…."the ship appeared from behind us as
              we stood there. It made a turn at about 60 to 80 feet altitude
              above our heads, descended and hovered just above the ground,
              without touching it. It maintained like a foot of altitude above
              the ground without any type of landing gear, tripod, wheels or
              anything. We could hear a sound that didn't seem like it should be
              coming from a ship so large. We could see that the ship had like
              two levels or stories, one level a little smaller below and
              another larger one above. I (Iris) stayed in the lower level and
              did not see above."
              "Iris saw the ship arrive. She took out a
              cigarette and lighted it, very naturally. I told her I didn't
              think she should do that because they might not like it. Then she
              did not know what to do with the cigarette. In comparison I would
              say that the ship was a little larger than a truck or autobus,
              though of a very distinct form. We entered (the ship) up a ramp
              about eight feet long. We could see inside but nevertheless, it
              gave me the impression, or better, the sensation that my body
              passed through the body (transparent material, like glass) that
              was there. It was like I was going to collide with something but
              passed through It was like a window of crystal, which upon passing
              through, we felt a distinct atmosphere, almost like we were out of
              this world! I felt myself floating. I felt like my body did
              not weigh anything. My thoughts and ideas were of great intensity.
              When I looked back outside through the 'door,' it seemed as if it
              were a division between two worlds, very distinct and
              separate."
              Referring back to the extraterrestrials, they
              gave me the impression that there was not much physical difference
              between them and us, despite the fact that I had not seen them
              without those suits. They all looked to be of strong
              constitution. I got the bright idea that they covered their
              whole body, head and face with something as a protection for the
              walking ones that surrounded us, and it was that that made it
              difficult for me to see well their configuration."
              They were dressed in a suit of very special
              brilliance. It was the color of silver and reflected the lights
              around them. (Iris) They were not very tall. They were shorter
              than Filiberto and seemed to be light in weight. I saw four of
              them among whom there was a woman. I was only aware of this
              because of the form of her tightly fitted suit. The suit
              covered her whole body, and hands and feet, leaving only an
              aperture for the face, and it came down and covered half of the
              forehead. On the right side of the head for where the ear should
              be, they had a bulge in the suit like an audiophone, but inside
              the suit. From the nape of the neck to the bottom of the back near
              the waist, they had five cables or flexible transparent tubes,
              which did not impede their movement. Besides this they had other
              buttons and controls on the breast of the suit that could be
              operated by the alien being."
              
               
              "The face was normal, much like ours, but
              the eyes were elongated and had eyelashes like ours. I could not
              see the eyebrows. Either they were covered by the suit or they did
              not have any. The nose was smaller and a little flattened. The
              mouth was large and long without having much lip, or rather the
              lip was quite fine. They opened their mouth to talk but I could
              not hear their voice. The face ended in a small light beard."
              "On the suit, on the right breast, they
              had an emblem made up of a serpent in the form of an 'S' or maybe
              more like a 'Z' with rounded corners, with a wide 'X'-shaped cross
              lying down underneath. I could not see their hands because they
              were covered by the suit extending down over the fingers like a
              glove. They sneezed constantly. (They later explained that the
              sneezing was caused by the near presence of human beings.)"
              Iris Cardenas is still talking.
               
              "Inside the ship there was a sound
              something like that of parrots, a great number of parrots. I could
              hear them perfectly but I could not see them. They must have had
              several cages for them installed in this ship. (Iris did not
              connect the parrot sounds to the beings at that time. As an
              afterthought one wonders if that might not have been the language
              of the beings themselves.)
              "The extraterrestrials paid a great deal
              of attention to my painted nails, both fingers and toes. I was
              wearing sandals at the time. They looked at them constantly, my
              painted nails, that is. There was only one that spoke to me. He
              communicated mentally because I could not hear his voice. He spoke
              very fine and delicately to me. I felt very well with them, they
              did not frighten me. It seemed like I was floating and I felt very
              tranquil. Instead of feeling afraid and wanting to run, I, on the
              contrary felt peace and tranquility."
