our dreams, that show us the existence of a cognitive universe, which is as real and transcendent, as the "Cartesian" universe that surrounds us.
Probably the current frontiers of our cognitive understanding are delimited by our inquisitorial and mechanistic way of understanding reality. Beyond the concepts widely accepted by our science, there is another dimension that connects us directly with an ancestral universe, where symbolic, atavistic and archetypal language connects us with nature and our primordial being.
It is very likely that shamanic initiations, the folklore of many peoples, religions and myths are based and built upon sporadic contacts with this new reality, where human psychic capacities are revealed in their fullest extent.
The revelations from this new reality are carried by "emissaries" emerging from the human collectivity itself and expressed in the symbolic language of dreams and creativity. The "labels/definitions" of these "entities/emisaries" (extraterrestrials, elves, fairies, angels, etc.) are produced and arise from our own unconscious participation in the elaboration of a "bridge" that introduces us to this new cognitive reality.
And it is precisely in this "bridge" where the "mundis imaginalis" originates that can take us to a knowledge that surpasses our understanding, or we can remain stagnant, ecstatic, elaborating artificial myths created from these "visions". The external agent is an intelligent "spring", a mechanism of a cosmic consciousness (collective unconscious?), a "boatman" who wants to take us to the other side of the shore, where perhaps many secrets of our own existence await.
So the close encounters with UFOs and other anomalous manifestations with different entities and creatures, would be nothing but "noise" caused by our own consciousness, which clouded by numerous sociocultural/religious/philosophical stereotypes create products from our own fear of this new mental stage, making us create a whole rich mythology in fantastic and unknown beings. As if the interferences of our contacts were the last reality expressed by this new universe.
Because our psyche when faced with this paradigm, in this bridge, is able to build (with a high degree of imagery and creativity) a new "parallel reality" that seems real and unquestionable. Without knowing that the true cognitive reality that awaits us on the other side is much more profound, wise and natural than we imagine.

DISTORTION THEORY: FROM THE GLOBAL TO THE INDIVIDUAL

If tomorrow a spaceship landed in the White House gardens before the target of thousands of smartphones, and the existence of extraterrestrial life was officially confirmed, it would be equally complex for us to explain the thousands of ufological incidents piled up by researchers in the last 7 decades. And the fact is that the UFO phenomenon presents several unknowns that are difficult to solve, even though we had on the table the certainty of extraterrestrial reality. Above all, because in their numerous appearances UFOs present aspects apparently irreconcilable with our science. Since they seem to be half physical and half psychic phenomena. As if they were manifesting in a blurred border between the real and the imaginary. And why do we say this? A multitude of reports illustrate the existence of, apparently, hundreds of alien races different in height, physical appearance, clothing, etc., in addition to a fleet of flying saucers of the most diverse and bizarre shapes and sizes. Not to mention an absurd and disconcerting behaviour shown on countless occasions by the elusive UFO crew who seem to be mad or have a great sense of humour. As if this intergalactic gibberish were not enough, ufologists have not been able to compose a global plot that can unite in a single and coherent story at least a dozen of these incidents. Not to mention the cases where extrasensory perceptions, telepathic contacts, strange dreams, paranormal phenomena, poltergeist, etc. are registered that completely blur our initial and simplistic perception of the question. It is as if the UFO phenomenon were restarted in each episode showing infinite and unpredictable variations of the same concept; alien visitation. But what are we dealing with? Are we dealing with extraterrestrial astronauts or, on the contrary, are we dealing with something else?