               
              "At a point I asked the one who talked to
              me if he would permit me to touch him. I was like St. Thomas in
              wanting to see for myself before believing and I wanted to touch
              him. He (the extraterrestrial) said to me, yes, that I could. He
              raised his right arm and I could see that he had a body under the
              suit. The suit material seemed to have a soft scaly texture."
              "In the lower level of the ship where I
              remained the whole time, there was a small cabin full of
              televisions in rows, one alongside another, many in double banks.
              There was a narrow seat with a high back, as if it were for the
              captain of the ship. It was very prominently placed. This seat
              rotated. There was another seat in which nobody was sitting and
              they seated me there. On that floor around me there were many
              small lights. When I sat down I observed the lights around my seat,
              which began to brighten in different colors. The white light to
              which we had become accustomed went out and I couldn't see it any
              more. The lights were clear and brightly transparent, such as
              nothing that we have here. The floor was made of a very strange
              material. It was not plastic, but it was a smooth flat material.
              It was of some kind of material completely unknown to us. Also it
              had various levels of elevation. I didn't see any walls as such.
              Everything was covered with apparatus or was 'windows.' Inside the
              ship one had the sensation of not standing on the floor, but more
              like he was floating. For the whole time I was there, some twenty
              minutes, I was conversing with them, but in a form very strange,
              not like I am talking to you now. The one who talked to me was
              sitting in the high seat in front of me, and as he spoke he looked
              at me intently. Filiberto was standing at one side on foot, though
              in a moment they took him to the upper level in the ship."
              "They, the extraterrestrials, walked very
              rapidly there inside the ship. You would see them there and then
              almost immediately they were here. The one in front of me smiled.
              They had a language of their own which they used to communicate
              between themselves. It sounded to me like they were talking in
              some kind of Arabic dialect. I did not understand them. They were
              very small. They smiled at me as they were saying, 'Be calm,
              nothing is going to happen to you.' In the conversation that I
              carried on with the one seated in front of me, in the high seat,
              he talked of LOVE, UNIVERSAL LOVE. He told me much about universal
              love. He said that they came on a mission to Earth and that they
              selected any person for contact simply by accident of time and
              place. These persons were subjected to a series of tests. If that
              person felt LOVE toward them, then they often continued the
              contact. But if, on the contrary, they did not feel any LOVE they
              did not contact them again."
              "They allowed the contactee to say that he
              had seen them (the extraterrestrials) without interfering with his
              memory. He said that they did not come to harm us and that they
              are messengers. They told me that this is the only way they can
              come here to Earth, without causing fear or panic. Many for this
              reason have been contacted only once. If the person contacted does
              not feel LOVE, or if he does not report his experience, or does
              not respond to the needs of others contacted, then they leave him.
              For that reason, they told me, there are here on the Earth, many
              who have been contacted only one time and no more. But if, on the
              oth~r hand, a person contacted comes to know them and does not
              fear, they often continue contacting him. At the same time they
              are studying the people. They bring many messages. For example:
              Cancer can be cured. They told me that the time
              has come. They are going to tell us with what we can cure cancer.
              It will come from a plant, the sap of a plant. Also they told me
              that we must make our lives more healthy. They say that we are
              very contaminated, that we do not have here a very healthy life.
              They do not want from us any goods of the Earth. They live more
              naturally than we do, and the suits and the tubes installed in
              them is to protect them from the contaminating Earth elements.
              They control everything with the power of the mind which, they
              told me, was of extreme importance. At a moment in the
              conversation I asked them, 'Why did you select my husband for this
              problem?' And they responded that any person here in the universe
              could be selected. Right now is a period of expe4mentation, but
              later, there will be millions who will see them. They do not want
              to endanger humanity. They come here to help us. We are super
              backward in everything, they say.
              "There exist other planets much advanced
              over us. In 1993, we Earth people will make contact with other
              planets ourselves. There we will be able to see the life and the
              advancements of the other planets."
              Then Filiberto Cardenas spoke to the
              investigators. "I can not repeat all that they told me aboard
              the ship, but they reaffirmed that they came to planet Earth to
              aid us in all they could, and very especially in all that related
              to health. They ratified their universal love concept. They do not
              come to endanger nor to conquer us, nor do they want to be
              recognized as saints or saviors. This has happened before. They
              say that they are beings of other dimensions, of other worlds, but
              that they are not gods, and they do not want to be considered such.
              They do not want to be attacked. They are wanting me to be one who
              talks to the public about these messages, messages designed to
              prepare for the coming of them on Earth. These messages have been
              given to six other people of Earth who have been contactees of
              this kind or will be contacted soon. I do not know for sure
              whether these over six are abductees or whether they are being
              contacted mentally to receive the messages. I have the impression
              that some are abductees, having the opportunity to see and feel
              directly the same as I."
              "Among the things that I was told was an
              assurance that women will rise to important positions in our
              society. It is to be
              that many women throughout this Earth will rise
              to high positions in politics as well as in business. There will
              be a tendency to defer to and to vote for women in those positions
              with the hope of a change, and to see if the world can grow up.
              This tendency, the extraterrestrials see in the very near future."
              "When they come to make definite official
              contact with us, the illnesses will be something of the past. The
              sick will be cured easily. The state of anxiety, our preoccupation
              of mind, is precisely for the moment of evolution in which we are
              living. In actuality this is one of the worst illnesses. The
              excessive preoccupation with material existence, without feeding
              the spiritual, produces the immense majority of the illnesses.
              Preoccupations such as fear of illness in us, produces illness.
              Fear that something will occur produces illnesses, and fear in
              general, of many things, produces premature aging. They told me
              that we, in a period very near, and after their coming, will
              undergo radical changes. Some people who already have been
              contacted, and who possess certain powers, could live easily more
              than a hundred years. Perhaps even to a hundred and ninety years.
              At first certain people with psychic faculties and strong spirits
              capable of assimilating knowledge and controlling their emotions
              could live even up to three hundred years."
              "They possess great destructive power
              through their scientific advancement, but they told me that they
              have no desire to destroy us. They live looking for and giving
              LOVE. The Pope who is now in the Vatican (Pope John Paul) is one
              of those contacted by them. The function of this Pope is to
              evangelize throughout all corners of the Earth, or at least that
              is what he is trying to do. What the Pope is going to do, what he
              has done, and what he is doing is of great importance."
              "After my abduction I received the help of
              distinct religious groups, and all of them asked me, what is the
              message for humanity. And they all were pleased when I told them,
              but more so that the extraterrestrials spoke of universal love.
              The pope is one of those most greatly worried about the lack of
              love at these times in this world."
              "I believe at this time that those who
              believe in God do not have to look in others or elsewhere for Him
              but within themselves. If they have faith, God is within them.
              Christ is within every person. Here is where you have to look for
              it. The Pope is a beacon of light for humanity. Not only for
              Catholics, but for all, including the atheists. Those who desire
              to have a change in the world should heed the gestures of the
              Pope."
              "Before this I worked excessively, working
              with the logical
              aspiration that any person could achieve a good
              social position. I must confess that I did not dedicate enough
              time to the questions of spirituality and aid to less fortunate
              people. Or rather that I gave a little love to all those people
              who did not need it. I believe that the whole world must begin to
              give more LOVE. Not only to the man in the street, but to begin
              with your parents, your children, your families and friends. LOVE
              must begin in the family, which is the base of our heritage, and
              radiate out from there. I ask of all who hear me that they give
              more time to LOVE that inspires love in humanity. This is how we
              will achieve our majority sufficiently great in this system in
              which we are living at this time."