Dozens of researchers point out that the ufological paradigm has little or nothing to do with the hypothetical presence of aliens on our planet, and that the cases offer us a multitude of clues that indicate that the phenomenon has an extraordinary "psychological" component embedded in its bosom. And going deeper into this premise, the theory of distortion wants to go even further, dissecting the cases and trying to find hidden clues. And after a detailed analysis of hundreds of events, we have concluded that UFO appearances and close encounters are the product of an elaborate "psychic architecture" that arises as a consequence of the connection between an unknown external agent and the mind of witnesses. And as a result of this tuning, a three-dimensional image is "projected", indistinguishable from the reality that surrounds it, which contains all the elements described in a UFO encounter. Although we must be clear that most of this scenography would be constructed from the psychic material that the external agent extracts from the psyche of the observers (memories, hobbies, culture, etc.). Therefore, this would explain, from the outset, why most incidents are intangible and of ephemeral appearance, where the "occupants" and their "machines" leave no traces and can pass through the objects. UFO events are unpredictable beyond the basic skeleton that is recorded in almost all incidents; "something" will be seen in the sky, will land and from this "something" its occupants will descend. But little more can be anticipated, since the content of the experiences will be "aesthetically" different from one narrative to another, as the characters (humanoids, entities, occupants...) and objects (flying saucer, suits, pistols...) of the projection are transformed by the individual participation of each witness. So, as it is a projection "manufactured" at the very moment of the connection with the external agent, nothing that happened during an UFO experience obeys an empirical reality, nor does it have a physical continuity in our universe after the encounter has ended. In other words, the humanoids, the ship and the actions recorded in a ufological episode do not have a real existence, beyond their ephemeral presence during the projection before the witnesses. And, therefore, nothing reported will ever exactly repeat itself in another UFO event. Simply because nothing represented exists outside the "projection" created for the occasion. And in an upcoming UFO encounter, by changing the "source" (the witness) from which the main visual elements that make up the projection emerge, the experience is almost restarted from scratch.
The ufo researchers can only study the "during", since the "before" and "after" to the projection simply do not exist.  And it is because of this "psychic mechanism" that to date we have not been able to establish many solid conjectures about UFOs, since their action is spontaneous, not premeditated, and actually orchestrated, not by the phenomenon itself, but by the creativity of each witness who interacts with the external agent. Everything is "created" and "projected" at the very moment of the conjunction of the human psyche with this unknown detonator, from the aesthetics of the presumed aliens to their behaviour. In each ufological episode we witness the resumption of the concept of "extraterrestrial visitation" under the particular "optics" of each witness who modifies to infinity the internal skeleton that defines this paradigm (extraterrestrial ship and occupant).  And its markedly absurd component, baptized by the brilliant researcher Ignacio Darnaude as a "cosmic theatre", with actions and dialogues lacking in logic, would be the consequence of this shared mental creation in a process similar to the one reproduced during the stages of sleep. And they would have no other meaning beyond being products of an elaborate psychic process. Therefore, close encounters with UFOs are unpredictable phenomena. Therefore, it has been a crass error to analyze and compare the UFO casuistry as a whole, which clearly presents absurd and disconnected episodes, since the true meaning of these experiences can only be interpreted/decoded at an individual level, case by case, taking into account the unconscious influence of the witness in its conformation. Only by understanding that these are global experiences, but subjectivized by the active participation of the psyche of each witness, will we remove all mystery from these encounters.  The presence or non-presence of matter in incidents, which causes traces or quantifiable effects on the environment or people, would be determined by the capacity of each witness to "energize" his or her encounter so that parts of it were apparently real. In this way, understanding that observers participate very actively in those observed, as co-creators of the phenomenon, and that they are not mere spectators, it would be explained that, before the same elements put on stage, in some cases we find traces, footprints, burns, injuries, etc. and in others we do not. And what or who originates this phenomenon?
Regarding the origin of these manifestations, we can say that, over the centuries, under different labels, human beings have had various encounters with creatures, entities and unknown beings (daemons, angels, fairies, demons, monstrous creatures, etc.) that probably obey this same phenomenon, which has been modified over time. And this modification or evolution in its external appearance does not obey to a perfect camouflage of the phenomenon, but it is fruit of the own participation of the human being in its creation. Since it cannot be otherwise, all the apparitions, in their different contexts, are synchronic with the interests, advances and culture of the time. In the same way that the information obtained from these manifestations does not cease to be mere distortions of human concepts and ideas. The external agent serves as a perfect catalyst for our psyche to have sporadic "contacts" with another reality that escapes our ordinary senses. From those unexplored dimensions, which coexist with ours, the external agent would be trying through multiple and different contacts to communicate with human beings (individually) to show us dormant aspects of our consciousness, or perhaps just serve as a covert guide to a vast and unknown cognitive universe. But so far we are only perceiving the "interferences" caused by our uncontrolled immersion in this journey to the depths of the other side
